Saudis deport Christian pastor to Eritrea, where he could be executed
Christian proselytizing is a capital offense under Islamic law. “Riyadh deports a pastor to Eritrea where he could get the death penalty,” from Asia News, July 23 (thanks to C. Cantoni): Jeddah (AsiaNews/Agencies) — Eyob Mussie, a Christian refugee in Saudi Arabia, was told that he would be forcibly repatriated to Eritrea where he could […]
In Taliban’s jihad, children continue to be bargaining chips and disposable tools for exploitation
The Taliban have tried and succeeded in using child suicide bombers. Some, they have begun training as young as the age of three. They have no qualms about killing children outright when they believe the jihad stands to gain. That is their only rule of engagement. This is a group in which the West hopes […]
Al-Shabaab jihadists preventing aid from reaching 2.2 million Somalis
According to al-Shabaab, there’s no famine. And that’s that. There are surely some macabre calculations on the part of the jihadists: fewer people to fight and control, and fewer people with the physical wherewithal even to complain. They will starve the country to starve out the resistance to their taking over. “Al-Shabab prevents aid from […]
Malaysian Islamic scholar says the use of “Allah” for “God” in Malay-language Bibles “must be abandoned because it erroneously represents the two religions as equal”
That Islamic supremacist impulse is at the heart of the dispute over Malay-speaking Christians’ use of the Arabic loanword “Allah” for “God.” Qur’an 29:46 says “Our Allah and your Allah is One, and unto Him we surrender,” but it is a talking point for Islamic proselytizing, and a one-way line of discourse in a manner […]
Nigeria: Boko Haram jihadists target traditional ruler
Boko Haram’s attacks are consistently quite focused, targeting specific practices and institutions that stand in opposition to their intentions to impose Sharia law, the goal of jihad in all its forms. “Bomb rocks troubled northeastern Nigerian city,” by Ibrahim Mshelizza for Reuters, July 22: MAIDUGURI, Nigeria (Reuters) – Several people were wounded in a bomb […]
The blame game
Norway’s Aftenposten is blaming me, Bat Ye’or and Fjordman for Breivik’s mass murders — as if killing a lot of children aids the defense against the global jihad and Islamic supremacism, or has anything remotely to do with anything we have ever advocated. For that matter, no one has explained or can explain how this […]
UK: Misunderstanders of Islam chanting “Allah, Allah” brutally beat Sikh man
Honest Ibe Hooper or Boy Reza Aslan or some such genius should go explain to Moshin Khan and his fellow gang members about “Islamic tolerance.” “Sikh man ‘was beaten up by gang in street,’” from the Leicester Mercury, July 21 (thanks to Pamela Geller): A Sikh man told a jury he was beaten up by […]
Who added “Christian” and “Conservative” to Norway shooter’s Facebook page yesterday?
Pamela Geller has noticed an interesting anomaly: While the leftist and Islamic supremacist ghouls rush to portray Norway mass murderer Anders Behring Breivik as a Christian and even as an anti-jihadist, the unanswered questions multiply. Why did a jihad group take credit for the atrocities, and then retract? And who altered the murderer’s Facebook page? […]
Pakistan: Sunnis murder Shi’ite doctor
The Shi’ite Ahlul Bayt News Agency calls Dr. Abid Hussain a martyr. If his Sunni murderers had been killed in the process of murdering him, would they be martyrs also? I suppose it would depend on whether one asked a Sunni or a Shi’ite authority. Sunni/Shi’ite Jihad Update: “Pakistani Shia Dr Abid Hussain Martyred in […]
