Can the Toronto District School Board point to any […]
Pakistan: Islamic supremacists attack seven women with acid in two days — one “deserved for her face to be ruined because she had not covered her head”
Woman with head uncovered: sin. Destroying that woman’s life and seriously injuring her by spraying acid in her face because her head is uncovered: not a sin. “Acid attacks: 7 women burned in two days,” by Shamsul Islam in the Express Tribune, September 18 (thanks to all who sent this in): FAISALABAD: A total of […]
Two American universities teach journalists how to be even more obsequious and fawning towards Islam and Muslims
These courses are predicated on the assumption that Muslims and Islam are getting negative press coverage. That is, of course, howlingly absurd.

Maldives criminalizes preaching of any religion other than Islam
This is the other side of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation’s ongoing efforts to compel the West to criminalize “defamation of religion” — that is, realistic and truthful portrayals of Islam.
