High culture: The infamous Palestinian art exhibit celebrating the Sbarro pizzeria jihad mass murder This makes sense. After all, the Palestinians have contributed so much to world culture: children’s shows celebrating jihad murder, jihad/martyrdom suicide bombers blowing people up on buses and in restaurants — it’s a veritable cornucopia of cultural and artistic achievement. “Palestine […]

Gingrich: Obama’s policies leading to “anti-Christian spring”
Obama’s policies in this regard are a continuation and expansion of his predecessor’s, in which the fate of Christians of the Middle East is acceptable collateral damage in a region-wide adventure in fantasy-based policy-making. Washington appears to allow them to be treated worse rather than risk being seen as showing partiality. That could lose “hearts […]
Jihad Jane plot details revealed: recruited men online to “wage violent jihad” in south Asia and Europe
American and Irish misunderstanders of Islam came together over Motoon rage, and plotted murder to defend their religion and prophet. Here again, it is odd how those who consider themselves to be most devout and active in the defense of Islam are those who tend to violence; this is never, ever explained by those who […]
The jihad against Walid Phares
Walid Phares and I have long admired one another’s work. He said of my 2005 bestseller The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades) that it was “a “˜politically incorrect” but academically sound and challenging work. Spencer displays an enormous amount of well-researched material. He throws the ball back into the camp of Arabist […]
U.K.: Muslim protesters force their way into MP’s meeting after Muslims Against Crusades posts press release declaring “you have been targeted”
That press release, entitled “MP Mike Freer – You have been targeted,” which is also linked at the bottom of this report, and still turns up in Google search results, has since been taken down (this was the original link) and replaced by a release with a softer tone — we wonder why. At the […]
Haqqani network, which Pakistan refuses to confront, blamed in Kabul suicide attack on NATO bus
As of last month, Pakistan had decided not to undertake an operation against the Haqqanis for the time being, likely hoping to continue delaying until right around the time the ski slopes open in Jahannam. Speaking of unpleasantly elevated temperatures, the U.S. has reportedly rewarded Pakistan’s intransigence by “warming” to the idea of negotiating with […]
Scapegoat found: Egyptian military jails dissident blogger in “investigation” of its own massacre of Christian protesters
It was reported earlier this month that the Egyptian military was taking over the investigation of its massacre of Christian protesters from a civilian prosecutor, and Human Rights Watch has warned of an impending cover-up. The inversion of well-documented reality described in this report alone puts Orwell’s Minitrue to shame. “Egypt military jails dissident over […]
Bombs at Baghdad music shop kill 32, wound 71
Muhammad said: “Allah Mighty and Majestic sent me as a guidance and mercy to believers and commanded me to do away with musical instruments, flutes, strings, crucifixes, and the affair of the pre-Islamic period of ignorance.” And not just by asking nicely. “Death toll in Baghdad’s twin bombings rises to 32,” from the Associated Press, […]
Mali: Lawmaker known for criticizing country’s inaction against al-Qaeda stopped in traffic and warned to be quiet
“They told me to stop talking or they would take the necessary measures. I told them they might as well do whatever they have planned because there is no way I am going to stop.” “Mali lawmaker tells of threats over al-Qaida talk,” by Martin Vogl for the Associated Press, October 30: BAMAKO, Mali (AP) […]
Egypt: Muslim students murder Christian classmate for wearing a crucifix
Everyone knew it, but no one spoke up, because they were afraid. Islamic Tolerance Alert: “Coptic Christian Student Murdered By Classmates for Wearing a Cross,” from AINA, October 30 (thanks to Pamela Geller): In mid-October Egyptian media published news of an altercation between Muslim and Christian students over a classroom seat at a school in […]
