From this report, police seem more eager to probe the allegations of proselytizing than to track down the attackers. “Faisalabad: Islamic extremists attack Christian community, two faithful injured,” from Asia News February 23: Faisalabad (AsiaNews / Agencies) – A dozen armed Muslims stormed the Grace Ministry Church in Faisalabad, seriously wounding two Christians.

Afghanistan demands NATO adopt Sharia, put Qur’an-burners on trial — Karzai says NATO agrees
What could the charge possibly be? Whoever did it didn’t break any law except Sharia, which NATO has not (yet) adopted. And that’s what this whole controversy is really all about: it’s another Islamic supremacist attempt to force non-Muslims to abide by Sharia provisions. “Afghanistan demands NATO put Koran-burners on trial,” by Mirwais Harooni and […]
Obama apologizes to Afghans for violating Sharia provisions regarding Qur’an
Obama paused for a moment from trying to force the Catholic Church to deny its teachings to assure the Afghan people that the U.S. would strictly abide by Sharia provisions regarding the handling of the Qur’an. Maybe if Roman Catholics regularly flew into violent rages when their religious sensibilities were insulted, they wouldn’t be in […]
Australian honor killing: “The woman told the court her father said he was not a man if he did not teach his family a lesson and he swore on the Koran that he would kill them”
Yet another inconvenient incident for those who wish to deny any Islamic connection to honor killing. That denial can only result in more girls being murdered, because no one is calling upon Muslim communities anywhere to do anything to combat the attitudes and beliefs that give rise to this phenomenon. “Father whipped family, daughter tells […]
Sharia in Pennsylvania: Muslim admits to attacking atheist over “Zombie Muhammad”; Muslim judge dismisses case, tells atheist he’d be killed in Muslim lands
This is enforcement of Sharia in a Pennsylvania court. The attacker supposedly got off because he “is an immigrant and claims he did not know his actions were illegal, or that it was legal in this country to represent Muhammad in any form. To add insult to injury, he also testified that his 9 year […]
Iran: UN inspectors throw up….
… their hands. In exasperation. Shockingly, they were denied access to one of Iran’s most top-secret nuclear facilities. The one that makes, uh, space-age teddy bears and not weapons. That one. “UN Inspectors in Iran Throw Up Their Hands,” from the Atlantic Wire, February 22: It’s official: The United Nations nuclear inspections many thought Iran […]
Shocker: Islamic parties in Tunisia and Egypt signal bigger role for Sharia
We tried to tell you: “first signs show they want more religion than previously admitted.” “Tunisia, Egypt Islamists signal bigger religion role,” from Reuters, February 22: After months of reassuring secularist critics, Islamist politicians in Tunisia and Egypt have begun to lay down markers about how Muslim their states should be — and first signs […]
Afghanistan: 2 U.S. troops killed, 4 wounded by Afghan soldier, reportedly over latest round of Qur’an Rage
A murderer found his excuse. As with the rampages reported earlier, such incidents would not happen without pre-existing dysfunction within the society: the inclination and the understanding that it would be ok to kill, or to destroy property, or generally to wallow in collective rage in the event of certain insults or offenses. This is […]
Iraq: Rapid-fire series of attacks kills 55
Perhaps al-Qaeda, the likely suspect whenever closely coordinated, multiple attacks occur, is considering al-Shabaab’s strategy in trying to leverage the Somali famine to its purposes, and Boko Haram’s sustained campaign of destruction in Nigeria: ruling over an empty country with no people left who can stand or survive it would be so much easier. Failing […]
Muslim fired from British Airways after his close ties with jihad terror plotter were discovered now claiming he was fired for being a Muslim
Clearly firing someone who corresponded frequently with, gave money to, a socialized with a jihad terrorist, and who was listening to speeches by Osama bin Laden and Anwar al-Awlaki, could clearly only have been motivated by “Islamophobia.” Jaw-Dropping Chutzpah Alert: “BA baggage handler ‘who was groomed to be a terrorist’ claims he was sacked for […]
