If the Saudis allowed women in the Olympics, there would exist the horrendous prospect that people might, you know, see them. Maybe even without niqabs. Not to mention the need for elaborate chaperoning and possibly futile attempts to avoid interaction with unrelated men. Otherwise, if you allow women into the Olympics, they will have sex. […]

Report: U.S. officials believe Iran sanctions will fail, leaving military option
The world has seen at least five years of kicking the can down the road on the Iranian nuclear program, in a long cycle of imposing incrementally tougher sanctions, waiting, getting a report, noting noncompliance, and imposing more sanctions. There virtually appeared to be an official policy of procrastination and denial until last fall, when […]
Iranian news agency whips up “Islamophobia” hysteria by claiming that tasting wine and pork required for graduation in Denmark
Editor: So, are you still a journalist or a novelist? Tom Friend: Same thing out here…. Editor: Make something out of it. And if you can’t do that, sir, then make it up! — From the cinematic classic Masked and Anonymous The victimhood industry is big business. It stirs up resentment against the West, deflects […]
NYPD monitored Muslim students all over Northeast, Muslim Brotherhood-linked MSA and media enablers in uproar
The Muslim Students Association is a Muslim Brotherhood group. The NYPD was monitoring it. So what? As long as no Constitutional protections were genuinely violated, the NYPD is just doing its job. The purpose of articles like this is to stop them from doing that job, which will have the effect, intended or not, of […]
Afghan bride burns herself in protest of domestic violence
Unfortunately, her dramatic protest will likely be in vain. The Qur’an says: “Good women are obedient….As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them” (4:34). Her protest will not change the respect accorded to that directive. “Afghan bride burns herself in protest of domestic violence,” […]
Muslims from UK, including converts, misunderstand Islam and travel to Somalia to wage jihad
Britain’s newest and proudest export: mujahedin. The Muslims from the U.K. who are fighting in Somalia are the glorious fruits of multiculturalist relativism, unrestricted immigration, and the inability or unwillingness of British authorities to confront the prevalence of the jihad doctrine among Muslims in the U.K. “British Muslims recruited to fight for ‘al-Qaeda’ in Somalia,” […]
Architect for Pakistani spy service ISI designed bin Laden compound
Still more evidence of how reliable an ally Pakistan has been. But there is no cause for concern in Karachi: nothing will stop the money flow from Washington. “ISI employed architect for bin Laden compound: Report,” from the Press Trust of India, February 18 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): Washington: An architect regularly employed […]
Pennsylvania: Muslim leaders threaten Muslim business owners with boycott if they don’t stop selling alcohol, tobacco and pork
So terribly, terribly haram Whatever the cogency of their moral critique of alcohol and tobacco, these Muslim leaders are pushing for a solution that is characteristically Islamic: instead of working to teach Muslim youth self-control and the virtues of avoiding drinking, smoking and drug use, they want to make it impossible for them to fall […]
Director of National Intelligence says Al-Qaeda infiltrating Syrian opposition
Considering that this comes from Clueless Clapper, who believes that the Muslim Brotherhood is “largely secular,” it will need independent verification, but given the character of the Islamic supremacist “Arab Spring” uprisings thus far, there is nothing implausible about it. “Al-Qaeda infiltrating Syrian opposition, U.S. officials say,” by Greg Miller for the Washington Post, February […]
Islamic supremacists threaten to murder Muslim Brotherhood Nobel Peace Prize winner for blasphemy
What will her Brotherhood colleagues think? Will Karman’s champions in the West speak out against this barbarity, or would doing so entangle them in “Islamophobia”? “Yemen Nobel laureate gets death threat,” from DPA, February 17 (thanks to Pamela Geller): Sana’a – Yemeni Nobel Peace laureate Tawakkul Karman has received a death threat from Muslim militants […]
