UK: 72-year-old Muslim jailed for grooming, repeatedly raping nine-year-old girl

By

Where did Mohammed Dauhoo get the idea that this was acceptable behavior? Could it have been from the accounts of the life of the man for whom he was named, Muhammad, the prophet of Islam? Few things are more abundantly attested in Islamic law than the permissibility of child marriage. Islamic tradition records that Muhammad’s […]

UK judge says woman sexually assaulted by Muslim migrant was “foolish” for drinking too much

By

“Sentencing Alanezy, Mr Justice Gilbart said there was no excuse for the attack but people had to take responsibility for their safety when on nights out.” This is indeed so, since the British government has filled the country with young Muslims such as Yaqoob Alanezy. The Qur’an says: “O Prophet, tell your wives and your […]

Netherlands: Government-funded watchdog says it’s ok for Muslims to send death threats to gays

By

“The disgraceful stance came to light when a member of the public complained about death threats posted to an online forum which called for homosexuals to be ‘burned, decapitated and slaughtered.’” Yet this “anti-discrimination watchdog” refused to pursue the case, writing: “The remarks must be seen in the context of religious beliefs in Islam, which […]

Here in Rüdesheim they arrogantly intruded upon a Christmas market, setting up an information booth […]

“Kiemunki requested a police investigation to quell claims that a blog post she wrote claiming that all Muslims are terrorists was racist. However police pressed charges and a Tampere court found her guilty of the offence.” But she doesn’t seem to have actually claimed that all Muslims were terrorists, but only to have criticized Islam: […]

Tunisian President: “Tunisia is determined to prove that Islam is not incompatible with democracy”

By

This will be a tall order, given that the only stable, functioning democracy that has ever existed in a majority-Muslim country was in Turkey, and that one was founded as a direct and explicit rejection of political Islam, and is being slowly and steadily dismantled by an authoritarian ruler who believes in political Islam. So […]

European Commission top dog: “We must distinguish between Islam and terrorism”

By

Great idea! Now if we can just convince the terrorists themselves to do this. “No religion would do that,” the soldier said, pointing to the badly vandalised church. “They’re terrorists.” Why virtually everyone feels the need to cover for and burnish the image of Islam remains unexplained, but superficially this soldier, and Ján Figeľ, seem […]

UK: Muslim teacher condones Charlie Hebdo jihad massacre in classroom

By

Hamza Jalal Tariq, 28, effectively said during a lesson that the victims murdered by Islamist gunmen “should be killed for insulting the prophet.” Of course, he attempted to lie about it, which is routine for Islamic supremacists. Tariq should not only be fired, but charged with inciting violence. The imposition of blasphemy laws is already […]
