Tunisia: Court charges blogger with “inciting hatred between religions” for parody of Qur’an
Yet another glimpse into the future of the U.S. This can’t happen here, you say? We respect the freedom of speech, you say? Maybe that was true at one time, but it is no longer. Cowardice is pandemic. Newspapers all over the country refused to republish the notorious Muhammad cartoons out of a newfound “respect” […]
NBC correspondent explains “Allahu akbar”: Terrorists have “stolen the phrase from those who practice Islam”
The phrase "Allahu Akbar" has been sometimes uttered by those committing terror attacks who have stolen the phrase from those who practice Islam which loosely translated means "God is great". — Tom Winter (@Tom_Winter) June 6, 2020 What are jihad terrorists, then, if they have “stolen the phrase from those who practice Islam”? Methodists? Media […]
“Palestinian” Islamic scholars say new law imposing harsh penalties for domestic abuse is un-Islamic
Of course. The Qur’an teaches that men are superior to women and should beat those from whom they “fear disobedience”: “Men have authority over women because Allah has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because Allah […]
Indonesia: Muslim brothers hack their 16-year-old sister to death with machete for having sexual relations
There is no justification for a 45-year-old man having sex with a 16-year-old girl. But there is likewise no justification for murdering the 16-year-old girl. The article below says that it is unusual for this to happen in Indonesia, but given the sanction honor killing has in Islamic law, it’s not all that surprising. According […]
Germany: Muslim migrant murders his wife, had already murdered another wife in the Netherlands
A culture of violence, the foundational text of which commands men to beat women from whom they “fear disobedience” (Qur’an 4:34), is going to give rise to this sort of thing, just as that same foundational text’s calls for violence against unbelievers (2:191, 4:89, 9:5, 9:29, 47:4, etc.) are going to give rise to jihad […]
Charles De Foucauld, Who Took Islam’s Measure, To Be Canonized (Part 2)
Charles de Foucauld, a Catholic priest who is about to be canonized by the Vatican, spent much of his adult life living alone among Muslims, first among Arabs in Morocco, and then among Tuaregs in Algeria.

“What happened to your hair?” “Your Algerians, your good Muslims there, they burned my hair!”
Amid riots and mass hysteria over “systemic racism” in the U.S. that doesn’t exist, here is some real racism in Algeria, as told by its victim. “Aïcha, 28 years old,” translated from “Aïcha, 28 ans,” Goethe-Institut, May 6, 2020 (thanks to Elina): I have been living in Constantine for 6 years. I came from Mali […]
Turkey’s coast guard again escorts illegal Muslim migrants into Greek waters
A hostile power committing a hostile act. But European authorities will side with Turkey and welcome these Muslim migrants. What could possibly go wrong? Nothing bad could result from welcoming in large numbers of people with a radically different view of how society should be ordered, many of whom being determined to replace the one […]
What Is To Be Done About the Left’s Anti-Americanism?
My latest in PJ Media: The murder of George Floyd, as everyone knows, was only a pretext for the riots that have now taken several lives and caused billions of dollars in property damage. Their seeds were planted decades ago. And now the question before us, if we wish to preserve the United States as […]
