Apparently Muhammad Mudassir murdered his sister not because she had done anything wrong, but because he was denied an agreed-upon marriage with the ten-year-old sister of his sister’s husband. Muslims commit 91 percent of honor killings worldwide. A manual of Islamic law certified as a reliable guide to Sunni […]
Pakistan detains Muslim leader for “spreading terrorism in the name of jihad”
The distinction between terrorism and jihad is exceedingly fine, especially in light of these Qur’an passages: “We will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve for what they have associated with Allah of which He had not sent down authority.

Pakistani government sends text to millions warning against posting “blasphemous content”
In the free West, we don’t prosecute those who are considered to have blasphemed Islam. We just brand them as “Islamophobes” and stigmatize and demonize them.

Pakistan PM accused of taking money from bin Laden to fund jihad in Kashmir
There is nothing implausible about this. The Pakistani army is supporting anti-India jihadist groups. The Pakistani government is sheltering al-Qaeda top dog Zawahiri.

Pakistan: Three burqa-clad sisters shoot and kill man after accusing him of blasphemy
“The women, in their statement to police, alleged that Abbas had committed blasphemy in 2004, but ‘we couldn’t kill him at the time because we were too young then.’” That’s patience. That’s dedication. In the West, counterterror analysts have frequently claimed that this war could take ten years or more. They haven’t reckoned on jihadi […]
Pakistan: Teen girl forced into sex slavery, then murdered by Muslim brother for “illicit relationships with some men”
