In the “holy” Islamic month of Ramadan, a 14-year-old Christian girl, Myra Shebaz, was abducted by a group of Muslim men led by a man named Muhammad Naqash in Pakistan’s Faisalabad.

New York Times Blames Hindu Caste System for Discrimination Against Christians in Pakistan
My latest at PJ Media: The New York Times generally ignores the global persecution of Christians, but a notable exception came Monday, when the Gray Lady published an article entitled “Sewer Cleaners Wanted in Pakistan: Only Christians Need Apply.” But the Times remains committed, like all of the establishment media, to ignoring or downplaying incidents […]
Pakistan: Muslim cleric touts use of coronavirus aid to convert Christians to Islam
It’s the same story in every one of these cases.

Pakistani Taliban: Jews have unleashed “virus war” to advance scheme for global governance

Pakistan Human Rights Commission: Hindus and Christians “have been complaining of forced conversions”
Islamic tolerance. The Qur’an says “There is no compulsion in religion” (2:256). However, what constitutes “compulsion” is in the eye of the beholder.

Indiana Congressman linked to Muslim Brotherhood slams Indian Prime Minister, says “my heart remains with Kashmir”
The Muslim Brotherhood has for a considerable period infiltrated the Democratic Party.
