Chloe Valdary concludes this terrific piece by saying, “It is of course your prerogative to continue to utilize platitudes for your cause. You are entirely within your rights to chant words like ‘equality’ ‘justice’ and ‘freedom fighter.’ You can keep using those words for as long as you like. But I do not think you […]
Netanyahu: “No international pressure will prevent us from acting with all power”
It is good that he said this. For decades now, Islamic supremacists, jihadists, and their Leftist allies have brought tremendous pressure to bear upon Israel to get it to end defensive measures prematurely. For years now, this has worked quite well. But now, perhaps because Netanyahu knows that Obama is not in his corner and […]
India’s Supreme Court: Islamic courts have no legal authority in India
This is a good, common-sense decision: there should be one legal code that applies to all citizens, with no special rights for particular groups or parallel legal systems. Introducing parallel systems inevitably leads to a conflict of authority between the two legal codes, as we are beginning to see, and will soon see much more […]
Rolling Stones’ Ronnie Wood: Bob Dylan told us to come to Israel
While the BDS movement and Pink Floyd’s execrable Roger Waters tried to intimidate the Stones into cancelling their stop in Tel Aviv, one artist was clear-sighted and noble, and encouraged them to go there. “Rolling Stones’ Ronnie Wood: Dylan told us to come to Israel,” by David Brinn, Jerusalem Post, May 27, 2014: Ronnie Wood, […]
NBC’s David Gregory slams Tony Blair over Islamic terrorism: Didn’t you and Bush make it worse?
Blair responds: “It’s not coming from us. It’s coming from this ideology, and we aren’t going to defeat it until we liberate ourselves from the attitude that somehow we’re the cause of it.” Blair sounds as if he is finally getting realistic about the jihad threat — far too late to make a serious difference […]
Muslim father ordered to leave Canada after choking and threatening his daughter
An earlier NTV report stated that Khalaf Alshaek threatened his daughter for marrying a non-Muslim, but this report suggests that what enraged him was simply that she married without his knowledge. In any case, this was an Islamic honor killing in the making. Note that the Judge Walsh cites “cultural differences,” but does not allow […]
Ms. Magazine posts Islamorealistic satirical magazine cover
It never mentions Islam, of course, but model is wearing a hijab, and the reference to Yemen makes it clear that someone at Ms. is aware that child marriage is a phenomenon that is, if not uniquely Islamic, at least something that enjoys broad sanction within the Islamic world. This is about as close as […]
Israeli army sees rise in Christian recruits
This is a most positive development. Although Jews and Christians face the same fate under Islamic law — subjugation as dhimmis and denial of basic rights — the unhappy history of Christian anti-Semitism and the near-universal denial of the reality of the Islamic jihad, among innumerable other factors, have prevented the formation of any large-scale […]
Israel: Arab lawmaker asks Pope to stop Christian enlistment in IDF
It’s odd that Basel Ghattas, who is himself a Christian, would want to stop Christians from enlisting in the IDF, when he himself is a member of the Knesset. Shouldn’t he be loyal to the State of Israel, and want to see it defended? And why does he think that the Pope would take an […]
NJ judge rules NYPD didn’t discriminate against Muslims with counter-terror surveillance
This lawsuit was a craven attempt to end NYPD counter-terror efforts. If it had succeeded, it would have given a green light to Islamic jihad activity, with the NYPD handcuffed and unable to do anything to stop jihad terror plots. Judge William Martini ruled in favor of common sense: “The police could not have monitored […]
