Poor Mohammad Shafia can’t catch a break. First, his first wife and daughters die in a tragic accident that just happens — pure coincidence! — to show all the signs of an Islamic honor killing, and now this, which won’t help his Poor Victimized Man of Peace act one bit. “Shafia trial to resume after […]
Montreal: Muslim kindergartner permitted to block out music
“I find it sad for the child and the teacher, who may have to redesign her teaching program as a result.” Of course. When in Muslim countries, one must abide by Islamic mores. When in non-Muslim countries, one must abide by Islamic mores. Noting that Islamic law forbids musical instruments and music itself except in […]
Are Muslims in a situation comparable to that of the Jews just before the Holocaust?
Michael Coren demolishes this increasingly common theme, which I discussed here.
Canada: “Muslims are going through that situation right now that the Jews faced before the Holocaust”
Remember all those Jewish terror plots? Jews shouting “Shema Yisrael” as they blew themselves up in crowds of non-Jews and flew planes into buildings? Remember those captured internal documents of Jewish organizations saying they were working toward “eliminating and destroying Western civilization from within” so that “the religion of Moses was victorious over other religions”? […]
Canada imam: “What’s called honour killing is not part of Islamic teaching or tradition, and in fact there is no honour in this killing at all”
The usual Useful Idiots are very excited about this, but here again, deception is not reform. Samy Metwally says that “what’s called honour killing is not part of Islamic teaching or tradition, and in fact there is no honour in this killing at all.” But that is simply not true. It is no accident or […]
Canada-based Misunderstander of Islam indicted in U.S. for role in jihad martyrdom suicide bombing that murdered five soldiers
Will the Islamophobia never end? “Canadian indicted in U.S. for allegedly aiding suicide bomb plot that killed five soldiers,” from Postmedia News, December 9 (thanks to all who sent this in): An Edmonton man has been charged with aiding in the murder of five American soldiers in a suicide-bomb attack in Iraq in April 2009. […]
Canada: Feminists back Islamic idea of women as possessions of men
I have taken feminists to task more than once not only for their failure to stand up for Muslim women, but for their active excuse-making for the oppression of those women. See, for example, my article in FrontPage, “Feminists Betray Muslim Women,” on how the feminist writer Laura Briggs justifies the oppression of Muslim women. […]
Ontario: Cartoon on mosque door has Muslims “stressed and fearful,” prompts hate crime investigation
Now lampooning Qur’an-burning is "Islamophobic": this is getting confusing The endless search for hate crimes that will enable Islamic supremacists to portray themselves as victims takes an absurd turn in Ontario: someone taped a cartoon criticizing Qur’an-burning to the door of a mosque, and the poor Muslims inside are traumatized. Imagine the fear that would […]
That’ll fix it: U.S., U.K., and Canada announce more sanctions against Iran
The never-ending cycle of incrementally more restrictive sanctions against Iran will not end in Iranian cooperation, transparency, or the halting of its nuclear program. It will end in an Iranian nuclear test, followed by a war of endless finger-pointing in the West over how it could ever have happened and why firmer action was not […]
Study: 62% of Muslims in Canada want some form of Sharia
Sharia is a package deal. Even Imam Rauf knows that. “Just a little” Sharia is a temporary condition on the way to having more, and the “jurisdictional creeping” seen in Britain’s Sharia courts is a prominent demonstration that this remains the case even in the West. To their credit, Muslim women fought in 2005 to […]
