It turns out that NPR fired Williams after CAIR sent out a national press release in which CAIR National Executive Director Nihad Awad said this about Williams’ statements: “Such irresponsible and inflammatory comments would not be tolerated if they targeted any other racial, ethnic or religious minority, and they should not pass without action by […]
Niqab-clad “journalist” at the Huffington Post sneers at idea that Sharia is creeping into American society
What Sharia? No Sharia here!

Muslims tell kangaroo court that Wilders is dangerous, ask for protection from him
Remind me again: which buildings did Wilders take down with those hijacked airplanes? Which Muslim filmmaker’s throat did he cut on an Amsterdam street? I keep forgetting. “Wilders is dangerous, Muslims tell court,” from Expatica, October 18: Muslims told judges trying anti-Islam MP Geert Wilders for hate speech Monday that he was dangerous, dividing a […]
New York town won’t shut down Muslim graveyard, but won’t say it’s legal, either
This looks as if what the town officials are most afraid of is being accused of “Islamophobia.” And so they’re allowing an illegal graveyard that they would almost certainly stop if any other group were behind it. “NY town won’t shut down Muslim graveyard,” from AP, October 14 (thanks to Twostellas): […] Tom Schimmerling, lawyer […]
Islamic supremacist Ground Zero mega-mosque developers, out of ideas, haul out “bigotry” charge against opponents for 10000th time
“Blind bigotry,” says Rauf. No, not blind at all, and not bigotry. Our eyes are wide open, Rauf. We see the implications of your advocacy for Sharia, your call for restrictions on the freedom of speech, your refusal to denounce Hamas (yes, you did ultimately, but why the initial refusal and delay?), your backing of […]
Peaceful Muslim demands that non-Muslims accommodate violent Muslims

Cambridge, Massachusetts public schools to get Muslim holiday in response to “anti-Muslim hysteria”
“At a time when I think the Muslim population is being characterized with a broad brush in a negative way, I think it’s important for us to say we’re not going to do that here.” This is something we hear quite often, but in reality the the only time one hears all Muslims being characterized […]
Eboo Patel in Washington Post forgets about jihad terrorism, blames “fear of Muslims” on antijihadists
Eboo Patel has a used car to sell you. “Nine years after 9/11, a debate about Islam,” by Eboo Patel in the Washington Post, October 4 (thanks to all who sent this in): How is it that fear of Muslims in America is actually higher nine years post 9/11? Watching Christiane Amanpour’s special on Islam […]
ICANN drops background check on terrorism after Muslims complain
The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) removes its policy of doing background checks on new Top Level Domain applicants after Muslims complain that the policy would “be seen by millions of Muslims and Arabs as racist, prejudicial and profiling.” Well, that’s very important. We don’t want millions of Muslims and Arabs to […]
Pakistani Islamic supremacist warns that 86-year sentence for jihadist Aafia Siddiqui will intensify hatred of U.S. in Islamic world
Why? I thought that the jihadists were just a Tiny Minority of Extremists. But anyway, the idea that defending ourselves against jihadists will intensify anger against us in the Islamic world shows the hollowness of any argument predicated on the idea that we should change our behavior in any way so as to appease Muslim […]
