When actual “Islamophobia” doesn’t exist, it has to be manufactured, as it is an extremely useful political tool for Islamic supremacists. “DBP clears the air over headquarters’ roof demolition,” Malaysiakini, August 9, 2019 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): The Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka (DBP) headquarters in Kuala Lumpur is an iconic building that is […]
Ilhan Omar and the Bait-and-Switch of Collective Guilt
My latest in PJ Media: Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) has been heavily criticized for apparently trivializing the 9/11 jihad attacks when she characterized them as “some people did something.” However, in a recent interview (with Al Jazeera, which is as anti-Semitic as she is), Omar revealed what was really important to her about those attacks, […]
Myanmar: Muslim charges hate speech against pol who said if someone insulted Muhammad, “Muhammad will bomb them”
U Hla Swe said: “They [the US] can insult three out of four religions. But do they dare touch Muhammad? I doubt the US is that brave. If they do, Muhammad will bomb them with an airplane. They are afraid of that.” That’s what he is being sued for. U San Aung said: “As a […]
Arab News blames high percentage of Muslims in UK prisons on poverty, lack of education, and racial profiling
The UK’s Muslim community constitutes 4.8 percent of its population, but Muslim inmates are 16 percent of the prison population. In a move characteristic of Islamic spokesmen, Zaid M. Belbagi blames this on the non-Muslims of Britain, for supposedly keeping the Muslims of the country in poverty, denying them educational opportunities, and racially profiling them […]
Boris Johnson Wrote Something Unflattering About Islam 12 Years Ago — Was He Right?
Here is the story: Boris Johnson has been accused of “promoting hatred” after penning an essay arguing Islam caused the Muslim world to be “literally centuries behind” the West. “After penning an essay” sounds as if Johnson just wrote it. It is only at the very end of the third paragraph that we learn he […]
Islamomoria — Countering the Charge of “Islamophobia”
When words are weaponized and skillfully wielded in the moral battles of a society, they can change the debate landscape in short order — a few decades at most. Witness, for example, a word freshly minted in the early 1980s, when attitudes toward homosexuality were by and large negative. Gay activists coined the term “homophobia” […]
Leftists and Muslims enraged over Boris Johnson’s statement that Muslim world “literally centuries behind” the West
“Mohammed Amin, until recently chairman of the Conservative Muslim Forum, told the newspaper Mr Johnson’s analysis risked ‘actively promoting hatred of Muslims.’” Why? Johnson’s statement — which, by the way, he made in 2007, but there is no statute of limitations on Leftist/Islamic rage — was about Islam, not Muslims. If he had said that […]
Huffington Post: “Muslim women subject to harassment when swimming while wearing less-than-revealing swim attire”
A new declaration of victimhood: a Huffington Post report states that “over the last decade, Muslim women across the globe have been subject to an increasing amount of harassment when swimming while wearing less-than-revealing swim attire.” Muslim women facing opposition when wearing “less-than-revealing swim attire” in pools has nothing to do with their being Muslim. […]
Kenya: Muslim leaders oppose new anti-terror law
In the U.S., we regularly see Muslim groups opposing counterterror measures, and this story shows that this is an international phenomenon. Muslim groups in the West consistently assert that they oppose terrorism (without ever specifically defining what it is), but often also oppose any attempt to do anything about it. “Muslims lobby oppose school anti-terror […]
CAIR-LA leader trashes American Independence Day and claims US runs “concentration camps”
The leader of Hamas-linked CAIR in Los Angeles, Hussam Ayloush, flew to Turkey for a “spiritual social media travelogue,” and as expected, he didn’t say a word about the jihadist state of Turkey nor its erratic leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Instead, he trashed America with a tirade of propaganda — the truly free country that […]
