This latest occasion for Muslim outrage is particularly ridiculous. The idea that fiendish Christians are printing the name of Allah on toilet paper in order to offend Muslims could only have occurred to the most paranoid purveyor of the victimhood mentality. The name of Allah in Arabic is the kind of design that if you […]
Virginia: Muslim family claims hospital guard kicked them out, said niqabbed women looked “scary”
Muslims now own the mass media, apparently, and any charge levied against an infidel by them, newsworthy or not, becomes a big news item, such as the hijab-wearing 11-year-old girl in Canada who lied about being attacked by an “Islamophobe”; a Huffington Post writer still wrote that she deserved an apology. Now comes more big […]
London: Investigation underway, Muslim parents furious over counter-terrorism authorities questioning 8-year-old son
In an Independent exclusive, it was revealed that “an eight-year-old boy was questioned by two counter-terrorism police officers and a social worker at a school in east London over alleged radicalisation fears…The parents, who wish to remain anonymous, said their child was left ‘frightened’ and ‘traumatised’ after he was separated from his classmates at a […]
NYC to pay $224,000 to Muslim firefighter who was accused of threatening to kill his fellow firefighters
If Raheem Hassan had been a non-Muslim who threatened to kill his Muslim colleagues, do you think criminal charges against him would have been dropped if he agreed to stay out of trouble and go into counseling? Neither do I. And now the city is paying him $224,000 because he was allegedly harassed, although “neither […]
UK Muslim whines about “pernicious Islamophobia” at Christmas
While poor Bilal Hassam is beset by “Islamophobia,” here are some recent news items from the real world: Benedict Kiely Real Clear Politics reported last Tuesday that Christians in Iraq face a new threat from “Popular Mobilization Units,” who in the town of Karamles, near Mosul, recently blocked a road that led to a church, […]
The opposition to Shahid Shafi is not because of bigotry or hysteria over Sharia
There is an ongoing controversy over Shahid Shafi, vice chairman of the Tarrant County Republican Party, about which Hugh Fitzgerald has written here and here over the last few days. And now, Jim Geraghty sums up what Shafi’s defenders have maintained all along: that opposition to Shafi is all about anti-Muslim bigotry, from beginning to […]
Germany: Muslima enraged, files suit over washing instructions that say “Muslims will shrink”
Muslin, not Muslim, but probably a simple explanation will not suffice when there is an opportunity for lucrative victimhood posturing. “Muslima turns over because of washing notice,” translated from “Muslima dreht wegen Waschhinweis durch,” Journalisten Watch, December 20, 2018 (thanks to Searchlight Germany): Dusseldorf – When the Muslima Zeynep Can wanted to wash the burp […]
Owen Jones: “Members of the LGBT community must stand behind under-fire Muslims”
Owen Jones is a British far-left political commentator and “journalist.” I use these terms very loosely, given his love of name-calling in lieu of substance to his ramblings. Jones has long been an advocate for the LGBT community to stand up and throw their support behind Islam. Owen likes to toss around words like ‘bigot’, […]
Austria: Mother of Islamic State “jihadi pin-up poster girl” sues government for letting her leave the country
Sabina Selimovic’s mother is suing the Austrian government for allowing her daughter to leave the country and join the Islamic State. She should be apologizing to the government for raising her child in such a manner that she was susceptible to jihad preaching. This shows that Western governments can’t win for losing. If the Austrian […]
Georgia: Muslim family claims that driver made obscene gestures and swerved into their lane because they were Muslim
This is absurd. A driver gave the occupants of another car the finger and swerved into their lane? That happens innumerable times every day. Only when it happens to hijab-wearing Muslims does it become a “hate crime.” But it’s obviously spurious. Remember: hate crimes today are a big business. Hamas-linked CAIR, which is, predictably enough, […]
