Silent about a threat that is theirs today as well. My column in FrontPage today: Jean-Clément Jeanbart, the Melkite Greek Catholic Archbishop of Aleppo, gave a recent interview with a French reporter, in which he was highly critical of the mainstream media and even of his fellow bishops for ignoring the Muslim persecution of Middle […]
Iran-backed militia seize Christian neighborhoods in Baghdad
“In 2014, the Islamic State announced that all Christians under its territories must pay a minority tax, or Jizzyah, of approximately $500 per family, convert to Islam or be put to death. Later, the decree was revoked and Christians no longer had the option of staying and paying a tax. They either had to leave […]
UK: Somali Muslims living by their own laws
Why shouldn’t they behave with absolute impunity? They know that the British government is cowed, weak, terrified of them, and in thrall to the multiculturalist ethos which makes it “racist” to oppose them in any way. The country is theirs; it’s only a matter of time. “A private school girl, mothers who excuse gang rape […]
Melkite Greek Catholic Archbishop to West: “Why are your bishops silent on a threat that is yours today as well?”
“Open your eyes, didn’t you see what happened recently in Paris?” No, they didn’t see it. They didn’t want to see it. Archbishop Jeanbart is not the first to say this. “Why, we ask the western world, why not raise one’s voice over so much ferocity and injustice?” asked Cardinal Angelo Bagnasco, the head of […]
Egypt: Coptic Christian tombs are being turned into “garbage dumps,” laments Christian leader
As often happens to Christian cemeteries in Muslim nations — whether at the hands of “ISIS” or the hands of “angry youth” — “the tombs of the Copts [Egypt’s indigenous Christians] are being turned into garbage dumps.” This was the urgent and recent message from Fr. Ayoub Yousef, who heads the Coptic Catholic church of […]
Swedish church to collect funds to build mosque
How wonderful. How sweet and charitable and generous and loving. Maybe the Muslims who go to this mosque once it is built will look upon their Christian neighbors with gratitude, and treat them kindly. More likely, however, they will see the Christians’ generosity as their due, since the Qur’an commands Muslims to fight against the […]
Sweden: Memorial for murdered social worker banned to avoid upsetting Muslim migrants
The main priority, as far as European authorities are concerned, is the Muslim migrants, not their own citizens. The invasion is proceeding by the active decision of those authorities. “Migrant centre banned from holding memorial to Swedish social worker ‘stabbed to death by Somali boy, 15’ in case it upsets refugee children,” by Sara Malm, […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: An update on the “islamochristian”
The phenomenon of the “islamochristian” deserves wider attention, and the word wider use. An “islamochristian” is, in its strictest sense, a Christian Arab who identifies with and works to advance the Islamic agenda, out of fear or out of a belief that his “Arabness” requires loyalty to Islam. Islamization by the Arab Muslim conquerors of […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: No Need To Play The Dhimmi
ROME — A decision to cover up nude statues from Roman antiquity during a visit by President Hassan Rouhani of Iran has drawn ridicule and scorn in Italy — much of it directed at the Italian government — and spurred a debate about the national identity. The statues, in a corridor leading to a grand […]
Alcohol banned in UK government building: under Sharia because of secret deal to finance Islamic bond scheme
I have been warning for quite some time that Sharia was coming to the United Kingdom, given its hospitality to Sharia finance, galloping eagerness to accommodate Islamic supremacists in all areas, unwillingness to defend its girls from Muslim rape gangs for fear of being accused of “racism,” and desire to implement Sharia blasphemy laws by […]
