The Hamas terror group has welcomed the decision by UK Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn to shun a dinner commemorating the centenary of the Balfour Declaration in London next month.

Minnesota: Club president says he is “kind of” pro-free speech, but cancels event critical of Islam
“In no way is our club a sponsor of political viewpoints and we do not endorse our facility to be used in such a way.” And “the general sentiment among the board, even among those who voted to cancel the event, was that Dakdok should be allowed to present his message, ‘but they didn’t think […]
UK council bans woman from market for selling Knights Templar mugs: “Might be offensive to Muslims”
The council apologized and reinstated Tina Gayle and her Knights Templar mugs (how can I get one?), but that these mugs were controversial at all is an indication of how much the British people have already submitted to Sharia norms forbidding criticism of Islam. “The person who complained wasn’t offended himself, but thought Muslims might […]
Nestlé removes Christian cross from Greek yogurt packaging
As Jihad Watch noted in September, the German supermarket chain Lidl recently did this also.

UK: Police officer fired for Facebook post that was “offensive towards Muslims”
“The communities of Cumbria expect officers and staff to act on their behalf with integrity, fairness and judgement. The trust of local communities, particularly minority groups, is hard won and easily lost.” Very well. But would Ross Lister have been fired for remarks that Jews would consider offensive? Would he have been fired for remarks […]
