India: Muslims enraged, put bounty on head of Bollywood singer for tweet critical of adhan over loudspeakers
Islamic supremacists “dug out Bollywood singer Sonu Nigam” for a tweet from 2017. He merely criticized the broadcast of the adhan (the Islamic call to prayer) over loudspeakers. He didn’t criticize the adhan itself, just the volume; and for that, woe be unto him even today. Two teens reportedly were stabbed for supporting his tweet […]

Where is Stuart Harrison from? From his name, he doesn’t appear to be a UAE native.

Dubai to open ‘Quran Park’ showcasing miracles of Islam
What fun this will be! I look forward to visiting the Apes and Pigs Pavilion, where Allah transforms disobedient Jews into those despised animals: “And well you know there were those among you [Jews] that transgressed the Sabbath, and We said to them, ‘Be you apes, miserably slinking!’” (Qur’an 2:65). “Say: ‘People of the Book, […]
Abu Dhabi: Muslims won’t play Israeli anthem or show flag as Israeli judoka wins gold, so he sings “Hatikvah” on podium
Israeli judoka Tal Flicker scaled the top of the podium and received his gold medal on Thursday, but the Israel national anthem was not played and the blue-and-white flag was not raised in Abu Dhabi.

Dubai man jailed for insulting Islam on Facebook loses appeal
In the enlightened West, people aren’t arrested or jailed for criticizing Muhammad. They’re just excoriated as racist, bigoted Islamophobes, and shunned by all decent people, and concerted efforts are made to deny them access to all means of communication. Everyone the world over agrees that Muhammad, alone of all human beings, must never be criticized. […]
