My latest book, Islamophobia and the Threat to Free Speech, is available now from Center for Security Policy Press. You can order it here. It shows how the demonization of foes of jihad violence and Sharia oppression was a dry run for the Left’s attempt now to silence and criminalize all opposition to its agenda. […]
Netherlands: Supreme Court upholds conviction of Geert Wilders for insulting Moroccans
Here we come to the heart of the matter. Does Geert Wilders oppose the entry of more Moroccans into the Netherlands because they are “brown,” or Arab? Is it just that he is racist? Or is it because he dares to notice that the Moroccan Muslim migrants have brought with them a sharp increase in […]
Morocco: Woman gets 3 1/2 years prison, $6,000 fine for ‘publicly insulting Islam’
A glimpse into the future of the West. This is where the Left’s “hate speech” rhetoric is tending. We are very close to this now, far closer than most people realize. Supporters of the President are defamed and smeared now, but for years, critics of jihad terror and Sharia oppression of women and others have […]
eBay Bans Dr. Seuss, Allows Hezbollah
Words and images that offend someone are just like violence. At least that’s the modern safetyism argument. But the symbols of an Islamic terrorist organization are the symbol of someone else’s freedom fighter. eBay is very careful to keep the marketplace safe from things that might offend crybullies. Online marketplace eBay Inc. said it is working […]
Canada: Liberal government manipulates tragic murders of Muslims to fuel drive against the freedom of speech
The horrific killing of four members of a London, Ontario Muslim family who were run over by a pickup truck continues to be cheaply politicized.

Biden’s handlers unveil program to fight ‘white supremacy’ in military and ‘purge’ Internet of ‘extremist content’
“Purge” is well chosen, because that’s exactly what this is, a nakedly political purge of the loyal opposition, and the forcible silencing of political dissent in America. It’s plain as day what is coming. What is not clear is whether or not there will be any significant number of Americans who stand for freedom and […]
Pakistan’s Khan urges strict action against online ‘hate,’ says it’s the root cause of ‘Islamophobia’
“Islamophobia” is a propaganda term designed to intimidate people into fearing to oppose jihad violence, for fear that this opposition would lead to attacks on innocent Muslims, which are never justified. If Khan really wants to combat dislike of Islam and suspicion of Muslims, he should work against jihad groups and try to stop jihad […]
Belgium: Protesters get six months in prison for ‘Stop Islamization’ banner
Sharia states are the same all over the world: they discriminate fiercely against women, they deny non-Muslims numerous rights, they’re human rights basket cases with draconian punishments for homosexuality, adultery, theft, and more, and they’re vociferously anti-Semitic. But if you oppose all that in the West, you’re the problem. “Four members of radical-right group, Voorpost, […]
Malaysia: Woman criticizes Islam on video, police move in
A glimpse into the future of the West. This is where the Left’s “hate speech” rhetoric is tending. We are very close to this now, far closer than most people realize.
