Will gay rights advocates say a word about this? Of course not. It has long been established that in the hierarchy of politically correct causes, Islam trumps gay rights. When AFDI ran ads highlighting the mistreatment of gays in Islamic law, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors issued a resolution condemning not that mistreatment, but […]
“What you did is against Islam!”: Muslims dump sewage on heads of couple for violating Sharia
Imagine if a group of Christians, or any group other than Muslims, did this. The outcry would be immediate, immense, and international. There would be commissions and studies about how Christianity inspires people to be brutally and intransigently self-righteous, and warnings to people to leave Christianity for their own sake. But no one will take […]
Indonesia: Two Christians flogged for playing children’s game that violates Islamic law
Muslim spokesmen in the U.S. constantly assure the public, in enunciating their opposition to anti-Sharia initiatives, that Sharia only applies to Muslims. This shows the reality. “Two Christians are flogged in Indonesia for playing a children’s game that violates Islamic law,” by Sara Malm, MailOnline, February 27, 2018 (thanks to Robert): Two Indonesian Christians were […]
Indonesia: Muslim cleric ordered jihad massacre that left four dead in Jakarta
A Muslim cleric? But hasn’t Oman Rohman, popularly known as Aman Abdurrahman, devoted his entire life to studying Islam and communicating it properly? How did he get the idea that Islam called upon him to order jihad suicide attacks and murder people he regarded as infidels or apostates? We can only hope that learned imams […]
Indonesia: Muslim groups called for knife attacks on non-Muslims a week before sword attack at church
Life grows less precarious for Christians in Indonesia in exact proportion to how much more observant in its Islam that nation becomes. “Calls for knife attacks preceded Sunday’s sword rampage in Yogyakarta church: Counter-terror official,” by Amy Chew, Channel News Asia, February 12, 2018: KUALA LUMPUR: Radical groups were calling for knife attacks in Indonesia […]
Video from Indonesia: Muslims threaten Buddhist monk, force him to sign agreement to abandon his home
Mulyanto Nurhalim’s crime? He was suspected of proselytizing among Muslims, which is forbidden under Islamic law. In reality, the Buddhists were only bringing food to impoverished villagers. But they’re Buddhists in a majority Muslim land, and one that is rapidly discarding its former much-vaunted “moderation,” and so they have to watch themselves. “Buddhist monk threatened […]
Video from Indonesia: Muslims attack church with machetes, injure priest and several churchgoers, behead statues
Pope Francis is doubtless on his way to Yogyakarta now, to explain to these Muslims that, as he has written, “authentic Islam and the proper understanding of the Koran reject every form of violence.” They just misunderstand their own religion, you see. If the great imam Francis can explain it to the poor dears, all […]
Indonesia: Muslims push ban on gay sex, cohabitation, sex outside marriage
And remember: Indonesia is a model “moderate” Muslim nation. In any case, in a few years we will see the headline “France: Muslims push ban on gay sex, cohabitation, sex outside marriage.” In any case, you won’t hear a thing about this from gay spokesmen in the U.S. When Pamela Geller and I via AFDI […]
Indonesia: Mosque cuts down pine trees because they resembled Christmas trees
A brittle, insecure, paranoid culture, that can only survive through force and violence, and the threats of violence. And instead of realizing that, in the West the threat of violence is enough to get nearly everyone to fall into line, heedless of the fact that to give in to violent intimidation only encourages more violent […]
Indonesia: Christian whipped 36 times for selling alcohol and violating Sharia
Islamic apologists in the West like to compare Sharia to Jewish law and Catholic Canon Law. When was the last time you heard of anyone being whipped for violating either one of those? Sharia forbids not just the consumption of alcohol, but its sale as well. A hadith depicts Muhammad saying: “Verily Allah, the Exalted, […]
