Father Stephen Farragher is no doubt a loyal follower of Pope Francis, who has made the risible claim that “authentic Islam and the proper reading of the Koran are opposed to every form of violence.” Although this is not and could not ever be a dogma of the Roman Catholic Church, it is assumed to […]
Congresswoman Ilhan Omar’s “Hijabi Slip”
A Freudian slip is embarrassing because for an instant something we hide is revealed to others. Maybe it’s suppressing bigoted and prejudiced feelings that we know are unacceptable in the wider society, but in a moment of stress and thoughtlessness, this dark side of who we are pops out. Recently, Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (MN-D) had […]
UK: Muslim barrister headbuts female lawyer, leaving her covered in blood on ground, gets three-month suspension
“But critics say the suspension is further evidence of regulators showing leniency to barristers guilty of crimes.” Maybe the leniency stems from his being a barrister. But we have also seen, many, many times, Muslims in the U.K. get special treatment from fearful and deferential officials. Remember the Muslim rape gangs that roamed free for […]
Pakistan: Muslim clerics say “it isn’t possible to close mosques under any circumstances in an Islamic country”
Pious Muslims in Pakistan have been crowding into mosques, saying “we don’t believe in coronavirus, we believe in Allah.” This has earned Pakistan a reputation of being the “super-spreader” of coronavirus to the entire Muslim world. Some Muslim clerics have been fueling the fanaticism of the people. So in response: Pakistani President Arif Alvi and […]
Muslim cleric says coronavirus is a blessing, an agent of Allah
The veracity of this claim would depend on only non-Muslims getting infected, but if Muslims are infected, Farrokh Sekaleshfar will just say they weren’t sufficiently submissive to Allah. In any case, the idea that unbelievers should suffer in this world is a basic underlying assumption of jihad activity. “Iran-Based Scholar Sheikh Farrokh Sekaleshfar: COVID-19 Is […]
France Not Enforcing Lockdowns in Muslim No-Go Zones
They do call them no-go zones for a reason. But let’s not kid ourselves. There are neighborhoods in New York City and LA where the police won’t be asking crowds to go indoors and that the media would never dream of shaming and which won’t go viral on social media. This is the same thing except […]
Pakistan: Muslim NGO denies food to poor Hindus and Christians amid coronavirus pandemic
“The reason for this is that Zakat, Islamic alms giving (one of Islam’s five pillars), is reserved for Muslims.” Islamic apologists in the West routinely deny that this is the case, but here it is in action. Anyway, if the reverse were true, this story would receive massive international media coverage. But no one will […]
NYC Mayor de Blasio threatens to shut down churches and synagogues permanently, makes no mention of mosques
This is patently unconstitutional and unlikely to stand, but de Blasio’s omission is noteworthy. As he has assiduously courted support from Muslim advocates and Islamic groups, it is unlikely that the existence of mosques in New York just slipped his mind. He threatens those whom he knows are susceptible to threats, and not those among […]
Germany: Muslim migrant murders man, gets two years probation and 120 hours of community service
This sentence likely stems from the fact that the German government is so wholeheartedly and indefatigably committed to the migrant project that it is anxious to minimize any incident that reflects poorly on the migrants. In this case, that meant covering up what happened to Marcus Hempel, and denying his family justice. The future Germany […]
Coronavirus Is for Infidels: Some Toronto Mosques Stay Open Despite Pandemic
My latest in PJ Media: Anyone who doesn’t comply with coronavirus restrictions is endangering others. Accordingly, it is a matter of more than local concern that while most mosques in the Toronto area (where Ontario Premier Doug Ford has declared a state of emergency) have closed, some are stubbornly staying open. This is not for […]
