They provide an unfortunate reminder of the interest on the part of […]
Don’t expect jihad to subside
Common sense from an unsigned editorial in the Albany Democrat-Herald. Are they reading my books in Albany? (I know, I know: any fairminded person can get the truth from the news headlines.) Everybody who has thought about it knows what President Bush meant when he said the war against terrorism probably cannot be won. It […]
“Islam will rule the world”
This was posted on the message boards at Faith Freedom International. Of course, it may be a hoax, but there is no doubt that it embodies the globalist, totalitarian vision of radical Islam — as anyone who reads this site regularly can attest.

Historic site in Iran turned into garbage dump, official complains
In Islamic thought, the pre-Islamic period of any Muslim nation’s history is known as jahiliya: the pre-Islamic time of ignorance. Nothing that was any part of it has any value.

“Our Prophet did not run for office in any election … he won the war against the infidel”
So said an imam in a sermon in the Middle East last Friday. How easy will it be to reform Islam? Amir Taheri in this New York Post piece (thanks to Fred Van Ackerman) also notes that “one theme of these sermons is that Bush’s call for free elections and reform in the Muslim world […]

Sudan: Janjaweed vow to fight any intervention by ‘infidels’

Truce Talks Collapse in Holy City of Najaf
Al-Sadr wanted concession after concession, including money for the families of those killed by Americans.

From AP: NAJAF, Iraq – Truce talks between […]
Pakistan opposition leader: UN should declare defamation of Muhammad an international crime
Which do you think the UN is more likely to do? Defend the rights of those who leave Islam, or make blaspheming Muhammad an international crime?
