Hamid Dabashi, the tireless apologist for Islam and slavish admirer of the late Edward Said, about whom he wrote an unforgettable “Ode to Edward Said,” has recently delivered himself of some remarks about the vast and sinister campaign being waged throughout the world against innocent Muslims. In Dabashi’s vivid and hysterical imagination, it’s a truly […]
UK: Press regulator to issue guidelines for reporting on Islam that won’t “impinge right to criticize or challenge”
Yeah, sure they won’t. OK, show of hands, people: how many of you believe that IPSO’s new guidelines for reporting on stories involving Islam and Muslims will not actually impinge upon the right to criticize Islam or challenge Islamic teachings? How many of you actually believe that IPSO will not act as part of the […]
The Soros-funded propaganda smear machine Center for American Progress fires staffers for leaks about UAE influence
The Center for American Progress is the extraordinarily well-funded, mendacious and subversive hard-Left organization that published a highly deceptive and misleading report on “Islamophobia,” a neologism designed to intimidate people into fearing to oppose jihad terror and Sharia oppression. The CAP is antisemitic as well. And now we see why: it’s on the payroll of […]
Oklahoma: Hamas-linked CAIR enraged as judge dismisses Muslima’s lawsuit over having to take off hijab at courthouse
Jihad Watch reported on this story several days ago, but this Tulsa World article has much more detail about the case. This looks as if it is yet another instance of Hamas-linked CAIR trying to trump up “Islamophobia” and fabricate an “anti-Muslim hate crime” where none exists; actual such cases are so thin on the […]
UK councils across the country are adopting agreed-upon official list of examples of “Islamophobia”
“Councils across the UK are starting to adopt an agreed list of examples of Islamophobia.” It was only a matter of time before the will of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation was embedded in the laws of Western nations in order to subvert Western freedoms. Even the previous sentence would be deemed “Islamophobic” according to […]
Egyptian writer: “The main plan of the Islamists is to destroy Western civilization. They said so themselves!”
I don’t generally use the word “Islamist” myself, as it is too often used in order to establish some artificial distance between aggressive, violent, imperialist and supremacist political Islam and a supposedly benign ordinary Islam. But in every other respect, Said Shoaib and Hamed Abdel-Samad say in this important interview things that I have said […]
What the IRS can and should do to rein in pro-jihad and “Palestinian” propaganda at universities
Universities today are not institutions of higher learning, but indoctrination centers for far-Left propaganda. Leonard Getz, a retired IRS official, here explains how the IRS can and should put a stop to this. “How the IRS Can Rein In Radical Islam and Anti-Israel Propaganda Courses at Universities,” by Leonard Getz and Cliff Rieders, PJ Media, […]
“The inventors and purveyors of ‘Islamophobia’ have succeeded beyond their dreams in silencing criticism of Islam”
Indeed they have. The idea that opposing jihad mass murder and Sharia oppression of women, non-Muslims and others would be stigmatized and marginalized to the degree that it is today is breathtaking. Most people now take for granted that any negative statement regarding Islam, even criticism of jihad terrorists, is “Islamophobic” and to be shunned […]
California: Hamas-linked CAIR applauds as US judge recommends overturning jihad terror conviction
“The prosecution took advantage of post-9/11 hysteria to convict him,” says Basim Elkarra, executive director of the Sacramento Valley office of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations. But that kind of argument can cut both ways. If Hamid Hayat was convicted because of “post-9/11 hysteria,” might it also be possible that his conviction is being […]
Turkish ambassador to European security organization OSCE says “public should be told that Islamophobia is a crime”
The problem is that “Islamophobia” is a propaganda neologism that is used by its purveyors to refer to two distinct phenomena: harassment of innocent Muslims and violence against them, and honest analysis of the motivating ideology behind jihad terror. The goal is to use efforts against the former to silence the latter, so that no […]
