“You will surely find the most intense of the people in animosity toward the believers to be the Jews…” — Qur’an 5:82 In practice, that verse usually works out in the opposite way: Muslims are the most intense of the people in animosity toward the Jews. “13-year-old Jewish boy wearing kippah attacked in Paris,” by […]
Pakistan’s government won’t abolish blasphemy law because it “fears the reaction of extremists”
All over the world, the principle is being reinforced: terrorism works. To get what you want, threaten violence, and the “free world” will jump to comply with your wishes. And Archbishop Coutts’ brother bishops in the U.S. are pursuing an illusory and self-defeating “dialogue” even to the extent of silencing those voices that speak honestly […]
Denmark: Police flee, leaving non-Muslim couple under fire in Muslim area
I do not know what is most shocking: that the police are shot at with automatic weapons; that the police flee and leave an innocent couple in an area filled with armed and shooting criminals; that non-Muslims are cleansed from the area; or that the police do not just drive down to the burning houses […]
Bible critic cancels book criticizing Qur’an for fear of jihad attack
Those who glibly claim that “extremism of all kinds” is the problem, and that Christianity is just as likely to incite its adherents to violence as Islam, should take note: everyone knows better, even if no one will admit it. Everyone knows that Christians won’t kill you for criticizing their religion, and Muslims will. This […]
NYT runs dung-caked Mary painting again, won’t run Muhammad cartoons
The hypocrisy is stark and absolute: “Under Times standards, we do not normally publish images or other material deliberately intended to offend religious sensibilities” — unless it offends a group that is not committing mass murder and threatening more over such images. This is, as I wrote yesterday, still more mainstream media canonization of the […]
Video: Robert Spencer on Newsmax TV on the Texas jihad attack
About an hour after our bout here, Newsmax TV’s Ed Berliner and I sparred another round on his Hard Line show.
Attacking free speech is a core element of jihad terror
Referring to the writers who have pulled out of the PEN ceremony honoring Charlie Hebdo, Afshin Ellian has the perfect response to those who say that drawing Muhammad cartoons is needlessly insulting and provoking Muslims: “If you start with saying they shouldn’t make the cartoons, you may as well say they shouldn’t write novels. After […]
China: Muslims find non-halal products at halal shop, smash up the shop
Once again, Islamic supremacist intimidation and thuggery is met with appeasement. This will only lead to more Islamic supremacist intimidation and thuggery. “Muslims in Qinghai discover non-halal products at halal cake shop, proceed to smash up the shop,” by Lucy Liu, Shanghai List, May 3, 2015 (thanks to Thomas): A group of Muslim residents smashed […]
Online jihadis call for jihad murders of cartoonists in US, Australia
Foreign Policy follows a generally dhimmi line, but the clueless Obama-era FBI reads it to gather its “intelligence,” so it is worth looking into occasionally. Here is a piece on ongoing attempts to intimidate the West into silence by calling for the murder of those who violate Islam’s blasphemy laws. It is precisely to show […]
US cities increase security over Islamic State “kill list”
Last month we had the story of the U.S. military personnel being targeted, but not the particulars of the cities targeted. They’re listed below. “ISIS releases ‘Kill List’; Seven Texas cities included,” NewsChannel10, March 24, 2015 (thanks to Pamela Geller): The Pentagon has responded to a globally-released ‘Kill List’, asking law enforcement to give extra […]
