Did he mean to desecrate the Qur’an, or was he distributing passages of it as a warning of impending jihad violence? No way to tell from this report. “Paris: an S file who threw bits of the Koran arrested for knife attack, one injured,” translated from “Paris : un fiché S qui jetait des bouts […]
Muslim who murdered three Israeli border guards was carrying a Qur’an
The Jerusalem Post headline here is “Egyptian border terrorist was carrying Koran, likely motivated by extremism.” Yet the Qur’an is the holy book of Islam. All Muslims regard it as holy. So how is this jihadi’s possession of it “extremism”? Even when the Jerusalem Post is confronted with clear evidence of the mainstream character of […]
Chechnya: 60,000 Muslims attend rally against Qur’an-burning, but some say they were forced to come
There is no reason to doubt those who said they were forced to attend.

India: Muslim Bollywood star quotes Qur’an to claim that there is no place for terrorism in Islam

Germany: Muslim migrant who stabbed four people in gym had hand-copied Qur’an sections attacking unbelievers

They couldn’t be wrong, could they? “After knife attack: Duisburg terrorist suspect may have planned another attack,” translated from “Nach Messerattacke: Duisburger Terrorverdächtiger könnte weiteren Anschlag geplant haben,” WDR, […]
Islamic Republic of Iran: Two men hanged for desecrating Qur’an and insulting Muhammad

Sweden arrests Qur’an-burner Rasmus Paludan in absentia, will be arrested if he enters the country
It’s easier for Swedish authorities to surrender the freedom of expression and persecute Rasmus Paludan for exercising it than it would be for them to stand up for the freedom of expression against outraged Muslims in Sweden demanding submission to Sharia. “Rasmus Paludan arrested in absentia – will be arrested on entry,” translated from “Rasmus […]
