France: Muslim stabs six people, takes out Qur’an and prays, cops say it’s not ‘linked to Islamist radicalization’
Of course. How could this possibly have anything to do with the Book of Peace he was carrying? “Six people attacked with a knife in Château-Thierry, a suspect arrested,” translated from “Six personnes agressées au couteau à Château-Thierry, un suspect interpellé,” by Isabelle Lassalle, France Bleu, October 8, 2022 (thanks to Medforth): Friday evening in […]
Ghana: Imam who teaches Qur’an arrested, was previously arrested for links to jihad terror group
What’s that? An imam? Why, how could this be?

Pakistan: Muslim mob accuses Hindu of burning Qur’an pages, tries to lynch him
The mere accusation was enough. No evidence, no proof was needed. As far as these jihadis are concerned, any pretext to victimize non-Muslims is worth acting upon. “Pakistan: Mob Accuses Hindu Sanitary Worker For Burnt Quran Pages Found On Floor, Tries To Lynch Him,” Swarajya, August 23, 2022: …yet another case from Pakistan where a […]
Morocco: Woman gets two years in prison for ‘attacking the Muslim religion’ on Facebook
It is a brittle and insecure religion and culture that feels itself compelled to punish dissidents with prison or violence. That is true in many instances other than this particular one, and far beyond Islam itself. Meanwhile, this sort of thing doesn’t happen in the enlightened West. Here, we are free to criticize any and […]
