New in PJ Media: Old Joe Biden held a big party for Muslims at the White House Monday, and he went heavy on the pandering, claiming that “Muslims have been part of the United States from the very start.” But conspicuously not playing a part in this lovefest was Mohamed Khairullah, the mayor of Prospect Park, N.J., who complained […]
UK: Muslim police officer once hailed as role model used cadet program as ‘playground’ for sexual abuse of boys
Assistant Chief Constable Colin McFarlane admitted that “not enough was done” to “supervise and oversee him.” And why not? No one seems to be asking that question. The answer is that to have supervised and overseen him would have been “Islamophobic.” The Greater Manchester Police were so avid to have a Muslim officer, and a […]
Netherlands: ‘Salafist police’ target and threaten Westernized Muslims
Here is one reason why we don’t see more genuine Muslim reformers. “‘Salafist Police’ Targeting Westernized European Muslims,” by Abigail R. Esman, IPT News, April 25, 2023: Some call them the Salafist police….they are terrorizing other Muslims in the Netherlands, radicalizing Muslim youth, and working to undermine the secular democratic system – not just in […]
Sweden: Muslim ‘Young Role Model of the Year’ is sentenced for throwing stones at police
Was Hani Bilal Madi practicing Muhammad’s adage of “war is deceit” when he insisted that his involvement in the Qur’an riots was only to “prevent more serious crime”? Were non-Muslim authorities so anxious to find a Muslim role model who appeared to be “moderate” that they didn’t investigate Hani Bilal Madi as thoroughly as they […]
Canada: Muslim cleric denounces term ‘radical Islam,’ says only ‘enemies of Islam, or those who are ignorant’ use it
Many, many people use this term and take it for granted, including a large number of people who should know better and some who do know better. It was invented, like other terms, in order to distance Islam from the crimes that are routinely committed in its name and in accord with its teachings. It […]
France: Muslim who entered mosque of moderate imam with knife is deported
I’m very glad that the French authorities are so anxious to protect the moderate imam Hassen Chalgoumi. But only 0.2% of Algerians who are set for deportation are ever actually deported. It would be refreshing if French authorities were as anxious to protect non-Muslim French people as they are to protect Hassen Chalgoumi. “The man […]
New Mexico: Sunni Muslim suspected of murdering Shi’ites is well-known in Muslim community
Here again we see it: Muhammad Syed was moderate until he started killing people. He was an ordinary Muslim who became an “Islamist” when he opened fire. And while the community is shocked, no one will explain, or be asked to explain, why the Sunni-Shi’ite animus could move someone to kill. To search for the […]
UK: Muslim writer says the ‘right-wing extremist’ threat ‘pales in comparison to the Islamic threat’
Wasiq Wasiq is a founding trustee of Muslims Against Antisemitism (MAAS) and an Associate Fellow at the Centre on Radicalisation & Terrorism of the Henry Jackson Society. That’s an extremely bad sign, as the Henry Jackson Society is a frankly fascist organization that has openly called for foes of jihad violence and Sharia oppression of […]
Muslims and Abortion Post-Roe v. Wade
What does Islam teach about abortion? This question has become particularly pressing after the Supreme Court’s bombshell reversal in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization of the 1973 precedent, Roe v. Wade, which in conjunction with other Supreme Court cases proclaimed an unlimited constitutional “right” of abortion. Now Americans of all backgrounds, including Muslims, will decide on the legality of […]
Niger: 40 ex-jihadis complete deradicalization course, swear on Qur’an they won’t do any more violence
Are these men truly “deradicalized”? Maybe. But deradicalization programs have been spectacular failures everywhere. Qur’an 3:28 warns believers not to take unbelievers as “friends or helpers,” “unless that you but guard yourselves against them.” This is a foundation of the idea that believers may legitimately deceive unbelievers when under pressure. The word used for “guard” […]
