A band of jihadis in a poor country defeated American-backed Afghan troops, which, says President Biden, was one of the most well-equipped forces, as good as any army in the world. Is that not perplexing? One indication of why this happened is the fact that the annual budget of the Taliban is 30 times […]
Pakistan’s Khan hails Afghans for breaking ‘shackles of slavery’
He said this as he imposed an Islamic curriculum on Pakistani schools, “despite criticism because it put emphasis on religious teaching instead of modern national sciences.” This will raise a new generation of jihadis in Pakistan. “Afghans have broken ‘shackles of slavery’: Pakistan PM Imran Khan,” PTI, August 16, 2021: Pakistan is accused of facilitating […]
More than 618,000 Pakistanis have been deported from 138 countries in the past six years
In a major embarrassment for Pakistan, a nation celebrating its 74th Independence Day, or shall we say, “Foundation Day”, more than 618,000 Pakistanis have been deported from 138 countries in the past six years. The myriad immigration malpractices that have resulted in this deportation primarily include entering countries illegally or by producing fake documents. […]
US asks Pakistan to eliminate Taliban safe havens along Afghanistan-Pakistan border
This request is full of contradictions. It is presented below as “a strong message,” but amounts to nothing more than a hollow show of strength by a weak administration. Although US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Pakistan army chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa say they’re “mindful” that Pakistan and the Pakistani people “also fall victim […]
Afghanistan: Jihadis caught trying to take 13 children to Pakistan for jihad training in Islamic schools
One would think, if the establishment narrative were correct, that these children would learn in these schools to be peaceful and tolerant. Instead, they learn how to pillage, enslave, and murder. Yet no one considers the implications of this. “13 Children En Route to Terrorist Training Rescued: MoJ,” by Tamim Hamid, TOLOnews, August 10, 2021: […]
Pakistan: Another Christian girl kidnapped and converted to Islam
She claims she converted of her own free will, after being kidnapped.

Pakistan: 8-year-old Hindu boy faces death penalty on blasphemy claims
And even if he is acquitted, if his experience is anything like that of others who have been accused of blasphemy, he will face the threat of lynching from Muslim mobs for the rest of his life.

Pakistan: Three arrested for burning copies of the Qur’an, Muslim mob demands they be handed over for lynching
Remember: burning a Qur’an is the most heinous form of blasphemy, and the one who does it deserves death according to Islamic law’s death penalty for blasphemy. But committing killing infidels in accord with Qur’anic commands (cf. 2:191, 4:89, 9:5, 47:4, etc.) is not blasphemy, but commendable and exemplary piety. “Three arrested in Abbottabad for […]
Pakistan: Muslim mob attacks Hindu temple, destroys statues over ‘blasphemy’ rumor
There need not be arrests or court proceedings. All too often in Pakistan, mob violence follows “blasphemy” allegations. Just another day for religious minorities in Pakistan. An Islamist mob attacks a Hindu temple in a village in Rahim Yar Khan, Pakistan. These terrorisers may get arrested after outrage by a section of Pakistani society only […]
Pakistan’s president urges Islamic countries to counter ‘Islamophobia’ and change world’s perceptions about Muslims
I’ve often noted that the term “Islamophobia” is used for two different phenomena: vigilante attacks against innocent Muslims, which are never justified, and criticism of Islam, including analysis of how jihadis use Islam’s texts and teachings to justify violence and oppression, which is always necessary. Here, Pakistan’s president is clearly talking about criticism of Islam, […]
