“O you who believe, strong drink and games of chance and idols and divining arrows are only an abomination of Satan’s handiwork.

American Freedom Can’t Coexist with Islamic Supremacy
Introduction: Two Legal Systems, One Nation America was built on a revolutionary premise: that law does not descend from the heavens by clerical decree, but rises from the consent of the governed.

Texas: Department of Justice announces investigation of Muslim EPIC City
There are serious concerns about the application of Sharia in this place, and so the investigation is entirely warranted, although it is not at all clear that the investigators will know what danger signs to look for.

JK Rowling compares trans activists to ‘Islamic fundamentalists’ who want to ‘hang’ women
The behavior of extreme trans activists has indeed mimicked “Islamic fundamentalists” in several ways, such as degrading the rights of women and using violence. That is, however, where the similarity ends. Also, aggressive trans activism which completely robs women of their spaces is limited to a small subculture of modern, Western woke activism. The sharia […]

Bangladesh: Thousands of Muslims rally against proposals to grant equal rights to women
When have you ever seen, anywhere, a rally of this size of Muslims against the jihad terrorists who have supposedly hijacked the peaceful religion of Islam? Right, never.
