New in PJ Media: It seemed to be a simple, albeit particularly bloody, road rage incident. A man was stopped at a red light in Taylorsville, Utah, waiting for the light to change so that he could make a right turn. The driver behind him got impatient and started leaning on his horn. The driver […]
Utah: Man shoots another man at liquor store in road rage confrontation, shooter turns out to be Taliban member
A Taliban member. In Taylorsville, Utah. Note that KSL calls the Taliban a “gang.” It is actually a designated terrorist organization, according to the U.S. State Department, as well as the ruling government of Afghanistan.

Pakistan-Afghanistan war shows no signs of ending, dozens killed
As the world’s attention is fixed on the American-Israeli war on Iran, another war is raging, but getting much less attention: the war between Pakistan and Afghanistan.

The Taliban Are Working Hard to Make Afghanistan More Islamic, and Leftists Are Gonna Love It
New in PJ Media: Forget Montecito and Cape Cod. The left’s next playground could very well be the hitherto overlooked paradise of Kabul, Afghanistan. Crazy thought, you say? Not really.

Sharia in action in Afghanistan: Beating of women legalized as long as there are no broken bones
This should come as no surprise to anyone except the blinkered and willfully ignorant whose heads are filled with dawah and propaganda. The Qur’an teaches that men are superior to women and should beat those from whom they “fear disobedience”: “Men have authority over women because Allah has made the one superior to the other, […]
Afghanistan: Taliban approve law legalizing slavery, sex slavery, and violence against children on Islamic grounds
There are Westerners, some of them quite respected and influential, who will see this news item somewhere (not here, of course) and assume that the Taliban are misunderstanding Islam, which they are certain is a religion of peace and tolerance that rejects violence and slavery.

Afghanistan: Sunni Muslims murder three Ismaili Muslims in separate jihad attacks over the past month

In reality, however, jihadis often target the Ismailis for violence precisely because of their deviation from mainstream Islam on this and other issues. “Three Ismaili Men Killed In Separate Attacks In Northern Afghanistan,” […]

Afghanistan: Morality Police destroy 86 musical instruments to enforce ‘Islamic principles’
“‘Imran bin Husain narrated that the Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) said: ‘In this Ummah there shall be collapsing of the earth, transformation and Qadhf.’ A man among the Muslims said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! When is that?’ He said: ‘When singing slave-girls, music, and drinking intoxicants spread.’” (Jami at-Tirmidhi 2212) “It was narrated from Abu Malik […]
