New in PJ Media: Imam Mohammad Ali Elahi, the founder and spiritual leader of the Islamic House of Wisdom (IHW) in Dearborn, Mich., is a well-connected man. In mid-July 2022, the IHW announced that “Imam Elahi joined the vaccination mobilization event addressed by Vice President Harris, Governer Whitmer, Lieutenant Governor and a group of state and national […]
UK: Islamic charity with leader that supports jihadis and Rushdie fatwa gets $1,650,000 in government funds
The British government’s support for the Islamic Human Rights Commission provides a handy new illustration of what it means to be a “useful idiot.” “Chairman of a British-based Islamic Human Rights Commission — that has has received more than £1.4 million in charity cash — praised the fatwa on Sir Salman Rushdie less than a […]
Virgin Money Foundation helps Muslim ‘challenge and dismantle systemic Islamophobic towards Muslim woman in the UK’
Maybe they should have given Roukagia a Fellowship to challenge and dismantle her systemic failure to grasp English grammar, but more importantly, has the Virgin Money Foundation given any Fellowships to any victims of jihad to help them fight against jihad violence? Any Fellowships to critics of jihad terror and Sharia oppression of women to […]
Michigan imam friendly with Kamala Harris and Gretchen Whitmer pushes Iranian regime’s agenda
Harris and Whitmer et al don’t care. They just want to get their “Anti-Islamophobia” card punched. The possibility that Elahi could be influencing his people in an anti-American direction doesn’t even enter their minds. It just isn’t a concern at all. “Michigan Imam Garners Political Favor While Keeping Close with Iranian Regime,” by Susannah Johnston, […]
The American Conservative denounces Rushdie, complains that his book was ‘deliberately insulting to Islam’
Well, that didn’t take long. On Tuesday, I wrote: “So now, because of the attack on Salman Rushdie, Dreher has at least temporarily abandoned his naive kumbaya irenicism and is acknowledging again that there is a jihad threat.” On Thursday, The American Conservative, where Dreher doth bestride the narrow world like a colossus, published this […]
Canada: More antisemitism from another government-funded Muslim ‘anti-racism’ representative
Antisemitism from leaders of Canada’s “anti-racism” industry has been exposed several times, but without any significant followup. The Liberal government of Canada is funding these “leaders” to combat racism. There is a clear pattern of tolerating blatant antisemitism in Canada, while swiftly stifling and punishing those who tell the truth about Islamic supremacism and the […]
As a Survivor of the First ISIS Attack on American Soil, I Have a Few Thoughts About Salman Rushdie
New in PJ Media: The stabbing of Salman Rushdie has been the occasion for numerous people around the world to reaffirm their commitment to the freedom of speech, and that’s all to the good. I couldn’t help but notice once again, however, the stark contrast between the response to the attack on Rushdie and the […]
Cathy Young and The Bulwark suddenly discover that there is a jihad threat to the freedom of speech
As I noted earlier today here and here, Salman Rushdie, perhaps because he is a doctrinaire Leftist, makes people who otherwise do not oppose jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women think that it’s acceptable to do so. But while the New York Times and Rod Dreher of The American Conservative blithely ignore their previous […]
Rod Dreher and The American Conservative suddenly rediscover the jihad threat
Salman Rushdie is, for whatever reason, the one figure who makes people who otherwise ignore or deny the jihad threat and decry “Islamophobia” think it is acceptable to take a stand against it. Here is Rod Dreher, “Rushdie & Our Permanent Fatwa Culture,” The American Conservative, August 14, 2022: None of the bien-pensants of the […]
Twitter Let Iran’s Supreme Leader Khamenei Stay Despite Inciting Attack on Rushdie
While Twitter banned former President Trump along with a growing list of conservatives, it continues to provide a platform for Islamist terror groups and leaders. Including Supreme Leader Grand Ayatollah Ali Khamenei who used Twitter to endorse Iran’s ongoing murder fatwa calling for the killing of author Salman Rushdie. Let’s recall that fatwa again. “In the name […]
