Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Hugh Fitzgerald: Rashida Tlaib and Jefferson’s Qur’an

By

Rashida Tlaib, the newly-elected Democratic congresswoman from Michigan, was sworn in yesterday on the Qur’an once owned by Thomas Jefferson. She claims this Qur’an shows that “Muslims were there at the beginning.” The only thing that Jefferson’s Qur’an shows is that he was curious about all sorts of things, and that, among those things, was […]

Turkey’s Religious Affairs top dog decries “anti-Islamic discourses” that “threaten the multiculturalism of Europe”

By

“The recent increase in racial movements and anti-Islamic discourses and actions in Europe threaten the multiculturalism of Europe, the culture of living together, peace and tranquility,” said the leaned Erbaş. He didn’t say anything about multiculturalism in Turkey, which has practiced ruthless ethnic cleansing of religious and ethnic minorities for over 100 years, nearly effacing […]

Muslim Council of Britain on Manchester jihad attack: “it is unclear what the motives are behind this”

By

Our statement on the knife attack at Manchester Victoria Station pic.twitter.com/oAIn0l5mV8 — MCB (@MuslimCouncil) January 1, 2019 The knifeman was screaming “Long live the caliphate. Allahu akbar.” How much clearer could his motive be? Why are British authorities in such denial about what is obviously a jihad attack? One reason is that Muslim leaders in […]

Muslim Rep. Rashida Tlaib to be sworn in on Jefferson’s Qur’an: “Muslims were there at the beginning”

By

Tlaib’s statement here is part of the ongoing effort to rewrite early American history to put Muslims in it, and to recast Thomas Jefferson as an Islamophilic multiculturalist. Reality was different. Jefferson owned a Qur’an because he understood that one must know one’s enemy in order to know how to defeat him. In 1786, Jefferson […]

Fatah top dog: Christmas is “permanent Palestinian symbol. This tree is the symbol of the first Palestinian, Jesus”

By

Saying that Jesus was the first Palestinian is a tacit admission that there is no Palestinian nationality, since Jesus is not considered by anyone to be the father of a race of people. This is just political posturing which will appeal to the professional victimhood industry: to be “Palestinian” is to be oppressed, you see, […]

Christianity Today touts ancient forged document as basis for “Muslim-Christian peace today”

By

Christianity Today has been taken in by sharpies who aren’t telling it the truth. Mark Durie is right: the document that this story is primarily about is “pious propaganda.” The ancient covenant Muhammad supposedly made with Christians, known as the Achtiname, is indeed supposed to have been written by Muhammad around 628 to the monks […]

Hugh Fitzgerald: A Few Questions for Shahid Shafi

By

These questions should ideally be addressed to Dr. Shahid Shafi at a public hearing, in the most courteous, non-confrontational, we-just-want-to-clarify-a-few-things manner — not that, given his pattern thus far, he is likely to answer them. Here are some questions that come to mind: 1. Dr. Shafi, in saying your five daily prayers, you — and […]

France: Muslim cleric says it’s “impossible” that “Allah allows us to kill someone…Islam is a religion of peace”

By

The Qur’an forbids Muslims to kill other Muslims (4:92), but of course Cherif Chekatt did not set out in Strasbourg to kill Muslims, but non-Muslims. Kamal Naghchband was, alas, collateral damage, but at his funeral, the imam Eyup Sahin seized the opportunity to enunciate some general principles: “Do you think that Allah allows us to […]
