This is the second Islamic apologetics article that the New York Times has published in as many days (here’s my takedown of the other one). When did the Times sign up to be the media arm of the Muslim World League? In any case, here is a quick test of whether what Mustafa Akyol says […]
New York Times celebrates Muhammad, the prophet of Islam, as a “paragon of compassion”
Haroon Moghul subtitles this cynical and deceptive piece of Islamic dawah “The prophet was an outsider. Just like me.” Poor little “Dwayne”! Moghul, a professional whiner who is obsessed with portraying himself and other Muslims as perpetual victims, so cowers in fear of “Islamophobic” coffee servers that he says his Starbucks name is not Haroon, […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: Robert Azzi, Still With His “Ask-A-Muslim Anything” Shtick (Part Six)
9. Mr. Azzi, you have written, and I quote: “In the wake of 9/11, America had a choice: either demonize and attempt to disenfranchise from the global community one-sixth of humanity known as Muslims, or respond, engage, educate and forge partnerships with peace-loving peoples in order to isolate, delegitimize and destroy the criminals that executed […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: Robert Azzi, Still With His “Ask-A-Muslim Anything” Shtick (Part Five)
Question #8C: “You said that Islam as practiced in Saudi Arabia provided inner peace and a sense of security? Where apostates and homosexuals can be decapitated? Where the school textbooks preach hatred of Jews and Christians, where the Shi’a are denounced as Infidels? Where women can’t drive, or work alongside men, and are constantly under […]
Muslim Rep. Ilhan Omar admits she supports BDS, after saying it was “not helpful” before election
The BDS movement is frankly neo-Nazi in its goals, as the Nazis staged nationwide boycotts of Jewish-owned businesses early in the life of the Third Reich. So Ilhan Omar had every reason to distance herself from this movement before the election. But now Representative Omar has nothing to lose. “Muslim Trailblazer Ilhan Omar Admits She […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: Robert Azzi, Still With His “Ask-A-Muslim Anything” Shtick (Part Four)
7. “What do you think is the future of Islam in America?” Azzi: Oh, I’m very hopeful. Yes, I have my worries — I do recognize that there is a powerful campaign being waged against us. I once described myself, at a low moment, as feeling that I had a crescent on my front and […]
Australia: Muslim leader says “Islam cannot be connected with any form of violent acts”
‘The religion of Islam cannot be connected with any form of violent acts.” Unfortunately, Islamic jihadists around the world keep connecting them. “ISIS may draw some of their justification from the religion of Islam. That does not make it a form of Islam.” Odd statement. Who within Islam has the authority to determine what is […]
An “expert” analyst stayed in the CIA to prove Islam was a religion of peace
Farhana Qazi recently wrote a book titled Invisible Martyrs: Inside the World of Female Islamic Radicals.[1] The focus of this book was on identifying the forces that drove women to become terrorists willing to strap on a bomb and kill themselves along with others. It was based on information Qazi learned during her years as […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: Robert Azzi, Still With His “Ask-A-Muslim Anything” Shtick (Part Three)
5. “Could you comment on Muhammad’s marriage to Aisha when she was nine years old?” Azzi: “Oh my goodness. What makes you think Aisha was nine years old?” Questioner: ”It says so, in the Hadith of Bukhari, 5, Book 58, number 234.” (A look of anguish passes quickly over Azzi’s face, as he realizes he’s […]
Pakistan: Professors agree that following Quran is prerequisite to set up an ideal, tolerant society
The ideal, tolerant society: “And kill them wherever you find them, and drive them out from where they drove you out; persecution is worse than slaughter. But fight them not by the Holy Mosque until they should fight you there; then, if they fight you, kill them — such is the recompense of unbelievers, but […]
