“Yet most Muslims do not commit acts of violence. If Islam is intrinsically violent then roughly a billion believers either do not understand their own religion, or are too cowardly or unfaithful to follow its precepts. That is my sarcasm but, indeed, this is what violent Islamists say.” — From this article As is his […]
Iran’s elections: Contrary to media reports, “in the Assembly of Experts, the radicals won 75 percent of the seats”
There are no genuine moderates among Iran’s ruling elites. Nonetheless, the Washington establishment keeps pretending that there are. The idea that Rouhani is a moderate is the most laughable manifestation of this, as I show in my forthcoming book The Complete Infidel’s Guide to Iran. “The search for elusive Iranian moderates,” by Clifford D. May, […]
Jonathan Power and the “Expressio Unius…”
Jonathan Power, a well-known foreign-affairs columnist for the past 30 years, whose work now appears in 40 papers, has latterly become a prominent Defender of the Faith (that faith being Islam), and has just produced one more of those bizarre defenses of Islam that we long-suffering Infidels keep receiving, world without end. In his latest […]
Minnesota: Youth sports, jobs, mental health groups get cash to fight terror
This will fix the problem right up. A young Muslim who has become convinced that it is his responsibility before Allah to “strike terror into the hearts of the enemies of Allah” (Qur’an 8:60) and “fight until religion is all for Allah” (Qur’an 8:39) will give it all up for a job at Walmart and […]
Obama: I’m more worried about climate change than the Islamic State
Priorities that are likely to come back and bite him. “OBAMA: I’m more worried about climate change than ISIS,” by Rob Wile, Fusion, March 10, 2016: In a new interview published in The Atlantic magazine, President Obama says he is more worried about climate change than the terrorist group ISIS. “ISIS is not an existential threat […]
New Jersey: Muslims, Jews break bread together at synagogue, Muslims pray in Jewish sanctuary
“When the Jewish women left the sanctuary to begin setting up for dinner, the Muslims stayed behind to lay out mats for their evening prayers facing the ark, which points in the direction of both Jerusalem and Mecca.” How delightfully broad-minded and ecumenical. But why did the Muslims only pray after the Jews left? Could […]
UK’s Sharia courts run by clerics who support amputation for theft, child marriage, marital rape, wife-beating
And the British are surprised by this, because they have assumed all these years that Sharia is benign and completely compatible with Western pluralistic societies, and that only greasy Islamophobes thought otherwise. In reality, these Sharia courts are simply administering Islamic justice as it is set out in the Qur’an and Sunnah: Amputation for theft: […]
Toronto Star now calls the Islamic State “Daesh” instead of “the Islamic State” or “ISIS”
The name that the Islamic State calls itself is…the Islamic State. The Star has chosen to obscure this because “the criminal gang that has murdered, raped and pillaged its way across the Middle East, while sending sycophants to slaughter civilians abroad, is neither Islamic nor an internationally recognized state.” Yet everything it does, it patterns […]
Germany: Two Muslim migrants arrested for sexually assaulting teen girls at pool where migrants molested girls before
“This is the second alleged incident involving foreigners at the Arriba swimming pools in just 18 months. In June 2014, a group of seven young immigrant men attacked five schoolgirls aged between 15 and 17, grabbing their breasts and buttocks and ripping the bikini top from one of them in the exact same spot where […]
Boston Marathon jihad murderer passed US citizenship test and denied terror links 3 months before bombing
But the government assures us it is going to vet the huge number of Muslim refugees that Obama is bringing into the United States, and make sure there are no jihad terrorists among them. How are they going to do that? “Federal files leave questions about Marathon bomber, friend,” by Maria Sacchetti, Boston Globe, February […]
