In PJ Media, I discuss some who capitulated in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo massacre. In the wake of the Charlie Hebdo jihad attack, some key Western leaders and media outlets immediately fell obediently into line, carefully avoiding saying anything about Islam or jihad that even the most terror-inclined Muslims would dislike, and thereby […]
White House announces Summit on Countering Violent Extremism
This is just yet more absurdity, and will prove to be an absolutely fruitless and pointless exercise. How can Obama hope to counter “violent extremism” when he doesn’t even dare name what kind of extremism it is? On the other hand, he may focus this summit on “right-wing extremists” and formulate new ways to restrict […]
CNN: “Muslims cannot get a break”
You can be absolutely sure: whenever the mainstream media raises the question of whether or not Islam is a Religion of Peace, it will answer that it is, and claim that Muslims are victims of unjust suspicion. But this CNN piece is particularly grotesque: after Muslims murder twelve people for transgressing Islam’s blasphemy laws, and […]
Charlie Hebdo jihad mentor’s wife lives on welfare in UK
She moved to the UK from France in search of a more “Islamic environment.” And what better place to find that than shattered, staggering, dhimmi Britain, where she lives comfortably on the taxpayer dole, aka jizya, even though her husband was actually banned from entering the country? Absurd Britannia Update: “Charlie Hebdo terror mentor’s wife […]
Robert Spencer: Bill Donohue: Those Cartoonists Had It Coming
Over at Dana Loesch’s Dana Show site, I respond to the appalling piece by Bill Donohue of the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights, “Muslims Are Right to Be Angry.” Does Bill Donohue think that Jewish bakeries are also an intolerable insult and must be suppressed? “It is too bad,” says Bill Donohue of […]
Charlie Hebdo jihad attack: Free speech is a microcosm of a much larger issue
Charlie Hebdo jihad attack: Free speech is a microcosm of a much larger issue by Christine Williams Free speech is but a fragment of the issue stemming from the jihad massacre in France, albeit an important one. Although offensive cartoons were said to have provoked these fanatics, there are countless other slaughters happening globally at […]
White House spokesman: US needs to “redouble” efforts to explain the true “tenets” of Islam
I think this is a great idea. The White House should indeed redouble its efforts to explain what the Qur’an and Sunnah actually say. If it did this honestly, this would lead to a massive change in its foreign and domestic policies. What’s the downside? Of course, the problem with this is that the White […]
Ron Paul: Charlie Hebdo jihad attack was a reaction to France’s foreign policy
Ron Paul and other paleocons such as the pro-jihad American Conservative are fanatically attached to the idea that Islamic jihad is all a reaction to the West’s foreign policy — so much so that they have frequently turned a blind eye to the jihadis’ stated agenda, and see the depredations of Western foreign policy where […]
German Interior Minister: Charlie Hebdo murders have nothing to do with Islam
“The extremist Islamism, Islamist terrorism, is something quite different from the Islam. And this differentiation is urgently needed just on a day like today.” On such fictions people like Thomas de Mazière have staked the future of the West and free societies everywhere. If only he were right. “Germany not sure? De Maizière warns against […]
MSNBC: “We have to respect Islam”
On MSNBC, Evan Kohlmann says: I think we need to understand here, there, there has to be the ability for people to be critical of other religions, of other ideas and whatnot. There has to be that ability. At the same time, look, we have to also respect Islam and we should not deliberately go […]
