The modern state of Israel declared its independence on May 14, 1948. May 14 is when it quite reasonably celebrates its Independence Day. There is nothing unusual about this. But the anti-Israel group Jewish Voice for Peace finds the timing of this annual observance sinister. More on their malignant confusion can be found here: “Anti-Israel […]

Bangladesh: Hindu woman gets five years prison for insulting Muhammad on Facebook, she says her account was hacked
Tithy Sarkar had little chance of getting a fair trial in Islamic Bangladesh. The accusation of blasphemy is widely taken as proof of guilt, as it is in Pakistan. “Is Bangladesh becoming new Pakistan? Hindu girl sentenced to 5 years in jail over accusation of ‘blasphemy,’” OpIndia, May 14, 2024: Four years after a Bangladeshi […]
Afghanistan: Taliban extorts money on false charges of moral corruption
Islam’s critique of the West often centers on charges of immorality. The West is a sinkhole of perversion and corruption while the Islamic world is pious and pure. Yet Islamic morality is really just the conformity of fear, and the occasion for immense hypocrisy, as in this case. “Taliban extorting money in false charge of […]
Egypt Blocks Aid to Gaza, the Media Blames Israel
Israel took over the Rafah Crossing between Gaza and Egypt last week, in order to make sure that Hamas could not smuggle in weapons through that route, and also to ensure that Hamas would not hijack aid shipments just after they came into Gaza. The Egyptians, however, displeased at the IDF’s move, decided to retaliate […]
India: Muslim murders his 18-year-old daughter by slicing her neck for having a boyfriend
The victim, Suhana, clearly angered Mohammad Shahid so much by having a boyfriend rather than, presumably, simply submitting to an arranged marriage, that it made him believe that she had transgressed this Qur’anic dictate: “And it is not fitting for a believing man or a believing woman, when Allah and his messenger have settled a […]
France: Statue of Virgin Mary beheaded and fire set in Sainte-Thérèse church in Poitiers
Leftists have in recent years indulged in several orgies of destroying statues, but their favored method of destruction is pulling them down, not beheading them. Still, a Leftist may have done this, but could it have anything to do with the introduction into France of a large population of people who believe that Christianity is […]
‘This Is a Queer Planet’: NBCUniversal’s Peacock Releases New Series on Gay Animals
New in PJ Media: Birds do it, bees do it, even NBCUniversal’s Peacock does it.

Time for the Bud Light Treatment: NFL Denounces Player for Advocating Traditional Values
New in PJ Media: Harrison Butker, a kicker for the Kansas City Chiefs, is in a heap of trouble these days.

In Michigan, Leftists Have Started Knocking on Doors in the Middle of the Night
New in PJ Media: It’s a hallmark of totalitarian regimes. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn wrote about it in his monumental exploration of the nightmare of totalitarianism, “The Gulag Archipelago”: “The sharp nighttime ring or the rude knock at the door. The insolent entrance of the unwiped jackboots of the unsleeping State Security operatives.” The left has now adopted […]
Hizballah top dog: If Israel invades Lebanon, Lebanese will target Americans ‘wherever they may find them’
And of course the Southern border is wide open. “Kill them wherever you find them” (Qur’an 2:191, 4:89, cf. 9:5). “Hizbullah Official Nawaf Mousawi: If Israel Invades Lebanon – Hizbullah Will Retaliate Against Americans Wherever They May Find Them,” MEMRI, May 13, 2024: Hizbullah official Nawaf Mousawi threatened in a May 13, 2024 show on […]
Holocaust Memorial in Paris Defaced with Bloody Handprints
Some Muslims are deeply upset when the Holocaust is discussed. Not because they don’t approve of the outcome. No, it upsets them because they are afraid that such discussions can only increase sympathy for the Jews. Many Muslims were pro-Nazi during World War II. Hajj Amin al-Husseini, the leader of the Palestinian Arabs from the […]
Islamic Republic of Iran: Sharia police beat little girl for wearing a short-sleeved t-shirt
Non-Muslim women in Britain, France, and Germany will need a certain period of adjustment. But they’ll learn, just as Iranian women did after 1979. A video obtained by @IranIntl shows morality police forces violently beating a little girl in Fadak Park of Boroujerd, western Iran, because she was wearing a t-shirt with short sleeves. The […]
Subliterate Nincompoop Lizzo Stands Up For ‘Palestine’
France: Church was used as a squat for six months and has now been desecrated and damaged
These squatters were most likely migrants, who were overwhelmingly Muslim. Why? Because they would have contempt for a church, where the false religion of Christianity (see Qur’an 4:157, 4:171, 5:17, 5:72, 9:30) is preached. This could be the work of other people altogether, but the contempt for the church building does strongly suggest it is […]
Pakistan: Muslim pushes Christian employee into chaff cutter, tearing off her ear, she is denied justice
Christians are always at risk in Pakistan. Muslims such as Muhammad Mustafa know that the authorities will side with them. They can abuse Christians with impunity. “Justice Denied Christian Woman Cast into Chaff Cutter in Pakistan,” Morning Star News, May 15, 2024: LAHORE, Pakistan (Christian Daily International–Morning Star News) – Saima Bibi was serving tea […]
Biden’s Impeachable ‘Foreign Oil’ Policy
One long string of ‘quid-pro-quos’ that have led to international wars and terrorism. Five years after Trump was impeached over accusations that he pressured Ukraine for political reasons, Biden is pressuring Ukraine for political reasons with no impeachment in sight. Recent reports in the UK’s Telegraph and Financial Times suggest that Biden is demanding that Ukraine stop attacking Russia’s […]
Indonesia: Muslims attack Catholic students with knives
If the perpetrators and victims had been reversed, which they would not be and should not be, this would be international news. As it is, you’ll only hear about it here. “Muslims Attack Catholic Students with Knives in Indonesia,” Morning Star News, May 8, 2024: SURABAYA, Indonesia (Morning Star News) – Two young women were […]
