Says the Vatican in reflecting the muscular efforts of Pope Francis to fully embrace Islam: “We Muslims and Christians are called to open ourselves to others, knowing and recognizing them as brothers and sisters…. this way, we can tear down walls raised out of fear and ignorance and seek together to build bridges of friendship […]

Hugh Fitzgerald: Mahmoud Abbas: The PA Cupboard Is Bare, But I Won’t Compromise
The Palestinian Authority is now facing financial catastrophe. The Trump Administration’s ending of all US aid — hundreds of millions of dollars –to the PA, its ending of American contributions to UNRWA, and the Israeli government’s decision to cut transfers of taxes on imports it collects for the PA by the amount the PA gives […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: In An Age of Terror, What Is The Responsibility of Glenn K. Beaton? (Part Four)
Still, I won’t blame all Muslims for that attack or for one congresswoman’s stupid remark about it. I firmly believe that to do so would dishonor my decent friends who died that day. “I won’t blame all Muslims for that attack [9/11],” he tells us. But who has blamed “all Muslims” for the 9/11 […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: In An Age of Terror, What Is The Responsibility of Glenn K. Beaton? (Part Three)
All that said, the data does suggest that today’s backward Muslim countries tend to be more violent. But I submit that the reason is that they are backward, not that they are Muslim. When Christian Europe was a backward society in the Middle Ages conducting pogroms against the Jews, the Muslims in the Middle East […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: Tariq Ramadan, Qatar, and the Muslim Brotherhood
Two French journalists, Christian Chesnot and Georges Malbrunot, have come out with a new study of how Qatar spends hundreds of millions of dollars to pay for projects in Western Europe connected to the Muslim Brotherhood. Details of the lavish payments made by Qatar to Muslim Brotherhood organisations in Europe, including furnishing funds the academic […]
Texas: Muslim teen plotted jihad massacre at mall — “we will cast terror into your hearts as Allah commanded us”
“You can move to another country that is not fighting the muslims but of course you want your easy lives in America so we will cast terror into your hearts as Allah commanded us.” “And prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may strike terror […]
Irish bishop: “To define a religious group as being more prone to terrorism than any other group is irresponsible”
There have been 34,772 Islamic jihad terror attacks worldwide since 9/11. In that span, how many terror attacks were committed by people citing the Torah as their inspiration or screaming “Jesus is Lord!”? The irresponsible one here is Kevin Doran, who is trying to shame Catholics into thinking it wrong to note that there are […]
Canada: Opposition leader lambasted for not decrying “Islamophobia” following New Zealand massacre
Canadian opposition leader Andrew Scheer is being taken to the woodshed by CAIR-CAN, which has renamed itself the National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM) and “the leaders of Canada’s largest labour organization,” the Canadian Labour Congress, led by its president Hassan Yussuff, for “emboldening far-right extremists by failing to call out Islamophobia following the New […]
UK: Muslim migrant parents sending their sons to Somalia to avoid knife crime in Sadiq Khan’s London
Somalia has suffered a spate of jihad terror attacks, but these parents still think it is safer for their children than London. Sadiq Khan’s London has become a hotbed of crime. Jihad preachers speak and recruit freely. An Islamic State jihadist “tried to create jihadist child army in east London.” The irony. Somalia is a […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: Robert Azzi, Still At It With His “Ask A Muslim Anything” Program (Part Three)
3. “It says in the Qur’an that a man can beat his wife if she is disobedient. Could you comment on that?” Azzi: “Yes, I’m glad you asked that question. It’s true that some 1400 years ago, and not just in the Middle East but in Europe, men had far more control over their wives […]
