Malala insists that what the Taliban do transgresses against the true teachings of Islam; yet those who adhere to what she regards as those true teachings do not have sufficient numbers or power to protect an event that was to be held in her honor at Peshawar University. Those whom she regards as Misunderstanders of […]

Pakistan: Sikh murdered for refusing to pay the jizya
The jizya is a tax that non-Muslims must pay as a sign of their subjugation to the Muslims, and it is mandated in the Qur’an: “Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, […]
Pakistan: Mentally ill 68-year-old man gets death for blasphemy for calling himself prophet in letters he never sent
Clearly the mental illness is far more pronounced in those who handed down this sentence than in the man who has been condemned to death. The Pakistani blasphemy laws should be an international human rights issue. But no one dares talk about them, because they’re Sharia-based, and so to oppose them would be “Islamophobic.” “Pakistani […]
Pakistani officials used secret counter-terrorism fund to buy wedding gifts, luxury carpets and gold jewellery
Pakistan has in the past funneled to the terrorists themselves the money it received from the U.S. to fight terror. This is better than directly giving the money to al Qaeda and the Taliban, but it shows how seriously the Pakistani authorities take their role in the “war on terror”: not seriously at all. “Pakistan […]
Pakistan: Taliban say nation’s media in “war on Islam,” prepares media hit list
Just imagine if the Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan were in the United States. They wouldn’t be able to believe their good fortune. Christiane Amanpour, Niraj Warikoo, Bob Smietana, Kari Huus, and hordes of other mainstream media journalists would be battling each other to be the first to publish a glowing profile, a fawning interview, a thoughtful feature […]
Some Pakistanis suspicious that Marvel Comics’ new Muslim girl superhero a “conspiracy” to “damage our religion”
You can’t please everyone. But the comparison to Malala Yousafzai is rather unfortunate, since Islamic jihadists attacked her and tried to murder her. Maybe part of the storyline for Kamala Khan could be her eluding Taliban jihadis who are bent on killing her. Conspiracy Paranoia Update: “Marvel’s Muslim teenage girl superhero spurs mixed Pakistani reactions,” […]
Pakistan: Sunni jihadists murder 22 Shia pilgrims in bus bombing
Note once again that when the perpetrators are Islamic jihadists, the mainstream media headlines become extremely coy. The blast hit this bus, as if of its own volition. We are left to surmise who may have set it off. “22 killed as blast hits bus with Shia pilgrims in Pakistan,” from PTI, January 21: ISLAMABAD: […]
Pakistan: Islamic supremacists murder three more polio workers
A Pakistani Muslim cleric has said that polio vaccinations are un-Islamic. And such “extremist” clerics are not just in Pakistan: in Nigeria, a Muslim cleric was arrested for playing a role in sparking the murders of polio workers. These murders are driven by Islamic supremacist conspiracy paranoia. “Three dead in attack on polio team in […]
Pakistan: Taliban gun down TV staff — “We will continue to target the media if they do not stop propaganda against Islam and the Taliban”
This stage of the jihad will come to the West after “hate speech” laws are enacted forbidding people to discuss how Islamic jihadists use the texts and teachings of Islam to justify violence and supremacism. When those laws prove to be inadequate to eradicate “Islamophobia,” the shooting is likely to start. Meanwhile, if the Taliban […]
Pakistan: Rival Islamic jihadists set off bomb in crowded Islamic seminary, killing eight and wounding 67
Shhhh! To examine the belief system that leads to these regular wanton murders would be “Islamophobic”! “Blast at Peshawar Tablighi centre kills eight, injures 67,” by Zahir Shah Sherazi for Reuters, January 16: PESHAWAR: At least eight people were killed and 67 injured Thursday evening when a bomb exploded at a religious centre in Peshawar, […]
