All too many people in the West who should be defending the freedom of speech are instead heeding that threat, which will only bring on more threats. As Charb said, it is better to die standing up than to live on one’s knees. “The beheading is hailed as a heroic deed: ‘A warning to all […]
Justice Department orders Al Jazeera’s AJ+ to register as foreign agent for its ‘political activities’ for Qatar
This is most welcome and long overdue. This jihad propaganda outfit has masqueraded for years as an actual news organization, with willing help and cooperation from the Left. Having Al Jazeera operate in the U.S. is like having Goebbel’s Propaganda Ministry opening a U.S. branch in 1942. As Pamela Geller has written about Al Jazeera: […]
Al Jazeera anchor enraged over call to combat anti-Semitism
No surprise here. The Qur’an depicts the Jews as inveterately evil and bent on destroying the well-being of the Muslims. The Jews in the Qur’an are called the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); they fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); they claim that Allah’s power […]
Tunisia closes mosques over coronavirus, Al Jazeera claims “Tunisia has a problem with internalised Islamophobia”
Al Jazeera ultimately retracted this claim, but the entire incident was illustrative of how the “Islamophobia” narrative is generally advanced: any action that is taken, and statement that is made, that is perceived to be in the slightest way opposed to the practice of Islam, including jihad violence, will result in the application of the […]
Al Jazeera spies on American Jews to produce anti-Israel propaganda film, invites Congress to premiere
This is brazen, but why not? This jihad propaganda outfit has masqueraded for years as an actual news organization, with willing help and cooperation from the Left. “Al Jazeera Spied on American Jews to Make an Anti-Israel Film. Congress Just Got Invited to the Premiere,” by Adam Kredo, Washington Free Beacon, February 26, 2020: Multiple […]
Philadelphia: Authorities cave to Muslim group over Muslim kids dancing to chopping heads jihad song, take no action
Jihad Watch has been following the story of the Philadelphia elementary school aged children who danced to a “chopping heads jihad song” in April. It was a demonstration of the violent, hateful conditioning of children that is routine in the Palestinian territories. From the Washington Times in September: A group of kids at the Muslim […]
Slavery Persists In Saudi Arabia
As is well known, slavery was formally abolished in Saudi Arabia as late as 1962, and then only after terrific pressure had been applied to the Saudis by Western governments. And today, when we speak of slavery in the Muslim world, we think of Mauritania (with 600,000 slaves), as the report in the past hour […]
Al Jazeera claims to be feminist, its bosses don’t let women travel without a male guardian
Qatar’s Al Jazeera propaganda outlet has carefully zoomed in on the niche demographic of progressives who love getting their news from a state sponsor of Islamic terror. Al Jazeera writes oodles and oodles of articles and stories about the wonders of feminism. But it’s a propaganda outlet for a totalitarian regime which forbids women from […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: Sunday Night at the Oscars (Part One)
Rami Malek, the son of Egyptian immigrants, won the Oscar for Best Actor last night. Arab websites were both ecstatic about his win, and curiously silent about Malek’s background. Here is the story as Al Jazeera covered it: The actor of Egyptian descent said his win for the role of late Queen frontman Freddie Mercury […]
Al Jazeera, other Muslim-run outlets use old photo to claim falsely that Hindus massacred Muslims in Jammu in 1947
“Palestinians” are not the only Muslims for whom false victimhood is a growth industry. After all, we have seen many Muslims manufacture anti-Muslim hate crimes even in the U.S. When Muslims are not victimized in sufficient numbers to fuel the grievance propaganda that aids jihad recruitment, that victimization needs to be manufactured. “FAKE ALERT: Photo […]
