They were Muslim terrorists. To identify them as such is simply to tell the truth, not to “disparage” an “ethnic group.” What ethnicity are Muslims again? Would a plaque reading “murdered by Nazis” on a soldier’s grave in 1943 be opposed on the grounds that it would be offensive to Germans? This gingerly political correctness […]
European Union set to outlaw objections to Islamic practices
This would, of course, render us mute and hence defenseless in the face of the advancing jihad — and that is just what it is designed to do. Free Speech Death Watch Alert: “Objections to Muslim and Homosexual Practices to be Unlawful in Europe – Media MIA,” by Paul Belien for Hudson NY, October 26 […]

Geert Wilders press conference in London today
“Why strike at the heart of free speech?”
In “Criticizing Islam? Sorry, You’re Cancelled” in Human Events today, Pamela Geller discusses how anti-jihad voices are increasingly shut down these days.
