Fiend, er, Friend and Ally Update. “EXCLUSIVE: Taliban chief hides in Pakistan,” by Eli Lake, Sara A. Carter, and Barbara Slavin for the Washington Times, November 20 (thanks to Alan): Mullah Mohammed Omar, the one-eyed leader of the Afghan Taliban, has fled a Pakistani city on the border with Afghanistan…
After this post, I decided to write to Umar Lee (with whom I’ve had some interaction in the past) and ask for an interview. Here is our exchange, in which he endorses the death penalty for apostasy in principle, just not at the moment in America. At very least, his…
Ace videographer Dave Miles kindly sent along these superb videos from the Rifqa Rally for human rights and religious freedom, Columbus, Ohio, November 16….
The identity of the masked gunman is not yet known, but the number of threats against Fr. Sysoyev that already existed because of his work among Muslims is itself noteworthy. And Russian prosecutors are also proceeding with the theory that “religious motives” are behind the murder. “Russian Priest Gunned Down…
Still another “misunderstander” of Islam. Funny how that keep happening. “Sixth area Somali man is indicted in probe,” by James Walsh, Richard Meryhew and Allie Shah for the Star Tribune, November 20: A 24-year-old local Somali man has been indicted in U.S. District Court in Minneapolis on charges of conspiring…
It’s not the whole truth. It’s not “Fort Hood massacre was jihad,” although even that word comes up. It’s not an acknowledgment that the attack was motivated by the same murderous ideology that took down the Twin Towers and that threatens Israel and other free nations around the world every…
If you have been paying attention – and even if you have not – by now you know that something is going on in Yemen. You have heard about the “Houthis” – that is, a group of Shi’a, who have named themselves after a leader of one of their tribes,…
Secretary Gates, I can save you a lot of time and trouble: no one reported Nidal Hasan because they were afraid of the repercussions that would come to them in this politically correct age. They were afraid of being accused of being racists, bigots, hatemongers, etc. They were afraid of…
They’re doing it, of course, under the cover of criminalizing “blasphemy,” but the real agenda here is to compel the West to adopt Sharia norms forbidding criticism of Islam, including analysis of the jihad terrorists’ motives and goals. This, of course, would leave us mute and defenseless before them. AP…
Wait a minute. I thought only greasy Islamophobes believed that there was any problem with Muslims in the military. Will Honest Ibe Hooper of CAIR denounce Umar Lee as an “Islamophobe”? Glossary: Kaafir, kufr = Infidel. Deen = religion. Ummah = global Islamic community. Ulamaa = Islamic scholars. Al…
Since the UN, with its OIC-driven agenda, is simply the other side of bin Laden’s coin, this would be a perfect fit. “Britain: Bin-Laden’s son wants to work for the UN,” from AKI, November 19 (thanks to C. Cantoni): New York, 19 Nov. (AKI) – The son of Al-Qaeda leader…
Interviewed by ex-Muslim Nabil Qureshi at the Rifqa Rally, November 16, Columbus, Ohio. (Thanks to David.)…
Interview from November 6 (thanks to James)….
If someone in America points out that such punishments are part of Sharia, he is derided as an ignorant “Islamophobe.” But the Koran is clear: “As for the thief, both male and female, cut off their hands. It is the reward of their own deeds, an exemplary punishment from Allah….
Free Speech Death Watch Alert from Pamela at Atlas Shrugs: Apostate Nonie Darwish, author of “Cruel And Usual Punishment; The Terrifying Global Implications of Islamic Law”. and executive director, Former Muslims United, was scheduled to speak at Columbia University today and Princeton University tomorrow, and both events were canceled. Columbia,…
Pat Robertson said: “If we don’t stop covering up what Islam is. Islam is a violent…I was going to say religion but it’s not a religion…it’s political system; it’s a violent political system bent on the overthrow of the governments of the world and world domination.” I disagree. I don’t…
Quoth the intrepid Obama in response: “… as a consequence we have begun discussions with our international partners about the importance of having consequences.” Yeah. Take that! “U.S. warns Iran of consequences over standoff,” by Patricia Zengerle and Manny Mogato for Reuters, November 19: SEOUL/MANILA (Reuters) – World powers could…
In Human Events this morning I discuss a few things Nidal Hasan’s PowerPoint has in common with other presentations of Islam we’ve seen in the past: Before he killed or wounded 54 Americans at Fort Hood on November 5, army psychiatrist Nidal Hasan had raised eyebrows with his Islamic proselytizing,…
Spying and willful blindness don’t mix. This story would be comical if the stakes weren’t so high: the analysts realize there has to be “some kind of guide,” some “missing” link in the “radicalization” of Muslims, but what? This is because their work proceeds according to the politically correct dogma…
An update on this story. “Florida Man Convicted in Chicago Sears Tower Terror Plot Gets 6 Years,” from Fox News, November 18: MIAMI — A Miami man convicted of plotting to destroy Chicago’s Sears Tower and bomb FBI offices has been sentenced to six years in federal prison. U.S. District…
Sharia Alert. This woman was killed after giving birth, following Muhammad’s example: There came to him (the Holy Prophet) a woman from Ghamid and said: Allah’s Messenger, I have committed adultery, so purify me. He (the Holy Prophet) turned her away. On the following day she said: Allah’s Messenger, Why…
Earlier this evening I spoke at NYU on a panel with Elan Journo. I had just started explaining the jihad doctrine and Islamic supremacism when a young man in the middle of the audience stood up and started yelling and refused to be quiet. When the security guards went…
That’s one way of putting it, with Hamas as intent as ever on destroying Israel, and Fatah’s remaining committed to armed “resistance” despite its attempts at putting on a friendlier face to the Western public. Not to mention the rampant corruption and misappropriation of aid for weapons. No, we’re “not…
Canada welcomes in immigrants and ends up becoming a center for jihad recruitment, eh? “Officials worried group in Canada went to join Islamic radicals in Somalia,” by Stewart Bell for the National Post, November 16 (thanks to Kim): TORONTO — Counterterrorism officials are investigating a group of youths who allegedly…
