Egyptian Christians riot after government decision to kill all pigs
Further evidence that the wholly unnecessary Egyptian order to eliminate the country of all swine is based on assuaging Muslim paranoia regarding “unclean pigs” at the expense of creating (more) economic hardships for Christians.

UAE bans pork imports to combat swine flu, even though swine flu is not spread by eating pork
Craving unsatisfied The UAE joins Egypt. Since swine flu is not spread by eating pork, this banning seems to be simply an instrument of Islamization and a means to harass non-Muslims. “UAE bans pork imports to combat swine flu,” from Reuters, April 30 (thanks to James): DUBAI (Reuters) – The United Arab Emirates has banned […]

Jailed Mumbai jihadist demands cologne and walks on the veranda

He was just talkin’ jihad, he said, not livin’ it — but he still got life in the slammer
Mohamad Shnewer “told the judge that he talked like a jihadist, but didn’t have what it takes to be one.” However, it does seem that he was plotting to become one. Why wasn’t Honest Ibe Hooper of CAIR or someone like him on the scene to explain to Shnewer that jihad is an interior spiritual […]
