And the Leftist thugs who shouted down David Horowitz were nowhere in evidence, of course. Not that they would have wanted to turn out to protest a speech by an apologist for jihad terror — and meanwhile, Emory’s President James Wagner pretended that conservative students were just as likely to behave like fascist thugs as […]

Head of Austria’s Green Party refuses to associate terrorism with Islam
Hey, this is great! Alexander Van der Bellen won’t associate Islam with terrorism! Now if we can just get all the Islamic jihadists around the world to agree not to do so either, we’ll really be making progress! More on this controversy: “Head of the Green Party refuses to associate terrorism with Islam,” by Abdelwahab […]
Netherlands: Five freed on jihad charges
And after a month, what will prevent her from spreading “provocative texts” again? “Five freed on jihad charges,” from Dutch News (thanks to the Constantinopolitan Irredentist): A court in Rotterdam has freed five out of six people charged with recruiting for an armed jihad, or holy war. The court said the public prosecution department had […]
Bush proposes sixfold increase in aid to the Palestinians
Maybe he thinks that if we throw enough money at Fatah, it really will become moderate. “Aid Request Emphasizes U.S. Support of Palestinian Authority Leadership,” by Glenn Kessler in the Washington Post (thanks to Pamela): President Bush has proposed a sixfold increase in aid to the Palestinians, including $150 million in direct cash transfers to […]
EU subsidizing anti-Israel groups
All the recent controversy about who is and who isn’t a neo-Nazi in Europe should consider whether or not the EU itself can be counted into the neo-Nazi group, or at very least harbors policymakers with such sentiments. “Guess who Europe’s subsidizing?” by Manfred Gerstenfeld in the Jerusalem Post (thanks to Looney Tunes): The European […]
UK: School orders teachers to dress in Muslim garb to celebrate Eid
It’s OK. I’m sure they all dress as monks and nuns for Christmas. “Teachers’ Muslim dress order,” from The Sun, with thanks to all who sent this in: A SCHOOL was yesterday accused of MAKING teachers dress up as Asians for a day — to celebrate a Muslim festival. Kids at the 257-pupil primary have […]
Evil bloggers, including Jihad Watch, force new Cleveland imam to resign!
Not really, of course. I never called for him to resign, much less force him to do so. I did call attention to things that he admits to having said. But AP, characteristically, puts the blame on Jihad Watch and Patrick Poole, as if we trumped up the charges. Just imagine if an anti-jihadist made […]
Germany battles jihad…with a comic book
Emblematic of the general unserious response in the West to the ideological challenge from the jihadists. You’ll notice that the problem all comes from the young man being unable to find a job — in other words, jihadism is all the West’s fault, and the West can put an end to it with the proper […]
Spencer: Pols Pander at Arab American Institute Conference
My column this week in Human Events: The Arab American Institute held its national conference in Detroit over the weekend, and presidential hopefuls Bill Richardson, Dennis Kucinich and Ron Paul were there. Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and John Edwards addressed the conference via video hookup. Obama also sent an adviser, Tony Lake, and Edwards sent […]
Indonesia: Arrest of seven ‘dangerous’ Muslims
“The sect believes that praying once a day is sufficient for Muslims and also calls for a revision of the current interpretations of the Koran.” Oh, the horror! Wouldn’t it be refreshing if somewhere, anywhere, Muslim authorities cracked down this hard on the jihadists? From AKI (thanks to Twostellas): Jakarta, 30 Oct. (AKI) — Ahmad […]
