Gitmo detainees to be freed in U.S., given welfare benefits

Mar 30, 2009 7:54 am By Robert Spencer

Coming to your neighborhood? Why not? What could go wrong? “Official: Mexico not in danger of collapse,” by Pam Hess for AP, March 27 (thanks to LGF2): […] During his news conference, Blair also said the Obama administration is still wrestling with what to do with the remaining 240 detainees at the Guantanamo Bay Naval […]

Fitzgerald: The “New” Policy in Afghanistan and Pakistan

Mar 30, 2009 7:50 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

The policy announced for Afghanistan and Pakistan depresses. It’s all about training the locals. It’s all about helping them. It’s all about giving them aid, and still more aid, from the depleted, practically cupboard-is-bare coffers of the Americans, and other Infidel taxpayers. Far from reflecting “new thinking,” it is the mixture as before. It is […]

“Conservative” prince edges closer to Saudi throne

Mar 30, 2009 7:42 am By Raymond Ibrahim

Fun time’s over, boys and girls Prince Nayef is “casting a shadow over the Kingdom’s tentative reforms.” Including those “modest” moves, such as the hiring of a female minister. If, in fact, he is known for being a “hardliner,” one must ask: since things like Saudi textbooks under the so-called “reformist” king Abdullah still teach […]

China cracks down on jihad in Muslim Western China

Mar 30, 2009 7:04 am By Robert Spencer

Closing Islamic schools and conducting house-to-house searches. The ChiComs, of course, are ruthless against dissent. Their regime is abhorrent in it authoritarianism and brutality, and certainly Western governments should not imitate it in that. At the same time, China is not hamstrung by politically correct niceties preventing it from even recognizing that Islam has a […]

Pakistan: Lahore attack shows “the question related to extremism in the country has not yet been confronted in an adequate manner”

Mar 30, 2009 5:58 am By Marisol Seibold

“The entire nation must be united in the fight aimed at uprooting extremism.” Vague language won’t win the war. Politically, it is a useful term — nobody likes “extremism.” But as “moderation” is a uselessly relative construct from a strategic standpoint, “extremism” depends on one’s definition of “moderation.” Thus, even after this brazen attack, Pakistan […]

Does “Islamophobia” exist? Nope

Mar 29, 2009 4:02 pm By Robert Spencer

In “Islamophobia is a fabrication” in the Sydney Morning Herald, March 30 (thanks to JE), Paul Sheehan tells the truth about the manipulative neologism “Islamophobia”: I’ve been considering a request from a post-graduate student who wants to do a thesis on Islamophobia in Australia. She writes: “I am researching the topic Islamophobia, and I am […]

Just like us after all: Islamic supremacists in Somalia ban cigarettes

Mar 29, 2009 3:51 pm By Robert Spencer

Better not choose Mogadishu for that major address from a Muslim capital And khat, which has financed jihad activity in other contexts. In any case, maybe this sort of thing is why Nanny State Leftists have such an easy time making common cause with jihadists. “Somali Islamists ban khat and cigarettes,” by Abdulkadir Khalif for […]

Christians inciting Muslims in Morocco!

Mar 29, 2009 3:34 pm By Robert Spencer

Horror of horrors! Inciting them to what? To violence? To hatred? To (gasp) creationism? Naaah. They were inciting them to convert to Christianity. And in a land that respects Muhammad’s dictum “If anyone changes his religion, kill him” (Bukhari 9.84.57), the free exercise of one’s conscience is a crime. Islamic Tolerance Alert from modern, moderate […]

Beware of what you wish for: you might get it

Mar 29, 2009 3:32 pm By Robert Spencer

From this afternoon’s Hate Mail Bag: Robert Spencer: Did you ever stop to think that if we had Sharia Law in this nation stupid and evil (bush/cheney for the uninitiated)might not have been able to create the economic horror that resulted from their inept incompetence? You may have a point, sir! Of course they wouldn’t […]

Palestinian authorities disband youth orchestra that played for Holocaust survivors

Mar 29, 2009 2:46 pm By Marisol Seibold

Speaking of genocide denial, nothing throws a wrench in the works of indoctrination like contact with actual Holocaust survivors. Hence, authorities termed this event the “dangerous” work of “suspicious elements,” alleging threats to the “cultural and national identity of Palestinians.” And all this comes from members and allies of the “moderate,” “pragmatic” Fatah movement. “PA […]

Mar 29, 2009 11:18 am By Marisol Seibold

An update on this story. “Sudan’s wanted president welcomed at Arab summit,” by Brian Murphy for the Associated Press, March 29: DOHA, Qatar — Qatar’s leader embraced Sudan’s president in a red-carpet welcome Sunday […]

Morocco announces end to homosexual tolerance

Mar 29, 2009 9:21 am By Raymond Ibrahim

You see, many in the Muslim nation are “asking for a strong hand against perverts.” Of course, this should not be surprising since the Muslim penalty for homosexuality is death. According to Minhaj al-Muslim (the “way of the Muslim”), “Gay people should be thrown head first off high buildings and if not killed on hitting […]

Mar 29, 2009 9:02 am By Raymond Ibrahim

Muslim lawyer: “Sharia will be implemented in Pakistan, it will be implemented in India and Bangladesh and even down the road in Downing Street”

Mar 29, 2009 8:35 am By Raymond Ibrahim

Behold! Sharia is coming! Moreover, apparently Choudary (who else?) sees himself as Noah: “‘People said look at that man building that boat in the mountain. Now they say look at that lunatic calling for the Sharia in Britain they say the same thing,’ he said in a voice rising with passion and vigor.” “UK hate […]

Shocker: Hamas continues to smuggle arms into Gaza

Mar 29, 2009 8:08 am By Marisol Seibold

Imagine if Islamic states had put this amount of effort and resources over the past 61 years into developing Gaza and the West Bank. They could have created the equivalent of a Monaco or Dubai in those areas. Instead, they’ve opted for perpetual warfare, squalor, and — as detailed below — lots and lots of […]

Mar 28, 2009 10:20 am By Robert Spencer

Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) slams warrant for Sudan’s Beshir

Mar 28, 2009 10:17 am By Raymond Ibrahim

Even though Beshir’s Khartoum government is responsible for mass genocides (not to mention mass rapes) in Darfur, where some 300,000 people have been killed, this story is a reminder that, to many Muslims, “justice” has no “universal” meaning, but rather is about supporting fellow Muslims vis-a-vis non-Muslims, regardless of what the former may have done […]
