Wilders: 80-year-old Muslim who married 10-year-old “is behaving like a pig, just like the barbarous Prophet Mohammed, who married the six year old girl Aisha”

Aug 29, 2009 7:46 am By Robert Spencer

Now this will be interesting. Right now Wilders is playing offense: “The PVV leader wants Verhagen to summon the Saudi Arabian ambassador to express his repugnance.” But expect the cascade of protests and condemnations — from both Muslims and dhimmis — to begin soon. Still, however, this puts those who will condemn Wilders in a […]

Chechen jihadists on rival leader: “the killing of this apostate is a duty for Muslims”

Aug 29, 2009 6:23 am By Robert Spencer

As M. Cherif Bassiouni, Distinguished Research Professor of Law Emeritus and President Emeritus, International Human Rights Law Institute, DePaul University, will tell you, you’re a greasy Islamophobe if you think that Islamic law prescribes the death penalty for apostates. Anyone who thinks that must simply be “hate-mongering.” In reality, as M. Cherif Bassiouni, Distinguished Research […]

“After 14 years of investigating events that took place in Srebrenica in 1995 I can attest there was no genocide over Muslims in that enclave”

Aug 28, 2009 7:48 am By Robert Spencer

The strange thing about this case is that self-proclaimed anti-jihadists who have no trouble recognizing Palestinian “Paliwood” War-Is-Deceit propaganda designed to advance the jihad cause by manufacturing Israeli atrocities, and who even recognize fauxtography generated by the Palestinians, Iran, and others for the same purpose, refuse even to consider the possibility that Muslims could have […]

New Hampshire court orders Muslim child into state schools because of her “vigorous defense of her religious beliefs” — no, wait…

Aug 28, 2009 7:04 am By Robert Spencer

Imagine the headline, the international outcry, the outrage, the riots, the panels on “Islamophobia” all over MSNBC — but relax. None of that will happen. No one will much notice this.

Aug 28, 2009 6:22 am By Robert Spencer

Ah, the exquisite complexity of Islam eludes yet another Muslim, Kadir T., who somehow gets the Islamophobic idea that he has a religious responsibility to wage war against unbelievers.
