If poverty really does cause terrorism — a common assumption that has been thoroughly debunked in study after study — then this should send terrorism in Indonesia. “Indonesia pays former terrorists to give up violent jihad,” by Mark Dunn in The Daily Telegraph, June 28: KEY terrorists involved in the 2002 Bali bombing and the […]

Turkey: Man arrested over plot to kill rabbis denies charges, but says he “hates Jews”
Where might he get that idea? Qur’an 5:41 calls them “listeners for the sake of falsehood,” or “men who will listen to any lie.” 5:64 says they are “accursed” for allegedly saying Allah’s hand is fettered. 5:82 says “Strongest among men in enmity to the believers wilt thou find the Jews and Pagans.” And of […]
“Alas, a few months shy of the 9th anniversary of 9/11, it remains easier to pass undetected into the United States than to get into a rock concert without a ticket”
This editorial speaks about the possibility of a jihad attack in New England, but what it says is true of everywhere in the United States, as well as Europe. “Time bombs: Terrorists in New England,” from the Union Leader, June 27 (thanks to Orville): Last Monday, Faisal Shahzad pleaded guilty to trying to explode his […]
U.S. in Nepal reaching out to…Muslims (4.2% of population)
According to the CIA World Factbook, Nepal is currently Hindu 80.6%, Buddhist 10.7%, Muslim 4.2%, Kirant 3.6%, other 0.9%. That’s from the 2001 census. And so the U.S. Government under the rule of Barack Obama is reaching out to…the Muslims. “DeLisi in mosque,” from The Himalayan Times, June 25 (thanks to herr Oyal): KATHMANDU: US […]
Jihadists love Nazism: Turkish supporters of Jihad Flotilla fly swastika flag

Punjab government funding jihad terror group involved in Mumbai jihad attacks
Punjab’s government defies the double-game-playing Pakistani government and openly supports a banned jihadist group. “VIEW: Punjab government funding Jamaat-ud-Dawa,” by Naeem Tahir in the Daily Times, June 26 (thanks to Kisan): The United Nations Security Council imposed sanctions on JuD, declaring it a global terrorist group. Pakistan’s government also banned the JuD on the same […]
Islamic hatefest should open Canadians’ eyes, but it probably won’t
A huge convention expected to attract 10,000 Misunderstanders of Islam to Toronto should wake Canadians up to the nature and magnitude of the threat they face, but it probably won’t — witness this very article, in which Licia Corbella hauls out the slippery and untrustworthy Tarek Fatah (I didn’t quote that section below) and props […]
Indonesian government admits that its jihadist rehab program is a failure
“It is extremely difficult to reform terrorists because we are trying to destroy years of indoctrination and misinterpretation of Islam.” One wonders why it is so difficult. If their misinterpretation of Islam is so clear, one would think it wouldn’t be all that hard to explain that to the likes of Abdullah Sonata and other […]
Former director of Missouri-based Islamic charity pleads guilty: charity was part of network funneling money to jihadists

Dhimmitude doesn’t pay: KFC ditches halal-only menu after poor sales

Dhimmitude doesn’t pay: “KFC forced to ditch halal-only menus after disappointing sales,” from the Daily Mail, June 26 (thanks to all who sent this in): KFC has scrapped its policy of […]
Penn and Teller get scared, show that terrorism works
(Actually Teller is not involved in this, but I couldn’t resist playing on their bit “Penn and Tiller get killed.”) Penn Jillette, the famous debunker, won’t say anything about Islam, because he is afraid that if he does, he will get killed. Then he has the breathtaking audacity or lack of self-reflection to try to […]
UNHR Council OIC ‘Sharia-gate Shipwreck’: Islam will not be crucified at this Council: Reminder why FGM remains 96% in Egypt

Littman: NGO Representative to the UN – Geneva: Association for World Education / World Union for Progressive Judaism * * * * * Having already posted a text on the usual “Palestine and other occupied Arab territories” here, and another on the Syrian Blood-Libel renewal – also item 9 (“Silence that […]
Indonesian justice minister: Jihadists shouldn’t attack in Indonesia, but should go set off bombs in Israel
Of course, he meant that they should go help in the “peace process.” Video thanks to Mark.
Pakistan offers Karzai a separate peace, including Al-Qaeda ally
Seeing Obama’s weakness, Pakistan sheds its mask yet again and offers Karzai a deal including one of his chief rivals, a key al-Qaeda ally. And since Karzai himself has spoken about joining the Taliban, and making peace with it in a power-sharing arrangement, it is hard to see what the downside would be for him. […]
UK jihadist misunderstands Islam, says it’s not a Religion of Peaceâ„¢
Expect that amiable stomach-stapled beekeeper, Honest Ibe Hooper, or Brave Ahmed Rehab, or some other possessor of the Secret Decoder Ring that helps them render “slay the idolaters wherever you find them” (Qur’an 9:5) as “have interreligious dialogue and build bridges with the idolaters,” to go to London forthwith to straighten Anjem Chaudary out about […]
Petraeus/McChrystal: Neither of them have a clue about jihad
Meet the new general, same as the old general A great deal is being made of Obama’s firing McChrystal and replacing him with Petraeus. But let’s not get carried away: this is not General Grant being appointed commander of the Union armies. Both McChrystal and Petraeus represent the same point of view: that the U.S. […]

Dave Weigel, Leftist pseudo-journalist, resigns under fire
In Annie Hall, Woody Allen’s character Alvy Singer says: “Lyndon Johnson is a politician. You know the ethics those guys have? It’s like-uh, a notch underneath child molester.” As for reporters, I wouldn’t say that they’re that bad. Heck, I’ll even grant that they’re a notch above child molester. But particularly when it comes to […]

“Moderate” Palestinian Authority TV host to children: Jews are “our enemies”
