Afghanistan: Islamophobes Islamic jihadists murder 19 civilians with roadside bombs
“President Hamid Karzai condemned the bombings as brutal and inhumane and said they ‘cannot be justified by any religious faith.’” Yet the Taliban, which Karzai has threatened to join, constantly invoke Islam to justify their actions. This recalls the fact that last year, U.S. Muslim soldier Naser Abdo condemned the Fort Hood jihad massacre, calling […]
Pakistan: Islamophobes Sunni jihadists murder eleven Shi’ites in a minibus
This kind of mass murder has become so commonplace in some Islamic countries that it is hardly even noticed. And certainly no one care to explore its motivations. Sunni/Shi’ite Jihad Update: “Gunmen kill 11 Shiite Muslims in SW Pakistan,” from The Associated Press, July 30: QUETTA, Pakistan””Gunmen opened fire on a minibus carrying minority Shiite […]
Secularist Turkish military chiefs resign amid coup prosecutions
KoÅŸaner was a hardline secularist. Traditionally the military has been the guardian of Kemalist secularism. But now several military officers have been arresting for plotting to overthrow the government. Erdogan has won, and Turkey is on its way to becoming an Islamic state. “Necdet Özel becomes acting Chief of General Staff after mass resignations,” from […]
Shocker: Anti-semitism mars Malaysian football match with British club
In Malaysia, antisemitism is not just the characteristic of former prime ministers. Nor does it characterize solely the government, or the (unholy) Leftist-Islamist political opposition. No, Jew hatred is a defining feature of Islam as a whole, and hence is characteristic of many if not most Malaysians in general. This became especially clear in a […]
Egypt: Banners in Tahrir Square read “Sharia above the constitution”
Gearing up, they hope and expect, for the revolution after the revolution. More on this story. “Groups quit Egypt rally saying hijacked by Islamists,” by Edmund Blair and Marwa Awad for Reuters, July 29: (Reuters) – More than 30 political parties and movements withdrew from a rally on Friday that was organized to send a […]
U.N. names Hizballah figures indicted in Hariri case
Interpol has already issued a “red notice” for their arrests. Now that the four Hizballah men have been officially named, Lebanon has until August 11 to inform the U.N. tribunal of the action they will take. In a Hizballah-dominated government, the scope of possible responses is considerable. They may well attempt to buy time indefinitely […]
“Islamists,” and former allies, suspected in assassination of Libyan rebel chief

Muslim soldier who plotted new jihad mass murder at Fort Hood shouts “Nidal Hasan Fort Hood 2009” while leaving courtroom today
Last year, Abdo condemned the Fort Hood jihad massacre: “Abdo’s words in court were a sharp contrast to an essay he wrote last year as the first anniversary of the Fort Hood shootings approached and as he petitioned for conscientious objector status. In the essay, obtained by The Associated Press, Abdo said the attacks ran […]
Who Is Lee Silver? Ask Anders Breivik
Who Is Lee Silver? Ask Anders Breivik by David Klinghoffer Our local NPR station here in Seattle plays the BBC Newshour after lunch and I happened to be in my car listening when the interview with Robert came on, startlingly all but crediting him as special mentor or private tutor to Anders Breivik. Well, the […]
Hundreds of thousands demonstrate in Cairo, demand Islamic state
Note the frequent use of “ultraconservatives” in this piece. Again, for AP, to be “ultraconservative” means to want Sharia, and to be “ultraconservative” means to resist Sharia. I tried to tell you: “Thousands demonstrate for an Islamic state in Egypt,” by Ben Hubbard for The Associated Press, July 29 (thanks to Pamela Geller): Calls for […]
Raymond Ibrahim: Rationalizing Pedophilia in Islam
Earlier this month we saw–or rather, were once again reminded–that Islam permits pedophilia in the guise of “marriage”: Top Saudi cleric, Dr. Salih bin Fawzan, issued a fatwa asserting that there is no minimum age for girls to marry, “even if they are in the cradle,” and that the only criterion is that “they are […]
The Malaysian response to the Norwegian massacre
Events in far-off Norway, namely the horrific double-attack and massacre of innocents about one week ago, have elicited a response from the Malaysia government in what is officially described as a ‘strong condemnation’. And for Malaysia’s government, it is largely as advertised, a sternly-worded condemnation, but with a dollop of treacherous taqiyya thrown in for […]
FBI adopts Lysenkoism as official policy
It is no surprise that in an official environment that refuses to speak about “Islam” and “terrorism” in the same sentence — a policy which must involve quite a lot of mental and verbal gymnastics when jihad terrorists start quoting Qur’an and other Islamic sources — that the truth about Islam would be ruled out […]
“AWOL Fort Campbell soldier” admits plans for massacre at Fort Hood
To review: he obtained conscientious objector status against being deployed to Iraq after saying “his Muslim beliefs prevented him from fighting.” But he was willing and able to travel to Texas to attempt to pick up where Nidal Malik Hasan left off and slaughter more soldiers at Fort Hood. An update on this story. “Army: […]
Indonesia: Members of frenzied mob that killed 3 Ahmadis get a few months in jail
The attack was videotaped as a crowd shouted “Allahu akbar!” and young boys recorded it on their mobile phones. The savagery of the murders did not lead, as one would logically expect, to enhanced protection of Ahmadis within Indonesia, but to the opposite. They were essentially blamed for causing the attacks by existing, and banned […]
African Union troops intervene after Somali jihadists threaten aid camps
Al-Shabaab’s conduct is reminiscent of the Saudi religious police who beat schoolgirls back into a burning building rather than letting them out sinfully unveiled. But the Somali jihadists are causing suffering and death on a much larger scale, in what they say is an effort to keep out the “Christian” influence of Western-based charities. Indeed, […]
U.S. special ops commander warns of al-Qaeda’s next generation
Al-Qaeda, the Next Generation. Purists will say it could never top The Old Series. Despite being the number-one brand name in global jihad, al-Qaeda’s ideology is not of its own invention, and that is ultimately the source of its resilience. It is a waste of precious time that even being able to discuss the jihad […]
U.S. accuses Iran of striking deal with al-Qaeda
A gentlemen’s agreement, minus the gentlemen. “U.S. accuses Iran of aiding al-Qaeda,” by Joby Warrick for the Washington Post, July 28: The Obama administration said Thursday that Iran is helping al-Qaeda funnel cash and recruits into Pakistan for its international operations, the most serious U.S. allegation to date of Iranian aid to the terrorist group.

New Fort Hood jihadi on ABC News last year: wants to “put a good positive spin out there that Islam is a good, peaceful religion”
And how better to do that than by murdering a few Infidels? An update on the conscientious objector who got out of the Army so he could avoid killing his fellow Muslims, but evidently wanted to kill large numbers of non-Muslims at Fort Hood. War Is Deceit Update: “Devout Muslim Soldier Hopes to Avoid Deployment […]
