“The only freedom which is NOT AVAILABLE to me in this country is changing my religion and announcing my apostasy”
Here’s the latest from the Liberated One: …As I have mentioned in my previous profile, I moved to the Middle East when I was 10 years old, with my parents and 3 other siblings. My dad used to work in a bank and retired as an Assistant Manager after working there for 20 years. It […]
Egypt: “Dozens of Muslims” burn Christian houses over rumor of “cartoons mocking Islam” on Facebook
What is your first thought when you see something offensive? It’s probably not to get together with a few dozen of your closest friends and burn stuff. As has been the case in similar incidents, the ease of the transition to violence here all but suggests a rampage waiting for an excuse. Then comes the […]
Shocker: San Fran-area Muslim Community Association’s “authentic” books on Islam preach brutality, intolerance, and jihad warfare
You might think Islam in the Silicon Valley would be extra progressive and tolerant. In this prominent case of “one of the largest Muslim communities in the US,” you’d think wrong. Remember how often our comment-box apologists tell us they’ve never heard of the books discussed below, or that we’re cherry-picking one or two titles […]
Report: Al-Qaeda’s former second banana sends veteran jihadists to establish presence in Libya
They already have quite a few friends there. Along with the havoc they can wreak within Libya, it would be a handy forward operating base for striking in Europe, noting that one of the major figures named below has already spent time in the United Kingdom. This development may also be a chance to bolster […]
Gaza premier Haniyeh visits Sudanese president Bashir, wanted for genocide
Haniyeh is trying to look more statesman-like with this regional tour. There is, curiously, not a peep in this report about Bashir’s status as a war criminal wanted by the International Criminal Court for genocide in Darfur. Then again, Bashir is consistently protected by the OIC and the Arab League. In this regard, Haniyeh is […]
Bosnia’s Muslims urged not to celebrate New Year’s, lest they “violate Allah’s boundaries, and do something their master hates and despises”
The language is notably forceful here as it all but orders people to exercise their “choice” not to celebrate. How long will it be a choice? The Islamic Community tells people not just to avoid celebrating, but to “turn off the lights early and let everyone see you’re boycotting everything happening on that night.” It […]
“Islamophobia” filmmaker refuses to answer questions
As I noted here, Dean Obeidallah is making a film about the trumped-up concept of “Islamophobia,” and he would really like to interview me for it. So after I wrote this yesterday, we had another exchange, and I thought there might be an opportunity for some honest dialogue. So I asked Obeidallah to answer these […]
New York Times Minimizes Anti-Christian Aspect of Nigeria’s Christmas Day Jihad
Here on Jihad Watch, it seems that not a few days pass without a new story of Boko Haram jihadi attacks on Nigeria’s Christians. Despite all this documentation, a New York Times report appearing soon after the Christmas Day church attacks absurdly informs us that “Boko Haram, until now mostly targeted the police, government and […]
“I have spent 35 years in an evil cult and it is so difficult to get over it or put it behind me”
Here is the latest from Shakila, the Liberated One, over at her blog. She is very concerned, as you’ll see, that some Islamic supremacists are saying that she is a fictional character of my creation. While I appreciate her concern, it is not necessary: as we have seen here again and again and again, Islamic […]
