Pakistan: Thousands riot on rumor of Qur’an desecration
Well, yes, this sort of thing does happen in Pakistan, but remember the thousands who demonstrated against Osama and al-Qaeda, and the “hijacking” of peaceful Islam? No? You don’t remember that? What’s that? It never happened, either in Pakistan or anywhere in the world? What are you, some kind of Islamophobe? –˜Desecration” of holy Quran […]
Tunisian airline bans alcohol during Ramadan
The first of its kind. Ruining tourism — and seen by liberals as the “forced Islamization of the country.” “TunisAir suspends serving alcohol on flights during Ramadan,” by Monzer Beldiafi for Al Arabiya, July 22: In the first initiative of its kind, the Tunisian flag carrier Tunis Air decided to ban offering alcohol in its […]
Ramadan kareem! Jihadists murder five NATO troops in Afghanistan
Somehow these Misunderstanders of Islam didn’t get the memo that Ramadan is a time to “reconcile differences and seek peace.” And oddly enough, they misunderstand Islam and Ramadan in exactly the same way as the Muslims in Bulgaria who somehow got the crazy idea that “Ramadan is a month of holy war and death for […]
Sharia in action: Kuwait hotel reports man to police for kissing his wife
Imam Rauf is no doubt jetting to Kuwait as we speak, so as to explain to these hoteliers that they are getting Sharia all wrong, wrong, wrong, and that it is completely compatible with Western notions of human rights. “Kuwaiti defies hotel security to kiss wife,” from Emirates 247, July 22 (thanks to The Religion […]
Ramadan kareem! Jihadists murder 20 and wound 80 across Iraq
Somehow these Misunderstanders of Islam didn’t get the memo that Ramadan is a time to “reconcile differences and seek peace.” And oddly enough, they misunderstand Islam and Ramadan in exactly the same way as the Muslims in Bulgaria who somehow got the crazy idea that “Ramadan is a month of holy war and death for […]
UK: Muslim prisoners given microwaves during Ramadan, sparking fury among other inmates
“The Muslim lads kicked up a stink last year over the food they received for Ramadan. And guess what? The authorities gave in and gave the green light. It’s a f**king liberty. If the non-Muslims asked for this, they’d be told where to go.” Indeed. “Fellow inmates express anger over Muslims getting microwaves during ‘Ramadan […]
Myanmar: Rape and murder of Buddhist girl by Muslims led to riots, and “it is totally untrue that hundreds or thousands have been killed and that those killed were Muslims”
And then the Muslims claimed victimhood status. We have seen this so many times before. “Rape-Murder of a Buddhist girl by Muslims led to riots: Myanmar Ambassador,” by Mumtaz Alam Falahi for TwoCircles.net, July 22 (thanks to Maxwell): New Delhi: Amidst spreading anger among Muslims in India over the killings of Muslims in Myanmar, the […]
Afghanistan: Muslim kills two daughters in honor killing
Muslims commit 91 percent of honor killings worldwide. A manual of Islamic law certified as a reliable guide to Sunni orthodoxy by Al-Azhar University, the most respected authority in Sunni Islam, says that “retaliation is obligatory against anyone who kills a human being purely intentionally and without right.” However, “not subject to retaliation” is “a […]

Abu Dhabi urges non-Muslims to respect Islamic sensibilities, eschew immodest dress
And that’s entirely reasonable. Remember: in Muslim countries, you should follow and respect the customs and practices of Muslims. And in non-Muslim countries, you should follow and respect the customs and practices of Muslims. Sharia Alert from modern, moderate Abu Dhabi: “Abu Dhabi in dress modestly plea to non-Muslims,” by Anwar Ahmad for The National, […]
Shots fired from Egypt at Israeli troops
A foretaste of what is coming, now that the Muslim Brotherhood is taking power in Egypt. “Shots fired from Egypt at Israeli troops, none hurt,” from Reuters, July 22 (thanks to Ima): JERUSALEM (Reuters) – Gunshots fired across the border from Egypt on Sunday hit an Israeli army bus but caused no casualties, a military […]

In “Rep. Keith Ellison Rewrites History on his Muslim Brotherhood, CAIR Ties,” at PJ Media, July 21, the peerless investigator Patrick Poole uncovers Rep. Keith Ellison’s extensive ties to the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas-linked CAIR, which Ellison is working hard to cover up: The most recent salvo in the kerfuffle between Minnesota congressmen Michele Bachmann […]

Muslims in Thailand misunderstand Ramadan, murder one person and injure seven in bomb blasts
Somehow these Misunderstanders of Islam didn’t get the memo that Ramadan is a time to “reconcile differences and seek peace.” And oddly enough, they misunderstand Islam and Ramadan in exactly the same way as the Muslims in Bulgaria who somehow got the crazy idea that “Ramadan is a month of holy war and death for […]
Silence of Egypt’s President Speaks Volumes
Here’s a different angle on Egypt’s new Muslim Brotherhood president: it’s not so much what Muhammad Morsi has said, but what he hasn’t said. Considering all the anti-infidel talk emanating from those around him — whether calls to destroy Egypt’s pagan pyramids, calls to wage an all-out jihad against Israel, or calls to reimpose jizya […]
Independent panel ignores role of Islam in Fort Hood jihad attack
As Pamela Geller explains in detail here, nothing else but Islam motivated Nidal Hasan to commit mass murder. The official unwillingness to face this honestly is nothing short of criminal, for it will only make future such attacks more likely, since nothing will be done to prevent them. “Report downplays Islamic role in Fort Hood […]
Malaysia’s Prime Minister: LGBTs, liberalism, and pluralism are enemies of Islam
Malaysia’s piously Muslim Prime Minister Najib (in photo) needs to remind the faithful just who the enemies of Islam, and hence the Malaysian government, are. The timing of his pronouncement is no accident, coinciding with the start of Islam’s ‘holy’ month of Ramadan, which started today in Malaysia. Najib has intoned to Muslims, and hence […]
Jihad group claims credit for Bulgaria mass murder: “Ramadan is a month of holy war and death for Allah. It is a month for fighting the enemies of Allah and God’s messenger, the Jews and their American facilitators.”
Don’t these Misunderstanders of Islam know that Ramadan is a time to “reconcile differences and seek peace”? “Qaedat al-Jihad claims responsibility for Burgas attack,” by Roi Kais for Ynet News, July 21: A group going by the name “Qaedat al-Jihad” has claimed responsibility for the terrorist attack against Israeli tourists in Burgas which claimed the […]
Obama reiterates support for Islamic supremacist “Arab Spring” uprisings in Ramadan greetings
It is by now abundantly clear that the “Arab Spring” uprisings were not flowerings of Western-style democracy and pluralism, but pro-Sharia Islamic supremacist takeovers. However, that has not dimmed Obama’s enthusiasm for them. “Obama marks Ramadan,” by Byron Tau in Politico, July 20 (thanks to Wimpy): In a statement, President Obama commemorated the Muslim holiday […]
