Boston: Seven Muslims caught trespassing at Quabbin Water Reserve a “criminal matter”
In May 2013, seven Muslim “chemical engineers” were caught trespassing at the Quabbin Reservoir, a key supply of water for Boston, after midnight. Police stepped up patrols. The seven people who were apprehended “cited their education and career interests” as their reason for being there. So it was a field trip, you see. A routine […]
Syrians at site of chem attack accuse jihadist rebels, not Assad, of using chemical weapons supplied by Saudis
There is no way to tell how reliable this is. Certainly the mainstream media, eager as ever to polish Obama’s boots, will not follow up. But the Saudis certainly have an interest in provoking a U.S. attack on Assad, who is a client of their enemy, Shi’ite Iran. “EXCLUSIVE: Syrians In Ghouta Claim Saudi-Supplied Rebels […]

The Europeans are waking up: Surveys show rapidly increasing support for Islam-critical parties
If you think Europe will sleep through its Islamisation, you are wrong. Surveys predict a sharp increase of power to Islam-critical parties in coming elections in several European countries. This reflects the Europeans’ increasingly negative attitude towards Islam and Muslim immigration. This does not mean that the explosion of Muslim violence against non-Muslims all over […]
Pakistan: Christian widow threatened by husband’s Muslim family with Islam or death

Cantoni): Islamabad ( AsiaNews) – ” When […]
New York: Federal judge refuses to throw out terrorism charges against Islamic preacher
A Muslim cleric involved in jihad terror activities? But…how did he miss all the peaceful teachings of the Qur’an?

Obama’s Syrian misadventure kills U.S. special relationship with U.K.
If John Kerry really “knows” that Assad used the chemical weapons, why didn’t he share some of this intelligence data with David Cameron, to help get the Brits on board? When was the last time the British wouldn’t support an American war effort? When was the last time an American war effort was this wrongheaded? […]

Fort Hood jihad mass murderer may be forced to shave
This seems unlikely. He was granted an exemption once. Why wouldn’t he be given another? After all, it is paramount that the U.S. military show respect and make accommodation for the belief system that led him to murder thirteen people, isn’t it? “Fort Hood Gunman May Be Forced to Shave,” by Jennifer Cheng for Time, […]

California: Sword-wielding Muslim screaming “Allahu akbar” charges sheriff’s deputies
Yeah, but what about the Crusades? Anyway, apparently he was under the influence of meth and was having a bi-polar episode, so that’s that. Why so many people who are under the influence of meth and having bi-polar episodes do not charge deputies while waving a sword and shouting “Allahu akbar” was not explained. “RANCHO […]
U.S. military officer on Syria intervention: “I can’t believe the president is even considering it”

Sharia in action in Yemen: Islamic jihadists murder man on suspicion that he was homosexual
Yet Sharia apologists in the West such as Faisal Abdul Rauf and Reza Aslan constantly tell us that Sharia is benign and completely compatible with Western notions of human rights. Such notions somehow never make it to places like Huta. “Qaeda suspects kill ‘gay’ man in Yemen, security source says,” from AFP, August 29 (thanks […]
