UK: Neighbor says people at house raided by counter-terror police “go to the mosque every Friday”
“They go to the mosque every Friday.” What? But David Cameron has told the UK’s Muslims that jihad terrorism has nothing to do with Islam. How could they have misunderstood the teachings of that renowned imam? And why didn’t the vast majority of peaceful Muslims in the Bedford mosque rise up against these jihad terror […]
Islamic State jihadi says he felt joyous when killing people because “I was killing infidels”
“Anghel said the militants go through a very intensive brainwashing process of Shariah, the Islamic law, and they come out on the other side truly believing that God wants them to kill infidels.” Now where could they have gotten such a crazy, Islamophobic idea? Could it be from Qur’an passages like these? 2:191-193: “And slay […]
Pakistan’s answer to terrorism: show only good news at bedtime
It’s much the same in the Western media. The news must be happy, at least when it comes to the global jihad and Islam. Jihad activity is downplayed, ignored, denied, or ascribed to “militants” or “youths,” while the media focus is on “backlash” against innocent Muslims. Those who call attention to the nature and magnitude […]
Sharia UK: 19-year-old arrested for video showing him burning Qur’an
Would this teenager have been arrested for burning the Bible? Of course not. But the Cameron government is desperate to appease Islamic supremacists — apparently even to the point of adopting Sharia laws governing the treatment of the Qur’an. I am not in favor of burning any book, but I am also in favor of […]
Pakistani officials enraged over “Homeland” portrayal of their country as “ugly, ignorant, terror-plagued ‘hellhole'”
“‘Repeated insinuations that an intelligence agency of Pakistan is complicit in protecting the terrorists at the expense of innocent Pakistani civilians is not only absurd but also an insult to the ultimate sacrifices of the thousands of Pakistani security personnel in the war against terrorism,’ a source said.” If the shoe fits: Pakistan’s ISI spy […]
Russia: Two Muslims imprisoned for jihad mass murder plot against Moscow supermarket
Imagine what a jihad bomb in a crowded supermarket would have done to “strike terror into the hearts of the enemies of Allah” (Qur’an 8:60). “Two sentenced to prison for plotting terrorist attack on Moscow supermarket,” Tass, December 25, 2014: MOSCOW, December 25. /TASS/. The Moscow City Court sentenced on Thursday Feruza Nazarova and Murad […]
Is Major General Nagata subtly questioning Obama’s refusal to acknowledge the reality of jihad terror?
There is good reason to think so, and it would be heartening to think that there is still at least one high-level official who sees the reality of the situation and is unwilling to close his eyes to it. More on this story. “Obama’s See-No-Islam Policy Forces Military Rethink,” by Neil Munro, Daily Caller, December […]
Jordan: Santa Claus arrested for “evangelizing and inciting sectarianism”
A man dressed as Santa Claus in the nation of Jordan has been arrested for “evangelizing” and “inciting sectarian strife” in the Muslim-majority nation. A translation of the Arabic report published December 24 follows: Jordanian authorities have arrested a wanted man, a celebrity known as “Papa Noel” [Santa Claus], as he was distributing presents in […]
Only Muslim Schoolchildren Lives Matter?
[Via FrontPage Magazine] Earlier we looked at “how Western mainstream media enable Islamic terrorism,” specifically by employing an arsenal of semantic games, key phrases, convenient omissions, and moral relativism to portray such violence as a product of anything and everything—political and historical grievances, “Islamophobia,” individual insanity, poverty and ignorance, territorial disputes—not Islam. Another strategy that […]
