My latest in PJ Media:
It’s classic animal abuse, but PETA is nowhere to be found. The Independent reported Tuesday that “the US has stopped exporting bomb-sniffing dogs to Egypt and Jordan after a number of animals died from mistreatment and neglect, US authorities said.” However, the stoppage is only temporary. More dogs are going to be sent to those countries, and more are going to die.
This is because U.S. authorities have no earthly idea what could possibly be the motive of Egyptian and Jordanian law enforcement in mistreating these dogs. The explanation is simple, but since it lies outside the bounds of the military establishment’s politically correct fantasies regarding Islam, it will almost certainly never be acknowledged.
The fact that the decision to stop sending these highly trained dogs to Egypt and Jordan is only “temporary” shows that those who run the Antiterrorism Assistance Explosive Detection Canine Program, “which was established by the US government in 1983 to provide training and supplies to foreign law enforcement personnel,” think that whatever is leading the Egyptians and Jordanians to mistreat these dogs is a passing fancy, and that soon cooler heads will prevail.
Or maybe they think they will have a sit-down with the Egyptian and Jordanian law enforcement personnel and explain to them that the sniffer dogs respond better when they’re not starved or kicked, and then everyone will have a good laugh over this little misunderstanding, and everything will be all right.
The American officials may think all the Americans need to do is explain to the Egyptians and Jordanians that, as a State Department official put it, these dogs “play a critical role in our counterterrorism efforts overseas and in saving American lives.”
There is much more. Read the rest here.
barbaracvm1 says
We do not HAVE to send our trained soldiers to be brutalized. Since the Muslim countries think so little of the dogs, they do not deserved them.
J D.S says
Maybe they are eating the dogs…Halal meat ???
99pct says
Not a chance. Muslims think dogs are dirty and offend alla. How about bomb detecting ISIS prisoners. Give them a chance to get their 72 virgin desert pearls by having them run around landmined areas.
DHazard says
Muslim #5248
…When it was evening Gabriel met him and he said to him: You promised me that you would meet me the previous night. He said: Yes, but we do not enter a house in which there is a dog or a picture. Then on that very morning he commanded the killing of the dogs until he announced that the dog kept for the orchards should also be killed, but he spared the dog meant for the protection of extensive fields or big gardens. (there was a puppy under a cot!!!).
No beer, no dogs, no bacon, no Friday nights, no, no, no……..Islam, the religion that knows no’s.
Lilith Wept says
Know Islam, NO peace
Know Peace, NO ISLAM …
Im thinking of putting this on anT shirt…..
this is one of Mohammed’s idiosyncrasies……his hatred of dogs….
“ It’s All About Mohammed” by FW Burleigh ( a biography of Mohammed ) lists many more, and what Mohammed felt the way he did about certain things, and therefor why the personality cult of Mohammed, called Islam, has so many of these ridiculous prohibitions.
LR says
I think you should put that on a T-shirt. It might be an interesting conversation starter, people both agreeing, and disagreeing.
Richard says
inhumanity is a tenet of islam; look how they treat animals who can’t talk for themselves and how they treat women who are not allowed to speak, let alone seek justice. They hung a lady who killed her rapist attacker; how damned stupid is that? My heart goes out to women in muslim countries who are merely sex toys for the over testeroned arabs who have no control over their bodily functions, let alone their brains. the males couldn’t find their asses at high noon with both hands.
Lisel Sipes says
Simply put, they have NO human feelings. And are about as dumb as dirt.
Carol the 1st says
I watched a Youtube video today where Ayaan Hirsi Ali was being questioned by a group of Muslims (it seems she was still a young politician in the Netherlands) and the subject turned to the issue of her having called Mohammed a “pervert” for engaging with 9-year-old Aisha. Ayaan (who identifies as a muslim) was strong, polite, and poised as always, but the group (several muslimas, about 4 males and possibly some Lefties) argued with her about THEIR sensitivities; what OTHER societies may have done in the past; what the West has done wrong, etc. This went on for over ten minutes and NOT ONCE did anyone in this group show any clear sign that they had ANY care, concern or feeling about what their own young girls may experience and what damage was being done to then. It was all about them and their creed not being treated as they would like – being so sensitive and all.
It made me think of Mortimer and his optimism but you wonder – if a subject like that won’t make them open up to discussion and take a good look at themselves, then what in the world will???
LR says
As far as I know, Ayaan, since immigrating to the West never identified as Muslim.
gravenimage says
Ayaan Hirsi Ali is a brave Anti-Jihadist.
Carol the 1st says
I absolutely expect you’re right and have assumed or read this long ago but the first half minute or so of the video titled “AMAZING!! Ayaan Hirsi Ali Versus Dutch Muslims. ENGLISH subtitles” made me doubt this since she voices too much praise for Islam (saying her mother made her feel this way) and so I chose to use the word “identifies” rather than “is” in my post. Was short on time but a biography check would probably have quickly unearthed how she stands.
gravenimage says
Carol, I know what you mean. There is no doubt that Ayaan Hirsi Ali is an Anti-Jihadist–she has courageously proven this many times.
But she has recently–against all evidence–gotten the idea that Islam can be reformed. This is extremely foolish, and so she sometimes exhibits the same sort of willful denial about Islam as the truly clueless.
Despite this, I still overall admire her. I had a chance to hear her speak in San Francisco some years ago, and am glad I did.
Carol the 1st says
Yes, Ayaan does seem a little sentimental about Islam – disappointing to us but no kind of full-fledged endorsement. It seems she’s an ATHEIST. Similar to Maajid Nawaz she believes change is the only path forward (which may unfortunately be the most realistic and humane choice).
LR says
Richard…No, the problem is too many of them can find their asses, but not their brains. And those a-holes, murder and imprison those who use their hearts, and brains.

Egypt and Jordan Have Been Killing Our Bomb-Sniffing Dogs, and More Are Going to Die
……………..
This is *hideous*. Not only should we not send more dogs into this torture, we should demand that they let us have the surviving dogs back immediately.
Infidel says
Precisely! And there should be demonstrations outside the State Department and the Pentagon demanding that this program be scrapped. In fact, hey, why not ally w/ Muslims, who hate dogs anyway, in demanding that dogs stop being sent to Muslim countries like Egypt, Jordan, Emirates, et al? Muslims would demand it b’cos dar ul Islam is getting defiled, while Infidels would demand it b’cos the dogs are getting mistreated. But same goal!
Carol the 1st says
I think between the lines Robert is suggesting the dogs are receiving an extra dose of ill-treatment because it’s commonly known they “play a critical role in our counterterrorism efforts overseas and in saving American lives.” And perhaps the al-Baghdadi death has something to do with it too? Hopefully dogs can be spared more of this. Hopefully we don’t have to touch that ugliness with a 10-foot pole.
It would be interesting to study some typical Middle-Eastern twins – bring one up in the type of muslim home that encourages brutality and hatred, and the other in a positive, healthy Western home. I wonder what brain differences and reactions we’d see? We do evolve in different ways.
Carol the 1st says
“The Bell Curve: IQ, Race and Gender | Charles Murray and Stefan Molyneux” seems interesting in regard to the issue of genes and habitats versus upbringings. Maybe there’s something more hard-wired in the muslim mind other than just the Koran.
gravenimage says
Considering that anyone can convert to Islam–or leave it, although this is more difficult–I doubt it. One’s IQ doesn’t suddenly change on intoning the Shehada.
Islam is not an ethnicity.
Many Muslims do indeed come from places where IQs are low and inbreeding is rife, which does not help–but the main problem with Islam is its vile ideology.
Carol the 1st says
Murray’s focus seemed more on factors like individual events and almost a genetic ‘personality’ rather than intelligence quotient e.g. how can parents explain the unique individuality of each child. A subtle argument, over my head, but interesting.
Lisel Sipes says
Get the ASPCA and PETA involved since the people running this program apparently have even less brains than the Arabs assholes who do such things.
roberta says
An actual true opportunity to make a change for the better. PETA could really take the high ground on this one. But no. Lets one know the peta real agenda. PETA must be off protecting their crickets, cause that is all Im hearing.
When they can figure out how this is the fault of Pres. Trump, they will start the screaming.
And as if the very first lesson on the very first day of “train a muslim how to use a bomb sniffing dog” was not food and water. If they cant even get that right, then how could they be properly utilizing the dogs training?
What a sad situation.
gravenimage says
PETA *has* come out against Halal slaughter–that’s something, but hardly enough.
roberta says
Didnt know that. I guess it is better than nothing. Probably like most ”come out against” WE STRONGLY CONDEMN THIS….Crickets after that.
Terrorism is effective.
Imagine Halal slaughter in the USA. What a shame and embarrassment.
We have a small farm, we butcher our own, but nothing like Halal.

Carol the 1st says
Glad to hear this as I just finished reading some self-promotion baloney where they speak of kindness and ‘the sharpest of knives’, ‘animal must not be looking’, and I think also ‘no smell of blood’. Like a lullabye for children. The follow-up article will undoubtedly be about the tremendous horrors of kafir abattoirs.
Wellington says
Islam hates dogs approximately as much as it hates non-Muslims. Islam, you know, hates a lot of things.
Let’s see here—dogs, non-Muslims, equality between men and women, freedom, equality under the law between Muslims and non-Muslims, any criticism of Islam, any criticism of the Koran, any criticism of Mohammed, Jews (e.g., Suras 2, 5 and 7 which refer to Jews as “the descendants of apes and pigs”), Christians (who along with Jews in Sura 98:6 are described as “the vilest of creatures”), alcohol, fine pork products, music, conversion by a Muslim to another religion, et al. Oh yeah, per Ayatollah Khomeini, fun too (quote by this old, dead bastard: “There is no fun in Islam”).
Yes, it’s a long list since Islam is simply “superb” where hatred is concerned. Indeed, 60% of the Koran alone is about hating and despising non-Muslims. Way to go Muslims for adhering to the religion which is the leader in hate. And including dogs.
Sickness, thy name is Islam. Many, many times over.
James Lincoln says
Robert Spencer, in the feature article says:
“It’s classic animal abuse, but PETA is nowhere to be found.”
That is correct. PETA will not SERIOUSLY confront Islam – forcefully and head – on.
The reason is: F E A R .
They always go after easier – and non-Muslim – low hanging fruit…
LR says
Can’t say I totally blame them. People know what often happens when they criticize Islam.
tgusa says
How long has this been going on? Probably quite awhile. There are people who were well aware that this was happening. The only reason they are temporarily suspending this hideous program is because it has been uncovered but they will go right back to it when the outrage blows over.
I hear politicians and others say, that’s not who we are, but really, at this point just who are we? As a result of so called American leadership I don’t even recognize my country and its modern values any more. We worked hard to make a better civilization but now we see all of it not so slowly eroding. I feel as if the leaders of the USA hail from an alien culture.
If they will sacrifice mans best friend, animals that will put their lives on the line for us, what else will we be forced to sacrifice in order to get along with sub humans? How low will the leaders of the USA go? Is there any limit to their scumbaggery?
Lilith Wept says
They will continue to believe in the fantasy version of Islam as peace, until moslems have gained enough power in the US ( though infiltrating the political process , and accelerating the Islamification of America or by increase of population ) to actually take over……
Read The Muslim Brotherhood plan…..you can see it play out in every state, every day, in America….
The Islamification is going MUCH slower in the US than in most of Europe and Great Britain …but it’s still proceeding ……with no stopping in site…
Because moslems must be MADE to stop. Why would they stop unless they are forced to stop? Unless we pass laws to ban Islam or somehow stop,its spread? If we just slow it down we are delaying the inevitable…..
Otherwise they will continue until the command of Allah is achieved, to spread Islam through out the world to every country, every person, so the entire world is Islamic.
This won’t happen in 10 years or 15, but it WILL happen sooner than you think if the current attitude toward Islam isn’t changed. Especially as more Moslem get elected to political office, positions where they have power and influence …to spread Islam, and help other moslems in general and to help more moslems also infiltrate our political system and get into a position of power and influence and to the detriment of non moslems ….
Right now we have 1.2% Moslems. Critical mass is around 10-15% of moslems in the nations population. Things accelerate when Critical mass is reached, and it becomes all but impossible for a free western country to continue to be free.
Islamic violence and terrorist attacks toward EVERYTHING non Islamic will accelerate…..Non Moslem will become increasingly afraid. And the free western country will simply not cope be able with the lawlessness , the fires, the crimes……the terrorist attacks that aren’t just against individuals but als goverment, police, etc.
I’m an older person so I’m not concerned for myself, but I’m afraid for my children and grandchildren .
I don’t want them to hate my generation for not stopping this Islamification while it still COULD be stopped.
Battle says
Have Egypt and Jordan pay by contract for our troops or contractors to show up with bomb sniffing dogs as needed?
Battle says

Battle says
Lilith Wept: +100
tgusa says
I can’t disagree with anything you wrote Lilith Wept.
Daniel Triplett says
You speak truth Lilith. They won’t be talked out of it. Not without force.
And you’re right, our grandchildren will justifiably judge us harshly if we sit on our hands, do nothing, and bequeath to them a far more dangerous and desperate problem. Particularly if we hand them a World in which Muslims are threatening them with nukes.
This is a zero-sum conflict, per Islamic rules. The war won’t end until the World is either 100% Islamic, or 0% Islamic. Therefore, 0% Islamic is the only objective that ends the war and gives us victory. The longer we wait, the more limited and desperate our choices of strategy will be.
Many advocate isolationism. But that’s a short-term strategy, not a long-term strategy that solves the problem. It wasn’t a good idea in 1939, and it’s not a good idea now.
craig says
Yes many including Jacobins, communists and Mudlums plot to bring us down. As long as we were true to our constitution nothing could take us down. Now? Pick your poison.

https://www.peta.org/blog/going-petra-5-terrible-reasons-animals-suffer-lost-city/
They don’t appear to have any idea of why this is happening, though–there is unsurprisingly no mention of Islam.
LR says
Most likely playing, ‘see no evil’ monkey. A lot of people don’t want to learn about Islam, or examine it’s problems, and system of Sharia. They just want to believe it’s the ‘religion of peace’ because it feels nice, and they don’t want to be called, ‘Islamophobic’ if they become critical of it.
gravenimage says
Most people in the West don’t even consider Islam to be the problem in Muslim countries. I know when I was a child I just assumed that the violence in Dar-al-Islam had to do with so many of them being “third world” nations.
JMB says
Do all the millions of pet lovers in Britain know that this is how Muslims treat dogs? The Brits love their dogs, there used to be an outcry whenever a dog was hurt or mistreated. It would be front page headlines on their tabloids. Why are the Brits staying quiet on this issue?
Carol the 1st says
It’s a small island and their government has been profoundly selling them out.
Hugo says
All Muslim countries generally treat dogs badly, based on the lead of Mohamed who for some reason hated them. Mo claimed that the angel Gabriel left a meeting with him because a dog entered the house. How did anyone believe the rubbish Mo invented?
Carol the 1st says
Answer: Because a dog spots hostility when he sees it and the brave and wilder dog responds in kind.

According to the koran,it is impossible to go into space without allah’s permission…
“O company of jinn and men,if ye have power to penetrate all regions of the heavens and the earth,then penetrate them!Ye will never penetrate them save with our sanction”
koran 55 v 33
So here is a question for the scholars of islam..
The year is 1957 and there is a spacecraft whizzing around the earth,SPUTNIK 2, with a special little cosmonaut on board…
a DOG called laika
1}Given allah’s well-known hatred of dogs,HOW did a dog get into space?
2}Did it convert to islam?allah clearly must have permitted it,right?
[woof-woof-woof]’la ilaha illa allah…'[woof-woof-woof]?

Linda Rivera says
Islam HATES the HOLY ONE, our Precious, Wonderful Creator who is Pure, Holy and Absolutely Good.
Islam HATES God’s LAWS. Almost EVERYTHING that God FORBIDS in the Bible, Islam/Quran says to do.
Islam cannot harm God, so they perpetrate great suffering on the animals and non Muslims that God created with such infinite LOVE and CARE. It’s how Muslims ATTACK ALMIGHTY GOD,\.
Lorraine E Blazich says
Bring the dogs which should have never been sent to muslim countries home and never send any animals to them again. Sending animals to muslims is cruel because it is a known fact what they will do to them.
