That’s what is at stake in the historical inquiry into the origins of Islam, and that’s why so many Islamic apologists are reacting so furiously to the book Did Muhammad Exist? Revised and Expanded Edition. Preorder Did Muhammad Exist? Revised and Expanded Edition here.

University of Denver Co-Sponsors Anti-Israel Conference With Admitted Member of Jihad Terror Group
My latest in PJ Media: In yet another sign of the thoroughgoing corruption of American academia, the University of Denver’s Josef Korbel School of International Studies just co-sponsored a conference with a man who admitted to being a member of a jihad terror group, and an organization affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood, which is dedicated, according […]
Yemen: Houthis ban song and music as part of ‘promoting Qur’anic awareness’
The Yemeni Minister of Information, Culture and Tourism (and you know what a tourist hotspot Yemen is) has declared July 1 Yemeni Song Day, but the Houthis are countering by claiming Qur’anic authenticity, an appeal that will resonate with many people in Yemen. Whenever I note that Islamic law forbids music (aside from nasheeds, a […]
Netherlands: Muslima recruited for Islamic State, gets prison and compulsory psychological treatment
Why compulsory psychological treatment? Because Dutch authorities, like authorities everywhere else, cannot and will not face up to the reality of Islam’s teachings regarding warfare against unbelievers. So instead, they pretend that those who act in accord with those teachings are psychologically disturbed. “Six years in prison for ISIS recruitment, propaganda over Telegram,” NL Times, […]
Blinken presses US allies to bring back Islamic State jihadis
Yeah, come on, people. What could possibly go wrong? Sure, they might commit a jihad massacre here or there, but what’s a few deaths compared to the horror of being Islamophobic? “US Blinken presses allies to repatriate Islamic State fighters,” France24, June 28, 2021 (thanks to Henry): Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Monday pressed […]
Australia: Muslima migrant who stabbed man while screaming ‘Allahu akbar’ now stabs fellow inmate
What is being done to disabuse Momena Shoma of her jihadist sentiments? Why, nothing. Nothing at all. To attempt any such thing would be “Islamophobic,” and non-Muslim authorities all over the world have determined that their primary responsibility is to avoid appearing “Islamophobic.” “Convicted terrorist admits stabbing inmate, being Islamic State member,” by Erin Pearson, […]
Malaysia seeks stricter Sharia punishments for ‘promoting LGBT lifestyle’ and ‘insulting Islam’ on social media
It is peculiar how the “woke” movement claims to support human rights, including the rights of LGBTQ individuals. Yet the severe persecution of LGBTQ people under Sharia somehow escapes them, including the fact that members of this community routinely have to hide for their own safety in the midst of “Islam’s jihad against homosexuals.” The […]
India: Muslim poses as Hindu to lure girl and rape her multiple times
“The Prophet said, ‘War is deceit.’” (Bukhari 4.52.269) These “love jihad” incidents are motivated by supremacist assumptions. The idea is that the Muslim community will always grow at the expense of the non-Muslim community, and that because that is a good outcome, any means, including deception, may be pursued in order to attain it. Also, […]
Ilhan Omar has no regrets about grouping US, Israel with jihad terror groups, calls critics ‘Islamophobic’
Not only does she have no regrets, but this was not an isolated incident. “Squad member Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., retweeted a video produced by an anti-Israel organization previously investigated by the FBI for possible terrorist ties.” I She defends accusations against about her being antisemitic with her own accusations that her critics “haven’t been […]
No US ‘investment’ has paid such large and steady dividends as the investment made in Israel
Israel has shared its experiences in fighting terrorism with the U.S. It was the first country that had to plan and execute a long-distance commando raid against terrorists, long before the Navy Seals’ night-time raid, thousands of miles from home, on Osama bin Laden in Abbottabad, Pakistan. Yoram Ettinger offers more evidence of Israel […]
