The Christians were kuffar harbi — Infidels at war with Islam — for wanting independence, and hence under Islamic law their lives were forfeit. But jihadis and Islamic supremacists never, ever take responsibility for what they […]
The Thirty-Year Genocide in Turkey
Lindsey Graham was criticized last week for blocking a Congressional resolution recognizing the Armenian genocide, and deservedly so.

Colm Gillis: The West Owes “an Immense Debt to Islam” (Part 2)
Colm Gilllis continues his attempt to eviscerate Boris Johnson for daring to suggest, 12 years ago, that Islam is the cause of Muslim lands falling behind the West: Johnson is correct that many Muslim-majority nations are beset by social and political problems.

Turkey 1894-1924: “Deliberate, state-engineered genocide aided by Muslim clerics and the Muslim-majority population”

Raymond Ibrahim: The Islamic Genocide of Christians: Past and Present
Last Friday, April 24, we remembered how exactly 100 years ago the last historic Muslim caliphate, the Ottoman Empire, tried to cleanse its empire of Christian minorities — Armenians, Assyrians, and Greeks — even as we stand by watching as the new caliphate, the Islamic State, resumes the genocide.
