For many years now I have pointed out repeatedly that the term “Islamophobia” is an illegitimate conflation of two distinct phenomena: vigilante attacks against innocent Muslims, which are never justified, and honest analysis of the motivating ideology of jihad terror, which is always necessary. The objective of this conflation is to silence that analysis by […]
Morocco: Muslims chase and brutally beat LGBT person

Morocco: Woman accused of insulting Islam invokes the freedom of expression, gets prison anyway
Sharia trumps manmade constitutions. “Woman goes on hunger strike after being jailed for insulting Islam,” Agence France-Presse, November 3, 2022: A Moroccan woman sentenced to two years’ jail for “insulting Islam” in a Facebook post is almost a fortnight into a hunger strike, her family said Tuesday. Fatima Karim “started a hunger strike 13 days ago to protest against […]
Morocco: Appeal court upholds woman’s prison sentence for ‘undermining the Muslim religion’
A glimpse into the future of the West. This is where the Left’s “hate speech” rhetoric is tending. We are very close to this now, far closer than most people realize. For years, critics of jihad terror and Sharia oppression of women and others have been routinely excoriated, vilified, demonized, deplatformed, and shunned by all […]
Islamic scholar: Morocco’s normalization with Israel is ‘mark of shame,’ if king ‘called for jihad, we are ready’
Why can there be no normalization with Israel, in Al-Raysouni’s view? Because of Islam. The Jews in the Qur’an are called the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); they fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); they claim that Allah’s power is limited (5:64); they love to […]
Morocco: Woman gets two years in prison for ‘attacking the Muslim religion’ on Facebook
It is a brittle and insecure religion and culture that feels itself compelled to punish dissidents with prison or violence. That is true in many instances other than this particular one, and far beyond Islam itself. Meanwhile, this sort of thing doesn’t happen in the enlightened West. Here, we are free to criticize any and […]
Morocco: General Directorate of National Security arrests 80 people for publicly eating during Ramadan
Apparently publicly breaking the fast is a national security issue. This is interesting in light of the fact that Islamic apologists in the West routinely dismiss the death penalty for apostasy by saying that apostasy was tantamount to treason in Islamic states, but that isn’t the case in non-Sharia states, and thus there is no […]
Belgium: Official representative of Islam stripped of recognition because of foreign influence
This is a groundbreaking ruling. Islam was recognized in 1974 as one of the subsidized religious groups in Belgium. In 1999, Muslim Executive was “officially recognised as the organisation to represent all Muslims in Belgium.” It is urgent that the West recognize that all too many Islamic groups in the West that claim to represent […]
Morocco: French tourist stabbed to death at market by ‘mentally ill’ Muslim, ‘possible terror links’ investigated
The French woman was murdered as she visited the municipal market in Tiznit, and “a Belgian visitor” was injured. The Moroccan suspect is being investigated in France, Belgium and Morocco. He is undergoing a psychiatric evaluation. Jihadists are often deemed mentally ill for their attacks on infidels because they are indeed “abnormal” by all Western […]
Abraham Accords: The Gift That Keeps On Giving
Four Arab countries – the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan, and Morocco – have now joined the Abraham Accords and “normalized ties” with Israel. While much attention has been paid to the business deals – involving trade, technology, and tourism – made between Israel and the UAE, that in the first year now amount […]
