Recall in 2015 the highly publicized call by Egyptian President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi for a religious “revolution” and reform of Islam, a call that drew global accolades. Sisi declared, among other things: “Is it possible that 1.6 billion people [Muslims] should want to kill the rest of the world’s inhabitants – that is 7 billion […]
OIC stresses need to counter terrorism and ‘Islamophobia,’ says Islam has nothing to do with terrorism
They have to keep insisting that there is no link between Islam and terrorism because terrorists so frequently link the two. In any case, remember this the next time you hear that the OIC condemns terrorism. They very clearly are not referring to jihad terrorism, as they’re assuming that jihad activity is not terrorism at […]
Pakistan’s bid to set up group on “Islamophobia” at United Nations foiled
“The United Arab Emirates and the Maldives together thwarted a Pakistani attempt to set up an informal group of Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) envoys at the United Nations on Islamophobia.” However, they did this not because they believe in the freedom of speech or reject the “Islamophobia” propaganda initiative, but because they believe that […]
UN top dog says countering “Islamophobia” is his “top priority”
“Islamophobia” is a propaganda term that is used for two unrelated phenomena: vigilante attacks against innocent Muslims, which are never justified, and honest analysis of the motivating ideology behind jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women and others. The goal of this conflation is to inhibit such analysis and intimidate people into thinking it’s wrong […]
Kuwait appeals to OIC to “take necessary and urgent measures” to stop “Islamophobia” in India
Jihad Watch reported several days ago that a massive anti-India campaign had been launched across Western Asia and the Arab countries, targeting Hindus for “Islamophobia.” The campaign is rooted in India’s adverse reaction both to defiant Muslims spreading the coronavirus in India, and the history of jihad and the current jihad problem in India, which […]
Muslims begin massive anti-India campaign, targeting Hindus for “Islamophobia”
India’s Islamization problem is rooted in bitter history and current antagonisms. Its Citizenship Amendment Act, along with its warnings about the COVID-19 super-spreader, Tablighi Jamaat, have now become the pretext for a massive propaganda campaign, which in turn has led to a witch-hunt against Indians living in Islamic countries. The vicious campaign is spreading across […]
OIC Secretary General accuses Malaysian Islamic revival summit of dividing the Muslim world
As Islamic leaders assemble in Malaysia to “revive the spirit of the Muslim world” and unite fellow Muslims who are currently at war with one another, their summit has been beset with problems. The summit was intended to do just the opposite: strengthen ties within the Muslim world. But Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Secretary […]
Pakistan urges all Muslim countries to devise joint strategy to stop incidents of Qur’an desecration
They’re determined to intimidate Western countries into adopting Sharia blasphemy laws, and have allies among Leftists in the West who laud themselves for striking against “hate speech,” an entirely subjective concept by which Islamic blasphemy laws are coming to non-Muslim countries. “Pakistan urges all Muslim countries devise joint strategy to stop incidents of desecration of […]
Pakistan to raise Norway Qur’an burning at EU to push for international blasphemy laws
The OIC has been trying to compel the West to criminalize criticism of Islam for many years. Now they see their main chance. “Pakistan to raise Quran desecration incident at EU, OIC,” by Islamuddin Sajid, Anadolu Agency, November 24, 2019: Pakistan on Sunday decided to take up the recent incident of desecration of the Muslims’ […]
OIC top dog demands international law to criminalize criticism of Islam
This is a lot closer to happening than most people realize. In October 2009, the Obama administration joined Egypt in supporting a resolution in the UN’s Human Rights Council to recognize exceptions to the freedom of speech for “any negative racial and religious stereotyping” (a highly subjective category). Approved by the U.N. Human Rights Council, […]
Org. of Islamic Cooperation says “terrorism has no religion,” warns against “hate speech” against Sri Lanka Muslims
The assertion that “terrorism has no religion” only serves to obscure the fact that the Sri Lanka mass murderers were acting in the name of Islam and in accord with its teachings. To ignore or deny that fact is to postpone, yet again, the work of developing a realistic response to jihad terror. “No community […]
UN poised to launch global ban on speech that insults Muslims
Sharia-adherent nations have long “sought a determination from the United Nations that any criticism of Islam or Muslims is ‘Islamophobia’ and banned globally.’” But somehow Westerners still generally refuse to acknowledge the real meaning and intent of the concept of “Islamophobia.” In short, it’s intended to promote the supremacy of the Sharia by discrediting and […]
Organization of Islamic Cooperation urges UN to declare “Islamophobia” a form of racism
Racism is hating someone or denying services to someone gratuitously, because of his or her race. Islam is not a race, and there are Muslims of all races. Islam is a belief system. If the UN goes for this, and it very well may, it will classify analysis of how that belief system incites some […]
Christine Douglass-Williams: “Incalculable number of women” abused for decision to stop wearing full-body veils
In this interview with Sputnik News, Jihad Watch writer Christine Douglass-Williams exposes a great deal about the systematic and institutionalized abuse of women under Islamic law. Indeed, the second-class status of women is ingrained in Sharia, and set out in numerous passages of the Qur’an and Hadith. The Qur’an teaches that men are superior to […]
At the UN, OIC foreign ministers adopt statement demanding respect for Islam
This is a call for the non-Muslim world to adopt Sharia blasphemy laws, and refrain from criticism Islam or Muhammad. The West is either going to do that or stand up and defend the freedom of speech as the foundation of any free society. But which it is going to choose at this point is […]
Pakistan to press UN, OIC for international restrictions on speech in line with Islamic blasphemy laws
“We need a similar policy for this matter so that people do not repeatedly hurt our sentiments.” What group has any protection against those who hurt their sentiments? No group. But Islamic law forbids criticism of Islam, and Pakistan is intent upon forcing that aspect of Sharia upon the rest of the world. “Muslim countries […]
Islamic-European forum examines ways of cooperation to curb “hate speech”
There is no objectively identifiable quantity known as “hate speech.” “Hate speech” designations are used by the powerful to silence speech they don’t want aired. In this case, the OIC is using European Leftist dupes to silence criticism of Islam and force adherence to Sharia blasphemy laws forbidding criticism of Islam. “European-Islamic media forum calls […]
Turkish paper close to Erdogan calls for OIC “army of Islam” attack against Israel
The Turkish daily newspaper Yeni Şafak, which is said to be close to Islamic supremacist despot President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his ruling AKP party, published an article titled “A Call for Urgent Action.” The article called on Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) member states “to form a joint ‘Army of Islam’ to besiege and […]
