The great irony is that Muslim countries, whether it’s Egypt, the UAE or, in this case, Tajikistan are far more realistic about the threat posed by the Muslim Brotherhood, than countries like the UK, where the Brotherhood effectively operates, not to mention the rest of Europe and America. And when Muslim countries do take action against […]
Tajikistan: Christian pastor imprisoned for 2.5 years for the crime of “singing extremist songs”
In the US, we have a free society.

Mufti of Tajikistan: “We should not confuse Islam with terrorism. Islam is the religion of peace and tolerance.”
Once again a Muslim leader has made this claim that we have heard so often. Propaganda, because it is contrary to fact, has to be endlessly repeated in order to be accepted by the masses. And that constant repetition works: many, if not most, Americans, today believe that Islam is a religion of peace that […]
Russia: Muslim on plane punches flight attendant, says bomb on board, “Pray to Allah! This plane will blow up!”
“His father Saidkadam Davlatkadamov said his son had applied for a Russian passport but was refused. Saidkadam Davlatkadamov said: ‘For some reason, he did not succeed.

American couple that believed “evil is a make-believe concept” murdered by ISIS in Tajikistan
“You watch the news and you read the papers, and you’re led to believe that the world is a big, scary place. People, the narrative goes, are not to be trusted. People are bad. People are evil. People are axe murderers and monsters and worse. I don’t buy it. Evil is a make-believe concept we’ve […]

Islamic Tajikistan draws up “purge” and “morality” register for gays
Tajikistan has drawn up a register of hundreds of allegedly gay citizens and indicated they would be subject to mandatory testing for sexually transmitted infections.

The Department of State announced at the end of August that its Rewards for Justice Program was offering “up to $3 million for information leading to the location, arrest, and/or conviction of Gulmurod Khalimov”, an Islamic State member and recruiter.

Tajikistan seeks to tackle Islamic “extremism” with new classes for teenagers
The subhead to this article is: “Experts doubt the teaching will stop radicalisation.” No kidding, really? In the West, our leaders are staking our future on the success of such programs, even though they have never worked anywhere. A student says: “There are young people in the world who have joined extremist organisations. The main […]
To check jihad activity, Tajikistan cops shave 13,000 men’s beards
This is not going to work: the Islamic State recently directed its operatives in non-Muslim countries to shave their beards and not appear to be ostentatiously Islamic, so as to evade detection. A man may be forced to shave his beard or a woman forced to take off her hijab, but that doesn’t change what […]
Three Muslim countries — Somalia, Tajikistan, and Brunei — now banning Christmas celebrations
“The ban is ridiculous. It projects this image that Islam does not respect the rights of other religions to celebrate their faith.” Uh, yeah. “Christmas celebrations banned in Somalia, Tajikistan and Brunei,” Guardian, December 23, 2015: The governments of three countries – Somalia, Tajikistan and Brunei – have banned Christmas celebrations this year, with punishments […]

Tajik special forces chief who joined Islamic State threatens to behead his brother
“O you who have believed, do not take your fathers or your brothers as allies if they have preferred disbelief over belief. And whoever does so among you – then it is those who are the wrongdoers.” (Qur’an 9:23) “You will not find a people who believe in Allah and the Last Day having affection […]
US-trained Tajikistan special forces chief joins Islamic State, vows jihad inside US
When Gulmurod Khalimov was training in the U.S., all those who were training him assumed that he was a “moderate” who would be a reliable ally against the “extremists.” To have assumed anything else would have been “Islamophobic.” And now he is vowing to come to the U.S. again to murder Americans for Allah. Good […]
“You must kill children without compassion” for the “path of Allah”

Tajik Muslims in Islamic State threaten jihad at home and at Kremlin
“One masked militant said that the video was the militants’ final address from Syria and Iraq and that their next video could be filmed ‘from the mountains of Tavildara in central Tajikistan, or the Tajik capital, Dushanbe — or even from the Kremlin.’” These are the same kind of threats that Islamic State jihadis have […]
Tajik jihadist denounces mullah for saying there is no jihad in Syria
Once again we see a jihadist claim the mantle of Islamic authenticity, and rebuke a Muslim opponent on Islamic grounds. This contradicts the prevailing dogma in the West, that the jihadists have twisted and hijacked the peaceful religion of Islam, and actually have no authentic Islamic justification for their actions. Mainstream analysts never bother to […]
