If this request is to be considered, no mosque should qualify if it spreads Islamic doctrines that are opposed to Germany’s constitution. It is well documented that a number of mosques in Western countries do that, and are either funded or subsidized by countries including Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Iran. Turkey “largely funded the construction […]
Turkey: Judeopathy raises its ugly head again

Pakistan mosques to stay open for Ramadan: “The mosque is a safe place. I am not afraid of the coronavirus.”
The government of Pakistan has decided to capitulate to Islamic clerics and leave mosques open for Ramadan, with the hope that its citizens will decide for themselves to stay home and pray, or otherwise be careful not to spread coronavirus, should they decide to attend mosque.

Pope calls for sanctions relief for the Islamic Republic of Iran after receiving a request from an ayatollah
The Pope has decided to do Iran’s bidding, after Ayatollah Mostafa Mohaghegh Damad “wrote to Pope Francis in mid-March appealing to him help end U.S. sanctions on Iran.” In response, “Pope Francis called for relaxed international sanctions during his Easter message.” Yet more money flowing into Iran means more murder, more threats to the region, […]
Pakistan: Christians facing starvation for refusing to convert to Islam
Jihad Watch reported at the beginning of this month that Saylani Welfare International Trust in Karachi was denying food aid to poor Hindus and Christians amid the coronavirus pandemic. “The reason for this is that Zakat, Islamic alms giving (one of Islam’s five pillars), is reserved for Muslims.” Then came the report that Christians and […]
Pakistan: Amid coronavirus, government launches “Islam friendly” action plan to keep mosques open for Ramadan
While deciding to keep all mosques open, the Pakistani government vowed to adhere to “precautionary measures to stop the spread of the coronavirus.” How they intend to do this is unclear.

Bangladesh: Over 100,000 gather for funeral of Islamic teacher, defying coronavirus lockdown

Iran: “Islamic medicine specialist” says camel urine cures coronavirus
Mehdi Sabili believes this because he thinks Muhammad said it. This is a Sunni hadith, but the same saying can be found in the Shi’ite hadith books: “The climate of Medina did not suit some people, so the Prophet ordered them to follow his shepherd, i.e. his camels, and drink their milk and urine (as […]
Egyptian Muslim cleric: “Oh Allah, relieve the Islamic nation of the coronavirus, use it to annihilate the infidels”
If a preacher of any other faith had thanked the deity for the coronavirus and wished it upon those outside the fold, it would have been international news. But no one will take any particular notice of this. “Egyptian Islamic Preacher Mohammed Al-Hefnawi Al-Ansari: Thank You Coronavirus for Shutting Down Cinemas, Coffee Shops, and Whorehouses; […]
Hamas-linked CAIR cries “Islamophobia” as Trump questions if social distancing will be enforced during Ramadan
The charge of “Islamophobia” in this instance is even more ridiculous than what usually comes from Hamas-linked CAIR, as Trump wasn’t referring to Muslims. He was referring to how law enforcement authorities treat Muslims. And there is no doubt that, precisely because of charges of “Islamophobia,” some people are reluctant to act against those who […]
US Commission on International Religious Freedom: Denial of food to Christians in Pakistan ‘reprehensible’
This is refreshing. During the previous administration, the USCIRF would likely have responded to this by opening an inquiry into “Islamophobia.” “Denial of food to Hindus, Christians in Pakistan ‘reprehensible’: US government,” by Dipanjan Roy Chaudhury, Economic Times, April 14, 2020: New Delhi : The US Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) has stated that […]

Why the Coronavirus Poses a Unique Threat to Islamic Terrorists
The pandemic could turn terror networks into ‘super-spreaders.’ The shadowy alliance between Iran and the Taliban has killed countless American soldiers over the years. But Iran exported more than just IEDs and training to Afghanistan. The social problems of the Islamic dictatorship traveled along the same highways as the IEDs. But they didn’t kill Americans. […]
Nigeria: Imam fired for complying with state government ban on congregational prayers
Sheik Sani Yakubu probably believes, as do some other Muslim leaders, that Allah will protect Muslim congregations from the coronavirus. In the event that some Muslims contract it anyway, it will likely lead them to become even more fanatical, leading to an increase in jihad activity. “Kaduna: JIBWIS sacks Imam for complying with ban on […]
Gaza medical system on verge of collapse, Hamas turns to Israeli doctors for coronavirus training
Abdelnasser Soboh, the head of the World Health Organization’s sub-office in Gaza, warned that the entire Gaza health system is in danger of collapse because it “is already shaky and barely functioning.

Egypt: Muslims who targeted Christians for jihad massacre planned to strike under cover of coronavirus curfew
What better time to strike than when people are taking steps to protect themselves? It maximizes the terror. “And prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may strike terror in the enemy of Allah and your enemy and others besides them whom you do not […]
Tunisia: Two jihadis arrested for trying to infect police with coronavirus
We have seen calls for the same action in India: “Infected Muslims want to go and spread Corona to Infidels so they can die in hundreds of thousands.” “Tunisia arrests 2 for trying to infect police with virus,” AFP, April 17, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): Tunisia said Thursday that two men, including […]
