“75 years ago we stopped Hitler. Who will stop Angela Merkel? She has fulfilled Hitler’s dream! To control Europe,” wrote Michael Zammit Tabona. Tabona was blasted by the Malta News Agency for sharing views similar to those of the “far right,” anti-migration Matteo Salvini, Italy’s former Deputy Prime Minister, who once declared that he wanted […]
The Muslim Brotherhood Operative on Facebook’s Content Oversight Board (Part 2)
Tawakkol Karman is a supporter of Qatar, the Arab world’s staunchest supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood, and of Turkey, which under President Erdogan has become the other main promoter of the Brotherhood’s agenda. In recent years, Karman’s utterances have tended to hew closely to the party line of her two leading patrons, Qatar and Turkey, […]
The Muslim Brotherhood Operative on Facebook’s Content Oversight Board (Part 1)
When it comes to Islam, Facebook seems unable to get things right. It has made life more difficult for sober islamocritics such as Robert Spencer, censoring their content, while favoring those who attempt to deflect such criticism with charges of “racism” and “Islamophobia.” Recently Mark Zuckerberg decided it would be a good thing – Diversity! […]
Facebook names Muslim Brotherhood operative to oversight and censorship board
It is easy to see where all this is tending, although no one seems to have the wit or the will to do anything about it. The social media giants, anxious to make sure that President Trump is not reelected, are moving quickly now to defame and discredit, or silence altogether, all those who dissent […]
Nigeria: Atheist faces execution under Sharia for insulting Muhammad on Facebook
Rights lawyer Inibehe Effiong “said that Bala could not be subjected to Sharia law because he doesn’t subscribe to it….’It is only Moslems that are subject to Sharia law and that is the constitution because Sharia law is an Islamic law that governs lifestyle of Moslems who subscribe to Islam and followers of Prophet Muhammed.’” […]
Canada: High school teacher reprimanded for insulting Islam on Facebook
“Yetman’s behaviour raises the concern that students in his classroom may not be treated in a respectful fashion.” That’s silly. The story here says he insulted other religions as well, but if he had insulted only Christianity, would there be concern that he couldn’t treat Christian students in a respectful fashion? If he had insulted […]
Video claimed to be of man who “hates Islam” vandalizing UK mosque is actually of man vandalizing a shop in Poland
“Islamophobic hate crimes” are in reality so thin on the ground that those who profit from claiming that Muslims are the targets of widespread discrimination and harassment in the West have to invent them. “Old Video Revived As Man Who ‘Hates Islam’ Vandalising A Mosque In England,” AFP, February 22, 2020 (thanks to The Religion […]
Facebook blocks Google Translate and Disney.com in its efforts to block Jihad Watch
We are used to seeing the suppression of our content here by Facebook using their selective bias. There are many examples of their actions against the freedom of speech and suppression of opposition to jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women, including their blocking our articles from being posted and their preventing people from sharing […]
Dubai: Three men detained, fined $136,000 each for insulting Islam on Instagram and Facebook
A glimpse into the future of the West. Right now, insulting Islam will only get you deplatformed, vilified, and suspended from your job. Fines and detention are still in the future. “3 men in Dubai fined Dh500,000 each for insulting Islam online,” by Marie Nammour, Khaleej Times, January 20, 2020: Three security guards of a […]
Sharia Spain: Prosecutor recommends 3 1/2 years prison for man who criticized Islam on Facebook
“The accused, identifying himself by name, posted on his Facebook account messages ‘in which he promoted the animosity, rejection, exclusion, aggression and confrontation against Muslim people, as well as against people of foreign origin, black and gypsy ethnicity.’” This story fastidiously avoids giving any examples, so we can’t evaluate what was actually said. Since all […]
Moderate Malaysia: Housewife charged with six counts of insulting Islam
Another glimpse into the future of the West. What’s that? You don’t think Sharia blasphemy laws will come to the U.S.? How is criticism of Islam, even simple opposition to jihad terror, treated in the establishment media and by both parties now? “Housewife charged with six counts of insulting Islam,” Bernama, November 8, 2019: SEPANG: […]
Bangladesh: Thousands of Muslims riot, throw rocks at cops over Facebook post by Hindu allegedly defaming Muhammad
The alleged blasphemer has been duly arrested. The response of authorities the world over to riots of this kind is call for or place restrictions upon the freedom of speech, not to try to educate the rioters to accept the fact that there will always be people who disagree with them, and hence points of […]
Pakistan: Man gets five years prison for “hate speech” for criticizing “revered Muslim figures” on Facebook
“Prosecutor Munam Bashir Chaudhry told AFP Ali’s case is the first to be tried under a section of the cybercrime laws, which were passed in 2016, pertaining to hate speech.” Such laws are coming to the United States, courtesy of the Left. This article demonstrates that they are just a means by which Sharia blasphemy […]
Facebook vs. Elizabeth Warren: Can They Both Lose?
My latest in PJ Media: For perhaps the first time in her career, Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren has made a good public policy proposal, saying that Facebook should be broken up and noting correctly that “Zuckerberg himself said Facebook is ‘more like a government than a traditional company.’ They’ve bulldozed competition, used our private […]
Facebook spokesman compares Tommy Robinson to convicted war criminal Ratko Mladic
Many viewers were likely left speechless last week after watching Deadline – one of Denmark’s most popular news programs — during an interview with Peter Andreas Münster, Facebook’s Head of Communications for the Nordic Region. The issue was Facebook’s decision to censor virtually everything connected to the English journalist Tommy Robinson. Facebook censors Danish Media Outlet and […]
UK: Muslim rapist trolled one of his victims on Facebook and Twitter, accounts only shut down when he was jailed
Intimidation is a favored tactic of Islamic supremacists in the West, and Europeans and Americans are so very easily intimidated. “He also made a phone call from jail to the National Crime Agency (NCA) threatening two investigating officers.” “He used the false name Andros Simpson to set up a Facebook account after he was charged […]
Facebook ruthlessly suppresses counterjihad material while auto-generating Islamic State and al-Qaida pages
This massively malignant force exercises more control over the public discourse in the United States today than any totalitarian government ever dreamed of having. It must be shut down, or the freedom of speech will quite soon be a dead letter. “Facebook still auto-generating Islamic State, al-Qaida pages,” by Desmond Butler and Barbara Ortutay, Associated […]
Moderate Malaysia cuts sentence of man accused of insulting Islam on Facebook from ten years to six
See? They’re moderates. But we are still much more enlightened in the West. In the U.S., those who insult Islam and Muhammad are demonized, stigmatized, ostracized, shadowbanned, and deplatformed. But they serve no jail time! Yet. “Court cuts jail time for Sarawakian convicted of insulting Islam, retains RM50,000 fine,” by Sulok Tawie, Malay Mail, September […]
Moderate Indonesia: Muslim marries his two girlfriends at once “so nobody gets hurt”
Of course. Polygamy is allowed in the Qur’an (4:3). Thus for a believing and informed Muslim there can be no dissent from this. The fact that it reduces women to commodities and has been a source of untold misery over the centuries is immaterial. “Man marries his two girlfriends at once ‘so nobody gets hurt,’” […]
Malaysia: Islamic Development Department official says non-Muslims “are acting like cattle for slaughter”
“And We have certainly created for Hell many of the jinn and mankind. They have hearts with which they do not understand, they have eyes with which they do not see, and they have ears with which they do not hear. Those are like cattle; rather, they are more astray.” (Qur’an 7:179) “Jakim probes officer’s […]
