Maine: Democratic Senate Hopeful Repeatedly Killed ‘Racist’ Bills to Outlaw Female Genital Mutilation

Aug 17, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer

My latest in PJ Media: The most revolting news item of the week comes from Maine, where, according to the Washington Free Beacon, “Democratic Senate candidate Sara Gideon repeatedly killed bills to outlaw female genital mutilation during her tenure as the speaker of the Maine House of Representatives.” In amassing this shameful record, Sara Gideon […]

Maine: Muslim fires shots into police garage, assaults cop and FBI agent, damages police vehicle

Jul 18, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

An attack on police — perhaps another manifestation of the Leftist/Islamic alliance? We may never know, since the establishment media remains so intent upon whitewashing incidents of both Leftist and jihadist violence. “Portland man charged with shooting into police garage,” by Matt Byrne, Portland Press-Herald, July 13, 2020 (thanks to Creeping Sharia): Portland police on […]

Robert Spencer in PJ Media: Muslim Migrant Violence Comes to Maine

Jun 20, 2018 6:29 am By Robert Spencer

The consequences of reckless immigration policies are here. My latest in PJ Media: The migrant violence that is becoming a feature of daily life in Sweden, Germany, France and elsewhere in Europe is now coming to the United States. Did we think we would be immune? Maine’s Sun Journal reported last week that a “melee” […]

Maine: Man dies after brutal beating by Muslim migrant mob in Lewiston park

Jun 16, 2018 1:57 pm By Robert Spencer

The Press Herald doesn’t see fit to mention the fact that this teen mob was made up of Somali Muslim migrants. Why cover this up? Because apparently Lewiston officials, as well as the local media there, are intent upon covering up migrant crime, so that the non-Muslim natives will remain ignorant and complacent regarding the […]

Maine: Muslim migrant mob beats 3 men with bats, sticks, rocks, bricks, one man in critical condition

Jun 14, 2018 2:02 pm By Robert Spencer

But remember: if you oppose the Muslim migrant influx, you’re a racist, bigoted “Islamophobe.” “Lewiston Living in Fear: One Man Critically Injured in Clash with Young Somali Mob,” Maine First Media, June 14, 2018: In the aftermath of uncharted tensions between Somalis and non-Somalis in Lewiston, one man is fighting for his life after being […]

Maine: Muslim police officer resigns after being charged with assault and battery and resisting arrest

Jun 13, 2018 10:24 am By Robert Spencer

Mohamed Noor, the Muslim cop in Minneapolis who shot an unarmed woman, Justine Damond, had been fast-tracked onto the force so that the Minneapolis police could showcase their “diversity.” It looks as if the Portland, Maine Police Department was trying to do the same thing with Zahra Munye Abu. After the shooting of Justine Damond, […]

Video from Maine: Muslim migrant youth attack park goers in Lewiston

May 25, 2018 10:56 am By Robert Spencer

Celebrate diversity! Diversity is our strength! Watch for much, much more of this in the coming months and years. This is the America the Left wants, and that the Left has given us. “Gang of Somali Kids Attack Park Goers in Lewiston,” Maine First Media, May 24, 2018: It was an otherwise pleasant evening in […]

“Fact checker” Snopes gets facts wrong again, falsely claims that Maine House didn’t allow female genital mutilation

Apr 27, 2018 5:36 pm By Robert Spencer

The news story that Snopes is disputing here did not originate with Jihad Watch, but with Maine State Media, which Snopes claims, without offering any evidence to support its claim, is a “shaky source.” So why do they bring in Jihad Watch at all, since we did not originate the story (we posted it here, […]

Maine: House Democrats vote to allow female genital mutilation

Apr 23, 2018 6:00 pm By Robert Spencer

“By a final vote of 77-70, the House killed the FGM ban in a mostly party-line vote…Last week House Democrats passed a toothless bill that wouldn’t actually ban FGM.” Why did they do this? Flagrant Islamopandering, trying to get the votes of Maine’s growing Somali Muslim community. FGM is mandated in Islamic law: “Circumcision is […]

Maine: 8 women, including 2 children, have suffered FGM; ACLU opposes attempts to criminalize it

Jul 6, 2017 11:36 am By Robert Spencer

“The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) in Maine said FGM legislation is not worth expanding the criminal code. They released a statement saying, ‘This bill is nothing more than an attempt to single out behavior that is commonly attributed to certain religious and ethnic communities as different from other forms of abuse.’” “Certain religious and […]

ACLU opposes Maine bill criminalizing female genital mutilation

May 30, 2017 3:49 pm By Robert Spencer

“Circumcision is obligatory (for every male and female) (by cutting off the piece of skin on the glans of the penis of the male, but circumcision of the female is by cutting out the bazr ‘clitoris’ [this is called khufaadh ‘female circumcision’]).” — ‘Umdat al-Salik e4.3, translated by Mark Durie, The Third Choice, p. 64 […]

Obama administration gave Islamic market guilty of food stamp fraud a pass

Apr 2, 2017 7:30 pm By Robert Spencer

“But an attorney for Sindbad Market asked for and received an exemption in September on grounds that suspension would cause a hardship for Muslim food stamp recipients, who rely on the market for its preparation of halal meat, in accordance with Islamic law.” Of course. To have taken any other course of action would have […]

That “Low-Level Hum”? It May Be Your Conscience.

Mar 30, 2016 3:54 pm By Ralph Sidway

Suspicion of Islam is not a bad thing. It is a sign of moral, mental and spiritual health. Especially when it comes from among Muslims. In the recent story, “Backlash from Brussels terrorism frustrates Muslims in Maine,” by Matt Byrne, Portland Press Herald, one of the Muslims interviewed, Ahmed Abdiraham, described a “low-level hum of […]

Maine: Muslims “frustrated” by “backlash” after Brussels jihad massacre

Mar 29, 2016 4:19 pm By Robert Spencer

What backlash? Muslims attacked? Mosques burned? Laws passed barring Muslims from entering airports? No. Actually, there has been no backlash at all: “violence against Maine’s estimated 6,000 Muslims has not been a serious problem.” So where’s the backlash? Why, one Muslim says that “the anger and hostility displayed nationally during the political campaign season eventually […]

Maine: Lacrosse coach loses job for criticizing Islam

Apr 6, 2015 11:55 pm By Robert Spencer

Freedom of speech, you say? Increasingly not, in the United States: those who dare notice jihad violence and Islamic supremacism are vilified, marginalized, and defamed. When Scott Lees was fired, was truth a criterion? Apparently not. “Facebook post on Muslims costs Fryeburg coach his job,” by Daymond Steer, Conway Daily Sun, March 24, 2015 (thanks […]
