Will it be different, finally?

The facts at hand presumably speak for themselves, but a trifle more vulgarly, I suspect, than facts even usually do. The German-language news outlet TAG24 reported Wednesday that a man identified only as “Edris Z.” had carried out “a coldly planned revenge murder” against his former girlfriend, a “refugee aid worker had previously denounced the…

According to the U.K.’s Daily Echo last week, “a 14-year-old boy developed extreme views influenced by the so-called Islamic State and attempted to make homemade bombs during the coronavirus lockdown.” Apparently the precocious lad had “filmed homemade videos telling viewers how he would ‘carry out Jihad’ and ‘become a martyr’, as well as creating notes…

The good Cardinal is right …..

Mahmoudi Ridha, a Muslim migrant from Tunisia, last Tuesday murdered a Catholic priest in Italy, Fr. Roberto Malgesini. After killing Malgesini, Ridha crowed: “The priest died like a dog, that was right.” According to Church Militant, in the wake of the murder, “police have categorically rejected the Italian bishops’ claim” that Ridha “had mental problems.”…

Here is yet more evidence of the two-tier justice system in the United States today. I’ve been warning about Reza Aslan for years. Now he is openly calling for sedition and violence.

The far-Left hate site Raw Story took the opportunity of the 19th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 jihad terror attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people to advance the claim that nowadays, the foremost threat the nation faces is not from jihadis, but from – you guessed it – “far-right white supremacists who love Trump.”…

Ihssane Leckey was a far-Left candidate for Congress in Massachusetts’ fourth congressional district. In the primary last Tuesday, she finished fifth (the winner was Jake Auchincloss). After her defeat, she took to Twitter to thank her followers and boast of her accomplishments, which included: “You joined in prayer as I read the Koran in Arabic…

Agence France-Presse reported Saturday that “protesters threw stones at police and burned tyres in southern Sweden late on Friday, authorities said, hours after an anti-Muslim Danish politician was blocked from attending a Quran-burning rally nearby.” Were the “anti-Muslim Danish politician” or the participants at the “Quran-burning rally” throwing stones at police or burning tires? No,…

The academic Left has been working for decades to replace genuine American history with a farrago of tendentious nonsense designed to make Americans embarrassed to be American. Howard Zinn’s history of the United States and the 1619 Project are just two of these efforts. Those whom they have thoroughly propagandized will have no objection to their…

Nicholas Rovinski is free, and we’re all supposed to feel good about ourselves as a result. Fox News reported that on Thursday, U.S. District Judge for Massachusetts William Young, “citing the coronavirus pandemic, ordered the release, of a Rhode Island man who was sentenced to 15 years in prison for participating in a plot to…

To be precise, it was Ireland’s Croke Park Stadium, not a proper mosque, but what happened there was no joke. ChurchMilitant.com reported that on Friday, July 31, Ireland’s top Catholic prelate, Archbishop Diarmuid Martin, “joined Muslims in celebrating a key Islamic festival which falsifies the Bible by declaring that the patriarch Abraham took Ishmael, not Isaac, to be sacrificed…

As the US becomes increasingly totalitarian, only one point of view is allowed in the public square, and that point of view is warmly positive toward Islam, with no criticism allowed. OpIndia reported Tuesday that Facebook “unpublished a page on the social media platform called ExMuslim TV, that merely shared short videos of ex-Muslims and…

You might have thought that Absurd Britannia couldn’t possibly get any more absurd.

A Leftist protester in Portland recently announced that the goal of the riots that have recently swept the nation is the “abolition of the United States as we know it,” to the applause of her audience (which included not just miseducated children, but a middle-aged priest who should have known better). Rioters around the country,…

“War is deceit,” according to a statement attributed to Muhammad, the prophet of Islam, and the leaders of the Islamic Republic of Iran were taking notes.

The propaganda is so drearily predictable. Would Yahoo News ever run a piece explaining how Sharia taught warfare against and the subjugation of unbelievers? Of course not. But there is a steady stream of nonsense like this ridiculous presentation from Mark Fathi Messoud, Director of Legal Studies and Associate Professor of Politics, University of California,…

The savage Left is busy tearing down statues and repudiating American history, and with it America itself. In response, lovers of freedom are deploring the destruction and denouncing the barbarians, but few are mounting a robust and informed response to their hatred of American history itself. Yet if there is anything that this orgy of…

If their objective is really to destroy monuments to slave owners (which it isn’t, of course: the goal is to obliterate American history in general and America itself), the Antifa rioters who are busy tearing down statues all over the United States have demonstrated more than once that they have only the most glancing grasp…

The latest version of a video game known as PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) has become the focus of controversy after Muslims have grown enraged and complained about how it supposedly encourages “idol worship.”

The recent arrest of a Brooklyn lawyer, and the background of her “best friend” who bailed her out, illuminates one of the most puzzling aspects of the contemporary scene: the Leftist/Islamic alliance. Over the years I’ve been asked numerous times about this alliance, which many people don’t understand due to the fact that the Left…

Violence and genocide – it’s Islamic texts and teachings.

Not many Americans are aware that there was a jihad attack on American soil last week, but it happened at the Naval Air Station Corpus Christi in Texas. On Thursday, a 20-year-old Muslim migrant from Syria named Adam Salim Alsahli, according to CNN, “attempted to rush the security gate with a vehicle.” Then, after “security…

Fresh from the destruction of its credibility due to its involvement in the attempted deep-state coup against President Trump, the FBI was revealed Tuesday to have made yet another “mistake”: it “inadvertently” revealed the name of the official of the Saudi Embassy who is suspected of aiding two of the 9/11 jihad hijackers. What the…

Celebrate diversity! The NazLegacy Foundation several days ago held an online celebration of Ramadan called #RamadanAtHome that featured, among others, Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury; Vincent Nichols, Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster; and Ephraim Mirvis, Chief Rabbi of Britain. No doubt everyone involved was happy to get a chance to demonstrate his or her virtue and…

Khan apparently made this spectacularly risible statement in a video conversation with Tehran Mayor Pirouz Hanachi.

A cultural line has been crossed

The coronavirus is bad enough, but the real pandemic these days is of cowardice.

The Democrats are working furiously to fund these savage terrorists.

“people in countries where FGM is still common attempt to link it to religion” (Islam)

Spiked columnist Luke Gittos noted Wednesday that “musician and actor Riz Ahmed’s new short film, The Long Goodbye, has been released to accompany his new album of the same name. The film depicts an Asian family – in the midst of preparing for a wedding – being dragged from their homes and executed.” Sounds like…

For quite some time it has been obvious that our nation’s colleges and universities are no longer institutions of higher learning, but radioactive wastelands of Leftist indoctrination and Antifa recruitment. Resounding confirmation of this came Tuesday from the University of Michigan, when a Jewish student was condemned for telling the truth, and groveled before his…

Yes, he really did.

Has Bernie Sanders ever been right about anything?

So why does ahistorical twaddle and fantasy such as Islamic Empires get published and praised to the skies in the @WSJ?

Victim: “I presented it to a judge. But Tariq Ramadan scared him too much…. I am well-placed to know the violence of the networks of the Muslim Brotherhood when one stands up to ‘brother Tariq.’”

The refusal of analysts of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to face the role of Islamic theology in the conflict is astonishingly naïve and ethnocentric.

According to Islamic law (shariah), they do have a point.

Israelly Cool reported Wednesday that a supporter of the “Palestinian” jihad against Israel, Sarah Hassan, recently posted a photo on Twitter of a boy crouched beneath a cart, surrounded by snow, trying to keep warm. “Gaza…poverty…cold!” wrote Hassan, but IsraellyCool noted that “never got lower than 6 degrees Celcius [sic] in Gaza over that time…

The Italian intellectual Marcello Pera has criticized Pope Francis for “openly going against tradition, doctrine, and introducing inexplicable innovations, behaviors and gestures.” Pera opined that the Pope’s agenda in doing this truly insidious: The Pope does it because he hates the West, he aspires to destroy it. … As he aspires to destroy the Christian…

Leftists are outraged and is claiming that Trump’s targeting of Iranian Quds Force commander Qassem Soleimani will start a war. However, all those who are blaming Trump for ramping up tensions with Iran are ignoring the fact that Iran has been working toward a war with the U.S. for decades. On November 2, 2015, a…

Your moral superiors know you need it, and so you shall have it

Could the increasingly anti-Semitic Left’s hatred for Trump be motivated in part by his indefatigable support for Jews and Israel?

And so once again we get a lesson in the dangers of identity politics.

London Bridge jihad murderer Usman Khan was at Cambridge University Friday, attending a prisoner rehabilitation conference, when he suddenly decided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the “deradicalization” process: Khan stabbed Jack Merritt, 25, to death at what the Daily Mail called a “prisoner rehabilitation conference that paired jailed killers with students and held creative writing…

It’s actually quite obvious that Saipov did his killing in service to Allah. THe was yelling ‘Allahu Akbar!

The Qur’an depicts the Jews as inveterately evil and bent on destroying the well-being of the Muslims. These aren’t just random verses tucked away in a dusty book that everyone has forgotten. The Qur’an is at the very center of Islamic culture and life, and has exerted its influence upon Islamic culture to such an extent that even many Muslims who don’t read it regularly and aren’t familiar with its contents share its hatred of Jews – in many Muslim-majority areas, that hatred is in the air.

With the hijrah, comes its customs and practices. We have seen this kind of activity for years in Britain, while authorities did nothing, cowering in fear of the possibility that if they acted, they would be accused of being “Islamophobic.”

He was detained on suspicion of ‘apologising for terrorism.’”
I can’t even.
