When the Taliban and its Al Qaeda allies blew up two giant Buddha statues in Afghanistan,it put the Jihadist alliance on the world’s radar even before the September 11 attacks.
The destruction of the statues was widely condemned by just about everyone. Even Democrats.
Now, Joe Biden has decided to free an Al Qaeda commander who helped bomb the statues.
The findings of an Ofsted inspection of the Institute of Islamic Education private boarding school have caused outrage in the UK – notably, the discovery of a book in the school’s library that promotes the killing of homosexuals.
On Tuesday, Ofsted, the UK’s standards authority for education, published a report about the religious boarding school in Dewsbury, West Yorkshire.
In a viral Facebook post, journalist and author Nima Dervish has urged fellow immigrant debaters to avoid “pissing off Swedes” because their country is “ruined” and they are “mad”.
“An open piece of advice to immigrant debaters. No matter how sensible you are, no matter what important work you do… Cut back the talk about white Swedes and their ‘privileges’. Even if you were right, cut it. Because now is not the time”, Nima Dervish wrote in his widely circulated post.
Canada is beginning to look a lot like Sweden. Next stop is France when “authorities” lose control of the streets.
Austria’s Chancellor Sebastian Kurz has pledged to continue deporting asylum-seekers back to Afghanistan, after a police officer was attacked at a detention center in Vienna.
“I wish the injured policewoman a speedy recovery,” Kurz said after the attack on Wednesday, as quoted by Austrian media.
It’s unacceptable when people come to us for protection, but neither abide by our laws nor accept our values. Incidents like this show why there must be no stop to deportations to Afghanistan.
As the United States prepares to complete its withdrawal from Afghanistan by August 31, 2021, a growing number of Arabs are worried that the American move will not only bring the Taliban back to power there, but also lead to the re-emergence of other Islamist terrorist groups such as Al-Qaeda and Islamic State (ISIS).
The Arabs are saying that the Americans are mistaken if they think that the war on terrorism will end with the withdrawal of the US troops from Afghanistan.
They are warning the US that it will pay a heavy price for allowing Afghanistan to fall into the hands of terrorist groups. They are also saying that they see no difference between the Taliban, Al-Qaeda and ISIS, and how these groups openly cooperate with each other.
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) added her voice to a group of Democratic lawmakers Tuesday calling on Secretary of State Antony Blinken to appoint a special U.S. international envoy tasked with ending “Islamophobia” wherever it is found.
Omar and two dozen other political allies pointed to what they called the “persecution of Muslims manifesting itself around the world” as reason for the appointment.
“Those who carry crosses should not be offered any prayer, because it is our belief that these people are utter heretics,” he reportedly said in a sermon in in Rosengård’s al-Sahaba mosque. “If someone unwittingly wears a cross on their clothes, we order him to take it off. Whenever the prophet saw a cross in a cloth or on someone’s clothes or whatever, he destroyed it,” he added.
Georgetown University’s Bridge Initiative, a project of its Saudi-founded Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding (ACMCU), claims it exists to combat the pernicious spread of “Islamophobia.” ACMCU’s June 30 webinar featuring former Bridge research fellow Jordan Denari Duffner offered further evidence that Bridge’s real mission is to depict all Muslims as victims and silence critical commentary on Islam. Like the term “Islamophobia” itself, Bridge exists to end, rather than advance, debate.
Waterloo Regional Police have charged a man after a mosque was ransacked and vandalized in Cambridge on July 14.
Police said the evidence does not support the inference that the crime was motivated by racial or religious hatred.
The Perp hasn’t been named that I have found. Was it just an incident triggered by mental illness?
Note that this is an Ahmadiyya Mosque, a despised minority sect considered heretics by many Muslims.
Conditions banning radical preacher Anjem Choudary from public speaking have been lifted.
Choudary, from Ilford in east London, was jailed for five-and-a-half years in 2016 after being convicted of inviting support for the Islamic State group.
He was released on licence from HMP Belmarsh in 2018, the conditions of which have now come to an end.
It has not been confirmed if police and MI5 will continue to track him or consider him a person of interest.
Today in history, on July 16, 1212, an epic battle—which the Islamic State still vows vengeance for—took place between Christians and Muslims, and presaged the demise of Islam in Spain, five hundred years after Muhammad’s followers first invaded and subjugated that nation beginning in 711.
A trio of vile sex offenders who targeted a young girl on her paper rounds before raping her in a playground and her own bedroom have been jailed.
Banaras Hussain, 44, Talish Ahmed, 41, and Mohammed Akram, 44, subjected the child to a horrendous campaign of abuse in Huddersfield between 1995 and 1998.
Leeds Crown Court heard the girl, who can’t be named for legal reasons, was just 12 years old and wearing school uniform when the predators identified her as a target.
The European Union’s top court backed employers banning Islamic headscarves and other religious attire — provided the curbs are vital to show neutrality in the workplace and don’t single out specific beliefs.
Such bans on garments that express certain political, philosophical or religious beliefs may be justified “by the employer’s need to present a neutral image toward customers or to prevent social disputes,” the EU Court of Justice said in a binding ruling on Thursday.
A former mosque leader from Brighton is suspected of giving a speech in front of young children saying armed conflict and violence was their ‘religious obligation’, a court heard.
Abu Bakr Deghayes is charged with encouraging terrorism by saying ‘Jihad is compulsory’ at evening prayers and making stabbing motions.
The 53-year-old allegedly told the congregation that ‘scholars fought the enemies of Allah’.
I bet this never happens at a Canadian mosque. Not that we would know, the authorities don’t monitor them.
