Pope says destroy all mosques in west

Have a read. If the pope called for the destruction of all the mosques in Europe, the uproar would be cataclysmic. Pundits would lambaste the church, the White House would rush out a statement of deep concern, and rioters in the Middle East would kill each other in their grief. Putting it mildly. But when the most…

Terry Jones Near a Riot

I don’t have time this morning to do much more than link to this, and suggest that there are some very serious issues here. I mean, the guy was jailed because of a crime they thought he might commit. Jones said he approached the barricade to recite the Pledge of Allegiance with opponents, but witnesses said…

Radical Islam in NZ

Well, this is a pleasant surprise. Muslims at New Zealand’s largest mosque claim its Pakistani imam taught jihad or holy war and preached on the need for men to make as many babies as they could with burqa-wearing women. Muslims involved claim imam or mufti Abdul Qadir Siddiquei preached jihad against members of Islamic sects…

Quote of the Day

See context here. PS Just had this message from Rushdie: “I’ve always liked Stewart and Colbert but what on earth was Cat Yusuf Stevens Islam doing on that stage? If he’s a “good Muslim” like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar then I’m the Great Pumpkin. Happy Halloween.” A few years ago I saw a documentary on TV. They…

Islam and Hate Crimes

Some useful statistics in this post. Does it sound counter intuitive to say there are no “anti-Islam events” going on around the country? In actuality it isn’t. We have but to check the FBI’s hate crime statistics to see this fact born out. The FBI shows that it is far more likely that you’ll be…

Quote of the day, identifying the Savages edition

Are we behaving like packs of animals and going around killing people? No. Because we’re not savages. And the radical Islamists are.As Dafydd notes:…

Ground Zero Imam – “If I move it the Islamic Radicals will attack”

That settles it. Rauf says the reason he can’t move the Islamic center now is because of national security concerns, saying parts of the Muslim world would be violently inflamed at the news of the center’s relocation. “The headlines in the Muslim world will be that Islam is under attack… (there’s) the danger of the…

Crazy – like a fox?

The Koran burning has been called off. GAINESVILLE, Florida (Reuters) – A U.S. fundamentalist Christian pastor on Thursday called off his plan to burn copies of the Koran on Saturday. Terry Jones, who heads the tiny, little-known Dove World Outreach Centre church based in the Florida university town of Gainesville, said an agreement had been…

Ground Zero Mosque – Two questions

Am I the only person who thinks this sounds a whole lot like a moderate call to arms? Does that even make sense? The opposition to the Ground Zero mosque isn’t going to go away. I’m not saying that because I’m behind it, but as a simple statement of fact – it won’t. Therefore, the…
