“Islamophobia”

Europe’s publishers self-censor on Islam

 

When Rushdie was published, bookstores were attacked and others refused to sell the book, but the publisher stood firm. Not today.

When Salman Rushdie published The Satanic Verses in 1989, Viking Penguin, the British and American publisher of the novel, was subjected to daily threats from Islamists. As Daniel Pipes wrote, the London office resembled “a battlefield”, with police on guard, metal detectors and an escort for visitors. At the New York office, trained dogs sniffed mail packages and the offices were called a “sensitive place.”

Many bookstores were attacked and many others refused to sell the book. Viking spent three million dollars on security measures, but it never faltered. Today, Western publishers all self-censor. And London capitulates to intimidation.

Former Guantánamo prisoner on trial in France for extremism

An Algerian preacher who spent eight years in the US-run Guantánamo Bay prison has gone on trial in France for allegedly encouraging several young men to join the Islamic State group.

Saber Lahmar, a 52-year-old Algerian released by the US in 2008 and taken in afterwards by France, has been charged with encouraging jihadists to head to Iraq and Syria to fight for the extremist group in 2015.

Speaking mostly in Arabic at the start of his trial in Paris on Tuesday, Lahmar denied having links to Islamist groups in France and suggested he was being persecuted because of his religion.

Knife-wielding ISIS fanatics execute 20 Christians in Nigeria ‘to avenge the killing of the group’s leaders in the Middle East’

ISIS extremists have callously executed 20 Christians in Nigeria in a bloodthirsty rampage to ‘avenge the killing of the group’s leaders in the Middle East’.

The terrorist group published footage of the ruthless killings, showing the masked knife and gun-wielding fanatics standing behind their kneeling victims.

The militants carried out the merciless executions in Borno state where rival Islamist groups Boko Haram and Islamic State in West Africa (ISWAP) have been abducting, looting and killing on a huge scale.

En Marche! Eid Mubarak, France!

The mass gatherings at the end of Ramadan in Europe were the ummah displaying its takeover in public.

6,000 faithful celebrated the end of Ramadan at the Delaune stadium in Saint-Denis, outside Paris. When the crowd arrived at the stadium, members of the Amal association directed the men to the entrances of the two main courts, behind the grandstand. “The women at the back.”

Even the tennis courts welcomed the devotees. The fences were festooned with green balloons, the color of Islam. The “Allahu Akbar” rang out from the loudspeakers placed in the four corners of the stadium. The same scenes took place in dozens. of other stadiums in France and in small and medium-sized cities: in Garges, Bagneux, Poissy, Créteil, Ivry-sur-Seine, Argenteuil, Athis-Mons, Noisy-Le-Grand …

At the stadium of Mosson of Montpellier, 10,000 faithful in prayer. In Vandœuvre-lès-Nancy, a town of 30,000 inhabitants, 5,000 gathered in prayer at the stadium. Same scenes in Gennevilliers. We would be wrong to think that it is a test of strength for Islam The mayors of these cities showed up at stadiums to nurture their electorate.

Kinder Gentler Pro-Feminist Taliban Forcing Women To Wear Stinking Burka

Afghan women will have to wear the Islamic face veil for the first time in decades under a decree passed by the country’s ruling Taliban militants.

Any woman who refuses to comply and ignores official warnings to male members of her family could see a male guardian jailed for three days.

The Taliban enforced the all-encompassing burka during their first stint in power in the 1990s.

But they had not enforced it in Afghan cities since taking over last year.

I’ve lost count of the number of articles touting this kinder gentler Taliban since Biden handed back Afghanistan.

Swedish watchdog closes two Islamic schools for radicalising pupils

On Thursday, the Swedish Schools Inspectorate announced that it had revoked approvals for the Imanskolan Foundation and the Framstegsskolan Foundation, based on warnings from Sweden’s Säpo security police.

Säpo had complained about both the management at the schools, and the learning environment, judging the school leadership unsuitable to conduct school activities.

Sweden and the crisis of integration

Bombings, shootings and rioting are on the rise in Sweden. We need to talk about why.

Something is rotten in the state of Sweden. Grenade attacks have soared in recent years. Sweden is now the only country other than Mexico in which police record the number of grenade attacks. Explosions in general are on the rise. ‘Sweden’s 100 explosions this year: What’s going on?’, a bamboozled BBC asked in 2019. In 2020 there were more than 200 explosions and 360 shootings. The murder rate for 2020 was Sweden’s highest in 18 years: 124 people were killed and 39 per cent of the killings involved guns. Sweden is the only country in Europe in which fatal shootings have surged since the year 2000. Even the once Sweden-adoring Guardian has had to admit, with not a little perplexion, that Sweden has gone from having ‘one of the lowest rates of gun violence on the continent to one of the highest in less than a decade’.

CBC Floats LPC Israel Policy Trial Balloon

Claims that Israel is imposing ‘apartheid’ on Palestinians put new pressure on Trudeau Liberals

Two cornerstones of the Trudeau government’s foreign policy have been its public statements in defence of human rights around the world and its less-publicized support for Israel at the United Nations.

Now, a series of reports by the world’s leading human rights organizations accusing Israel of employing a policy of apartheid in its treatment of Palestinians have put the focus on the tension between those two positions.

Canada doesn’t usually dispute Amnesty International’s conclusions — but the federal government has had little to say about Amnesty’s report formally accusing the Israeli government of building an apartheid state in its occupied territories.

The CBC is testing the waters on behalf of the LPC with this article. The call to “officially” label Israel an apartheid state is proceeding on a number of fronts and is likely to succeed, the Liberals will use that label to alter policy and harvest the goodwill they have cultivated among the Islamists in Canada, a vote bloc they helped create. 

The Liberal and Conservative party’s are both guilty of deliberately altering Canadian society for the worse through ruinous immigration policy.  Multiculturalism & Diversity are nothing more than the bludgeons used to divide and conquer, ask questions and you will be declared  a racist for complaining about the mess created by their cynical identity politics.

Here Are the Three Koran Verses That Fueled the Slaughter of a Christian Priest in Broad Daylight

On April 7, 2022, in Egypt, a Muslim man lunged at and viciously stabbed a Christian priest thrice in the neck with a knife; Fr. Arsenius Wadid died soon thereafter. Although the murderer was instantly apprehended by passersby—the crime was committed on a crowded street—Egyptian authorities initially tried to do what their Western counterparts often do: portray the murderer as “insane,” an aberration of society.

Florida Man Must Write Essay About Massacre of Gays That Wasn’t About Gays

“My Florida Man stories are way more fun than yours,” PJ’s resident expert on all things Florida Man, Stephen Green, said to me, and he was right. But this one does have a bit of that quintessential Florida man appeal: a Florida man has offended the gods of multiculturalism and has been given an odd sentence designed to appease those outraged deities. But if he completes his assignment properly, he won’t end up appeasing them at all. If that isn’t a Florida Man situation, what is?
