Many people make the mistake of trying to understand Islam by reading the Qur’an alone. Muslims succeeded in convincing large number of non-Muslims that Islam can be found only in the Qur’an.

 

Sarrazin "Crossing the Red Line "

Gates of Vienna 1 September 2010
By Baron Bodissey

Thilo Sarrazin is a member of the board of the Bundesbank in Germany. For several years his outspoken opinions about immigrants have caused controversy — he has declared that Turks and Arabs are making Germany "dumber” because they have lower IQs and are more fecund than native Germans.

The hot water he found himself in as a result of all this has neared the boiling point in the last couple of weeks with the publication of his new book, Deutschland schafft sich ab — Wie wir unser Land aufs Spiel setzen ("Abolishing Germany — How we’re putting our country in jeopardy”). An interview with a cultural magazine prior to the book’s release brought the scalding water down on his head from both ends of the political spectrum.

 

Do not tolerate the intolerant

Indiana Gazette  31 August 2010
By DIANA WEST

``We are Americans, each with an equal right to worship and pray where we choose,'' New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg said recently. ``There is nowhere in the five boroughs of New York City that is off limits to any religion.''

Our founding documents guarantee that - and not just in the five boroughs.

Islam's Useful Idiots

International Analyst Network 31 August 2010
By Amil Imani

Islam enjoys a large and influential ally among the non-Muslims: A new generation of "Useful Idiots,” the sort of people Lenin identified living in liberal democracies who furthered the work of communism. This new generation of Useful Idiots also live in liberal democracies, but serves the cause of Islamofascism—another virulent form of totalitarian ideology.

Voltaire's "Mahomet": Still Controversial After All These Years

Family Security Matters  31 August 2010
By Adrian Morgan

In February 1778 when Voltaire returned to Paris after an absence of several years, he wanted to see that the performance of his play, Irène, went smoothly.

This was to be performed by the Comédie-Française and the actors were falling out with each other. He knew he was dying, but his concern for the play’s success caused him to attend rehearsals, even though he was so ill that at one stage a confessor was called. His frail health prevented him from attending the premiere on March 16th. He missed a further four performances, but on March 30th, arriving in a blue carriage covered in stars, he attended its sixth performance.

 

• The Incompetence of the Federal Reserve

EuropeNews 30 August 2010
By Henrik R Clausen

This is commentary on an article in The Economist, online edition, Clearing the Air. It is not radically different than other articles concerning the Federal Reserve, monetary policy and speculations about what will happen next. It deserves some analysis, for otherwise this reporting is more confusing than helpful. And while this concerns the US Federal Reserve, the situation regarding the European Central Bank (ECB) is quite similar.

 

Seismic Shifts in Vienna

Gates of Vienna 29 August 2010
By Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff

Quaint, quiet, The Sound of Music… many tourists associate these terms with Austria. In terms of the international Counterjihad “quaint, quiet, and safe” may once have been the case, but no longer. The clash of civilizations is currently fought in the battlefields at the gates of Vienna with no King Jan Sobieski in sight.

Prophet of Doom Chapter 3: I Don't Noah 'Bout This

Also available as PDF and MP3 Audio.

Muhammad had a religion to sell, and by god, he was going to make it sound religious no matter how often he had to reshuffle the facts. Tabari I:323 "I asked the Messenger of Allah how many prophets there were. He replied, '124,000.' I asked him how many of those were messengers. He replied, '313, a large crowd.'"

That's a problem of incalculable magnitude for Muslims.

Wall Street Journal 18 August 2010
By AYAAN HIRSI ALI

The key advantage of Huntington's famous model is that it describes the world as it is—not as we wish it to be

What do the controversies around the proposed mosque near Ground Zero, the eviction of American missionaries from Morocco earlier this year, the minaret ban in Switzerland last year, and the recent burka ban in France have in common?

 

A Mosque in New York for a Christian Church in Mecca

Pajamas Media 16 August 2010
By Leon de Winter

The principal mosque in Rome has a surface area of 30,000 square meters and can hold thousands of believers. The Christian church of Mecca has a surface area of zero square meters and can hold zero believers. In fact, there is no Christian church in Mecca. In other words, Rome is an open city and Mecca is a closed city.

 

Islam Means the End of Religious Freedom

Canada Free Press 16 August 2010
By Daniel Greenfield

His endorsement of the Ground Zero mosque is another case of Obama standing "with the Muslims" and against Americans of all other faiths Islam Means the End of Religious Freedom

At an Iftar dinner in the White House, Barack Hussein Obama proclaimed that he supports the building of the Ground Zero mosque as part of his "unshakable commitment to religious freedom”. Which of course sounds very noble and good, until you ask a single question, Where is the religious freedom in the Muslim world?

 

• Happy Ramadan – party on!

Jyllands-Posten 14 August 2010
By Mehdi Mozaffari
Translation EuropeNews/hrc

The demand for discipline, otherwise seen only in the military, is the hallmark of Islam and not merely limited to Ramadan fasting. Every Muslim is a soldier himself, required to believe in one god, one book and one true prophet. Muslims constitute the army of Allah (jundAllah).

 

Obama’s Ramadan Delusions

Front Page Magazine 13 August 2010
By Robert Spencer

This year’s Ramadan message from Barack Obama is the latest in a long line of warmly complimentary communications that he has addressed to the Islamic world over the last eighteen months

Reciprocally warm and friendly greetings have yet to arrive from those to whom Obama has addressed these messages, but the President appears undaunted. Eighteen months into his presidency, he seems to be clinging more determinedly than ever to the idea that soft words about Islam will turn away the jihad – despite the total lack of confirming evidence.

 

Intellectuals can't see Islam's sins

News Chief  13 August 2010
By CLIFFORD MAY

The controversy over plans to build a mosque near Ground Zero in Manhattan has taken an odd twist

On one side are those opposing the project, along with those who merely have questions they would like answered so they can decide for themselves whether this project will honor the victims of 9/11 - or mock them. On the other side are those who support the project wholeheartedly and who respond to both arguments and questions by saying: Shut up!
