Deputy assistant Metropolitan police commissioner Neil Basu said in March: “We must all accept that there is a possibility we will never understand why he did this. That understanding may have died with him.” Anything to avoid noting an Islamic motivation. “Last message left by Westminster attacker Khalid Masood […] Read in browser » Pope in Egypt: “Let us say… ‘No!’ to every form of violence…carried out in the name of religion” By Robert Spencer on Apr 28, 2017 06:00 pm It’s hard to be Egyptian: water turning to blood, frogs, lice, wild animals, diseased livestock, boils, hailstorms, locusts, darkness, death of firstborn, and now Pope Francis. Seriously, Francis notes the “incompatibility of violence and faith” and says: “Let us say once more a firm and clear ‘No!’ to every form of violence, vengeance and hatred […] Read in browser » PA cuts salaries to Gaza workers, not to jihadist prisoners By Christine Williams on Apr 28, 2017 02:00 pm The PA announced it is cutting salaries to state employees in Gaza, but is not cutting the salaries it pays to terrorist prisoners including murderers and released terrorists who will continue receiving their full salaries. The Palestinian Authority’s routine abuse of its own people (as well as that of Hamas) makes it no surprise that the […] Read in browser » Federal law doesn’t require healthcare providers to report FGM despite half a million at risk By Christine Williams on Apr 28, 2017 12:21 pm Current federal law criminalizes the practice of FGM, but does not specifically require reporting on it, though health care providers are obligated to report instances of child abuse, a category in which FGM falls Female genital mutilation is gratuitous violence against girls and women, and is a violation of human rights; failing to report it not […] Read in browser » Germaine Greer justifies child marriage, says female genital mutilation is “not Islam” By Robert Spencer on Apr 28, 2017 09:52 am We see it again and again with feminists: defending Islam trumps their concern for the rights of women, just as we see with gay rights activists such as Theresa Sparks and Chris Stedman that defending Islam trumps their concern for the persecution of gays in Muslim countries.

They assume […] Read in browser » Pakistan: Teen girl forced into sex slavery, then murdered by Muslim brother for “illicit relationships with some men” By Robert Spencer on Apr 28, 2017 09:02 am Muslims commit 91 percent of honor killings worldwide. A manual of Islamic law certified as a reliable guide to Sunni orthodoxy by Al-Azhar, the most respected authority in Sunni Islam, says that “retaliation is obligatory against anyone who kills a human being purely intentionally and without right.” However, “not subject to retaliation” is “a father […] Read in browser » Robert Spencer in FrontPage: The Pope Heads to Egypt to Defend Islam By Robert Spencer on Apr 28, 2017 08:38 am Catholics take note: his favorite religion isn’t yours.
