In these days when the world is trying to do all it can to detach the Jewish ownership of Israel, and of Jerusalem itself, it is import to watch and share this video of Dr, Mordechai Kedar, Middle East expert and VP of NEWSRAEL on Al-Jezzera in Arabic. Watch not only his response to a Muslim cleric who claimed Jerusalem is Muslim, but in the forum he did it - inside their very own "court"! Watch as Kedar takes command and gives them a "dressing down" it will take them long to forget! Watch the video - it is classic!

Unlike other religions, declared the nineteenth-century French scholar Ernest Renan, Islam “was born in the full light of history.” Renan’s point, of course, was that whereas, for example, Jesus was unknown during his lifetime to the great world beyond Galilee and Judea, and the story of his life was set down, in various versions, only decades after his crucifixion, Muhammed was in his own lifetime a public figure of unparalleled eminence - the prophet of a new religion, the commander of an army that conquered much of the Arabian peninsula in the name of that religion, and the founder of...

The new revised and expanded edition of Did Muhammad Exist? contains: o 25% new material. o Answers to objections raised to the first edition. o Information that makes it clear that Islam could not have originated the way it is described as doing so in the standard, canonical Islamic accounts. o The reasons why it is more likely that the Muhammad of Islamic tradition is more myth and legend than historical figure. o Newly revealed facts showing that the current Qur’anic text is not the original, and has been changed multiple times. o Why the traditional Islamic stories of Muhammad’s...

A French teacher says he was threatened with a beheading by a student and then suspended by the headmaster for defending beheaded teacher Samuel Paty. Paty was beheaded because a 13-year-old girl had lied about his course on free speech to her Muslim father. ============================================================= Le Parisien reported that the Muslim teenager had lied because she did not want her father to find out that she had been suspended for skipping classes. She claimed instead that her history and geography teacher Samuel Paty, had suspended her from classes after she had a disagreement with him over caricatures of the prophet....

Imagine if a U.S. governmental agency told all Americans who live abroad that they are obligated to hate the nations that are hosting them. That’s precisely what the Muslim nation of Qatar (a “U.S. friend and ally”) is doing. According to the world famous website, Islamweb.net—which is directed and financed by the state of Qatar—any Muslim who lives in a non-Muslim nation is obligated to hate his adopted nation and its “infidel” citizens (even while receiving benefits from them). This comes in the form of a fatwa (an Islamic sanctioned decree) titled “Conditions that Legitimize Residing in Infidel Nations” (all...

Among the holiest days in the Christian calendar, Christmas celebrates the nativity of Jesus Christ as the unique Son of God. But that didn’t stop one of the most prominent revisionist parishes in the Episcopal Church from re-styling it with Islamic reading and a liturgy that aimed as much as possible to employ gender-inclusive language. All Saints Episcopal Church in Pasadena, California routinely modifies language from both the Book of Common Prayer and the biblical text in order to better accommodate revisionist ideology. The liturgical innovations point to a trajectory rocketing past redefinition of sexual ethics and on to the...

According to a July 22, 2020 article on PMW: Since the Palestinian Authority started its terror campaign — the second Intifada — in 2000, it has been promising terrorist Martyrs that as Muslims they will be rewarded in Paradise with 72 Dark-Eyed Virgins. The promises are given in religious lessons, statements by political figures, and poems and music videos, while funeral notices are worded as "wedding" announcements. As a recent example, the article cites a Palestinian music video that "reminds viewers that death as a 'Martyr' is really a 'wedding' to the 72 Virgins of Paradise." Another video shows a...

Alexis de Tocqueville was born JULY 29, 1805. A French social scientist, he traveled the United States in 1831, and wrote a two-part work, Democracy in America (1835; 1840), which has been described as: "the most comprehensive and penetrating analysis of the relationship between character and society in America that has ever been written." In it, Tocqueville wrote: "Upon my arrival in the United States the religious aspect of the country was the first thing that struck my attention; and the longer I stayed there, the more I perceived the great political consequences resulting from this new state of things,...

India: Muslim kidnaps Australian surfer, repeatedly rapes her, gives her Qur’an and prayer rug JUL 9, 2020 3:00 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER How could Carmen Greentree’s captors encouraged her to pray and read the Qur’an? They could do this because they believed what they were doing was entirely pleasing to Allah. A survivor of a Muslim rape gang in the UK has previously said that her rapists would quote Quran to her, and believed their actions justified by Islam. Thus it came as no surprise when Muslim migrants in France raped a girl and videoed the rape while praising Allah...

For years, a handful of my colleagues and I have worked to increase awareness of black (abeed) slavery in Muslim countries. The Democrat media complex couldn’t care less. Neither do the notoriously hard-left Black leaders such as Sharpton, Farrakhan, etc. ... Black slavery is rampant in these Muslim-dominated African countries, but no one is talking about it. ... Today, an estimated 529,000 to 869,000 black men, women and children are still slaves. They are bought, owned, sold, and traded by Arab and Muslim masters in five African countries. This statistic estimates those enslaved in Algeria, Libya, Mauritania, and Sudan. It...

KARACHI, Pakistan — Before Jamshed Eric plunges deep below Karachi’s streets to clean out clogged sewers with his bare hands, he says a little prayer to Jesus to keep him safe. The work is grueling, and he wears no mask or gloves to protect him from the stinking sludge and toxic plumes of gas that lurk deep underground. “It is a difficult job,” Mr. Eric said. “In the gutter, I am often surrounded by swarms of cockroaches.” After a long day, the stench of his work lingers even at home, a constant reminder of his place in life. “When I...

Facebook page NUS Atheist Society has found itself in a crappy situation after a post on toilet humour landed them in trouble. Police are investigating after the page made a post suggesting the Bible and the Quran as toilet paper alternatives, Law and Home Affairs Minister K Shanmugam said in a Facebook post today (March 20). A screengrab of NUS Atheist Society's post showed a picture of the Bible and the Quran, along with the caption: "For use during toilet paper shortages." NUS Atheist Society is not an official National University of Singapore (NUS) student organisation, according to the university's...

I explore Surah 74 of the Quran, and explain how Muhammad's soteriology damns Muslims to Hell. I also compare the Biblical view of judgment with the Islamic view.

I explore Surah 72, and explain how Islam is not a monotheistic religion so much as a patchwork of beliefs derived from pre-existing Arab pagan beliefs.

I dissect Surah 66, which explains the dysfunctional family dynamics within the Islamic world. I also explore how Muhammad justified adultery, and explain why Muslims don't believe they need a savior.

A survey by Elaph, the most respected electronic daily in the Arab world, saw 58% object to the building of the WTC mosque. *********************************************** From his recent travels to the Persian Gulf—sponsored and paid for by the State Department—Imam Faisal Abdul Rauf returned with a none-too-subtle threat. His project, the Ground Zero Mosque, would have to go on. Its cancellation would risk putting "our soldiers, our troops, our embassies and citizens under attack in the Muslim world." Leave aside the attempt to make this project a matter of national security. The self-appointed bridge between America and the Arab-Islamic world is...

I explore Surah 63, wherein one of history's most notorious hypocrites and liars condemns hypocrisy and lying. I also show how scripture indicts the false beliefs espoused by Muhammad within the Koran.

Movita Johnson-Harrell seemed to take pride in her position as the first Muslim woman elected to the Pennsylvania State Legislature. Now that record will forever have an asterisk next to it, as Johnson-Harrell has turned herself in to Pennsylvania attorney general Josh Shapiro's office, pleading guilty on charges of perjury, record-tampering, and embezzling over $500,000 in Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security disability funds, as well as donations to Motivations Education and Consultation Associates (MECA), a charity she established to allegedly serve the mentally ill and drug addicted poor in her predominately African-American neighborhood. In a press conference, Attorney General Shapiro described Johnson-Harrell's actions...

I explore Surah 59 of the Koran, and describe how Muhammad's approach to treaties set the template for future Islamic jihadists. I also contrast the example of Jesus-the Lord who came to earth to serve-with that of Mohammad, a wicked human exalted as Lord by his followers.
