  • Weaponized Islam: Muslim Attacks Church and Silence; Man Puts Bacon on Mosque Doorknob, Dies in Prison (Video)

    “Kevin Crehan was jailed and led to his death for putting bacon on a mosque. Will this vile woman throwing rocks at a church in Bradford yesterday be jailed? I won’t hold my breath!” remarked British journalist Tommy Robinson, highlighting the stark double standard in legal responses. In a disturbing attack on Christians and Christianity yesterday in Bradford, a city in West Yorkshire, England, a Muslim woman was filmed throwing rocks at a church and a large statue of the Virgin Mary. This incident occurred in an area where the Islamic population comprises approximately 30% of the community. Despite the...
  • Suicidal Western Leaders Ignore Arab and Gulf Nations' Warnings, Continuing to Import Muslims Seeking to Conquer Them

    In 2015, as the Syrian civil war triggered a refugee crisis in the Middle East, wealthy Gulf states, including the Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Qatar, chose to seal themselves off from refugees, fearing the infiltration of Muslims and terrorists through refugee corridors and permanent admission, a decision heavily criticized at the time but now recognized as justified by critics in both the Arab and Western worlds. The recurrence of Islamic supremacists holding demonstrations in Germany is finally raising some concern from mainstream media and left-wing politicians. Following the recent Islamic demonstration in Hamburg, the Foreign Minister of the United...
  • Why the Left failed on October 7 The Corbyn era opened a Pandora’s box

    UnHerd ^ | Hadley Freeman
    A sentence I never imagined I’d write: I now think Jeremy Corbyn did Jews in Britain a favour. His time as Labour leader, between 2015 and 2020, was an extremely weird one for British Jews, but eye-opening all the same: I now think it prepared many of us for the Left’s reaction to October 7, whereas American Jews seemed far more surprised. The gaslighting (the attack didn’t happen), the defences (if it did, Jews deserved it), the hectoring moral superiority (how can you care about that when this is so much more important?): all that we saw after October 7,...

    This week police were called in to oust protesters who seized control of Hamilton Hall on the Columbia University campus in New York City, smashing glass doors and windows in the process. Sen. John Fetterman (D-Penn) hailed the decision to "remove these anti-Semitic thugs from the property. This is no 'peace protest.' It is a demonstration in support of the Hamas terrorists who slaughtered over a 1,200 Israeli civilians last October 7 and demands the elimination of the Jewish presence in the region." Mayor Eric Adams (D) objected to "the trashing of the premises, tearing down the American flag, and...

    “Abide in the Vine” (John 15:1-8) About a year and a half ago, some friends and I went up to western Michigan, and, among our stops, we visited a vineyard. We walked over to where the grapes were growing, and saw them up close. Clusters of big, juicy-looking grapes hanging from the branches! Just beautiful! And what did all these clusters of grapes have in common? They were all on branches that were attached to the vine. There weren’t any broken-off branches lying on the ground that had beautiful grapes on them. No, just the branches that were attached to...
  • The roots of 7 October are in the pogroms of 1834.

    Jewish Refugees ^ | 21 Apr 2024
    The Hamas 7 October massacre echoes previous pogroms in Palestine – notably the Safed pogrom of 1834. In this masterful analysis, published by the Fondation pour l’Innovation Politique, Georges Bensoussan identifies the rejection of moves to reform the dhimmi status and introduce equality between Muslims and non-Muslims as one of the primary causes of Arab hostility towards Jews. The conflict became islamised in the 1920s, and Arab anti-Zionism then drew on the antisemitic themes contained in the notorious Russian forgery, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. Pen and ink sketch by Samuel Manning in 1873, showing Jews praying at...

  • "Salvation in the Good Shepherd and in No One Else" (Sermon for the Fourth Sunday of Easter, on Acts 4:1-12; John 10:11-18)

    “Salvation in the Good Shepherd and in No One Else” (Acts 4:1-12; John 10:11-18) Today we are celebrating “Good Shepherd Sunday,” the day every year when the readings, the hymns, etc., all deal with Jesus as our Good Shepherd. Which makes our first reading today seem a little out of place. Because in this text from Acts 4 there is no mention of “shepherd” or “flock” or that type of language. But it is a strong resurrection text, which makes it fitting during this Easter season. And it certainly proclaims salvation in Christ most clearly. And this does tie in...

    “The Good Shepherd Gives Life to His Undershepherd” (Revelation 7:9-17; Ephesians 2:1-10; John 10:11-18) Dear Miriam, Matthew, Anne Marie, family, and friends of our brother Leonard: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. When we lose a loved one--whether that’s a husband, father, grandfather, friend, fellow church member--we can experience a range of emotions. Certainly there’s a sense of loss, grief, in knowing that we will not see that person again in this life. But for the Christian, when we lose a brother or sister in Christ, there’s also a peace and a...
  • Majority of young Muslims in UK want Islamic law

    World Israel News ^ | 4/15/24 | Daniel Greenfield
    1 in 3 Muslims living in the UK want Islam to be declared the national religion and for everyone to live under the brutal system of Sharia law which calls for beheadings and amputations. Less than 1 in 4 Muslims opposed the move while the majority were unwilling to commit. Among younger Muslims 18-24, 1 in 5 believed that making Islam “our national religion” was “very desirable”, and a total of 43% supported redefining the UK as an Islamic state. Only 16% opposed it. None effectively sympathize with Israel. Previously 1 in 4 Muslims had sympathized with the 7/7 suicide...

    Boy, the Biden-Obama regime really, really hates Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel! According to reports coming from Israel and Turkey the Biden Administration provided guidance to Iran in its missile and drone strike against Israel. Why would Israel EVER trust the Biden regime again? The Jerusalem Post reported: Iran informed Turkey in advance of its planned operation against Israel, a Turkish diplomatic source told Reuters on Sunday, adding that Washington had conveyed to Tehran via Ankara that any action it took had to be “within certain limits.” Turkey, which has denounced Israel for its campaign on Gaza, said earlier on Sunday...

    “Thus It Is Written, Fulfilled, and Proclaimed” (Luke 24:36-49) Do you want to know what the Bible is all about? Do you want to know what Jesus came to do? Do you want to know what the church’s preaching should emphasize? If so, then I’ve got good news for you. The answers to all three of these questions are found in today’s Gospel reading from Luke 24, specifically, in these verses: “Then Jesus said to them, ‘These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the Law of...

    At an anti-Israel demonstration in Dearborn, Michigan, Tarek Bazzi led the crowd in chants of "death to America." When Fox reporter Hillary Vaughn asked Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich) about this the Congresswoman called the chant "a legitimate viewpoint. If my constituents feel this way it is my duty to honestly represent their views in Congress." "The whole world knows that Israel is the instigator of most of the world's problems," she added. "The October 7 attack was a justified response to these instigations. Israel has been illegally occupying Palestinian lands since 1948. Any actions taken to try to persuade the...

    NewsNation anchor Chris Cuomo tore into President Joe Biden on Thursday, accusing the White House of sending a “mixed message” on Israel and warning him that no amount of political pressure — even from within his own party — was an “excuse to be weak.” Cuomo was responding to Biden’s Thursday call with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, during which he reportedly pressured the Israeli leader to move ahead with a ceasefire in Gaza despite the fact that the terrorist group Hamas — which started the current war with an unprovoked attack on October 7th and is still holding Israeli and...

    “Blessed Are Those Who Have Not Seen and Yet Have Believed” (John 20:19-31) Suppose you happened to be indoors all afternoon tomorrow. And the next day people say to you, “Hey, how about that eclipse yesterday?” And you say, “Sorry, I didn’t see it. Therefore, since I didn’t see it, it must not have happened.” Now that would be ridiculous. Just because you didn’t see it, there were plenty of people who did. Just because you didn’t see it, it still happened. Yeah, as crazy as it sounds for the sun to turn pitch black in the middle of the...
