Last September 11, every Muslim congressmember and some radical allies teamed up on a congressional resolution demanding reparations to Muslims for 9/11. House Resolution 741, introduced a week after the anniversary of September 11, claimed that “in the aftermath of September 11, 2001” Muslims “experienced hate and were targeted by the government” and called for “various forms of relief to support those affected.” The money would have potentially gone to Islamic groups listed as terror co-conspirators. While the resolution did not specify which “community-based organizations” that “center the experiences and demands of Arab, Muslim, Middle Eastern” and others would have...

Reading The Economist often reminds me of listening to David J. Bier of the CATO Institute blather about the wonders of open borders. I keep meaning to write about Bier and will get to it soon, but the essential quality in both cases is a stubborn determination to build cases on theoretical principles, unleavened by any grasp of the real-world realities that shape how those principles play out once implemented. Bier caught my attention several times, but the most emblematic moment that stuck with me was that many of the objections we have to open borders leading to masses of...

FORT WORTH, Texas (RNS) — At 9 a.m. on a scorching summer Saturday, nearly 100 people were already lined up outside Goldee's BBQ, a small, wooden-shack restaurant. First in line was 30-year-old Thanh Huynh, who had been sitting in a lawn chair on the joint's rustic porch since 6:30 a.m. "I have, like, a whole list, and I'm going to spend lots of money here. It'll be worth it," he said, laughing while rattling off a long order of meats and sides from his phone's Notes app as a sweet, smoky scent from nearby pits hung in the air. Opened...

Dr. Maalouf ‏ @realMaalouf: Why does nobody ever refer to Muslims as colonizers, oppressors, genociders, slave traders, or imperialists? Sep 6, 2026. https://x.com/realMaalouf/status/2096689646864314568 Dr. Maalouf ‏ @realMaalouf: Arabic is by far the most common language in Africa. Over 200 million people speak it as their first language. And how did Arabic become the most spoken language in Africa? Colonialism and slavery! No one colonized Africa and enslaved more Africans than the Arab Muslims did. Yet, for some reason, we are only taught about European colonialism.

Let's Examine Mass Killings in Recent History and Islamism The Muslim Turks murdered, either directly or indirectly, between 1.5 and 2.5 million Christians between 1894 and 1924. It was also a jihad, or "holy" war.Sudan, 1953–2004: Some 4 million dead. Written in September 2005: Genocide in Darfur – How the Horror Began , Sudan Tribune, 3 September 2005. Copied here: Racism and Islamism in Khartoum... Perhaps the most destructive civil conflict since World War II and one of the longest wars in Africa's history, it saw the Christian and animist South pitted against the Muslim, Arab-speaking North. As many as...

When visiting a new place, one should follow local rules and customs. Hence the old axiom, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” Apparently, in modern Britain, that requires a nine-page government instruction manual. The U.K. Home Office recently published “Understanding Behaviours and Expectations in the UK: A Guide for Asylum Seekers.” It begins by acknowledging the obvious: We understand that coming to a new country can be difficult, and that laws and customs here may be different from your home country. Fair enough. Every country has its own laws and customs. But the British government’s instructions go well...

A product of Greek mythology, the Trojan War tale includes a great deception that ended it. After a ten-year siege of Troy, residents awoke to find a massive statue of a horse outside their city gates with the Greek army nowhere in sight. Assuming the horse was a gift offering to end the fighting, the Trojans brought it within their city walls, and later that night, Greek soldiers exited the statue via a trap door and opened the city gates to the rest of the waiting army. In warfare, deception is the mother of invention—and the greatest opportunity for deception...

New awards include ‘Allahu Akbar’ medals and Islamophobia awareness patches.Aug 28, 2026 Islamic lessons for four-year-olds. A mosque at Scouting’s historic headquarters.

At the same time, Saudi Arabia has placed an effective $87 million behind World Scouting’s flagship Messengers of Peace program—including a Saudi-supported operation inside America’s National...

L.A. County Sheriff’s deputies shot a pit bull that was reportedly attacking them while they were attempting to apprehend a suspect Thursday in Sunland, authorities confirmed to KTLA. The incident occurred around 4 p.m. at the Sunland Recreation Center near Sherman Grove Avenue and Foothill Boulevard. Authorities did not disclose what the suspect was wanted for, but said the person was taken into custody and that the dog belonged to him. During the attack, officials said less-lethal force was used multiple times on the animal, including the use of a Taser, though weapons had little effect on the dog, prompting...

How are you doing? This is Sahar TV with another update on the situation that happened in Dearborn yesterday, August 18, when a bunch of "Crusaders" took their motorcycles and rode all the way to Dearborn, Michigan to show them that America is not a Muslim nation.

In Islam, there is no separation between mosque and state. The goal is to use the state to make everyone submit to Islam. If you want to see what this looks like, just check out almost any country in the Middle East that has a Muslim majority. They don’t believe in freedom of speech or freedom of religion. Do you want to know how many churches there are in Saudi Arabia? The answer is zero, because churches are banned in Saudi Arabia. Now this same ideology is spreading in America, and that should deeply alarm all of us.Today, Islam is...

There’s not much to say here, since the woman posted the full account of the encounter on Facebook. Then the video was uploaded. Jessica Watson just wanted to get her eyebrows done at a salon in Alexandria, Virginia. As is common at these establishments, a conversation started, but when she mentioned her Jewish heritage, the owner of the salon, an Afghan, decided to go full terrorist on her. Jessica got kicked out. I’m nauseated even having to write this, but I won’t be quiet about it. I want my friends—Jewish and non-Jewish—to know what I experienced at a salon in...

Massachusetts District Court Judge Richard Stearns dismissed the Trump administration's lawsuit asserting that Harvard University was not doing enough to quell antisemitism on its campus. Stearns acknowledged that "while there have been incidents of Jews being threatened, intimidated, and discriminated against, who's to say that the University must take action? It seems to me that any actions that could be taken would run afoul of the First Amendment's prohibition of interference in the 'free exercise' of Muslim religious beliefs. The Quran contains many passages explicitly calling for the persecution, subjugation, and killing of Jews. The Trump Administration's demand that University...

Parents of Bay Area high school students taken on a field trip to a mosque are suing over the visit — alleging students were encouraged to wear hijabs and given Qurans.

Anyone still clinging to the mythical belief slavery is an evil of the white man in which only minorities suffered, must be dispossessed of that illusion. Jameela Jamil, born in Britain to an Indian father and Pakistani mother, moved to the U.S. in 1996—she’s an actress who spent most of her early career working in a range of activities, getting hired only after misrepresenting prior experience, putting her on the road to Hollywood. Recently, on TalkTV, she went on a racist rant, condemning British white people as “the most evil people in history,” due to their colonization around the world...

It’s a family of holiday killjoys. The sister of Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed has also dismissed classic American holidays as her candidate brother has been called out for hating on the Fourth of July, Thanksgiving and the national pastime of football. Eman Abdelhadi, an assistant professor of comparative human development at the University of Chicago, had several social media posts resurface in the wake of her sibling’s primary victory in the Wolverine State earlier this month. “Excuse me if I don’t celebrate the transfer of stolen land from one colonizer to another,” Abdelhadi posted on Twitter, now X,...
