“Refugees will have to familiarize themselves with Germany’s basic laws…, first passed in 1949 in the aftermath of World War II, featuring concepts such as freedom of religion, freedom of expression, and equal rights between men and women.” Yes, they will accept those principles readily. This will solve everything, won’t it? The refugees will read […] Read in browser »
UK: Convert to Islam threw acid in face of mother of six, leaving her disfigured and blind in one eye By Robert Spencer on Sep 30, 2015 03:04 pm

This is how the foreign policy establishment reinforces itself, and keeps applying the same failed policies over and over again: it’s lucrative to do so, the mainstream media never offers a challenge, so what’s the downside? “If you build a bridge, insurgents blow it up so the government won’t be successful. Cash subsidies to poor […] Read in browser »
Palestinian Authority’s Mahmoud Abbas says he is no longer bound by the Oslo Accords By Robert Spencer on Sep 30, 2015 01:41 pm
“Mr. Abbas delivered his speech against a backdrop of growing frustration among many Palestinians over the paralysis in peace negotiations with Israel.” Maybe they’d be less frustrated if they stopped shooting rockets into Israel and ended the genocidal anti-Semitic rhetoric on “Palestinian” TV. In any case, the Oslo Accords were always for the “Palestinians” just […] Read in browser »

UK: Muslim who ran amok with knife screaming: “I’m a Muslim and I’ll chop your f***ing head” escapes deportation By Robert Spencer on Sep 30, 2015 12:30 pm
He apparently can’t be deported because when he was arrested, “the Iranian Embassy was closed.” UK authorities are far too busy to come back when it is open: the UK Home Office has its hands too full making sure foes of jihad terror can’t enter the country to bother themselves with the trivial matter of […] Read in browser »
