Audacity of Truth
Move Along:
""The whole issue of this - of talking points, frankly, throughout this process has been a sideshow. The whole thing defies logic. And the fact that this keeps on getting churned out, frankly, has a lot to do with political motivations."

Churchill on Islam
**Posted by Phineas One of my favorite books is Winston Churchill’s “The River War,” about the Anglo-Egyptian campaign in Sudan in the 1890s. Among its many memorable passages is Churchill’s meditation the nature of Islam. Recent events make me think it’s worth dusting off: How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! [...]

Taliban behead 17 for the heinous crime of dancing
**Posted by Phineas And here I thought the judges on “Dancing with the Stars” were harsh: Insurgents beheaded 17 civilians in a Taliban-controlled area of southern Afghanistan, apparently because they attended a dance party that flouted the extreme brand of Islam embraced by the militants, officials said Monday.

Fruits of the Arab Spring: peaceful, tolerant Muslim preacher pardoned?
**Posted by Phineas Maybe, but the web site of Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood president and that of the preacher himself are doing their best to scrub the news from their sites. Via Raymond Ibrahim, behold another consequence of Obama “Smart Power” diplomacy in Egypt: Wagdi Ghoneim, the Islamic cleric whose many terrorist-connections and activities got him [...]
Sunday Book Review: “Did Muhammad Exist?”
**Posted by Phineas On the surface, this seems a bit of a silly question. According to the accepted story, Muhammad, the founder of Islam, was born in 570 AD and set in motion events of global significance in, as one writer puts it, “the full light of History.” We know when he lived and when [...]
“Please God. Please make it stop.”
**Posted by Phineas Last year it was CBS’ Lara Logan, who was sexually assaulted by a gang of hundreds of Egyptian men while covering the anti-Mubarak demonstrations in Tahrir Square. This year, it’s independent journalist Natasha Smith, attacked while she was walking with friends across a bridge during celebrations of the Muslim Brotherhood’s electoral victory: [...]

The group posted a photo on its [...]
The real “war on women,” presented by the Religion of Misogyny and Necrophilia
**Posted by Phineas The Arab Spring is turning into a horror movie: Egypt’s National Council for Women (NCW) has appealed to the Islamist-dominated parliament not to approve two controversial laws on the minimum age of marriage and allowing a husband to have sex with his dead wife within six hours of her death according to [...]
