"A Gift For the Muslim Couple" – Sun Media and the US far right unite in indignation
This morning the US blog/news aggregator Memeorandum featured a Toronto Sun article (no link, you can find it yourself if you must), along with links to the Islamaphobic Atlas Shrugs and the equally despicable Weasel Zippers. It is rare to see a Canadian blog or news source in Memeorandum so out of

The Conservative pit bull brings the hate for Palestinians to the UN, overriding cooler heads left once again on the Harper cutting room floor. No questions asked. Of course the media calls this hate “pro-Israel” sentiment. I don’t think most of the rest of the world would agree. OTTAWA – A Canadian expression of

How low can Pamela Geller sink? The classification of “honour” killing has just become too much of a dog whistle for the bigotted extremes, these days. Pam Geller is running with it to promote her Islamophobic agenda. Anti-Muslim hate group leader Pamela Geller has seized on the murder of a
Continue readingTHE FIFTH COLUMN: Sometimes I Really Wonder
I think we all have friends, relatives or acquaintances that are caught up in Islamophobia and regularly send out e-mails warning that the Muslims are immigrating and breeding and going to take over the country. Their usual solution to the “problem” is to force the minorities to abandon their “evil

Can’t wait for the reaction from the Blogging Tories. “Free Speech!” “Sharia!” A site promoting violence against Muslims, Bare Naked Islam, was removed by WordPress at the request of CAIR (The Council on American-Islamic Relations). Apparently, the site contained threats of violence against mosques and comments like, “”I want [Muslim]

Nobody should have to silently watch someone with this history * be converted into some sort of universally beloved literary saint. * Or as Murray writes: A strange and extremely unpleasant manifestation of intellectual prostitution.

Pamela Geller has more than lost it. Her paranoia has reached epic proportions only an Ayn Rand could imagine. She breathlessly whines in a blog post that the media is hiding the truth about the 26-year-old shooter who met his demise at the end of police bullet earlier today. “The

Here we are again, boys ‘n’ girls, another somber December 6; another year has come and gone and it is time again to commemorate the Polytechnique Massacre when fourteen young women’s lives were lost at the hands of a deranged misogynist. For the two plus years since I’ve started Sister

The latest hysterical anti-Muslim insanity from the unhinged mind of right-wing darling Pam Geller: Butterball® turkeys are a threat to freedom!!! I guess by Geller’s “logic” then, Hebrew National hotdogs are a sign of Zionist Domination on the march, yet again!
Continue readingIt’s now unAmerican to eat Thanksgiving turkey
This turkey wants to kill your mama Why? Because Butterball turkeys are the victim of ‘Islamic slaughter’. Well not actually, it’s just that when one of Pam Geller’s readers wrote Butterball asking if its turkeys were halal, the firm replied in the affirmative. So what’s a wild-eyed Islamophobe to do?

Southwest Airlines is the product of a true southern sensibility. Meaning there is little sense – or heart – in anything it does. It represents all that is ugly about the US south. Especially lately. It is making a name for itself not for excelling in air service but for evicting passengers for . . . → Read More: Southwest Airlines follies: “It’s a go” not the same as “I’ve got to go”

Khaled Samy Abdallah Ismail is an Canadian-Egyptian mistakenly captured in Kandahar in 2006 and detained for 18 months in Bagram while authorities decided what to do with him.

If I was a Saudi Arabian – and if I was brave enough – my central focus on Islam may be to try and moderate its social practice. I would probably fight for a women having the right to drive, emphasize the peaceful and charitable aspects of the Quran an…

“Human rights have a dysfunctional relationship with justice. The language is certainly beautiful, but it’s all dressed up with nowhere to go,” charged Dennis Edney in a scathing lecture at the Faculty of Law at UBC on September 15. Edney worked from 2004 to 2011 on Omar Khadr’s defence against charges stemming from the July […]
