An old-fashioned Catholic martyrdom may be possible in a multicultural, late-modern society. But there is still a sense in which it is not supposed to happen here.

…

Some of the nervousness about calling Father Hamel a holy martyr reflects the limits of that imagination. After all, it would have seemed all but impossible, in the bright optimism of the 1960s, that a young priest of the church of Vatican II should, in his old age, die a martyr’s death in the very heart of Europe.

But it wasn’t, and he did.

In the liberal narrative, West Bank Palestinians are governed by the moderate Fatah, led by the moderate President Mahmoud Abbas, Israel’s Partner For Peace of the moment. Gaza, on the other hand, is ruled by Hamas extremists. In practice, however, it isn’t easy to tell the “moderates” without a scorecard.

Isn’t that special.

The only ultimate solution to the problem of Islamic terrorism is missionaries. In the meantime, the two remedies on the table are more gun control and less immigration. In recent months, experience in Europe has shown that strict gun control laws do not prevent terrorists from obtaining guns. Experience has also shown that terrorists don’t need guns to be effective; knives, bombs and trucks will do. That leaves immigration controls as the only proposal with even a slim chance of reducing Islamic terrorism–which is what millions of Europeans have now concluded.

Two Belgian police officers are wounded by a machete-wielding attacker who shouted Allahu Akbar before being shot.

Steve Sailer looks a current immigration policy, of such it can be called.

“All-We-Have-To-Doism” is the conventional wisdom that it would be impractical and extremist to attempt to ameliorate social problems exacerbated by immigration, such as inequality and terrorism, by tightening up on immigration policy.

Instead, the bipartisan consensus is that All We Have To Do is fix the schools or monitor every single electronic communication made anywhere in the world and from that maintain foolproof psychological profiles of every human being’s future behavior, or many other undertakings that are unlikely to work.

For example, All We Have To Do to safely let in a Million Muslim Mob is … well, it turns out to be kind of complicated.

John Hinderaker pulls together the list.

It itemizes 141 attacks in 22 countries, in which 1165 people were killed and 1803 injured. I might not call all of them acts of terrorism; for example, there are a few honor killings on the list. But they all represent Islamic violence of the most unacceptable sort, with nearly 3,000 victims.

Hamas diverted “tens of millions of dollars” from World Vision, a U.S.-based Christian charity, to rebuild its terrorist infrastructure, Israel’s Shin Bet domestic security Shin Bet said Thursday.

The terrorist group reportedly siphoned 60 percent of the charity’s resources in Gaza to reconstruct Hamas’ tunnel network and military installations, in addition to purchasing weapons intended to kill Israelis. This amount translated to roughly $7.2 million each year.

Israeli security personnel arrested World Vision Gaza operations manager Muhammad Halabi on June 15. On Thursday, Halabi, also an alleged Hamas operative, was indicted on several charges related to the case.

My, what a surprise! Aren’t you surprised? I’m sure surprised.

The Negresco came to mind recently after the outrage on Bastille Day when a Tunisian small-time crook killed 84 people and injured close to a hundred. The French authorities reacted as usual. They talked tough but are not about to do anything drastic, God forbid, because political correctness prohibits the mention of the culprit’s religion—he was, naturally, a Muslim. In fact the French media, closely shadowed by the odious New York Times, immediately raised the question of little immediate evidence that the attacker had direct ties to terrorist groups. The fact that ISIS claimed it and the perpetrator announced it before the attack meant nothing to the Western media, determined to whitewash Islam.

My question is as follows: Why should radical Islamists take heed when the West’s media refuses to put the blame on those responsible? So-called experts, professors at American universities who offer quotes to hacks writing about the atrocities, are as predictable as they are wrong. “Jihadism has become a kind of refuge for some unstable people who are at the end of their rope and decide they can redeem their lives by dying in the name of a cause” was one of the most egregious quotes I read following the massacre. (It came from a prof at Dartmouth.)

In Germany things are not much better. One week after Nice, a 17-year-old Afghan migrant took an ax and almost beheaded four people in Bavaria. Under German law, a 17-year-old has the same rights and education and financial support as a German juvenile who lives on his own. Isn’t that wonderful? An Afghan thug is given every right to live for free in beautiful Bavaria until he chooses to behead people with an ax, and the word “Islam” is never mentioned. This is the same country that gave us Orlando, and the ally where a father barters away his 11-year-old daughter to men who marry them and then sometimes burn them alive for refusing to work in the poppy fields and produce heroin.

Who does not recall the early 2015 slogan “Je suis Charlie” taking social media by storm, galvanizing the world in solidarity following the ISIS massacre of twelve cartoonists and staffers of the French satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo? And who has not, even in a mere flash of compassion, displayed the various sad iterations of “Je suis Charlie” in subsequent months, on the heels of additional—lewder, more brazen—orgies of carnage perpetrated by votaries of ISIS? Yet, even as “Je suis Paris,” “Je suis Bruxelles,” “Je suis Beirut,” “Je suis Orlando,” “Je suis Nice” and suchlike came to define our modern times’ indignation in the face of depravity, they also illustrated puzzling indolence, impotence, disorientation and aphasia before a millenarian, apocalyptic malady that many remain ill prepared to call by name—let alone combat and maim.

These two clips from German TV feature news reports from disparate sources that highlight an agonizing problem for the German multicultural Left: How to discuss the incidence of sexual attacks by “refugees” — which has grown too large to be completely ignored — without aiding the cause of PEGIDA, AfD, and other “extreme right” movements in Germany.

Watching these videos makes you wonder just how many culture-enriching rapes and molestations go completely unreported.

The common theme of the accounts given by the women interviewed in these reports is that it’s more important not to give any oxygen to the right wing than it is to prevent rapes and other forms of sexual violence.

In my Impact of Islam (2014) and Guide to the Phantom Dark Age (2014) I argued in some detail that Muhammad was a fictitious character conjured to life by the Umayyad Caliphs in the late seventh century in order to justify and legitimize the Arab usurpation of the Persian Sassanid Empire. In the above studies I also suggested that the earliest “Islam” was spread by the Sassanid Empire and that the great “Arab Conquests” of Anatolia, Syria and Egypt were in reality carried out by Persian armies. Certainly the earliest Islam detected by archaeologists is thoroughly Persian in character in terms of art, architecture, iconography, and even pottery. Thus for example, the crescent moon with the star, Islam’s symbol par excellence, is in fact an Iranian religious motif and appears on Persian coins many centuries before the advent of Islam.

In the above two volumes I also argued that the Sassanid king Chosroes II (reigned 590-628) converted to the Ebionite (or Judaic) form of Christianity (or, more accurately, Judaic Jesus movement) and that Ebionitism, popular throughout the Middle East since the fourth century, formed the doctrinal bedrock of what later came to be known as Islam. I suggested too that the Qur’an was originally an Ebionite devotional text written in Aramaic, and that it was only under the Umayyad Caliphs (beginning with Mu’awiya) that the book was transcribed into Arabic — a transcription which changed the meaning of many passages.

I love the smell of conspiracy theory in the mornings.

And all this has happened in less than two months:

• The jihad massacre in Orlando
• The killing of the French police officers
• The Istanbul terror attacks by the mujahideen from the ’stans
• The jihad massacre in Dhaka
• The truck jihad in Nice
• The axe attack on the train near Würzburg
• The massacre in Munich
• The machete attack in Reutlingen
• The suicide bomber in Ansbach
• The halal slaughter of the priest in a Normandy church
• The surgeon threatened with beheading in Troisdorf
• The terror mosque in Hildesheim
• The destruction of a church interior in Hamburg by an Afghan jihadi.

This is why I put up the “Number of days without an Islamic terrorist attack” graphic at the top left of the sidebar. If you look through all the news stories on any given day, somewhere in the world Muslims have carried out at least one terror attack. There hasn’t been a single exception since I created that graphic.

In this video of a weekly demonstration near Modiin Illit, shot yesterday, you see a Palestinian father urging his young son toward a group of IDF soldiers, yelling at them to shoot him, as explained here. What greater honor for a four-year-old boy than to be on the evening news as a “martyr”? The soldiers don’t take the bait; I interpret their reaction as one of disbelief. One of them shakes hands with the boy. The father yells at his son to throw rocks at the soldiers, but he can’t throw hard enough to do any damage.

For the Jihad anarchy and war-economy are holy; the warlords are saints; the crimes are acts of mercy. Jihadism is heated by a religious and apocalyptic narrative, where the destruction of the infidel West and final victory of Islam is the focus. In reality all this serves economic interests while it creates an illusion of religious self-realization — says Abdessamad Belhadj, a social scientist from Morocco who teaches and does his research in Belgium and Hungary, to mandiner.hu (online magazine). Belhadj believes that Muslim migrants have the desire for the elegant West and its lavish lifestyle, but as the crisis of the second- and third-generation migrants shows, they can’t take possession of it. That is why violence can gain ground.

Every piece of evidence emerging after the failed putsch on July 15 indicates that President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an was the victim of a failed Gülenist coup d’état. But to get the picture right we must ask ourselves, perhaps ironically, what the victim and the perpetrator have in common. The answer is many years of staunch alliance and the same ideology: political Islam.

As she fights to block a psychological examination by a government expert, convicted Palestinian terrorist Rasmieh Odeh added a new member to her defense team, one who shares her intense hatred for Israel.

Huwaida Arraf helped organize the 2010 flotilla aimed at breaking Israel’s blockade of Gaza by delivering humanitarian supplies. The blockade was implemented to prevent the Hamas government and other terrorists from smuggling materials that can be used to make bombs and rockets. The flotilla, and similar convoys which claimed to be delivering aid to Palestinians in Gaza, worked closely with Hamas officials in Gaza.

Sarah Hoyt gives us the European perspective.

In a truly multicultural society, with REAL religious tolerance, the local church wouldn’t have been commandeered as a mosque (apparently this was a standard humiliation technique for captive populations.)  It was returned to use as a church, and has been such for centuries now, the interior having been ALMOST completely scrubbed clean of arabesque decorations.  ALMOST.  Why almost, you ask?  The wall near the door, around the door, where you can’t avoid seeing them as you leave, was left “decorated.”  It was left so that people would never forget.

…

Look, people with ancient cultures all in the same place REMEMBER.  They remember in ways that no academic gaslighting, no professorial assurances to the contrary can erase.  For instance, do you know how you can tell which Roman emperors were considered decent by the local people?  they give their names to their kids.  Still.  Trajan, for instance.  And then there are the bad ones, that are also still remembered, but whose names are given to dogs (Nero.)  And then there are the unspeakable ones.  Neither child nor dog is named Caligula.

Well, in the local area, you find some kids named Ibrahim (though that is a bit confusing since local custom does weird things to spelling) but NONE named Mohammed.  (This might be different now, since the Conquista II — this time we pretend to be inofensive — is in progress.)  But back then there were no Moes around.

We reported yesterday on a recent culture-enriching incident from Germany, in which a surgeon named Attila Tan was threatened with beheading by the family of a dissatisfied patient. No ethnicities were mentioned, but the unhappy patient’s father was alleged to have cried “Allahu akhbar!” while brandishing his knife, which provides a clue.

As a follow-up, the TV news report below features an account about what happened from Dr. Tan, who says the man holding the knife claimed to be a Palestinian with ample on-the-job experience in butchering Jews. The fellow evidently assumed that since Dr. Tan was a successful surgeon, he must also be Jewish.

The most dismaying part of the story is that the four suspects have now been released, due to a lack of evidence. It seems that the testimony of the doctor, his two assistants, and a patient — four kuffar witnesses — carries less weight than that of the four Muslims waving knives. Sharia in action in Modern Multicultural Germany!

Unasked: How many of these are being stoned to death as homosexuals?

The images come in response to a call by Masih Alinejad, an Iranian activist and journalist living in New York, who urged men to support her campaign against enforced hijab.

Yeah, you can do that in New York. Just try it in Tehran.

Ms Alinejad runs the My Stealthy Freedom campaign and often shares pictures of women living in Iran who have enjoyed a moment of ‘stealthy freedom’ by taking their hijab off in public. She asked men to support her campaign with the #meninhijab hashtag and by sharing pictures with their heads covered while women pose without hijabs.

Not that the men aren’t doing this in public. The key concept here is ‘stealthy’.

Ms Alinejad has received 30 images of men wearing a hijab since issuing her call on 22 July. She told the Independent some men are also posting their images on their Instagram accounts.

Wow. A whole thirdy people. Out of a population of, what, 70 million? Yeah, that’s a game-changer. Maybe Hillary had something to do with it.

Several French media outlets announced today that they will no longer broadcast the names or photos of terrorists. The rationale behind the decision is that to do so “glorifies” the despicable acts of the mujahideen, helps spread their violent propaganda, and encourages further radicalization.

As it happens, it also prevents the French public from learning that (a) the terrorists have a “Middle-Eastern appearance”, and (b) Muslim names, not infrequently including variants of the name “Mohammed”.

But I’m sure these last two are just side-effects of the editors’ high-minded decision. No one would want to deprive the public of such important knowledge, would they?

In light of the recent terrorist attacks in Muslim nations, the argument is again being made that, say what they will, the terrorists are obviously not acting in the name of Islam—a religion which bans the indiscriminate slaughter of fellow Muslims.

Yet is it that simple? Since the Medieval era, Islamic clerics have justified the killing of other Muslims—intentionally, for they’re not “real” Muslims (e.g., Shias), or unintentionally, as collateral damage (who become “martyrs” and receive Islam’s highest paradisiacal rewards)—in the name of jihad.

Even so, it’s clear that, whenever they can, the jihadis do make an effort to preserve the lives of Muslims. This was the case in the recent terror attack in Muslim-majority Bangladesh. On July 1, 2016, six Islamic militants shouting Islam’s ancient war cry opened fire on a bakery in Dhaka, the nation’s capital. The assailants entered the Bakery with crude bombs, machetes, pistols, and took several dozen hostages.
