American honor killings

Immigrants, as I read American history, have always brought their less-admirable behavior, along with their more positive hopes and dreams, to our shores.Why wouldn’t they? It’s human nature.

What’s  new about the latest Muslim honor killings— the beheading of an estranged wife in New York and the running over of a daughter who wanted to choose her own husband in Arizona—is that most of the legacy media does a quick, very short report and then ignores the troubling details. No hysterical commentary like after the Tucson shootings.

Gotta keep those Musslemen happy, you know, since some are so prone to explosive upset. But without the shame of publicity, it will take much longer for this old world behavior to stop.

Radical Islam is older than dirt

It  is a misfortune to human nature when religion is given by a conqueror. The Mahometan religion, which speaks only by the sword, acts still upon men with that destructive spirit with which it was founded.” Montesquieu 1639-1755

Turkey’s oppressed Kurdish minority

By all means, let’s send a convoy to Turkey, to aid their repressed Kurdish minority which seeks a nation of its own. Since the Turks are sooo concerned about the Palestinians, let’s put the Ottoman slipper on the Turkish foot for a change. They haven’t changed that much since I lived there in the 1960s. They really hate having you mention their ethnic and religious intolerance. Merhaba, Mustafa!

The madness of Islam

An Afghan Shi’ite Muslim takes a break as others flagellate themselves with chains during an Ashura procession inside a mosque in Kabul–Reuters. Still, it’s peanuts compared to the rich-boy PantyBomber, so consumed by his submission to Allah that he wanted to take 289 others with him into martyrdom.

Stonings

On the CBS drama "Cold Case", it’s Christians who do it to fornicating women. So very bold of CBS television to attribute the barbaric murder to a Christian sect, don’t you know. In Iran, it’s actually being done by the the Islamic state, where Columbia U.’s invited speaker, Mahmoud the Mad, is president. Not sure what happened to the man on CBS’s "show." In the Iran case, the fellow "got off" with "only" a hundred lashes.

Immigration backlash

Instapundit says this sort of thing was inevitable, we’ve already been warned, and the Swiss reaction likely will spread. I think that’s right, in part because multiculturalism is a huge fraud and diversity can only go so far. That neither play well in Switzerland isn’t surprising. That there is a limit to how well they can play in the United States seems logical, though the limit probably is well beyond what an insular people like the Swiss can tolerate. It will start here (has, in fact, already begun), as in parts of Europe, as a reaction to Islam’s built-in intolerance, it seems to me. A country like ours, with cherished equal rights for women, for instance, isn’t going to readily absorb a flock of females concealed in burkas. They already make many Americans uncomfortable.

The children of Islam

"Children are murdered in the name of Islam daily: collateral damage in suicide bombings, used as human shields in acts of cowardice, pawns in a deadly game of ‘Mohammed Says: kill the Infidels.’ Mothers callously bid farewell to their suicide bomber kids as if they were simply sending them off to summer camp…"

Penetrating commentary, especially if you have children, on the God-obsessed murderers, from Incognito. You can see why it’s called The Long War.
