Lauri Apple · 07/31/11 04:04PMThe Anti-Islam Blogger and the Weapons-Stockpiling Norwegian
Max Read · 07/30/11 12:27PMBored rich moron Pamela Geller is a big deal in the internet anti-Islam scene, thanks to her unreadable blog Atlas Shrugs. Norwegian terrorist Anders Behring Breivik is reputedly such a big fan that he gave her a few shout-outs in his manifesto! Which is why we're interested in an email she got in 2007 from an anonymous Norwegian who was "stockpiling weapons."

Max Read · 05/10/11 10:54PMPresident Obama "is preparing a fresh outreach to the Muslim world in coming days," The Wall Street Journal tells us. How exciting! Despite the fact that Obama is the most Muslim president of all time, besides Dwight Eisenhower, his approval ratings have dropped precipitously in the Arab world, and Pakistan is certainly not too pleased with him, either. So, Obama will "deliver a wide-ranging speech":
Muslims Going to Anti-Prejudice Conference Kicked Off Plane
Max Read · 05/07/11 08:45AMMemphis Imams Masudur Rahman and Mohamed Zaghloul had boarded a flight Friday morning when they were told the pilot wouldn't fly with them aboard. They were going to Charlotte—to attend a conference intended to "address prejudice against Muslims."

Jim Newell · 05/04/11 12:41PMA Houston teacher of the ancient Islamic discipline "Algebra" has been suspended for making fun of a ninth grade Muslim student, in front of the whole class, following Osama bin Laden's death.

There are conflicting reports about the number of people killed, and a U.N. spokesperson has issued a statement confirming the attack, while calling the incident "still confusing."
Newt Gingrich's Grandchildren Will Be Ruled By Atheist Muslims
Jim Newell · 03/29/11 11:55AMNewt Gingrich, one of the serious Republican candidates for president, is back on the subject of Muslims this week. He's not just concerned that Muslims proper will co-opt his grandchildren when they come of age. He's worried about a new ultra-breed of Muslims, Atheist Muslims, performing the dirty work. Have you heard of these people? They probably live in cities.
Pizza Guy Will Not Appoint Muslims to His Administration
Max Read · 03/28/11 11:17PMHow do you pick which Republican presidential candidate to support? They all say they hate Sharia law—but they'd probably all immediately hire al Qaeda members upon being elected to office. All of them—except for Herman Cain.
Tim Pawlenty and the Curse of the Muslim Mortgages
Jim Newell · 03/25/11 12:58PMThe threat of sharia, or Islamic law, to America's cities, towns, and way of life in general is going to be a major debate topic among Republican presidential candidates this cycle. More than a dozen states have been working to pass anti-Sharia laws, and we should expect to see more state ballot measures in 2012. It's a big thing in Republican politics these days. So wait until GOP primary voters hear about Tim Pawlenty's old plan to boost sharia-compliant mortgages, so Muslims could own houses! Oh, yikes.
Muslim Congressman Sobs During Radicalization Hearings
Jim Newell · 03/10/11 12:14PMThis is probably not the "YouTube moment" that IRA Rep. Peter King wanted for his big Islamic radicalization hearings today. It's Rep. Keith Ellison, a Muslim, breaking down while telling the story about a Muslim first responder who gave his life on 9/11. King, meanwhile, started his day by revealing that he's been under police protection for months because of an "overseas threat against him."
