Islam, its replacement for reason: Links 2 for Aug. 22 – 2014

1. Michael Coren speaks on the (unsurprising) silence of muslims on the beheading of James Foley.

2. Islamic State militants stone man to death in Iraq – witnesses

The stoning, which happened on Thursday, was the first known instance of the punishment by Islamic State militants in Iraq, although it has been previously reported in Syria.

3. U.K Hizb ut-Tahrir Spokesman Taji Mustafa Calls for Muslim Armies to Rise against Their Governments  

4. State Dept. whoppers: Beheading wasn’t directed at the US; Islamic State isn’t ‘Islamic’

(It may be true that all you need to know you can learn in Kindergarten. But Obama appears to have stuck to everything he already knew when he first got there. Any problems, lie your way out of it then go to recess.)

5. Nigeria: Islamic jihadists “execute” two people for smoking cigarettes

(I will resist the temptation to make a ‘smoking is bad for the health’ type joke here. Clearly however, Islam is bad for the health of all and certainly second hand islam is the worst for anyone’s health)

 

Thank you M., DP111, Wrath of Khan and all.

I am content that Perfectchild’s considered comment on the ‘Bless you’ story in a classroom is more accurate than my first blush thoughts about this story. Chances are it was a kid trying to take authority from a pastor to disrupt the class. More shortly.

Lowell Green at www.cfra.com (click listen live) is doing an interesting show partially on the beheading of James Foley till noon EST.

  1. Aug 22 2014 – Swiss Mosque Shooting Leaves One Dead

    One person has been found dead after a shooting in a mosque full of worshippers at Friday prayers, police have said.

    Police arrested an individual with a handgun when they were called to a suburb of St Gallen in Switzerland after reports of gunfire.

    A man was found dead in the mosque’s prayer room, a police spokesman said.

    Around 300 people were reportedly in the mosque for Friday prayers at the time of the shooting.

    It was not immediately clear what the motive may have been.

  2. Iraq Militants Kill 64 in Attack on Sunni Mosque

    A suicide bomber and several gunmen attacked a Sunni mosque in a volatile province outside Baghdad during Friday prayers, killing at least 64 people and wounding more than 60, officials said.

    It was not immediately clear if the attack was carried out by Shiite militiamen or the Islamic State extremist group, which has been advancing into the ethnically and communally mixed Diyala province and has been known to kill fellow Sunni Muslims who refuse to submit to its leadership.

    An army officer and a police officer said the attack on the Musab bin Omair Mosque in Imam Wais village, some 120 kilometers (75 miles) northeast of Baghdad, began with a suicide bombing near the entrance, after which gunmen poured in and opened fire on the worshippers.

    Officials in Imam Wais said Iraqi security forces and Shiite militiamen raced to the scene of the attack to reinforce security but stumbled upon bombs planted by the militants, which allowed the attackers to flee. Four Shiite militiamen were killed and thirteen wounded by the blasts. Outgoing Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki has called for an investigation into the incident.
