Anti-J Street Inquisitor and Palin Israel Guide Close with Christian Zionists

By Sarah Posner

…for their treatment of Israel and explain the continued funding. . . from Arab nations and donors.” J Street, which favors a two-state solution, calls itself “pro-peace” and “pro-Israel,” which incenses pundits like Caroline Glick, quoted in the CBN article as saying, ridiculously, that J Street wants to “wage war against Israel.” There was negative reaction to Danon’s show trial from other American Jewish groups, even from the Anti-Defamation Le…

How the Messianic Jews Story is Playing in Israel

By Sarah Posner

…ng the Jewishness of Israel extends to “rescuing” Jewish girls from dating Arab boys. Yad L’Achim was portrayed rather unsympathetically in an investigative report by Israel Channel 1 in 2011, which pleased Messianic Jews there for its treatment of what they consider to be harassment and even persecution by the ultra-Orthodox. Another group, Jewish Israel, which claims missionaries and Messianic Judaism threaten the Jewish identity of Israel, is…

25 Things You Can Blame Muslims For

By Haroon Moghul

…r sell alcohol. Or, rather, al-cohol, I should say. One possible reason an Arabic word is used to describe a beverage the majority of Arabs are not supposed to imbibe is that Muslim scientists made huge advances in chemistry and passed their terminology on to Europe. 15. The Most Expensive Housing in America Anthony Janszoon (1607–1676) had a lot of money, so the Dutch wanted him to stay in New Amsterdam (see #7), but his half-Dutch, half-Spanish,…

The Latest Suspicious Ex-Muslim

By Hussein Rashid

…transformation of using a double “s” is funny because it doesn’t exist in Arabic. For someone who insists he knows Arabic—and he spends a lot of time telling us he does—he doesn’t really show it. I also find it odd that he was apparently raised in secular Iraq as an engineering student and decided that he was programmed with “Islam.” In the span of 23 years he has managed to become a theological scholar with a 780 chapter thesis. It almost reads…

RDBook: Is Zionism Anti-Semitic?: Zizek’s Violence

By Joel Schalit

…en the philosopher insists on stating that the Holocaust remains “an incomparably greater crime” than most of the events it is compared to. Yet, the Shoah is not such an abstraction that it prohibits itself from being abused in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. To make this point, Zizek notes how often the Holocaust is appealed to when progressives issue standard platitudes concerning Israel’s policies towards the Palestinians. Stating that the pl…

Run Hajar Run

By Amina Wadud

…ere. So she does indeed bear a child, and they name him Isaac (or Ishaq in Arabic). Then the story gets interesting. Well, what good are Hajar and her pesky kid if the couple has their own? According to biblical versions (we don’t have these details in the Qur’an), Sarah gets jealous and harasses the old man to get rid of the both of them. And the old man—who stood up to his people, but cannot stand up to God, nor stand up to Sarah—takes the slave…

Who Gets Paid to Make America Hate? The Roots of the Islamophobia Network

By Haroon Moghul

…he concocted rhetoric about a supposed Islamic allergy to freedom. As the United States faces shifting economic and geopolitical patterns, the Muslim-majority world will become increasingly important to the direction the world takes. That also includes the global relevance of democratic institutions, which is good for us, since right now the Western world is economically troubled, and challenged by rising authoritarian powers. Arab and Muslim…

Book Bannings Are Bad Enough, But Where Those Involved Are Considered Demonic, the Stakes Could Get Much Higher

By Frederick Clarkson

…onvert, or else be killed or expelled. It’s a tragic love story between an Arab man and a Moroccan woman who’s forced to convert from Islam to Christianity in Granada, Spain in 1492. Significantly less well known than Heine’s famous quote is the fact that the play centers around the burning of a Qur’an. That act prompts the famous sentence that’s now engraved on a plaque in Berlin’s Opera Square where, in 1933, some 40,000 people gathered to watch…

Pakistan and Iran, a War on Two Fronts

By Louis A. Ruprecht

…ic viability of the state suspect as well. And to be sure, the neighboring Arab countries have not done much to help either the situation or their Palestinian comrades. The parties on all sides of this conflict that do not want peace have found it very easy to play the current system to maintain a constant state of low-level violence that periodically breaks out into hotter moments, like the one we saw in south Lebanon, and the one we see now in G…

Don’t Call it a Turkish Spring

By Haroon Moghul

…Arabic for utilitarian Latin, then erasing as much evidence of Persian and Arabic as he could. Going through the dictionary with a black highlighter. Even snipping out subversive letters. There is, for example, no ‘q’. But there would be, if he’d faithfully transliterated from Arabic. So a Shari’ah-compliant lounge called ‘Huqqa’? With fantastic views of the Bosphorus, situated on the far edge of Europe and facing the far edge of Asia—not some geo…
