Remarque! La version française suit un peu plus bas The rise of the pseudo-realities Over the past few weeks we have been concentrating on your right to have access to information. We have seen that both state and non-state actors seem to be very vested in depriving you of this right – particularly when it comes to subjects that challenge traditional truths long understood to be “self-evident”. It’s as if certain viewpoints are too delicate to make their own way in the publi

They should've called it the Christchurch-Colombo Call for Action

Editor's Note: Two years before white racist Brenton Tarrant killed 51 Muslims worshippers in two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand in March, 2019, a similar number of Christians – 45 – were killed during Palm Sunday church services in Alexandria and Tanta, Egypt, by Muslim suicide bombers. The slaughter in Egypt was mostly ignored by the Western media and politicians, while the response of both to the Christchurch killings was fast and furious. Western media and political

Can the Brits Define ‘Islamophobia’?

Editor's Note: In this excellent article, Michael Brendan Dougherty raises the very valid question of whether ‘Islamophobia’ can even be defined. He provides examples of things that have been said about certain Christian denominations or representatives thereof which scarcely raised any eyebrows but, had they been said about Islam or Muslims, would have raised the battle cry of “Islamophobia.” And we must understand that the term “Islamophobia” is indeed a battle cry to let

We must have the right to mock Muslimness

Editor's Note: Spiked editor Brendan O’Neill discusses the absurdity of trying to create a definition of “Islamophobia” that protects Muslims from discrimination but does not censor free speech. An All-Party Parliamentary Group working on the definition in Britain came up with: “Islamophobia is rooted in racism and is a type of racism that targets expressions of Muslimness or perceived Muslimness.” But since when is Islam a race? Not only does that definition threaten free s

Cries of Islamophobia Over ‘Law and Order’ Episode

Editor's Note: The Clarion Project reports on the efforts by CAIR – the Council on American Islamic Relations – to silence public discussion of sharia law with accusations of (wait for it!) “Islamophobia.” CAIR is objecting to an episode of “Law and Order: SVU” (Special Victims Unit), in which informed viewers can easily spot references to Minnesota congresswoman Ilhan Omar (whose antisemitism has embarrassed even her fellow Democrats), Kentucky high school student Nick Sandm

Islamophobia – The 21st Century Weapon To Silence Our Freedom Of Speech

Editor's Note: Adam Milstein discusses how the term “Islamophobia” is used to not only describe a “hateful expression of intolerance” toward Muslims but also to demonize anyone who criticizes Islam or even objectively reports on crimes committed in its name. “We cannot let accusations of Islamophobia silence us when we confront and defend ourselves against the radical ideologies that exist in some Muslim communities and are now growing in America: ideologies that undermine ou

Radio Canada’s interview of Omar Khadr, of Guantanamo fame, this past Easter Sunday was a curious undertaking. Not only did it take place on a day sacred to Christians but on the exact same day that Islamic jihadists proclaimed
