Raymond Ibrahim Radio Interview: Iran’s Taqiyya-Fatwa, Pakistani Church Persecution, and More
I was recently interviewed on Reel Talk with Audrey Russo. Topics ranged from President Obama’s reference to the Ayatollah’s “taqiyya-fatwa” concerning nuclear weapons, Pakistani persecution of Christians, in the context of two recent church bombings, and Islamic modus operandi: when weak, preach peace, when strong, wage jihad.

Muslim Strength Decides if Christian Churches Stand or Fall
Coptic Solidarity A video recording made on December 14, 2013 of Dr. Yusuf al-Burhami, a leading cleric in Egypt’s Salafi movement, was recently publicized on Arabic media due to its controversial nature.

Barefaced Lies of the Muslim Brotherhood
Pro-Muslim Brotherhood sheikh and cleric, Dr. Muhammad Abdul Maqsud, in an almost surreal turnabout, just appeared on Al Jazeera saying that he and the Brotherhood are staunchly against violence and/or acts of terror in Egypt, telling Brotherhood supporters in that country, “Bearing arms never leads to any good” and “We do not incite the youth to protest […]
Taqiyya about Taqiyya
I was recently involved in an interesting exercise—examining taqiyya about taqiyya—and believe readers might profit from the same exercise, as it exposes all the subtle apologetics made in defense of the Islamic doctrine, which permits Muslims to lie to non-Muslims, or “infidels.” Context: Khurrum Awan, a lawyer, is suing Ezra Levant, a Canadian media personality […]
