As we have seen with Muslim mobs in Pakistan, the mere allegation is enough. No actual proof is required.

Protest Erupts in Pakistan after Christian Framed for ‘Blasphemy’

Morning Star News, July 10, 2026:

LAHORE, Pakistan (Christian Daily International–Morning Star News) – A violent protest erupted in Karachi, Pakistan on Thursday (July 9) after unidentified persons mailed a desecrated page of the Quran to a Muslim shopkeeper along with photographs of a Christian and his mother, sources said.

Asif Bastian, a Karachi-based Christian rights advocate, said the envelope was delivered to Waleed General Store in Qazafi Colony, Baldia Town. It contained a burnt page of the Quran, photographs of 40-year-old Catholic Azeem Javaid and his mother, and an image of her national identity card.

“As news of the alleged desecration spread, several hundred Muslims, including activists from religious parties, gathered outside the street where Javaid’s home is located and began protesting,” Bastian told Christian Daily International-Morning Star News. “Around 10 to 15 Christian families live on that street, and they were effectively trapped inside their homes.”

The protesters hurled stones at police vehicles after officers arrived at the scene, forcing an initial withdrawal, Bastian said. The Sindh Province government deployed paramilitary Rangers alongside additional police to bring the situation under control.

“The government’s timely intervention prevented what could have become a major tragedy,” he said. “After officials assured protest leaders that police would conduct a thorough investigation and examine CCTV footage from the Saddar Post Office, where the envelope was reportedly mailed, the demonstration was called off.”

Bastian said authorities later used an armored police vehicle to evacuate Javaid’s family to a secure location.

A source close to the family, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the incident appeared to be an attempt to falsely implicate Javaid in a blasphemy case or incite a mob attack against him.

“Javaid has a stable job and has never been involved in any religious controversy,” the source said. “He has had financial disputes with some individuals, so it is possible someone sought to frame him. It defies logic that a Christian would desecrate the Quran and then mail the material, along with his own photograph, to a shop directly across from his house. No one would deliberately implicate themselves in such a serious offense.”

The source said the family remains under police protection at an undisclosed location. Javaid, who was at work when the incident occurred, has also gone into hiding while authorities investigate the case….

So far, this seems like an unusually good response from police and Rangers.

 

Egypt: Muslim mob assaults Christians as it attacks church, police arrest the Christians

Jul 14, 2026 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer7 Comments

The police freed them only after they abandoned their complaint against the Muslims who attacked them. As in Pakistan and elsewhere, Christians in Egypt can expect no sympathy or protection from authorities. If Muslims victimize them, those authorities will all too often side with the people who are doing the victimizing, as a Muslim will know that if he defends Christians against Muslims, he will face opprobrium (and possibly violence) from his fellow Muslims. Also, Muslim police officers know that the Qur’an tells Muslims to be “ruthless to unbelievers, merciful to one another.” (48:29)

Police arrest Christian victims after attack on Coptic church

by Anugrah Kumar, Christian Post, July 12, 2026:

Egyptian police arrested four Christian men who had been assaulted by a mob during an attack on a Coptic place of worship in Egypt, and freed them two days later once they abandoned the complaint they lodged against those who beat them.

The attack took place in the Upper Egyptian village of Tal Al-Quiblya in Minya Province on Wednesday, according to the United Kingdom-based religious freedom advocacy group Christian Solidarity Worldwide (CSW), citing the Egyptian Initiative for Personal Rights (EIPR).

A crowd of Muslim residents, most of them women, children and teenagers, reportedly pelted the building with stones while chanting sectarian abuse.

Several Christians suffered injuries. Witnesses on the ground say that the structure and the priest’s car had been damaged.

Officers arrived rapidly and restored order, though only after taking the four Christian men into custody. Their release came on Friday, conditioned on the withdrawal of their complaint against the attackers.

An unknown number of Muslim residents were also arrested….

The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom has urged that Egypt be added to the State Department’s Special Watch List, which marks states that have carried out or tolerated grave abuses of religious freedom.

Prosecutors have used the country’s blasphemy statutes against people for voicing or defending their beliefs, imposing anything from fines to jail….

Islam in America > Admitting the truth about Somali gangs just gets you in hot water; PEW poll on Muslims in America is unnerving to say the least

 

Hamas-linked CAIR, Muslim Minneapolis City Council VP enraged that sheriff warned about Somali gangs

Jul 11, 2026 11:00 am By Robert Spencer7 Comments

How dare the infidel Bob Fletcher criticize what the Somali Muslim gangs are doing in Minneapolis? Clearly he is an “Islamophobe” who is targeting an entire community instead of focusing on the tiny handful of bad apples who are actually responsible.

This strategy — claim aggrieved victimhood, collective blame, etc. — has worked wonderfully for Muslims in the U.S. for the last quarter-century. Why should they change strategies now?

CAIR-MN Calls Sheriff’s Somali Gang Warning ‘Dangerous’ as Law Enforcement Tracks 12 Somali Gangs in Twin Cities Metro

by Jasmyn Jordan, Breitbart, July 9, 2026:

A Ramsey County sheriff’s warning about Somali gangs in the Twin Cities drew criticism from CAIR-MN and Minneapolis City Council Vice President Jamal Osman, even as one law enforcement officer said he is tracking 12 Somali gangs in the metro area and another called for “law enforcement, community members, and faith leaders” to work together on a solution.

Ramsey County Sheriff Bob Fletcher is facing pushback after using his social media show, Live on Patrol, to address what KSTP-TV described as a serious Somali gang problem in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area.

KSTP-TV reported that Fletcher’s video received tens of thousands of views and prompted backlash from Somali community leaders. Reporter Ben Henry said the station had questions for Fletcher and was told the sheriff was available for an interview, but when the crew arrived at the sheriff’s office that morning, they were told he was not available.

In the video, Fletcher said, “Before you start fixing the problem, first you have to identify what it is. We got a huge list of criminal activity, but having said that, we’re not indicting the whole community.”

KSTP described Fletcher’s remarks as addressing Somali gang violence and reported that law enforcement officials were investigation(sic) weekend shootings in Minneapolis involving gang members. One shooting killed a man, while another wounded multiple people and reportedly involved automatic gunfire.

Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office Somali gang investigator Jama Shine said, “This needs to stop.”

Another officer said, “Right now, I’m tracking 12 different Somali gangs in the metro.”

A third officer showed KSTP video connected to the shootings and said, “You can hear the shots.”

Shine also stated, “We need to come together from law enforcement, community members, faith leaders, and find a solution for this youth,”

Suleiman Adan, deputy executive director of CAIR-MN, said “prevention and intervention and family engagement and sustained investment in youth must be central to any sort of long-term solution.”

“Anyone responsible for violent crimes should be held accountable,” Adan said.

But Adan took issue with Fletcher’s framing, saying, “To say that there’s a Somali gang problem” that requires the community to “raise the stakes and squash this” before it becomes a larger issue is “particularly dangerous.”

Shouldn't the community raise the stakes and squash the Somali gangs instead of squashing the truth about them? 

Minneapolis City Council Vice President Jamal Osman, who represents the 6th Ward, released a July 7 statement condemning Fletcher’s comments about Somali youth and gangs….

How can you begin to deal with a problem if you are not willing to admit the truth about it? 

Tiny minority of extremists: 44% of Muslims in the U.S. have a favorable view of Hamas

Jul 11, 2026 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer15 Comments

And then one has to count in the ones who were telling the pollster what they thought he wanted to hear, or what they thought was the safe answer to give. Those who are still, at this late date, counting on “moderate Muslims” to rise up and rein in their violent brethren drastically underestimate the prevalence of what they think of as “extremism” among Muslims in the U.S. and elsewhere.

Pew: 44% of Muslim Americans surveyed view Hamas favorably, overall support for Israel falls

JNS, July 9, 2026:

A Pew Research Center survey released on Thursday found that 44% of Muslim American respondents expressed a favorable opinion of Hamas, compared with 17% of Black Protestants and 2% of Jewish respondents.

The survey of 12,574 U.S. adults, conducted May 4-17, also found Americans now view Israelis and Palestinians nearly equally favorably overall, marking a significant shift from 2022, when Israelis were viewed much more positively.

Younger Americans were considerably more favorable toward Palestinians than Israelis. Among respondents under 30, 58% viewed Palestinians favorably, compared with 32% who said the same of Israelis. Among Democrats under 30, the gap widened to 72% versus 26%.

Favorable views of both the Israeli people and the Israeli government declined among Republicans and Democrats alike, though the drop was steeper among Democrats. Among Jewish respondents, 83% viewed the Israeli people favorably, down from 89% in 2024, while favorable views of the Israeli government fell from 54% to 47%. Jewish adults under 50 were less likely than older Jews to hold favorable views of either.

The survey also found that Muslim and religiously unaffiliated Americans were more likely than other religious groups to view Palestinians favorably and less likely to express favorable views of Israelis.

These are basically your godless demographic. Muslims, in my humble opinion, are godless because they believe in a false god.

Islam in India > Muslim milkman caught spitting into milk containers of Hindu customers

 

A break from the stories of rape, kidnapping, love jihad, etc., for a typical day in Hindu India with your friendly neighbourhood Muslim milkman.

India: Muslim milkman caught spitting into milk containers before delivering milk to Hindu customers

Jul 11, 2026 9:00 am By Robert Spencer3 Comments

Jihad contamination and poisoning attempts are not new. In India in 2019, Muslims plotted to poison food offered in a Hindu temple that is consumed by at least 40,000 devotees.

Al-Qaeda has long considered the contamination of food as a jihad mass murder tactic. And in 2017, the Islamic State called on Muslims to poison food in Western supermarkets.

And it has happened at least twice in Britain:

UK: Shop-owners sold chocolate cake sprinkled with human feces

UK: Muslim who sprayed food with feces and urine can’t be deported

Also:

Food jihad? Muslim woman puts needles in meat in Canada

We also know that jihadis have long wanted to poison the water supply. As far back as 2002, the feds arrested two jihadis who were carrying plans about how to poison water supplies. In 2003, al-Qaeda threatened to poison water supplies in Western countries. In 2011, a jihadi in Spain likewise planned to poison water supplies.

And in May 2013, seven Muslim “chemical engineers” were caught trespassing at the Quabbin Reservoir, a key supply of water for Boston, after midnight. Only months later and indirectly did we hear that it was a “criminal matter.” A month later, locks were cut at the aqueduct that supplies water to Greater Boston.

Also in May 2013, jihadists were caught in Canada who had considered poisoning air and water to murder up to 100,000 people. In October 2013, the FBI was investigating a possible water supply threat in Wichita. In January 2014, a Muslim broke into a water treatment plant in New Jersey.

Spitting Jihad in UP: Milkman Mohammad Arif detained after CCTV captures him spitting into milk before delivery

by Mahima Bahl, Organiser, July 9, 2026:

Lucknow: A shocking incident has emerged after a video allegedly showed a milkman, identified as Arif from Imalia Sultanpur, spitting into a milk container around four times before delivering it to a house. According to media reports, members of the Hindu Sher Sena had received prior information that the milk seller was allegedly engaging in such an act. Acting on the tip-off, they reportedly laid a trap and recorded a video that shows the accused spitting into the milk before delivering it to customers. Disturbed by what was seen in the footage, they immediately approached the UP police and lodged a complaint against him.

On the basis of the complaint, police detained the accused and began their investigation. During questioning, Kotwali in-charge Amar Singh said the accused denied spitting into the milk and claimed that he was only smelling it to check whether the milk had gone bad. Police have registered a preventive case against him under charges related to breach of peace….
