Ramadan Follies
By Robert Spencer
Another
Ramadan is upon us, and no less an authority on Islam than Barack Hussein Obama
has assured us that the
Muslim month of fasting is a time in which
Muslims
“cherish family, friends, and neighbors, and to help those in need.”
Meanwhile, in Minnesota a bank robbery defendant has secured a
postponement in hearings on his case until after Ramadan, successfully
convincing a judge that there are “two tenets that must also be adhered to during Ramadan: The faith calls for not engaging in conflict and argument; and to work to reconcile differences and seek peace.”
Meanwhile, a group of Muslims in Thailand were so filled with pious fervor as Ramadan began Friday that they
murdered one infidel
and injured seven in two jihad bombings. And in Bulgaria, a hitherto
unknown jihad group calling itself “Qaedat al-Jihad” (Jihad Base)
claimed responsibility for the jihad mass murder of Jewish tourists in
Bulgaria last week, and
explained: “The month of Ramadan
is a month of holy war and death for Allah.
