In an historic announcement, President Trump asked his National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster to let the American people know that he is pledging allegiance to Islam and that he “hopes for a peaceful vision of Islam to dominate the world” ahead of a visit to Saudi Arabia.
This is the harshest criticism leveled by the UN toward Myanmar in many years. It's about time but there needs to be much more ACTION:

Read the Nobel laureate Desmond Tutu's heartfelt letter to fellow peace prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi, condemning her for her silence over Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar and calling for her to intervene
The book has multiple flaws – flaws in structure, methodology, background preparation, choice of premise – which make it difficult to know where to begin with a critique. Perhaps the most obvious weakness is the staggeringly one-sided flow of statistics and examples, reflecting a clear decision to make the book a rhetorical, not an argumentative text: the reader is met head-on with an endless stream of Somali rapists, British Asian sex-traffickers, Pakistani terrorists, murderous Nigerians, homophobic Dutch imams, as example piles upon example in an Ann Coulter-like cascade of Islamic horror, clearly intended to culminate in the perfect synonymy of “Muslim” and “Evil”.
People still think Islamophobia doesn't exist:

This is the Jewish extremism & fundamentalism that Western and especially US media refuses to report:
This is what it looks like at in Hebron at the home of the Abu Rajab family which is being overtaken by settlers. Settlers have surrounded the house and are phy...sically attacking the family, who remain on the ground floor and first floor. "This is happening in full view of the army and the Israeli police. The family is appealing to the international community to provide protection to them,"
See MoreIn early January, Muslims in the PK5, PK12, PK13 districts of Bangui were hunted down, mutilated, burned alive and left on the streets. Muslims in the towns of Bossangoa, Bozoum, Bouca, Yaloke, Mbaiki, Bossembele and others also fled, as Anti-balaka embarked on a reign of terror across the northwest and southwestern regions.
Ali gathered his family, and fled to neighbouring Chad, too.
With the unrest in Bangui lifting in 2016 as the country neared elections, he decided to come home.

After shooting and killing Philando Castile, police then handcuffed and arrested Diamond Reynolds, his fiancé, right there in front of her daughter. This video was just released.
Louisiana Congressman Clay Higgins, fashions himself a holy warrior for Christ and Christendom, that's why he calls for the murder of Muslims he suspects are radicals: "Hunt them, identify them, and kill them. Kill them all. For the sake of all that is good and righteous. Kill them all."

Amazing bit of history people forget. When Polish refugees fleeing USSR arrived in Iran they were pelted with what they thought were stones but was actually candy and cookies.
In predominantly Christian Ghana, 67 year old Madam Yednboka Keena was stoned to death by a mob because they believed she was a witch. Is this another case of the Bible being taken literally? “Thou shalt not allow a sorceress to live” (Exodus, 22:18), and “sorcerers amongst you must be put to death” (Leviticus, 20:27). When will Christians speak out?
Despite the hysteria and exploitation by the usual fear merchants: Katie Hopkins who tweeted for a “Final Solution,” the never-reconstructed EDL bigot Tommy Robinson claim that the mayor of Manchester is in cahoots with “Islamic radicals,” the laughable stupidity of a UKIP politician whose brilliant response was to demand the return of the death penalty for suicide bombers, or Israeli PM Netanyahu’s shameless attempt to milk the tragedy by analogizing the Manchester attacker to Palestinian resistance, the overwhelming response of Britons and the City of Manchester has been to reject hate and the politics of division.

😂😂😂😂 but for real:
From another list:
"Going by empirical evidence and study, the government's Prevent should target the vulnerable and those at risk of offending:
Some of the ea...rly signs of radicalisation include:
1. Drinking alcohol
2. Smoking weed
3. Visiting night clubs
4. Lack of basic understanding of Islam
The government is welcome to focus all their attention on these people who claim to be 'Muslims' and at risk of becoming 'radicalised'."
