Islam cannot be treated as a religion when it demands respect, a race when it faces ridicule, and a political ideology when it seeks power. You cannot keep changing the definition to make criticism a crime and disagreement a prejudice. Read "The Islamophobia Chameleon" by @IbnAlwarraq

Today is the International Day Against Fascism and Antisemitism, marked globally on November 9 to commemorate the victims of the Kristallnacht pogrom of November 9–10, 1938 in Nazi Germany and Austria. On November 9, 1938, the Nazi regime unleashed Kristallnacht pogrom. Over two days of state-sponsored terror, Nazi mobs and SS (Schutzstaffel) forces murdered dozens of Jewish people, burned hundreds of synagogues, vandalized and looted thousands of Jewish homes and businesses, and arrested around 30,000 Jewish men, sending them to concentration camps. This event marked a major escalation into the systematic horrors of the Holocaust. As antisemitism rears its ugly face across the world once again, we remember the victims, honor the survivors, and renew our absolute vow: Never again.

“Thou shalt not subject Islam, its Scripture, or its Prophet to historical-critical analysis. This is the first and the greatest commandment. And the second is like unto it: “It is Islamophobic so to do.” Read "Islamophobia and the Looming Apocalypse for Academic Freedom" by @DrJulesGomes
