The Presidency
Obama's rebels establish sharia law - In most rebel occupied areas of Syria there is none of the "freedom" that Obama claimed would be established by the rebels he supports. Instead, rights have been stripped from women, and there is no freedom of speech or press because the areas are run strictly by Sharia law. Read more
Obama's war on religion - Bill Donohue of the Catholic League wrote a well documented column on Barack Obama's assault on religion -- an assault which does not seem to include Islam. The column has appeared at both NewsMax and the Catholic Leagues' internet site. I highly recommend it not only for Catholics, but for evangelicals and conservative Jews as well. Read more
Congress
Senator Rubio defends public prayer - In an op-ed just prior to the Supreme Court hearings on allowing prayers before public meetings, Senator Rubio said: I believe that part of what distinguishes America from the rest of the world is that we do not feel threatened by each other's faiths. The tradition of praying before meetings of governing or legislative bodies is common all across our country. In fact, it has been meaningful to me in my own career as a public servant." Read more
Prayer Caucus chairman defends public prayer - In a statement after the oral arguments at the Supreme Court on prayer before town-hall meetings, Congressman Randy Forbes made this statement: "The Establishment Clause of the Constitution was designed by the Founding Fathers to prohibit the government from coercing citizens to adhere, or not adhere, to a certain belief; it is not a license to remove all religious references from the public square." Read more
No special protection for drag queens - Nebraska Senators Deb Fischer and Mike Johanns have gone on record to oppose passage of the so-called "Employment Non-Discrimination Act" (ENDA), which would make drag queens, cross-dressers and transsexuals into federally protected minority groups. Read more Religion and Culture
Washington Post reluctantly covers terror story - Wednesday morning, the Washington Post published an article describing the use of social media by Syrian terrorists to memorialize killers who died in battle. The dead terrorists' faces were made to appear as if they were smiling. The Religious Freedom Coalition and WorldNetDaily ran stories on these Syrian "martyrs" back in July and correctly labeled them as terrorists, not "fighters" as does the Post. Read more

Afghanistan: British soldier killed by the policeman he trained - Lance Corporal Brent McCarthy is shown smiling beside an Afghan policeman in a photo. Just seconds after the photo was taken, the Muslim shot McCarthy to death along with his comrade, Lance Corporal Lee Davies. Read more
Syria: Number of British jihadists in Syria now in hundreds - The number of British Islamists who have gone to Syria to fight in the war there is in the "low hundreds", a senior UK intelligence official says. Read more
Syria: Huge statue of Jesus erected - In a government controlled area of Syria a statue of Jesus was erected on a mountain and can be seen from Lebanon, Jordan and Israel. In the Obama rebel controlled area the same week, a statue of the Virgin Mary was destroyed. Read more
Norway: Imam says all Muslims believe in killing gays - At an address delivered in English in Norway, Fahad Qureshi, founder of the Norwegian Islam Net organization, said that "normal" Muslims, not just radical extremists, support the death penalty for homosexuals, and stoning for adulterers.

Report From Washington - May 17, 2013
Editor: William J. Murray
Join me in a fact finding mission to Israel - A once in a lifetime mission led by William J. Murray, William Federer and Frank Gaffney, all three experts on Israel and Islamic affairs. Not a standard "tour," the mission includes visits to settlements and military bases plus evening panels. Read more
In this issue: IRS worked with Planned parenthood to deny pro-life groups tax status / George Soros groups worked with IRS to target conservatives / Obama Administration's work with group linked to terror funding / Congressman almost aborted by his then 17-year-old mom / Congressmen demand answers on radical Christian hater's meeting with Pentagon / Senator demands answers on diplomat's holding slaves / New video on Saudi slavery / Pope canonizes 800 victims of Islamic massacre / Christian leader assassinated / More dead in Nigeria / Bangladesh Islamic violence against the church / Syria rebels brag about being cannibals
The Presidency
Obama IRS refused tax exempt status to pro-life groups - The IRS didn't just target the Tea Party! The Coalition for Life of Iowa was told by the IRS they would not receive tax-exempt status unless they agreed not to picket/protest, or organize groups to picket or protest, outside of Planned Parenthood facilities. The IRS was acting as an arm of Planned Parenthood. Read more
George Soros funded groups spearheaded IRS probes - Barack Obama's confidante and supporter George Soros funds groups including the Campaign Legal Center, Democracy 21, the Center for Public Integrity, Mother Jones and Alternet; these groups pressured the IRS to target conservative nonprofit groups. The subsequent IRS investigation flagged more than 100 tea party-related applications for higher scrutiny, including applications that included the words "Tea Party" and "patriot." Read more
Obama Administration works with terror finance group - The Obama Administration's relationship with the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), a U.S. Muslim Brotherhood entity, has grown beyond strictly Muslim-related issues. On May 6, Vice President Biden met with about 20 interfaith leaders including ISNA President Mohamed Magid for two hours to rally religious support for gun control. Read more
Congress
Congressman almost victim of abortion - Representative Marlin Stutzman (R-IN) recently learned that his then 17-year-old mother nearly aborted him in 1975 after her house burned down and she had no place to live. His story is truly gripping. Read more
Congressmen demand answers on Pentagon relationship with militant atheist group - This week 59 legislators sent a letter of concern to Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel about the Pentagon meetings with anti-Christian atheist Mikey Weinstein. The letter outlines Weinstein's outrageous remarks about Christianity and questions the reasons for the Pentagon agreeing to the meeting with him. Weinstein is apparently an "advisor on religious tolerance" -- no, that's not a joke . Read more
Senator on human trafficking - Florida Senator Marco Rubio has questioned whether the State Department is failing to enforce human trafficking provisions when it comes to foreign diplomats. Rubio was reacting to reports of two Filipino domestic workers held as virtual slaves in a Saudi owned mansion in Virginia. Read more
No tax dollars for jihadists - The Religious Freedom Coalition has begun an online petition asking congressmen to speak out against any funding, military or otherwise, to jihadists anywhere in the world. The petition comes at a time the Obama Administration is furnishing help from the CIA, as well as cash and "humanitarian" aid, to jihadists fighting the secular government of Syria. Provide your name and zip code, and a copy of the petition will be faxed to your congressman free of charge. See petition here.
Religion and Culture
New video on Saudi slavery - On May 16th the Religious Freedom Coalition released a new video on the situation of Saudi diplomats holding domestic workers in their Virginia mansion as slaves. The legal word for this slavery is "domestic servitude," but by any name it is slavery. Read more
Pope recognizes victims of Muslim massacre - Pope Francis celebrated his first canonizations in the course of his Mass in St. Peter's Square last Sunday, giving the Catholic Church over 800 new saints. All but two (a Colombian nun and a Mexican nun) were the "martyrs of Otranto," who were beheaded for their faith after Turkish Muslims invaded their southern-Italian port city in 1480. Read more
International
Nigeria: Christian leader assassinated - Gunmen of the Islamic Boko Haram group this week assassinated the Rev. Faye Pama Musa, secretary of the Borno state chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN). Read more
Nigeria: 14 more dead in Islamic killing spree - Anti-Christian hostility drove an Islamic extremist killing spree in this village in northeastern Nigeria, though the attack was portrayed mainly as politically motivated, an area Christian leader says. Read more
Lebanon: Muslim TV preacher says "if only Hitler had finished off the Jews - In this TV clip of a Muslim preacher in one of the more "moderate" nations where Islam is the majority religion, the accusations fly against Jews. This is beyond anti-Semitic. Read more
Bangladesh: Violence against the church - Yes, that's the same Bangladesh where Kohl's and other stores buy most of their shirts. Scores of people have been killed in the clashes, which erupted in February. At least 37 died earlier this week as police tried to quash protests in the capital, Dhaka, where 70,000 Islamist demonstrators took to the streets on Sunday (5 May), calling for the introduction of an anti-blasphemy law. Read more
Syria: cannibalism and kidnapping - In recent days videos that I will NOT link to from our site show a Syrian "rebel" commander cutting out the heart of a Syrian soldier and eating it raw for a recruitment video. New videos also show rebels lining up and executing, one at a time, dozens of men without trial. The Syria Bishops kidnapped by the USA backed "rebels" are reported in good health but still held. Read about the Bishops
