  2. #GregAbbott sent a letter Friday to the heads of the Houston airport & Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport that said facilities aimed at serving one religious group are discriminatory against everyone else.

    Abbott said he has asked the US Dept of Transportation to investigate both airports & warned that his office is “reviewing all grants to any local governmental entities involved in these schemes.”

  3. …Public #wudu stations are also open at places including the University of Minnesota, the University of Michigan, LaGuardia Airport in New York & O’Hare International Airport in Chicago.

  4. For years, travelers passing through Texas’s airports have had access to small washing stations for a ritual called #wudu, in which #Muslims clean their hands, arms, head & feet before the 5 daily #prayers.
    
Such facilities have become more common in states with large #Muslim populations, including #Texas, where travelers & others pop in & out of washing stations at Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport.

  5. "I worked for LNER for 18 years. In 2025, I was sacked after saying “Free Palestine” outside of work. Yet other staff who have posted Islamophobic rhetoric online have faced no consequences and kept their jobs.
    This is hypocrisy. LNER has punished me for showing solidarity with Palestine, while allowing Islamophobia to go unchecked in the workplace."

    Whipping up hatred as Abbott is doing here is so repugnant and dangerous.

    How Mr. Commandments in the Classroom can appeal to "constitutional protections against religious discrimination" to justify his bigotry is beyond satire.

  9. The bigot eventually blocked me after I told him the torment of the grave awaits him. It's an Instagram comment section; I ain't gonna write a long-ass essay, and I'm not there to convince any bigot that I mean no harm. I ain't gonna lie. I absolutely mean harm. Not worldly harm, just the afterlife. A girl can wish, pray, and curse, babes. I've been told I exercise my free will really well.

    But I wrote my complete argument on whether Islam is compatible with Western civilisation in this article wrzky.com/is-islam-compatible-

    If you can comprehend what you read, please do. Read it, share it, use it for reference when you want to argue with bigots, what have you.

    If you want to read this just to argue with me, be my guest; bring your fathers and your fathers' fathers, too. I can't promise I will be civil.

  10. Is Islam Compatible with Western Civilisation?

    When someone declares that Islam is "incompatible with Western civilisation," why is the West automatically treated as the moral standard? Before you judge whether Islam fits your "Western" world, you must first prove that your world is morally defensible.

  11. The Conservative Westminster councillors draft policy decreed that newly licensed pubs should have to serve last orders at 10pm, would ban #VerticalDrinking, and require table service.

    And it will absolutely fry their tiny, islamophobic minds that their abominable plan has been vetoed by a Muslim mayor. ❤️🤣

    The right doesn't understand 21st-century London.

  12. India is also participating in the unspoken war on Islam [1,2,3] and starts to draw more attention over complicity in Israel’s genocide on Palestinians:

    “India manufactures and supplies arms transferred to Israel through its ownership and control over key supplier companies. Not only has India failed to regulate arms exports to Israel by private companies in line with international law and standards; it has also deepened its defence partnership with Israel.”

  13. The night Belfast burned: how the Northern Ireland race riots unfolded.

    A stabbing in June sparked another summer’s night of racial violence, stoked by loyalist groups.

    How did the unrest erupt – and why do many fear it will happen again?
