Seven Flights from Europe to U.S. Canceled

Jan 31, 2004 1:03 pm By Robert Spencer

Seven more flights have just been grounded. Could this be connected with threats made by terrorists some time ago to mount a major attack around the time of the Hajj? This from Fox News: Just one day after U.S. officials expressed renewed security concerns over flights from London and Paris bound for the U.S., British […]

Pakistan: Christian jailed on dubious blasphemy charge

Jan 31, 2004 8:39 am By Robert Spencer

Since Pakistan’s blasphemy law was drafted by and is enforced by Muslims, virtually every blasphemy charge is dubious: a Christian can be accused of blasphemy simply by affirming his faith, since the Qur’an states that “they do blaspheme who say: ‘Allah is Christ the son of Mary’” (Sura 5:72). Note that this is a tendentious […]

News from the Hajj

Jan 31, 2004 8:18 am By Robert Spencer

It is time for the great Muslim pilgrimage to Mecca, the Hajj, which every California public school student well knows is one of the five pillars of Islam. I wrote last year about how the Hajj has frequently been marred by violence, and this year again, pilgrims have some company. This from Straits Times, : […]

“We were asleep. Opportunities were lost”

Jan 31, 2004 7:35 am By Robert Spencer

So says Tom Kean, chairman of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States. It seems that not only did the 9/11 highjackers get past immigration. They also made it easily through airport security, despite arousing suspicion. This from AP: It’s long been known that U.S. authorities had opportunities to stop at least […]

Jan 30, 2004 9:51 am By Robert Spencer

At last it has been said: Even with the continuing wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the bigger challenge in the global war on terrorism is the threat posed by extremists in Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, the commander of U.S. forces in that region said Thursday. Gen. John Abizaid, commander of U.S. Central Command, told a […]

Australian intelligence agencies miss terror suspect

Jan 30, 2004 8:30 am By Robert Spencer

America isn’t the only place with porous visa controls. An accused terror financier arrested in the US last week had only just returned from a trip to Australia where he is believed to have a child. In an embarrassing security blunder, the arrest took Australia’s intelligence agencies – who were unaware the suspect was in […]

Hizballah entering U.S. through Mexico

Jan 30, 2004 8:14 am By Robert Spencer

Terence Jeffrey has been courageous and virtually alone in pointing out that Islamic radicals are entering the United States through Mexico. Now, he shows that a Hezballah operative entered the country this same way. (Thanks to LGF.) Politicians serious about preventing another Sept. 11 should listen to the leader of Hizballah, and then read an […]

7th Man in N.Y. Terror Cell Case Arrested

Jan 29, 2004 6:43 pm By Robert Spencer

The seventh member of the terrorist cell in Lackawanna, New York has been caught. And from the lawyers from the other six comes more confirmation that jihadis are motivated by religion. Why, then, do so many analysts continue to discount what the Islamic religion can reveal about the motives and goals of terrorists? This from […]

Aspiration, not desperation: why suicide bombers do it

Jan 29, 2004 9:06 am By Robert Spencer

Itamar Marcus and Barbara Crook explain in the Jerusalem Post what I have long contended: that suicide bombings are not the result of poverty and desperation, but of deeply held religious motivations. “I always wanted to be the first woman who sacrifices her life for Allah. My joy will be complete when my body parts […]

Dhimmitude at the New York Times

Jan 29, 2004 7:36 am By Robert Spencer

Charles at LGF hits the nail on the head about a New York Times op-ed, “My God is Your God” by John Kearney.

Jan 29, 2004 7:11 am By Robert Spencer

B. Raman in OutlookIndia points out that “till now, strategic analysts have been focusing only on the dangers of a possible Talibanisation or Al Qaedisation of the Pakistan Army.

“Voice of Jihad” calls for big attack on U.S.

Jan 29, 2004 7:04 am By Robert Spencer

One thing not emphasized in our earlier report on the latest issue of Al-Qaeda’s “Voice of Jihad” is that the organization is still threatening a major attack on American soil. Many such threats have proved baseless quite recently. Here’s hoping they continue to do so. This from UPI, with thanks to Jean-Luc: The current strategy […]
