The Best Osama Could Do

Oct 30, 2004 8:52 am By Robert Spencer

An encouraging assessment of what has been done so far. From a New York Post editorial : Osama’s goals have been to sow death and destruction in the name of his own sick religion. But things haven’t been working out so well. The 9/11 attack was intended principally to provoke a swift, indiscriminate American military […]

Sudanese rebels demand Islam be kept out of Darfur

Oct 30, 2004 8:39 am By Robert Spencer

Just yesterday I came across a Muslim writer (as part of a an attack on this site that was long on rhetoric but short on facts) asserting that the conflict in Darfur has nothing to do with jihad, but is ethnic — despite clear statements from Khartoum indicating otherwise. And now this: secularism must not […]

Gadahn’s conversion story still available at MSA website

Oct 30, 2004 8:20 am By Robert Spencer

When I wrote about Adam Gadahn last June, I made reference to his conversion story, which was available courtesy the Muslim Students Association at University of Southern California. It’s still there (thanks to Ixnay for the heads up). I don’t know if the MSA still thinks of Gadahn as a positive role model, or if […]

A commentary on the ongoing tragedy in Kosovo from the courageous and insightful Paul Weyrich.

Delaware: Muslim children given place to pray during Ramadan

Oct 30, 2004 8:06 am By Robert Spencer

I have no objection to this at all. But let a hundred flowers bloom: the Muslim students who were initially told they could not pray at school have now experienced what innumerable Christian students have experienced in public schools for years. I trust that Delaware officials will set aside areas for Christian prayer now too. […]

Georgia public schools to accommodate Friday prayers

Oct 30, 2004 7:53 am By Robert Spencer

I don’t actually have any problem with Muslims or anyone else taking time out of the school day for prayer. There is certainly enough nonsense and wasted time in the average public school day to justify any amount of time away, as far as I’m concerned. What concerns me here is that I seem to […]

Bangladesh: Ahmadiyya mosque razed, 12 houses robbed by jihadists

Oct 30, 2004 7:45 am By Robert Spencer

American Muslim leader: Muslims ‘need strong media campaign to boost image’

Oct 30, 2004 7:31 am By Robert Spencer

Interesting that he suggests that the Jewish lobby is strong because Muslims are weak. But most preposterous is his shoot-the-messenger assertion that “Western propaganda” has damaged the image of Islam. Osama bin Laden has damaged the image of Islam. The jihadists whose statements and actions I report and comment on here have damaged the image […]

Al-Jazeera Airs Videotape by Bin Laden

Oct 29, 2004 4:52 pm By Robert Spencer

Among other things that this tells us, it shows that he is alive. No other statement since shortly after 9/11 had Osama on video talking about any contemporary events. Also, will this finally silence all the corrosive drivel about how the CIA and/or Mossad pulled off 9/11? From AP: CAIRO, Egypt – Osama bin Laden, […]

The election, Thomas Sowell, and Daniel Pearl

Oct 29, 2004 11:38 am By Robert Spencer

The primary issue in this election is who is better equipped to fight back against the global jihad. The key word here is better. It makes little sense to eschew voting on the grounds that one candidate may be better than the other, but still not perfect. Every other issue — the Supreme Court, taxes, […]
