Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Emerson: The American Islamic Leaders’ “Fatwa” is Bogus

Jul 29, 2005 7:46 am By Robert Spencer

Over at the Counterterrorism blog, the indefatigable and courageous Steven Emerson exposes some of the terror ties of those who trumpeted yesterday’s fatwa against terrorism: This morning a group of American Islamic leaders held a press conference to announce a fatwa, or Islamic religious ruling, against “terrorism and extremism.” An organization called the Fiqh Council […]

United American Committee urges forthright action against jihad terror

Jul 29, 2005 6:27 am By Robert Spencer

From a statement by the United American Committee: …the organization is demanding that Washington awake to the issue of Islamic extremism in America. “We can not afford to allow terrorists to spread their ideology in prison, or anywhere in America.” says U.A.C. founder Jesse Petrilla responding to yesterday”s sentence of would be LAX bomber Ahmed […]

Hispanic, Muslim Groups Call on Colorado Congressman to Resign

Jul 28, 2005 9:05 pm By Robert Spencer

Should he resign? Of course not. Has he done anything wrong? Of course not. All options should be discussed — and discussed openly. I have been bitterly attacked here and elsewhere today, and even called a dhimmi (which really is just about the worst thing you can call me, as opposed to the terms of […]

Doublespeak Unveiled: Muslim “moderates” are true to spirit of Islam

Jul 28, 2005 8:58 pm By Robert Spencer

Bruce Thorton makes numerous important observations about the dhimmis in the Administration and some revealing behavior on the part of “moderate Muslims” in Private Papers (thanks to Looney Tunes): As stalwart as the Bush administration has been in the current conflict with Islamic jihadists, judging from the op-ed in last Saturday’s New York Times by […]

The myth of moderate Islam

Jul 28, 2005 8:50 pm By Robert Spencer

The estimable Patrick Sookhdeo, who has done superlative work tracing the systematic denial of rights and persecution of Christians by Muslims in Pakistan, has written a superb piece underscoring what I have said many, many times: there are moderate Muslims, but Islam itself is not moderate: the teachings that the jihad terrorists use to justify […]

you jew

Jul 28, 2005 8:31 pm By Robert Spencer

That was the subject line of a love note I received this evening from a Muslim who has clearly heeded the CAIR fatwa, and knows that the real Muslim is the one who loves peace: remenber you evil zionist terrorist, not all of us are stupid, we know that muhammed came with the truth from […]

Coptic TV Show Causes Controversy in Egypt

Jul 28, 2005 5:15 pm By Robert Spencer

Unlike many other Middle Eastern Christians, Fr. Zakaria Boutrus is not afraid to speak the truth. From MEMRI, with thanks to the Constantinopolitan Irredentist: The weekly show “Questions About Faith” on the Egyptian based Christian Al-Hayat satellite channel features an Egyptian Coptic priest residing in the United States. Father Zakaria Boutrus, the show, and Al-Hayat […]

U.S. Muslim Fatwa Against Terrorism

Jul 28, 2005 4:56 pm By Robert Spencer

Here is the text of today’s fatwa, via CAIR (thanks to David Ouellette). It suffers from the same problem that I noted here and here: it condemns the taking of innocent lives and actions against civilians. It doesn’t address statements by Muslims to the effect that civilians in various places are not innocent, and are […]

American Muslim anti-terror declaration

Jul 28, 2005 3:06 pm By Robert Spencer

This is not the text of the fatwa that was issued today, but it is a “Declaration of Support and Action Against Terrorism” signed by numerous American Muslim leaders. I expect it is similar to the fatwa, although we shall see. From the Muslim American Society’s site (thanks to David Ouellette), with my comments interspersed: […]

Moroccans Beat Up van Gogh’s Son, 14

Jul 28, 2005 2:12 pm By Robert Spencer

You’d think the vast majority of decent, law-abiding Muslims (about whom we hear so much, but whom we never see taking action against the jihadists) would be coming up to Lieuwe van Gogh, son of the murdered Theo van Gogh, expressing their sorrow, and offering their condolences. Instead, this. From Rogier Van Bakel’s Nobody’s Business […]

American Muslim Scholars: Terror Violates Islam

Jul 28, 2005 1:53 pm By Robert Spencer

Nearly four years after 9/11, during which time jihadists have carried out 2,647 terrorist attacks, American Muslim scholars have gotten around to condemning terrorism. It is unclear from this report whether in their fatwa they make the necessary distinctions: do they stipulate that American and British civilians are indeed “innocent civilians” and thus not to […]

Key London bombs suspect arrested in Zambia

Just in from the TimesOnline: A senior British al-Qaeda operative sought by authorities since the July 7 bombing attacks on London has been arrested in Zambia. The Los Angeles Times reported today that Haroon Rashid Aswat, a 30-year-old of Indian descent who grew up in West Yorkshire, was arrested last week and is being held […]

New York: Muslim cleric gets 75 years for conspiring to fund Al-Qaeda and Hamas

Jul 28, 2005 1:36 pm By Robert Spencer

Al-Moayad update. Evidently this is yet another Muslim cleric who has misunderstood Islam. I expect Ibrahim Hooper will be on the phone to him forthwith to explain to him the error of his ways. “Yemeni Cleric Receives 75-Year Sentence,” from AP, with thanks to Sr. Soph: NEW YORK (AP) — A judge on Thursday sentenced […]

Bomb suspect ‘berated shopkeeper for not being proper Muslim’

Jul 28, 2005 12:50 pm By Robert Spencer

As I have noted many times, it is the jihadists who in the Islamic community wear the mantle of being true and pure Muslims. No self-professed moderates have yet successfully challenged that. From The Telegraph, with thanks to Skeetstreet: The suspected terrorist accused of trying to bomb a tube train at Warren Street used to […]

The D.C. Watson Invitational: A Politically Incorrect Poll on Islam

Jul 28, 2005 10:36 am By Robert Spencer

DC Watson reacts to this poll with his own poll: The recently published Pew poll has announced that fewer Americans are linking Islam with violence, dropping from 44% in 2003 to 36% presently. No surprise here: the Council on American Islamic Relations has welcomed the results of this survey, which is in sharp contrast to […]

Fallaci: The Enemy We Treat Like A Friend Part II

Jul 28, 2005 7:14 am By Robert Spencer

Here is Part II of Oriana Fallaci’s latest (part I is here), again from the Mystery Achievement blog (thanks to JS): Will the massacre touch us too?–will it really touch us the next time? Oh, yes. I haven’t the slightest doubt. I”ve never had the slightest doubt. I”ve been saying this, too, for the last […]

9 More Methodists Arrested in Botched London Attacks — Oh, Wait…

Jul 28, 2005 6:50 am By Robert Spencer

I’m sorry. They weren’t Methodists at all. They were actually Muslims. I know it’s hard to believe that Muslims could have anything to do with terrorism, but there it is. “9 More Arrested in Botched London Attacks,” from AP, with thanks to the Constantinopolitan Irredentist: LONDON – Anti-terrorist officers arrested nine men in raids early […]

Spencer: Nuke Mecca? Nope.

Jul 28, 2005 6:46 am By Robert Spencer

I discuss an unexamined side of the Tancredo controversy in FrontPage: his suggestion wouldn’t work. Have at it. Why not bomb Mecca? Congressman Tom Tancredo (R-CO) has brought the issue to the table. The Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) has demanded that he apologize to Muslims, and commentators left and right have subjected him […]

The war on terror is over!

Jul 27, 2005 9:22 pm By Robert Spencer

Some time ago I suggested in an article that the phrase “war on terror” be discarded in favor of a more forthright acknowledgement that we are defending ourselves against a global jihad. And the good news today is that the Administration has, after over a year, heeded my advice and discarded the “war on terror” […]
