For background on these “youths,” see here and here. “Police injured as violence flares in suburbs of Paris,” from the Telegraph, with thanks to Tim: At least 100 youths, many brandishing baseball bats, clashed with police in a new outbreak of violence in the same Parisian suburbs in which nationwide rioting started last autumn. The […]

American Linguist Noam Chomsky: Hamas Policies Are More Conducive to a Peaceful Settlement than Those of the U.S. or Israel
In my 2003 book Onward Muslim Soldiers, I skewer Chomsky and the Left’s general eagerness to unite with the jihadists who will, if given the chance, happily subjugate their allies along with the rest of us. Here is more evidence. From MEMRITV, with thanks to all who sent this in: Following are excerpts from an […]
German Women Vowed to Mount Suicide Attacks in Iraq
They have “close contacts to the Islamist scene in Germany and at least one…has converted to Islam.” The phenomenon of white European converts to Islam, and like-minded fellow travelers, underscores that this is not a problem of race, but of ideology. Even if Europe’s immigration crisis were solved tomorrow, the jihad ideology would not be […]
Islamic Jihad group threatens…more jihad
Since Iran funds Islamic Jihad and Hamas, and they are dedicated to continuing their jihad as a “holy religious obligation” until the last Israeli is “removed from the holy Palestinian land,” it should be obvious that Iran is already at war with Israel. A nuclear attack would just be a continuation of that war. And […]
Jury Finds Beltway Jihadist Guilty of Six Murders
Beltway Sniper Jihad Update. “Jury Finds Sniper Guilty of Six Murders,” from AP, with thanks to all who sent this in: ROCKVILLE, Md. (AP) — John Allen Muhammad was convicted of six of the Washington-area sniper killings Tuesday after the prosecution’s star witness, Muhammad’s young protege, portrayed him as the mastermind of an audacious terror […]
Blunders that left Abu Hamza free
Abu Hamza should have been expelled from Britain twenty-five years ago. Think about that. Twenty-five years of jihad recruitment. Think of how many he preached to in (and later, outside) the Finsbury Park Mosque. How many believed him? How many took his words to heart? Where are they now? What are they doing? Why have […]
Cheney Urges Naval Academy Class of 2006 to Know the Enemy
This is interesting advice, since our chief criticism of the Administration over the last few years at Jihad Watch has been centered on the apparent fact that the key players don’t seem to understand the enemy, and that this is leading to policy mistakes of an increasingly disastrous type. Naval Academy grads: congratulations. Contact me […]
Dick Sartain, RIP
When I spoke in late April at the America’s Truth Forum Symposium in Washington, I had the honor of meeting Dick Sartain. I had corresponded with him for some time; he kindly kept me informed about his quiet activities exposing jihadist activity in the Dallas, Texas area. People often ask me: What can I do, […]
An Islamist human rights activist
In “Omani dissident promises to keep speaking out” from Agence France Presse (thanks to DFS), Taiba al-Mawali is called both an “Islamist” and a “human rights activist.” And, apparently with abundant justification, a “very unusual woman.” It would be interesting to know whether she thinks general equality of rights should be accorded to women in […]
Azerbaijan ‘flattened’ sacred Armenian site
The Azeris deny that they have destroyed the site. But everyone is just going to have to take their word for it; no one can go look for himself. To destroy the site, of course, would be in keeping with the Islamic concept of jahiliyya, pre-Islamic ignorance. This site has no value: it is not […]
