DHS funds used to bring jihad sympathizer to Tufts
One shouldn’t judge Tufts’ Hillel too harshly. After all, when Edina Lekovic and I were on the O’Reilly Factor with Laura Ingraham guest-hosting, Ingraham spent a great deal of time praising Lekovic for her moderation — right before Lekovic began lying about what I stand for. And that, of course, was before Steven Emerson caught […]

Yemen: Al-Qaeda fighting rebels ‘at government’s request’
“Sheikh Osama bin Laden ordered us not to attack [the government] in the country and to combat only the communists, but the relationship with the government soured after the end of the war with Southern Yemen in 1994.” Sounds similar to the reputed deal they made with the Saudis also.

Venomous Islamophobe kills 6 in Afghan mosque — no, wait…
What’s that? The killer wasn’t an Islamophobe at all? He was actually a Muslim, a jihad/martyrdom bomber laying hold of Allah’s promise of Paradise to those who “kill and are killed” for Allah (Qur’an 9:111)? What are you, some kind of Islamophobe? “Suicide bomber kills 6 in Afghan mosque,” by Noor Khan for Associated Press […]

Pakistani jihad leader: “We want to eradicate Britain and America…We pray that Allah will enable us to destroy the White House, New York, and London”
Maybe he thinks he and his fellow jihadists will destroy us from within. In any case, note the strong Islamic content of his appeal — while the learned Western analysts continue to dismiss this, the most prominent feature of what he is saying, as mere window dressing that manifests a deep misunderstanding of the religion. […]
Muslim in Canada: Killing Canadians “best way”
But never fear: the Mounties are on the case. Hate speech laws are dangerous, because jihadists and their allies will use them as much as they can to silence resistance to jihadist activities. However, there ought to be some way to limit the activities of this treasonous individual, just as no one would have tolerated […]

But you can still get it in Indonesia Hey, what about The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades)? What about The Truth About Muhammad?

Fitzgerald: Narrowness of vision in the military
Here is a comment bemoaning the release of the Wilders film by someone in an army magazine. The dismissal by Bill Roggio is warranted.
