Hamas women vow to become “martyrdom-seekers” by detonating among the “apes and pigs”

Dec 31, 2008 7:12 pm By Raymond Ibrahim

As Ibn Taymiyya demonstrated some 700 years past, “Defensive warfare is the most critical form of warfare, [since we are] warding off an invader from [our] sanctities and religion. It is a unanimously accepted duty. After belief, there is no greater duty than to repulse the invading enemy who corrupts faith and the world. There […]

Dec 31, 2008 5:52 pm By Robert Spencer

This video is also being sent around on Muslim email lists in the United States today. Kufr is unbelief. Fasad is mischief or corruption, for which the Qur’an prescribes penalties: “The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger, and strive with might and main for mischief through the land is: execution, […]

Muslims in American mosques praying for destruction of Israel

Dec 31, 2008 4:38 pm By Robert Spencer

I am getting reports from sources inside American mosques that the dua qunoot — a prayer for the destruction of Allah’s enemies — is being added to the regular prayers in American mosques. The prayer, which concludes, “Undoubtedly, your torment is going to overtake infidels,” is being added to every raka’ah, or unit of Islamic […]

Israel tries to minimize civilian casualties, Hamas tries to maximize them

Dec 31, 2008 4:31 pm By Robert Spencer

Israel targets an apartment building where weapons are being stored. The Israelis warn people to leave. Hamas tries to get people to stay and act as human shields — and if they had succeeded in this, of course, they would have trumpeted to the world the deaths of more innocents at the hands of the […]

Iranian newspaper shut down for article sympathetic to Israel

Dec 31, 2008 3:17 pm By Robert Spencer

“Free speech? Sure! You’re free to agree with me!” You have to lie about Israel’s “crimes” in Gaza, or you can’t publish in Iran. Here is a glimpse of the model of free speech that is rapidly coming to the West: “Iranian newspaper closed for pulishing [sic] article that was sympathetic to Israel,” from Reuters, […]

“Death to all juice”: Calling for genocide with plausible deniability?

Dec 31, 2008 2:52 pm By Robert Spencer

When I posted this picture Monday of a Muslim in New York holding a sign saying, “Death to All Juice,” a lot of people took it as the comical error of an illiterate. Jihad Watch commenter Urban Infidel knew better, and wrote this: The sign is funny, but he’s not kidding. It’s not the work […]

Israel’s action in Gaza: disproportionate? No

Dec 31, 2008 10:36 am By Robert Spencer

The always insightful and informative Andrew McCarthy explains why at The Corner: I have an article coming soon which calls (among other things) for a complete reappraisal of what “international law” means in the context of the ongoing conflict. I argue that there is no international law of warfare because Israel, like the U.S., has […]

Iran: “Volunteer student suicide groups … are determined to go to Gaza”

Dec 31, 2008 9:44 am By Robert Spencer

Headband: “Martyrdom” — which can be attained via mass murder Back when I was in school, we had volunteer service groups — you know, to clean up the school grounds, take care of handicapped students, etc. In Iran, volunteer student groups are a bit different. They’re hoping to gain Paradise by murdering Israeli civilians: “Allah […]

Somali jihadists: “We will not stop fighting even if the Ethiopian troops withdraw because our aim is to implement Islamic law across Somalia”

Dec 31, 2008 8:04 am By Robert Spencer

“The presence of the Ethiopian troops, whom many Somalis see as occupiers in their land…” Occupiers. And yet they will not stop fighting when the “occupation” is over. They will keep fighting until Islamic law is implemented. That, of course, is exactly the same situation with Israel and the jihad groups that threaten it, but […]

Dec 30, 2008 8:48 pm By Raymond Ibrahim

Stabbed for being a priest If a Christian had attacked and stabbed a Muslim in Turkey, would he too get four years, or would he be executed?

Iran: Students (i.e., “Muslim youth”) raid British Embassy

Dec 30, 2008 7:56 pm By Raymond Ibrahim

Trying to emulate their “righteous forebears” of 1979 at the US embassy? Surely Khomeini would be proud. Even though “Britain has called for an urgent ceasefire,” that’s not good enough. Nothing will ever be good enough — not allowing sharia courts to operate in Britain, nor financially supporting Hamas. The more you concede, the more […]
