Misunderstanders of Islam attack security forces in Nigeria, 70 killed

Dec 31, 2009 10:51 am By Robert Spencer

If they disagree with the Koran, they are heretical.” “70 dead in clashes in northern […]

Dec 31, 2009 10:34 am By Robert Spencer

Opposing jihad is racism Of course, we know that all Albanian Muslims are modern, moderate and secular, and so this guy doubtless had some other motive. And maybe he did. But it must be admitted that there is an unusually high correlation between Islamic faith and people who just seem to “snap” and commit random […]

Malaysian high court overturns gov’t ban on Catholic paper’s use of “Allah”

Dec 31, 2009 6:59 am By Marisol Seibold

Thwarting a supremacist power play by the increasingly Islamic government. The government insulted its own constituents’ intelligence by claiming that The Herald’s use of “Allah” (as has been used in Arabic-speaking lands well before Islam) would confuse Muslims. Of course, the true meaning of the gesture was to portray the non-Muslims’ claim to authentic worship […]

The EuroMed Partnership: opening the floodgates for jihad in Europe

Dec 30, 2009 8:04 pm By Robert Spencer

In “Europe’s looming demise” in the Washington Times today, Pamela Geller discusses a little-noticed initiative that could open the floodgates for jihad in Europe: Come Jan. 1, 2010, a disastrous and suicidal pact called the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership (Europe/Mediterranean) goes into effect with little fanfare or examination. It boggles the mind that such a consequential and […]

Yemen: Classmate of Flight 253 jihadist says he wanted to bring “peace and brotherhood to the world through Islam”

Ron Paul: “They’re terrorists because we’re occupiers”

Dec 30, 2009 5:46 pm By Robert Spencer

Obama believes essentially the same thing: that the jihad is a response to various actions of the West, which if we stop doing, all will be well. In line with this assumption, Paul apparently thinks that the Flight 253 jihad attack was a response to U.S. airstrikes in Yemen. However, according to an unnamed source […]

Dec 30, 2009 10:32 am By Robert Spencer
