Spencer: Obama Busily Appeasing Jihadists

Apr 30, 2009 6:53 pm By Robert Spencer

In Human Events today, I discuss the momentous first hundred days. And I expect that we ain’t seen nothin’ yet. “To the Muslim world,” said Barack Obama in his Inaugural Address, “we seek a new way forward, based on mutual interest and mutual respect.” After 100 days, how’s that going? Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad summed […]

David Petraeus said he is looking for concrete action by the Pakistani government to destroy the Taliban in the next two weeks before […]

Apr 30, 2009 1:13 pm By Raymond Ibrahim

Not quite as “zealous” as Britain’s Muslims, 61% of which want sharia, but a start. “Denmark: 18% of Muslims want to see Sharia law implemented,” from Islam in Europe, April 30: Close to a fifth of Muslims in Denmark want to see Sharia law implemented in Denmark. A study conducted by analysis institute Capacent for […]

German creationist cell planned September 11 anniversary attacks — no, wait…

Apr 30, 2009 12:58 pm By Robert Spencer

Not even Ron-Paulians or Glenn-Beckites. Islamic jihadists again, oddly enough. “German cell planned September 11 anniversary attacks,” from Expatica, April 30 (thanks to Sr. Soph): Duesseldorf — Four suspected Islamic militants on trial for plotting to kill Americans in Germany discussed carrying out bombings on the sixth anniversary of 9/11, police said Wednesday. Giving evidence […]

Stop the presses! Algerian imam defends terrorism!

Apr 30, 2009 11:47 am By Robert Spencer

Yet another Islamic cleric defends the jihadist perspective. Yesterday I received an email from a student in England who wished to dispute what he characterized as my “claim that Islamist terrorism is justified in Islam and properly represents an element in the Islamic tradition of Jihad (whether expansionist or non-expansionist).” He referred to “the prohibition […]

Nashville: Hospital pays $70,000 to Muslim after denying him time off for trip to Mecca

Apr 30, 2009 10:24 am By Robert Spencer

But it denies discriminating against him. It looks as if the hospital paid just to make this suit go away, which may make sense for them in the short term, but — particularly given their non-admission of any discrimination — sets a precedent that will make it more difficult in the future for non-Muslim businesses […]

Wilders: Why I Am In America Fighting for Free Speech

Apr 30, 2009 9:25 am By Robert Spencer

Adam Hasner (thanks to Patrick Poole): Freedom of expression is under attack. That is the theme I am addressing here in America this week as part […]

Saudi judge annuls marriage between 8-year-old girl and man in his fifties

Apr 30, 2009 8:37 am By Robert Spencer

But he stopped short of banning child marriage or the practice of selling daughters into marriage. How could he ban child marriage when Muhammad, the prophet of Islam and the “excellent example of conduct” (Qur’an 33:21), married Aisha when she was six and consummated the marriage when she was nine (and he was 54)? An […]

UK airline wipes Israel off the map to avoid offending Muslims

Apr 30, 2009 8:28 am By Robert Spencer

Reality offends them. Raymond just wrote in to remind me that BMI has been following a consistent pattern of dhimmitude, asking flight attendants to walk behind men and wear Muslim garb while in Saudi Arabia, and forbidding staff from taking Bibles and Christian items into Saudi Arabia. “BMI airline wipes Israel off the map,” from […]

Catching Reza Aslan stretching the truth

Apr 30, 2009 8:27 am By Robert Spencer

Kamala, who raised important (and still unanswered) questions in his superb review of Sumbul Ali-Karamali’s The Muslim Next Door: The Qur’an, the Media, and that Veil thing, now examines Reza Aslan‘s How to Win a Cosmic War. Here is Kamala’s take on Aslan’s most egregious (and melodramatic) falsehood — that a one day trip to […]

Egyptian Christians riot after government decision to kill all pigs

Apr 30, 2009 7:55 am By Raymond Ibrahim

Further evidence that the wholly unnecessary Egyptian order to eliminate the country of all swine is based on assuaging Muslim paranoia regarding “unclean pigs” at the expense of creating (more) economic hardships for Christians. More on this story. “Egyptian Christians riot after swine flu cull,” by Philippe Naughton for the Times Online, April 29: Egyptian […]

UAE bans pork imports to combat swine flu, even though swine flu is not spread by eating pork

Apr 30, 2009 7:08 am By Robert Spencer

Craving unsatisfied The UAE joins Egypt. Since swine flu is not spread by eating pork, this banning seems to be simply an instrument of Islamization and a means to harass non-Muslims. “UAE bans pork imports to combat swine flu,” from Reuters, April 30 (thanks to James): DUBAI (Reuters) – The United Arab Emirates has banned […]

Israeli intel: “Obama wants to make friends with our worst enemies and until now the worst enemies of the United States”

Apr 30, 2009 6:00 am By Robert Spencer

“Obama will want to show Iran, Syria and radical Muslims that the United States could pressure Israel on a strategic level.” If Israel falls, the jihad will not end. It will, in fact, be emboldened as never before, and focus with new energy and confidence upon Europe and elsewhere. If Israel falls, the United States […]

Thailand: Jihadists kill 10 civilians, AP says they’re reacting to “a history of discrimination”

Apr 30, 2009 5:45 am By Robert Spencer

Note how AP considers and breezily dismisses the possibility that these jihadists might be fighting to establish an Islamic state. But are they suffering from discrimination? Hardly — the Thai government is even considering giving them Sharia. “10 killed by suspected insurgents in Thailand,” by Sumeth Panpetch for AP, April 28 (thanks to Pamela): PATTANI, […]
