May 31, 2009 1:13 pm By Robert Spencer

Does Obama really think that strong-arming a reliable U.S. ally about these settlements will end the jihad against Israel?

Book to be published about Islamic oppression of women — fear of Muslim outrage

May 31, 2009 6:08 am By Robert Spencer

Hizballah: Elections part of jihad

May 30, 2009 4:42 am By Robert Spencer

Many Western analysts, even at the highest levels, seem to think that if a country is holding more or less free elections, then it attained “freedom,” and that that in itself will be, in very large part if not in full, an effective antidote to the problem of “terrorism.” Yet in Iraq, Shi’ites in particular […]
