Now you can breathe easy, Infidels: Wheelchair-bound nun searched by TSA

Nov 29, 2010 11:18 am By Robert Spencer

Jihad Watch reader Jim writes: Here’s a picture I took on my phone when passing through security in Miami on Wednesday. The nun was travelling with three others, not unlike the Flying Imams come to think of it. My wife, Laurie, not a nun, said “Look!” and I turned and snapped this shot before the […]

Three days after a Muslim tries to kill thousands of Infidels in Oregon, OIC chief says West is spreading “Islamophobia”

Nov 29, 2010 9:31 am By Robert Spencer

No, Ihsanoglu. Mohamed Mohamud is spreading “Islamophobia,” if it really exists at all. Nidal Hasan is spreading “Islamophobia.” Faisal Shahzad is spreading “Islamophobia.” Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad is spreading “Islamophobia.” Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab is spreading “Islamophobia.” But Ihsanoglu will never admit that. If he can convince the Western political elites that “Islamophobia” is really the fault […]

Nov 29, 2010 8:48 am By Robert Spencer

Pointed and well-reasoned analysis of the opposition to Oklahoma’s Sharia ban from an ace lawyer. “Criticism of the Oklahoma Amendment banning Shariah from State Courts: Legitimate or ill-considered?,” by David Yerushalmi, November 29: Introduction Criticism of the Oklahoma constitutional amendment (Question 755), which prohibits state courts from “considering or using” international law or sharia, was […]

Jihadist in Afghan police uniform murders six NATO troops

Nov 29, 2010 8:01 am By Robert Spencer

“NATO and Afghan officials were unable to confirm whether the person who carried out the shooting was actually a member of the border police or if it was an insurgent who had infiltrated the Afghan security forces.” And how hard could they be to infiltrate? How do they screen out jihadists? They don’t even attempt […]

Backlash questions

Nov 29, 2010 7:41 am By Robert Spencer

As the mainstream media’s “Muslims Fear Backlash” Industry swings into high gear, focusing attention on how Muslims in Portland, Oregon, are afraid of vigilante attacks after the attempted jihad attack at the Christmas tree lighting ceremony there last Friday, I have just two questions: 1. Is there any substantial evidence that there has ever been […]

Iran used ambulances to deliver arms to Hizballah

Nov 29, 2010 6:05 am By Robert Spencer

And if Israel had targeted those ambulances, you can just imagine the international outcry. “US memos: Iran armed Hezbollah through ambulances,” from AP, November 29 (thanks to JCB): BEIRUT – Iranian Red Crescent ambulances were used to smuggle weapons to Lebanon’s militant Hezbollah group during its 2006 war with Israel, according to newly leaked U.S. […]

Oregon residents fear more jihad attacks after Christmas tree lighting plot — no, wait…

Nov 29, 2010 6:00 am By Robert Spencer

The mainstream media line after any jihad attack or foiled plot is not about how Muslims are working to prove their loyalty to America and redoubling their efforts to root out the jihadists within their communities. It is not about how they’re instituting programs in mosques and Islamic schools to teach against the jihadist understanding […]

Spencer: Even in Oregon

Nov 29, 2010 5:27 am By Robert Spencer

In FrontPage this morning I discuss how the reaction of various parties to the Portland jihad bust follows a sadly familiar pattern: A nineteen-year old Somali Muslim named Mohamed Osman Mohamud was arrested Friday in Portland, Oregon, just as he was trying to blow up a van loaded with explosives at a Christmas tree lighting […]

Nov 29, 2010 5:09 am By Robert Spencer

The legal intimidation libel case against my colleague Pamela Geller continues.

Portland, Oregon refused to participate in Joint Terrorism Task Force in 2005

Nov 28, 2010 7:28 pm By Robert Spencer

And Friday it almost reaped the bitter fruits of that decision. Leftist/Jihadist Alliance Update: “Politically correct Portland rejected feds who saved city from terrorist attack,” by Byron York in The Examiner, November 28 (thanks to Pamela Geller): In 2005, leaders in Portland, Oregon, angry at the Bush administration’s conduct of the war on terror, voted […]

Islamic supremacist Reza Aslan can’t stop thinking about Jihad Watch

Nov 28, 2010 6:17 pm By Robert Spencer

We are always on Reza’s mind Reza Aslan is being exposed at Jihad Watch: not only his adolescent gutter mentality and inability to hold a rational debate, but also the evidence that he is a deceptive Islamic supremacist who is widely taken as a “moderate.” Aslan has called on the U.S. Government to negotiate not […]

Shifting the focus: arson attack against Oregon jihadist’s mosque

Nov 28, 2010 5:54 pm By Robert Spencer

Generally after a jihad attack in the United States, whether successful or not, mainstream media outlets run multiple stories about how Muslim communities fear a “backlash” against innocent Muslims from enraged “Islamophobic” rednecks. Of course, such “backlashes” never materialize, but the purpose of such stories is to shift the public’s attention away from the reality […]

Divorce causes jihad: Oregon jihadist “embraced militant Islam not long after his parents split up”

Nov 28, 2010 5:29 pm By Robert Spencer

The search for some explanation, any explanation, for Mohamed Mohamud’s attempted jihad mass-murder other than the texts and teachings of Islam has now begun in earnest. The first entry: Mohamud became “radicalized” after his parents split. And it’s true: the divorce of parents has driven many an unhappy child to try to set off a […]

Imam of mosque that failed Oregon jihadist attended: “there wasn’t anything that would prompt me to think he would plan this. It’s completely, clearly, textually denounced in the Islamic religion”

Nov 28, 2010 11:22 am By Marisol Seibold

Wanly did not offer chapter and verse in this report, but we’re probably going hear a lot about apologists’ favorite verse to cherry-pick, Qur’an 5:32 (no one ever includes 5:33 for fuller context, of course), which reads: “We decreed for the Children of Israel that whosoever killeth a human being for other than manslaughter or […]
