Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

U.S.-born editor of al-Qaeda’s “Inspire” reportedly expires in same airstrike that killed al-Awlaki

Sep 30, 2011 9:22 am By Marisol Seibold

A bad day for the Usual Gang of Idiots who incited and instructed prospective jihadist murderers. This, too, is likely to be painted as a petty political “assassination” by an annoyed government, even though Khan was reported to be “increasingly involved” in operational activities by al-Qaeda. Al-Awlaki was certainly the main target of the strike; […]

Hamas-linked CAIR “concerned” over killing of jihad mastermind al-Awlaki

Sep 30, 2011 8:32 am By Robert Spencer

This just went out in the “American Muslim News Briefs” email from the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR): CAIR: Al-Awlaki’s Calls to Violence Rejected by U.S. Muslims Civil rights group concerned about constitutional issues raised by assassination of American citizen (WASHINGTON, D.C., 9/30/11) — A prominent national Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization today […]

Left-wing commentator annoyed that al-Awlaki didn’t get “due process”

Sep 30, 2011 6:56 am By Marisol Seibold

The argument is completely immaterial. If, for example, there is an active shooter in a shopping center, school, or neighborhood, he is a clear and present danger to others, and the focus is on stopping him. “Due process” happens for the most part after the perpetrator is in handcuffs. If he won’t stop shooting and […]

Al-Awlaki the dead terrorist

Sep 30, 2011 4:08 am By Robert Spencer

At last, silence from al-Awlaki A desperately evil man who was linked to the 9/11 attacks (he was “spiritual adviser” to a couple of the hijackers) as well as to the Fort Hood jihad murder, the Christmas underwear jihad bombing attempt on an airplane over Detroit, and the Times Square jihad mass murder attempt, has […]

Spencer and Horowitz in National Review: The term “Islamophobia” is designed to create a modern-day thought crime

Sep 30, 2011 4:04 am By Robert Spencer

In “A Rational Fear of Islamism” in National Review today, David Horowitz and I discuss “Islamophobia,” showing that not all fears are irrational, nor criticism unwarranted. In recent months, several reports have appeared to a generally uncritical reception in the press, which purport to expose alleged conspiracies organized by “Islamophobes” against American citizens who mean […]

Geller: Victory for truth and free speech over Islamic supremacism

Sep 30, 2011 3:55 am By Robert Spencer

A CAIR-linked lawyer fails in his attempt to punish and marginalize a truth-teller. “Victory for Truth and Free Speech Over Islamic Supremacism,” by Pamela Geller in Human Events today: A years-long battle is over, and Islamic supremacism has suffered a stunning and well-deserved defeat in its ongoing war against free speech and those who dare […]

Sep 30, 2011 12:16 am By Marisol Seibold

An update on this story. “Iranian Pastor Sentenced to Death: Nadarkhani Refuses to Convert,” from International Business Times, September 29 (thanks to Kenneth): Iranian Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani, who is facing the death penalty, again refused to convert to Islam to save his life.

Sep 30, 2011 12:09 am By Marisol Seibold

His name is Mujahid. It looks like he grew into his name. An update on this story. “Birmingham terror arrests: Seventh man faces charges,” from BBC News, September 29: A seventh man is to face charges relating to a recent counter-terrorism operation in Birmingham, the Crown Prosecution Service says. Mujahid Hussain, 20, is charged with […]

Up to 20,000 anti-aircraft missiles stolen in Libya

Sep 30, 2011 12:05 am By Marisol Seibold

The Great Libyan Jihadist Garage Sale continues. Of all things, a Human Rights Watch official below is reportedly miffed at Obama’s decision not to put ground troops into Libya, blaming it for allowing this situation to materialize. “Free for all: Up to 20,000 anti-aircraft missiles stolen in Libya,” by Neal Munro for the Daily Caller, […]

“Christians are not permitted to react. The only alternative to escape is to suffer these abuses in silence” at the hands of Mindanao’s Islamic supremacists

Sep 30, 2011 12:02 am By Marisol Seibold

You’ll never guess why the churches are now constant guard. “Christians dispossessed and silenced in Mindanao,” from Asia News, September 29: Manila (AsiaNews) – In Jolo, Marawi, Basilan and other areas of Mindanao, the Christian minority is suffering harassment and pressure from the Muslim population, AsiaNews’ sources in Mindanao say. Government officials are forcing Christians […]

Syria: Fearing Sharia rule, Christians back Assad

Sep 29, 2011 5:25 pm By Robert Spencer

For all his many faults, Assad doesn’t rule strictly by Sharia. Thus Christians, although they do not have equal rights, live better than they do in Sharia regimes. “Fearing Change, Many Christians in Syria Back Assad,” from the New York Times, September 27: SAYDNAYA, Syria “” Abu Elias sat beneath the towering stairs leading from […]

Nigerian jihadists reject talks with government: “We still maintain our cause of ensuring strict implementation of Islamic law in Nigeria and waging war against infidels”

Sep 29, 2011 5:02 pm By Robert Spencer

The Nigerian government shouldn’t be negotiating with these mass-murdering jihadist thugs in the first place. But where are all the moderate Muslim spokesmen to explain to Boko Haram that they’re Misunderstanding Islam, and that it’s a Religion of Peace that doesn’t involve waging war against infidels? “Nigerian Islamists reject talks with government: spokesman,” from AFP, […]

Germany mulling surveillance of “Islamophobes”

Sep 29, 2011 4:38 pm By Robert Spencer

There was a jihad murder in Frankfurt last March. The jihadist murderer was inspired by a jihadist rapper in Germany. They’ve seen Islamic honor killing. In response, German authorities are stepping up monitoring of mosques and of Islamic communities in Germany, right? Of course not. Get real. They’re planning surveillance of “Islamophobes” — i.e., those […]

Tancredo on the Perry curriculum: Perry’s Muslim blind spot

Sep 29, 2011 4:25 pm By Robert Spencer

Amid the Perry camp’s patent dishonesty over what exactly the content of the curriculum really is, and brusque dismissal and ad hominem attacks against those who dare to raise questions about it, it is good to see former Congressman Tom Tancredo seeing things more clearly and confronting the problem more honestly. “Governor Perry”s Muslim blind […]

American Library Association recommends reading Qur’an for “Banned Books Week”

Sep 29, 2011 5:35 am By Robert Spencer

The American Library Association is a foremost bastion of Useful Idiots who talk a good game about censorship and the dangers of book banning, but are led by their political biases into inconsistency in their understanding of what constitutes a “Banned Book.” What they really mean by “Banned Books Week” is “Books Disliked by Conservatives […]

“Massachusetts musician” in Pentagon and Capitol jihad plot tried to buy 25 pounds of explosives, 3 grenades, 6 assault rifles

Sep 29, 2011 12:24 am By Marisol Seibold

What “radicalized” this guy, one too many drummer jokes? This case is yet another successful FBI sting, which has been a highly effective tool for steering jihadists intent on murder into a controlled “off ramp” that only leads to jail. Nonetheless, stand by for the standard claims of “entrapment.” There is one musician joke that […]

Saudi king overrules sentence of lashes for woman who drove

Sep 29, 2011 12:15 am By Marisol Seibold

A one-time overruling is not reform. Authorities still have the punishment to inflict if and when they see fit. Outrage spread quickly over this sentence, and surely influenced the outcome, but another sentence at another time, or under the next king, may go forward without a reprieve. An update on this story. “Saudi woman driver’s […]

U.S. confronted Pakistan with evidence of ISI-Haqqani links before going public

Even so, Pakistan has “decided not to take action against the Haqqani network for the time being.” “US confronts Pak with proof of ISI’s terror link,” from the Press Trust of India, September 28 (thanks to K): Washington: The US confronted Pakistan with “concrete evidences” of links between the ISI and extremist organisations like the […]

Experts dismiss Iran’s threat to deploy ships near U.S. waters as “bombastic rhetoric”

Sep 29, 2011 12:04 am By Marisol Seibold

Someone overreached a bit in the saber-rattling. The cost, logistics, and the capability that would be required are simply too much. That said, analysts did note that Iran’s chances, if it were that determined to pull off such a stunt, would improve with a little help from its friends — perhaps Venezuela. More on this […]

Al-Qaeda to Iran on 9/11 conspiracy theories: Hey, quit it!

Sep 29, 2011 12:02 am By Marisol Seibold

The “Usual Gang of Idiots” continues to write new material for al-Qaeda’s mad magazine, Inspire, which sounds less like a jihadist tract and more like a bargain brand from the toiletries aisle. In any event, the latest round includes a denunciation of Ahmadinejad’s peddling of 9/11 conspiracy theories that fail to give al-Qaeda due credit […]
