Massachusetts: Misunderstander of Islam arrested for jihad plot to destroy Pentagon, Capitol building

Sep 28, 2011 1:28 pm By Robert Spencer

What is it that “radicalizes” a “26-year-old Massachusetts man” like Rezwan Ferdaus? Reading about the exploits of Sam Adams and the Sons of Liberty? A rough game of touch football with Jack, Bobby and Ted? And what, oh what, could be the inciting literature to which this poor fellow was exposed? Common Sense? Democracy In […]

L’shana tova!

Sep 28, 2011 11:12 am By Robert Spencer

Wishing a happy and sweet new year to all Jewish Jihad Watchers, and to all Jihad Watchers of whatever background who are friends of Israel. Israel is, now more than ever, on the front lines of the global jihad. With all the calls for the establishment of a Palestinian State, which would like Gaza become […]

Australia: Misunderstanders of Islam arrested in stolen car with rifles, handguns, balaclavas

Sep 28, 2011 11:02 am By Robert Spencer

Milad bin Ahmad-Shah al-Ahmadzai was arrested on charges that he broke into a cash machine. See, if Australia would just be more generous with the jizya, this poor chap would never have been “radicalized” by al-Awlaki. “Man with terror links held after raid,” by Dylan Welch for The Age, September 29 (thanks to Block Ness): […]

Raymond Ibrahim: Running for Their Lives

Sep 28, 2011 10:39 am By Raymond Ibrahim

Historically, non-Muslims whose lands were seized by the jihad had three choices: conversion, dhimmitude, or death. Today, however, they have a fourth option largely unavailable to their forbears: quit their lands of origin””emigrate””the latest testimony to the nature of Islam. A recent report indicates that unprecedented numbers of Copts, Egypt’s indigenous Christian population, are emigrating […]

Sep 28, 2011 8:24 am By Marisol Seibold

Prosecutors had said Pete Seda was “well aware” the money was helping to fund Chechen jihadists, and the judge agreed. “Islamic charity leader sentenced to nearly 3 years,” by Jeff Barnard for the Associated Press, September 28 (thanks to all who sent this in): EUGENE, Ore. — The leader of the U.S. branch of a […]

Norway: Three Muslims charged in plot against Motoons paper; they had “acquired bomb components and tried to buy a gun”

Sep 28, 2011 8:02 am By Marisol Seibold

A society that accepts death as retribution for cartoons is morally, intellectually and ultimately materially impoverished. That is what is at stake in upholding freedom of speech against violent intimidation. An update on this story. “Norway charges three in terror plot over cartoons,” from BBC News, September 27: Prosecutors in Norway have charged three men […]

Iranian court upholds apostasy conviction and death sentence for convert from Islam to Christianity

Sep 28, 2011 7:48 am By Marisol Seibold

International pressure got the hikers freed; theirs was a fashionable cause in the mainstream press and among prominent left-wing figures. Would Hugo Chavez, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Cindy Sheehan, Noam Chomsky, and Sean Penn care to stand up for Yousef Nadarkhani’s human rights? An update on this story. “Christian Pastor Yousef Nadarkhani faces potential execution,” by […]

Pamela Geller on the Sean Hannity Show: Israel, the UN and the jihad against the Jews

Sep 28, 2011 6:54 am By Robert Spencer

Pamela Geller was on Hannity last Friday discussing the latest front of the Palestinian jihad against Israel: the United Nations. It is refreshing to see some common sense on the airwaves. Get the urgently needed book, the only one that offers free citizens practical and proven strategies for resisting the advance of Sharia in the […]

Turkey supports the jihad in the North Caucasus

Sep 28, 2011 6:44 am By Joseph Zaalishvili

Although Turkey is a NATO member, she has always supported the jihad in the North Caucasus. The Turks have never openly supported the jihad, but always tried to use the jihad and jihadis for their own interests. And many Muslims made their way from Turkey to the Mujahideen, joining the jihad in Chechnya and Dagestan. […]

The Islamization of the Australian passport

Sep 28, 2011 6:26 am By Nicolai Sennels

On the Australian passport, only Muslims are allowed to cover facial features. Only religious reasons are acceptable excuses for covering hair, ears and facial contours. And only Islam has such religious reasons. From the Australian Govermnent’s general photograph guidelines: The photograph must show you without any hat or other head covering. However, if you wear […]

Pakistan tied to “complex, calculated assault” on Americans on Afghan border in 2007

Sep 28, 2011 12:16 am By Marisol Seibold

“Even at the time it was seen as a turning point by officials managing day-to-day relations with Pakistan,” but attack was “glossed over” to maintain the relationship with Islamabad. A fine lot of good that did. “Pakistanis Tied to 2007 Border Attack on Americans,” by Carlotta Gall for the New York Times, September 27: KABUL, […]

Iran threatens to deploy warships near U.S. waters

Sep 28, 2011 12:15 am By Marisol Seibold

The threatened deployment would be an expensive spectacle to attempt to make a point. Whether they go through with it is another matter altogether: talk, after all, is cheap. “Iran says could deploy navy near U.S. coast: report,” by Hashem Kalantari for Reuters, September 27: TEHRAN (Reuters) – Iran raised the prospect on Tuesday of […]

Spain arrests 5 Muslims accused of financing jihadist attacks in connection with al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb

Sep 28, 2011 12:09 am By Marisol Seibold

In August, France’s top counter-terror judge opined: “It’s been shown that AQIM is only able to strike in its own zone, by wanting to kill tourists “” and we have seen nothing emerge as a significant foreign operation in Europe that was really organized by AQIM.” But U.S. General Carter Ham and other European authorities […]

Pakistan: Schoolgirl accused of blasphemy over spelling mistake denounced in Friday sermons as part of “conspiracy” against Islam

Sep 28, 2011 12:03 am By Marisol Seibold

An update on this story. This report explains and translates the exact misspelling, and also sets her age as several years younger. Whatever her age, the uproar this supposed offense has caused among grown adults is beyond absurd. “Pakistan: ten year old girl accused of blasphemy and sentenced for a spelling mistake,” by Jibran Khan […]

Amnesty International accuses Thai jihadists of war crimes

Sep 28, 2011 12:01 am By Marisol Seibold

Beyond the imposition of Islamic law, which is the fundamental aim of jihad in all of its forms, the next strikingly common trait among jihadist groups is the utter lack of concern for civilian casualties. Fatwa after vague fatwa about “innocents” won’t stop them: it all depends on your definition of “innocent.” “Amnesty Accuses Thai […]

Herman Cain’s multiple personalities

Sep 27, 2011 10:31 am By Robert Spencer

Presidential candidate Herman Cain won the Florida Straw Poll the other day, and my only question is, Which Herman Cain won it? Was it the Herman Cain who, as Pamela Geller reported yesterday, promised that he would “aggressively pursue a criminal investigation of CAIR and all Muslim Brotherhood groups named as co-conspirators in the largest […]
