Nigeria: Jihadists threaten country’s top spies by publishing their home addresses and names of family members on Internet

Aug 30, 2012 7:31 am By Robert Spencer

Is Nathan Lean now working for Boko Haram? Lean, the editor-in-chief of Aslan Media, is a thug who has sent me numerous veiled threats. For security reasons, I maintain several offices and mailboxes in different parts of the country, and don’t actually live near any of them or check the mail in them myself. Nathan […]

Iran’s Supremo: “Our motto is nuclear energy for all and nuclear weapons for none”

Aug 30, 2012 7:24 am By Robert Spencer

Contrary to the Reuters headline, Khamenei is not really ruling out making a nuclear bomb. In fact, he is doing just the opposite. He is asking that the nuclear powers, including (and especially) Israel, divest themselves of nuclear weapons. When they do not do so, he will declare that Iran is justified in developing nuclear […]

New York judge slams NYC MTA in AFDI free speech ruling

Aug 30, 2012 7:17 am By Robert Spencer

Pamela Geller has a full report over at Atlas Shrugs: …Last September, the MTA had refused to run our ad, “In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man. Support Israel. Defeat jihad,” because it said that the ad violated its policy against displaying “images or information that demean an […]

UK: Muslim sitcom faces investigation — it “insults Islam”

Aug 30, 2012 6:33 am By Robert Spencer

“Citizen Khan” is a lighthearted comedy that has enraged Muslims by humorously depicting situations that are all too true to life. According to the Daily Mail, “One scene that particularly provoked anger was where a heavily-made up girl, Mr Khan’s daughter, rushed to put on a hijab and pretended to be reading the Koran when […]

Aug 30, 2012 2:24 am By Robert Spencer

“Armed gangs of jihadists have begun to sow terror..” And Obama is backing them. “ASIA/SYRIA – Bomb at a funeral, a family beheaded: Christians and Druzes targeted in Damascus,” from Agenzia Fides, August 29 (thanks to Lachlan): Damascus (Agenzia Fides) – A terrorist attack hit innocent Christian faithful and innocent Druzes in the area of […]

Kenya: Muslims torch two churches, Christians sue government for not protecting them

Aug 29, 2012 2:54 pm By Robert Spencer

But remember: the real problem is “Islamophobia.” “One killed in Muslim cleric murder protest,” from Standard Digital, August 28: One person has been reported dead during a battle between police and youth protesting the killing of Muslim cleric Aboud Rogo outside Majengo mosque, Mombasa. Gunmen shot dead the radical Muslim cleric in Bamburi area in […]

Mali: 200,000 Christians flee country as Islamic supremacists impose Sharia

Aug 29, 2012 2:47 pm By Robert Spencer

Don’t they know Sharia is benign and completely compatible with Western values? “Islamic terror driving Christians out of Mali,” from CWN, August 29 (thanks to Twostellas): The Vatican newspaper has called attention to the flight of Christians escaping Islamic persecution in Mali. As many as 200,000 Christians from Mali have found their way to refugee […]

Hypocrisy: Hamas-linked CAIR opposes antisemitism resolution because it “stifles robust political debate on university campuses”

Aug 29, 2012 2:22 pm By Robert Spencer

I don’t support restrictions on the freedom of speech, but the hypocrisy of Hamas-linked CAIR’s stance here is striking. The Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), which does all it can to shut down robust political debate when it is engaged in by counter-jihadists, has at last come out in favor of the freedom of […]

Jihadist in Afghan army uniform murders three NATO troops

Aug 29, 2012 1:40 pm By Robert Spencer

They must not have avoided “arrogance” or respected Islam enough. And so the fool’s errand in Afghanistan continues. How long are the American people going to accept our troops serving as a shooting gallery for Afghan jihadis who are our putative allies? Barack Obama and General John Allen ought to be placed on trial for […]

Raymond Ibrahim: The American Conservative Union Embraces an Islamist

Aug 29, 2012 8:27 am By Raymond Ibrahim

Over at FrontPage Magazine, I discuss a disturbing event: The conservative movement appears to be at a crossroads in its approach to the threat of Islamic supremacism””not only abroad but at home. Does the emergence of the Muslim Brotherhood as the dominant force of the “Arab Spring” bode ill for America? Or is the Brotherhood […]

Florida imam suspected of misunderstanding Islam, helping Muslims travel overseas for jihad

Aug 29, 2012 5:10 am By Robert Spencer

How did an imam come to misunderstand the supposedly peaceful religion that he had dedicated his life to studying and teaching, so as to get the amazing notion that it had something to do with the murder of unbelievers? Why does no one in the mainstream media think it anything other than “Islamophobic” even to […]

Pamela Geller: Romney’s vow to end funding of jihadist nations

Aug 29, 2012 5:01 am By Robert Spencer

In “Romney’s Vow to End Funding of Jihadist Nations” in WND today, Pamela Geller discusses a little-noted but crucially important promise from Mitt Romney: Speaking in Hobbs, N.M., last week, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney said, according to the El Paso Times, that “his administration would team with Mexico and Canada to make North America […]

Florida: Muslim pleads guilty of lying to FBI about jihad plot to kill U.S. military personnel

Aug 29, 2012 4:38 am By Robert Spencer

Note that while this report does mention “jihad” by name, it never actually gets around to specifying what kind of “religious instruction” was tied to Jimenez’s terror training. If Jimenez had been a “Christian extremist” plotting a similar attack (assuming that such a plotter can be found outside of the movies), the media reports would […]

Robert Spencer in the Los Angeles Times: Islam’s critics won’t be silenced

Aug 28, 2012 2:53 pm By Robert Spencer

The Los Angeles Times has just posted my response to Nathan Lean’s nasty hit piece that ran the other day. You can find my fuller response here. And one last question: Osama bin Laden praised Noam Chomsky. Does that make Noam Chomsky responsible for Osama’s bloody jihad, including the murders of 3,000 Americans on September […]

Saudi Arabia: Calls for monitoring of mosques after mosque found manufacturing explosives

Aug 28, 2012 6:56 am By Robert Spencer

Mosques can be monitored in Saudi Arabia, but there cannot be any monitoring of mosques in the U.S. Oh, no. That would be “Islamophobic.” Maybe the Obama Administration could bring in some Saudi mosque inspectors to assure them that everything is on the up-and-up in mosques stateside. “Misuse of mosque for manufacturing explosives condemned,” from […]

Turkey slams France for hate speech for including Armenian Genocide in textbooks

Aug 28, 2012 6:35 am By Robert Spencer

Pamela Geller says it: “Truth is the new hate speech.” This is the same thing that happens on a daily basis to counter-jihadists who dare to point out how Islamic jihadists use the texts and teachings of Islam to justify violence, hatred and supremacism: they are smeared with the charge of promoting “hate,” when in […]

Bangladesh: Islamic supremacist party calls for jihad, quoting Qur’an and Hadith

Aug 28, 2012 3:39 am By Robert Spencer

But don’t be concerned. “Religious experts” assure us that their use of the Qur’an and Hadith constitute a misunderstanding of jihad. Why there are so many such Misunderstanders of Islam is, as always, left unexplained. “In sign of desperation, Islamist party calls for armed struggle,” by Shahriar Sharif for Khabar South Asia, August 28 (thanks […]
