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

Volgograd train station jihadist: “I have come here only to make Allah pleased with me…I am not inventing anything from the Koran, I am reading”

Dec 31, 2013 3:46 pm By Robert Spencer

We are constantly forced to say, on pain of charges of “Islamophobia,” that Islamic jihadists are misunderstanders of Islam, and that the true Islam teaches peace. Yet again and again we see Islamic jihadists invoking the Qur’an to justify their murders. The cognitive dissonance is absolute, albeit unnoticed by anyone in authority. “Parents of ‘Volgograd […]

Fox News publishes piece whitewashing jihad violence and proselytizing for Ahmadi Islam

Dec 31, 2013 3:37 pm By Robert Spencer

Qasim Rashid: War is deceit Fair and balanced. Can you imagine Fox, or any other news outlet, running a piece like this proselytizing for Christianity? Exhorting people to revere and follow Pope Francis? Media Matters would be in an uproar, it would be all over the networks, and Fox would remove the piece and apologize. […]

UK jihad murderer converted to Islam after watching sermons by American Muslim preacher

Dec 31, 2013 12:42 pm By Robert Spencer

This typically moronic Daily Mail article presents what Khalid Yasin says about killing gays and beating women as if it were his own eccentric — “hijacked,” no doubt — version of Islam. Yasin, the clueless Daily Mail tells us, “claims that the Koran gives men permission to “˜beat women lightly” and thinks all Muslims should […]

Israel, under pressure from Obama, releases “Palestinian” jihad murderers from prisons; “Palestinians” greet jihad killers as heroes

Dec 31, 2013 11:26 am By Robert Spencer

Israelis protest the release of the jihad murderers Here in microcosm is the “peace process”: the U.S. presses the Israelis to make self-defeating concessions as a gesture of good will to the “Palestinians,” who respond with an open bloodlust that they know will never be noticed in the mainstream press in the West, and will […]

Robert Spencer in PJ Lifestyle: The Hypocrisy of the Feminist Response to Islam’s Oppression of Women

Dec 31, 2013 11:03 am By Robert Spencer

In PJ Lifestyle I discuss British socialist-feminist Laurie Penny’s ridiculous claim that “Islamophobes could not care less about women of any creed or colour.” Concerned about the Islamic oppression of women? The divine sanction for the beating of women (Qur’an 4:34)? The commodification, the polygamy, the child marriage, the female genital mutilation, the honor killing? […]

Iraq: Ramadi mosques call for jihad as government dismantles anti-government protest site

Dec 31, 2013 9:22 am By Robert Spencer

As these mosques — contrary to the cynical and deceptive claims of Islamic spokesmen in the West — don’t mean by this call that Muslims get in their exercise or drop off the kids at school, watch for more bloodshed: this is a call for Sunnis to wage jihad warfare against the Shi’ite government. “Ramadi […]

Russian jihad leader: “Our enemy is not Russia only, but everyone who wages war against Islam and Muslims”

Dec 30, 2013 9:48 pm By Robert Spencer

Nigeria: Muslims murder 12 Christians in attacks on two Christian villages — 8 at wedding reception

Dec 30, 2013 2:19 pm By Robert Spencer

The Christian leaders who are silent about who does this killing and why, for fear of offending their Muslim “dialogue” partners in the West, have a great deal to answer for. “Extremists kill 12 in Nigerian Christian villages,” from the Associated Press, December 30 (thanks to Kenneth): MAIDUGURI, Nigeria “” Witnesses say suspected Islamic militants […]

Russia: Rush-hour blast murders 14 on trolley bus in Volgograd — 3rd deadly jihad attack in four days

Dec 30, 2013 2:07 pm By Robert Spencer

Islamic jihadists are murdering with impunity in Volgograd. Will the Russian authorities challenge the mosques to teach against the Islamic doctrines that lead to this? Or will it just go on and on as Russia descends into jihadist chaos and ultimately submits to Islam? “Rush-hour blast kills 14 on trolley bus in Volgograd, Russia; 3rd […]

Pakistan: Santa Claus arrested for blasphemy!

Dec 30, 2013 11:27 am By Robert Spencer

This parody report (and yes, it is a parody: no portly, white-bearded man in a red coat has been arrested for blasphemy in Pakistan) bitingly highlights the vicious and lethal absurdity of Pakistan’s blasphemy laws. “Santa Claus arrested for blasphemy in Sargodha,” by Kunwar Khuldune Shahid in Pakistan Today, December 28: Sargodha – Staff Report: […]

Indian Mujahideen plotted jihad attack in industrial city of Surat: “We wanted to ensure that no Muslim was killed…we knew that the casualty rate would be high”

Dec 30, 2013 11:02 am By Robert Spencer

Surat It is good that the local Muslim community gave them no encouragement, although if they argued the jihadis down on Qur’anic grounds and explained to them how they were misunderstanding Islam’s peaceful message, Yasin doesn’t mention it. It is also noteworthy that they tried to get them out of the city, in accord with […]

FBI investigates military-style attack on California power station

Dec 30, 2013 2:48 am By Robert Spencer

“Not amateurs taking potshots”¦ this was a dress rehearsal” — possibly for large-scale attacks on power stations. Although this was initially thought to be related to the Boston Marathon jihad bombing, no connection was established.

Interfaith outreach in Iran: Converts to Christianity arrested as they celebrated Christmas

Dec 29, 2013 7:29 pm By Robert Spencer

“Talk about extreme, militant Islamists and the atrocities that they have perpetrated globally might undercut the positive achievements that we Catholics have attained in our inter-religious dialogue with devout Muslims.” — Robert McManus, Roman Catholic Bishop of Worcester, Massachusetts, February 8, 2013 So these Iranian Christians have no friend, no protector, and no spokesman. “Iranian […]
