Jihad Watch

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

New Robert Spencer book, Arab Winter Comes to America, out today

Apr 14, 2014 10:06 am By Robert Spencer

RobertSpencer_Arab WinterA New Terror War At Home

Overlooked by our media, purposely obscured by our own government, and unnoticed by the vast majority of Americans, the turmoil of the Islamic world’s “Arab Spring” has become an “Arab Winter,” bringing new threats of terror to America.

New York Times bestselling author Robert Spencer, an expert on Islam and terrorism, reveals why America is shockingly unequipped to face this threat.

In Arab Winter Comes to America: The Truth About the War We’re In, you’ll learn:

  • Why the Obama administration has opted to appease rather than confront Islamic extremists in the United States
  • The continued folly of our immigration laws, which could let terrorists slip in unnoticed
  • Stories buried by the media and the Justice Department: how an Islamic terrorist plotted to blow up Wichita’s airport and other nearly unreported plots
  • How a secret document seized from the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States — a group the Obama administration has zealously befriended — reveals the organization’s radical Islamic goals (including the imposition of sharia law in America)
  • How a Seattle nightclub was set on fire on New Year’s Eve — in what may be the first manifestation of violent sharia morals enforcement in the United States
  • How the Obama administration scrubbed vital, accurate information about Islamic jihad from its counterterrorism training materials — to appease Muslim pressure groups
  • How Muslim “civil rights organizations” are pressuring potential witnesses to terror crimes not to cooperate with the authorities

The “Arab Spring” uncorked a jihadist genie in North Africa and the Middle East. It is about to wreak its mayhem here, with renewed terrorism. Americans need to inform themselves of the threat — and ensure that their elected government in Washington takes action. Robert Spencer’s Arab Winter Comes to America sounds the alarm and shows what needs to be done. It is essential reading.

    CAIR is a supremacist, mind-control and information-control fascist party. They disagree with everything on the following list:

    Freedom of expression and freedom of information contribute to the quality of government in various ways:
    1.They help ensure that competent and honest people administer the state. In a democracy, free debate about and between political parties exposes their strengths and weaknesses. This enables voters to form an opinion about who is best qualified to run the country and to vote accordingly. Media scrutiny of the government and the opposition helps expose corruption or other improprieties and prevents a culture of dishonesty
    2.They promote good governance by enabling citizens to raise their concerns with the authorities. If people can speak their minds without fear, and the media are allowed to report what is being said, the government can become aware of any concerns and address them.
    3.They ensure that new policies and legislation are carefully considered. Through public debate, members of the public with helpful opinions on a subject can present the government with a ‘marketplace of ideas’ from which to choose. Free debate about new legislation also helps ensure that the eventual law has the support of the population, making it more likely to be respected.
    4.They promote the implementation of other human rights. They help improve government policy in all areas, including human rights. They also enable journalists and activists to highlight human rights issues and abuses and persuade the government to take action.

    CAIR’s main purpose is to shut down freedom of information about real Islam.

    I’m heartened that Spencer’s subtitle includes the trenchant phrase — “the War We’re In — for it’s a war that one side doesn’t know it’s in. This may be the first time in history that one side didn’t know for years that it’s in a war.

    One reason for this is that the blind side being blindsided has a rather narrow definition of what the “next war” would look like: much like traditional conventional wars have always looked like, right? And it would have to be conducted by troops wearing uniforms, deployed in battlefields, right? Etc.

    Meanwhile, the actual warriors — an entire People, globally diverse, mostly resembling civilians (with the added spice of looking ethnic in various diverse ways), using unconventional means of a two-track system of 1) terror, social unrest and crime, in parallel conjunction with 2) stealth deception, propaganda and immigration (where the connection between 1 and 2 are kept hidden) — are literally, but unconventionally, waging war against us.

    And for this war to be effective, it has to metastasize exponentially, on both fronts 1 and 2. And for that to work, that hidden connection between 1 and 2 needs to be continually hidden. So far, the West continues in its sincerely deluded manner (through its PC MC paradigm) to enable the disconnect between 1 and 2 — thus enabling the war against it. Put more starkly: The West is in its sincerely deluded manner waging war against itself by enabling its enemy. This would be a new and perhaps historically unprecedented species of civil war. A grotesque metamorphosis of it.

      I helped a friend write an abstract on the question about whether conventional war still posed a threat to the world, and so I talked about the greater threat, the stealth war, the unconventional war…Islam. It was rejected with a criticism of being “political”.
      Incroyable, non?
      Okay, quite predictable.

    Well the SPLC is correct in calling Jihad Watch than hate site. The FBI will be ask to relink SPLC back on it wed site and the FBI will be ask to not meet with far rightwing groups who forced the FBI to remove it link to SPLC. The SPLC is right about that KKK leader who murder 3 people in Kanas City.

Hey Muslim “defenderofIslam” – how you doing? The KKK thing in Kansas is a terrible tragedy perpetrated by an idiot. However, Muslims and their constant Jihads worldwide mass-murdering hundreds and thousands at a time is the real menace.

      Well, *this* is grimly hilarious, since “Brian Hoff’s” vicious antisemtic coreligionists are the only ones besides the Klan (or perhaps neo-Nazis) would launch such an attack against people they believed to be Jews.

      But what does “DefenderofIslam” care? If he believes he can score points for Islam by throwing his fellow homicidal Jew-haters under the bus, he has no compunction against doing so.

    I’ve already got it. Even for Jihadwatch regulars, it’s worth having and reading. We’re all pretty up to date on the latest atrocities, thanks to this site, but chapters like “Do the Jihadis Have a Case?” and “Free Society or Caliphate?” are great for helping us get our facts straight about the why’s and wherefore’s of the conflict. (I’ve decided it’s worth my time to get more of the who, what and where loaded into my head — I don’t have ambitions of being able to rattle off umpteen verse citations the way Robert Spencer does, but I think it’s worth having *some* ammunition stored in memory. This book has quite a few names and nuggets that will be going into my flashcard collection.)

    “Antisemite Max Blumenthal Incites Murder of Three in Kansas”

    • voegelinian says

      Apr 17, 2014 at 4:41 pm

      Sidney Blumenthal recently hosted a launch party for his son Max’s latest book, which makes extensive comparisons of Israel to Nazi Germany.

      Max Blumenthal responded to the murder spree carried out by one of his admirers by attacking Israel, discussing on the hate site Mondoweiss the similarities between Zionism and Frazier Glenn Cross’s white supremacism.

      Let’s try to unravel this schizophrenic mess: A self-hating Leftist Jew promotes murderous hatred of Israel; a supposed “right wing” extremist murders Jews in the name of murderous hatred of Israel; the aforementioned self-hating Jew uses this mass murder to link the putatively “right wing” extremism of the killer with the Israel he murdered Jews over… This isn’t just strange bedfellows; it’s lunatics having a grotesquely tragicomic orgy.

        And yet, when Max Blumenthal’s grandfather (and Sidney’s father) Hymen Blumenthal died in 2003, the obituary noted that:

        ” In lieu of flowers, contributions to the Israel Emergency Campaign-JUF…”

        I wonder if Hymen is revolving in his grave over the fact that his son and grandson are using their not inconsiderable sociopolitical influence to actively demonize Israel as “Nazi”.

    President Obama has effectively allowed Islamic expansion into the United States. America has always welcomed other cultures but when the Islamic objective is to have their religion prevail over all other religions it becomes a serious problem. I would like for your readers to link to the following article. It clearly reveals that the Qur’an is the source of discontent in many countries because it sanctions a party of men to act in the name of Allah. Suras from the Qur’an conclusively prove that a party of men identified as We, Our and Us kill people who do not worship Allah or accept the Islamic religion.

      If the link to the OPEDNEWS article does not work, place an Internet search on the title: The Qur’an is the Source of Discontent in Many Countries. The information is accurate as the suras are unaltered and it becomes evident that a religious leader or commander speaks for Allah as he motivates his army to kill unbelievers.

    Sharia law is nothing more than Islam applied.

    The laws of the various schools of Sharia have been created by Muslims applying what they themselves find contained within what they consider to be Islam’s canonical texts (the Quran, hadith and sira).

    We ex-Muslims living with Islam’s formal and informal death penalty for apostasy know that mythical Muhammad was an evil madman and Islam a complete fraud.

    The nature and doctrines of Islam always gravitate to Muslims wanting and demanding more and more Islam. And what does more Islam mean? It means Sharia. And what is Sharia? Simply the product of devout and learned Islamic scholars earnestly pouring over Islam’s canonical texts.

    Islam’s canonical texts state that Islam is a perfect religion (Qur’an, 5:3), and that Muhammad’s behaviour is an “excellent pattern of conduct” for Muslims to emulate (Qur’an, 33:21). In light of all this it is clear that Islam must be wholly abandoned. All other schemes are pure delusion.

    And speaking as an ex-Muslim, what I find most odd about Islam’s non-Muslim supporters is that they seem incapable of making the leap of logic to grasp the fact that when non-Muslims support and/or defend Islam, they are supporting and/or defending the following:

    * Slavery:

    Qur’an 16:71
    And Allah hath favored some of you above others in provision. Now those who are more favored will by no means hand over their provision to those (slaves) whom their right hands possess, so that they may be equal with them in respect thereof. Is it then the grace of Allah that they deny?

    * Sex Slavery:

    Hadith, Sahih Bukhari Vol.7, Bk.62, No.137:

    Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri: We got female captives in the war booty and we used to do coitus interruptus with them. So we asked Allah’s Apostle about it and he said, “Do you really do that?” repeating the question thrice, “There is no soul that is destined to exist but will come into existence, till the Day of Resurrection.”

    * The death for penalty for the apostates of Islam:

    In Islam, the rejection in part (of any of the pillars, or individual principles of Islam), or discarding the faith as a whole, amounts to apostasy. It is not a quick or easy affair for an apostate or heterodox believer of Islam, as the punishment for apostasy in the Islamic faith is death. Though it may be argued that this is not clear through the Qur’an alone, scholars have found justification for the penalty from within its pages, and there are also numerous Sahih (authentic) hadiths confirming this punishment as attested by Prophet Muhammad. In Sahih Bukhari, Vol. 9, Book 84, No. 57 we see it as “Allah’s Apostle said, ‘Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him’”, and it was also one of only three reasons given by him where killing a Muslim is permitted.

    http://wikiislam.net/wiki/Islam_and_Apostasy

    * Child molestation:

    Qur’an, 065.004
    And (as for) those of your women who have despaired of menstruation, if you have a doubt, their prescribed time shall be three months, and of those too who have not had their courses; and (as for) the pregnant women, their prescribed time is that they lay down their burden; and whoever is careful of (his duty to) Allah He will make easy for him his affair.

    Sahih Bukhari, Vol.7, Bk.62, No.88:

    Narrated Ursa:
    The prophet wrote the [marriage contract] with Aisha while she was six years old and consummated his marriage with her while she was nine years old and she remained with him for nine years (i.e.’ til his death).

    http://wikiislam.net/wiki/Islam_and_Pedophilia

    * 100 Lashes for unmarried adulterers: Qur’an 24:2

    * Stoning for married adulterers:

    Sahih Bukhari, Vol.8, Bk.82, Number 826:

    Narrated Abu Huraira and Zaid bin Khalid:
    Two men had a dispute in the presence of Allah’s Apostle. One of them said, “Judge us according to Allah’s Laws.” The other who was more wise said, “Yes, Allah’s Apostle, judge us according to Allah’s Laws and allow me to speak (first)” The Prophet said to him, ‘Speak ” He said, “My son was a laborer for this man, and he committed illegal sexual intercourse with his wife, and the people told me that my son should be stoned to death, but I have given one-hundred sheep and a slave girl as a ransom (expiation) for my son’s sin. Then I asked the religious learned people (about It), and they told me that my son should he flogged one-hundred stripes and should be exiled for one year, and only the wife of this man should be stoned to death ” Allah’s Apostle said, “By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, I will judge you according to Allah’s Laws: O man, as for your sheep and slave girl, they are to be returned to you.” Then the Prophet had the man’s son flogged one hundred stripes and exiled for one year, and ordered Unais Al-Aslami to go to the wife of the other man, and if she confessed, stone her to death. She confessed and was stoned to death.

    Islam is no “religion of peace.” Islam is primarily a religion of “injustice, intolerance, hatred, and violence.” The fact is, if we non-Muslims were to say about Muslims what the Qur’an says about us, we would be arrested for hate speech. The Qur’an largely preaches discrimination, death, and imposition of its dogma on everyone. Certainly some Muslims will be offended by such statements, but frankly, so what? Judaism and Christianity, the world’s two other major monotheistic religions, have had to face the harshest of scrutiny and criticism for several hundred years which continues to this day. Islam must not be granted any special privileges or be exempt from such treatment – the implications are of tremendous importance.

    Here is a recent statement from a group of Bangladeshi apostates living in the UK explaining the reasons why they have abandoned Islam:

    “One who claims to be a messenger of God is expected to live a saintly life. He must not be given to lust, he must not be a sexual pervert, and he must not be a rapist, a highway robber, a war criminal, a mass murderer or an assassin. One who claims to be a messenger of God must have a superior character. He must stand above the vices of the people of his time. Yet Muhammad’s life is that of a gangster godfather. He raided merchant caravans, looted innocent people, massacred entire male populations and enslaved the women and children. He raped the women captured in war after killing their husbands and told his followers that it is okay to have sex with their captives (Qur’an 33:50). He assassinated those who criticized him and executed them when he came to power and became de facto despot of Arabia. Muhammad was bereft of human compassion. He was an obsessed man with his dreams of grandiosity and could not forgive those who stood in his way…

    The statement continues,

    Muhammad was a narcissist, like Hitler, Saddam or Stalin. He was astute and knew how to manipulate people, but his emotional intelligence was less evolved than that of a 6-year-old child. He simply could not feel the pain of others. He brutally massacred thousands of innocent people and pillaged their wealth. His ambitions were big and as a narcissist he honestly believed he is entitled to do as he pleased and commit all sorts of crimes and his evil deeds are justified.”

      Unfortunately for your claim, most of us here aren’t getting our views only from Robert Spencer — though his arguments are always backed up with piles upon piles of evidence. But most of us here have seen much more even than that. We’ve read the Qur’an. We’ve read a fair chunk of the Sira and the Haddith. We’ve read fatwas and Islamic websites. We know that mainstream, run-of-the-mill Islam teaches horrendous violence. If you want to disprove the entire mountain of evidence, you need an actual argument and some counterevidence, which you have not provided.

      No religion teaches violence?! Islam teaches violence, hate, and every vile, pernicious perversion known to man. Islam demands that its followers murder, torture, rape, maim, subjugate, imprison, and decapitate non-muslims. There is nothing biased about the truth but muslims hate it when infidels tell the truth about their filthy religion. Deep down inside their tortured souls, muslims are ashamed of the filth, malevolence, and perversions they embrace. Otherwise they wouldn’t care who knew the truth about islam that they so desperately try to obfuscate. Why don’t muslims in the West defend their beloved religion and its depraved doctrine? Why do they lie about what they really believe and portray themselves as victims of islamophobia and bigotry? There is no bias here but sadly, most people prefer to deny the truth when it is too hideous to contemplate. The horrible realities of islam are simply too frightening for the average person to grasp; denial is much easier and after all, islam is a ‘religion’ so it couldn’t be evil, could it?

      Yes. For example, Mohammed “exploited the cover of religion” to achieve his “vested interest” of raping little girls.
      In fact he invented a whole new religion to achieve his vested interests that ranged from rape and lust, to pillage and power.

      Hello Mr. peer Shah,

      You have not read the Qur’an very closely. Read the article on OPEDNEWS titled, “The Qur’an is the Source of Discontent in Many Countries”. If the link below does not take you to the article, place an Internet search on “Nicholas Ginex” and the article link will appear.

      The Qur’an itself reveals that it is a party of men identified as “We, Our and Us” that implement the admonitions and punishments to those who do not believe in Islam or Allah. The Qur’an clearly advocates bigotry, hate, violence and the killing of unbelievers of Islam.

      ………………………………….

      Firstly, as many posters have already pointed out, this is completely false. The Qur’an, the Hadith, and the terrible example of the “Prophet”, regarded as the perfect man by Muslims, are all replete with violence.

      Islam, in fact, teaches little else.

      And is he trying to claim that there was no violence in the religion of Moloch or of the Aztecs? Not every religion preaches peace.

      Moreover, even if this were not the case, how does this Mohammedan explain the hideous violence of his coreligionists? There have been 22,793 Jihad terror attacks, most with multiple fatalities, just since 9/11.

      Were this just a matter of all faiths just “exploiting the cover of their religion”, then why don’t we find this kind of religion-justified sanction of violence from the followers of other faiths?

      The fact is that Jihad terror is very much the product of the teachings of Islam. It’s just that Peer Zulqarnain Shah hopes we don’t understand that.

    005.032 On that account: We ordained for the Children of Israel that if any one slew a person – unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land – it would be as if he slew the whole people: and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people. Then although there came to them Our messengers with clear signs, yet, even after that, many of them continued to commit excesses in the land.
    005.033 The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger, and strive with might and main for mischief through the land is: execution, or crucifixion, or the cutting off of hands and feet from opposite sides, or exile from the land: that is their disgrace in this world, and a heavy punishment is theirs in the Hereafter;

      Qur’an 5:32 is a favorite of Taqiyya artists, who believe they can present it as a call for the sanctity of life—but it is not. Notice that this wasn’t presented to Muslims, but to *Jews* along.

      This verse is chiding the Jews, not calling for peace.

      The next verse, Qur’an 5:33 confirms it, where Muhammed threatens to mutilate, crucify, and murder his enemies.

      More:

      “Wage war’ mentioned in the above verses means, oppose and contradict, and it includes disbelief, blocking roads and spreading fear in the fairways. Mischief in the land refers to various types of evil.”
      …………………………….

      “Disbelief”—Taqiyya artists are seldom so honest—this one must be quite inexperienced.

      This means that if you are a non-Muslim, that pious “believers” will wage violent Jihad against you—which, indeed, we see every day.

    Religions does not teach Violence; it is politics which FARC is doing in Colombia, LTT were in Jafna, Sri Lanka, Talibal in Afghanistan, TTP in Pakistan, Hizbola in Lebnon Al Qaeda at global level. They all are politically motivated for achieving their local and regional vested interests. If Islam teaches Violence than why Muslim Terrorist organization kills Muslims in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq and Syria???????/

      PZS: if you are unsure and need answers, please consult your holy books. If you still need answers, come back here. In the meantime, please desist from your disingenuous (one presumes) nonsense.
      PS A clue: “fitna”.

      If you insist that “religions don’t teach violence” then islam is not a religion. And, conversely, if you believe Islam is a religion then clearly some religions do teach violence.
      Clearly, what a mohamedan understands by violence differs very much from the understanding of a civilized person.

      “If Islam teaches Violence than why Muslim Terrorist organization kills Muslims in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq and Syria???????/”

      Let me guess:
      …because they ran out of Christians?
      …because these Moslems belong to a competing terrorist organization?
      …because they use seven question marks at the end of a sentence?

      Please let me know if I have left out other reasons.

        Violently subjugating a people, including massacres where necessary, in order to restore the order of God’s laws amid a situation of fitna and fasad is not “violence” — it is “justice”. Problem solved!

          To be a muhammedan is to be free from fetters of definition.

      Good grief—Muslims have been butchering other Muslims for almost 1400 years now.

      There is even an Islamic doctrine for it—the “insufficiently Islamic” or “heretics” are declared “Takfir”, which renders them ipso facto Infidels, and thus fair game for slaughter.

      We see this with Sunnis mass-murdering Shia, and vice versa—as well as orthodox Muslims killing fringe sect Muslims like the Ahmadi and Alawites.

      We also see this when “moderate” or “apostate” Muslims are targeted.

      This hideous phenomenon does not *refute* Islamic violence—rather, it confirms it.

      When pious Muslims run out of Infidels to kill, they simply fall on each other. *Ugh*.

    I’ve bought my last Robert Spencer book.

    Don’t get me wrong, I read Jihad Watch with my morning paper.

    But when I discovered that the “Not Peace But a Sword” had no index I was real disappointed. (And that’s an understatement.)

    A book without an index is almost half a book. I can’t wrap my head around why someone would write a “resource” and not include an index. I don’t get it.

    Just for the heck of it I got down my “The Qur’anic Concept of War” by Malik. It’s only about a hundred and fifty pages but it’s got an index.

    One of my “Bibles” is Because They Hate by Brigitte Gabriel. But it forever irks me that the thing doesn’t have an index.

    I wasn’t going to bring this up but I usually suggest people read an article I found in my Summarized Bukhari on “Jihad”. As an example of “good vs. evil”. Aside from that I point out that the book as a whole is poorly organized and lacks an index to show just how incompetent the publishers were and, most important, to illustrate what a rotten resource it is.

    I’m constantly referring to indexes in books on my shelf. I don’t think I’d be able to find a book on my shelf that doesn’t have at least a few names or items hi-lited in its index.

    Yep; the first book I grabbed, Indoctrination U.; hi-lited. The War Against Boys; (An ass-kicker) hi-lited. A Concise History of the Crusades; hi-lited.

    No index…..I don’t get it.

      Indexes are up to the publisher. Not every publisher wants to pay for one. The new book has an index. Email me with an address and I’ll send you a free and autographed copy if you promise to stop constantly complaining about things that are beyond my control as if they were within my control.

      Cordially

    Obama tells NASA to reach out to muslims (June 2010)

    Last month, former astronaut and current NASA Administrator Charles Bolden toured the Middle East in commemoration of Obama’s speech. He sat down for a televised interview with the Al Jazeera Network. When asked why he was visiting the Islamic world, this was his reply:

    When I became the NASA administrator—or before I became the NASA administrator—[Obama] charged me with three things. One was he wanted me to help re-inspire children to want to get into science and math, he wanted me to expand our international relationships, and third, and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science and math and engineering.
