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

Australia: Muslims outraged at PM’s “aggressive rhetoric against Muslims”

Feb 26, 2015 8:10 pm By Robert Spencer

What was his “aggressive rhetoric against Muslims”? What were his “incredibly reckless” remarks? He said: “I’ve often heard Western leaders describe Islam as a religion of peace…I wish more Muslim leaders would say that more often and mean it.” And: “The Islamist death-cult has declared war on the world.” In response, instead of declaring their […]

Bangladesh: Atheist writer hacked to death after threats from Muslims

Feb 26, 2015 6:18 pm By Robert Spencer

Islamic jihadists act with increasing impunity against those they consider to have “insulted Islam,” and the free West in response does not stand up for the freedom of speech, but increasingly practices self-censorship to conform to Sharia blasphemy laws. Avijit Roy, eternal memory. “Writer Avijit Roy hacked to death,” Dhaka Tribune, February 26, 2015: Blogger […]

Islamic State preparing to declare Islamic emirate in Lebanon

Feb 26, 2015 5:56 pm By Robert Spencer

The Islamic State is going to keep advancing until it is stopped, while our learned, tenured analysts assure us that it is a purely “nationalist” movement. “ISIS preparing to declare Islamic emirate in Lebanon: sources,” by Antoine Ghattas Saab, The Daily Star, February 23, 2015 (thanks to Jerk Chicken): ISIS is preparing military plans to […]

UK: Islamic jihadist took sightseeing photos of alleged targets, including shopping center

Feb 26, 2015 5:25 pm By Robert Spencer

“Prosecutors called it one of the most serious terror plots since the 9/11 attacks on New York and Washington. As well as blowing up the Arndale Centre, the terror group planned to set off bombs in the New York subway and at the offices of a Copenhagen newspaper that had published cartoons of the Prophet […]

Forbes: Five reasons the fight against the Islamic State isn’t about Islam

Feb 26, 2015 4:43 pm By Robert Spencer

As I said yesterday, the Western intelligentsia is very, very anxious that you have a positive view of Islam. Thus we see a steady stream of articles in the mainstream media assuring you that the Qur’an is benign, the U.S. Constitution is Sharia-compliant, and the Islamic State is not Islamic. This goes for nominally “conservative” […]

The Best Revenge

Feb 26, 2015 12:50 pm By Michael Devolin

“To refrain from imitation is the best revenge.” –Marcus Aurelius I would never attempt to explain the fact that all religions are not equal, precisely because there have been so many—too many—before me explain this reality already, but to a predominantly insouciant populace. Those who believe that all religions are equal and, consequently, that all […]

Islamic State jihadis destroy 3,000-year-old artworks in Mosul museum

Feb 26, 2015 12:41 pm By Robert Spencer

Besides removing supposed temptations to idolatry, Islamic jihadists want to ruin the artifacts of non-Muslim civilizations because doing so testifies to the truth of Islam, as the Qur’an suggests that ruins are a sign of Allah’s punishment of those who rejected his truth: Many were the Ways of Life that have passed away before you: […]

UK: Muslim found with bomb-making equipment in his apartment

Feb 26, 2015 12:15 pm By Robert Spencer

He was just carrying out “wee tests,” you greasy Islamophobe. And “he said a quantity of fertiliser was used for plants on the balcony, although there were none there when police searched the premises.” Those Islamophobic police officers! Al-Khori, “who trained in Iraq as a doctor,” was doubtless driven to this by poverty, discrimination, and […]

Pakistani Interior Minister says “Islamophobia” biggest hurdle in fighting against terrorism

Feb 26, 2015 9:28 am By Robert Spencer

“He said he pointed out in the conference that the west must do more to address the issue of targeting Muslims and their religious beliefs.” In other words, if Western authorities pretend that Islamic jihad terrorists have nothing to do with Islam, and don’t look for them in Muslim communities, all will be well. Chaudhry […]

Malta: “Death to Christians,” “Allah” painted on walls

Feb 26, 2015 8:37 am By Robert Spencer

Just imagine what Malta, and Europe, will be like in ten years, and twenty-five. “Updated – ‘Death to Christians’ warning in Qrendi,” Times of Malta, February 26, 2015 (thanks to Connor): The police are investigating threats against ‘Christians’ made in scribbling on walls on Qrendi last night. The graffiti in black was found on the […]

“Jihadi John” is UK university graduate who flew to Syria while on watch list

Feb 26, 2015 8:07 am By Robert Spencer

Emwazi is both a university grad and a name on the UK’s terror watch list, thus providing a commentary on both the poverty-causes-terrorism dogma and the efficacy of Supine Britain’s counter-terror apparatus. “Jihadi John unmasked: Former Westminster University student was arrested FIVE years ago and put on a terror watch list – but he flew […]

Stanford ‘Charlie Hebdo’ Panel: Je Suis Ferguson?

Stanford ‘Charlie Hebdo’ Panel: Je Suis Ferguson? by Cinnamon Stillwell and Rima Greene What does the Islamic terrorist attack on the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo in January have to do with the 2014 police shootings of African-American men in Ferguson, Missouri and Long Island, New York; San Francisco’s troubled Bayview-Hunters Point neighborhood; and the […]

UK: Drunk driver avoids jail after court hears he has rediscovered Islam

Feb 25, 2015 4:17 pm By Robert Spencer

Would Asif Masood have received this leniency if he had announced that he had converted to Christianity? Of course not. But probably what clinched the deal for him was that he claimed that he had been subjected to “harassment and threats.” In today’s Abject Britannia, that is the gold standard. Asif Masood has suffered from […]

French government unveils plans for “dialogue” with Muslims to promote an Islam “faithful to the values of the Republic”

Feb 25, 2015 3:53 pm By Robert Spencer

“The plan would promote an Islam ‘faithful to the values of the Republic,’ Cazeneuve said.” Good luck with that, Cazeneuve. There has never been such an Islam. Will you and Dalil Boubakeur be able to invent it? Let’s just say you will face stiff opposition. “French Govt Unveils a Plan to Promote Dialogue With Muslims,” […]

Austria passes law on Islam, banning foreign funding and requiring imams to speak German

Feb 25, 2015 3:34 pm By Robert Spencer

“We want a future in which increasing numbers of imams have grown up in Austria speaking German, and can in that way serve as positive examples for young Muslims.” Are they unable to recruit for jihad in German? This measure is largely cosmetic, but at least it is something, rather than nothing at all, which […]

FBI: NY jihadis “violated the true tenants of their faith”

Feb 25, 2015 2:55 pm By Robert Spencer

“The defendants violated the true tenants of their faith in pursuit of their radical, violent agenda,” said FBI Assistant Director-in-Charge Diego Rodriguez. They violated some tenants? So apparently they are landlords? Have they been charged with rape? Seriously, what difference does it make if an FBI agent doesn’t know tenants from tenets? He’s paid to […]

UK: 27% of Muslims have “some sympathy for the motives behind the Charlie Hebdo attacks in Paris”

Feb 25, 2015 2:12 pm By Robert Spencer

These polls are of only limited value, as people generally tell pollsters what they want to hear. In light of that, the fact that 27% of Muslims in Britain openly acknowledged sympathy for the Charlie Hebdo jihad attacks is remarkable — but not surprising in light of the fact that we saw huge numbers of […]

Brooklyn: Three Muslims charged with plotting to join Islamic State, shoot Obama

Feb 25, 2015 1:05 pm By Robert Spencer

“I am in USA now … But is it possible to commit ourselves as dedicated martyrs anyway while here? What I’m saying is, to shoot Obama and then get shot ourselves, will it do? That will strike fear in the hearts of infidels.” Where did they get the idea to “strike fear in the hearts […]

The Western intelligentsia is very, very anxious that you have a positive view of Islam.

Finland: “I am Charlie” cartoon exhibit closed after 15 minutes over security concerns

Feb 25, 2015 10:27 am By Robert Spencer

This was the third time the exhibit was closed. Organizers are persistent, however, and are searching for a different venue. Step back for a moment and remember: these are just cartoons. The world continues to bow to violent intimidation, which only ensures that it will get more violent intimidation. Show that you will not submit: […]
