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

Online jihadis call for jihad murders of cartoonists in US, Australia

Apr 30, 2015 7:47 pm By Robert Spencer

Foreign Policy follows a generally dhimmi line, but the clueless Obama-era FBI reads it to gather its “intelligence,” so it is worth looking into occasionally. Here is a piece on ongoing attempts to intimidate the West into silence by calling for the murder of those who violate Islam’s blasphemy laws. It is precisely to show […]

Robert Spencer in PJM: Has Baghdad Bob Become Secretary of Defense?

Apr 30, 2015 7:11 pm By Robert Spencer

Over at PJ Media I explain how we’re getting nowhere with the Islamic State, but you wouldn’t know that by listening to this administration: Remember Baghdad Bob? During the 2003 American invasion of Iraq, Iraqi Information Minister Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf, or “Baghdad Bob,” kept us laughing by repeatedly declaring that the Iraqi Army was humiliating […]

AFDI challenges MTA ban on free speech

Apr 30, 2015 6:55 pm By Robert Spencer

Last Wednesday, angry at being ordered by a federal court to run our ad criticizing Hamas and Islamic antisemitism, the New York City MTA voted to ban all political ads. Pamela Geller was there; she has a full account here, and you can see her own impassioned and eloquent remarks in defense of the freedom […]

Senior female Islamic State recruiter is student from Seattle

Apr 30, 2015 9:34 am By Robert Spencer

She could still be in the country, and plotting to wage jihad here — or simply still recruiting for the Islamic State. In any case, from the description below, she doesn’t seem to have been suffering from notable poverty or deprivation or oppression. John Kerry, call your office! “Senior female Isis figure who helped recruit […]

Georgian jihadi: “All Muslims believe that they have to go to jihad”

Apr 30, 2015 9:25 am By Robert Spencer

And so he went to wage jihad in Syria. He didn’t think his obligation to go to jihad was fulfilled by taking the kids to school or going to the gym. This looks like a job for Hamas-linked CAIR: to disabuse young Ali of his misunderstanding of Islam! No doubt Ahmed Rehab and Ibrahim “Honest […]

Germany: Two Muslims arrested with weapons and bomb materials

Apr 30, 2015 9:10 am By Robert Spencer

Every day, more jihad, more murder plots. The police’s luck will not hold forever. The sheer volume of these plots will ultimately exhaust them, particularly since they refuse to deal with the ideology that inspires and motivates the plots. And that exhaustion is just what the Islamic State and other jihadists are counting upon. “Weapons, […]

UK Muslim in court over possession of Islamic State jihad terror material

Apr 30, 2015 8:03 am By Robert Spencer

“Other publications were called Missbraucht Kinder, which means “abused children”, and others entitled Mensuura Inshallah, The Book Of Jihad, This Is The Province Of Allah, A Message To The Mujahidin And The Muslim Ummah In The Month Of Ramadan, and Indeed Your Lord Is Ever Watchful.” These are Islamic State publications. “A Message To The […]

Al-Azhar Sheikh: “Islam cannot prevail and spread by means of weapons”

Apr 30, 2015 7:44 am By Robert Spencer

Al-Tayeb says here that “what the Islamist armed movements are doing is wrong.” However, rejoicing over his “moderation” may be premature: he has justified anti-Semitism on Qur’anic grounds; called for the Islamic State murderers of the Jordanian pilot to be crucified or have their hands and feet amputated on opposite sides (as per the penalty […]

Blast at explosives factory in Syria kills 25 Islamic State fighters

Apr 30, 2015 6:25 am By Robert Spencer

Virgin eligibility unclear. Meanwhile, the Islamic State made gains in southern Syria for the first time. But don’t be concerned: the Pentagon says they’re losing! “Blast at explosives factory in Syria kills 25 IS fighters, says monitor,” Middle East Eye, April 30, 2015: Twenty-five fighters from the Islamic State group were killed when a powerful […]

Malaysia: Six charged in Islamic State-inspired jihad murder plot

Apr 30, 2015 6:15 am By Robert Spencer

How could modern, moderate Muslims from modern, moderate Malaysia get mixed in something so backward and extremist as a jihad mass murder plot? How did they come to misunderstand Islam after being taught its true, moderate form in modern, moderate Malaysia? “Six men charged over terror plot in Malaysia,” Agence France-Presse, April 30 2015: Six […]

Top Charlie Hebdo cartoonist Luz says will no longer draw Muhammad

Apr 29, 2015 10:43 pm By Robert Spencer

Capitulation to violent intimidation is the order of the day. Kowtowing to thuggery is today’s act of “respect” for the “disadvantaged” and “marginalized.” Yet the more we kowtow to thuggery, the more a thugocracy is enabled. “Top Charlie Hebdo cartoonist Luz says will no longer draw Mohammed,” AFP, April 29, 2015 (thanks to Pamela Geller): […]

Cousin: Tamerlan Tsarnaev went to Russia looking for jihad

But ultimately, he found it in Boston. “Cousin: Tamerlan Tsarnaev Went to Russia Looking for Jihad,” by Hilary Sargent, Boston Globe, April 29, 2015: In January 2012, Tamerlan Tsarnaev arrived in Russia and began planning an act of terrorism, according to a cousin’s interview with FBI.

Once magnet for foreign mujahedeen, Bosnia now exports them

Apr 29, 2015 10:10 pm By Robert Spencer

Bill Clinton’s Balkan intervention of the 1990s will go down in history, if that history is written by free people, as one of the earliest of a series of disastrously ill-considered U.S. foreign policy initiatives that were born of a false, politically correct view of Islam, and ended up aiding the global jihad. “Once magnet […]

UK Muslim guilty of jihad plot to murder soldiers

How many more young men like Kazi Islam are in Britain today? What is being done — by anyone — to disabuse them of their religious ideas, which give rise to their plotting in this way? Where will these young men be in ten years? Where will Britain be? “Pictured: Teenage Islamic terrorist who pestered […]

Robert Spencer’s Blogging the Qur’an, Sura 4: ‘Women’

Continuing the revised Blogging the Qur’an series over at PJM: Beating your wife? Fine. Saying Jesus was crucified? Not so good. Welcome to Sura 4, “Women,” another important Medinan sura containing laws for the conduct of women and Islamic family life, and a great deal more. Allah starts by saying that he created men and […]

Reza Aslan hypes “Islamophobia”

Apr 29, 2015 4:59 pm By Cinnamon Stillwell

At an April 13 lecture at the University of California, Riverside, UCR creative writing professor and self-styled expert on Islam and the Middle East Reza Aslan employed biased sources, isolated statistics, and ad hominem attacks to blame critics of radical Islam for the alleged rise in “Islamophobia” in post-9/11 America. “Islamophobia: The Real Enemy” was […]

UK: School officials publicly humiliate students because parents refused permission for mosque visit

Apr 29, 2015 2:18 pm By Robert Spencer

The parents were mistaken in citing fears of terrorism in refusing permission to visit the mosque. Their children are unlikely to be attacked or killed there. Much more likely, however, is that students who go to the mosque will be indoctrinated with a dose of soothing nonsense designed to render them complacent about jihad, Sharia, […]

Muslim driver tries to run down cops at Minneapolis Airport

Apr 29, 2015 9:30 am By Robert Spencer

“Stanek said they believe the incident was isolated and does not appear to have any ties to homeland security.” How do they know that?
