NJ Muslim pleads guilty to trying to raise “small army” of Islamic State fighters

Oct 29, 2015 11:43 pm By Robert Spencer

“His lawyer said if members of the group had failed to get to Syria or Iraq on their own, they had discussed an alternate plan of buying guns inside the US and targeting the White House and other landmarks for an attack. In the past year, the FBI has arrested 7 men in all from […]

Chicago Muslim teen pleads guilty to trying to join the Islamic State

Oct 29, 2015 5:57 pm By Robert Spencer

“After Khan’s arraignment in January, his mother, Zarine Khan, delivered a tearful but stern message accusing ISIS recruiters of ‘the brainwashing and recruiting of children through the use of social media and the Internet.’ ‘Leave our children alone!’ she cried.” How hearteningly moderate. Here, however, is a photograph of Zarine Khan with her husband Shafi, […]

UK Muslim teen who tried to join Islamic State echoed Muhammad’s words about martyrdom

Oct 29, 2015 5:18 pm By Robert Spencer

“He also posted an image on Facebook on August 31, last year, writing: ‘I wish I could fight in the cause of Allah and then be killed, and then fight, and then be killed, and then fight, and then be killed.’” In saying that, Mahmood was echoing words attributed to Muhammad, the prophet of Islam: […]

Kerry: Middle East “home of populations that are energetic, youthful, forward-looking. It is in them that we place our faith.”

Oct 29, 2015 4:53 pm By Robert Spencer

Kerry is right, actually. The Islamic State is energetic, youthful, and looking forward to expanding its caliphate and eventually controlling the entire world. But of course Kerry is not referring to them. Exactly to whom he is referring is unclear, since, as the brilliant Daniel Greenfield here points out: “74% of Middle Eastern Muslims support […]

Bernie Sanders denounces “Islamophobia,” Hamas-linked terror org CAIR thrilled

Oct 29, 2015 4:12 pm By Robert Spencer

A Muslim student, Remaz Abdelgader, said to Sanders: “Being an American is such a strong part of my identity, but I want to create a change in this society. I’m so tired of listening to this rhetoric saying I can’t be president one day, that I should not be in office. It makes me so […]

Islamic State on recruitment spree in Russia, “moderate” imams can’t counter the jihadis’ appeal

Oct 29, 2015 3:30 pm By Robert Spencer

“Most local imams in Dagestan shun radical views, but they have found it hard to counter the appeal of radical ideas promoted by the Islamic State. Some imams who spoke against radical Islam have been killed.” Why have they “found it hard to counter the appeal of radical ideas promoted by the Islamic State”? To […]

Islamic State schools ban math, music, philosophy, history, French and geography as incompatible with Islam

Oct 29, 2015 2:53 pm By Robert Spencer

They are following in the illustrious footsteps of the caliph Umar, who is supposed to have said when ordering the ancient, fabled library of Alexandria to be burned: “If the books agree with the Qur’an, they are superfluous. If they disagree with it, they are heretical.” “One former elementary teacher from A-Raqqa tells of a […]

Video: Raymond Ibrahim on Russia’s “Holy War” on the Islamic State

Oct 29, 2015 2:41 pm By Raymond Ibrahim

I was recently interviewed by Erick Stakelbeck on The Blaze TV regarding my article, “Russia Declares Holy War on Islamic State.”  Are Russian claims concerning persecuted Christians sincere or propaganda? What of Russia’s alliance with Iran? I respond to these concerns and more in the above 7-minute video.

UK: Muslim nuclear power plant worker caught studying bomb-making websites while at work

Oct 29, 2015 12:47 pm By Robert Spencer

No one would have considered trying to vet him and determine his attachment to the jihad doctrine before hiring him. That would have been “Islamophobic.” “Scots nuclear power plant worker caught studying BOMB-MAKING websites at work,” by David Taylor, Daily Record, October 27, 2015: A WORKER at a Scots nuclear power plant has been allegedly […]

Coptic blasphemy case sheds light on Muslim views of Islamic State

Oct 29, 2015 8:52 am By Raymond Ibrahim

On October 22, a court postponed to December 3 the case concerning four Coptic Christian students accused of blasphemy. They did this after the Copts’ lawyer, Maher Naguib, convinced the court to bring the exhibits of the case, including the video made by the Copts which is responsible for the blasphemy charge. The four Coptic students were arrested […]

Saudi-funded academic John Esposito laments influence of Jihad Watch

Oct 28, 2015 7:49 pm By Robert Spencer

“The amount of money that the Center for American Progress and also CAIR [the Council on American Islamic Relations] show in their studies of philanthropic support for Islamophobic authors and websites was found to be 42.6 million dollars.” This is a wildly inflated figure, reached by conflating disparate organizations and lumping together the support they […]

Muslim preacher: “Oh Allah, annihilate the Jews…let us kill them”

Oct 28, 2015 5:06 pm By Robert Spencer

More genocidal incitement — and in the U.S., the allies of people such as this preacher prevail upon corporations to do their bidding and stigmatize resistance to this savagery. “Palestinian Preacher at Al-Aqsa Mosque Rally Calls to Restore the Caliphate, Annihilate the Jews,” MEMRI, October 24, 2015: At a rally held at the Al-Aqsa Mosque, […]

Sweden: Journalist stoned while trying to film in no-go zone

Oct 28, 2015 4:52 pm By Robert Spencer

A few months ago it was “racist,” “bigoted” and “Islamophobic” even to point out that such areas existed. No one remembered to tell the Muslims who live in them. “WATCH: Journalist Stoned While Trying To Film In Swedish No Go Zone,” by Liam Deacon, Breitbart, October 27, 2015: A Swedish journalist attempting to make a […]

Walmart axes IDF Halloween costume under pressure from pro-jihad groups

Oct 28, 2015 4:26 pm By Robert Spencer

This is the same strategy that Islamic supremacists and their Leftist allies employ against counter-jihad speakers and writers: manufacture a controversy over their supposedly unacceptable opinions, such that people are afraid to have them speak or feature their work, for fear of accusations of “racism” and “bigotry.” They’re trying to rule resistance to jihad outside […]

Muslim rapist to victim: “Islam allows it and we will do it”

Oct 28, 2015 3:19 pm By Robert Spencer

According to Islamic law, Muslim men can take “captives of the right hand” (Qur’an 4:3, 4:24, 33:50). The Qur’an says: O Prophet! We have made lawful to you your wives to whom you have paid their dowries, and those whom your right hand possesses of those whom Allah has given you as spoils of war (33:50). […]

UK: Muslim sex attacker dodges deportation by claiming to be a Syrian refugee

This fellow is apparently a “Palestinian” or an Egyptian, not a Syrian at all, but the UK Home Office is too busy preventing foes of jihad terror from entering the country to notice. “Illegal immigrant sex attacker dodges deportation after saying he’s a SYRIAN REFUGEE,” by Nick Gutteridge, Express, October 27, 2015: AN illegal immigrant […]

“Amjad who has run a jewellers shop in Dewsbury for 17 years and a hotel in Roundhay Road, Leeds for five years had denied the offence claiming he made the notes, which included physical exercises because he was trying to lose weight.” Hamas-linked CAIR should have rushed to his defense.

Israel: Islamic Movement leader gets 11-month sentence for inciting violence

Oct 28, 2015 11:50 am By Robert Spencer
