Belgian police find evidence that the Islamic State is looking to build dirty bomb

Feb 29, 2016 6:55 pm By Robert Spencer

“Thankfully, the Obama administration said at the time that they had no evidence the material was obtained by ISIS for use in a dirty bomb and they were monitoring the situation.” Oh, that’s reassuring. “Belgian police find evidence that ISIS is looking to build dirty bomb,” by L. Todd Wood, Washington Times, February 29, 2016: […]

Obama wants more Syrian refugees in the U.S.

Feb 29, 2016 6:46 pm By Robert Spencer

What could possibly go wrong? Last February, the Islamic State boasted it would soon flood Europe with as many as 500,000 refugees. And the Lebanese Education Minister recently said that there were 20,000 jihadis among the refugees in camps in his country. Meanwhile, 80% of migrants who have recently come to Europe claiming to be […]

Muslim Indoctrination and the Department of Education: From Hijab Dress-Up to Convert

Feb 29, 2016 6:16 pm By Mary Grabar

The World Hijab Day website presents hijab-wearing as a sign of empowerment; women and girls who wear hijabs are called “queens, princesses, and sultanas.” One blog post by Megan Baase, however, reveals that experimental hijab-wearing may have other effects.  Baase writes that she didn’t know much about Islam until World Hijab Day.  After reading about […]

Muslim migrants screaming “Allahu akbar” break down fence on Macedonian border with home-made battering ram

Feb 29, 2016 5:53 pm By Robert Spencer

No doubt they will settle in to being loyal and thoroughly assimilated citizens of European countries, right? “Storming the walls of Europe: Hundreds of migrants use home-made BATTERING RAM to break down fence on Macedonian border,” by Jennifer Newton, MailOnline, February 29, 2016: Hundreds of migrants attempted to break through a fence on the Greece-Macedonia […]

Boston Marathon jihad murderer passed US citizenship test and denied terror links 3 months before bombing

Feb 29, 2016 4:21 pm By Robert Spencer

But the government assures us it is going to vet the huge number of Muslim refugees that Obama is bringing into the United States, and make sure there are no jihad terrorists among them. How are they going to do that? “Federal files leave questions about Marathon bomber, friend,” by Maria Sacchetti, Boston Globe, February […]

Switzerland: Trial begins of four Muslim asylum seekers accused of forming Islamic State terror cell

Feb 29, 2016 9:04 am By Robert Spencer

The solution: bring in many, many more Muslim asylum seekers. What could possibly go wrong? Well, why do you think security is so high at this trial? Because so many have been brought in already. “Swiss trial begins of alleged Islamic State terror cell,” Swissinfo, February 29, 2016: The trial of four Swiss-based Iraqis, accused […]

Video: Muslima screaming “Allahu akbar” holds child’s severed head; cops say motive unknown

Feb 29, 2016 7:22 am By Robert Spencer

“‘She was standing near the metro entrance and caught my attention because she was screaming Allahu Akbar. I saw that she had a bloodied head in her arms, but I thought it was not real. People in the crowd said it was real.’ In other footage of the scene, the woman can be heard shouting […]

Pakistan: Protesters clash with cops after killer of blasphemy law foe executed

Feb 29, 2016 7:10 am By Robert Spencer

“Qadri was hailed as a hero in the conservative Islamic society after he gunned down Salman Taseer, the former governor of Punjab, in 2011. Taseer, an outspoken critic of Pakistan’s 1980s blasphemy laws…” We always hear that those Muslims who believe in jihad and Sharia are a tiny minority of extremists. Stories like this one […]

Trial begins for Muslim Air Force vet accused of supporting the Islamic State

Feb 29, 2016 6:53 am By Robert Spencer

Once again we see a convert to Islam get the idea that his new religion commands him to make war against Infidels. Authorities remain wholly incurious about this phenomenon. “Trial starts for Air Force veteran accused of supporting ISIS,” by Nicole Hong, Wall Street Journal, February 28, 2016 (thanks to Lookmann): A U.S. Air Force […]

Kuwaiti businessman: “ISIS has always been here”

Feb 28, 2016 10:28 pm By Robert Spencer

Ahmad Sarraf doesn’t mean that the Islamic State has a presence in Kuwait. He means something much more sweeping: that throughout Islamic history, there have been armed movements committing atrocities in the name of Islam and in accord with its teachings. He is decrying the Islamic world’s failure to acknowledge those atrocities, and is right: […]

UK imam’s killer turns out to be Muslim

Feb 28, 2016 10:11 pm By Robert Spencer

Another instance in which what was assumed to be “Islamophobia” turned out not to be. But the “Islamophobia” victimhood industry will keep chugging along. In the U.S., the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) wants and needs hate crimes against Muslims, because they’re the currency they use to buy power and influence in our victimhood-oriented society, […]

Canada: Senior imam mocks the Western idea of “marital rape”

Feb 28, 2016 9:56 pm By Robert Spencer

A hadith depicts Muhammad saying: “If a husband calls his wife to his bed [i.e. to have sexual relation] and she refuses and causes him to sleep in anger, the angels will curse her till morning” (Bukhari 4.54.460). And: “By him in Whose Hand lies my life, a woman can not carry out the right […]

Islamic State murders 31 in Shia district of Baghdad

Feb 28, 2016 9:40 pm By Robert Spencer

Which gets more publicity: “Islamophobia” or the Sunni-Shi’ite jihad? Which kills more people: “Islamophobia” or the Sunni-Shi’ite jihad? “Isis suicide bombers blow up dozens of shoppers in Baghdad market,” by Matt Broomfield, Independent, February 28, 2016: Isis jihadists have killed at least 31 people in a suicide bomb attack in Baghdad.

“We’ve got jihad” in Australia: Islamic State supporter arrested for knife assault

Feb 28, 2016 6:31 pm By Robert Spencer

“Mr Alkiswani was also responsible for setting fire to a Christian street preacher, Paul Sheehan, in Queensland in 2002 in a violent outburst where he doused Mr Sheehan in flammable liquid and threw a match at him while chanting ‘Allah.’” That would seem to be attempted murder. Why was he still running around loose after […]

Hugh Fitzgerald: Boston Police Commissioner William Evans: “We’re All Muslims Deep Down”

Feb 28, 2016 5:30 pm By Hugh Fitzgerald

“Veterans, troubled by rhetoric, rally support of Muslims” reads the headline to a story in the print edition of today’s Boston Sunday Globe (online yesterday it was “Local veterans hold rally in support of Muslims.”) It described a group, Veterans for Peace, that felt it simply had to stand up on behalf of Muslims in […]

Quebec: Muslima who attacked her “disrespectful” daughter with meat cleaver gets three-year sentence

Feb 28, 2016 4:59 pm By Robert Spencer

Three years for attempted murder. Now that’s multicultural! Muslims commit 91 percent of honor killings worldwide. A manual of Islamic law certified as a reliable guide to Sunni orthodoxy by Al-Azhar University, the most respected authority in Sunni Islam, says that “retaliation is obligatory against anyone who kills a human being purely intentionally and without […]

Pope Francis wants “dialogue” with Muslim leader who broke off ties after Benedict XVI condemned jihad mass murder attack

“el-Tayeb has been imam of the al-Azhar Mosque since his 2010 election. He was elected rector of the university in 2003. He is considered a moderate Sunni who has worked to prevent Islamic radicalization.” This moderate Sunni blames the unrest in the Middle East on “world Zionism” and refuses to denounce the Islamic State as […]

Robert Spencer in FrontPage: Are Muslims the New Jews?

Feb 28, 2016 7:42 am By Robert Spencer
