Georgetown’s Nathan Lean is a professional character assassin, a man who has dedicated his life to defaming and lying about anyone and everyone who dares to utter a critical word about the religious ideology that guides Islamic jihadists and incites them to commit mass murder. His chief targets include Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Maajid Nawaz and me, and in every case, Lean plays fast and loose with the facts, cheerfully purveying falsehoods even when he has been shown that they are false, so desperate is he to clear away all obstacles to the advance of jihad terror. He is also the lowest kind of thug, and has repeatedly tweeted out what he thinks is my home address and places that I frequent (he was wrong in both cases, but that’s beside the point), in an obvious attempt either to frighten me into silence or to signal to his jihadi friends and allies where I can be found and killed.
Lean’s idea of combating “Islamophobia” is not to call for reform in Islam, or to engage in discussion and debate with those who stand against jihad violence and hatred, but simply and crudely to attempt to establish that all those who call attention to and object to the activities of Islamic jihadis are very bad people. Even if this were true, it wouldn’t make the bombings, the beheadings, the mass murder, the sex slavery, the boasts of imminent conquest any easier to take. But Lean apparently hopes to pick off all those who speak out against jihad violence and Sharia oppression one by one, so that no one is left who dares to raise a dissenting note, even as the throats are slit and the bombs explode.
It is good in this video to see Asra Nomani call him out for his gutter tactics. What she quoted from him was only the very tip of a very large iceberg. Were anyone to care to assemble the complete works of this vicious little man, they would find it an appalling collection of slurs, smears, innuendos, mudslinging, defamation, lies, and worse. And his refusal to explain why he decries such gutter tactics but engages in them himself exposes his hypocrisy.
“Georgetown’s Nathan Lean Says Everything by Saying Nothing,” IPT News, February 24, 2016:
In just two minutes, journalist Asra Nomani exposed the empty and bullying nature of people pushing the “Islamophobia” narrative. The term is often used to stifle criticism of Islamism – a political movement aimed at imposing Islam on society – by casting it as inherently bigoted.
During a forum Tuesday devoted to the issue, Nomani confronted Georgetown University’s Nathan Lean, whose life is dedicated to combating “Islamophobia,” about his own behavior.
“I’m thrilled that you have an opposition to pernicious, nasty attacks,” Nomani said. “My question is, why do you engage in them?”
“We’ll take another question,” Lean said. His only comment was an attempt to smear Nomani, implying her question was not worthy of a reply because he disagrees with her. Nomani said he was misrepresenting her views.
Lean presents himself as a serious academic. He is the research director at the Pluralism, Diversity and Islamophobia project at Georgetown University’s Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding.
Center Director John Esposito is a longtime ally of Islamist activists in the United States, defending Palestinian Islamic Jihad board member Sami Al-Arian and serving as a defense expert in the Hamas-support trial of the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development.
Lean’s dismissal of a legitimate question – on the video, Nomani backs up her description of his “pernicious, nasty attacks” with several recent examples – took place in an open forum on “Islamophobia.”
When challenged about it later, Lean mischaracterized the incident, claiming Nomani “threw a tantrum.” Watch the video above. It’s a wildly inaccurate claim.
Lean’s refusal to engage in a question presented professionally and politely seems to fly in the face of the ideals espoused by the Association of American Colleges and Universities.
“Academic responsibility requires professors to submit their knowledge and claims to rigorous and public review by peers who are experts in the subject matter under consideration; to ground their arguments in the best available evidence; and to work together to foster the education of students,” it says.
Lean may not consider Nomani a peer, but her career as a Wall Street Journal reporter made her a horrified witness of where unchecked radical Islamist thought can lead. Now, she’s part of a fledgling Muslim Reform Movement, which declares its full embrace of “a respectful, merciful and inclusive interpretation of Islam,” “for secular governance, democracy and liberty” and “for the protection of all people of all faiths and non-faith who seek freedom from dictatorships, theocracies and Islamist extremists.”
Lean and his colleagues could try to take issue with the reformists’ principles, but that might prove to be difficult. It is so much easier to ignore a legitimate question or smear the messenger.
That says it all.

Off-topic is right. This is an article about strides being made in Islamic reform; turning it into a soapbox for Christian evangelicals is out of whack.
Oppressaphobe says
And what did you do to the forward motion of this discussion by interrupting the flow to criticize a poster?
You can’t just ignore this?
Just wondering why you would waste anyone’s time.
Alexandra Pierce says
@ Oppressaphobe – Funny, those rhetorical sentiments were exactly those that some of us had about the original poster.
UNCLE VLADDI says
Knee-jerk idolatry: “Muslims and their defenders scare me, so I must now invoke my invisible friend by loudly chanting “COME LORD JESUS TO WIPE MY BUM AND AND TIE MY SHOELACES FOR ME!” It’s pathetic to automatically jettison one’s intellect in response to the fear of verbal threats.
Gary says
Agreed! Nathan Lean is defending nothing but a lie……
Mohammad offers the world deceit, destruction, and death. Jesus on the other hand, IS Lord and Savior.
“But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”
Alexandra Pierce says
*yawn*
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I’m sure I’ll get my eternity in hellfire for mocking Christian evangelizers. In the meantime, how about that Asra Nomani, eh?

Funny I’ve never seen such contentiousness on this site before.
Maybe I’ll go somewhere else.
Oh, and I love your Emerson quote; so fitting.

Atheist7 says
Great work Robert Spencer. I find it very refreshing to see that you and Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris are on the same Hit List!. Would it not be great if we could get Christians, Jews, Atheists and others to put aside their differences and work together to combat Islamization?
gravenimage says
This is what Robert Spencer and Jihad Watch are working for, Atheist!
Atheist7 says
Graven, Where do we see this faith-faith and faith-nonfaith cooperation? It appears to me that nearly all of the posting on Jihad watch are from Christians, a few Atheists, and a very few Muslims. I see Muslim- Catholic love fests – but no open, concerted cooperation between say Robert Spencer and Richard Dawkins. I see no conferences where Christians, Jews, and Atheists join forces to denounce jihad. Are Atheists actually more hated by Catholics than are Muslims? After all, Atheists consider the beliefs of Christians, Jews, and Muslims to be silly myths that most people have to learn at a young age or they will appear to be totally ridiculous. Thus, we consider your beliefs in the supernatural simply childish. Nevertheless, we see that Islam is the religion of slavery, and for that reason we oppose it strongly.
Sandra Lee Smith says
Well, you’re wrong about Christianity being seen as “silly myths” if not learned at early ages; CS Lewis wasn’t a youngster when he came to the faith, while trying to DISPROVE It, in fact; and neither was I! Nor were many others who have come to see the truth about it. But that’s your choice to make; just don’t try to project it onto others.
Atheist7 says
BTW Graven, Your accurate analysis of the world has helped me to understand the fundamental question: “What the Hell is going on here?” Thanks for the many clarifications.

Laws Demand a Lawgiver. Science has discovered that our physical universe appeared from nothing. But how did this happen? Science cannot explain the origin of the universe, but there must be an answer. Contrary to what some believe, the Bible’s simple answer is consistent with true science: “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth” (Genesis 1:1). Notice that the Bible does not tell us when this original creation occurred, only that there was a beginning of time, and a beginning of the universe. Science and the Bible agree that the universe began, and that it immediately operated according to predictable natural laws. When the universe came into existence, all the laws of physics and chemistry were intact; they did not “evolve.” Patrick Glynn, in his book God: The Evidence, writes that everything had to be “‘just right’ from the very start—everything from the values of fundamental forces like electromagnetism and gravity, to the relative masses of the various subatomic particles, to things like the number of neutrino types at time 1 second, which the universe has to ‘know’ already at 10-43 second. The slightest tinkering with a single one of scores of basic values and relationships in nature would have resulted in a universe very different from the one we inhabit—say, one with no stars like our sun, or no stars, period. Far from being accidental, life appeared to be the goal toward which the entire universe from the very first moment of its existence had been orchestrated, fine-tuned” (pp. 7–8). Science has found no reason for the many laws of physics and chemistry, and for the many precise values and relationships, to have come into existence exactly as they are. From a mathematical point of view, the odds against our universe having just the right laws to sustain life are astronomical. Remember, these laws were in existence at the first moment of creation. Scientists recognize that they had to be. As Hawking acknowledged in The Nature of Space and Time: “The only way to have scientific theory is if the laws of physics hold everywhere, including at the beginning of the universe” (p. 40). Is it reasonable, then, to assume that these laws came about from nothing—from random chance? Absolutely not! The existence of such marvelous and predictable laws in nature points to a master intelligence and Lawgiver. Add to that evidence the existence of unseen spiritual laws, and you double the evidence of a great Lawgiver. What is the origin of these natural laws that permeate our universe? As your Bible reveals: “There is one Lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy” (James 4:12). Yes, the Creator God is the Lawgiver, both of natural law and spiritual law. “The Lord is our Lawgiver” (Isaiah 33:22). Have some scientists recognized the significant evidence of intelligence behind the natural laws of our universe? Yes! Albert Einstein, the great physicist and Nobel Prize winner, saw awesome intelligence revealed in the existence of natural law. He wrote that the scientist’s “religious feeling takes the form of a rapturous amazement at the harmony of natural law, which reveals an intelligence of such superiority that, compared with it, all the systematic thinking and acting of human beings is an utterly insignificant reflection” (Einstein: A Centenary Volume, ed. A. P. French, Harvard University Press, 1979, p. 305). Einstein was amazed at the intelligence he saw in natural law. He called human intelligence, compared to that superior intelligence revealed in natural law, “an utterly insignificant reflection.” That far superior intelligence behind the laws of the universe is the God who created the universe—the great Lawgiver!
Design Demands a Designer. Not only do we find predictable physical laws throughout the universe, we find tremendous evidence of intelligent design. The human body, for example, shows insurmountable evidence of design. Consider the human eye. What is the alternative? Certainly one may ignore evidence of design behind the laws that govern the universe, and behind the universe itself. But in the face of so much evidence, it takes greater “faith” to believe in a godless universe than to follow the evidence to its logical conclusion: the existence of a Creator God who set in place His laws for a purpose. Why would people exercise so much “faith” to ignore the evidence right in front of their eyes? Even some atheists and agnostics admit that by choosing to remain ignorant, they can continue living their lives without God, denying the consequences. Aldous Huxley, the famous English author, expressed this perspective well: “Most ignorance is vincible ignorance. We don’t know because we don’t want to know. It is our will that decides how and upon what subjects we shall use our intelligence. Those who detect no meaning in the world generally do so because, for one reason or another, it suits their books that the world should be meaningless” (Ends and Means, p. 312). What an admission! Huxley’s statement sounds very much like what the Apostle Paul wrote: “For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened” (Romans 1:20–21). Do not be like these people! Examine the universe, creation and the purpose of human life, and you will find that design demands a designer!
Atheist says
Mark, It is really nice to know that I can post on a Christian web site without anyone issuing a death threat on me.(Hopefully). You have a good post with many valid points and I am sure that we could have some excellent discussions for at least a decade. Following those discussions we both would have learned a lot – but we would not have changed the world. Right now we are engaged in a battle to save our civilization. So we should be focusing on the mission.
Robert Spencer says
This is not a “Christian web site.” This is a pro-freedom, counter-jihad website. Anyone who supports the freedom of speech and equality of rights for all people is welcome to post here. Even those who do not are also welcome to post here, unless their game consists entirely of libel and abuse.
Atheist7 says
Mark, It is good to know that I can post on a Christian web site without fear that anyone will issue a death threat against me. I like your post and I am sure that we could spend at least a decade in debate. At the end of that time we both would have learned a lot – but we would not have changed the world. Do not let my post be a distraction. We need to focus on preventing Islam from destroying our civilization
Atheist7 says
Thanks for the correction Robert Spencer. And sorry about the double post. I thought that the first one did not go through.
Mark Swan says
We should Take What Mr. Spencer said as word to the wise.
Sandra Lee Smith says
Did you fail to recognize that the answer to how to stop Islamic Jihad is Jesus Christ? HE alone is the answer to what’s wrong with our world, and especially with those bent on so much destruction! Neither atheism, nor any other -ism, has the necessary answers.

Jerry in Minneapolis says
These gutter tactics by islamo-nazis comes as no surprise. They tend to not be the most moral and forthright people, their agenda is one of murder and oppression for fascist islam. No matter how sophisticated and refined they might act they will always be thugs to me. Religious barbarity has no business asserting itself as the dominant force in today’s world. These religious gangsters cannot defame our heroes for freedom, they only make them look that much better to moral and thinking people. I stand with the likes of Spencer, Harris, and Dawkins, because I know their philosophy is respectful of human rights and sound thinking. And those who prefer islam’s brutalism over their good intentions have declared themselves as incapable of understanding the superior virtues and goodness of western democracy and human rights. To me they are traitors of human progress and good morals, even if done unwittingly and without malice.
mortimer says
The comparison to Nazism is fitting. What Nathan Lean is doing is no different from Der Stürmer (lit. “the Attacker”), a weekly Nazi tabloid newspaper published by Julius Streicher (a prominent official in the Nazi Party) from 1923 to the end of World War II, who was hanged after the Nuremburg Trials for his role in promoting hatred of Jews and anyone who opposed Hitlerism.
Nathan Lean is an American Julius Streicher. Streicher shouted ‘Heil Hitler’ before he was hanged.
Jerry in Minneapolis says
So true. And the civilized people of the world should be very concerned about the brainwashing propaganda that muslims are subjected to. They love their muhammad and allah as much as we love human rights and democracy, a threat worth pondering. There’s a reason that dog Streicher was hung, his propaganda created the atmosphere and hatred that led to genocide. And guess what, islam’s propagandists are no better. They do a wonderful job of filling the heads of muslims with supremacist ideas at the expense of our dignity and basic human rights. Islam is a vile enterprise that moral people must fight on every level. Thank you for sharing the truth we both hold, no doubt you have a clear understanding of islam’s evil agenda of world conquest for religious barbarity.

Allan Mandrowski says
You’re right Nathan Lean is a serial liar, misrepresenting others’ views to assassinate their character with.
He has been routinely exposed for his bigotry and dishonesty though, even on the left. Looking at some of his Salon articles and the top comments on them, they are all negative about Nathan Lean and very rational and honest about the illiberal tenets of Islam.
So not all hope is lost. In a way a lot on the left and a lot on the right (I’d assume most on JW are right) come full circle when it boils down to the truth about people like Nathan Lean and Reza Aslan.
mortimer says
Nathan Lean follows the example of Mohammed whose primary interest was to control information about jihad and do character assassination of those who spread that information: Arabia’s story-teller-poets. Mohammed’s desire was to eliminate the free exchange of ideas that we call ‘freedom of expression’. Nathan Lean imitates Mohammed.
Mohammed ordered poets of his own to attack with words his opponents and claimed that the archangel Gabriel would be with them (Bukhari, Military Expeditions, vol. 5, nos. 4123-4124; 4196).
Mohammed commanded Muslim poets to insult his enemies. The insults would go only one way–Muhammad’s way. Lean takes his hate message further by soliciting the murder of Islamo-critics and Islamo-analysts.
The Sunna of Allah’s messenger is to slander and then murder critics. Nathan Lean is practicing normative verbal jihad by slandering and soliciting murder. However, that is not the way civilized people behave.
Nathan Lean is a professional bully paid by Gulf money and transparently so. His approach is the reverse of that of academic study: his approach is to promote one-sided messages and dismiss alternate information or explanations. Nathan Lean’s approach is called ‘propaganda’.
Nathan Lean is a full-time professional propagandist for jihad terrorism.
RonaldB says
A huge problem is that Georgetown University and other major universities in the US, including Harvard, accept strings-attached funding from Islamic billionaires. The Geogetown “Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding” is ridiculous on the face of it, as Saudi Arabia, the country of bin Talal, does not allow churches, non-Muslim religious observance, or bibles.
No one associated with the Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding can have a speck of integrity. It’s self-contradictory.
The problem is, Georgetown University grants degrees and receives US government funding. At a minimum, no institution of higher learning should receive US government money if it received funding from foreign sources. The US ought to consider outright forbidding educational, religious, communication, or political organizations in the US from receiving foreign funding. The US ought to be able to pay for its own institutions, without the need for foreign contributions with multiple strings attached.

Phobia implies a dislike or fear of something which begs the question why? It may be perfectly valid to have a fear or dislike of something so here goes, I am an islamophobe, now why might that be the case?
Hey why dont we have a discussion about the whole issue maybe on TV with readings from the koran.
Surely the whole point of islam is to terorise everyone so if we are islamophobes then it has achieved its objective. I feel sure Mr Trump will in due course enligten the world further Trump and Carson the only two to speack up.

Yes, Mohammed said, and I can’t quote chapter and verse like some here can, “I have been made victorious by terror.” That is their goal.
Saudi Arabia financed a center for Islamic studies at Georgetown. Georgetown is, IMO, bought and paid for!

I’ve heard Robert Spencer mention Nathan Lean from time to time, but until today didn’t know he was bought and paid for by the Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Center at Georgetown. Say no more, I know all I need to know about him, including his connections to John Esposito.
….oh yeah, his bio says he used to work for Aslan Media….need more info about him? Of course not!
The author of the IPT article cites breech of AACU standards of academic freedom, but sadly that ship has sailed unless applied in favor of campus Leftists.
University academia…..always drooling over the prospect of some endowments and lifetime, gravy-train jobs. The network of bin Talal centers, funded by the oil money we enrich the Saudis with, is nothing more than a PR scheme, with plenty of employees eager to do their master’s bidding in getting out the right message.

Asra Nomani was brilliant! I have puzzled for years how it is even possible to be civil with someone so low as Nathan Lean; she just gave us a brilliant example of how to do it. I’m going to have to analyze it to try to figure it out. Clearly, she realizes if she descends to his level, she has zero credibility, so somehow she manages to confront him while remaining civil, because there’s just too much at stake to do anything less. And, as he tried to dismiss her out of hand, she stuck to her guns! What an amazing lady.

It must be rejected. Expose them and relentlessly pursue those that try to invade society with their cancer. We really are the white blood cells so be good little cells and put your stuff out everywhere you can with relentless energy.

Lean and his buddies should be locked up in a mental ward as they show signs of being borderline sociopaths, particularly with their inability to tell the truth and constant attacks on those who do tell the truth. Of course, in Islam lying is considered appropriate to advance its ideology. Believers in the majority of the tenets of Islam might be considered sociopaths? Something to look into.
Oppressaphobe says
I wish people had enough savvy to see when they are being propagandized. Perhaps they are sociopaths that control the minds of the ignorant, but I think the science of psychology is pretty much in the tank for the government. Psychology seems to have been used more for evil propaganda than for actually helping people who have real problems.

Nathan Lean is a slimeball and Georgetown University has been conquered by Islam.
We need to “figure this out”, as Trump might say. Our Universities must not be manufacturers of lies and propaganda funded by foreign agents.
Moi says
So I looked up Nathan Lean. He’s definitely a Muslim sympathizer. So I explored why. It is because he is OWNED by Prince Al waled bin Talal a billionaire from Saudi Arabia. Lean teaches at a same named Islamic study center at Georgetown University. Isn’t it Ironic that so much money comes out of Saudi Arabia, given as grants to a great number of universities throughout the world but mostly in America to promote the filth known a s Islam. Nathan Lean is in bed with the Saudi’s. He is a shill for Islam and is probably a closet Muslim. I wonder how much money they (Saudi’s) pay him for his angry stance against anyone who speaks out against Islam. Georgetown U. will not fire him because of all the money that comes their way from the middle east.
