Ramadan in Egypt: Muslims kill Christian priest with hail of bullets outside church
Did Fr. Raphael provoke them in some way? Did he draw Muhammad? Did he opine that Islam was not a religion of peace? Or could his murder simply have been provoked by who he was, as an Infidel, a Christian priest? Why are Church leaders in the West so uniformly silent about the Muslim persecution […]
Strict gun control didn’t stop jihadists from gathering weapons near German mosque
Police seized a “war grade weapons” arsenal near a mosque in the German state of Nordrhein-Westfalen. Local politician Ismail Tipi said the discovery “confirms his feelings that these fundamentalist Salafists groups are ready to use violence against the civilian population.” Germany has ultra-strict gun control laws, which did not prevent Islamic jihadists from obtaining a […]
New Robert Spencer pamphlet: Oriana Fallaci: Europe’s Cassandra
Inside my copy of Oriana Fallaci’s The Force of Reason is an envelope, on which is written in Fallaci’s inimitable and elegant handwriting, “PERSONAL. For Robert Spencer from O. Fallaci.” Oriana included this request in the note inside the envelope: “Please don’t let somebody else write about ‘The Force of Reason’ and me. Do it […]

CIA Director John Brennan is claiming that the biggest crisis facing the EU is not the Islamic State threat, but Brexit.

Homesick for “Islamophobic” US, “Clock Boy” returns to Texas
Ahmed Mohamed didn’t build anything. He just fit existing clockworks into a pencil box. His arrest was a hysterical overreaction, but not “Islamophobia”: school officials nationwide have acted in similar ways with non-Muslim students because of the zero tolerance policy on weaponry. There were ominous implications of this entire episode, with the inevitable effect that […]
Ramadan in Israel: Muslim murders 13-year-old Israeli girl in her bed, is celebrated as hero by “Palestinians”
The savagery of this is breathtaking and should gain for the “Palestinians” the opprobrium of the entire world. But it won’t. Instead, the Obama administration and the UN are likely to issue fresh condemnations of Israel. “PA and Fatah quick to honor murderer who killed 13-year-old girl in her sleep,” by Itamar Marcus and Nan […]
DHS top dog Jeh Johnson refuses to answer Senate on scrubbing terror docs of all mention of jihad and Islam
Throughout this questioning by Ted Cruz, DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson maintains that how the enemy is identified is unimportant, and that he and other intelligence and law enforcement top dogs know full well who the enemy is, and are busy foiling his plots. Cruz, in response, shreds Johnson, pointing to numerous ways in which the […]
Wikipedia removes Orlando jihad massacre from ‘Islamist Terror Attack’ list
“An editor named Bastun further claimed that just because Omar Mateen pledged allegiance to ISIS, that doesn’t mean that his actions were indicative of the Islamic group. ‘The world’s asylums are full of people who claim they’re Napoleon. If one of them attacks a psychiatric nurse, we don’t attribute the attack to the French Empire […]
Robert Spencer in FrontPage: Hillary’s ‘Serious Lack of Competence’ Cost Lives at Benghazi
But she is only the tip of the iceberg. Over at FrontPage, I explain why. Former CIA officer D. W. Wilber noted in The Hill Monday that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s actions leading up to the Benghazi attack, and the Obama administration’s foreign policy in Libya as a whole were “lunacy on a […]
