While nearly everyone has expressed an opinion about the burkini ban that was put in place by the mayors of several dozen French municipalities, and then overturned by a decision of the Conseil d’Etat, the views of Jean-Louis Harouel, a French legal historian and polymath, are of unusual significance. Harouel, a professor emeritus of the […]

George Washington University hires Muslim convicted of soliciting jihad murder
Seamus Hughes, deputy director of the Program on Extremism at George Washington University’s Center for Cyber & Homeland Security, says: “I trust him. We did our due diligence.” How did they do that? It may be that Jesse Morton is as reformed and repentant as the day is long, but when George Washington University’s Center […]
Romania: Pakistani Muslim to be expelled for spreading “global jihad” propaganda
“Romania’s main domestic intelligence agency said in a statement Tuesday that the man entered Romania illegally in 2015 and then married a Romanian woman. It said he sought to obtain a residency permit based on his marriage.” Leniency over illegal immigration has consequences. “Pakistani man to be expelled from Romania over terrorism,” Associated Press, August […]
French interior minister: “We are at war with an enemy trying to pit Muslims against non-Muslims”
This idea is very common in the West. American politicians have articulated it. The reasoning goes like this: jihadis recruit by pointing to Western counter-terror initiatives (such as France’s now-discarded burkini ban, which was meant to strike against allegiance to jihadist and Islamic supremacist groups that flaunt Islamic dress in the West, and proposals such […]
Independent: Muslim killers scream “Allahu akbar” to get publicity, not because they’re jihadis
Andrew MacLeod is a “visiting Professor at Kings College London and a former UN and Red Cross official who served in countries like Rwanda, Yugoslavia, Pakistan, Afghanistan and others.” What sloppy writing. What countries are like Rwanda, Yugoslavia, Pakistan, and Afghanistan? “He has negotiated with warlords and terrorists.” He explains here that a Muslim who […]
Wyoming station reports on Qur’an burning but doesn’t show it “out of respect for Muslims”
The KCWY report is biased in the predictable manner, with the protesters depicted as being hateful and their concerns dismissed as prejudice. One comic moment in the video here comes when the rally organizer asks a Muslim who has come up on the stage: “Did the Prophet marry a six-year-old girl?” The Muslim answers, “No, […]
France: Muslim stabs cop in throat because she “represented France”
“The assailant, 31, had a psychiatric disorder…” Here we go again: it’s yet another manifestation of the global outbreak of mental illness. All this excuse-making doesn’t mitigate the reality of jihad; it just keeps non-Muslims ignorant and complacent about that jihad. Apparently that is the point. As for representing France, the Islamic State issued this call […]
Video: Robert Spencer on the Obama/Clinton war against the reality of the jihad threat
On August 26, 2016, I spoke in Ellisville, Missouri, on the Obama administration’s denial of the nature and magnitude of the jihad threat. The event was sponsored by Concerned Women for America.
Singapore: Two Muslims jailed for financing the Islamic State in Bangladesh
Bangladesh has been a hotbed of jihad activity in recent months, with the Bangladeshi government insisting that there is no Islamic State presence there, and claiming that all jihad activity has been perpetrated by indigenous groups. Meanwhile, John Kerry just wants you to stop talking about it, and then all will be well. “2 Bangladeshi […]
Passage of Qur’an to be read at funeral of woman killed by Muslim screaming “Allahu akbar”
“After talking about the misrepresentation of Mia’s death in the media as an act of terrorism on the part of an Islamic fundamentalist, the minister delivering the service suggested we include a Koranic reading, and he will find something suitable with a friend who is an Islamic scholar.” You can see from this how effective […]
