Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Archbishop of Albania: Conversion of Hagia Sophia to a mosque is a ‘cultural jihad’

Oct 21, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 12 Comments

The archbishop is right. The conversion of Hagia Sophia to a mosque is for Erdogan a symbol of Islam’s triumph over secularism, just as its conversion to a museum in 1935 was a symbol of secularism’s triumph over Islam, and its original conversion to a mosque in 1453 was a symbol of Islam’s triumph over […]

Albania signs deal with Turkey to bring 30,000 Muslim migrants to area where 120,000 Greeks live

Apr 29, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Demographic jihad: the refugees and jihadists “will be used by Rama for demographic alteration of the Greek population of the region […] as has happened historically, it is very likely that gangs will be organized independently or led by agents who will ravage Greek homes and villages. In this way, they will force the Greek […]

Albania: Police foil Tehran-backed jihad terror plot at Sufi ceremony

Oct 28, 2019 12:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

Albanian police have announced that they “thwarted an attack allegedly planned by a Tehran-backed ‘terrorist cell’ against opponents of the Iranian regime in the Balkan country last year. The cell belonged to the Quds Force, an elite unit of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) responsible for foreign operations.” The target was a Sufi ceremony […]

Network of mosques helps Muslim migrants make their way into Europe

Jun 2, 2018 2:57 pm By Robert Spencer

Why shouldn’t the mosques help Muslim migrants? In Islam, migration can be a holy act. To emigrate in the cause of Allah – that is, to move to a new land in order to bring Islam there, is considered in Islam to be a highly meritorious act. “And whoever emigrates for the cause of Allah […]

Islamic State to Muslims in the Balkans: “Either join it here, or kill there”

Jun 5, 2015 8:58 am By Robert Spencer

How did these misunderstanders of Islam get the crazy idea that jihad had something to do with killing? Every Western authority knows that the Islamic State has nothing, nothing whatsoever, to do with Islam, but do any of them ever stop and ponder, even for a moment, why it is that the Islamic State appeals […]

Pope calls for condemnation of those who “pervert” religion to justify violence

Sep 21, 2014 2:40 pm By Robert Spencer

Actually, there are plenty of condemnations. Many Muslim organizations worldwide have condemned the Islamic State. What we don’t see are actual organized efforts by Muslim leaders to teach Muslims to reject the understanding of Islam that the Islamic State represents. If all the condemnations were sincere, we would see more direct action against the Islamic […]

Albania arrests two imams who recruited Muslims for Syrian jihad

Mar 21, 2014 4:56 pm By Robert Spencer

These are imams. They are teachers of Islam, and devout Muslims. They have dedicated their lives to understanding Islam and teaching it to others. How did they come to hold the idea that jihad involved violence against unbelievers — an idea that we are constantly told in the West is something that only greasy Islamophobes […]

UK: Albanian Misunderstander of Islam gets 7 years for weapons, Hizballah bomb-making manuals, suicide belt

Dec 18, 2009 9:10 pm By Robert Spencer

And he wrote in a chat forum that he wanted to see Americans and Jews killed. But…but…I thought Albanian Muslims were all moderate, peaceful, and fiercely loyal to America and the West! “British court jails Albanian on terrorist charges,” from JTA, December 18 (thanks to Maxwell): (JTA) — A British court jailed an Albanian Muslim […]

“Orahovac Albanians in Kosovo may be the leading cadre of terrorist recruits, recruited by al-Qaeda”

Mar 26, 2005 8:03 am By Robert Spencer

Fascinating information from “Al Qaeda in the Balkans: Who in the Balkans wants to destroy America?,” by Miroljub Jevtic, Ph.D. in Serbiana, with thanks to Fraser: The news that a group of mujahadeens headed for Osama bin Laden’s jihad were captured on the border between Pakistan and Afghanistan would be nothing new, had the Pakistani […]
