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

Greece, Cyprus, Egypt, France and UAE conduct joint military exercises amid rising Turkish threat

Dec 5, 2020 2:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 1 Comment

In a significant move, the United Arab Emirates “is participating for the first time, along with new arrival France, in the joint Greek-Egyptian-Cypriot Medusa-10 training exercises being held Nov. 30 to Dec. 6 off the coast of Alexandria.” The presence of this alliance in the Mediterranean sends a strong message to Turkey, although “their true […]

Egypt reiterates refusal to link terrorist acts with Islam

Dec 1, 2020 1:30 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 10 Comments

Recall in 2015 the highly publicized call by Egyptian President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi for a religious “revolution” and reform of Islam, a call that drew global accolades. Sisi declared, among other things: “Is it possible that 1.6 billion people [Muslims] should want to kill the rest of the world’s inhabitants – that is 7 billion […]

Egypt: Muslim mob sets church on fire, attacks Christian homes and shops with stones and Molotov cocktails

Nov 29, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer 24 Comments

Will the Islamophobia never end? The mob in this case is enraged over a Christian’s alleged “blasphemy” on Facebook. Authorities do nothing to stop the mob because all too often they are more sympathetic to the rioters than to their victims. An update on this story. “Egypt: Hundreds of Muslim villagers attack Christians after alleged […]

Egyptian Former Movie Actor: ‘Islam is a Religion of Love, Peace and Coexistence That is Being Bullied by Macron’

Nov 26, 2020 8:00 am By Samir A. Zedan 23 Comments

 A former movie actor is promoting Islamic jihad terrorism to Egyptian TV audiences by means of an anti-France campaign riddled fallacies and myths. In this Arabic-language video (the segment concluding at 5:28), Wajdi al-Arabi mixes historic events with fictions to propagate Islamic jihad, using bellicose rhetoric in a modern TV setting. Once a well-known […]

Egypt: Grand Sheikh of al-Azhar refutes claim that Islam allows Muslim women to marry non-Muslim men

Nov 20, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 11 Comments

The issue of interfaith marriage has arisen again this week among several Islamic leaders, reflecting a tug of war inside Islam and renewed efforts to keep Sharia provisions rigidly in place. Supremacism and expansionism are central to Islam, while mass Muslim migration, globalism and the Internet have had impact not only upon Western countries, but […]

Egypt: Public prosecutor orders urgent investigation into social media conversation insulting Muhammad

Nov 15, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 16 Comments

A glimpse into the future of the West. Don’t believe me? Ask Richard Stengel. “Egyptian public prosecutor orders investigation of messages insulting Islam’s Prophet on social media,” Ahram Online, November 11, 2020: Egypt’s Public Prosecutor Hamada El-Sawi ordered an urgent investigation into a text conversation circulated on social media of a person insulting Prophet Muhammad, […]

Egypt’s Sisi: Freedom of expression stops when it comes to ‘offending the feelings’ of Muslims

Nov 2, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 28 Comments

A few years ago, al-Sisi, in a speech before Muslim clerics from al-Azhar, said “we are in need of a religious revolution.” Nothing happened, but for years afterward I was asked about this in numerous interviews, as if it heralded genuine reform in Islam. This latest statement from al-Sisi likely won’t extinguish the fond hopes […]

Grand Imam of al-Azhar calls for international legislation criminalizing ‘acts of hate’ against Muslims

Oct 29, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer 51 Comments

Europe, the U.S., and the world at large are eventually going to have to choose: freedom of speech, or submission to Sharia blasphemy laws? Which one they will choose is in doubt at the moment. Submission was galloping forward until Samuel Paty was beheaded. That seems to have galvanized the French government into acting to […]

Egypt: Islamic State driven out of Sinai villages, but murders 15 civilians with booby traps left in their homes

Oct 28, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 7 Comments

“Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into the hearts of the enemies of Allah and your enemies…” (Qur’an 8:60) “Egyptians return to Sinai homes to find Islamic State booby traps,” Middle East Eye, October 24, 2020: Residents of Egypt’s restive North Sinai […]

Egypt’s Sisi: Erdogan ‘now openly uses the Islamic factor,’ warns of ‘wave of terrorists in Greece in the future’

Oct 28, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 18 Comments

The warning from the Egyptian President should put the EU on alert to not tolerate jihadist expansion by Turkey, which is aiming to revive the Ottoman Empire. Back in 2016, Foreign Policy Magazine warned that “Turkey’s new Maps” were “reclaiming the Ottoman Empire” and that Erdogan’s “aggressive nationalism” was “spilling over Turkey’s borders, grabbing land […]

Al-Azhar condemns Macron’s plan for fighting ‘Islamic separatism’ as an ‘explicit call for racism and hate’

Oct 6, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer 22 Comments

Racism? Really? What race is “Islamist separatism” again? I keep forgetting. Anyway, we have seen this many, many times before. Any counterterror initiative, no matter how mild, no matter how carefully worded, no matter how many “moderate” profiteers it puts front and center, will be condemned as “racist” and “hateful.” The effect of this is […]

Reality: Muhammad said: “I have been made victorious through terror” (Bukhari 4:52.220).

One-third of Egyptians see Turkey as the world’s leading Muslim country, many are willing to fight for it

Sep 2, 2020 12:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

As Turkey expands its footprint across the Arab world, using force more than diplomacy, many Muslims in Egypt — the country that gave birth to the Muslim Brotherhood — see Turkey as the leading Muslim country, and they are willing to fight for it. Undoubtedly Turkey has become today’s Islamic supremacist strongman, newly emboldened especially […]

“Muhammad is not the father of one of your men, but the messenger of Allah and last of the prophets. And ever is Allah, of all things, knowing.” (Qur’an 33:40) And what if you don’t believe that?

Turkey’s Erdogan declares agreement between Egypt and Greece null and void

Aug 9, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

What authority does Turkey have to declare void an agreement to which it was not a party? None, of course. Erdogan is asserting authority as if he were the Ottoman caliph. “Erdogan: Egyptian-Greek agreement is null and void,” Libya Observer, August 8, 2020: …Erdogan stressed, in a speech on Friday, that the agreement signed by […]

Italy: Muslim migrant screaming “Allahu akbar” attacks police with nunchucks

Jun 27, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Yet another incident that is being largely ignored by mainstream media: “Italian police arrested a 29-year-old Egyptian national after the migrant attacked the officers while armed with Japanese-style nunchucks and yelling ‘Allah hu Akbar,’” and “I will set the whole town on fire if I don’t get the papers.” Now that’s entitled supremacism.

Egypt, Jordan Will Only Symbolically Condemn Israel

There are those who keep warning the Israelis not to declare their sovereignty in parts of Judea and Samaria (the “West Bank”), lest all hell break loose in the Arab states. There are others who claim that very little will in fact happen: a pro-forma denunciation from Arab states, but no breaking of peace treaties, […]

Egypt: Tortured, jailed gay rights activist who sought refuge in Canada commits suicide

Jun 20, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Oppression, hatred and intolerance against gays are routine in majority-Muslim countries; sharia calls for the outright murder of homosexuals. Aside from the persecution of gays, “for many of them, the attitudes of family and society are a much bigger problem than the fear of being persecuted,” and those attitudes played a large role in what […]

Egypt: Muslims demolish church, arrest Christians

Islamic law forbids the construction of new churches. Christians are “forbidden to ring church bells or display crosses, recite the Torah or Evangel aloud, or make public display of their funerals and feastdays, and are forbidden to build new churches” – Reliance of the Traveller o.11.5 (6,7) “Christian church demolished in Egypt, Christians arrested,” Time24, […]
