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

Germany: Muslim family arrives from Iraq in private jet, says they’re fleeing female genital mutilation threat

Oct 16, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer 17 Comments

Note that the woman’s father is described as “strictly religious” in his demand that she and her seven-year-old daughter have their genitals mutilated “according to Islamic law.” Yet the establishment media in the West consistently and indefatigably insists that female genital mutilation has nothing, nothing whatsoever, to do with Islam. How did these Iraqis get […]

Maine: Democratic Senate Hopeful Repeatedly Killed ‘Racist’ Bills to Outlaw Female Genital Mutilation

Aug 17, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer

My latest in PJ Media: The most revolting news item of the week comes from Maine, where, according to the Washington Free Beacon, “Democratic Senate candidate Sara Gideon repeatedly killed bills to outlaw female genital mutilation during her tenure as the speaker of the Maine House of Representatives.” In amassing this shameful record, Sara Gideon […]

Maine: Democratic Senate candidate Sara Gideon repeatedly killed ‘racist’ bills to outlaw female genital mutilation

Aug 14, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

This is where we have been heading for a long time, without anyone noticing, and now we are arriving. Opposition to female genital mutilation is “racist.” So also opposition to jihad violence and terrorism is “racist,” and so New York City dismantled a successful counterterror program. Soon any resistance to Sharia oppression and jihad violence […]

India: In a dingy gully of progressive Mumbai, Bohra Muslims are removing the clitorises of little girls

Jun 12, 2020 12:00 pm By Radhika Singh

A young Member of Parliament in India found himself in hot soup for raking up a controversy when an old retweet of his was exhumed by his ideological opponents. Quoting Canadian journalist Tarek Fatah, the first-time parliamentarian had once tweeted, “95% Arab women have never had an orgasm in the last few hundred years! Every […]

Somalia: Ramadan, the “traditional time for girls to be cut,” sees “huge increase” in female genital mutilation

May 20, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Why is Ramadan, the month in which Muslims redouble their efforts to please Allah, the “traditional time for girls to be cut”? Reuters shows no curiosity about this. The answer is because female genital mutilation has justification in Islamic law, and Islamic law is considered divine law, superseding all human law. This story repeats the […]

Sudan criminalizes female genital mutilation, but this move is unlikely to end the practice

May 4, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Why is this unlikely to end the practice of female genital mutilation in Sudan? Because female genital mutilation has justification in Islamic law, and Islamic law is considered divine law, superseding all human law. This story repeats the usual establishment media line: “People in countries where FGM is still common attempt to link it to […]

Egypt: Survey shows that women approve of female genital mutilation more than men do

Mar 27, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

The likely explanation for this is that female genital mutilation has justification in Islamic law. This story repeats the usual establishment media line: “People in countries where FGM is still common attempt to link it to religion, but the practice has nothing to do with any faith and predates both Christianity and Islam. It has […]

Egypt: Doctors start campaign against FGM, objector says “It is a religious thing. Do you want to change religion?”

Feb 17, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

“It is a religious thing. Do you want to change religion?” said metro user Ibrahim Hassan in response to the “White Coats” campaign. “You only listen to what the West is saying.” Establishment media treatments of female genital mutilation routinely insist that it has nothing to do with Islam, but actually FGM is mandated in […]

Germany: doctor warns female genital mutilation on the rise because of mass Muslim migration

Feb 10, 2020 3:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

German leaders seem to think that the effects of years of religious and cultural indoctrination magically disappear once migrants arrive at a Western border. What’s happening in Germany is happening (in various degrees) in every Western country that supports mass migration. Jihad Watch reported less than a week and a half ago from Ireland: “An […]

Egypt: Girl, 12, dies after undergoing female genital mutilation

Feb 4, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer

FGM is mandated in Islamic law: “Circumcision is obligatory (for every male and female) (by cutting off the piece of skin on the glans of the penis of the male, but circumcision of the female is by cutting out the bazr ‘clitoris’ [this is called khufaadh ‘female circumcision’]).” — Umdat al-Salik e4.3, translated by Mark […]

Ireland: Migrant parents convicted for “appalling act of cruelty” in first female genital mutilation case

“An African couple in Dublin has been convicted of having female genital mutilation (FGM) performed on their 21-month-old daughter, in the first such case in the Republic of Ireland.” Bravo to Judge Elma Sheahan, who stated that “the child suffered an “appalling act of cruelty” in the “most egregious breach of trust by those presumed […]

Ireland: Court awards $8,265 to Muslim prof who says he was fired for defending female genital mutilation

Sep 18, 2019 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Ali Selim apologized and condemned female genital mutilation, and claimed (where have we heard this before?) that “his comments had been misrepresented.” But what if Ali Selim had said on RTÉ that the root causes of Islamic terrorism were in the Qur’an and Hadith, and that Islam teaches warfare against and subjugation of unbelievers? Even […]

Scotland: Muslims scream ‘racism’ over new law to stop female genital mutilation

Sep 15, 2019 12:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

In an absurd accusation: A law to tackle female genital mutilation is racially motivated because it excludes intimate piercings and cosmetic surgery, black and Muslim campaigners have claimed. Any challenge to the abusive practices that are sanctioned in Islam comes with the inevitable parroting of accusations about racism and “Islamophobia.” In Reliance of the Traveller […]

Tennessee Senator Marsha Blackburn introduces federal bill to criminalize female genital mutilation

Aug 15, 2019 3:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

A Tennessee Senator, Marsha Blackburn, has introduced a federal bill that would criminalize female genital mutilation (FGM). It’s about time this law was introduced at the federal level and laws strengthened to aid the growing number of girls who are being abused by this procedure. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, […]

Ilhan Omar berates Muslim questioner for asking her to condemn female genital mutilation

Jul 24, 2019 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer

She decried what she called “assumptions about what our value basis might be because of where we might come from, and who we pray to.” That’s all very well, and Omar did support a bill in the Minnesota House making female genital mutilation a felony. But in light of that, how hard would it have […]

UK: 113 cases of female genital mutilation reported to police in Birmingham, no prosecutions

Apr 8, 2019 4:00 pm By Joshua Winston

The West Midlands in the UK is a small section of England that has Birmingham at its centre. Birmingham as a city is unrecognisable as British, due to the high volume of Muslims residing there. It is also the city in which Muslims are currently protesting (still) against the teaching of LGBT studies in the […]
