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

Norway: After murder of French teacher over Muhammad cartoons, teachers fear showing them in classes on free speech

Dec 1, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 54 Comments

Terrorism works. That’s why we keep seeing so much of it. If anyone ever had the guts to stand up and resist these thugs, terrorism would begin to recede. Otherwise, no. (Video thanks to David.)

Erdogan: ‘Meanness’ toward Muhammad is ‘far removed’ from ‘freedom of thought’

Nov 29, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 65 Comments

In other words, you can have freedom of thought, as long as you don’t think what he doesn’t want you to think. The West is going all-in for this Orwellian idea these days, so why not Erdogan? “Erdogan: Insulting people’s beliefs is not freedom,” TRT World, November 28, 2020: Turkish President Erdogan says those who […]

Egypt: Christian arrested for ‘insulting Islam’ on Facebook

Nov 27, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer 32 Comments

A glimpse into the future of the West. This is where the Left’s “hate speech” rhetoric is tending. We are very close to this now, far closer than most people realize, as critics of jihad terror and Sharia oppression of women and others are now routinely excoriated, vilified, demonized, deplatformed, and shunned by all decent […]

Google, Facebook and Twitter threaten to leave Pakistan over crackdown on speech offensive to Islam

Nov 26, 2020 3:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 26 Comments

The Asia Internet Coalition — which includes Google, Facebook and Twitter — is threatening to pull out of Pakistan because of new rules that would have a significant impact upon the freedom of expression. How bitterly ironic. The global tech giants, long established as enemies of the freedom of expression, are now facing the same […]

Pakistan’s Federal Minister for Human Rights: ‘Macron is doing to Muslims what the Nazis did to the Jews’

Nov 23, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer 46 Comments

Throwing them in camps? Murdering them by the millions? Nope. Just emphasizing the importance of the freedom of expression and the inappropriateness of beheading someone for offending you. But Shireen Mazari’s game, in retailing this outrageous slander, is to enflame young Pakistanis to commit acts of violence against French people and installations, and thereby compel […]

Fifteen Senators (Including Fauxcahontas and Bernie) Want Facebook to Ban ‘Anti-Muslim Hate’

Nov 22, 2020 6:00 pm By Robert Spencer 53 Comments

My latest in PJ Media: Democrats who want to browbeat (or worse) Trump supporters in Truth and Reconciliation Commissions and silence all dissent from the hard-Left’s agenda know better than to come before America and say, “We want to destroy the First Amendment and stifle the freedom of expression that is the indispensable foundation of […]

France: Teacher reports that a third of her students say ‘It is not normal to criticize Islam’

Nov 21, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 24 Comments

What do you think France will be like when these students grow up? “TESTIMONY. After Samuel Paty’s assassination, ‘a third of my students are contesting the curriculum,’” translated from “TÉMOIGNAGE. Après l’assassinat de Samuel Paty, ‘un tiers de mes élèves conteste les programmes,’” by Arnaud Bélier, Ouest-France, November 16, 2020 (thanks to Mason): A month […]

France: Macron delivers ‘charter of Republican values’ ultimatum to Muslim leaders

Nov 21, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 55 Comments

Now the world can brace for another firestorm. Insulting Islam leads to violence and that is what some Muslims will once again decide that Macron is doing. “Republican values” involve upholding the rule of law and the freedom of speech, including the freedom to offend Islam. This translates to a complete rejection of Sharia. “Republican […]

Netherlands: Muslims threaten to murder teacher over Muhammad cartoon, teacher goes into hiding

Nov 20, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 38 Comments

Education minister Arie Slob says “it is ‘completely unacceptable’ that teachers are put under pressure because they teach about the value of freedom of speech.” Slob can, however, expect a great deal more of this pressure, thanks to the Netherlands’ acceptance of mass Muslim migration. It is inevitable that among the peaceful Muslims who enter […]

Sweden: Prosecutor determines that burning the Qur’an is not a hate crime

Nov 19, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 32 Comments

Considering the Islamization of far-Left-ruled Sweden, this report is a welcome surprise. “Burning a Koran in itself is not illegal, says chamber prosecutor Sofia Syrén,” suggesting that neither is criticism or even mockery of Muhammad. Malmö isn’t simply a “multicultural” city. It has a particularly high Muslim population, as well as high rate of Muslim […]

15 Senators, including Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders, urge Facebook to block ‘anti-Muslim hate’

Nov 18, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 37 Comments

Incitement to violence against any group should always be blocked. The problem here is that Islamic advocacy groups and their allies in the West have for years claimed that any honest discussion of the motivating ideology behind jihad violence was “anti-Muslim hate.” Facebook already makes such discussion virtually impossible to find. Expect it to be […]

Macron calls New York Times hack, charges media with ‘legitimizing violence’ in coverage of France’s stance on jihad

Nov 17, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 15 Comments

Ben Smith is a vicious far-Left ideologue whose writings suggest that believes “Islamophobes” are a far greater threat than Islamic jihadis, and so it’s no surprise that he would have nettled Macron by “legitimizing” the jihad massacres in France rather than defending the freedom of expression. But Macron himself is not consistent. If France is […]

Sharia France: Danish activist arrested and deported for trying to burn Qur’an

Nov 17, 2020 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer 20 Comments

Rasmus Paludan, the French publication Marianne, tells us, is “far-right,” which means that Marianne wants its readers to despise Rasmus Paludan. But in its essentials, he was going to do nothing different from what Samuel Paty did, and Samuel Paty is now celebrated in France as a hero and martyr for the freedom of speech. […]

France: Muslims again threaten to rape and kill woman for criticizing Islam

Nov 17, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer 24 Comments

You may find Mila’s remarks crude and in poor taste, and even highly offensive. But should she be raped and killed for them? France, and the rest of the West, is going to have to choose between Sharia blasphemy laws and the freedom of expression, much as they are trying to avoid making the choice. […]

Biden Transition Official Believes the First Amendment Has a ‘Design Flaw’ — His Remedy Is to Curb Free Speech

Nov 16, 2020 7:00 pm By Robert Spencer 74 Comments

My latest in PJ Media: Richard Stengel, according to the New York Post, “is the Biden transition ‘Team Lead’ for the US Agency for Global Media, the U.S. government media empire that includes Voice of America, the Middle East Broadcasting Networks and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty.” He is also a menace to our constitutional protections […]

Muslim preacher says one who insults Muhammad ‘is to be put to the sword. We ask Allah to destroy these people.’

Nov 16, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 38 Comments

“Indeed, those who abuse Allah and His Messenger – Allah has cursed them in this world and the Hereafter and prepared for them a humiliating punishment.” That’s Qur’an 33:57. How will they be cursed in this world? A prayer to Allah to “destroy these people” is not just a request directed to the deity. The […]

France: Muslims threaten to kill Socialist mayor, Facebook says the threats don’t violate their community standards

Nov 16, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 21 Comments

A Socialist. What do you bet that Stéphane Raffali believes that Islam is a religion of peace, that “Islamophobia” is the real problem, and that “refugees” are not dangerous, but in danger, and that only “racists” oppose mass Muslim migration into France? Yet his flirting with violation of Sharia blasphemy laws by lionizing a man […]

France: 14-year-old Muslim boy tells his teacher ‘I’m going cut you like Samuel Paty’

Nov 15, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 34 Comments

The boy was released. Of course. It isn’t as if he did something serious such as burning a Qur’an. “Seine-et-Marne: a schoolboy threatens his geography-history teacher to ‘cut her like Samuel Paty,’” translated from “Seine-et-Marne : un collégien menace sa prof d’histoire-géo de la ‘découper comme Samuel Paty,’” by Sophie Bordier, Le Figaro, November 13, […]

“The Law Commission is the statutory independent body created by the Law Commissions Act 1965 to keep the law of England and Wales under review and to recommend reform where it is needed.” The reform it sees as needed now is a surrender to violent intimidation and abandonment of the freedom of expression in favor […]

Biden transition official wants speech restrictions, criminalization of burning of Qur’an

Nov 15, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer 44 Comments

I’m not in favor of the burning of any book, and I believe that people ought to read and understand the Qur’an rather than burn it. However, note that Stengel is calling for legal “guardrails” against “speech that incites hate.” If someone burns a Bible, no one cares. If someone burns a Qur’an, there are […]
