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

California Jihadi Planned to Kill People, Then Read Qur’an Until Police Arrived

Nov 28, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer 3 Comments

Not that this has anything to do with Islam. My latest in FrontPage: Yet another blow to the establishment media narrative came Wednesday. The Associated Press reported that Faisal Mohammad, who in 2015 stabbed four people in a classroom at the University of California, Merced, where he was a freshman, “planned to praise Allah while […]

New Jersey woman charged with transferring money to jihad terrorist in Syria with whom she had ‘relationship’

Nov 27, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 21 Comments

It was all for love: “The FBI affidavit alleged that Bell regularly used encrypted apps to communicate with a Nusra member with whom she had an online relationship.” “American woman charged with transferring money to Syria-based terrorists,” Reuters, November 25, 2020: U.S. federal prosecutors have charged a New Jersey woman with concealing multiple efforts to […]

South Carolina: Man converts to Islam, plots ‘Netflix-worthy’ jihad massacre

Nov 27, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 18 Comments

Where did Kristopher Sean Matthews, who is presumably a convert to Islam with a name like that, learn about his new religion? Has his mosque been investigated? Why not? Is it being assumed that he was a “lone wolf” who existed in a vacuum, with no one around him who shared his views or aspirations […]

Navy Investigation: Pensacola Jihadi Murdered People Because of the Navy’s ‘Toxic Microclimate’

Nov 23, 2020 6:00 pm By Robert Spencer 24 Comments

My latest in PJ Media: What causes jihad terror attacks? As far as the U.S. Navy is concerned, a primary cause is apparently people who say mean things. On Friday, the Navy released a 260-page investigation on the December 2019 jihad attack perpetrated by Royal Saudi Air Force 2nd Lt. Mohammed Alshamrani, in which three people […]

Navy investigation of Pensacola jihadi says he was ‘self-radicalized’ and blames Navy for being mean to him

Nov 22, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 24 Comments

“But overall, based on the facts and circumstances available during the months-long investigation into Alshamrani’s actions,’no one person or organization knew or could have known Alshamrani would attack active duty service members and civilians at Naval Aviation Schools Command,” the service determined.’” Of course not. No one could possibly have known. When he said, “I […]

California: Muslim stabbed four ‘in the name of Allah,’ planned to read Qur’an until cops arrived, then shoot them

Nov 20, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 34 Comments

The Qur’an? Didn’t Faisal Mohammad know that, as Pope Francis has told us, “authentic Islam and the proper reading of the Koran are opposed to every form of violence”? Despite the fact that Mohammad “was found to have an image of the ISIS flag, a handwritten manifesto with instructions on how to behead someone, and […]

Virginia imam: There is ‘freedom of expression to insult the Prophet, but no freedom of expression to insult Macron’

Nov 13, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 5 Comments

Brazen lies and victimology of the kind Elsayed offers here are generally accepted by Leftists, who are easily duped by those who resort to identity politics, especially stealth jihadists. Elsayed claim that “Many Christians, Jews want to turn Muslims back to being infidels like them” is based on the Qur’an: “And never will the Jews […]

Al Jazeera celebrates the end of US ‘Muslim ban’ on day one of Biden presidency

Nov 10, 2020 2:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 11 Comments

Al Jazeera has come out cheering with the headline: US ‘Muslim ban’ set to end ‘on day one’ of Biden presidency. Yet there really isn’t any “Muslim ban.” These were actually the terms of the ban, which initially covered seven countries of concern that were actually chosen by the Obama Administration. Robert Spencer has explained: […]

Portland, Oregon: Muslim migrant distributed ISIS material on stabbing and bombing techniques, is released

Nov 8, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 10 Comments

“Mothafar was released on conditions including limitations on travel and the use of electronic devices.” Was he not in a wheelchair when he “conspired with ISIS members to provide material support to ISIS”? If he was wheelchair-bound at that time, isn’t releasing him now just inviting him to go back to his Internet jihad? “Portland […]

Muslim Legal Fund of America features wife of Orlando Pulse nightclub jihad mass murderer

Oct 15, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 38 Comments

Noor Salman was the wife of Omar Mateen, who murdered 49 people in a jihad massacre that he said was for the Islamic State. The Orlando Sentinel reported on March 30, 2018 that “the foreman of the Noor Salman jury contacted the Orlando Sentinel with a statement about what the three days of deliberations were […]

US Justice Department asks Supreme Court to reinstate death penalty for Boston Marathon jihad murderer

Oct 9, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 40 Comments

Tamerlan Tsarnaev killed three people in 2011, and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is not as culpable in the Boston Marathon jihad massacre. In reality, Dzhokhar never showed any sign of being anything but a convinced and willing participant, and was defiant after the massacre, as the jail photo of him giving the finger to the camera demonstrates.

Miami: Muslim migrant father Emraan Ali and US-born son Jihad Ali charged with joining the Islamic State

Oct 4, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer 6 Comments

Apparently Jihad Ali was not raised to be a loyal, patriotic citizen of a society in which there is no established religion. Why was that? Have law enforcement officials investigated the mosque this father and son attended, in order to try to ascertain whether or not what Emraan was clearly teaching young Jihad about the […]

Boston: Muslim who plotted to behead Pamela Geller gets one of his convictions overturned, gets even longer sentence

Oct 3, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 22 Comments

Here is a rare and refreshing instance in which lawyerly attempts to aid a jihadi in escaping the consequences of his actions backfires, and results in justice being more, not less, properly served. It was bad enough that Wright’s fellow would-be jihad murderer, Nicholas Rovinski, was recently granted a “compassionate release.” As always, there is […]

My latest in PJ Media: “Let it be clear, I am against America.

Sep 25, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer 15 Comments

All the major Muslim organizations in the U.S. condemn the Islamic State (ISIS). So why, when Jaylyn Molina converted to Islam, did he fall prey to its supposedly twisted and hijacked understanding of Islam? Why wasn’t the peaceful, tolerant, true Islam that everyone assumes converts to Islam are taught in mosques in the U.S. able […]

Pakistan: Supreme Court halts extradition to US of Muslim accused of planning jihad massacres in NYC

Pakistan is neither a friend nor an ally of the United States. The sham alliance should have been ended long ago, and should be ended now. “Pakistan court halts terror suspect’s extradition to US,” by Aamir Latif, AA, September 21, 2020 (thanks to Henry): Pakistan’s Supreme Court on Monday halted the extradition to the US […]

Muslim migrant to US ‘found religion’ and joined ISIS: ‘I wanted to live in an Islamic country’

Sep 20, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer 7 Comments

The conventional wisdom, hawked by mainstream counterterror analysts such as the appalling Max Abrahms, is that the Islamic State has nothing to do with genuine Islam, which Islamic jihadis generally know little to nothing about. Yet again and again we see jihadis themselves explaining that they turned to jihad after becoming devout in their observance […]

How an Islamic Terror Sheikh Ended Up Selling Meth in Orange County

Sep 12, 2020 5:00 pm By Daniel Greenfield 21 Comments

And why the authorities let it happen. The end of what law enforcement had called the most imminent Islamic terrorist plot since September 11 came when Gregory Vernon Patterson left his cell phone behind at a gas station. Patterson and his roommate, Levar Haley Washington, had joined Jamiyyat Ul-Islam Is-Saheeh, a prison Islamic terror group, […]

Islamic State hails 9/11 as ‘pivotal moment for Islam’

Sep 11, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 55 Comments

Indeed it was, for nineteen years after 9/11, anyone who dares note that there was any Islamic aspect to the 9/11 attacks is smeared, defamed, demonized, and marginalized. Never mind that the 9/11 hijackers and plotters repeatedly referred to Islam in explaining and justifying the attacks. Khalid Shaikh Mohammed and the other 9/11 plotters several […]

Remembering 9/11 in a Woke Year

Sep 11, 2020 9:00 am By Daniel Greenfield 28 Comments

What do the heroes of September 11 mean in a year of hating police officers? The 19th anniversary of 9/11 has been the nation’s darkest in this dreaded cycle. The Black Lives Matter riots that attacked the statues of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Christopher Columbus, and Abraham Lincoln, did not spare 9/11 memorials. The statue […]
