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 […]

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 […]

UK: Stabbing in mosque blamed on ‘Islamophobia’ was actually committed by Muslim who wants to memorize Qur’an

Nov 19, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 31 Comments

Incidents of “Islamophobia” are so thin on the ground in reality that they have to be invented. As you can see from the Huffington Post story from February, the media and the mosque leaders did their best to paint this incident as a manifestation of that phantom crime, but reality proved to be disturbingly intrusive. […]

Turkey seeks extradition from Russia of man who desecrated Qur’an

Nov 19, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer 26 Comments

The Turks are irked, but the Russians should tell them that Russia is not a Sharia state and does not adhere to Sharia blasphemy laws, and that therefore Ibrahim Atabi will not be extradited. Will the Russians do this? Or allow realpolitik to guide their considerations? “Turkey Seeks Extradition of Man Who Desecrated Quran,” International […]

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 […]

India: Muslim kidnaps and rapes 14-year-old Hindu girl, forces her to read Qur’an and Islamic prayers

Nov 17, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer 12 Comments

This is not the first time this sort of thing has happened: a survivor of a Muslim rape gang in the UK has previously said that her rapists would quote Quran to her, and believed their actions justified by Islam. Thus it came as no surprise when Muslim migrants in France raped a girl and […]

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. […]

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 […]

Russia: Ulema bans Muslim men from marrying non-Muslim women unless children are raised Muslim

Nov 14, 2020 1:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 22 Comments

Islam has specific laws on marriage: It is forbidden for a Muslim woman to marry a non-Muslim man, but a Muslim man can indeed marry a non-Muslim woman from the “People of the Book” — a Christian or a Jew. Sunni and Shia marital law allows Muslim men (in accord with Qur’an 4:3) to be […]

Bangladesh: Muslims lynch man, burn his body, riot, assault police over rumor that he desecrated Qur’an

The fully multicultural United States that will be brought about by the coming migrant influx will be a wonderful, beautiful place to live in. “Murder of Jewel: Four more suspects held,” by S Dilip Roy, Daily Star, November 9, 2020: Police yesterday arrested four more suspects on charges of lynching and setting fire to Shahidunnabi […]

Muslim author: ‘It is mistakenly believed that Islam prescribes capital punishment for those who commit blasphemy’

Nov 10, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer 14 Comments

These presentations to Western non-Muslims about how Islam really doesn’t sanction whatever abominable behavior was just committed in the name of Islam are uniformly dishonest, and designed to foster complacency in readers. Islam mandates death for non-Muslim subjects of the Islamic state who mention “something impermissible about Allah, the Prophet (Allah bless him and give […]

Sweden: Police try to stop people from burning Qur’an in honor of teacher beheaded over Muhammad cartoon

Oct 28, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 56 Comments

The two policemen who tried to snatch the Qur’an away from the burner said that they were trying to “keep order in the square.” Would they have been so anxious to do so if the man had been trying to burn a Bible? Or is this yet another example of Western authorities bowing to violent […]

Video: FBI warns David Wood of jihadists’ calls to murder him for eating Qur’an pages

Oct 25, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer 56 Comments

In Pakistan, a man was recently sentenced to life in prison for desecrating the Qur’an, and it would be no surprise at all if he were killed in prison. In Sweden, Muslims recently rioted over the burning of the Qur’an. A Tunisian woman fled for her life to Germany after she was sentenced to prison […]

India: ‘Quran Circle’ recruited Muslims to join the Islamic State in Syria

Oct 15, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 10 Comments

We are constantly told that the Qur’an teaches peace, tolerance, and magnanimity, and that jihad terrorists don’t know what is in it and don’t care, as they are motivated by other factors. Yet again and again we see some Muslims grow more devout in their observance of Islam and then become jihad terrorists. Here is […]

“It is still difficult to understand the motives of the man.” Yes, because denial and willful ignorance are all-pervasive today. “Knife attack in Montreal-North | ‘Many heard the suspect cry out to Allah!,’” translated from “Attaque au couteau à Montréal-Nord | ‘Plusieurs ont entendu le suspect crier Allah!,’” 98.5 Montréal, October 6, 2020 (thanks to […]

Pakistan: Man gets life in prison for desecrating Qur’an

Sep 21, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 30 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 […]

Palestinian Authority distributes list of Qur’an verses to show Islamic imperative to reject peace with Israel

Sep 18, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer 20 Comments

As I explain in detail in The Palestinian Delusion, the “Palestinian” conflict with Israel is based on Islamic imperatives, the one aspect of the conflict that all mainstream analysts discount or ignore altogether. Accordingly, it is no surprise at all that the “Palestinians” would be trying to marshal opposition to the peace deals, which are […]

Danish Stram Kurs party planning massive anti-Islamization weekend demonstrations in Sweden

Sep 11, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 48 Comments

Sweden has been plagued with high crime, no-go zones, a massive increase in rapes and the like, largely due to mass Muslim migration, and now: Danish right-wing party Stram Kurs is set to stir up tensions by holding fresh anti-Islam protests in neighbouring Sweden this weekend. The party has announced plans for new demonstrations in […]
