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

UK: Former Home Secretary says ‘Islamist ideology’ is ‘a twisted version of the great religion of Islam’

Dec 3, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 54 Comments

Can Sajid Javid explain exactly how “Islamist ideology” twists the religion of Islam? This point is asserted thousands of times by all the learned analysts and politicians in the West, yet it is never substantiated or explained. Javid also indulges in Britain’s fashionable moral equivalence when he claims that “Islamist extremists have an almost symbiotic […]

New ‘study’ purports to prove that ‘far-right terrorism’ is ‘bigger threat to West than Islamic State’

Nov 27, 2020 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer 30 Comments

The Institute of Economics and Peace says that its “research is used extensively by governments, academic institutions, think tanks, non‑governmental organisations and by intergovernmental institutions such as the OECD, The Commonwealth Secretariat, the World Bank and the United Nations.” Just so you know where it’s coming from. In any case, note the sleight of hand […]

Sam Harris Declares ‘Osama bin Laden is Far Less Reprehensible than Trump’

Nov 4, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 26 Comments

My latest in PJ Media: The Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is cresting as the election approaches. In one of the most reprehensible statements to come from the Left in this Year of the Left Behaving Reprehensibly was spoken on Friday by the famous atheist Sam Harris, who claims to be a “rationalist.” During an episode […]

Boston Globe columnist likens Trump supporters to ISIS

See the difference? Me neither. pic.twitter.com/vRkGJOoyZ9 — Renée Graham 🏳️‍🌈 (@reneeygraham) October 31, 2020 I could begin to enumerate all the differences — the beheading of captives, the sex slaves, the jihad massacres, the commodification women and institutionalization of second-class status for them, and so much more, but that would be to act as if […]

Sam Harris: ‘Osama bin Laden is far more understandable to me and far less reprehensible than Trump’

Oct 31, 2020 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer 95 Comments

Sam Harris is a famous atheist and a self-professed “rationalist,” but here he demonstrates that the Left’s hatred for Trump can race far beyond all the bounds of rationality and become cultlike in its perfervid intensity. Sam Harris has spoken critically about Islamic jihad violence in the past, but he allowed himself to be intimidated […]

Sweden: Teacher says violent attacks on free speech ‘can happen here too,’ from ‘Islamists or right-wing extremists’

Oct 23, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 24 Comments

When did “right-wing extremists,” who in reality are vanishingly few in number, much smaller than their international media presence, ever assaulted or murdered anyone for exercising the freedom of speech? But it is part of remaining within the bounds of acceptable public discourse today to maintain an equivalence between Islamic jihadis and these “extremists,” however […]

UK: Days after massacre by Libyan who wanted to join ISIS, counterterror top dog goes on BBC re “right-wing threat”

Jun 23, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Just as Richard Kemp was saying, the British government is desperate to appease Muslims by pretending that there is a “far-right” terror threat equivalent to the jihad terror threat. And even just after the murder of three people by a man who is “believed to have been on the radar of MI5 because of a tip-off […]

Norway: Leftist MP says “There are extreme Muslim beliefs but there are Christian sects that refuse gender equality”

Apr 20, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Hege Storhaug’s questions below are on-point. Giske would do well to ponder them. But he won’t. He is the sort who will be congratulating himself on never having been “racist” as the jihadi blade starts slicing through his neck. “Norwegian leftist MP: There is as much extremism in churches as in mosques,” Voice of Europe, […]

18 Years After 9/11, Jim Carrey Warns Us of the Threat of…Mitch McConnell

Sep 11, 2019 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

A sober and trustworthy commentator on political issues speaks. My latest at FrontPage: No one in the world, or at least no sane person, thinks that comedian and actor Jim Carrey is a sober and trustworthy commentator on political issues, but since he presents himself as one, like so many other reflexively Leftist entertainers today, […]

Jim Carrey: “What Osama bin Laden did to us was terrible but he doesn’t hold a candle to Mitch McConnell”

Sep 6, 2019 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

This is the kind of derangement that results from believing the people who tell you that there is no jihad threat, that the real problems confronting America today are “white supremacism” and “Islamophobia.” Big Lies breed big idiocy, and big complacency. “Jim Carrey: Osama Bin Laden ‘Doesn’t Hold A Candle To Mitch McConnell,’” by Ashe […]

Ilhan Omar Falsely Claims That ‘White Men’ Are Greater Threat Than Jihadis

Aug 19, 2019 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer

The new “White Man’s Burden.” My article in PJ Media: The famously winsome and charming Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), in a 2018 interview that recently resurfaced, fed the fires of the “white supremacist terror” hysteria when she asserted that “our country [no, not Somalia] should be more fearful of white men across our country because […]

Nigeria’s Vice President urges Muslims and Christians to unite against “radical Islamist terrorism”

Jul 8, 2019 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

“According to him, radical Islamic terrorism ‘is an evil that must be seen as the common enemy of all faiths, including Islam. As the president said, and I paraphrase, anyone who says Allahu Akbar and goes on to kill is either insane or dangerously ignorant of the tenets of Islam.’” Ignorant of which tenets? We […]

Democrat Senator Tim Kaine introduces bill to combat “undeniable threat” of white supremacy, ignores jihad

Mar 30, 2019 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Another Democrat trying to diminish the glaring Islamic anti-semitism in his own party and also detract from the seriousness and dangers of the highly threatening and vast global jihad. Tim Kaine asserts that “the rise of white supremacy is an undeniable threat to the safety of our communities,” and “as the threat of violent white […]

Hamas-linked CAIR op decries “double standard” in opposition to jihad in light of white supremacism

Mar 27, 2019 12:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

“For too long, terror attacks have been depicted as a uniquely Muslim problem, with acts of violence described as ‘terrorist only when it applies to Muslims,’ said Abbas Barzegar of the Council on American Islamic Relations. He works on documenting and combating anti-Muslim bigotry and Islamophobia.” This is not true. Terrorism is not uniquely depicted […]

“The number of far-right terror cases the authorities are faced with is ‘absolutely dwarfed’ by the number of cases related to radical Islam, according to Britain’s Security Service, better known as MI5.” No matter how many lies and deceptions the establishment media and along with far Leftist politicians and leaders try to tell the public, […]

Leftists seem intent on ensuring that as many jihad terrorists as possible enter Western countries. “Anne Frank center compares Jews fleeing Nazis to Islamic State terrorists,” by Benjamin Weinthal, Jerusalem Post, March 10, 2019: The Anne Frank Educational Center in the German city of Frankfurt is under intense fire for comparing Jews during the Holocaust […]
