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

Congo: ‘They tried to force some Christians to convert to Islam’ — Muslims raid Christian villages, murder 20

Dec 2, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer 11 Comments

A hadith depicts Muhammad saying: “Fight against those who disbelieve in Allah. Make a holy war…When you meet your enemies who are polytheists, invite them to three courses of action. If they respond to any one of these you also accept it and withhold yourself from doing them any harm. Invite them to (accept) Islam; […]

Austria: Vienna jihad murderer wanted to commit jihad massacre at Catholic youth group, couldn’t get into building

Dec 1, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 10 Comments

Nothing that a bit of “dialogue,” won’t fix, eh, Pope Francis? “Terrorist had his sights set on Catholic youth group,” translated from “Terrorist hatte katholische Jungschar im Visier,” Kronen Zeitung, November 27, 2020 (thanks to Gates of Vienna): The background to the attack warning on local churches is frightening: it was issued because the IS […]

Nigeria: Muslims murder seven Christians, two days after murdering a pastor

Dec 1, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer 10 Comments

Time for another Muslim cleric in Nigeria to write another lengthy explanation of how Islam is a religion of peace. “Christians Killed in Central and Southwestern Nigeria,” Morning Star News, November 29, 2020: JOS, Nigeria (Morning Star News) – Fulani herdsmen attacks on predominantly Christian communities in Kaduna state on Saturday night and Sunday morning […]

Palestinian Christians caught between growing Islamic movements and inept Palestinian Authority

Nov 29, 2020 12:00 pm By Samir A. Zedan 10 Comments

The Palestinian Authority’s recent decision to restore security coordination with Israel, which was suspended since last May, did not stem from its concern for the Israeli security, nor from its desire to live up to the responsibilities entrusted in it since its establishment in 1994. Mahmoud Abbas, known for his hesitation and inability to make […]

Uganda: Muslim relatives of a former sheikh who refused to renounce Christ kill his 6-year-old son

Nov 29, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 10 Comments

They were trying to kill Emmanuel Hamuzah, who converted from Islam to Christianity. In the melee, they killed his six-year-old son. They will think they are righteous in doing this because the death penalty for apostasy is part of Islamic law. It’s based on the Qur’an: “They wish you would disbelieve as they disbelieved so […]

Indonesia: Muslims raid village, murder four Christians, burn church and six Christian homes

Nov 28, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 23 Comments

Here at Jihad Watch we have posted innumerable stories like this one over the years, and never once have posted a story about Christians raiding a Muslim village, killing Muslims and burning down a mosque. That would never happen and should never happen. But it is evidence of the prevailing madness in the world today […]

Turkey: Will the Abuses against Historic Churches Ever End?

Nov 26, 2020 11:00 am By Uzay Bulut 22 Comments

“Turkey has again confused faith tourism and religious freedom in the announcement that the Imera Monastery has been partially restored,” reported International Christian Concern (ICC) on November 19. “It is acknowledged that the Imera Monastery is an important Christian site in the eastern Black Sea region, but the fact that Christians in this area suffered […]

Bangladesh: Muslims assault Catholics, smash windows and destroy books and other religious items in the church

Here again, just imagine if the roles were reversed, which would not happen and should not happen. The media would never let you hear the end of it. But of this they will take no notice. Nor will Pope Francis. It might harm his pointless, fruitless, and misguided “dialogue.” “Bangladeshi Catholics Attacked, Church Demolished,” by […]

Islamic Republic of Iran: Convert from Islam to Christianity gets 80 lashes for drinking communion wine

Nov 23, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 18 Comments

Zaman Fadaei could have been executed, as he is a convert from Islam, and the death penalty for apostasy is part of Islamic law. It’s based on the Qur’an: “They wish you would disbelieve as they disbelieved so you would be alike. So do not take from among them allies until they emigrate for the […]

Hungary’s FM praises Trump for raising issue of persecuted Christians to international political agenda

Nov 21, 2020 8:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 8 Comments

In 2017, Mike Pence promised that the U.S. would defend Christians who were being slaughtered by the Islamic State in the Middle East. This past Wednesday, Fox News published an article about persecution of Christians by Muslims in Africa: Nigeria’s Christians become target of genocide as international community remains silent: advocates. The genocide is worsening: […]

Uganda: Muslims murder pastor, say he ‘ought to die for using the Koran and saying Allah is not God but an evil god’

Nov 14, 2020 3:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 26 Comments

The well-known 64 year-old Ugandan radio preacher and pastor, David Omara, was beaten to death in an ambush by six offended Muslims, thereby proving the point that he was making on his radio broadcast. Yet again, the message is that non-Muslims must beware of openly offending Muslims. The consequences (“sentence”) for doing so do not […]

Pakistan: Muslim neighbors murder Christian woman and her son in front of their home

Nov 14, 2020 2:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 28 Comments

The plight of Christians suffering from persecution by Muslims takes an uglier form when trusted neighbors are involved. The woman and her 25-year-old son were killed in front of their home. Nobody in the village helped them. For human rights activists, the fact is “a huge example of intolerance and hatred that spreads against Christians”, […]

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 […]

Supreme Council for Sharia in Nigeria accuses UK, US, Canada and others of bias against Nigerian Muslims

Nov 7, 2020 1:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 18 Comments

By now, it is obvious (at least to anyone who is paying attention) how Islamic supremacists manipulate the word “Islamophobia” to subvert free societies. The word is employed skillfully by the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, and particularly promulgated by Pakistan and Turkey. Those who would call out the human rights abuses that are committed in […]

Nigeria: Muslims enter Christian village, start shooting, murder 12 people, kidnap women and children

Nov 5, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 21 Comments

If the international media took any notice of this at all, which they will not do because it doesn’t fit their global narrative of Christian oppressors and Muslim victims, it would take the form of hand-wringing articles about “Islamophobia” in Nigeria. “Islamist Militants Kill, Kidnap Christians in Northeast Nigeria,” Morning Star News, November 4, 2020: […]

Mother of Muslim who murdered three: He ‘did start praying and taking his religion more seriously a few months ago’

Nov 3, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer 11 Comments

Yet again we see the correlation between a turn to devout observance of Islam and involvement in jihad terror activity. Not all devout Muslims are jihad terrorists, but all jihad terrorists are devout Muslims. Yet back in 2011, the Obama administration removed a sudden immersion in Islam as a sign of a possible turn to […]

Congo: Muslims murder 18 people ‘in an atrocious way,’ torch church

Oct 30, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 10 Comments

If Christians had torched a mosque, which would not happen and should not happen, there would be international headlines about it for months, if not years. But you’re likely to hear about this only here. “Suspected Islamists kill 18, torch church in east Congo,” Reuters, October 29, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): BENI […]

Archbishop of Mosul decries EU’s silence on persecuted Christians, ‘I am more afraid for Europe than I am for Iraq’

Archbishop Najeeb Michaeel Moussa of Mosul, Iraq states in this important and incisive interview that “the European Union has undoubtedly lagged behind the European peoples who have courageously mobilized to express their solidarity with the Christians of the East in general and the Christians of Iraq in particular.” He also states: “I think that the […]

Nigeria: Muslims ambush Christians, hack one of them to death with machetes

Oct 22, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 12 Comments

The international media will take no notice of this. If Christians had hacked a Muslim to death, which would never happen and should never happen, it would be international headlines for weeks. But this doesn’t fit the media narrative, and so will not be widely reported upon. “Young Christian Man Hacked to Death in North-Central […]

Pakistan: 13-year-old Christian girl kidnapped, converted to Islam, forced to marry the man who abducted her

Oct 21, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 17 Comments

These “love jihad” incidents are motivated by supremacist assumptions. The idea is that the Muslim community will always grow at the expense of the non-Muslim community. In the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, authorities generally share the same assumptions, so the family of Arzoo Masih is unlikely to get justice. Meanwhile, the international “human rights community” […]
