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 […]

Swamp Rat Boasts of How He Lied to Trump to Defy Syria Withdrawal Orders

Nov 18, 2020 9:00 pm By Robert Spencer 9 Comments

Who elected Jim Jeffrey? Right: no one. My latest in FrontPage: Robert Spencer is a Shillman Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center. DefenseOne reported Thursday that Jim Jeffrey, President Trump’s former special envoy for Syria, who got that job despite the fact that in 2016 he was a signer of “the now-infamous ‘Never Trump’ […]

Outgoing US envoy to Syria admits to lying to Trump in order to prevent withdrawal of US troops from Syria

Nov 14, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer 26 Comments

Who elected this clown? Who gave him the authority to determine United States policy toward Syria? In Rating America’s Presidents, I discuss how Trump has been obstructed at every turn by a coterie of unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats who have arrogated power to themselves and represent the political, military, and media establishment. This oligarchy has decided […]

Trump suspended entry of migrants from Syria, Somalia, and Yemen over terror risk, Biden could admit 125,000

Nov 10, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 44 Comments

What could possibly go wrong? Celebrate diversity, you greasy Islamophobe! “US Cuts Refugee Admissions, Creating Doubt for Tens of Thousands of Applicants,” by Aline Barros, VOA, November 6, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): The United States will admit a maximum of 15,000 refugees for fiscal 2021, an all-time low, according to a notice […]

France: Muslim who beheaded teacher over Muhammad cartoon told jihad contact in Syria he had ‘avenged the Prophet’

Oct 25, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer 29 Comments

Abdullakh Anzorov moved to France when he was six. He is unlikely to have brought with him the idea that murder is an appropriate response to a cartoon of Muhammad. He was almost certainly taught that in France. Who taught him this? Have his parents been investigated? Has his mosque been investigated? Why not? “French […]

France: 29 Muslims arrested in connection with jihad terror financing scheme

Oct 2, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 10 Comments

European Union countries, particularly open door, globalist ones, are in serious risk of completely losing control of jihadis and those who aid and abet them in their midst. The consequences of the EU’s suicidal immigration policy will be increasingly costly on many fronts for decades to come. Still, the stubborn, reckless EU leaders are busy […]

Syria: Brother of Women’s Protection Units fighter murders her because she ‘brought shame and dishonor upon family’

Sep 20, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer 16 Comments

An indelible detail leaps out from this report: “In the region, there is a history of men being accused of killing women or girls perceived to have brought shame to a family or tribe being given token sentences, or in other cases, escaping justice entirely.” Now, why is that? Her brother said he killed her […]

Syria: Muslims demand Christian convert teacher turn over his school to them, arrest him for apostasy

Aug 18, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

“Mr Muhammad, who works as an English teacher and headmaster, refused the group’s orders to hand his school building over to them so they could turn it into an Islamic school.” That was an unconscionable display of effrontery from a man who, as far as the Muslims of Failaq al-Sham were concerned, should have submitted […]

Syrian Government Enraged That Kurds Intend to Sell Kurdish Oil

Aug 9, 2020 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

Northeastern Syria is inhabited – and has been for many centuries – by the Kurdish people. That territory also happens to be the oil-bearing part of Syria, currently held by local Kurdish forces of the YPG (People’s Protection Units), and by the American troops still in Syria, as President Trump said, to “guard the oil.” […]

Turkey deploys 27,000 jihadis from Syria in Libya

Aug 8, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

More evidence of Turkey’s growing regional adventurism, which accords with Erdogan’s increasingly obvious desire to restore the Ottoman caliphate, and its embrace of jihadis and jihad activity. “Turkey Deployed 27,000 Syrian Militants, Jihadists In Libya: Monitoring Group,” Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, August 1, 2020 (thanks to Henry): Turkey has been deploying Syrian militants and […]

Assad and the Ruination of Syria

Aug 7, 2020 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

In the tenth year of the Syrian Civil War, Bashar al-Assad continues to rule, against all the odds. He’s supported by Iran, by Hezbollah, by Russia. Meanwhile the opposition to him is splintered; there are secular liberals and Islamic fundamentalists, and everything in between, fighting to overthrow his rule but agreeing on little else. Assad […]

Antifa members from US went to Syria to fight alongside Kurdish Marxist groups

Aug 7, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

Communism is an internationalist movement, so this comes as no surprise. It would be illuminating to know what other training Antifa has received, who are its funding sources, and whether it has any connection, in light of the increasingly manifest Leftist-Islamic alliance, with jihad groups. Once they’re in Syria, it wouldn’t be hard to make […]

Turkey ‘expanding its footprint across the Arab world, using force more than diplomacy’

Aug 1, 2020 1:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

Turkey’s Islamic supremacist President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is increasingly forthright regarding his dreams of Ottoman revival, and has been working to broaden Turkey’s influence. Yet few are paying adequate attention to the aggressive expansion and influence of this country, which is a member of NATO. It should long ago have been expelled, given its increasingly […]

Syrian Regime Emphasizes Its Protection of Christians By Building Miniature Hagia Sophia

Aug 1, 2020 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

The story is here: The Syrian regime under President Bashar Al-Assad has announced that it will build a miniature replica of the Hagia Sophia, in opposition to the Turkish government’s reversion of the building from a museum into a mosque. “The construction of this mini Hagia Sophia, taking place in the central province of Hama, […]

In slap at Turkey, Syrian government to build replica of Hagia Sophia with help from Russia

Jul 31, 2020 3:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

This move further highlights the new formations of strategic alliances in the Middle East. It is sure to infuriate and humiliate Turkey, which has been bursting with pride over its new “conquest” of Hagia Sophia, which was first built in 537 as a Christian cathedral. The reconversion of this Christian jewel into a mosque grieved […]

Canada: Muslim who told ISIS he had ‘basic’ knowledge of Sharia gets terrorism charges after 7-year investigation

Jul 24, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Some hopeful news out of Canada. But it took 7 long years to investigate before charges were laid against Hussein Sobhe Borhot. The brutal activities of jihadists in Syria, particularly those of the Islamic State — from its treatment of sex slaves to beheadings and wanton murder — makes it urgent that these people be […]

Syria: Yazidis still negotiating return of over 1,000 kidnapped women and children held by Muslims

Jul 11, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

“If IS has been militarily eradicated who is hiding the more than 1,000 Yazidis? Who are they being bought from? And why are those traders not being investigated?” Good questions. Yet no answers appear to be forthcoming. Would answering them be “Islamophobic”? Hostage-taking is sanctioned in Islamic law and subject to particular rules: “As for the captives, the […]

Kuwaiti pol: Covid-19 is “plan prepared by Zionist Freemasons, Rothschilds, and Rockefellers”

Jun 30, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer

Of course. What else could it be? The Qur’an depicts the Jews as inveterately evil and bent on destroying the well-being of the Muslims. The Jews in the Qur’an are called the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); they fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); they […]

Russian air force unleashes “powerful attack” against anti-Assad jihadists bordering Turkey

Jun 10, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

The defense against jihad terror in the West has been long stymied by Leftists. The red-green axis has served to proliferate Islamization across the West, but it is an alliance of convenience. And while Iran, Turkey, Russia and China are celebrating the so-called collapse of the United States due to the communist-rooted Black Lives Matter/Antifa […]

The Islamic Republic of Iran is Pulling Out of Syria

May 9, 2020 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

The Israeli news site Walla has some unexpected good news about Syria. From The Algemeiner: “Under the pressure of continuing IAF air strikes, Iran is beginning to draw down its military presence in Syria, unnamed Israeli security officials were quoted as saying on May 4. Iran’s economy is in free fall. It cannot spend nearly […]
