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

Tanzania: Moderate Sufis recruiting youths to join jihad terror cells in Mozambique

Dec 2, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 11 Comments

Contrary to popular belief, the Sufis do not reject violent jihad. Their towering figure, al-Ghazali, taught it, and Sufis have been at the vanguard of the Chechen jihad. Hasan al-Banna, founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, which in turn gave birth to Hamas and Al-Qaeda, was strongly influenced by Sufism. In 2009, Iraqi Sufis meant with […]

Muslims from Mozambique screaming ‘Allahu akbar’ cross into Tanzania, behead 20 people

Oct 25, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 20 Comments

The target was a “village west of Mnazi Bay gas field and near Mtwara oil and gas base.” Mtwara is “a major oil and gas logistics base in the south” of Tanzania. This Islamic State outpost in Mozambique will continue to grow and spread and to carry out jihad attacks wherever it can until it […]

Tanzania’s National Assembly Speaker: “Commendable” to move embassy, “several African countries” will follow

Dec 6, 2017 9:20 am By Robert Spencer

In an age when deceit and falsehood are taken for granted as axiomatic and immovable, all it takes is one man or woman strong enough to speak the truth and stand for it, and the house of cards of lies and disinformation starts to tumble down. When Ronald Reagan said that the Soviet Union was […]

Zanzibar: “We rounded them up because we suspect they were engaged in homosexuality”

Sep 18, 2017 4:48 am By Robert Spencer

The Qur’an contains numerous condemnations of homosexual activity: “And [We had sent] Lot when he said to his people, ‘Do you commit such immorality as no one has preceded you with from among the worlds? Indeed, you approach men with desire, instead of women. Rather, you are a transgressing people.’…And We rained upon them a […]

Tanzania: Muslims torch three churches

Sep 26, 2015 7:19 pm By Robert Spencer

At Ground Zero yesterday, Pope Francis bemoaned “the powerlessness we feel when we see injustice, the inability to solve our differences, to dialogue.” But when it comes to Islamic supremacists and jihadists, they have no interest in genuine dialogue. They have no interest in reaching some negotiated compromise. As far as they’re concerned, Allah has […]

New York: Muslim pleads guilty to involvement in 1998 US embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania

Sep 19, 2014 1:16 pm By Robert Spencer

But the judge didn’t accept the plea agreement, “saying he had concerns that Bary had previously faced hundreds of charges, some of which carried a mandatory life sentence.” In other words, Adel Abdul Bary may have been involved in much worse. “Judge concerned over U.S. embassy bombing case guilty plea,” by Joseph Ax and Nate […]

Tanzania: Muslim cleric says “there is a thick line between Islam and terrorism”

Aug 8, 2014 1:41 pm By Robert Spencer

The problem is that Islamic terrorists keep coloring outside the lines. The problem with these flat assertions — and there are so very many of them from Muslim spokesmen — is that they never address the Islamic texts and teachings that Islamic terrorists use to justify their actions and make recruits. And so those Islamic […]

Muslim children taught how to stab Infidels to death at Tanzania mosque

Nov 20, 2013 2:04 pm By Robert Spencer

Tanzania: Muslim mobs attack two Christian pastors, stabbing one

Jun 19, 2013 10:38 am By Robert Spencer

The police were indifferent: “I cannot protect every pastor!” They’re either frightened of the Muslims themselves, or believe that what they’re doing is the work of Allah. “Persecuted Pastors Attacked, Stabbed in Tanzania,” from The Voice of the Martyrs, June 14 (thanks to Abel): The persecution of Christians in Tanzania continues. Two pastors have recently […]

#MyJihad in Tanzania: Muslims murder two Christians, deny Christians right to sell non-halal meat

Apr 11, 2013 2:47 pm By Robert Spencer

“One senior Christian leader in Tanzania told Barnabas Aid that the country could be totally Islamised in five to ten years if the Church does not make a decisive response.” How’s that “dialogue” working out for you, Bishop? “Two Christians killed in latest violence over meat slaughter in Tanzania,” from Barnabas Aid, April 8 (thanks […]

Raymond Ibrahim: Muslims Behead Another Christian Pastor

Feb 26, 2013 5:31 pm By Raymond Ibrahim

Over at Gatestone Institute (via RaymondIbrahim.com), I discuss the “business-envy” jihad: A Christian pastor was recently slaughtered in the Muslim-majority African nation of Tanzania. While butchering Christian minorities is becoming increasingly common in that part of the Muslim world, the context for this latest slaughter is somewhat different than the usual forms of Christian persecution […]

#MyJihad in Tanzania: Muslim cleric tells converts to bury their Christian parents as if they were dead dogs

Jan 7, 2013 12:43 pm By Robert Spencer

Once again we see that the real “hate” doesn’t come from those trying to resist Islamic supremacism, but from those who are propagating it. “Muslim clerics warned against hate sermons,” from The Citizen, January 7 (thanks to Twostellas): Muslim clerics have been warned against sermons that provoke religious tensions. The warning was given here yesterday […]

Tanzania’s Vice President warns Muslim clerics to cut out the hate speech

Oct 28, 2012 2:43 pm By Robert Spencer

Dr Mohamed Gharib Bilal has just become the first and only national leader in any country to acknowledge publicly that some Muslim clerics engage in hate speech and justify it using the Qur’an. In the West the focus is on the false claim that those trying to resist the jihad and Islamic supremacism are the […]

Tanzania: Muslim mob riots, attacks churches, seeks to behead 14-year-old over defiled Qur’an

Oct 13, 2012 5:20 am By Robert Spencer

Will anyone denounce this madness? The churches had nothing to do with this. It was a… pissing contest between two adolescent boys. And the boy’s mother offered to replace the book. But Muslims seem to be seizing any excuse to run amok, while the world stands by and discusses outlawing criticism of Islam. “Chaos hits […]
