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

Tunisia: Educated, affluent Muslims joining Islamic State

By

Everyone knows that poverty causes terrorism, and that therefore giving money to Muslim states will quell terrorism. All the learned analysts say that.

Tunisia: Muslim screaming “The nation of Muhammad returns for vengeance” stabs Jew, is released

He was released after a Muslim mob arrived at the police station and threatened to burn it down.

The freedom of speech is our fundamental bulwark against tyranny. And it is under assault by entities in the U.S. such as the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and Reza Aslan’s Aslan Media, which, like the Tunisian government here, move quickly to shut down any criticism of Islam, including simply criticism of jihad violence, […]

Tunisia: The controversy over “sexual jihad”

By

A hoax? Evidence of social blight? A legitimate form of jihad? In Tunisia, the controversy is still roiling.

But unless “Islamophobes” have thoroughly infiltrated the […]

Tunisia: Imam gets six months prison for using mosque loudspeakers to tell his followers to murder police officers

To call the police officers taghout is a serious charge: the word means “rebels,” “evil powers,” even “idolaters.” “Have you not seen those who were given a portion of the Scripture, who believe in superstition and false objects of worship [taghout] and say about the disbelievers, ‘These are better guided than the believers as to […]

Tunisian Islamic supremacists screaming “Allahu akbar” rally against secular constitution: “Establishing Islam is obligatory”

Tunisia: Melee erupts among lawmakers over apostasy article in draft constitution

By

Muhammad said: “Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him” (Bukhari 9.84.57). The death penalty for apostasy is part of Islamic law according to all the schools of Islamic jurisprudence.

Sharia in action in “Arab Spring” Tunisia: Islamic supremacists threaten to kill teachers without veil

By

Or else “Moreover, freedom in America is indivisible from the freedom to practice one’s religion. That is why there is a mosque in every state in our union, and over 1,200 mosques within our borders.

Sex jihad of Tunisian girl in Syria: “They promised me paradise, so I gave myself to 152 men”

Tunisian Muslim extradited to U.S. to face charges in plot to set off jihad-martyrdom suicide bomb at U.S. military installation in Europe

By

With a zebibah like that, Nizar Trabelsi appears to be quite devout. How is it that he misunderstood his peaceful religion so drastically as to think it involved killing infidels? Why are U.S. authorities so totally uninterested in that question? “Tunisian extradited to U.S. in Al Qaeda suicide bomb plot,” by Richard A. Serrano in […]

Tunisian women “waging sex jihad in Syria”

By

“Jihad al-nikah, permitting extramarital sexual relations with multiple partners, is considered by some hardline Sunni Muslim Salafists as a legitimate form of holy war.” Sounds like bid’a (innovation) to me — a serious sin in Islam. Those most likely to declare it as such, however, are those who are doing it. “Tunisian women ‘waging sex […]
