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

Greece, Cyprus, Egypt, France and UAE conduct joint military exercises amid rising Turkish threat

Dec 5, 2020 2:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 1 Comment

In a significant move, the United Arab Emirates “is participating for the first time, along with new arrival France, in the joint Greek-Egyptian-Cypriot Medusa-10 training exercises being held Nov. 30 to Dec. 6 off the coast of Alexandria.” The presence of this alliance in the Mediterranean sends a strong message to Turkey, although “their true […]

Islamic Republic of Iran: Turkey’s Erdogan champions Islam only as a tool to further his own interests

Dec 5, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 6 Comments

Although Iran and Turkey have been friends of convenience because of the fact that they share mutual enemies, both Shia Iran and Sunni Turkey seek regional and ultimately global dominion. Consequently, it was only a matter of time before their ambitions collided, particularly also in light of the ancient and ongoing Sunni-Shia conflict. “Anti-Turkish Statements […]

Turkey plucked to pieces by Pompeo at NATO conference

Dec 4, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 14 Comments

Turkey has been an ongoing menace in the region, as well as a global threat. It is mystifying that Turkey remains part of NATO, considering that it is in reality an enemy of NATO. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s missions of reviving the Ottoman Empire is directly contrary to the goals and philosophy of the […]

Erdogan: ‘Meanness’ toward Muhammad is ‘far removed’ from ‘freedom of thought’

Nov 29, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 65 Comments

In other words, you can have freedom of thought, as long as you don’t think what he doesn’t want you to think. The West is going all-in for this Orwellian idea these days, so why not Erdogan? “Erdogan: Insulting people’s beliefs is not freedom,” TRT World, November 28, 2020: Turkish President Erdogan says those who […]

EU-sanctioned German commandos board Turkish ship in Mediterranean to enforce UN arms embargo on Libya

Nov 28, 2020 2:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 29 Comments

A collaborative effort by the EU, UN and NATO to control Turkish influence in Libya has caused outrage in Turkey. It is to be expected that Erdogan would blame Greece, since Erdogan habitually scapegoats the Greeks. He has been bullying Greece for some time, prompting the Greek government to begin bolstering its military, due to Turkey’s […]

Turkey and Qatar vow to work together to combat ‘the escalation of the wave of Islamophobia’

Nov 26, 2020 2:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 12 Comments

Muslim Brotherhood sponsor Qatar is tightening its relations with Turkey in order to shore up its regional clout. This is noteworthy in light of the fact that Turkey’s relationship with Egypt has suffered because of Turkey’s affiliation with the Muslim Brotherhood, “as well as the dispute over gas resources in the Mediterranean. Egypt has made […]

Turkey’s Erdogan says he sees Turkey as ‘part of Europe’ and wants full EU membership

Nov 26, 2020 1:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 48 Comments

The greatest ambition of Erdogan is a revived Ottoman Empire. Should he obtain his goals of EU membership and the settling of large numbers of Muslim migrants throughout the EU, his ambition will be closer to realization. Erdogan has referred to Europe as a “sick man” – “the slur European politicians used to describe the […]

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 […]

State-owned Turkish news channel charges German crackdown on Turkish group ‘motivated by anti-Muslim bigotry’

Nov 23, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer 19 Comments

“The anonymous TRT World source thinks that behind all the banning efforts, there is a deliberate smear campaign to undermine Muslims’ standing in European countries, creating a perception that the Islamic faith inspires terrorist acts.” Yes, of course. Because who could possibly ever have gotten the idea that the Islamic faith inspired terrorist acts if […]

Turkey seeks extradition from Russia of man who desecrated Qur’an

Nov 19, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer 26 Comments

The Turks are irked, but the Russians should tell them that Russia is not a Sharia state and does not adhere to Sharia blasphemy laws, and that therefore Ibrahim Atabi will not be extradited. Will the Russians do this? Or allow realpolitik to guide their considerations? “Turkey Seeks Extradition of Man Who Desecrated Quran,” International […]

Irked Turks slam Pompeo for promoting religious freedom, call on him to focus on ‘Islamophobia’ instead

Nov 16, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 35 Comments

Pompeo is set to meet Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew on Tuesday in Istanbul. He is not scheduled to meet Erdogan. The Turks are enraged because Pompeo is slated to focus on religious freedom, just months after Turkey converted two venerable Byzantine churches, Hagia Sophia and the Monastery at Chora, into mosques. Pompeo should instead, the Turks […]

Turkish al-Qaeda group operating out of Azerbaijan led by founder of an Islamic charity

Nov 14, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 10 Comments

In Islam, zakat — the alms required of every Muslim — can and should be given to further the jihad. So it shouldn’t surprise anyone that there are so many jihad-linked charities. “Turkish al-Qaeda group operating out of Azerbaijan led by IHH charity founder,” by Abdullah Bozkurt, Nordic Monitor, November 9, 2020: A Turkish al-Qaeda […]

France: Police question 4 Muslim 10-year-olds who voiced support for beheading of teacher for insulting Muhammad

Nov 11, 2020 12:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 19 Comments

Needless to say, the children are being taught by adults about the punishment of death for blasphemy that is prescribed in Islamic law. France, thanks to President Emmanuel Macron and supportive globalists, has opened its doors to largely unvetted mass Muslim migration — in defiance of common sense and their responsibility to French citizens. They […]

Algerian analyst hits ‘Armenia’s hostile attitude towards Islam,’ says Erdogan ‘acts as protector of all Muslims’

Nov 3, 2020 10:30 am By Robert Spencer 24 Comments

Erdogan is positioning himself to restore the caliphate, and that seems to be fine with this Algerian analyst. Al-Rafi’s remarks are also further confirmation that the Azerbaijanis and their allies view their conflict with Armenia as an Islamic jihad. “Armenia hostile to entire Islamic world, says Algerian analyst,” Trend News Agency, October 29, 2020: Armenia […]

Canada: Trudeau government grants exemption to sell drone technology to Turkey

Oct 31, 2020 4:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 37 Comments

Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan supports ISIS, is virulently anti-Israel, and is now recruiting jihadists from Syria with plans to attack Greece. Turkey also violated Greek airspace 45 times, and meddles in Libya. Erdogan called the EU “sick” and “collapsing”; he called French President Emmanuel Macron mentally unbalanced for protecting the freedom of speech in […]

Azerbaijani forces target cathedral in Artsakh, behead Armenians

Oct 30, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 25 Comments

Azerbaijan’s jihad war crimes will get little notice, because like the “Palestinians,” Azerbaijan has a well-funded PR machine. “One Greek killed fighting in Artsakh, Azerbaijan continues to commit war crimes,” by Paul Antonopoulos, Greek City Times, October 28, 2020: One ethnic Greek born in Armenia has been killed while defending Artsakh from a Turkish-sponsored invasion […]

Erdogan says West is ‘once again headed to a period of barbarity’: ‘They literally want to relaunch the Crusades’

Oct 30, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer 69 Comments

Erdogan likely knows what an absurd claim this is, but he is apparently calculating that such charges will intimidate Macron and other French authorities to back down from challenging Islamization and Sharia in France, and doing anything significant to stop jihad violence. “Turkey hits at ‘Crusades’ against Islam in cartoons row with France,” by Tuvan […]

Turkey’s Erdogan files criminal complaint against Geert Wilders for insulting him

Oct 29, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 28 Comments

Erdogan has long been antagonizing the EU, and has referred to it as “sick” and “collapsing.” Recently, we have seen his furious defense of Islam in France in the wake of the beheading of teacher Samuel Paty for showing a cartoon of Muhammad. His latest target is Dutch politician Geert Wilders, who is well known […]

Egypt’s Sisi: Erdogan ‘now openly uses the Islamic factor,’ warns of ‘wave of terrorists in Greece in the future’

Oct 28, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 18 Comments

The warning from the Egyptian President should put the EU on alert to not tolerate jihadist expansion by Turkey, which is aiming to revive the Ottoman Empire. Back in 2016, Foreign Policy Magazine warned that “Turkey’s new Maps” were “reclaiming the Ottoman Empire” and that Erdogan’s “aggressive nationalism” was “spilling over Turkey’s borders, grabbing land […]
