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

Erdogan: Muslims in Europe are treated like Jews before World War II

Oct 27, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer 38 Comments

Really? Where has a single state denied Muslims the right to employment, or confiscated their property, or done anything comparable to what National Socialist Germany did to the Jews before World War II? Also, if this were true, why are Muslims trying so hard to get into Europe, rather than streaming out of it? Erdogan’s […]

Turkey: Presidential Communications top dog says ‘Europe is an increasingly dangerous place for Muslims’

Oct 27, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer 33 Comments

Nonetheless, Altun says, they are there to stay and will continue to menace those who dare to exercise the freedom of speech: “Here’s what those Europeans need to understand: Muslims won’t go away because you don’t want us. We won’t turn the other cheek when you insult us. We will defend ourselves and our own […]

Erdogan: Raid on Berlin mosque ‘nourished by racism and Islamophobia,’ brings Europe ‘closer to Middle Ages’

Oct 26, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 47 Comments

Here yet again we see that anytime a Muslim organization runs afoul of the law for any reason, opportunistic supremacists such as Erdogan will portray this as a manifestation of “Islamophobia,” defined as the unfair targeting of innocent Muslims, which is so rare in real life that incidents of it have to be manufactured. Erdogan […]

Erdogan: ‘What is the problem of Macron with Muslims and Islam? Macron needs treatment on a mental level’

Oct 25, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 76 Comments

This is quite similar to charging opponents of jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women and others with “Islamophobia,” which implies that opposition to such evils are afflicted with a pathology, a psychological disorder. The logic of that leads to pseudo-therapeutic torture in reeducation camps, but we aren’t quite there yet. In any case, these […]

Turkey, Azerbaijan commit more crimes against Armenians

Oct 24, 2020 3:00 pm By Uzay Bulut 36 Comments

On September 27, the people of the Armenian Republic of Artsakh in the South Caucasus, also known as Nagorno-Karabakh, woke up to the shelling of the military forces of Azerbaijan. Azerbaijani forces have since indiscriminately shelled the civilian areas of Artsakh including its capital, Stepanakert. Many residential areas have been largely destroyed by Azerbaijani bombardment. Half of the population have been displaced, the region’s rights ombudsman Artak Beglaryan […]

Erdogan Antagonizes His ‘Arab Brothers’

Oct 24, 2020 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald 16 Comments

Burak Bekdil is a brave and humorful Turkish journalist who dares, while living in Ankara, to highlight the political follies of President Erdogan in articles he writes for foreign websites. A recent column of interest from him is here. Neither the Ottoman nor the modern Turkish language has ever been short of racist proverbs denigrating […]

Armenian archbishop: Turkey is perpetrating ‘third genocide’ against Armenians in Nagorno-Karabakh

Oct 21, 2020 3:30 pm By Robert Spencer 19 Comments

They’ll likely get away with again also, as Azerbaijan has a well-oiled PR machine. Genocidal killers take advantage of the world’s indifference. As Hitler himself said, “Who, after all, speaks today of the annihilation of the Armenians?” “Archbishop accuses Turkey of backing ‘third Armenian genocide’ in Nagorno-Karabakh,” by Inés San Martín, Crux, October 16, 2020: […]

Archbishop of Albania: Conversion of Hagia Sophia to a mosque is a ‘cultural jihad’

Oct 21, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 12 Comments

The archbishop is right. The conversion of Hagia Sophia to a mosque is for Erdogan a symbol of Islam’s triumph over secularism, just as its conversion to a museum in 1935 was a symbol of secularism’s triumph over Islam, and its original conversion to a mosque in 1453 was a symbol of Islam’s triumph over […]

‘Turkey’s continued embrace of terrorist groups, including the Islamic State (ISIS), has caused havoc’

Oct 15, 2020 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer 16 Comments

Here is more indication that what is behind the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict is the same imperative that has been behind 1,400 years of aggression by Muslims against Christians: the Islamic call to “fight them until religion is all for Allah” (Qur’an 8:39). “Turkey is Normalizing Militant Jihadism,” by Armen V. Sahakyan and Erik Khzmalyan, Providence, September […]

Turkey: Pro-Erdogan journalist hails Azerbaijan ‘purging its cities, villages, mountains and lands’ of Armenians

Oct 10, 2020 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer 21 Comments

Turkey did the same thing in the early twentieth century, “purging its lands” of Armenians by means of genocide. Note that the rhetoric of “occupation” that Karagül uses here is the same as that employed by jihadis in the “Palestinian” territories, as well as in Jammu and Kashmir and elsewhere. Jihadis routinely frame their struggles […]

Turkey: “The claim by Macron that ‘Islam is in crisis’ is dangerous and provocative, encouraging Islamophobia”

Oct 8, 2020 12:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 11 Comments

Much of the controversy centers upon Macron’s announcement that France will move to ban homeschooling in 2021, in order “to stifle religious instruction of children.” By all indications, the religion that France seeks to protect children from is Islam. Any measure intended to stymie Islamization will inevitably be denounced as “Islamophobic.” But according to independent […]

Israel’s Defense Minister: Turkey and Iran are ‘denying promotion of peace and supporting regional aggression’

Oct 8, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 6 Comments

Turkey has become an increasing menace and bully in the region. On the heels of Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan declaring the absurdity that “Jerusalem has been our city for thousands of years,” Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz has stated accurately that Turkey and Iran are “denying promotion of peace and supporting regional aggression.” Both […]

Turkey: Religious Affairs top dog says ‘the goal’ is for Hagia Sophia to become a center of knowledge about Islam

Oct 7, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 29 Comments

The conversion of Hagia Sophia to a mosque is for Erdogan and Ali Erbas a symbol of Islam’s triumph over secularism, just as its conversion to a museum in 1935 was a symbol of secularism’s triumph over Islam, and its original conversion to a mosque in 1453 was a symbol of Islam’s triumph over Christianity.

Turkish foreign minister: EU shouldn’t ‘dare’ to impose sanctions over Turkey’s aggression toward Greece and Cyprus

Oct 6, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 23 Comments

Çavuşoğlu speaks to the European Union the way an irritated master speaks to a lazy servant. It is clear who he thinks is the boss in their relationship. Also note this: “Thanks to our efforts, irregular migratory flows to Europe have been reduced by 92 percent.” Think about that in light of Erdogan’s repeated threats […]

Macron demands Erdogan explain presence of jihadis in Azerbaijan, doesn’t explain presence of jihadis in France

Oct 5, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 24 Comments

Macron’s concern over Azerbaijan is reasonable, but he should pay closer attention to developments at home. To be sure, he has recently promised to do so, but words are cheap. “France’s Macron demands Turkey explain ‘jihadists’ in Azerbaijan,” Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, October 2, 2020 (thanks to Henry): French President Emmanuel Macron on Friday […]

Erdogan: ‘Jerusalem Has Been Our City For Thousands of Years’

Oct 4, 2020 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald 45 Comments

Erdogan addressed the opening of the Turkish Parliament on October 1 with a ringing declaration that “Jerusalem Has Been Our City For Thousands of Years.” The “our” in “our city” seemed to refer now to the Turks, and now to the “Palestinian people.” The story is here. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Thursday implied […]

The report found “multiple links between a range of bodies that could be traced back to common front organisations” which are linked to the Muslim Brotherhood and “are concerned with Palestine. This cluster includes the Muslim Association of Britain.” Meanwhile, the Muslim Council of Britain itself has been busy urging investigations into the Conservative Party […]

Turkey’s Erdogan: ‘Jerusalem is our city’

Oct 3, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer 31 Comments

Erdogan’s aspirations to restore the caliphate grow plainer by the day, but Western officials continue to ignore them. “‘Jerusalem is our city,’ Turkey’s Erdogan declares,” by Raphael Ahren, Times of Israel, October 1, 2020: Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Thursday implied that Jerusalem belongs to Turkey, referring to the Ottoman Empire’s control over the […]

Turkey: Muslim cleric demands invasion of Cyprus for the sake of Islam and Muhammad’s aunt

“The Ottoman navy greeted the Prophet Muhammad’s aunt, Umm Haram (known as Hala Sultan), with gunfire as they passed near Cyprus. The tomb of Hala Sultan, who participated in the first Muslim expedition to the sea, is under Greek occupation. Let us greet Hala Sultan again and tell her we will be coming soon.” Erdogan […]
