“You don’t have to be anti-Palestinian to be pro-Israeli,” Biden told the conference. “Israeli and Palestinian children are equally deserving of safety, security, and an opportunity to pursue their dreams.” Is Biden suggesting that Israel standing on its rights, both under the Mandate for Palestine, and according to an entirely independent justification for its holding […]
FBI missed chances to stop several jihad massacres in the US, failed to investigate suspected jihadis
Of course it did, because the FBI is still institutionally committed to ignoring, downplaying, or denying the motivating ideology behind jihad terrorism. Failing to investigate suspected jihadis is all part of the same willful ignorance. The bureau doesn’t want to appear “Islamophobic” by scrutinizing these people too closely; such scrutiny would abet the impression that […]
At AIPAC, Biden Disappoints (Part 2)
Jordan remained the illegal “occupier” of the West Bank from 1948 to 1967; its only claim was that of military occupation. The “Palestinian people” had not yet been invented, so Amman made no move to hand the West Bank over to the non-existent Palestinians. The juridical situation was quite different for Israel, its claim to […]
At AIPAC, Biden Disappoints (Part 1)
Former US vice president and Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden told the pro-Israel lobby AIPAC on March 2 that Israel’s annexation and settlement policies are undermining support for the Jewish state among young people. What is “undermining support” for Israel “among young people” and others is the failure of those politicians like Biden who consider […]
Pentagon failed to vet Saudi military recruit who murdered three Americans in jihad massacre in Pensacola
“Despite security screening of these individuals, it became clear in the wake of the attack that the federal government failed to pick up on clear warning signs, such as the attacker’s anti-American social media posts.” Clearly the screening process is inadequate, in large part because of the Pentagon’s denial and willful ignorance regarding the motivating […]
Bernie Sanders’ “Horrifying” Comment On Jerusalem
During his appearance with the other Democratic candidates in South Carolina, Bernie Sanders was asked if he would “move the American Embassy back to Tel Aviv from Jerusalem”; he did not find that an outrageous idea. In fact, he said he would think about it, that it would be “under consideration.” Those who know that […]
Indiana: GOP chair and councilman apologize to Islamic Association for other councilman’s Islamocritical statements
Here yet again, we see a local Republican Party demonstrating the cowardice that afflicts the party over all over the country. Jaime Bolser should not be allowing Hamas-linked CAIR and the establishment media to set the agenda. She should be prepared to explain how Stewart’s remarks were reasonable, as I did here. She should not […]
France: Macron poses in selfie with niqabi who defied French law
Emmanuel Macron has been battling for votes, caught between his globalist instincts and the rising “populist” movement. For instance, he stated that he doesn’t want Muslims to be stigmatized, after making a U-turn seven months earlier, vowing “an intractable fight against political Islam.” He fails to realize that normative Islam encompasses the Sharia in every […]
Bernie Sanders On “That Right Wing” and “Racist” Israeli Government
At a town hall meeting in Nevada on February 18, Bernie Sanders delivered himself of some thoughts on what he described as Israel’s “right-wing” and “racist” government. A report on that latest effort is here: Senator Bernie Sanders says the United States must be “pro-Palestinian” as much as “pro-Israeli” and described the Israeli government as […]
Wall Street Journal praises book about Islam’s glorious past, whitewashes its brutality and inhumanity
In this enthusiastic, adulatory review of Justin Marozzi’s book Islamic Empires, Tunku Varadarajan, executive editor at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution and thus someone who should know better if our academic environment were not so corrupt and compromised, retails present-day academic fictions about Islamic history that outrage the historical record, and that no one who was remotely […]
Elizabeth Warren Channels Molly Bloom: Yeah! I Said Yeah! I Mean Yeah! (Part 2)
Elizabeth Warren seems to think that America has always supported Israel. Her knowledge of the history of American involvement with Israel and the Arabs leaves something to be desired: “we keep standing with Israel” It is not true that the American government has always been “standing with Israel.” The Obama Administration certainly was not “standing […]
Sweden: Interior Minister says migrant robbers urinate on their victims because they feel hopeless
Nothing, no amount of evidence, would compel Mikael Damberg and other Leftists like him to admit that anything the migrants do wrong is not necessarily all the fault of the host country, or to reconsider their policy of attempting to solve these problems by admitting more migrants and giving them all ever increasing amounts of […]
Elizabeth Warren Channels Molly Bloom: Yeah! I Said Yeah! I Mean Yeah! (Part 1)
Elizabeth Warren is a former law professor whose specialty is bankruptcy law. She knows how to read and make sense of complicated codes, rebarbative regs, and the most taxing of tax texts. But when it comes to the Arab-Israeli conflict, she shows no signs of having understood, or even of having read, the most essential […]
UK officials were warned in December 2018 not to free Sudesh Amman, they did anyway and he went on stabbing spree
Doubtless all those who expressed concern about this were denounced as racist, bigoted “Islamophobes.” It’s the British — and American — way. “Streatham terrorist ‘in MI5’s top five’ was freed halfway through sentence without being assessed by Parole Board even though he ‘still held extremist views’ – a month after PM vowed crackdown on releasing […]
Independent claims Muslim who attacked cops with sword was inspired by Tommy Robinson, David Wood, Robert Spencer
Lizzie Dearden of the Independent details here how jihad terrorist Mohiusunnath Chowdhury, whose hate and bloodlust we have covered a great deal here at Jihad Watch, says he learned from Tommy Robinson, David Wood and me. In this, Dearden echoes Chowdhury’s prosecutor, Duncan Atkinson, whose claim that Chowdhury was inspired by Robinson we reported yesterday. […]
UK: Prosecutor says Muslim who plotted jihad massacres “was attracted to Tommy Robinson’s interpretation of Islam”
“He was attracted to Tommy Robinson’s interpretation of Islam as a violent religion you may think his explanation of the book shows both that he had read it and was excited by it.” Yes, of course. Mohiussunnath Chowdhury was a peaceful exponent of the Religion of Peace, seeking refuge in its peaceful teachings and spreading […]
Minnesota Catholic Priest Apologizes for Saying Islam Is the ‘Greatest Threat in the World’
My latest in PJ Media: The world is so crazy these days that if you enunciate unpopular truths, people who are supposed to be moral authorities will pressure you to retract and apologize. A Roman Catholic priest in Ilhan Omar’s Minnesota, the Rev. Nick VanDenBroeke, has been compelled by Catholic authorities to apologize “for saying […]
Sweden’s Prime Minister admits that rise of anti-Semitism stems from mass Muslim migration
We have been pointing this out for years, but Stefan Löfven would have denounced us as “Islamophobic” for doing so.”While anti-Semitism in Sweden was historically associated with right-wing extremism, a 2013 study cited by Paulina Neuding of The New York Times revealed that 51 percent of anti-Semitic incidents in Sweden were connected with Muslim extremists. […]

Prince Charles was in Israel to take part in the observance of the 75th anniversary since the liberation of Auschwitz. He went to the President’s House, to be greeted by President Reuven Rivlin.

Prince Charles was recently in Israel, along with many world leaders, for the observance of the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz.
