Turks irked at Qur’an-burning in Sweden: ‘We expect Swedish authorities to take all measures to fight this disease’

Sep 12, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer 65 Comments

“We expect Swedish authorities as well as all countries with cases of racism and Islamophobia to take all measures to fight against this disease both in the framework of European institutions and at the national level.” That means that the Turkish Foreign Ministry expects Sweden and other Western countries to give up the “freedom of […]

Turkey’s religious affairs chief brandishes sword during first Hagia Sophia sermon, “Hagia Sophia: Sign of conquest”

Jul 26, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

“Hagia Sophia: Sign of conquest, our trust in Fati̇h (Sultan Mehmet).” The Turks are making no secret of what the conversion of Hagia Sophia to a mosque means. What is coming should be clear to everyone, but isn’t: in February 2018, Erdoğan declared his desire to reconquer the lands the Ottoman caliphate once ruled: “Those […]

Turkey’s Religious Affairs top dog: ‘Hagia Sophia shouldn’t only be place of worship,’ should be ‘a madrasa inside’

Jul 14, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Training a new generation of jihadis and Islamic supremacists inside what was the foremost cathedral in Christendom for nearly a millennium — what could be more deliciously illustrative of the triumph and supremacy of Islam? “Turkey’s Top Imam Now Wants to Build an Islamic School at Hagia Sophia,” by Tasos Kokkinidis, Greek Reporter, July 12, […]

Turkey: Lawyers who objected to Muslim cleric’s saying homosexuality brings ‘disease’ face criminal investigation

May 10, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Here is yet another indication of Turkey’s discarding of secularism and re-adoption of Sharia. “Turkish cleric’s sermon saying homosexuality ‘brings disease’ sparks legal threats,” GayStarNews, May 1, 2020: Lawyers who objected to a Muslim cleric who claimed homosexuality brings ‘disease’ are facing a criminal investigation. Imam Ali Erbas gave the sermon last Friday at the […]

Turkey’s Jihad in Syria

Mar 6, 2020 9:00 am By Vasileios Meichanetsidis

On February 28, the Turkish government-funded Anadolu Agency (AA) reported on the alleged takeover of a Syrian town by the Islamist “Free Syrian Army” (FSA). In the news report, the agency posted some images of the FSA fighters. A striking detail immediately attracted attention: on the arms and chests of some FSA fighters were logos […]

Muslim leaders: “Identifying Islam with terrorism stems from evil intentions and dirty ambitions”

Oct 25, 2019 12:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

Islamic supremacist leaders everywhere are upping the ante on spreading the misinformation that Islam is a “religion of tolerance” and peace, and that it has no connection with violence. Pontificating as though the persecution of Christians and other non-Muslims, the murder of apostates and gays, the abuse of women and girls and the efforts to […]

Turkey’s Religious Affairs top dog: “There is no such thing as German, French or European Islam”

Jan 3, 2019 5:08 pm By Robert Spencer

This will come as a shock to the likes of Emmanuel Macron, with his confident plans to create a “French Islam,” but Macron will pay no heed. Erbaş, however, is backed up by the record of history. Throughout 1,400 years of Islam, there has never been a non-Muslim state in which a form of Islam […]

Turkey’s Religious Affairs top dog decries “anti-Islamic discourses” that “threaten the multiculturalism of Europe”

Jan 2, 2019 5:10 pm By Robert Spencer

“The recent increase in racial movements and anti-Islamic discourses and actions in Europe threaten the multiculturalism of Europe, the culture of living together, peace and tranquility,” said the leaned Erbaş. He didn’t say anything about multiculturalism in Turkey, which has practiced ruthless ethnic cleansing of religious and ethnic minorities for over 100 years, nearly effacing […]

Turkey’s Religious Affairs top dog: Children who don’t study the Quran are close to Satan

Dec 8, 2018 2:11 pm By Robert Spencer

Then when they read all that about “kill them wherever you find them” (Qur’an 2:191, 4:89, cf. 9:5), and “strike the necks” of the unbelievers (Qur’an 47:4), and that unbelievers are “the most vile of created beings” (Qur’an 98:6), and that Muslims should be “merciful to one another, ruthless to unbelievers” (Qur’an 48:29), and that […]

Turkey’s religious affairs top dog: Important area of cooperation with Europe is efforts to eliminate Islamophobia

Nov 10, 2018 2:08 pm By Robert Spencer

If Ali Erbaş really wants to end “Islamophobia,” here is how he and his fellow Muslims could accomplish it. They could call upon Muslim individuals and groups to: 1. Focus their indignation on Muslims committing violent acts in the name of Islam, not on non-Muslims reporting on those acts. 2. Renounce definitively, sincerely, honestly, and […]

Turkey’s Religious Affairs chief: “Not correct to put the words of Islam and reform next to each other”

Mar 16, 2018 7:18 pm By Robert Spencer

There are those in the West who are so confident in the prospects for reform in Islam that they take that confidence as an index of the reliability of various analysts: if one is not as sanguine as they are about the prospects for Islamic reform, they’re branded as “racist,” “bigoted” and “Islamophobic.” Those who […]

Turks moving slowly in Afrin to avoid “causing even one person’s nose to bleed; after all, this is Islam’s order”

Feb 12, 2018 11:17 am By Robert Spencer

“Our Muslim soldiers are undertaking their fight in line with Islam’s principles. That is why they are moving slowly in Afrin. They are moving with the conscience of not causing even one person’s nose to bleed; after all, this is Islam’s order.” In reality, the Turks are moving slowly in Afrin because of mountains and […]
