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

Ramadan in Nigeria: Muslim gunman attack Catholic seminary, priest “badly wounded”

May 30, 2018 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

This is obviously a mistake. These poor Muslims simply don’t understand their own religion. Surely that most learned of imams, Pope Francis, is on his way to Jalingo now to explain to them how authentic Islam and the proper understanding of the Qur’an reject every form of violence. “Bomber kills four, suspected herders attack Catholic […]

Ramadan in Nigeria: Muslims murder five in jihad suicide bombings

May 29, 2018 10:14 am By Robert Spencer

Ramadan is the month during which Muslims redouble their efforts to please Allah. And Allah commands Muslims to kill and be killed in his cause, promising them Paradise if they do so: “Indeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties, for that they will have Paradise. They fight in the cause […]

Life in Boko Haram school: “All day, we were just memorising the Koran”

Dec 16, 2016 10:10 am By Robert Spencer

As all the learned experts from Pope Francis to John Kerry tell us, Islamic jihadists have nothing whatsoever to do with Islam, the noble religion of peace. Yet they have an odd and recurring tendency to focus upon the Qur’an. Maybe Pope Francis can make his way to a Boko Haram stronghold and explain to […]

Nigeria: 200 Muslim clerics training to counter Boko Haram ideology and propagate “peaceful nature of Islam”

Nov 14, 2016 9:43 am By Robert Spencer

“Some of the participants who spoke on the programme, described it as a welcome development that would assist in handling extremist and propagation of the peaceful nature of Islam. They pointed out that Prophet Muhammad cherished peaceful coexistence among and between Muslims and non-muslims and viewed non-Muslims as people who should be attracted to Islam […]

US, UK governments knew where girls kidnapped by Boko Haram were, but no one tried to rescue them

Mar 21, 2016 7:46 am By Robert Spencer

Why not? Would rescuing them have been “Islamophobic”? “Western governments KNEW where 80 Nigerian girls kidnapped by Boko Haram were – but no-one tried to rescue them,” by Keiligh Baker, MailOnline, March 20, 2016: The US and British governments knew where at least 80 of the Nigerian girls kidnapped by Boko Haram were but failed […]

Nigeria: Islamic State murders 22 in jihad suicide bombings at mosque

Mar 16, 2016 1:10 pm By Robert Spencer

Boko Haram pledged allegiance to the Islamic State and changed its name to the Islamic State in West Africa last year. It targeted this mosque most likely because it did not accept the authority of the Islamic State, and thus opened itself to charges of heresy and apostasy. “Mosque bombing in Nigeria kills 22,” IANS, […]

UPDATE: The death toll is now over 100. ———- Boko Haram pledged allegiance to the Islamic State and changed its name to the Islamic State in West Africa last year. Attacks like these are a foreshadowing of what is coming to Europe. “Boko Haram kills 65 in Borno village attack,” by Kayode Idowu, Punch, January […]

Ramadan in Nigeria: At least 30 dead in triple Islamic State attacks

Jul 17, 2015 5:41 am By Robert Spencer

Ramadan is the month in which Muslims are expected to renew and increase their devotion to Allah. Since jihad against non-Muslims is in Islamic theology an act of devotion to Allah, it becomes more virulent during Ramadan. Boko Haram pledged allegiance to the Islamic State last February, and in April renamed itself the Islamic State […]

Islamic State in Nigeria targets Catholics: 100,000 homeless

May 13, 2015 8:40 am By Robert Spencer

One might think that this ongoing persecution would be a worthy topic of discussion in the Church in America. One would be wrong. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops is so committed to “dialogue” with Muslims that it is willing to gloss over uncomfortable truths in pursuit of that dialogue: “Talk about extreme, militant Islamists […]

Nigeria: Female jihad suicide bomber murders 7 at crowded market

Feb 12, 2015 10:00 pm By Robert Spencer

This very well could be one of the girls Boko Haram so famously abducted last year — one that was found wanting, or considered to be recalcitrant. “Female suicide bomber kills 7 at crowded Nigeria market,” by Aminu Abubakar, CNN, February 12, 2015 (thanks to Bill): Kano, Nigeria (CNN)A female suicide bomber attacked a crowded […]
