The honor is all mine. Mark Tapson reviews my book Confessions of an Islamophobe at FrontPage: [To order Robert Spencer’s “Confessions of an Islamophobe,” CLICK HERE.] With the possible exception of freedom fighter and European political party leader Geert Wilders, there is arguably no critic of Islam more despised and feared by the Religion of […]
Robert Spencer: “Everyone who is concerned with human rights and free society should be an Islamophobe”
“The word ‘Islamophobe’ is used to label two quite distinct phenomena: vigilante attacks against innocent Muslims which are never justified, and honest analysis of the motivating ideology behind jihad terror, plus opposition to that terror and Sharia oppression. If the latter is to be labeled Islamophobia, as it is in an attempt to discredit it […]
Geert Wilders on Robert Spencer’s Confessions of an Islamophobe: “A truly historic book by a hero of our times”
Here is Geert Wilders on my new book, Confessions of an Islamophobe: “Again a truly historic book by truth-teller Robert Spencer, hero of our times and one of the bravest defenders of liberty that I have ever met. Read it and learn how much we need courageous ‘Islamophobes’ like Robert in order to stay free […]
Hamas-linked CAIR on Robert Spencer: “One of the nation’s most notorious Islamophobes”
Why does opposing jihad mass murder and Sharia oppression of women, gays, and other groups make one “notorious”? Why does it get one stigmatized with the pejorative label “Islamophobe”? Is there really a distinction between sound and legitimate criticism of Islam and jihad and “Islamophobia”? Is there a way for thoughtful opponents of jihad terror […]
Muslim writer: “Robert Spencer is an Edward Said turned upside down”
Stephen Suleyman Schwartz is a convert to Islam and author of The Two Faces of Islam: Saudi Fundamentalism and Its Role in Terrorism and The Other Islam: Sufism and the Road to Global Harmony. He and I were on a panel together at CPAC in 2003 and have had some contentious exchanges in the past. […]
Ann Coulter on Robert Spencer’s Confessions of an Islamophobe: “Brilliant!”
Here is Ann Coulter on my new book Confessions of an Islamophobe: Don’t want to get run down by a truck on a New York street by a maniac screaming “Allahu akbar”? Object to polygamy and female genital mutilation? You must be an Islamophobe. Whether you are a dedicated Islamophobe or merely Islamophobia-curious, Robert Spencer’s […]
PJ Media on Robert Spencer: “A leader in this war for over a decade”
PJ Media called me “A leader in this war for over a decade, documenting not just what is happening but explaining why.” Thank you. But is the war in question really the resistance against jihad terror? Or is the larger war against those who believe that the resistance against jihad terror is morally wrong and […]
Robert Spencer’s Confessions of an Islamophobe “#1 New Release in Islam”
Imagine the rage and gnashing of teeth among the Leftist propagandists, Islamic supremacist taqiyya masters, and academic fascists over this book zooming to #1 on the Islam charts. What happens when an ordinary person starts telling the truth about the motivating ideology of jihad terror? Rage, hysteria, defamation, and death threats. And that’s just the […]
Islamophobia is killing the free world
Islamophobia is killing the free world. On this the Organization of Islamic Cooperation and the Council on American-Islamic Relations may agree, but I don’t mean the statement in quite the same sense in which they would understand it. Scan over some recent Jihad Watch headlines: Minnesota: Christian center fires man for helping stage “Exposing Sharia” […]
What makes someone a “hateful Islamophobe”?
In a new article over at the Unz Review, John Derbyshire asserts that I “hate” Islam, and calls me an “Islamophobe.” His article is entitled “I Don’t HATE Muslims—I’m PRUDENT About Them. There’s A Difference.” So apparently one can be prudent, like Derbyshire, or “hateful,” like me. What’s the difference? Aside from the name-calling, Derbyshire […]
