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

Raymond Ibrahim: Jizya, “Military Exemption,” and Murdered Christian Soldiers

Apr 14, 2018 8:33 am By Raymond Ibrahim

One of the staples of the Islamic whitewashing industry is the claim that jizya — the extortion money subjugated Jews and Christians were required to pay (a la Koran 9:29) — actually “entitled them to Muslim protection from outside aggression and exempted them from military service,” to quote Georgetown University’s John Esposito. By this widely held logic, […]

“The Qur’an Teaches That All Human Beings Are Equal”: Race (Part III)

Dec 13, 2016 11:23 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

But what about John Esposito’s third claim, the one that is the focus of those Dallas billboards, about the supposed “racial equality” in Islam? There are a few passages, it is true, in the Qur’an, in which it is obliquely suggested that all men are equal, regardless of the “diversity of your color.” Here are […]

“The Qur’an Teaches That All Human Beings Are Equal”: Sex (Part II)

Dec 12, 2016 8:29 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

What about Esposito’s next claim, that “the Qur’an teaches that all human beings are equal, regardless of…sex”? Before we weigh this statement, let’s review what we know about the treatment of women in Islam. Can there be equality between men and women, when a man can marry four women but a woman only one man? […]

“The Quran Teaches That All Human Beings Are Equal”: Beliefs (Part I)

Dec 11, 2016 2:05 pm By Hugh Fitzgerald

In the latest example of Muslim propaganda, the Dallas chapter of the Islamic Circle of North America has put up twelve billboards. Though there is a generic appeal to viewers to find out more about Islam by calling a hotline, 877-whyisam, or going to the website whyislam.org, the specific message that targets African-Americans on each […]

Why the War on ‘Islamophobia’ Distracts Us from Legitimate Terrorism Concerns

Oct 22, 2016 10:09 am By Andrew Harrod

John Esposito, the Saudi-funded director of Georgetown University’s Bridge Initiative, is on a mission to convince the world, one academic conference at a time, that “Islamophobia has metastasized” as a “social cancer in America.” Speaking alongside his protégé, Dalia Mogahed, Bridge Initiative Senior Fellow Engy Abdelkader, and others at the September 22 “Islamophobia in Focus: […]

‘Islamophobia Studies’ Are Coming To A College Near You, And There Won’t Be Any Debate About It

May 20, 2016 1:36 pm By Cinnamon Stillwell

“Before I get started, I just wanted to say that we are meeting on stolen indigenous people’s land. That’s really important to acknowledge.” So declared San Francisco State University race and resistance studies professor Rabab Abdulhadi, at the University of California, Berkeley’s Seventh Annual International Islamophobia Conference in April. Abdulhadi’s seemingly disjointed declaration was typical […]

Flawed fatwa offers no defense against jihad

Dec 4, 2015 6:11 am By Andrew Harrod

Does a 2010 book offer anti-jihadist “counter-narratives which emerge from religious views” of Muslim “mainstream scholars who have a lot of credibility” as desired by National Defense University Professor Hassan Abbas at a recent Washington, DC, panel?  Like other prominent academics, Abbas advocated the Fatwa on Terrorism and Suicide Bombings, yet this disturbing but often […]

Georgetown’s John Esposito Shills for Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood

Nov 5, 2015 1:17 pm By Cinnamon Stillwell

John Esposito, founding director of the Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding (ACMCU) at Georgetown University, has signed an open letter to British Prime Minister David Cameron opposing his invitation to Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi to Britain this week for talks. The letter stipulates that: While not necessarily supporting deposed President [Mohamed] […]

Saudi-funded academic John Esposito laments influence of Jihad Watch

Oct 28, 2015 7:49 pm By Robert Spencer

“The amount of money that the Center for American Progress and also CAIR [the Council on American Islamic Relations] show in their studies of philanthropic support for Islamophobic authors and websites was found to be 42.6 million dollars.” This is a wildly inflated figure, reached by conflating disparate organizations and lumping together the support they […]

Where Things Stand

Oct 14, 2015 8:12 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

More than 14 years have passed since Americans have had their attention forcefully fixed on the reality of Islamic terrorism. Until September 11, 2001, with the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, most people in America — and in Europe — could be forgiven for assuming that they would not become the […]

Georgetown U organized, paid for State Dept/Muslim Brotherhood meetup

Jan 31, 2015 2:55 pm By Robert Spencer

UPDATE: In an extremely odd turn of events, the State Department now denies that Georgetown funded this trip. ——– It isn’t clear whether or not the Saudi-funded Islamic apologist John Esposito was directly involved in this, but it is consistent with positions he has taken. He has called Muslim Brotherhood Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, who advocates […]

Fitzgerald: John Esposito, Colin Powell, and the Muslim Soldier Who Was Among the Few Exceptions that Prove the Rule

Nov 24, 2009 5:20 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

“What about the many Muslims who have served and now the 20,000 who currently serve in the armed forces, those that fought and died in Afghanistan and Iraq? Are they influenced by their religion in their willingness to serve, fight and die for their country? Courageous Muslims like Kareem Rashad Sultan Khan, praised by Colin […]
