Jihad Watch

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

What Does It Take to Arouse Suspicion?  

Oct 10, 2019 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

The controversy this week in France, over why French officials failed to act on all the warning signs that Mickaël Harpon gave that he was in sympathy with jihad violence and hence might one day engage in jihad himself, recalls the instructive case of Khalid Masood, which revealed numerous problems with how officials all over […]

UK: Westminster jihad mass murderer sent wife verses from the Qur’an to justify his attack

Sep 20, 2018 2:22 pm By Robert Spencer

“The Westminster terrorist sent his wife a picture of himself in Mecca and verses from Koran before he unleashed his murderous attack….He selected a number of Islamic texts to justify his attack…” Not that this has anything to do with Islam, right? That’s what the BBC would have us believe. “‘What is this you sent […]

Westminster jihad murderer Khalid Masood, in last message, declared he was waging jihad

Apr 28, 2017 6:12 pm By Robert Spencer

How inconvenient for the mainstream narrative. Deputy assistant Metropolitan police commissioner Neil Basu said in March: “We must all accept that there is a possibility we will never understand why he did this. That understanding may have died with him.” Anything to avoid noting an Islamic motivation. “Last message left by Westminster attacker Khalid Masood […]

UK: Westminster car jihadi told family, “You will soon hear of my death, but don’t worry…I will be in paradise”

Apr 17, 2017 2:29 pm By Robert Spencer

The UK police have said: “There is a possibility we will never understand why he did this.” This new revelation makes it perfectly clear why he did it: because he considered himself to be a mujahid, a warrior for Allah, claiming Allah’s promise of Paradise to those who “kill and are killed” for him (Qur’an […]

Robert Spencer: What Is It About Converts to Islam?

Apr 17, 2017 10:04 am By Robert Spencer

Why do so many turn to jihad? Why is it so hard to instruct them properly in the tenets of the Religion of Peace? My latest in the Geller Report: What is it about converts to Islam? Why do so many of them get the idea that their new religion commands them to commit treason […]

BBC whitewashes Islamic motivation of Westminster jihad attack

Mar 30, 2017 9:26 am By Robert Spencer

Farasat knew Masood five years ago. A lot can happen in five years. Farasat’s description of a quiet, pious family man conflicts with Masood’s history of violence. Above all, Farasat says nothing about the fact that Masood was once investigated for “violent extremism,” and of course the BBC interviewer doesn’t ask him about that. Farasat […]

UK: Muslim pol says London jihadi was “violent Christian before he was a violent Muslim”

Mar 27, 2017 6:53 pm By Robert Spencer

A large part of my work is making elementary distinctions that are repeatedly obscured, and apparently deliberately so, by those who should know better, and probably do. In the first place, there is no evidence as far as I know that Masood was an observant or devout Christian at any time in his life, and […]

London jihad murderer was receiving welfare checks

Mar 27, 2017 5:32 pm By Robert Spencer

In Islamic law, non-Muslims have the duty to provide for the upkeep of Muslims. British jihadist Anjem Choudary said in February 2013: “We are on Jihad Seekers Allowance, We take the Jizya (protection money paid to Muslims by non-Muslims) which is ours anyway. The normal situation is to take money from the Kafir (non-Muslim), isn’t […]

London jihadi’s daughter refused his pressure to convert to Islam, wear a niqab

Mar 27, 2017 5:14 pm By Robert Spencer

UK Prime Minister Theresa May said it would be wrong to describe Masood’s jihad attack as “Islamic” extremism. She said: “It is Islamist terrorism. It is a perversion of a great faith.” But was there anything about Masood before his jihad massacre that would have identified him as an “Islamist” rather than as a Muslim? […]

London jihad murderer was “very religious”

Mar 25, 2017 4:38 pm By Robert Spencer

“Masood was a ‘very religious, well spoken man. You couldn’t go to his home in Birmingham on Friday because he would be at prayer.’” If Masood had been a “very religious” Christian, the establishment media would be investigating what was taught at his church, and publishing searching features about the crisis within Christianity. But since […]

London jihad murderer “said he needed time to pray and read the Koran – something about finding inner peace”

Mar 25, 2017 10:30 am By Robert Spencer

The Qur’an promises that fighting the unbelievers will “satisfy the breasts of a believing people and remove the fury in the believers’ hearts”: “Fight them; Allah will punish them by your hands and will disgrace them and give you victory over them and satisfy the breasts of a believing people and remove the fury in […]

Two “significant arrests” made overnight in association with London jihad murders

Mar 24, 2017 12:42 pm By Robert Spencer

“Nine people remain in custody and one woman has been released on bail.” This appears to have been a large-scale plot. And more are in the offing. “Two ‘significant arrests’ made overnight in association to London attack,” CNN, March 24, 2017: The birth name of the perpetrator of Wednesday’s deadly terrorist attack in central London […]

Neighbor says he knew London jihadi from mosque, mosque says they didn’t know him

The neighbor said: “I don’t know him personally but I believe he belongs to a mosque on Leyton High Road. I’ve seen his face many times. I saw him on the news at around 7pm last night and thought ‘this is the guy I know from the mosque.” However, “worshippers at the Al-Tawhid mosque in […]

London jihad murderer once stabbed a man in the face

Mar 23, 2017 10:10 pm By Robert Spencer

But he was a “peripheral figure,” says Theresa May: apparently there are a great many other Muslims in Britain who are even more violent and unhinged than Khalid Masood, and so there was no question of keeping him under surveillance. It is the Islamic State’s plan to overwhelm law enforcement with so many attacks and […]

London jihad murderer UK-born Muslim named Khalid Masood

Mar 23, 2017 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Foes of immigration controls are crowing over this jihad murderer having been born in Britain rather than being a “refugee” from somewhere else. But that is to obscure two problems: the very real one of jihadis entering the UK and other non-Muslim countries in the refugee stream, and the virtually ignored problem of what is […]
