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

Islamic State glorifies Sydney siege jihadi Man Haron Monis

Dec 31, 2014 5:24 am By Robert Spencer

Western authorities and the media establishment have hastened to assure us that Man Haron Monis was simply mentally ill, and that’s why he took hostages in the Lindt Chocolat Cafe and had some of them hold the black flag of jihad to the window. The Islamic State, however, has a different view. “Sydney siege gunman […]

Woman who inspired #illridewithyou after Sydney jihad siege now admits she “editorialized” much of the story

Dec 18, 2014 6:13 pm By Robert Spencer

Rachael Jacobs claimed that she saw a woman take off her hijab over fear that she would be attacked by “Islamophobes” during the Sydney jihad siege at Lindt Chocolat Cafe. Now she admits that she had no idea why the woman took off her headscarf: “She might not even be Muslim or she could have […]

Halal certification boss widely reported as having left Sydney cafe just before jihad siege began now denies having been there

Dec 18, 2014 11:53 am By Robert Spencer

Mohamed Elmouelhy and his wife Nadia, who apparently spells their last name El-Mouelhy, are the heads of Australia’s Halal Certification Authority. Lindt Chocolat Cafe had declined to go halal. Nadia El-Mouelhy was reported in three news accounts to have been on the scene of the jihad siege at the cafe, and the Daily Telegraph says […]

Tens of thousands tweet #illridewithyou hashtag over cafe jihad backlash fears

Dec 16, 2014 4:45 am By Robert Spencer

“Reprisal attacks are something that should not happen.” Indeed so. They should not happen, and for the most part they don’t. Jihad attacks are also something that should not happen. Where are the Muslims offering to ride with Infidels in order to defend them against other Muslims who may wish to bomb them, behead them, […]

Australia: 34-year-old man and 38-year-old woman dead, as well as jihadist gunman, in Sydney hostage crisis

Dec 15, 2014 2:04 pm By Robert Spencer

The death toll grows. We heard earlier that a “number of people had been hit,” so the death toll may go higher still. AP has this: “Police say 34-year-old man and 38-year-old woman are among 3 dead in Sydney hostage crisis.” Time for another mainstream media story about “backlash” against Muslims. “Gunman and Two Others […]

Muslims in Australia say they fear Sydney jihad hostage crisis backlash

Dec 15, 2014 12:43 pm By Robert Spencer

An hour and a half ago I wrote this: “There will also be a heavy barrage of ‘backlash’ stories — indeed, they have already begun.” And a bit before that: “The pattern never changes: in the wake of a jihad terror attack or plot, Muslims in the West do not do what they should do: […]

Sydney jihadist, one other person dead as police storm cafe to end jihad hostage crisis

Dec 15, 2014 11:34 am By Robert Spencer

“A Muslim community leader in Sydney, Dr. Jamal Rifi, said in a televised interview that ‘everything he stands for is wrong.’ ‘It has nothing to do with Islam as a religion whatsoever, and we have all seen that by his previous action and his current actions.’” His previous actions include involvement in an honor killing, […]

Sydney jihad hostage crisis over, “number of people have been hit”

Dec 15, 2014 10:54 am By Robert Spencer

Now that the worst is over, the Australian government and the international media can go into full “This has nothing to do with Islam” mode, with explanations of how Man Haron Monis was mentally ill, or driven to this by the evil deeds of Australian soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. There will also be a […]

Robert Spencer in FrontPage: Jihad in an Australian Chocolate Shop

Dec 15, 2014 7:58 am By Robert Spencer

I wrote this last night. The major revelation since then has been the hostage-taker’s announcement that the incident means that “Australia is under attack by the Islamic State.” In FrontPage today: The details are still sketchy, but this is what is apparently confirmed as of this writing (8PM EST Sunday night): as many as 50 […]

Sydney jihad hostage-taker: “Australia is under attack by the Islamic State”

Dec 15, 2014 5:32 am By Robert Spencer

“Note we are unable to confirm whether Mikhael is a hostage and the demands are legitimate, however we can confirm that she is a Senior Project Manager at Westpac in Sydney, and the bank has its headquarters on Martin Place where the terrorist attack has occurred, which at the very least would place her near […]

Sydney police commissioner on jihad flag: “We’re still trying to work out what exactly it stands for”

Dec 14, 2014 10:31 pm By Robert Spencer

It stands for jihad. It stands for the Islamic confession of faith, “There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is his prophet.” But in a political culture that is determined to ignore the patently obvious regarding Islamic jihad, the police commissioner has to scratch his head and say that he just can’t figure out […]

US evacuates Sydney consulate near cafe where jihadis hold hostages

Dec 14, 2014 8:56 pm By Robert Spencer

This could indicate that they expect the situation to escalate. “US Consulate near hostage cafe evacuated, security warning issued,” Reuters, December 14, 2014: SYDNEY, Dec 15 (Reuters) – The United States has evacuated its Sydney Consulate, which is located near a cafe in the city where hostages are being held, a spokeswoman said on Monday.

As jihadis took hostages in Sydney cafe, police were doing outreach at mosque

Dec 14, 2014 8:35 pm By Robert Spencer

Bitter irony. One thing you can be sure of is that these police officers who were touring the Lakemba mosque were not challenging Muslim leaders to teach against the ideology of the Islamic State that they ostensibly reject. As the hostage situation in Australia began, many Sydney police officers were busy conducting outreach in a […]
