Remember this the next time you read a weepy piece, especially one in the Los Angeles Times quoting Hamas-linked CAIR’s Hussam Ayloush, about America’s allegedly rampant “racism” and “Islamophobia.” And such articles are as sure to come as a Biden tax increase (if he does indeed become President). But if America is so terrible, why […]
Video: Robert Spencer on the freedom of speech in the age of absurdity
This morning I spoke at the Young America’s Foundation September High School Conference. My frequent references to the Los Angeles Times stem from the presence of a Los Angeles Times reporter in the room as I spoke. Watch for the Times hit piece on YAF and me.
Hamas-linked CAIR claims California mosques get pro-Trump letter threatening genocide of Muslims
Hailey Branson-Potts is not a real journalist; she works for the fake news site known as the Los Angeles Times. That’s why she doesn’t tell you that CAIR is an unindicted co-conspirator in a Hamas terror funding case — so named by the Justice Department. CAIR officials have repeatedly refused to denounce Hamas and Hizballah as terrorist […]
California Muslim who killed grandparents: “Praise be to Allah who [ will ] in searing pain smite my enimies with haste”
It seems clear from his Facebook page that Nathaniel Scheiern, who killed and tried to behead his grandparents, was a convert to Islam, not just a rage-filled loser with a taste for Islamic State beheading videos. Entries on his Facebook page include semi-literate but unmistakable declarations of Islamic faith (the brackets are not interpolations by […]
Robert Spencer in Front Page: Reza Aslan: Trump Is Popular Because of ‘Islamophobia’
In FrontPage today I explore more lies and half-truths from everyone’s favorite Leftist media darling, Reza Aslan. It is abundantly clear now that Reza is in way over his head, and covers over his abject ignorance of basic facts by making things up and asserting them as fact while repeatedly insisting he is a “scholar,” […]
LA Times: Muslims in France fear reprisals after Paris jihad massacre
This is always the mainstream media preoccupation after a jihad attack: portraying Muslims as victims of a generally nonexistent “backlash.” There is always a steady stream of articles like this one after every fresh jihad murder, and never, ever any articles about Muslim communities redoubling their efforts to show themselves to be loyal citizens and […]
Media coverage of “Palestinian” jihad violence blames Israelis
Or no one at all, as Joseph’s Tomb apparently caught fire spontaneously. CAMERA says in the headline of its piece that this is “Bad Writing,” but it is much more insidious than that. This is a concerted and conscious endeavor to divert attention away from “Palestinian” jihad violence, and to give readers the impression that […]
LA Times: Hamas-linked CAIR’s Nihad Awad one of “the new civil rights leaders”
True to form for the mainstream media, Matt Pearce and Kurtis Lee are completely uncritical regarding CAIR’s self-description. Would they repeat without caveat or opposing voice the self-description of the American Freedom Defense Initiative? What do you think? Also, they don’t deem it fit to print the fact that CAIR is an unindicted co-conspirator in a […]
