Archbishop of Mosul decries EU’s silence on persecuted Christians, ‘I am more afraid for Europe than I am for Iraq’

Oct 23, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 20 Comments

Archbishop Najeeb Michaeel Moussa of Mosul, Iraq states in this important and incisive interview that “the European Union has undoubtedly lagged behind the European peoples who have courageously mobilized to express their solidarity with the Christians of the East in general and the Christians of Iraq in particular.” He also states: “I think that the […]

Iraqi security forces arrest ISIS Muslim cleric, he was serving as a preacher at several Mosul mosques

Jan 19, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

An Islamic State Muslim cleric? What? Doesn’t he know what every Western official knows, that the Islamic State has nothing to do with Islam? Why didn’t these mosques tell Abu Abd Al-Bari that he was misunderstanding their peaceful religion, and cast him out? “Iraqi police arrest ISIS religious official in eastern Mosul,” by Wladimir van […]

Courageous! “Avengers: Endgame” directors take on “Trumpian Islamophobia”

Sep 15, 2019 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

The Daily Beast really does think that Joe and Anthony Russo are being courageous in presenting Muslims in a positive manner, and the Russos claim that theirs is “the first film to represent Arabs in a positive way, Iraqis in a positive way and Muslims in a positive way.” That is, of course, absurd. Virtually […]

Keeping up with the Qardashians: Islamic State caliph al-Baghdadi names successor, Abdullah Qardash

Aug 11, 2019 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

The caliph without a caliphate, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, is apparently still alive, at least as of April 9, but may be in ill health, as he has apparently named a successor, Abdullah Qardash. Qardash “had served as a religious commissar for Al Qaeda before joining ISIS.” “Religious commissar”? Don’t these people realize that al-Qaeda and […]

Germany: Muslima let her five-year-old slave girl die of thirst

Dec 31, 2018 2:30 pm By Robert Spencer

Slavery is acceptable in Islam. The Qur’an has Allah telling Muhammad that he has given him girls as sex slaves: “Prophet, We have made lawful to you the wives to whom you have granted dowries and the slave girls whom God has given you as booty.” (Qur’an 33:50) Muhammad bought slaves: “Jabir (Allah be pleased […]

Iraq: Shia Muslim “Popular Mobilization Unit” blocks Christians from church, strafes church with gunfire

Dec 23, 2018 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Somehow the Shabak doesn’t seem to have gotten the message that Muslims in the West are selling to credulous Christians: that Muhammad taught tolerance and peace toward Christians. He didn’t really. He taught that the Christians should be warred against and subjugated under Sharia (cf. Qur’an 9:29), and that is why this kind of thing […]

Iraq: Sunnis enraged over Mosul school named after Iran’s Khomeini

Sep 19, 2017 12:34 pm By Robert Spencer

The biggest beneficiary of the U.S. intervention in Iraq and toppling of Saddam Hussein was the Islamic Republic of Iran. Iraq’s Sunnis were enraged and felt disenfranchised when the U.S.-sponsored elections resulted in the formation of a Shi’ite-dominated government, but that was inevitable, given the Shi’a plurality in the country. But that rage led to […]

Islamic State tells Muslims to poison food in Western supermarkets

Sep 7, 2017 8:25 am By Robert Spencer

This is nothing new. Al-Qaeda has long considered the contamination of food as a jihad mass murder tactic. And it has happened at least twice in Britain: UK: Shop-owners sold chocolate cake sprinkled with human faeces UK: Muslim who sprayed food with feces and urine can’t be deported Also: Food jihad? Muslim woman puts needles […]

ISIS to Trump: “You have your eyes on Raqqa and Mosul, but we have our eyes on Constantinople and Rome”

Jul 31, 2017 4:37 pm By Robert Spencer

You might think that Constantinople has already been conquered for Islam, but the Islamic State jihadis believe that no land is truly Islamic until it obeys their caliph. And they called it Constantinople because it is called that in ancient Islamic prophecy. “Imam Ahmad reported in his Musnad that Abdullah bin ‘Amr bin Al-‘As (may God […]

Islamic State: “Deflowered slave for sale, age 13. Body: slim, tall. Price: $9,000.”

Jul 11, 2017 2:58 pm By Robert Spencer

The seizure of Infidel girls and their use as sex slaves is sanctioned in the Qur’an. According to Islamic law, Muslim men can take “captives of the right hand” (Qur’an 4:3, 4:24, 33:50). The Qur’an says: “O Prophet! Lo! We have made lawful unto thee thy wives unto whom thou hast paid their dowries, and […]

Paradise is guaranteed to those who “kill and are killed” for Allah (Qur’an 9:111). “Seconds from detonation: Female suicide bomber holding her BABY is pictured moments before she blew the two of them up in Mosul in a bid to slaughter soldiers,” by Simon Holmes, Mailonline, July 9, 2017: A photograph has emerged of a […]

Iraq declares end to Islamic State caliphate, Islamic State territory reduced by 60%

Jun 30, 2017 9:18 am By Robert Spencer

The Islamic State still controls a territory as large as Belgium, but it is rapidly declining. The Islamic State caliphate was declared on June 29, 2014, and lasted exactly three years, to June 29, 2017. Islamic State jihadis, however, have been dispersed throughout the world (and have been welcomed back by foolish Western governments), and […]

Islamic State murders women and children for refusing sex

May 29, 2017 7:38 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

At least seven women and several children were executed by the Islamic State militants…The execution was carried out after the victims had allegedly refused to practice the so-called sexual jihad. The Islamic State “enshrines a theology of rape” and jihadis often recite the Qur’an with “religious devotion” before and after such atrocities against women and […]

Islamic State stones to death a youth accused of homosexuality in Mosul

Mar 28, 2017 9:36 am By Robert Spencer

Extremist? No. The Qur’an contains numerous condemnations of homosexual activity: “And [We had sent] Lot when he said to his people, ‘Do you commit such immorality as no one has preceded you with from among the worlds? Indeed, you approach men with desire, instead of women. Rather, you are a transgressing people.’…And We rained upon […]

Christians may never be able to return to Mosul: the Islamic State has bred new generation of jihadis

Mar 20, 2017 10:51 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

The Middle East is the cradle of Christianity, but jihadis have brought about the near-total disappearance of Christians from the Middle East. Now Christians may not be able to return to Mosul, as the Islamic State has “bred a new generation of child radicals” there. A vicar — Father Daniel — said that “the terror […]

Iraqi officers find Islamic State jihadis hidden among the refugees fleeing Mosul

Mar 1, 2017 10:49 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Iraqi officers have found Islamic State members fleeing Mosul and hiding among refugees, which should come as no surprise. The Islamic State vowed to infiltrate the refugee stream and also threatened that it was “coming to America.” Nonetheless, Western authorities and media continue to accuse anyone with valid concerns about this of being racist and […]

Video: Inside a devastated Orthodox church in Mosul

Feb 24, 2017 11:22 am By Robert Spencer

See the extent of what Christians in the Middle East have had to endure, while their fellow Christians in the West largely remain silent in pursuit of a futile and chimerical “dialogue.” This is an Orthodox church, but all Christians should have stood up and spoken out about what happened here. The Catholic Church in […]

Mosul: Burned UK passports found in abandoned Islamic State hideout

Jan 17, 2017 2:11 pm By Robert Spencer

The remarkable thing is that if these jihadis decide that they want to return to Britain, they will be admitted, despite having burned their passports and waged jihad with a state that considers itself to be at war with Britain. British authorities are only interested in keeping foes of jihad out of the country, not […]

Life in the Islamic State: “If you don’t convert to Islam we will kill your son”

Nov 27, 2016 9:27 am By Robert Spencer

“There is no compulsion in religion” (Qur’an 2:256) but in practice, all too often Islamic supremacists find room in that phrase for all manner of coercion. What constitutes “compulsion” is in the eye of the beholder. After all, the institutionalized subjugation of the dhimma, with its regular humiliation and harassment, from which one can be […]
