What do authorities think when they hear this news? What do they think that the U.S. will be like in twenty or thirty years? Do they think that every last one of these Muhammads will grow up to be upstanding, loyal, patriotic American citizens with portraits of Zuhdi Jasser on their walls? Does it ever […]
Moroccan oncologists blast camel-urine cancer treatment project
“Narrated Anas: The climate of Medina did not suit some people, so the Prophet (ﷺ) ordered them to follow his shepherd, i.e. his camels, and drink their milk and urine (as a medicine). So they followed the shepherd that is the camels and drank their milk and urine till their bodies became healthy. Then they […]
Canada: Imam says Rome will be conquered by Muslims, as Constantinople was
Because Muhammad prophesied it, you see. But whatever may be the objective merits of that prophecy (i.e., none), the fact that this imam in Canada believes it, and other Muslims believe it, make the prospects of peaceful coexistence on a longterm basis between Muslims and Christians in Europe dim at best. “Canada Friday Sermon by […]
The Same God Question – Part 3: ‘By their fruits you shall know them…’
(Continued from Part 1 and Part 2) “After the San Bernardino attacks, everybody was saying, ‘If only Americans knew more about Islam, they wouldn’t be so afraid.’ Actually, it’s the reverse.” — Bill Maher ‘I have been commanded to fight…’ The condemnations of Christianity in the Koran (cited in Part 2) have real-world implications, as […]
Obama: “Islam prohibits terrorism, for the Qur’an says whoever kills an innocent, it is as if he has killed all mankind”
Obama said: “The Qur’an says whoever kills an innocent, it is as if he has killed all mankind.” This is what the Qur’an really says: Because of that, We decreed upon the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption in the land — it is as if […]
World’s oldest Qur’an supports claim that an existing text was changed to create the Islamic holy book
“This gives more ground to what have been peripheral views of the Quran’s genesis, like that Muhammad and his early followers used a text that was already in existence and shaped it to fit their own political and theological agenda, rather than Muhammad receiving a revelation from Heaven.” Or that others later used a text […]
Mark Durie: “Anyone saying ‘Islam Is A Religion Of Peace’ needs to read this”
“One may well ask how ‘the religion of peace’ became a brand of Islam, for the phrase cannot be found in the Qur’an, nor in the teachings of Muhammad.” “Anyone Using The Phrase ‘Islam Is A Religion Of Peace’ Needs To Read This”, by Mark Durie, Independent Journal, December 17, 2015: Days after the ISIS-inspired terrorist attack […]
Medina—The First Muslim Refugee Resettlement Program
“Whether or not a particular group of refugees has been infiltrated by ISIS, there remains the fact that many refugees subscribe to the same general worldview held by members of the Islamic State. After all, they’ve been steeped in the same cultural-religious milieu that produced the terrorists.” “Medina—The First Muslim Refugee Resettlement Program,” by William Kilpatrick, Crisis Magazine, […]
New Islamic State video taunts U.S.: “Islam’s enemies” will be destroyed by “the flames of war”
This video highlights yet again why it is so wrongheaded for Obama and other Western leaders to claim that the Islamic State has nothing to do with Islam. Islam is the basis of its case to the world and its appeal among Muslims. To ignore and deny that is to give up any means of […]
Robert Spencer’s biography of Muhammad tops bestseller list, topping Karen Armstrong and Tariq Ramadan
I wrote my biography of Muhammad, The Truth About Muhammad, nine years ago, but he hasn’t done much of anything since then, and in this age of escalating jihad violence, people are increasingly curious about the man who inspired it all and continues to do so. The Truth About Muhammad has raced back to the […]
Robert Spencer in FrontPage: Muhammad Had “British Values”?
In FrontPage today I discuss a new attempt to sell more Islam in the schools in the UK — as the solution to “extremism,” of course. How best to fight against the global jihad? The claim is increasingly common in the West that the best way is…more Islam. “This is a golden opportunity,” wrote the […]
UK’s Independent: Muhammad had British values, so fight “extremism” by teaching more Islam in schools
This is just the sort of thing the addled Leftists of the Independent eat up by the truckload. But let’s look into some of the British values that Islamic tradition holds Muhammad as having taught: Women must cover everything but their face and hands: “‘O Asma’, when a woman reaches the age of menstruation, it […]
Canada: Security company apologizes after guard insults Muhammad
“Your Mohammed prophet, I don’t give a damn…I can say whatever I want.” No, you can’t. If he had unleashed a “vulgar rant” against Christ, do you think it would have been a story in the Canadian media? Of course not. But the Muslim cabbies at the Toronto airport got together and began screaming “Allahu […]
The Spectre of Muhammad
Probably everyone remembers the old film series about the undefeated British intelligence agent, James Bond. Sean Connery was perfect in these movies. But I’m not writing about him or about the films, the artistic value of which is debatable. As I started to write this article, I thought the organization “Spectre,” which opposes British intelligence […]
Robert Spencer in PJM: Is free speech about Islam still possible in the US?
At PJ Media today I provide a case study of how the freedom of speech is under threat today: Do we really still have freedom of speech in this country? An absurd question. Right? We still have the First Amendment, we still have the freedom to criticize any belief system and any individual. Don’t we? […]
Strategies of Denial Revisited (Part II)
One of the ways, paradoxically, to deny or minimize the threat of Islam is to focus only on the Qur’an, and then on selective quotation from the handful of verses that appear to reassure, not threaten. There is 2.256 (“no compulsion in religion”) and 5.32 (an injunction against murder) without the considerable modifying of that […]
Pamela Geller, Breitbart: Clear Channel Refuses AFDI Ads Countering ICNA’s Lies with the Truth About Muhammad
As I wrote recently, Muhammad is now the man we all must love — or else. And it is now an established principle in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave: threaten someone with death unless he or she does your bidding, and not only will he or she do your […]
Clear Channel runs ad praising Muhammad, refuses ad criticizing Muhammad
As I wrote recently, Muhammad is now the man we all must love. Clear Channel, as my AFDI colleague Pamela Geller explains here, shows what that means: they readily accepted the Muslim Brotherhood group ICNA’s deceptive ad about Muhammad, but refused our ad critical of Muhammad, and even refused our ad quoting Muhammad from mainstream […]
William Kilpatrick — ‘Needed: A New Church Policy toward Islam, Pt. 2’
In our times and culture, speaking truth is so radical a concept that the following sounds almost revolutionary. As with Part 1, these questions and discussions apply to all Christian communions, and indeed all free peoples: “Church policy should at least be redirected toward telling the truth to fellow Catholics. Right now, Catholics are being […]
William Kilpatrick: ‘How to Alienate Moderate Muslims’
“If the moderate Muslim was inclined to resist the radicals, he will be less likely to do so if he looks around and notices that no one else is resisting… Why should he stick his neck out?” William Kilpatrick makes a compelling case for resisting encroaching Islamization and the creeping advance of sharia culture in […]
