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

Pentagon nominee Anthony Tata apologizes for old ‘anti-Muslim,’ ‘anti-Obama’ tweets

Jul 2, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Biden has told black people “You ain’t black” if you’re still trying to decide whether to vote for him or Trump, but he got away with it. All he said in response to criticism was that he “shouldn’t have been such a wise guy,” and he remained as arrogant as ever. But “‘Joe Biden’s agenda […]

Does the “U.S. Pentagon” know what is in this Koran?

Mar 30, 2018 2:03 pm By Stephen M. Kirby

I was surprised to learn that there is a translation of the Koran that is supposedly being distributed by the United States Pentagon.  This Koran translation was put together by Dr. Abdul Hye and is available for purchase at the Final Revelation website. [1]  Here is the statement from one of the banners at that […]

Department of Defense’s booting of the SPLC is long overdue

Oct 4, 2017 10:25 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Yesterday Jihad Watch reported that the Department of Defense had dropped the SPLC after for some time using its materials on “extremism.” It’s about time. So many upstanding counter-terrorism experts and organizations (including Jihad Watch) have been demonized and called “hate groups” by this “demagogic bully” organization that won’t classify Antifa as a hate group. […]

Pentagon severs all ties with SPLC, after using group’s training materials on “extremism”

Oct 3, 2017 2:21 pm By Robert Spencer

This is most welcome and long overdue. The SPLC’s training materials on “extremism” wouldn’t point the Defense Department toward jihad terrorists and Sharia supremacists, but toward foes of jihad terror and others that the SPLC classifies as “extremists” along with the likes of the KKK and neo-Nazis. This hard-Left moneymaking and incitement machine’s latest dossier on […]

Jihadis in the U.S. military? “Security risks” found in Obama’s military recruitment of foreigners

Aug 2, 2017 1:01 pm By Robert Spencer

Was there anything that Obama did that did not weaken the United States and make it more vulnerable to jihad attacks? “Pentagon investigators find ‘security risks’ in Obama-era program to recruit foreigners into US military,” by Keith Griffith, Dailymail.com, August 2, 2017 (thanks to David): Defense Department investigators have found ‘potential security risks’ in a […]

Pentagon yields to Hamas-linked CAIR demand to ‘review’ counter-terror training

Apr 27, 2017 10:12 am By Robert Spencer

“Air Force chaplain Walid Habash has been assigned to begin reviewing slides from Dunleavy’s lesson material later this week. Habash, however, Sperry reported, received his Islamic education from a Muslim Brotherhood school in Virginia, the Graduate School of Islamic and Social Sciences, which was raided by federal agents in 2002 as part of a post-9/11 […]

As global jihad advances, Obama Pentagon mulls easing rules for obese, pot smokers

Nov 3, 2016 2:50 pm By Robert Spencer

Billions to the Islamic Republic of Iran. A massive influx of Muslim migrants, among whom will inevitably be an unknowable number of murderous Islamic jihadists. And now this. You’d almost think Obama wanted to weaken the United States, except that would be inconceivable…wouldn’t it? “Pentagon may ease recruiting rules for obese people, pot smokers and […]

Pentagon still unsure of whether to link Islam with violent jihad

Oct 7, 2016 9:32 am By Robert Spencer

Islamic jihadists routinely link Islam with violent jihad. In all their communiques and all their appeals for support, and in all their attempts to recruit peaceful Muslims, they invoke the Qur’an and Muhammad. The fact that this is controversial and still being discussed fifteen years after 9/11 is an indication of how deep the denial, […]

Pentagon spent hundreds of millions of dollars for fake al-Qaeda videos

Oct 3, 2016 8:36 pm By Robert Spencer

There weren’t enough real ones? The Pentagon could think of no better strategy to track al-Qaeda jihadis than to produce propaganda for the enemy? The Obama Pentagon has lied repeatedly to the American people to give them the impression that U.S. efforts against the Islamic State have been more effective than they really have been. […]

Seven Afghan military trainees have disappeared from U.S. military bases this month

Sep 28, 2016 9:40 am By Robert Spencer

They may simply be seizing the opportunity not to return to Afghanistan. Or they may be jihadis. No way to tell. But to question these training programs on the grounds that they may constitute a threat to national security would have been “Islamophobic.” “Missing Afghans Raise Terrorism Fears,” by Bill Gertz, Washington Free Beacon, September […]

Pentagon quietly studying Islamic theology to understand the Islamic State and al-Qaeda

Sep 25, 2016 7:48 pm By Robert Spencer

It is just common sense for them to study the texts that form the motivating ideology behind the global jihad. But they have to do it quietly, behind the scenes, because the Obama administration is committed as a matter of policy to denying that Islam has anything to do with jihad. This denial of reality […]

Pentagon pushes likely forged document to show Islamic State in “desperation” mode and “beginning to feel the pressure”

Dec 23, 2015 9:09 am By Robert Spencer

More Baghdad Bob antics from the Pentagon. “Desperate: Pentagon Peddles Suspect Docs to Prove ISIS ‘Evil,’” by Jordan Schachtel and Edwin Mora, Breitbart, December 22, 2015: Pentagon spokesman Col. Steve Warren highlighted what may be a forged document to insist that the Islamic State is in “desperation” mode and “beginning to feel the pressure” of […]

U.S. knows ISIS hiding spots, won’t launch strikes for fear of civilian deaths

Dec 15, 2015 11:51 pm By Robert Spencer

No one wants civilian deaths. How many civilian deaths in the US will result from this decision? “U.S. has mapped ISIS hiding spots, but won’t launch strikes for fear of civilian deaths,” by Guy Taylor, Washington Times, December 14, 2015: In a secret project tied to the overall U.S. campaign against the Islamic State, intelligence […]

Whistleblowers accuse US military of cooking intel to exaggerate success against the Islamic State and Taliban

Nov 22, 2015 9:32 am By Robert Spencer

We have seen accusations of this kind before. Given the Obama Administration’s thorough politicization of so much of government that was not politicized before, it is not remotely implausible. “US Military May Have ‘Cooked’ ISIL Intel, Exaggerating Own Success,” Sputnik News, November 22, 2015: Whistleblowers accused the US military of manipulating intelligence data on its […]

50 intel analysts say info on Islamic State cooked to give illusion of victory

Sep 10, 2015 6:23 am By Robert Spencer

“The fact that so many people complained suggests there are deep-rooted, systemic problems in how the U.S. military command charged with the war against the self-proclaimed Islamic State assesses intelligence.” Indeed. It shows that it doesn’t assess intelligence at all. It shows that it isn’t really interested in fighting or defeating the Islamic State. It […]

Pentagon not targeting Islamic State training camps

Aug 29, 2015 12:04 pm By Robert Spencer

“If we know the location of these camps, and the president wants to destroy ISIS, why are the camps still functioning?” Excellent question. And no answer was forthcoming. Why not? Is it because there could be no possible explanation for this that makes sense in terms of American national security and that of the free […]

Robert Spencer in FrontPage: Obama: “Ideologies Are Not Defeated with Guns”

Jul 9, 2015 5:21 am By Robert Spencer

Or with words, or with anything, apparently. My latest in FrontPage: Speaking at the Pentagon on Monday, Barack Obama once again proclaimed that victory over the Islamic State was just around the corner. He said that the Islamic State’s “recent losses in both Syria and Iraq prove that ISIL can and will be defeated. The […]

Obama: “Ideologies are not defeated with guns”

Jul 6, 2015 7:15 pm By Robert Spencer

1. Yes, they are. Cf. National Socialism. 2. The United States is not trying to defeat the Islamic State, or the global jihad in general, with “a more attractive and more compelling vision.” Instead, we supervised the installations of constitutions that enshrined Sharia as the highest law of the land in both Iraq and Afghanistan.

US having trouble finding moderate Syrians willing to fight the Islamic State

Jun 30, 2015 10:39 am By Robert Spencer

“The main problem thus far has been finding enough Syrian recruits untainted by extremist affiliations or disqualified by physical or other flaws.” And so currently there are under 100 men receiving this training. No one, however, is willing to examine the larger implications of this. The Pentagon is pouring money into this program anyway. “Sputtering […]

That Imaginary War Room

Jun 17, 2015 8:38 pm By Hugh Fitzgerald

We have all had fantasies — have we not? — of being President or Chief of Staff, and being present, somewhere in the Pentagon, in a War Room that, we like to think, directs that campaign of self-defense against the hydra-headed Jihad. And we like to imagine, too, what might go on in that room, […]
