Despite the devastation being wrought throughout the globe by Islamic jihadists, and the accelerated threat to the West since the emergence of the Islamic State, Western leaders continue to minimize this threat, believe jihadist propaganda, and adhere to political correctness. Jihadists were slaughtering long before the Islamic State appeared, but the Islamic State’s zeal for […]
Gay Pride celebrators ignore the threat of jihadists and blame Republicans
A shocking display of the dangerous and foolish blame game in the wake of the Pulse massacre turned up at the New York City LGBT Pride parade this past weekend, with a group carrying the rainbow banner featuring the large black-emboldened text: “REPUBLICAN HATE KILLS”. Aside from the facts that jihadists hate gays and that […]
Al Qaeda urges lone wolves to target whites in America to clarify its message of jihad
Obama’s mulish resolve to steer clear of terms that identify America’s worst enemy, Islamic jihad, has been unexpectedly challenged by al Qaeda, of all groups. Since the Pulse massacre, Obama and his leftist comrades have erratically shifted blame to targets such as Republicans, national attitudes toward LGBT people, and gun owners. In the face of […]
FBI: No evidence that Orlando jihad mass murderer had gay lovers
The story of the man who claimed that Mateen was his gay lover, and that he killed out of revenge, not because of jihad, has gone around the world, and has been used to further the ongoing government and mainstream media project of absolving Islam for crimes done in its name and in accord with […]
Gay lover says Mateen’s jihadist rampage was really an HIV revenge rampage
Mateen’s alleged gay lover stated that Mateen was not motivated by jihad, but by revenge for contracting HIV after a gay threesome. Whatever the claim is by this man, there are other facts that support Mateen’s allegiance to Islamic jihad. Omar Mateen and his wife cased Disney as a possible target; Disney notified FBI that […]
NPR whitewashes Mateen’s jihadist motive, calling his pledge of allegiance to the Islamic State a publicity stunt
In the name of political correctness, the leftist ideologues are at it again, abetting jihadists by publicly denying their destructive ambitions for the West. This time, it’s NPR stating that Mateen “evoked ISIS as a ‘cover story’ to gain more publicity.” This make-it-up-as-you-go approach has no limits in the propaganda war against truth. It’s a […]
Stop minimizing the reality of lone wolf jihadists
The New York Post article below derides Obama’s diminishing of the seriousness of the lone wolf phenomenon. Obama dismissed Orlando jihad murderer Omar Mateen as “just another ‘lone actor’ operating in isolation, unconnected to any larger group of supporters.” Those who minimize the gravity of jihadist ideology have been the ones busy chanting about gun […]
Omar Mateen told police he’d strap bombs to hostages
Many early reports said he had a suicide vest or an explosive vest. Now this report says he didn’t. It would be easier to believe authorities if they didn’t so often lie to the public. In any case, if he didn’t have explosives, then Mateen was probably attempting to “strike terror into the hearts of […]
Orlando jihadi texted wife during attack; she responded that she loved him
She told him she loved him while he was in the midst of jihad mass murder on a grand scale. How heartwarming. Obviously they shared the same values: that the mass murder of Infidels was a righteous act before Allah. Why hasn’t she been arrested yet? She was obviously complicit. “Orlando shooter texted wife during […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: When a Petulant President Presumes to Give Lessons in Language
And let me make a final point. For a while now, the main contribution of some of my friends on the other side of the aisle have made in the fight against ISIL is to criticize the administration and me for not using the phrase “radical Islam.” That’s the key, they tell us. We cannot […]
Mateen’s murderous Facebook posts reveal his hatred of the West and loyalty to the Islamic State
A Fox exclusive has revealed the violent, chilling Facebook posts of Omar Mateen before he went on his shooting spree; among them: “I pledge my alliance to (ISIS leader) abu bakr al Baghdadi..may Allah accept me,” Mateen wrote in one post early Sunday morning. “The real muslims will never accept the filthy ways of the […]
Video: Robert Spencer on Hannity on the Orlando jihad massacre
Last night I appeared on Fox News’ Sean Hannity Show discussing the Orlando jihad massacre and the politically correct willful ignorance that led to it happening.
Robert Spencer in PJ Media: Law Enforcement ‘Never Guessed’ Gay Club Would Be Targeted by Jihad
The politically correct willful ignorance that dominates our response to the jihad threat has lethal consequences. My latest in PJ Media: While Omar Mateen was casing other gay clubs to determine where he wanted to commit jihad mass murder, law enforcement officials had no idea a jihadi might ever consider such targets. On Sunday, the […]
Omar Mateen was gay, was a regular at club where he committed jihad mass murder
In the never-ending quest to exonerate Islam of responsibility for atrocities committed in its name and in accord with its teachings, the latest scenario is that Omar Mateen had homosexual desires and was deeply conflicted, finally lashing out violently against those who represented the tendencies he hated within himself. As the New York Daily News […]
Video: Robert Spencer on Fox’s Geraldo Rivera Reports on the Orlando jihad massacre
On Sunday night I appeared briefly on Fox’s Geraldo Rivera Reports to discuss the jihad massacre at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida.
Orlando jihad massacre witness: someone inside Pulse club was holding the doors, keeping people in
Maybe this person was wrong: maybe in the confusion and panic, it just seemed as if someone was holding the doors. Or maybe Omar Mateen had an accomplice in his jihad massacre.
Robert Spencer in FrontPage: Ramadan in Orlando, 50 Dead, 53 Wounded
In FrontPage today I discuss the familiar denial and obfuscation from the Left in the face of the jihad threat: It was the worst mass shooting ever on American soil: Omar Mateen, 29, opened fire at the Pulse, an Orlando, Florida gay nightclub, on Saturday night. Mateen murdered at least fifty people and wounded another […]
Obama on Orlando: Too early to know “precise motivations of the killer”
He pledged allegiance to the Islamic State and the Islamic State claimed responsibility. What could the motive possibly be? Will Obama amend his remarks and acknowledge that the motive is now perfectly clear? Don’t hold your breath. “Terror in Orlando: 50 killed in shooting rampage at gay club; gunman pledged allegiance to ISIS,” by Hayley […]
Orlando gay club jihadi reportedly recited prayers to Allah during attack
After calling 911 and pledging allegiance to the Islamic State. “Fifty dead in Orlando gay nightclub shooting, worst mass killing in U.S. history; gunman reportedly pledged allegiance to Islamic State,” by Matt Pearce and Del Quentin Wilber, Los Angeles Times, June 12, 2016: A heavily armed gunman who had reportedly pledged allegiance to Islamic State […]
Islamic State claims responsibility for Orlando gay club jihad massacre
And he pledged allegiance to the Islamic State. “Orlando Nightclub Shooting,” Reuters, June 12, 2016: A man armed with an assault rifle and a handgun stormed a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida, and killed 50 people in the worst U.S. mass shooting in history. Here’s what we know so far: The shooter, identified by authorities […]
