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

UK: Manchester jihadi’s unrepentant friend, a convicted jihad terrorist organizer, to be released from jail

Nov 28, 2020 12:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 14 Comments

Authorities wrangle over whether or not Abdalraouf Abdallah poses a threat, when it is obvious that he does. The decision-makers who are planning to free Abdallah do not understand what the jihad ideology is all about, where it comes from, how rapidly it can be spread, and the danger it poses to free societies. They […]

UK: Security guard ignored report about Manchester jihad bomber over fear of being called racist

Oct 30, 2020 2:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 16 Comments

This demonstrates the massive damage that labels such as “Islamophobia” and “racism” cause. In Western countries, authorities are all too often afraid to do their duty so as to avoid such labels. The rule of law is weakened as a result. In this catastrophic instance in Manchester, 22 people were murdered and over 800 wounded, […]

UK: Manchester jihad bomber was on security services radar 18 times, but officials did nothing

Oct 3, 2020 1:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 13 Comments

This is a reflection of just how woefully and willfully ignorant British intelligence and law enforcement officials, and those officials all over the West, remain about the threat of jihad terror, and the consequences of their refusal to come to grips with its motivating ideology. MI5 likely let Salman Abedi go multiple times because politically […]

UK: Manchester jihad mass murderer visited jailed jihadi before attack, but MI5 did not bother to open investigation

Sep 15, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer 21 Comments

MI5 was probably too busy making sure that foes of jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women didn’t enter the country to divert valuable resources to something as trivial as stopping a jihad mass murderer. To have done so would have been “Islamophobic.” “Manchester bomber visited jailed jihadist before attack,” by Charlotte Wace and Duncan […]

UK: Judge says Manchester jihad bomb plotter wanted to advance ‘Islamism,’ which is ‘abhorrent’ to most Muslims

Aug 23, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Manchester Arena bomb plotter Hashem Abedi “has been sentenced to a minimum of 55 years in jail for the murder of 22 people in the Manchester Arena bombing.” The judge added: “The motivation for them was to advance the ideology of Islamism, a matter distinct to and abhorrent to the vast majority for those who […]

UK: Manchester jihad mass murderer used government benefits to buy bomb parts

Feb 13, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

Non-Muslims paying for the upkeep of Muslims is a Qur’anic dictate: “Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the […]

UK: Prosecutor says Manchester jihadi’s brother “just as guilty of the murder of the 22 killed as was his brother”

Feb 7, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

What no one is asking is where the Abedi brothers learned about Islam. What is the rest of the family doing? What is being taught at their mosque? Are these questions being investigated? Why not? “Manchester bomber’s brother ‘just as guilty’: Prosecutor,” AFP, February 4, 2020: The brother of Manchester Arena suicide bomber Salman Abedi […]

UK: Accused jihad mass murderer, brother of Manchester jihad murderer, gets legal aid, families of victims don’t

Aug 6, 2019 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer

“Other hate figures who have been allowed legal aid include Lee Rigby’s killers Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale, extremist preacher Anjem Choudary and jihadi bride Shamima Begum.” Of course they are entitled to legal representation, but why should they receive taxpayer-funded legal aid while the victims of jihad attacks get nothing? How will Britain possibly […]

UK: Imam at Manchester jihad mass murderer’s mosque called for armed jihad before the massacre

Aug 17, 2018 9:05 am By Robert Spencer

The Daily Mail reports this, and then vilifies foes of jihad mass murder. That’s just one indication of why shattered, staggering, dhimmi Britain is in the fix it’s in. “Imam at Didsbury mosque where Manchester bomber and his family worshipped was recorded ‘calling for armed jihad’ in sermon six months before deadly attack,” by Zoie […]

The Royal Navy rescued him. He showed his gratitude by murdering 22 in jihad massacre in the UK.

Jul 31, 2018 9:08 am By Robert Spencer

Here in a nutshell is why hearts-and-minds initiatives will never succeed in winning over Muslim countries as reliable long-term allies. As I show in my new book The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS, the jihad imperative to wage war against unbelievers is not canceled by the friendliness or helpfulness of those unbelievers. “Act […]

UK: Muslim neighbor of Manchester Arena jihad mass murderer arrested in connection with that attack

Jul 8, 2017 12:11 pm By Robert Spencer

A nation at war, that still refuses to admit that it is at war. Every jihad attack is still treated as a separate criminal incident, with no recognition that there is any overarching initiative involved. “Man arrested at Liverpool John Lennon Airport in connection with Manchester Arena attack,” by Paul Britton and Alex Pesic, Manchester […]

Libya blasts Britain for not sharing intelligence prior to Manchester jihad attack

Jun 14, 2017 6:41 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

The extraordinary outburst about the way Britain shares information with Libya came in the wake of the terror attack carried out by Salman Abedi Libya, which has adopted Sharia, is beset with troubles from Islamic State strongholds, warring government factions and extensive corruption. Sharing intelligence with such a country to fight jihad would be counterproductive. […]

Contrary to widespread reports, Manchester jihad mass murderer’s mosque did not report him to police

May 31, 2017 9:14 am By Robert Spencer

The Telegraph had this on May 25: “Mr Ramadan said he understood that Abedi had been placed on a ‘watch list’ because the mosque reported him to the authorities for his extremist views. A well-placed source at Didsbury Mosque confirmed it had contacted the Home Office’s Prevent anti-radicalisation programme as a result.” But it was […]

Manchester jihad mass murderer used taxpayer-funded student loan and benefits to fund jihad plot

May 29, 2017 6:35 pm By Robert Spencer

Salman Abedi received thousands of dollars worth of student loans. Yet there are still Leftist and Muslim spokesmen who are trying to sell the public on the idea that it was his “alienation” and “marginalization” in a “racist,” “Islamophobic” British society that led him to jihad. “Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the […]

And so it happened. Why is this mosque still open? “CLERICS OF HATE Preachers at mosque where Manchester bomber prayed called for homosexuals, British soldiers and non-believers to be killed,” by Ben Lazarus, The Sun, May 28, 2017 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): THE mosque where bomber Salman Abedi ­worshipped hosted hate preachers who […]

Manchester jihad bombing: 14 Muslims detained in Britain and Libya

May 29, 2017 8:20 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

A total of 14 people are in detention in Britain and Libya over Monday’s suicide bombing at a pop concert in the English city of Manchester by a British-born man of Libyan origin. The unfolding of the high-profile Manchester bombing case highlights what counter-jihadists have been warning about for years: that a globalized jihad network […]

Salman Abedi called teacher ‘Islamophobic’ for condemning jihad suicide bombings

May 27, 2017 8:10 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Considering the widespread atrocities going on in the Muslim world, there should be an outcry from Muslims condemning jihad/martyrdom suicide bombings in the name of their religion, as well as condemnation for the religiously sanctioned beating of wives, killing of gays, apostates, etc. Instead, the outcry is against anyone who speaks the truth about these […]

Manchester jihad mass murderer’s father and brothers arrested, linked to the Islamic State and al-Qaeda

Jihad: the family business. Remember: “Salman and his brother Ismail worshipped at Didsbury mosque, where their father, who is known as Abu Ismail within the community, is a well-known figure. ‘He used to do the five and call the adhan. He has an absolutely beautiful voice. And his boys learned the Qur’an by heart.’” His […]
