“Shareef is expected to receive no more than 18 months when she is be sentenced in US District Court in Riverside.” Good. And after serving a small part of that sentence and then being released, she will become a loyal, patriotic American citizen, right? Rafia Sultana Shareef is an also an active member of the […]
Four Years Ago Today: A Tribute to the Victims of the San Bernardino Jihad Attack
Four years ago today, at 10:58 PST on December 2, 2015, Syed Farook and his wife Tashfeen Malik began shooting his own friends and colleagues at the San Bernardino County Department of Public Health. By 11:04, the first police arrived at the scene, but Farook and Malik had already escaped. Four hours later (at 3:08), […]
Robert Spencer in PJ Media: How Islamophobia Endangers Us All
The fear of being labeled a bigot has cost lives. My latest in PJ Media: Counterterror analyst Paul Sperry reported in the New York Post last Saturday: [The New York Police Department] censored an anti-terror handbook to appease offended Muslims, even though it has accurately predicted radicalization patterns in recent ‘homegrown’ terror cases.” So it […]
Virginia: Muslim bought AK-47 the day after San Bernardino jihad massacre
Clearly Harun Ash-Shababi was inspired by the feats of his coreligionists in San Bernardino, and wanted to emulate them. And here again we have a convert to Islam who got the idea that his new religion commanded him to commit treason and mass murder. Yet there is no study of conversion to Islam in connection […]
One year after San Bernardino jihad massacre, city aims to prevent anti-Muslim hate crimes
They’re doing this despite the fact that “apart from some incidents, residents say their worst fears about a backlash in their own community never materialized.” In reality, Jews are targeted for hate attacks twice more often than Muslims; where is any city in the United States doing anything about anti-Semitism? Do you have to pull […]
San Bernardino police chief: Jihad murderers motivated by Christmas decorations at party
“She didn’t think that a Muslim should have to participate in a non-Muslim holiday or event,” San Bernardino police chief Jarrod Burguan, in a statement with implications that are simply staggering. The message is clear: Muslims must always and in every case be accommodated. Nothing whatsoever that could possibly offend the poor dears must ever […]
62 ISIS jihad plots in US in one year, over half by immigrants or their children
The solution: President Hillary Clinton will increase Muslim migration by 550%, and excoriate anyone who opposes her as a racist, bigoted Islamophobe. “EXCLUSIVE: America’s enemies within – SIXTY-TWO ISIS attackers and ‘plotters’ in just a year and more than half of them are immigrants or their children,” by Freya Berry, Dailymail.com, October 6, 2016: The […]
Israel teaching American police chiefs strategies on counter-terrorism
As the media and leftist authorities continue to cover up the extent of the jihad threat America faces, US police chiefs are on a delegation to Israel for advanced counter-terrorism training techniques. The chiefs from Orlando and San Bernardino, who recently experienced unprecedented jihad attacks in their cities, are among the delegation. John McMahon, sheriff […]
FBI arrests brother of San Bernardino jihad murderer and 2 others
Marquez got the killers their rifles and attended the same mosque that they attended. This was a jihad terror cell that appears to have been attempting to expand its ranks via marriage fraud. “FBI arrests brother of San Bernardino terrorist and 2 others on marriage fraud charges,” by Richard Winton and James Queally, Los Angeles […]
Raymond Ibrahim: Revive Clear Thinking and the Jihad Dies
Because it is my field of study, one would expect I’d have much to say immediately after jihadi attacks of the sort that recently occurred in Brussels (35 killed), or San Bernardino (14 killed), or Paris (130). Ironically, I don’t: such attacks are ultimately symptoms of what I do deem worthy of discussion, namely, root […]
Why you should side with Apple, not the FBI, in the San Bernardino iPhone case
“What the FBI wants to do would make us less secure, even though it’s in the name of keeping us safe from harm. Powerful governments, democratic and totalitarian alike, want access to user data for both law enforcement and social control. We cannot build a backdoor that only works for a particular type of government, […]
San Bernardino jihad murderer’s iCloud password changed while iPhone was in government possession
“The FBI wants us to make a new version of the iPhone operating system, circumventing several important security features, and install it on [the shooter’s] iPhone,” Cook added. “In the wrong hands, this software — which does not exist today — would have the potential to unlock any iPhone in someone’s physical possession.” It appears […]
Obama: No “specific and credible information about an attack on our homeland”
Watch out for those right-wing extremists, but otherwise relax. Jihad? Pah! It’s a Religion of Peace! In September 2014, the Islamic State issued a lengthy communiqué calling upon Muslims in the West to murder non-Muslims. It included the exhortation to “strive to your best and kill any disbeliever, whether he be French, American, or from […]
Raymond Ibrahim: Islamic Jihad — Symptom of a Western Cause
As someone specializing in Islamic jihadism, one would expect I’d have much to say immediately after jihadi attacks of the sort that recently occurred in San Bernardino, or Paris, or Mali, where a total of about 180 dead. Ironically, I don’t: such attacks are ultimately symptoms of what I do deem worthy of talk, namely, […]
Obama: After SB attacks, we must affirm that we love our Muslim neighbors
Prejudice and discrimination are indeed never justified, and should always be rejected. And Obama does say that “Muslims around the world have to keep rejecting any twisted interpretation of Islam,” but he devotes only half a sentence to that, without going into any specifics such as calling on them to institute programs in mosques to […]
Obama to NSC & FBI: “Downplay” jihad terror angle of San Bernardino
“This source added that as soon as the shooting took place, Obama convened a meeting with the National Security Council and the heads of other federal enforcement agencies to discuss a public relations strategy.” So his immediate concern after the jihad massacre was not for the victims or their families. He took no pains to […]
The Ideology of the Cancer Cell
The mass murder in San Bernardino, California—a terrorist attack the most prudent of us expected and saw coming—is proof that, no matter where Islam takes root, no matter how moderate and benign the perpetrators of these mass murders previously projected themselves, there remains for every Muslim a jumping off point: the option of jihad. As […]
Obama: We can’t let “this fight be defined as a war between America and Islam”
The “millions of patriotic Muslim-Americans who reject their hateful ideology” are not doing anything to counter it. There is no program in any mosque or Islamic school in the U.S. teaching young Muslims why they should reject the understanding of Islam that the Islamic State propagates. Obama’s solicitude for these patriotic Muslim-Americans rules out any […]
SB jihad murderer pledged allegiance to the Islamic State during the attack
Workplace violence! “MASS SHOOTING: San Bernardino female attacker pledged allegiance to ISIS, officials say,” by Vince Cestone, CNN, December 3, 2015: UPDATE – Friday 7:31 AM As the San Bernardino attack was happening, investigators believe the female shooter, Tashfeen Malik, posted on Facebook, pledging allegiance to ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, three U.S. officials familiar […]
Jihad murderer Syed Farook memorized Qur’an, frequented San Bernardino mosque
How did he miss all the Qur’an’s peaceful passages that are so patently obvious to John Kerry, David Cameron, Pope Francis and other learned imams? Why didn’t the true, peaceful Islam that he undoubtedly learned at Dar-Al-Uloom Al-Islamiyah of America in San Bernardino prevent him from falling for the false, hijacked Islam that he presumably […]
