Yet another blow to the rapidly sinking credibility of this hate-and-smear organization. But the problem really isn’t the SPLC; the problem is the legitimacy that the establishment media and many people who ought to know better grant to the SPLC. If that were taken away, it wouldn’t matter who the SPLC put on its hit […]
SPLC drops two jihadis, including Orlando mass murderer Omar Mateen, from its “right-wing terrorists” list
In yet another serious blow to its credibility, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) listed two jihad terrorists, Omar Mateen and Luqman Abdullah, on its “Terror from the Right” list of “right-wing terrorists.” Now they have quietly dropped Mateen and Abdullah from this list, but the fact that they were on it in the first […]
47 groups weighing SPLC lawsuit warn editors: “You are complicit” in “hate group” defamation
Yes, they are complicit indeed. No one would care that the Southern Poverty Law Center smeared foes of jihad terror and Sharia oppression as “anti-Muslim extremists” were it not for the fact that the establishment media takes this seriously and consistently presents the SPLC was if it were a respectable and trustworthy organization. The media […]
“About 60 organizations” considering suit against SPLC after $3,000,000 Nawaz settlement
Count me in. For years, the SPLC’s spurious “hate group” designation has been used to demonize, stigmatize, and marginalize foes of jihad terror and Sharia oppression. This has gone on long enough. “‘About 60 Organizations’ Are Considering a Lawsuit Against the SPLC Following $3M Nawaz Settlement,” by Tyler O’Neil, PJ Media, June 19, 2018: No […]
SPLC apologizes, pays $3,375,000 to Maajid Nawaz for smearing him as “anti-Muslim extremist”
It’s good to see the hard-Left smear machine the SPLC lose a battle, but it is likely that it only gave in to Nawaz because he is a Leftist. The rest of us on the list continue to be defamed and marginalized by our presence on the list, since the establishment media continues to cite […]
Antifa and SPLC intimidation and threats get Wisconsin and Minnesota counter-jihad conferences canceled
In The Coming of the Third Reich, historian Richard J. Evans explains how, in the early days of National Socialist Germany, Stormtroopers (Brownshirts) “organized campaigns against unwanted professors in the local newspapers [and] staged mass disruptions of their lectures.” To express dissent from Nazi positions became a matter of taking one’s life into one’s hands. […]
Robert Spencer video: Lefties batter Nitkowski, drive him from the game
In this new video, I discuss the Leftist persecution and harassment of former pitcher and current broadcaster C. J. Nitkowski for the crime of retweeting a tweet from a source they consider “far right.”
Robert Spencer in FrontPage: Lefties Batter Nitkowski, Drive Him From the Game
Enforcers of China’s Cultural Revolution in action. My latest in FrontPage: Orwell’s Thought Police and the enforcers of China’s Cultural Revolution had nothing on today’s Social Justice Warriors. Their latest target for self-recrimination and reeducation is C.J. Nitkowski, a former Major League pitcher and now broadcaster for the Texas Rangers. Nitkowski’s crime: retweeting a tweet […]
YouTube secretly using Southern Poverty Law Center to police videos
The Southern Poverty Law Center libels and defames those who are calling attention to the nature and magnitude of the jihad threat by lumping us in with the likes of the KKK and neo-Nazis. Then compounding that defamation is the fact that the establishment media uniformly acts as if the SPLC were an impartial and […]
Hamas-linked CAIR and the SPLC team up with Christian and Jewish groups to fight “anti-Muslim bigotry”
The following is an announcement from the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-WA): Over 90 Christian, Jewish, and Muslim clergy have made commitments to promote religious freedom for all Americans as the beginning of a national movement. Islamic doctrines of jihad, hatred, and intolerance, and human rights abuses against women, Christians, Yazidis and others, including the LGBTQ […]
SPLC: Selling hate, making people a target, hiding from taxes
Ayaan Hirsi Ali grew up in Somalia, where she suffered female genital mutilation. So now she speaks out against radical Islam. For that, SPLC put her on its list of dangerous “extremists.” The Southern Poverty Law Center has mutated over time from a once-respectable organization to a despicable entity that targets those who do the real […]
Tennessee’s Trevecca Nazarene University drops Homeland Security Summit after complaints from Hamas-linked CAIR
This egregious USA Today article is full of the usual nonsense: it’s “anti-Muslim” to oppose jihad terror, Hamas-linked CAIR is presented as if it were the civil rights organization it claims to be, without any indication of the fact that CAIR officials have refused to denounce Hamas and Hizballah as terrorist groups. CAIR is an unindicted […]
SPLC does victory dance over fascist disruption of Robert Spencer event at Stanford
Just in case there are any people reading this who aren’t sure whether the SPLC is right or I am, the SPLC says in the article below: “Spencer and Horowitz’s records make it clear that they’re not interested in reasoned debate or the free exchange of ideas.” Here, by contrast, is something I said when […]
Robert Spencer video: Who is the real target of the Congressional resolution against “hate groups”?
In this new video, I expose the insidious intentions of the Congressional resolution condemning “hate groups,” and explains why President Trump shouldn’t have signed it.
Department of Defense’s booting of the SPLC is long overdue
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”
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 […]
SPLC reviews AFDI’s film “Can’t We Talk About This?”: “All-star lineup of Islamophobes”
The well-heeled defamation machine known as the Southern Poverty Law Center has taken aim at our documentary film on the jihad against the freedom of speech, Can’t We Talk About This?. Watch this groundbreaking film on Vimeo here. And please help us meet the massive expenses of our truth campaigns: contribute here. Comments on this latest […]
Muslim group demands that Marriott cancel counter-jihad group’s event
Note BuzzFeed’s predictably vicious coverage, beginning with the headline calling Act for America an “anti-Muslim group.” It is now taken for granted in the establishment media that to oppose jihad terror and Sharia oppression is to be “anti-Muslim.” The media maintains this even while insisting that jihad terror and Sharia oppression have nothing to do […]
In 2015, SPLC spent $20 million on salaries, but only $61,000 on legal services
Far-Leftists making money hand over fist while “smearing any group which disagrees with them as a ‘hate group.’” By lumping legitimate groups together with the KKK and neo-Nazis, the Southern Poverty Law Center hopes to destroy all those who dissent from the hard-Leftist agenda. “The Ivory Spires of the SPLC ‘Poverty Palace,’” by Jacob Grandstaff, […]
“Is Robert Spencer’s Jihad Watch a Hate Group? The SPLC says yes, but fails to make its case.”
Evidence means nothing to most of the people who claim this; they have an agenda and are happy to ignore inconvenient facts to put it across. But for those who care about the truth, here is a good critical examination of the Southern Poverty Law Center’s false and defamatory claim that Jihad Watch is a […]
