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

Bribery and Murder Threats Still Spread the Faith of Islam

Oct 6, 2020 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald 23 Comments

During the last 1,400 years, many non-Muslims converted to Islam to avoid death or a wretched existence as dhimmis. Bribery and murder, as instruments of conversion, still take place today, in Muslim lands as diverse as Iraq, Nigeria, and Pakistan. The story of these converions is here. It started with his father. As fighting and […]

Syria: Yazidis still negotiating return of over 1,000 kidnapped women and children held by Muslims

Jul 11, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

“If IS has been militarily eradicated who is hiding the more than 1,000 Yazidis? Who are they being bought from? And why are those traders not being investigated?” Good questions. Yet no answers appear to be forthcoming. Would answering them be “Islamophobic”? Hostage-taking is sanctioned in Islamic law and subject to particular rules: “As for the captives, the […]

Iraq: Islamic State jihadists using video game controller explosives to murder Yazidis

May 29, 2020 8:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

There are no limits to the jihadist hatred of infidels, or to their impulse to murder them. “Bomb detection units in Iraq uncovered a plot by the Islamic State to detonate bombs against Yazidi people hidden in video game controllers, a film highlighted by the UK Telegraph on Monday found.” While the Islamic State has […]

Trump steps in to save Christians and Yazidis from extinction by jihadists

Jul 19, 2019 3:37 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

To acknowledge the levels of Christian persecution and Yazidis means to acknowledge a major problem within Islamic countries which are governed by the sharia; therefore, Christians have been left virtually ignored. That is, until Donald Trump decided to step in. “U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration is helping bring Christians and Yazidis in Iraq back from […]

Yazidis suing Germany for failing to prosecute IS jihadists

May 30, 2019 12:17 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

A most welcome precedent that should be replicated accordingly in every Western country by victims of jihadists and islamic supremacists…. Members of the Yazidi minority in Germany are taking the federal government to court. They say Berlin isn’t doing enough to bring German “Islamic State” supporters captured in Syria to justice. “Germany is failing to […]

3,000 Yazidi sex slaves missing and feared dead

Mar 16, 2019 8:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

3000 Yazidi sex slaves are lost and feared dead. This story should be in headlines everywhere. Is it? Are the lives of Yazidi girls and women so valueless in the eyes of the Western media? Add to that the fact that thousands of other Yazidi sex slaves who were tortured and murdered. Where also are […]

Refugees welcome! They are not dangerous, they are in danger! “’I saw my ISIS captor and rapist in Canada’: Former Yazidi sex slave,” by Daniel Bordman, The Post Millennial, March 8, 2019: On Friday, March 8th, members from Toronto’s Yezidi community held a rally at Nathan Phillips Square to raise awareness for the plight of […]

“It’s not rape in Islam”: ISIS Muslima says jihadis’ rape of non-Muslim women is “allowed in the Quran”

Mar 11, 2019 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

The Daily Mail, the worst paper in the Western world, undertakes here to defend Islam and the Qur’an from charges that they condone the sexual enslavement of Infidel women, citing Qur’an 24:33, “Force not your slave-girls to whoredom.” However, this refers to forcing slave girls to become prostitutes. The Qur’an is quite clear that slave […]

“Yazidi children who have escaped five years in captivity under so-called Islamic State are now having to face the long and difficult road to recovery in north east Syria…..They (Isis) put them on the frontline so the coalition fighter jets and YPG fighters would not attack… While Yazidi women were captured and used as sex […]

Pregnant at 10, Yazidi girl trapped as sex slave in ISIS capital, children beaten with cables by jihadi brides

Feb 26, 2019 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

Those are the same jihadi brides that the establishment media is agitating about, demanding that they be allowed to return to the US and the UK. The seizure of Infidel girls and their use as sex slaves is sanctioned in the Qur’an. According to Islamic law, Muslim men can take “captives of the right hand” […]

“I am your rapist”: Muslims bombard former Islamic State sex slaves in Canada with threatening phone calls and texts

It is hard to imagine the depths of evil that must be in these callers’ hearts in order to enable them to do this. But those who held sex slaves in the Islamic State believed that they were on the side of righteousness, fulfilling Allah’s command to take “captives of the right hand” as “spoils […]

US House passes legislation to aid Christian and Yazidi genocide victims in Iraq and Syria

Chris Smith’s (R-NJ) legislation to provide humanitarian relief to genocide victims in Iraq and Syria, and hold ISIS perpetrators accountable—HR 390, the Iraq and Syria […]

The Nobel Peace Prize Finally Goes to Someone Who Deserves It (Part Two)

Listening to the radio, I heard with alarm several people on a talk show describe Nadia Murad as a “Yazidi Muslim.” She is not a Muslim. She must never be thought of as a Muslim. She is a Yazidi, a small religious sect with roots in Kurdistan and Armenia, that has always been the object […]

Why would the Trudeau government protect a monster such as this ISIS slaveholder?

Muslims newly persecuting Yazidis, forcing them to convert to Islam

Apr 18, 2018 4:22 pm By Robert Spencer

The Qur’an says “There is no compulsion in religion” (2:256). However, what constitutes “compulsion” is in the eye of the beholder. The institutionalized subjugation of the dhimma, with its regular humiliation and harassment, from which one can be freed for the simple price of converting to Islam, is not considered compulsion. Remember Steve Centanni and […]

Turkey defies US/UK coalition against the Islamic State, attacks the Yazidis instead

Mar 6, 2017 9:53 am By Robert Spencer

Turkey is no ally of the United States. As I explained in The Complete Infidel’s Guide to ISIS, Erodgan’s Ottoman irredentism makes him reluctant to attack the Islamic State; he would rather use the Islamic State against his Kurdish enemies, and eventually co-opt the Islamic State caliphate into his own. “Turkey defies British anti-terror commander, […]

Obama admits 12,587 Syrian refugees: 12,486 Muslims, 68 Christians, 24 Yazidis

Oct 4, 2016 12:26 pm By Robert Spencer

This is social engineering, not a genuine response to a refugee crisis. Ten percent of Syria was Christian before the war, and the Christians have been particularly brutalized, often by Obama-backed jihad groups. The refugee population should thus be at least 10% Christian. Instead, Christians accounted for less than one percent of the refugees admitted […]

Brave Yazidi female battalion battles to wipe out the Islamic State

We have seen horrific stories of the Islamic State taking Yazidi sex slaves, now numbering over 3000. They risk death and suffer the worst forms of brutality when they try to escape. There is a group of Yazidi women who have had enough; among them are artists and a range of professionals. They comprise an […]
