While
Barack Obama and John Kerry pressure Israel into making still more
self-defeating concessions to the “Palestinians,” Hamas pursues violent
jihad. Either way, Israel faces jihad. Surely even Obama and Kerry must
not believe at this point that their negotiations will bring some kind
of lasting peace to the jihadis and Israel. But they probably […]

The
situation is “under control,” said the security minister, but of course
it isn’t. Islamic jihadis are still a powerful force in Somalia, and
they will be heard from again. No one, however, seems particularly
curious about why the jihad group is able to attract recruits, even from
Minneapolis. To explore why the group’s ideology […]

Muhammad
is depicted in Islamic tradition as saying that a sign of the
apocalypse will be when “there will be peoples of my Community who will
hold fornication, silk, wine, and musical instruments to be lawful ….” —
‘Umdat al-Salik r40.0 But note that they’re upset about men wearing
silk — not, say, about jihad […]

He
already gets catered halal meals, plus the Qur’an and other Islamic
texts in prison. But even all that isn’t enough, as far as his lawyers
are concerned, and given the tendency in the mainstream media to blame
the U.S. for jihad attacks, parroting the jihadist tendency to justify
all their murders by reference to […]

Here
is an excellent report on what I wrote about here: the Norwegian mass
murderer Anders Breivik’s claim to be a Nazi, and to have fashioned his
“manifesto” in order to ensure that the counter-jihad movement — and
counter-jihadists including me — would be destroyed as the media blamed
us for his murders. The media […]

As
Turkey rapidly re-Islamizes, this is no surprise. “Men are the managers
of the affairs of women for that God has preferred in bounty one of
them over another, and for that they have expended of their property.
Righteous women are therefore obedient, guarding the secret for God’s
guarding. And those you fear may be […]

It
is the mainstream media’s universal practice to claim that female
genital mutilation (FGM) is a cultural practice with no justification in
any religion, and to point out that around 97% of women in Egypt have
been subjected to it, which means that Christian women as well as Muslim
women are among the victims of […]

Islam:
spread by the sword, indeed. Haroon Rashid seems to have been an
especially charming fellow: he also threatened to blow up police
officers and later threatened a staff member at an unemployment center.
In short, he seems like a ticking time bomb. It’s a good thing that the
British government is in radical appeasement […]

Islamic
law forbids Christians to build new churches or repair old ones, so
that their communities will be in a perpetual state of decline and the
hegemony of Islam assured. That is what is behind this action in
Indonesia and others like it, and is why “the process for building a
church in Indonesia – […]

Now
what? Now these ten young would-be jihadis are stuck in the Netherlands
with nothing to do and no change in the beliefs that made them want to
go to Syria in the first place. What might they find to do in the
Netherlands? And now Dutch law enforcement officials have the added
expense of […]
