Analysts
routinely think that attacks like these happen because of the conflict
between Israel and the “Palestinians,” but in reality the enmity goes
much deeper than that. Hatred of Jews is deeply ingrained in the Qur’an,
which calls Jews “the most intense of the people in animosity toward
the believers” (5:82), and says that they […]

Not
to worry. This is nothing that a bit of “dialogue” won’t cure — as long
as we don’t talk about it! “Talk about extreme, militant Islamists and
the atrocities that they have perpetrated globally might undercut the
positive achievements that we Catholics have attained in our
inter-religious dialogue with devout Muslims.” — Robert McManus, […]

Now
wait a minute. Madrassa students spend the bulk of their time studying
and memorizing the Qur’an. So according to the conventional wisdom,
they’re the last people who would be interested in joining a jihad
terror group, because they know well that Islam is a Religion of Peace
that eschews violence. So how did they, […]

The
Iranians aided Shi’ite militants and Sunni al-Qaeda forces against
coalition forces in Iraq. And now the Obama Administration is seriously
considering aiding the Iranians against Sunni jihadists. The incoherence
of Obama foreign policy is staggering. “State Dept. Ignored Warnings of
Iranian Efforts to Destabilize Iraq,” by Adam Kredo, Washington Free
Beacon, June 16, 2014: […]

People
don’t realize how deeply imperiled our freedom of speech really is, and
how, increasingly, only one point of view is acceptable in the public
square. This is a formula for tyranny, and we are going to keep fighting
it. “Appeal Brief Filed in Legal Challenge to MBTA’s Censorship of
Anti-Jihad Bus Ads,” American Freedom […]

This
jihadist recruitment network is led by a former Guantanamo Bay inmate.
And so yet again we see the folly of the Obama policy of emptying out
Gitmo while doing nothing to protect non-Muslims from the jihad that
these men were certain to return to waging. “Spain raids jihadist cell
‘led by ex-Guantanamo inmate,’” AFP, […]

There
have been questions about Mohamed Elibiary’s true allegiances for
years. He was one of the speakers at a December 2004 conference in
Dallas titled “A Tribute to the Great Islamic Visionary.” The visionary
in question was none other than the founding father of the Islamic
Republic of Iran, the Ayatollah Khomeini. When I questioned […]

Islamic
jihadists did the same thing during the Westgate Mall massacre in
Kenya: they released people who could answer questions about Islam and
murdered those who couldn’t. This is because the Qur’an forbids Muslims
to kill other Muslims (4:92), but contains several exhortations to kill
(2:191, 4:89, 9:5, 47:4) or subjugate (9:29) non-Muslims. But remember: […]

Over
at PJ Media I explore the latest contradictions in the foreign policy
of the post-American President: Now that the Islamic State of Iraq and
Syria has taken Mosul and Tikrit and has set its sights on Baghdad,
Barack Obama has responded with a strong statement – and in doing so,
revealed the deep contradictions […]

These
are, mind you, the same Sunni jihadists whose friends and allies the
U.S. is arming in Syria. The incoherence of the Obama foreign policy is
reaching comic proportions: it is now possible for a man to be a freedom
fighter and receive American assistance in Syria, and then cross over
the (bulldozed) border into […]
