JIHAD WATCH 06/17/2014

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: […]

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 […]
