“The
group has vowed to step up attacks during the Islamic holy month of
Ramadan.” Most Western analysts would consider that anomalous, because
they don’t have any understanding of Islamic theology. In reality,
Ramadan is a month for renewing one’s Islamic piety, and jihadists
consider their jihad attacks to be expressions of that piety. Thus […]

“The
objective of this bill is to increase the number of hurdles to
discourage those who want to go and to stop them actually going.” What a
capital idea. Why hasn’t anyone thought of it in the U.S. or Great
Britain? “France set to prevent jihadists going to fight or train
abroad,” Reuters, July 8, […]

“The
Muslim identity is above all sectarian, dispositional and political
considerations. No structure should be allowed to spoil Islamic
fraternity and unity,” said Turkey’s Presidency of Religious Affairs.
But of course, that is exactly the same argument that the Islamic State
uses against Turkey and other Muslim states. “Report: ISIL planning
‘jihad’ for Turkey,” by […]

It
bears repeating: here is the difference between the civilized man and
the savage. In Gaza, those who murder Israelis are celebrated as heroes.
“Palestinians” pass out candies to celebrate the murders. In Israel,
these six Israelis suspected of murdering the “Palestinian” boy are
universally condemned, Israeli leaders are issuing anguished apologies,
and the suspects […]

“We
aren’t viewing this particular site and their holding it as a major
issue at this point. Should they even be able to access the materials,
frankly, it would likely be more of a threat to them than anyone else.”
All right. Nonetheless, this is a sign that the Islamic State continues
to advance. “Iraq […]

This
is the Britain that Tony Blair, Gordon Brown and David Cameron have
given to the world. This is the Britain that Jack Straw, Jacqui Smith
and Theresa May have helped come into being. This is the Britain that
bans freedom fighters from its shores, while appeasing and accommodating
Islamic supremacists. This is Britain, the […]

Nawal
Msaad sure looks “moderate.” And yet there seems to be no curiosity
about why she agreed to undertake this odd and dangerous mission for her
friend. Was their friendship really that strong? Or does Nawal Msaad
endorse the perspective of the Islamic jihadis she was trying to help
finance? Does anyone in the UK […]

The
soldiers were “giving out pens and exercise books.” Barack Obama bears
the responsibility for every one of the American soldiers who dies in
his pointless and fruitless Afghan misadventure. “18 die in Afghan
suicide attack,” ANSA Rome, July 8, 2014: (ANSA) – Rome, July 8 – A
suicide bomb attack near an Afghan school […]

“Of
course, Israel cannot be expected to negotiate with anyone who is
dedicated to its destruction. But while I know you have had differences
with the Palestinian Authority, I believe that you do have a true
partner in President Abbas…” — Barack Obama, March 21, 2013 “Abbas’
advisor calls to murder Israelis,” by Itamar Marcus […]

“The
latest violence came as Israel pressed forward with its investigation
of six Jewish youths suspected of abducting and killing a Palestinian
teenager” — here is the difference between the civilized man and the
savage. In Gaza, those who murder Israelis are celebrated as heroes.
“Palestinians” pass out candies to celebrate the murders. In Israel, […]

“The
greatest answer to this question is in the Qur’an, where Allah speaks
about the nearby enemy – those Muslims who have become infidels – as
they are more dangerous than those which were already infidels.” When
are the moderate Muslim spokesmen in the U.S. going to deign to explain
to us how the Islamic […]
