And
it will take a full-blown army to dislodge their new caliphate. But
there doesn’t appear at this moment to be a full-blown army that it
situated well enough and up to the task. “ISIS now ‘full-blown army,’
officials warn,” by Kristina Wong, The Hill, July 23, 2014 (thanks to
Pamela Geller): Top U.S. officials […]

“Once
again, this Council fails to address the situation in Israel and in the
Palestinian territories with any semblance of balance. There is no
mention of indiscriminate rocket attacks by Hamas into Israel or the
tunnels used to cause mayhem.” It is good to see someone from the Obama
Administration actually speaking the truth about […]

“Her
husband’s family in Sydney has welcomed her being charged and wants the
mother of two children, aged six and nine, to be jailed. Ms Issa, 29,
travelled to Tripoli on June 20 to see her new boyfriend after recently separating from her husband. She was about to return home on the weekend when she […]

The
French condemnation of Israel obviously didn’t appease the savage
Muslims rioting and brutalizing innocent Jews and others in France. And
clearly the rioters don’t believe that they have much of anything to
fear from the French police, whose order banning pro-”Palestinian”
demonstrations they are repeatedly and brazenly defying. This is France
today: violent, aggressive […]
Muslim cleric: “Oh our brothers in Gaza, know that you are fighting an enemy following Satan’s path”

“‘Oh
our brothers in Gaza, know that you are fighting an enemy following
Satan’s path, whereas you are fighting in the way of [Allah] the
merciful,’ Maqdisi said.” Not that this has anything to do with Islam. A
few land concessions on Israel’s part will fix things up in a jiffy —
right, Mr. President? […]

Indeed,
the ban sends the signal that terrorism works, and that the Western
powers do not have the will to fight against it, but instead are all too
willing to acquiesce to it and change their behavior accordingly.
“World suspension of Israel flights a ‘great victory’: Hamas,” AFP, July
23, 2014: Gaza City (Palestinian Territories) […]

Once
again we see that non-Muslims are expected to conform to Islamic norms.
No Jew would insist that non-Jews fast on Yom Kippur. No Christian
would insist that non-Christians fast during Lent. But all too many
Muslims take it for granted that during Ramadan, non-Muslims must
conform to Ramadan fasting rules — or risk the […]

“Just
after they got married, he took her to Anbar. These jihadists are very
romantic.” However, “the two weren’t able to sit together, because
‘women sit in the back, and men at the front.’” And “the bus driver
plays jihadist songs all through the ride, and the ISIS black flag flies
over the bus.” This […]

He
is absolutely right about this, and yet even though it is a blazingly
obvious point, he is the only world leader who has dared to point out
that all these “extremist” groups have a unified ideology, a shared
belief system, and a common goal. The rest are mired in willful
ignorance to one degree […]

Islamic
jihadists appear to be able to act with impunity all over the world.
They are well-funded and well-supplied, and no one seems to have the
will or the wherewithal to stop them. Meanwhile, those who dare in the
West to call attention to their activities and atrocities are
stigmatized and demonized as “bigots.” The […]

They
didn’t sentence him to die, as per the traditional Sharia penalty. They
must be moderates. In any case, woe to you — from the gay community —
if you dare to point out Sharia persecution of gays. When Pamela Geller
and I ran ads highlighting the mistreatment of gays in Islamic law, the
San […]

The
jihadis of the Islamic State believe that the possessions of the
Christians belong to them by right, either as the spoils of war or as
the poll tax (jizya) mandated by the Qur’an: “Fight those who believe
not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been
forbidden by Allah […]

Monday I was on the Peter Boyles Show on KNUS Denver, discussing the ongoing crisis and the global jihad.
