According
to the FBI, there are “eight types of domestic extremist movements—none
motivated by radical Islam. They include anti-government militia groups
and white supremacy extremists, along with ‘sovereign citizen’
nationalists, and anarchists. Other domestic threat groups outlined by
the FBI assessment include violent animal rights and environmentalist
extremists, black separatists, anti- and pro-abortion activists, and […]

“I
just don’t understand it, Theresa.” “What, David? What don’t you
understand, luv?” “The ingratitude, innit? The base, black, bold
ingratitude. Think of it: We hounded counter-jihadists domestically and
banned Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer from coming in from the U.S. We
worked with Islamic supremacists that we pretended were ‘moderates,’
allowing them to gain […]

“Dr.
Farouk El-Baz is director of the Center for Remote Sensing at Boston
University. He served as science adviser to President Anwar Sadat of
Egypt.” In this Boston Herald op-ed, he offers something we have seen
before: a Muslim denunciation of the Islamic State that glosses over or
ignores altogether the Islamic justifications for the […]

According to Islamic law, Muslim men can take “captives of the right hand” (Qur’an 4:3, 4:24,
33:50). The Qur’an says: “O Prophet! Lo! We have made lawful unto thee
thy wives unto whom thou hast paid their dowries, and those whom thy
right hand possesseth of those whom Allah hath given thee as spoils of
[…]

With
so many Islamic authorities condemning the Islamic State, albeit in
vague and non-specific terms, it is noteworthy that it has received so
much help from elements in Turkey and Saudi Arabia. There are obviously
many people in both countries who believe that what the Islamic State is
doing is perfectly Islamic, and to be […]

“This
recipe gives you the ability to make a car bomb even in countries with
tight security and surveillance.” And we have already seen a car bomb
that cam very close to exploding and murdering untold numbers of people
in Times Square. This is only a matter of time, but remember: to oppose
it and […]

It
would be refreshing if even one of those who are condemning the Islamic
State would explain how this misunderstanding of Islam spread to so
many people all over the world. But they never will do so, and the
mainstream media will never ask them to. “Daesh terrorist acts have no
link with Islam: Mufti […]

Muhammad
commanded: “Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him”
(Bukhari 9.84.57). This is still the position of all the schools of
Islamic jurisprudence, both Sunni and Shi’ite. Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi,
the most renowned and prominent Muslim cleric in the world, has stated:
“The Muslim jurists are unanimous that apostates must be punished, yet
they […]

This
story is circulating around today, but not at the major news outlets;
it may not be accurate at all and should be treated with reserve. It
does exemplify, however, how Islamic proselytizing in prison focuses on
people who are angry and feel as if they have been treated unjustly, and
channels their anger in […]
