“’The
Department also did not find any indication that he sought to disclose
any other internal OHS [Office of Homeland Security] information to
anyone apart from official use of information within the scope of his
role for the Homeland Security Advisory Council.’ …However, documents
obtained by Judicial Watch under the Freedom of Information Act
contradict […]

Is
the Islamic State here? Maybe. But the jihad certainly is. My latest in
FrontPage: As the Islamic State beheads a third hostage and the world
recoils in horror and reassures itself that all this has nothing to do
with Islam, it is useful to remember that jihad activity continues in
the United States – […]

A
major overhaul of the educational system is one of the first acts of
the new President Erdogan, and Turkish secularism suffers another major
blow. Here is the latest on Turkey’s rapid re-Islamization: “Erdogan’s
new Turkey to requires [sic] all students to study the Qur’an,” by NAT
da Polis, Asia News, September 15, 2014 (thanks […]

So
many non-Muslim authorities in the West who see clearly and easily that
what the Islamic State does has nothing to do with Islam: Barack Obama,
John Kerry, David Cameron, Philip Hammond, Tony Abbott, and so very
many others — now including James Brokenshire. Why do so many young
Muslims from the West, including hundreds […]

In
June 2014, Representative Ted Poe (R-TX) enunciated the concerns that
increasing numbers of people have about jihadists exploiting our open
Southern border when he said: “This jihadist group ISIS and its leader
Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi have promised direct confrontation with America. He
is looking forward to that day and he has said that publicly, […]

Same
hymn, different choirboy. Apparently cutting throats is not
“representative of Islam,” and anyone who thinks that “when you meet the
unbelievers, strike the necks” means “when you meet the unbelievers,
strike the necks” (Qur’an 47:4) is just a greasy Islamophobe. “World
leaders vow to help Iraq fight Islamic State using ‘all means,'” by Kim
[…]

Holder
apparently never explained what kind of “violent extremism” he hopes to
counter. Susan Jones of CNS News writes that it “sounds like he wants
law enforcement and community leaders to meet regularly, to share
information on people who may have traveled overseas to join ISIS, or on
people who may be plotting attacks right […]

Aftab
Malik spent a month in Lakemba, “Australia’s unofficial Muslim
capital.” He came away warning that the atmosphere in Lakemba “reminded
him of London prior to the 7/7 terror bombings of 2005.” He says that
the tensions have been “fuelled by the photos and videos of thousands of
gruesome deaths in the West Bank, Gaza, […]

This
is one of the fundamental fallacies of the West’s entire approach to
the global jihad. Western analysts and policymakers persist in the
delusion that their concessions and acts of kindness will meet with
reciprocal acts of kindness from Islamic supremacists and jihadists.
This is not, in fact, the case. Instead, they’re just seen as […]

Why
is this human rights abomination so common? Islamic apologists in the
West routinely claim that Muhammad did not marry a child and that child
marriage is not permitted in Islam, but actually, few things are more
abundantly attested in Islamic law than the permissibility of child
marriage. Islamic tradition records that Muhammad’s favorite wife, […]
