The
Islamic State has repeatedly called for jihad terror attacks in the
U.S., and boasted that its jihadis are already here. Maybe they are just
trying to “strike terror into the hearts of the enemies of Allah”
(Qur’an 8:60). But the number of Muslims from the U.S. who have gone to
join them in Iraq […]

Breitbart
reported last week that “the US-backed Free Syrian Army (FSA), Al Nusra
Front, and the Islamic State have paired together in order to fight
President Bashar al-Assad’s Syrian Armed Forces, according to statements
from multiple commanders from within the FSA. ‘We are collaborating
with the Islamic State and the Nusra Front by attacking the […]

The
ACLU objected, you see: the civil liberties of those U.S. citizens who
have declared war against the United States must be preserved. And when
the dead bodies are being counted, I hope the ACLU and Senator Mazie
Hirono will stand up and take a bow. “Senator BLOCKS Ted Cruz bill to
seize passports from […]

John
Cantlie is certainly correct that the Western media has an agenda and
cannot be trusted. All too often, however, that agenda appears to be in
the service of aiding the global jihad and Islamic supremacism by
downplaying or ignoring the Islamic motivation and character of jihad
atrocities, portraying Islamic supremacists in a favorable light, […]

300
angry protesters. When have we seen 300 Muslims protesting against the
twisting and hijacking of their religion that Western Muslim leaders
claim has been done by the likes of the Islamic State and Al Qaeda?
Their ire seems reserved only for counter-terror efforts, as in the
protest here, and for those who dare to […]

John
Kerry has hailed this as a sign of the emergence of the “real Islam” he
wants to fight against the Islamic State. Over at Atlas Shrugs I
discuss what is really behind this fatwa: It is a popular aspect of
media mythmaking about the Islamic State that it is so extreme that even
other […]

Yet
another struggle for the defense of the freedom of speech, spearheaded
by our ace lawyers, David Yerushalmi and Robert Muise of the American
Freedom Law Center. “Pro-Israel Group Sues Pennsylvania Transportation
Authority for Censoring Speech,” American Freedom Law Center, September
18, 2014: Philadelphia, PA (September 18, 2014) — Today, the American
Freedom Law Center […]

Yesterday
I was on One America Network’s Rick Amato Show, discussing the Islamic
State, jihad recruitment in the West, and Al Jazeera.

And
our friend and ally, NATO member Turkey, refuses to impede their oil
sales. The Islamic State is going to be around for awhile. “ISIS
controls areas with 60 oil wells, Israeli source,” ANSAmed, September
18, 2014 (thanks to Insubria): (ANSAmed) – TEL AVIV/BAGHDAD/BEIRUT,
SEPTEMBER 18 – ISIS has ”extraordinary economic resources” enabling it
to […]

I
am no fan of Maajid Nawaz. He rejects jihad terror but arouses mistrust
with his use of the propaganda smear term “Islamophobia” as if it were a
serious and genuine phenomenon. In reality, Abdur-Rahman Muhammad, a
former member of the Muslim Brotherhood-linked International Institute
of Islamic Thought (IIIT), explains that “this loathsome term is […]

Of
course his words were taken out of context. When has a non-Muslim
opponent of jihad terror ever quoted an Islamic supremacist’s words in
their proper context? Greasy Islamophobes seem to be physically
incapable of quoting the Qur’an or the words of any jihadist imam in
context. It takes a mind of particular refinement to […]

[Via
FrontPage Mag] While many have rightfully criticized U.S. President
Obama’s recent assertion that the Islamic State “is not Islamic,” some
of his other equally curious but more subtle comments pronounced in the
same speech have been largely ignored. Consider the president’s
invocation of the “grievances” meme to explain the Islamic State’s
success: “At this […]
