“Sherko
Omer” has the impression that forcing women to have sexual intercourse
is forbidden in Islam, but there is nothing in the Qur’an about
obtaining the consent of the “captives of the right hand” who are
“spoils of war” (Qur’an 33:50). Nor does Muhammad say anything about
consent when sanctioning the rape of captive women: […]

Will
Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Ahmet Davutoglu send a bouquet of flowers to

2014: DER ZOR, Syria (A.W.)—The Islamic State (also known as ISIS)

Wait,
what? You mean they misunderstand Islam in Xinjiang the same way they
do in Iraq and Syria? How did this misunderstanding of Islam get so
widespread? Can Obama get someone over there who knows the true Islam,
and explain to the Uighurs how they’re misunderstanding the Religion of
Peace? If John Kerry’s schedule is […]

“Jurors
found the bank liable for transferring cash to operatives and handling
$5,300 death benefits to families of suicide bombers from a Saudi
charity group.” It is good to see the financiers of jihad terror being
held to a small measure of accountability. “Jury finds bank liable for
suicide bombings in Israel,” by Selim Algar, […]

Translated
from Fyens: Centrally placed sources told the Norwegian television and
radio station NRK that militants who probably sympathize with the
Islamic State this summer planned to kill a whole family with knives,
film it and publish it as a warning…. In July, Norway was under a terror
alert, which included extra staff at all […]

Only
two out of 14 mosques distance themselves from the Islamic State. One
of the mosques denouncing the Islamic State only does so because the
mosque thinks that the Islamic State makes others dislike Islam. The
spokesman for that same mosque recently commented on the Hamas conflict
with Israel in this way: “Sometimes one just […]

In
other news a coalition of Muslims and non-Muslims gathered in New York
to denounce our AFDI counter-jihad ads. They said nothing about this
massacre or any other jihad massacre. “Islamic Extremists Kill at Least
10 Christians in Plateau State, Nigeria,” Morning Star News, September
23, 2014: BOKKOS, Nigeria (Morning Star News) – Ethnic Fulani […]

“US
public diplomacy experts have warned that the government may not be
doing enough to counter the Islamic State’s growing online presence.” Do
these “public diplomacy experts” ever stop and ask themselves why the
Muslim organizations large and small that condemn the Islamic State
aren’t doing anything to counter its growing online presence? Why is […]

Misunderstanding
of Islam seems to run in this family. When he was sentenced, Abu Ghaith
quoted the Qur’an. Another puzzle! Why would someone who misunderstands
Islam and is ignorant enough of the Qur’an to think it teaches violence
against unbelievers quote it when he is sentenced? A mystery for the
mainstream analysts to ponder. “Bin […]

“Senior
intelligence sources confirmed he was among a number of people who had
their passports recently cancelled.” But he found a way to wage jihad
anyway. “Man shot dead, two counter-terrorism officers stabbed outside
Endeavour Hills police station,” by Angus Thompson, Simon Benson,
Anthony Dowsley, Herald Sun, September 23, 2014 (thanks to all who sent
