Role
model: “Then they [the Jewish Qurayzah tribe] surrendered, and the
apostle [Muhammad] confined them in Medina in the quarter of d.
al-Harith, a woman of B. Al-Najjar. Then the apostle went out to the
market of Medina (which is still its market today) and dug trenches in
it. Then he sent for them and […]

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
[…]

The
Kassigs’ appeal is mostly based on an invocation of their son
Abdul-Rahman Kassig’s humanitarian work among Syrians: they mention his
conversion to Islam and refer to him by his Muslim name, but unlike the
mother of another hostage, Shirley Sotloff, they do not presume to
lecture the jihadis about Islam. The scarf that Mrs. […]

Will
his conversion save his life? After all, the Qur’an forbids Muslims to
kill other Muslims (4:92). And so it is possible that the Islamic State
jihadis will spare Kassig, but it is also possible that they will decide
that as someone whom they perceive to be an agent of an enemy Infidel
power, he […]

The
Pakistani Taliban says to the Islamic State: “All Muslims in the world
have great expectations of you … We are with you, we will provide you
with Mujahideen (fighters) and with every possible support.” The
misunderstanding of Islam is epidemic and global. Will Obama send John
Kerry to talk to the Pakistani Taliban and […]

Oklahoma
beheader Jah’Keem Yisrael didn’t arise in a vacuum. My latest in
FrontPage: Jah’Keem Yisrael (formerly Alton Alexander Nolen), who
beheaded one of his coworkers and was shot while in the process of
trying to behead another on September 26 in Vaughan Foods, a food
processing plant in Moore, Oklahoma, didn’t live in a vacuum. His

“I
have never said to him that we had made a mistake, never. If he did say
this at Harvard then he has to apologize to us.” Of course. Islamic
supremacists never admit mistakes or wrongdoing; everything is always
the fault of everyone else. “Turkish president demands apology from
Biden,” by Suzan Fraser, Associated Press, […]

They
will keep on beheading until they are stopped. They will keep on
advancing until they are stopped. They will keep on attracting Muslims
to wage jihad alongside them until they are stopped. But does anyone
have the will to stop them? “White House Confirms ISIS Is Holding A
Former US Army Ranger Hostage,” by […]

As
David Wood notes, contrast this turnout to the thousands of Muslims who
turn out for rallies against cartoons of Muhammad or against Israel.
But given a chance to show how they overwhelmingly reject “extremism,”
and only a handful show up. Video thanks to Answering Muslims (via The
Religion of Peace).

Laurie
Penny, a Leftist writer in Britain, has already shown herself to be a
willing tool of the jihad agenda. It is unlikely that Auernheimer’s
“death to the Jews” cry will trouble Penny, if she shares the Left’s
growing antisemitism; however, the swastika tattoo might embarrass her a
bit, if such people are still capable […]
