Our
organization, the human rights advocacy group the American Freedom
Defense Initiative (AFDI), has unveiled a new advertising campaign that
boldly tells truths that the U.S. government and the mainstream media
seem determined to obfuscate. Our crowdfunder at Indiegogo is in its
final days — and we need your help. These funds enable us to […]

Yet
another convert to Islam misunderstands his new religion and gets the
crazy idea that it has something to do with violence against
unbelievers. If only Barack Obama or John Kerry had been around to set
him straight. “Canadian Michael Zehaf-Bibeau thought to be the gunman in
Ottawa shooting,” Sydney Morning Herald, October 23, 2014: […]

The
politically correct Ottawa Police Chief seems to have imbibed the
lesson well: after every jihad attack, Muslims are the victims, and need
special reassurances. Of course, there should be no “backlash” against
any innocent people and almost certainly won’t be, but this endless
pandering is grotesque. Who is reassuring non-Muslims about keeping them
safe […]

Malala
Yousafzai was set to receive honorary Canadian citizenship today.
Islamic jihadists have tried to kill Malala once and have vowed to try
again. Could the Canadian shootings be related to this? The possibility
at this point cannot be ruled out. “Harper cancels Malala citizenship
ceremony,” The Canadian Press, October 22, 2014: TORONTO – Prime […]

This
is the quality of mainstream media reporting. Here is a dose of reality
for Derek Stoffel: “ISIS urges jihadists to attack Canadians: ‘You will
not feel secure in your bedrooms,’” by Stewart Bell, National Post,
September 21, 2014: The spokesman for the Islamic State of Iraq and
Al-Sham called for attacks on Canadians on […]

This
may or may not be jihad, but it is certainly a planned, coordinated
series of attacks. “Third shooting in shopping mall confirmed,” by Steve
Robson, Mirror, October 22, 2014 (thanks to Marc): Police have now
confirmed there has been a third shooting at the Rideau Centre shopping
mall near to the Parliament building. Armed […]

Another
indication to suggest that this is a jihad terror attack. Nothing
conclusive yet, however. “UPDATING: Gunman killed at Parliament Hill,
other suspects sought,” by Blair Crawford, Ottawa Citizen, October 22,
2014: A gunman has been shot and killed inside Parliament Hill’s Centre
Block and police are swarming over downtown Ottawa hunting for other
possible […]

By
ordering military bases shut down, the Canadian government is acting
upon the assumption that this is a jihad attack, and one that is being
carried out in obedience to the Islamic State’s call to target Western
military personnel. “Ottawa shooting: Live updates,” by Steve Robson,
Mirror, October 22, 2014 (thanks to Lookmann) [For the […]
Ottawa: One gunman killed, multiple shooters suspected, 30-50 shots fired inside halls of Parliament
Oct 22, 2014 11:42 am | Robert Spencer
Still
no indication that this is jihad. Still no indication that it isn’t.
“Soldier shot outside of Parliament, one gunman ‘killed,’ but ‘multiple
shooters’ suspected,” by John Ivison, Justin Ling, Josh Visser, and Jake
Edmiston, National Post, October 22, 2014 (thanks to Lookmann): A
soldier was shot at the National War Memorial by an unknown […]

The
Islamic State? The Iranians, hoping to goad the U.S. into more
effective action against the Islamic State? “US Embassy in Baghdad
Shelled With Rockets: Reports,” RIA Novosti, October 22, 2014: BAGHDAD,
October 22 (RIA Novosti) – The US Embassy in Iraq located in central
Baghdad has been shelled with rockets, Al-Mustakillah news agency

Shootings
in Ottawa, shootings in Jerusalem. More info when it becomes available.
“Terrorist Shooting Israelis at Light Rail Station near Ammunition
Hill,” by Lori Lowenthal Marcus, Jewish Press, October 22, 2014: Social
media is reporting that a terrorist was shooting at Israelis at the
light rail station near Ammunition Hill (Givat Tachmoshet). The shots
were […]

Again:
this might not be jihad. It may have nothing to do with jihad. But
given the Islamic State’s threats of attacks in the West and
particularly against soldiers, jihad cannot be discounted as a
possibility. “Gunfire on Parliament Hill; Canadian soldier shot at War
Memorial,” Yahoo Canada News, October 22, 2014: A uniformed Canadian […]
Oct 22, 2014 10:13 am | Robert Spencer
This
may turn out to have nothing to do with the Islamic State’s threats or
with the Canadian hit-and-run jihadi who murdered a Canadian soldier a
few days ago. But given those threats and that jihad murder, a jihad
connection here cannot immediately be ruled out. “Shots fired at Canada
war memorial. Soldier seen falling,” […]

Everyone
knows that poverty causes terrorism, and that therefore giving money to
Muslim states will quell terrorism. All the learned analysts say that.
But when the last Western authority finishes his or her speech to that
effect, these wealthy young Muslims with master’s degrees will still be
supporting jihad, and all the billions thrown at […]

On
this week’s Glazov Gang, the Garrulous Glazov was joined by Steve
Amundson, the founder and leader of the Counter Jihad Coalition. Steve
discussed his group’s “public outreach” about Islam on Los Angeles’ 3rd
St. Promenade.

He
has a “Jewish agenda to Christianise Muslim-Malaysians”! He “a
Christian who wants to spread Shia teachings”! No, fellas, you’re both
wrong: he is actually a Buddhist who wants to spread Methodism. “Once
Gabriel promised the Prophet (that he would visit him, but Gabriel did
not come) and later on he said, ‘We, angels, do […] |
