I’ve been out and about quite a bit lately. In November and December
I’ve spoken at a Veterans of Foreign Wars Veterans Day event in Sierra
Madre, California (video here); at Restoration Weekend in West Palm
Beach, Florida; at Fuel for Truth in New York City; at Temple Israel of
Riverhead, New York; at Saint […]

Here again we see the appeal of the concept of the caliphate. Muslims
never left their home countries to join al-Qaeda in these numbers. But
Western authorities scratch their heads in puzzlement over the Islamic
State’s ability to attract Muslims from all over the world. After all,
what it does is completely un-Islamic, isn’t it? […]

In FrontPage today I discuss yet another dishonest attempt to portray
Muhammad as a man of peace — an attempt that appears especially cynical
and dishonest in light of the Sydney and Peshawar jihad attacks: Did
Muhammad approve of torture? For Ahmadi Muslim leader Qasim Rashid, the
answer is “no” – a “no” so unequivocal […]

The death toll is now over 130. The jihadis set off a jihad-martyrdom
suicide bomb that killed a number of students, while beheading others
and making students watch as a teacher was burned alive. They believe
that all this pleases their god, because it “strikes terror into the
hearts of the enemies of Allah” (Qur’an […]

His next wife, who describes herself as a terrorist, is charged with
the murder, and Monis was charged as an accessory. Khalik says: “He was
abusing her, having her wear the hijab…” So here again we have an
indication of how devout Man Haron Monis was in his observance of Islam.
“Ex-Wife Of Sydney Gunman […]

In PJ Media I discuss a few examples of recent attempts at inter-faith
dialogue that Pope Francis should consider as he weighs engaging with
the Islamic State. During his trip to Turkey in late November, Pope
Francis said that he would never rule out the possibility of dialogue
with representatives of the Islamic State: I […]

Once again we see the conflicting narratives. Western leaders
universally tell us that the Muslims who join the Islamic State know
nothing about Islam and are transgressing against its teachings. Yet
those who are allied with the Islamic State claim to be the exponents of
true and pure Islam — and this Islamic State propagandist […]

“Yes, we are happy about the punishment of
September 11.
Yes, we are happy about the punishment in Bali. Yes, we are happy about
the punishment of the Holocaust and any other punishment that God sends
to us.” This savagery is a knife held at the throat of the civilized
world. “‘I regret to say […]

He was on bail for involvement in the honor murder of his ex-wife. He
was charged with sexual assault. He had pleaded guilty to sending
harassing letters to the families of Australian servicemen slain in
Afghanistan. But none of that rose to any significant level of concern
for Australian authorities — after all, they know […]

“They were entering every class and they were killing the children.”
Coming sooner or later to a school near you, courtesy the denial and
willful ignorance of government and law enforcement officials. “Pakistan
Taliban ‘kill 100′ in assault on Peshawar school,” BBC, December 16,
2014: At least 100 people, 80 of them children, have been […]

It sounds as if Man Haron Monis had due contempt for the kuffar who are, according to the Qur’an, “unclean” (
9:28), as well as being “the most vile of created beings” (98:6) and “the worst of beasts in the sight of Allah” (
8:55). “Loud prayers to Allah and bags of rotting food over the fence: […]

“Reprisal attacks are something that should not happen.” Indeed so.
They should not happen, and for the most part they don’t. Jihad attacks
are also something that should not happen. Where are the Muslims
offering to ride with Infidels in order to defend them against other
Muslims who may wish to bomb them, behead them, […]

[Via Veritas International Enterprise] Yet another Christian church was
destroyed by Muslims in Ethiopia—this time by local authorities.
Heaven’s Light Church, which served some 100 evangelical Christians, was
demolished last November 28. The church had stood and functioned in
the Muslim-majority city of Harar for five years. In the days preceding
the destruction, officials forcibly […]
