Islamic State selling looted 2,000-year-old artifacts on eBay By Robert Spencer on Mar 14, 2015 09:17 pm The Islamic State doesn’t value these artifacts, as they are the products of jahiliyya, the pre-Islamic period of ignorance. But they don’t mind making money from the Infidels in exchange for those that they haven’t destroyed. “2,000-year-old artefacts looted by ISIS from ancient sites in Iraq and Syria are being sold on EBAY,” by Jack […] Read in browser »   US Embassy in Saudi Arabia halts operations amid “heightened security concerns” By Robert Spencer on Mar 14, 2015 09:00 pm “The message did not cite a specific security concern or threat…” Right-wing extremists, no doubt. “US Embassy in Saudi Arabia halts operations amid ‘heightened security concerns,'” FoxNews.com, March 14, 2015: U.S. officials said Sunday they will halt operations at the embassy and consulates in Saudi Arabia for the next couple of days, in response to […] Read in browser » Bosnia: Five Muslims arrested for plotting jihad attack in Scandinavia By Robert Spencer on Mar 14, 2015 08:47 pm “These persons are suspected to have produced an explosive device in Bosnia with the intention of delivering it in a Scandinavian country.” But…but…we’re constantly told that all the Muslims in Bosnia are Western-oriented, secular, America-loving moderates, and that anyone who believes otherwise is a greasy Islamophobe. Surely mainstream analysts wouldn’t mislead us, would they? “Bosnia […] Read in browser » Islamic Supreme Council of Canada: Islamic State created by West By Robert Spencer on Mar 14, 2015 08:30 pm No surprise here. For Islamic supremacists, everything is always the Infidel’s fault. The Islamic State can’t be Islamic, and it has to have been created by Western funding, because to say that Muslims were involved would mean a Muslim did something wrong — and that’s something Islamic supremacists can never admit. “Canadian Imams In Anti-ISIS […] Read in browser » Islamic State kills nine “spies” for “betraying the religion of Allah” By Robert Spencer on Mar 14, 2015 08:09 pm No doubt Barack Obama and David Cameron are preparing a delegation to go to the Islamic State and explain to them how they are misunderstanding the religion of Allah. “ISIS executes nine ‘spies’ for ‘betraying the religion of Allah’ in second gruesome video to surface this week… but not before forcing the terrified captives to […] Read in browser » Afghan government gave CIA cash to al-Qaeda By Robert Spencer on Mar 14, 2015 07:53 pm “It was just another in a long list of examples of how the United States, largely because of poor oversight and loose financial controls, has sometimes inadvertently financed the very militants it is fighting.” And yet the CIA cash kept flowing to Afghanistan, and probably still does. “C.I.A. Cash Ended Up in Coffers of Al […] Read in browser » 600 UK Muslims waging jihad for Islamic State, only 25 have bank accounts frozen By Robert Spencer on Mar 14, 2015 07:27 pm Why would shattered, staggering, Dhimmi Britannia freeze more of these jihadis’ bank accounts? What if they need money while they’re waging jihad in the Islamic State? It would be “Islamophobic” to deny them. “Only 25 British terror suspects have had their bank accounts frozen despite more than 600 UK jihadists travelling to fight for ISIS, […] Read in browser » 5,000 foreign Muslims flock to Libya, heeding Islamic State’s call for jihadis By Robert Spencer on Mar 14, 2015 03:07 pm How odd that none of these 5,000 Muslims stopped and thought, “Wait a minute. John Kerry and David Cameron say that the Islamic State is not Islamic. I guess I better not join it after all.” “5,000 Foreign Fighters Flock to Libya as ISIS Call for Jihadists,” by Jack Moore, Newsweek, March 3, 2015: Over […] Read in browser » Video: Robert Spencer on why the Islamic State is Islamic By Robert Spencer on Mar 14, 2015 12:11 pm On Monday, March 9, 2015, I spoke to the ACT for America chapter in Mission Viejo, California, on the topic, “Is the Islamic State Islamic? And Why It Matters.” Read in browser » Ex-Ottawa imam tells Libyans “jihad today is simple and easily accessible” By Robert Spencer on Mar 14, 2015 11:09 am When Abdu Albasset Egwilla was in Ottawa, did he preach the same kind of thing? Why wouldn’t he have? And where are the people who heard him and heeded his words now? “Former Ottawa imam surfaces in video telling Libyans ‘jihad today is simple and easily accessible,’” by Stewart Bell, National Post, March 13, 2015 […] Read in browser »
