Mali: Jihadis storm hotels, murder 4, kidnap 6
By Robert Spencer on Aug 07, 2015 05:41 pm
“One of the most brazen attacks in months.” After being driven out of
power by the French several years ago, the jihadis in Mali are bolder
than ever. Clearly they see the world turning in their direction. “4
dead, 6 kidnapped after Islamic extremists attack hotels in Mali,”
Associated Press, August 7, 2015 (thanks to […]

FBI now sending some potential Islamic State jihadis to counseling
By Robert Spencer on Aug 07, 2015 05:18 pm
The FBI is bound as a matter of policy to ignoring and denying the
ideological wellsprings of the jihad terror threat in Islamic doctrine.
So it is understandable that it would look for causes in other places,
no matter how implausible. There is also a whiff of Soviet-era
totalitarianism in this: the Soviet Communists declared […]

Robert Spencer in FrontPage Mag: Malaysian Mufti Denounces Intellect and Logic as Un-Islamic
By Robert Spencer on Aug 07, 2015 11:39 am
In FrontPage today, I discuss Islam’s persistent anti-intellectualism: The Malay Mail Online reported Tuesday
that the Perak mufti, Tan Sri Harussani Zakaria, advised Muslim members
of the government “not to go overboard.” He reminded them that “Islam
is based on faith… Don’t make any remarks based on the intellect or
logic…” Why not? Because “the […]

Virginia: Muslim firefighter put on paid leave for saying of cops, “We have to start putting them in body bags”
By Robert Spencer on Aug 07, 2015 11:09 am
Threaten the police, get a paid vacation. This apparently has to do not
with jihad but with today’s rampant race-baiting and demonization of
the police, but it is noteworthy that a man whose faith so often
prescribes violence as a solution to problems would think of this as a
solution to the problem of alleged […]

Islamic State abducts 230 civilians, including at least 60 Christians, after capturing Syrian town
By Robert Spencer on Aug 07, 2015 09:52 am
These people were probably abducted so as to collect ransoms.
Kidnapping infidels and releasing them for ransom or enslaving them, as
well as killing them if that option is deemed most advantageous for the
Muslims, is fully sanctioned in Islamic law: “As for the captives, the
amir [ruler] has the choice of taking the most […]

Muslim cleric: A woman must not have sex with her slave; she can marry him, turning him into her master
By Robert Spencer on Aug 07, 2015 09:43 am
Aside from the lurid details about Sheikh Mashhoor bin Hasan
Al-Salman’s bordello Paradise and his view of marriage as a master/slave
relationship, note how he takes slavery for granted. He never questions
the idea that a woman might own a slave. Slavery is taken for granted
in the Qur’an and Islamic law, and so even […]

Bangladesh: Muslims hack to death fourth atheist blogger
By Robert Spencer on Aug 07, 2015 09:30 am
“The BBC’s Akbar Hossain in Dhaka says Mr Neel had filed a police
report expressing fear for his life, but his complaints had not been not
followed up.” Clearly among the Bangladeshi police there are Islamic
supremacists who believe that atheists such as Niloy Neel deserve to
die, and that it is Muslims’ responsibility to […]

Mauritania frees senior Malian Islamic jihadist
By Robert Spencer on Aug 07, 2015 06:47 am
“Freeing an individual of this calibre will obviously allow him to
again take up his jihadist activities and continue to commit crimes.”
Why did Mauritania free such a man? Could it be that the Mauritanian
government is sympathetic to his cause? That seems obvious, but no
Western government will face it or its implications. “Mauritania […]

UK Muslim who admitted sharing jihad videos rants about “enemy of Islam court”
By Robert Spencer on Aug 07, 2015 06:21 am
He said he should be tried only by an Islamic court. British
authorities will no doubt ascribe this to his “mental health problems,”
without pausing to consider the fact that Islam asserts political
authority and rejects all non-Muslim political authority. Yet that fact
is going to cause Britain a great deal of trouble in the […]
