By Robert Spencer on Sep 09, 2015 10:05 pm

Bill Gates, Michael Bloomberg, Warren Buffett, the Koch brothers, Larry Ellison, Sheldon Adelson: none of them have done a thing to “provoke” this. They are not part of the U.S. government or military. They did not draw cartoons of Muhammad. Yet all too many people in the U.S. still believe that if they just do […]

Canada teen jihadi: “I understand Islam better than you”
By Robert Spencer on Sep 09, 2015 09:41 pm

“‘I understand Islam better than you,’ he told Soussi, citing as his source the father of Wahhabism, an austere form of Islam that interprets the Koran literally.” Soussi told him: “It’s not reading two articles and watching some videos on the Internet that makes you such a Muslim. You’re 15 years old. People spend 30 […]

Feds offer youth leadership opportunities to keep young Muslims from joining jihad
By Robert Spencer on Sep 09, 2015 07:55 pm

“Big Brothers Big Sisters has developed a mentorship program for Somali youth…” This seems to be based on the proposition that young men join the jihad because they lack trusted older people with whom they can talk. That seems to be a stretch. And as for the youth leadership opportunities, no details are given, but […]

Pakistan: Police accused of negligence in Muslim mob lynching of Christian couple
By Robert Spencer on Sep 09, 2015 07:09 pm

All too often in cases like this one, the police are sympathetic to the lynch mob. They share the same world view. Does Pakistan need a #ChristianLivesMatter movement? “ASIA/PAKISTAN – Christian couple lynched for blasphemy: the police accused of negligence,” Agenzia Fides, August 31, 2015: Lahore (Agenzia Fides) – The Supreme Court of Pakistan criticized […]

India Muslim leader threatens violence over government billboard misquoting Qur’an
By Robert Spencer on Sep 09, 2015 01:35 pm

So the billboard is inaccurate. So are the Islamic Circle of North America’s billboards up all over the United States these days, claiming that Muhammad taught peace and tolerance. The sane response from Shabbir Alam would have been to ask that the billboards be taken down, and the record set straight. But to threaten violence? […]

One of the went onto the Internet, you see, and “this has led him to misunderstand the real meaning of jihad” and try to support the Islamic State.

UK: Daily Mail reports “motiveless” 2012 crime as sign of 2015 “Islamophobia” rise
By Robert Spencer on Sep 09, 2015 12:29 pm

Whatever else it may be, the Daily Mail is certainly the most absurd paper in Britain. It generally has the best coverage in Britain of jihad activity and Islamic supremacism, and is a often refreshing antidote to the dreary dhimmitude and pro-Sharia cheerleading of the BBC and the Guardian. But it cheapens its coverage with […]

Al Azhar Grand Imam: Islam religion of peace, cooperation, and mercy
By Robert Spencer on Sep 09, 2015 12:00 pm

Before you break out the champagne, declare the jihad over and start singing John Lennon songs, remember that El Tayyeb when he said this was probably keeping his fingers crossed behind his back. He has shown himself over the years to be anything but a preacher of peace, cooperation and mercy: he has justified anti-Semitism […]

By Robert Spencer on Sep 09, 2015 11:46 am

So apparently in Shepard Smith’s ideal world, we have both gay marriage and Sharia. What will Shep says when supporters of Sharia start throwing gays off of tall buildings, as they do in the Islamic State, and in accord with Sharia? Will he continue to deny reality and find some new way to blame “right-wing […]

“There were days when seven to eight men — all from Saudi Arabia — would assault us”
By Robert Spencer on Sep 09, 2015 11:30 am

“There were days when seven to eight men — all from Saudi Arabia — would assault us.” Where did this Saudi diplomat get the idea to hold these women and use them as sex slaves? This account is eerily similar to the accounts of non-Muslim girls in Britain who have been brutalized by Muslim rape […]
