Muslim cleric: Christians must pay the jizya or move out
By Robert Spencer on Dec 01, 2015 01:34 pm

The headline to this Breitbart piece says that al-Maqdisi was addressing Egypt’s Christians, but actually he says: “Today, the Islamic state rules over vast areas in Syria and Iraq despite the campaign against it by the crusader infidels. Christians carry on living in those regions over which the Islamic state governs. No one has expelled […]

Muslims plotted murder of Pope: “this will be the last Pope”
By Robert Spencer on Dec 01, 2015 11:33 am

These poor dears just don’t understand their own religion! Pope Francis needs to go visit them personally, and explain to them how “authentic Islam and the proper reading of the Koran are opposed to every form of violence.” If they don’t speak Italian, he could take along some Arabic-speaking Eastern Catholic bishop with a solid […]

Turkey denies widespread report that intel chief advocated establishing consulate for ISIS
By Ralph Sidway on Dec 01, 2015 11:20 am

The disputed report reads, in part, “Hakan Fidan, the head of Turkey’s National Intelligence Organization… said that it is imperative that ISIS must set up a consulate or at least a political office in Istanbul,” and “we must stop Putin from crushing the Islamic revolution.” Even if the report is false, it highlights global concerns over Turkey’s […]

Trump under fire for saying “there’s something going on” with Islam
By Robert Spencer on Dec 01, 2015 11:14 am

In light of the fact that Trump denounced our free speech event in Garland, Texas, last May, it is not at all clear that he understands the jihad imperative or the war against free speech, or is at all equipped to counter them. People like Trump, Bill O’Reilly and Laura Ingraham who took issue what […]

By Robert Spencer on Dec 01, 2015 10:48 am

Has he already forgotten the Paris jihad massacre? Note also what he says at the end about the importance of avoiding “demonizing organizations like Planned Parenthood.” This from a man who has never hesitated to demonize his opponents, among them those who speak the truth about the nature and magnitude of the jihad threat.

Video: Muslim asylum seekers in Italy approve of Paris jihad attacks
By Robert Spencer on Dec 01, 2015 10:19 am

Here’s an idea: let’s admit hundreds of thousands more of these people. What could possibly go wrong? Note also the reference to the Qur’an, the one motivating factor for their actions to which jihadis point, and which is nonetheless consistently and steadfastly ignored by Western analysts.

Video: Raymond Ibrahim on Caravan to Midnight: Postmodernism and Jihad
By Raymond Ibrahim on Dec 01, 2015 09:53 am

On November 20, I appeared on Caravan to Midnight, a subscription video podcast and syndicated radio talk show hosted by John B. Wells. Because the Skype video interview lasted nearly 90 minutes, a number of interesting but peripheral topics I normally don’t address were discussed, including how postmodern Western culture gives rise to the jihad. The video […]
