Over three years before that, I had left Islam, and I wanted to do my little part to prevent others from being deceived by Muslims and their attempts at whitewashing what Islam actually taught. Facebook was very new to […] Read in browser » Ancient arch of Palmyra, destroyed by Islamic State, to be recreated in Trafalgar Square and Times Square By Robert Spencer on Dec 28, 2015 03:05 pm Adding to the to-do list of jihadis in London and New York City. Importing huge numbers of refugees, some of whom are certain to share the Islamic State’s view of non-Muslim antiquities, while reconstructing those same antiquities, is just silly. “Ancient arch of Palmyra which was destroyed by Isis will be recreated in Trafalgar Square […] Read in browser » Video and transcript: Robert Spencer on modern man’s fatal conceit By Robert Spencer on Dec 28, 2015 02:39 pm In case you missed my talk from Restoration Weekend 2015 in Charleston, South Carolina, here it is again, complete with a transcript from FrontPage: Robert Spencer: Good morning.

Did they draw Muhammad? Did they in some other way provoke Muslims or poke them in the eye? Don’t they know that the proper response of Catholic bishops in the face of Muslim threats is to self-censorship and voluntary subjugation?

Barack “The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam” says that. Hillary “We’re going to have that filmmaker arrested” Clinton says that. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, certain that anyone […] Read in browser » Islamic State has department of “war spoils,” in accord with the Qur’an By Robert Spencer on Dec 28, 2015 12:16 pm This Reuters story doesn’t include this salient fact, and of course the establishment analysts it cites don’t mention it, but this concern for the proper distribution of the spoils of war is yet another example of the Islamic State’s scrupulous adherence to the Qur’an. The eighth chapter of the Qur’an is entitled al-Anfal, “The Spoils […] Read in browser » SDSU: Muslim Student Association demands “zero tolerance policy explicitly for Islamophobic speech” By Robert Spencer on Dec 28, 2015 11:01 am Here again we see how Leftist and Islamic supremacist groups use the term “Islamophobia” for both attacks on innocent civilians, which have no justification under any circumstances, and for honest examination of how Islamic jihadists use the texts and teachings of Islam to incite hatred and violence.
