“Why should I feel any pain or trouble in cutting off the hand that was raised against the Holy Prophet?” By Robert Spencer on Jan 24, 2016 12:21 am No one would dare try to explain to this poor boy why cutting off his hand was a ridiculous thing to do that has destroyed his life. To try to do so would be ethnocentric, racist and “Islamophobic.” One wonders, however, when reading this heartbreaking account, if the glories of multiculturalism and cultural relativism are […] Read in browser »   Seattle: “Strict Muslim” who killed 4 was on terrorism watch list By Robert Spencer on Jan 23, 2016 08:31 pm Obviously being on the terrorism watch list doesn’t mean that authorities actually, you know, watch you. “Prosecutor: Seattle man charged with killing 4 was on terrorism watch list,” by Ben Finley, Associated Press, January 20, 2016 (thanks to Pamela Geller): NEWARK, N.J. — A Seattle man charged with killing four people in Washington and New […] Read in browser » Iran funding recruitment of Pakistani Shias to battle the Islamic State By Robert Spencer on Jan 23, 2016 08:18 pm Meanwhile, among Sunnis, “graffiti, banners and hate literature supporting I.S. has been found across Pakistan as far back as 2014.” For a group that the entire Western intelligentsia insists is not Islamic, the Islamic State sure has a lot of traction among Muslims. John Kerry, David Cameron, and Pope Francis have not yet deigned to […] Read in browser » UK: Muslim-owned gas station convenience store chain stops selling alcohol By Robert Spencer on Jan 23, 2016 08:01 pm This is a glimpse into Britain’s future. These new Muslim owners are forbidden by Islamic law to sell alcohol, although that law is widely ignored. This is the inherent supremacism of Sharia: it isn’t enough for Muslims to opt not to drink alcohol; no one else must be allowed to do so, either. “Petrol station […] Read in browser » Islamic State “expanding to Kashmir to fight the cow-worshipping Hindus” By Robert Spencer on Jan 23, 2016 07:45 pm “Many of the people of Kashmir and the soldiers of the factions left and made hijrah to Wilayat Khurasan…Thus, there’s a big opportunity, with Allah’s permission, to establish the religion of Allah there and for the Islamic State to expand to it.” Not that this has anything to do with… “ISIS ready to expand its […] Read in browser » Premature detonation: “Palestinian” jihadi killed by his own bomb By Robert Spencer on Jan 23, 2016 07:35 pm No fatwa on whether or not virgins will still be awarded. “Terrorist killed by own bomb during attempted attack on security forces,” Jerusalem Post, January 24, 2016: The terrorist approached the military outpost holding a bomb in his hand which, according to reports, exploded prematurely.

Probably not. But they have nothing but contempt for the country of the kuffar. “REPORT: Locals Fled Pool After Migrants Masturbated Into Jacuzzi, Defecated Into Kid’s Pool, Invaded Girls Changing Rooms,” by Oliver Lane, Breitbart, January 22, 2016: A German swimming bath has […] Read in browser » Biden: US & Turkey prepared for “military solution” to take out the Islamic State By Robert Spencer on Jan 23, 2016 06:40 pm Somehow I doubt that Crazy Joe is on the level here about either the U.S. or Turkey. “Biden: U.S. and Turkey prepared for military solution in Syria,” by Bradford Richardson, The Hill, January 23, 2016 (thanks to Jerk Chicken): Vice President Joe Biden on Saturday said the U.S. and regional ally Turkey are prepared to […] Read in browser » American Muslima: “Alhamdulilah finally got my Hizam [suicide belt] today…to kill the kuffars” By Robert Spencer on Jan 23, 2016 10:44 am Alhamdulilah = thanks be to Allah. Kuffars = unbelievers. But don’t be concerned. John Kerry and Marie Harf are going to visit her and offer her a job at Walmart, and she will give up the jihad forthwith, and hey, Richard Chartres has a beard, which should calm her down considerably. “EXCLUSIVE: American Female ISIS […] Read in browser » Bishop of London: Christian clergymen should grow beards to reach out to Muslims By Robert Spencer on Jan 23, 2016 10:16 am Great idea, Richard. Maybe also Muslim clergymen could start wearing crosses to reach out to Christians. But of course that will never happen. The “outreach” always and in every case goes one way, and one way only. Richard Chartres here quotes St. Paul: “I become all things to all men that by all possible means […] Read in browser » Muslim group says Germany must ban alcohol if they want to prevent further sex attacks By Robert Spencer on Jan 23, 2016 09:28 am The problem with this argument is that alcohol has been in Germany for a long, long time, and there was never a mass of rapes and sex assaults as there was in Cologne and other German cities on New Year’s Eve. The cause of the rapes and sex assaults was the Islamic attitude toward Infidel […] Read in browser »
