Syria: Islamic State blasts near Shia shrine murder at least 127
By Robert Spencer on Feb 21, 2016 08:54 pm
Not to worry. John Kerry is on the case. And once he has secured peace
in our time, he should travel to Raqqa to explain to the Islamic State’s
caliph how he is misunderstanding Islam. “As Kerry, Lavrov grope to
secure Syria truce, Islamic State blasts claim at least 127,” Japan
Times, February 22, 2016: […]

Saudi jihadi rehab program seeks less to give jihadis different view of Islam than to reinforce primacy of Saudi state
By Robert Spencer on Feb 21, 2016 07:58 pm
This much-touted program is actually a dismal failure:”These programs
may also fail to keep determined extremists from re-engaging in
terrorism following their release. When IS claimed credit for a suicide
bombing last October at an Ismaili mosque in the southern Saudi city of
Najran that killed two and injured 25, the bomber was described in […]

Sweden: Muslim migrants repeatedly rape 12-year-old boy, film the whole thing
By Robert Spencer on Feb 21, 2016 07:26 pm
In Afghanistan and elsewhere in the Islamic world, this kind of
behavior is broadly tolerated. Women are so devalued, men look to other
men and boys for sexual pleasure. Also, the Qur’an promises not just
virgins to the blessed, but boys like “scattered pearls”: “Those are the
ones brought near in the Gardens of Pleasure, […]

Southern Poverty Law Center expands its hit list of foes of jihad terror
By Robert Spencer on Feb 21, 2016 06:29 pm
The new SPLC list of hate groups, which is really a hate list designed
to defame pro-freedom groups, adds the David Horowitz Freedom Center,
with which I am affiliated, to its hit list. Of course I have been on it
for years. And it really is a hit list, as Fred Fleitz notes below:

Haroon Moghul: Trump’s spat with Pope shows us that the Islamic State is not Islamic
By Robert Spencer on Feb 21, 2016 02:28 pm
Here comes Haroon Moghul, the comic relief of the “Islamophobia”
victimhood propaganda industry, again. In life poor little Haroon so
cowers in fear of “Islamophobic” coffee servers that his Starbucks name
is not Haroon but “Dwayne,” but he is a paper lion behind the keyboard,
trafficking in defamation and dishonesty and taking advantage of his […]

Why you should side with Apple, not the FBI, in the San Bernardino iPhone case
By Robert Spencer on Feb 21, 2016 07:47 am
“What the FBI wants to do would make us less secure, even though it’s
in the name of keeping us safe from harm. Powerful governments,
democratic and totalitarian alike, want access to user data for both law
enforcement and social control. We cannot build a backdoor that only
works for a particular type of government, […]

By Robert Spencer on Feb 21, 2016 07:15 am
“The FBI wants us to make a new version of the iPhone operating system,
circumventing several important security features, and install it on
[the shooter’s] iPhone,” Cook added. “In the wrong hands, this software —
which does not exist today — would have the potential to unlock any
iPhone in someone’s physical possession.” It appears […]
