Robert Spencer in FrontPage: Obama’s Fantasy Eid al-Adha
By Robert Spencer on Sep 16, 2016 04:03 pm

As he touts Islam’s fellowship and love, ISIS celebrates by hanging infidels from meat hooks. My latest in FrontPage: Barack Obama’s fantasy Islam made a new appearance Monday, when he issued a statement congratulating and praising Muslims on the occasion of the Muslim feast of Eid al-Adha: Michelle and I extend our warmest wishes to […]

PBS introduces lesson plan claiming that Muslims in U.S. are “targets of nativism”
By Robert Spencer on Sep 16, 2016 03:54 pm

This claim has been circulating for a long time but now it is really getting the full Big-Lie treatment from mainstream media propagandists. Subsequent graphics show Ben Franklin warning of the dangers of German immigrants; the ‘Know-Nothings’ displaying ‘anti-Catholic, anti-immigrant sentiment’; an illustration of the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882; Ku Klux Klan members in […]

By Robert Spencer on Sep 16, 2016 02:18 pm

It has now been five weeks since my debate with Msgr. Stuart Swetland, president of Donnelly College in Kansas City, Kansas, during which he stated his opinion that those who believe that Islam is not a religion of peace had placed themselves in a state of disobedience to the teachings of the Catholic Church: Msgr.

UK’s Guardian tries desperately to preserve the narrative of Muslim victimhood
By Robert Spencer on Sep 16, 2016 01:34 pm

Yesterday I wrote here about yet another anti-Muslim hate crime that wasn’t: a Muslim woman in New York City who was set on fire by some psychopath who, as it turned out, had also targeted non-Muslims. The Muslim victimhood industry has been working in high gear on this one, with victimhood propagandist Linda Sarsour penning […]

German TV ad cosponsored by UNESCO exhorts German women to wear the hijab
By Robert Spencer on Sep 16, 2016 01:13 pm

The woman is not wearing a hijab. She’s just wearing a scarf over part of her hair. Much of her hair is showing. Some of her bare leg shows also as she struts around. All these elements of the presentation would make it absolutely unacceptable to the Islamic hardliners that she (and the German government, […]

By Robert Spencer on Sep 16, 2016 01:04 pm

The Free Syrian Army, according to the Obama administration, is made up of “vetted moderates.” Here are his “vetted moderates” screaming “Allahu akbar,” “Death to America,” “Christians and Americans have no place among us. They want to wage a crusader war to occupy Syria” and “The collaborators of America are dogs and pigs. They wage […]

UK: Islamic State-supporting Manchester United steward murdered imam for practicing “black magic”
By Robert Spencer on Sep 16, 2016 12:50 pm

Manchester United is the beloved English soccer team — very English, very mainstream. Yet somehow Syeedy’s work for the team didn’t overcome his love for the Islamic State. Those who are counting on Muslims to assimilate in the West and give up jihad should take note. “Isis-supporting Manchester United steward murdered Rochdale imam for practicing […]

Pakistan: Muslim screaming “Allahu akbar” blows himself up inside mosque, murdering at least 25 people
By Robert Spencer on Sep 16, 2016 10:56 am

Why would a Muslim blow himself inside a mosque that was full of Muslims at prayer? The Qur’an forbids Muslims to kill other Muslims (4:92). But Islam has a death penalty for heretics and apostates. The jihad/martyrdom bomber may have considered that the local tribesmen, by killing a jihadi and capturing another, were “waging war […]

London mayor Sadiq Khan: We must affirm that Muslims can hold Western values, or they’ll join jihad groups
By Robert Spencer on Sep 16, 2016 10:42 am

“We play straight into the hands of those who seek to divide us, of extremists and terrorists around the world, when we imply that it is not possible to hold Western values and to be a Muslim.” Has anyone actually done that? Trump’s immigration moratorium is meant to prevent jihadis from entering the country among […]
