By Robert Spencer on Sep 21, 2016 09:03 pm

UK spy top dog: Jihad terror “will certainly be with us for our professional lifetime”
By Robert Spencer on Sep 21, 2016 08:30 pm

He also said why, albeit not directly. Terrorism, he said, “is fueled by a deepening sectarian divide in the Middle East and there are some deep social, economic and demographic drivers to the phenomenon we know as terrorism.” A “sectarian divide,” yes, that is true, there is the Sunni/Shi’ite divide, but that doesn’t fuel the […]

Despite references to jihad in NY bomber’s journal, investigators say they’ve found nothing linking him to terror groups

By Robert Spencer on Sep 21, 2016 12:53 pm

Offending jihadists is treasonous now.

Muslim who plotted to behead Pamela Geller returns to Catholicism, plans to plead guilty
By Robert Spencer on Sep 21, 2016 12:51 pm

If Rovinski is sincere in having left Islam, he is displaying a great deal of courage, as he will be in real danger from the Muslims in prison eager to enforce Islam’s death penalty for apostasy. If (and only if) he is sincere, this is a refreshing indication that some converts to Islam can step […]

NY jihad bomber says he got orders from “terrorist leaders…to attack non-believers”
By Robert Spencer on Sep 21, 2016 12:07 pm

Not that this has anything to do with… One might think that the authorities who constantly lie to us about jihad activity and its underlying motivations would be embarrassed by stories like these, and that one of them would break ranks and start telling the truth.

Turkey: Knife-wielding Muslim screaming “Allahu akbar” attacks Israeli embassy, authorities say he is “mentally unstable”
By Robert Spencer on Sep 21, 2016 11:13 am

Of course he is mentally unstable. Why else would a Muslim screaming “Allahu akbar” want to attack the Israeli embassy? It couldn’t possibly have anything to do with the Qur’an’s designation of the Jews as the worst enemies of the Muslims (5:82), now, could it? “‘Allah Akhbar’ Attacker Strikes Israel Embassy in Turkey — Staff […]
