Karen Armstrong, Vali Nasr hit West on Atlantic Council “Islamophobia” panel
By Andrew Harrod on Nov 03, 2016 06:34 pm
“What we want to do today is debunk myths,” stated Atlantic Council
President Frederick Kempe at the Washington, DC, organization’s October
20 event “Islamophobia: Overcoming Myths and Engaging in a Better
Conversation.” Yet the panelists merely offered hackneyed arguments
diverting attention from current Islamist threats, casting disrepute on
an Atlantic Council once founded to stimulate […]Read in browser »
Austria: Muslim migrant arrested after breaking into hospital to sexually assault female patient
By Robert Spencer on Nov 03, 2016 04:31 pm
The Qur’an teaches that Infidel women can be lawfully taken for sexual
use (cf. its allowance for a man to take “captives of the right hand,”
4:3, 4:24,
23:1-6, 33:50, 70:30). The Qur’an says: “O Prophet, tell your wives and
your daughters and the women of the believers to bring down over
themselves of their […]Read in browser »
Putin hits Europe for letting Muslim migrants get away with crimes: “A society that cannot defend its children has no future”
By Robert Spencer on Nov 03, 2016 04:18 pm
Russia has become the bogeyman of the 2016 presidential election, with
the Democrats far more exercised about the threat from Moscow than they
ever were during the Cold War (which they spent ridiculing those who
thought there was a genuine threat from the Soviet Union). But however
villainous one may think Putin is, he is […]Read in browser »
As global jihad advances, Obama Pentagon mulls easing rules for obese, pot smokers
By Robert Spencer on Nov 03, 2016 02:50 pm
Billions to the Islamic Republic of Iran. A massive influx of Muslim
migrants, among whom will inevitably be an unknowable number of
murderous Islamic jihadists. And now this. You’d almost think Obama
wanted to weaken the United States, except that would be
inconceivable…wouldn’t it? “Pentagon may ease recruiting rules for obese
people, pot smokers and […]Read in browser »
UK: Muslim leader says Muslims have “right” to use Sharia law in Britain
By Robert Spencer on Nov 03, 2016 09:49 am
“All that it is, you have these private and independent institutions
arise from different minority communities, Sharia councils and Beit Din
in the Jewish community, which are basically people who want to enact
their right to religious life without interference from secularists.” In
saying this, al-Andalusi ignores the problem with Sharia courts
entirely: Sharia councils […]Read in browser »
Robert Spencer in FrontPage: Yes, ‘Jihad’ Means Warfare Against Unbelievers
By Robert Spencer on Nov 03, 2016 09:27 am
For anyone who still doesn’t grasp the obvious, there’s the new
Politically Incorrect Guide to Jihad. My latest article in FrontPage:
Nothing ought to be plainer, and yet nothing is more obscured, than the
meaning of the Islamic concept of jihad. Even if its meaning were at all
unclear, every day Islamic jihadists do their […]Read in browser »

By Christine Williams on Nov 03, 2016 08:02 am
A newly-appointed chaplain for Toronto police is speaking out after
coming under fire from the police union for comments made about marriage
and women’s duties to their husbands. Here are “the relevant slides
from Sheikh Musleh’s lecture followed by his comments”, courtesy

Met presents Islam “cleansed of imperialism, brutality, absolutism, and institutionalized inequality of non-Muslims”
By Christine Williams on Nov 03, 2016 07:43 am
Politics is the last thing that enters the mind of visitors to art
museums. Propagandists are clever at manipulating and corrupting the
beauty of art to serve a hostile agenda. The Met’s “Jerusalem 1000 to
1400: Every People Under Heaven” exhibit in New York “pursues jihad by
other means”: it reeks with jihadist propaganda in […]Read in browser »
Australia: Muslim bookstore owner finances jihad in Syria; his “faith drove him” to do it
By Christine Williams on Nov 03, 2016 07:30 am
In a statement to the court, Succarieh said as a young Muslim man he
felt targeted by authorities, particularly after his brother’s death.
Note the same victimology narrative we have seen in so many cases: a
jihadi claims that he was unjustifiably targeted by authorities deemed
to an enemy to the jihad cause. Omar Succarieh’s […]Read in browser »

Gaza: Christians continue to be forced to convert to Islam
By Raymond Ibrahim on Nov 03, 2016 06:59 am
The plight of Christian living in Gaza under the Palestinian authority
continues to worsen. According to a new Arabic language report, recent
years have “witnessed a critical upsurge against the Christians,” who
only amount to approximately 2,500 people—surrounded by approximately
1.5 million Muslims. Local authorities have abandoned the tiny minority
to Islamist elements who have […]Read in browser »
