By Robert Spencer on Nov 15, 2016 04:17 pm

Somehow these Muslims seem to have gotten the idea that Islam had something to do with violence. I trust that Pope Francis and John Kerry and other learned imams of that caliber are traveling to Germany now to explain to these members of “The true religion” group how they’re misunderstanding their peaceful religion. “Germany bans […]

Germany’s spy agency finally admits that the Islamic State is infiltrating refugee groups to get into Europe
By Robert Spencer on Nov 15, 2016 03:45 pm

I’ve been pointing this out for well over a year, but you know, it was a “racist” and “Islamophobic” thing to say. But now we hear this admission: “IS announced that it would send attackers to the continent through the route which refugees were taking.

Noam Chomsky: “The Republican Party has become the most dangerous organization in world history”
By Robert Spencer on Nov 15, 2016 02:37 pm

Not the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. Not the National Socialist German Workers’ Party. Not the Khmer Rouge. Not the Islamic State. No, none of them are “the most dangerous organization in world history.” That honor, as far as Noam Chomsky is concerned, belongs to the Republican Party of the United States. This is […]

Robert Spencer in FrontPage: Steve Bannon and Keith Ellison: Do the Democrats Really Care About Anti-Semitism?

President-elect Trump has enraged the establishment media by choosing Steven K. Bannon as his chief strategist, because Bannon, they claim on the flimsiest of evidence, is a white supremacist and an […]

By Robert Spencer on Nov 15, 2016 10:32 am

My friend and colleague at the David Horowitz Freedom Center, Michael Finch, was more insightful and aware of what was going in the country than legions of establishment pundits. That is of a piece with the Freedom Center being one of the few institutions that recognizes and speaks honestly about the nature and magnitude of […]

Pro-Israel artist threatened with 5 years in jail for anti-terror posters at GMU
By Robert Spencer on Nov 15, 2016 09:56 am

Oleg Atbashian grew up in the Soviet Union. He came to the free world. Now the Soviet Union has come to him, courtesy today’s authoritarian academic Left. Dissenting voices are absolutely unwelcome on college and university campuses today, and administrators increasingly enforce this authoritarian lockstep using their thuggish security personnel. A case in point is […]

Israel: Muslims enraged at bill to muffle early-morning Muslim call to prayer
By Christine Williams on Nov 15, 2016 08:04 am

Islamic supremacists have a sense of entitlement. Any opposition to their way is deemed either “Islamophobic,” racist, hateful, not inclusive or anti-peace. But notice that they generally stand unique in levying such charges. Amnon Be’eri-Sulitzeanu, co-executive director of the Abraham Fund coexistence group, declares about the justified “muezzin bill”: “Relations between Jews and Arabs in […]
