Islamic State burns alive two caged Turkish soldiers
By Robert Spencer on Dec 25, 2016 12:09 am

Obama and others often invoke the Islamic State’s murders of other Muslims to support their claim that the Islamic State is un-Islamic. But since Islamic law mandates death for apostasy and heresy, this doesn’t establish their point. They burned these soldiers alive probably because they believe that they were involved in burning areas under Islamic […]

Heightened security for Midnight Mass at the Vatican due to Islamic State threats
By Robert Spencer on Dec 24, 2016 02:41 pm

All these heightened security measures should immediately be dismantled. Why? The Pope’s own words. These security measures are hardly welcoming to the stranger. “It is hypocritical to call yourself a Christian and to chase away a refugee, or anyone who needs your help. Jesus taught us what it means to be a good Christian in […]

Austria: Police arrest two Muslim migrants brandishing knives outside synagogue
By Robert Spencer on Dec 24, 2016 01:25 pm

Incitement: the Qur’an depicts the Jews as the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); as fabricating things and falsely ascribing them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); claiming that Allah’s power is limited (5:64); loving to listen to lies (5:41); disobeying Allah and never observing his commands (5:13); disputing and quarreling (2:247); […]

“Some career officials said they feared the incoming administration may be looking to undo the work that the Obama administration has done on countering violent extremism.” Let’s hope so! Let’s hope that Trump’s team is requesting these names so that all those who are responsible for the denial and willful ignorance that has hamstrung our […]

Putin: “I would prefer Islam not to be mentioned in vain alongside terrorism”
By Robert Spencer on Dec 24, 2016 12:49 pm

Your preference is noted, sir. Now what do you propose to do to convince Islamic jihad terrorists not to mention Islam “in vain alongside terrorism”? Will you travel to the Islamic State (maybe Pope Francis could go with you) and convince the caliph that he is misunderstanding the religion of peace? Will you confront and […]

Sympathy for the devil: AP says “troubled” Berlin jihad killer came to Europe “in hopes of a better life”
By Robert Spencer on Dec 24, 2016 12:37 pm

Aw, the poor lovable lug. AP has no way of actually knowing that Anis Amri went to Europe “in hopes of a better life,” rather than to kill as many Infidels as possible. But since AP and the rest of the establishment propaganda media never acknowledges that Muslims ever, ever want to kill Infidels under […]

By Robert Spencer on Dec 24, 2016 12:18 pm

Why is this happening? Why are tanks in the streets of major cities, guarding Christmas markets? Why is the entire Western world on edge? Because European and North American authorities have admitted large numbers of Muslim migrants into their countries, among whom are unknowable numbers of jihad terrorists, and allowed Sharia enclaves to grow in […]

Turkish police: “Our path is the path of Allah. And our army is the army of the Prophet.”
By Robert Spencer on Dec 24, 2016 11:37 am

How did Mevlut Mert Altintas, the Turkish police officer who assassinated Russian ambassador Andrey Karlov, become a jihad murderer? He went to Turkish schools and underwent Turkish police training, both of which manifest a sensibility decidedly different from what one might expect in a supposedly secular republic. “We have nothing to do with salaries, money […]

Denmark: Imam convicted of violating racism laws for calling Jews “children of apes and pigs”
By Robert Spencer on Dec 24, 2016 11:14 am

What are Danish authorities going to do when they find out that these “racist comments” are based on the Qur’an? “And when We took your covenant, and We raised over you the mount, ‘Take what We have given you with determination and remember what is in it that perhaps you may become righteous.’ Then you […]
