Muslim cop tells friends, not investigators, he was “startled” by unarmed woman he killed
By Robert Spencer on Jul 19, 2017 04:51 pm

Now he feels as if his colleagues have thrown him under the bus. But it isn’t hard to understand their reluctance to stand behind him. Officers ought to be able to stand being “startled” without opening fire. This revelation only makes it more likely that Noor was only on the force to head off “Islamophobia” […]

Scotland: Islamic State calls on Muslims to target businesses owned by Jews
By Robert Spencer on Jul 19, 2017 04:31 pm

The Qur’an depicts the Jews as inveterately evil and bent on destroying the well-being of the Muslims. They are 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); […]

Islamic State flogs teenagers for playing soccer
By Robert Spencer on Jul 19, 2017 03:59 pm

“Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. […]

Pamela Geller: Linda Sarsour Raised $100,000 for a Jewish Cemetery. Where Is the Money?
By Pamela Geller on Jul 19, 2017 03:14 pm

After leftists designated sharia supporter and notorious Jew-hater Linda Sarsour a “leader” of the feminist movement, her ugly past came to the fore. In a bid to deceive and deflect, Sarsour staged a narcissistic publicity stunt. But now it is starting to look as if it is backfiring on her. Hundreds of Jewish gravestones were […]

Wisconsin: Marquette University pays for faculty to attend “Overcoming Islamophobia” workshop
By Robert Spencer on Jul 19, 2017 12:53 pm

It also “will offer a graduate credit for attendees that also submit a written assignment.” When will Marquette pay faculty to attend a workshop about the ideological and theological roots of jihad terrorism? Why, that would be inconceivable. And so would any honest discussion of the jihad terror threat at Marquette or most, if not […]

Australia: Muslim leader likens counterjihad Senator to ISIS, blames her for pig’s head at Islamic college
By Robert Spencer on Jul 19, 2017 12:37 pm

This is a common tactic. Anytime an “anti-Muslim hate crime” is committed, real or fake, Muslim and Leftist leaders place the blame on foes of jihad terror and their supposed “demonization of Muslims.” The goal is to silence all criticism of Islam and Muslims, including examination of how jihadis use Islamic texts and teachings to […]

NC Muslim admits he murdered elderly neighbor and plotted jihad for ISIS, insists “I’m not a bad person”
By Robert Spencer on Jul 19, 2017 12:10 pm

Yes, you are. “During a 10 a.m. court hearing in Burke County held under unusually tight security…” Apparently authorities were afraid that Sullivan’s coreligionists would strike on his behalf. “‘I am not a bad person,’ Isis conspirator says in admitting he murdered elderly neighbor,” by Michael Gordon, Charlotte Observer, July 17, 2017: A 21-year-old Morganton […]

Hamas accidentally admits that Muslims practice their faith “in complete freedom” in Jerusalem
By Robert Spencer on Jul 19, 2017 11:55 am

Tripping over their own taqiyya, Hamas has just contradicted its own claims that the Israelis have for years been persecuting Muslims and preventing them from practicing Islam freely at the Temple Mount. In complaining about the recent installation of metal detectors at the Temple Mount, which they should find unobjectionable unless they want to take […]

Boston to hang 50 posters addressing public harassment, “Islamophobia” around city
By Robert Spencer on Jul 19, 2017 11:31 am

“What to do if you are witnessing Islamophobic harassment” — not “What to do if you are witnessing jihad terror.” This is the city of the Boston Marathon jihad bombings, but the way Boston authorities are behaving, it was “Islamophobes,” not Muslims, who set off that bomb. No harassment of innocent people is ever justified; […]

Afghanistan: Muslim soldiers are using boys as sex slaves, and the U.S. is looking the other way
By Robert Spencer on Jul 19, 2017 11:08 am

What are we in Afghanistan for, if not to stand for our own values and the principles of human rights? Instead, U.S. officials are aiding and abetting the destruction of these boys’ lives — and all too often sacrificing the lives of our own troops. This is beyond shameful. “Those are the ones brought near […]

The Worst of All Tyrannies
By Michael Devolin on Jul 19, 2017 10:54 am

“Of all the tyrannies of humankind, The worse is that which persecutes the mind.” -John Dryden Facebook recently blocked me because I used an expletive to describe Omar Khadr, the convicted jihad terrorist (still a Canadian citizen) who just received 10.5 million dollars and a public apology from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Of course, it’s […]

Canada: Not just Omar Khadr, but three other Muslims received massive payments and government apologies
By Christine Douglass-Williams on Jul 19, 2017 10:06 am

There is a terrifying pattern in Canada now. In addition to rewarding jihadist Omar Khadr $10,500,000, leaving Canadians stunned, this message ended up in my inbox from a concerned Canadian citizen: “I can’t believe this was from March and no one remembers ever hearing about it. This would have caused quite the uproar, but somehow […]

Turkey: New school curriculum teaches jihad, requires all schools to have prayer room
By Robert Spencer on Jul 19, 2017 09:52 am

Erdogan’s re-Islamization of Turkey proceeds apace. Now that he has eliminated all effective opposition, essentially nothing stands between him and the fulfillment of his caliphate dreams. “Turkey’s new school curriculum drops evolution and will teach concept of jihad,” by Samuel Osborne, Independent, July 18, 2017: Turkey’s new school curriculum drops Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution […]

Minneapolis: Muslim cop who shot unarmed woman refuses to be interviewed by investigators
By Robert Spencer on Jul 19, 2017 08:39 am

And so the questions just grow more intense. There is still no evidence that Noor is a jihadi or that this was a jihad attack. But this does seem to be yet another manifestation of the fear of “Islamophobia” charges resulting in a Muslim being placed in a position for which he was not qualified […]

Australia: Muslim vandalizes 68 graves, avoids jail
By Robert Spencer on Jul 19, 2017 08:08 am

“The court heard he showed no remorse for his actions in damaging graves at the Rookwood Cemetery in 2015.” He showed no remorse because he thinks he did a great deed in the eyes of Allah. Damaging graves, many of which bore crosses (“most of the graves were in the Greek and Ukrainian sections of […]

London’s Muslim mayor says there should be “no red carpet for Trump”: he insulted Muslims

Back in January, Khan demanded the cancellation of Trump’s state visit to UK, stating that he was “quite clear, this ban is cruel, this ban is shameful, while this ban is in place we should not be rolling out the red carpet for President Trump.” Instead Khan would rather see the red carpet rolled out […]

Netanyahu: “Hungary ‘at forefront’ of fight against anti-Semitism”
By Christine Douglass-Williams on Jul 19, 2017 07:48 am

Viktor Orbán told the assembled media that previous Hungarian governments had “sinned” when they failed to protect the country’s Jewish population during the Second World War, and that he had “made it clear to Prime Minister Netanyahu that the government will secure the Jewish minority and that we have zero tolerance to anti-Semitism.” Heroic words […]
