“Everything the president wants to do, McMaster opposes,” say former NSC officials
By Robert Spencer on Aug 04, 2017 06:01 pm

“I know that the president isn’t a big fan of what McMaster’s doing. I don’t understand why he’s allowing a guy who is subverting his foreign policy at every turn to remain in place.” McMaster is an energetic exponent of the damaging fiction that “the Islamic State is not Islamic.” Trump campaigned on the proposition […]

Police chief ousted after Muslim cop shot unarmed woman named Woman Law Enforcement Executive of the Year
By Robert Spencer on Aug 04, 2017 05:37 pm

The shooting of Justine Damond by Mohamed Noor should have been the occasion for a wholesale nationwide reevaluation of the idea that police officers should be hired and kept on the force on the basis of their race and religion, not on the basis of merit. Not only has that not happened, but instead, Janee […]

Muslim Miss Universe contestant wears kaftan instead of bikini in swimsuit competition
By Robert Spencer on Aug 04, 2017 05:15 pm

Some people may object to these pageants in principle, but as far as I know, no one was forcing Muna Jama to enter the Miss Universe contest in the first place. Miss Universe is a beauty contest. It has always included a swimsuit competition. In fact, a swimwear company founded the competition in the first […]

Claim: US Muslims more accepting of homosexuality than white evangelical Christians
By Robert Spencer on Aug 04, 2017 04:29 pm

If Pink News really thinks that this is a sign that Muslims are becoming accepting of homosexuality, it is in for a rude surprise.

By Robert Spencer on Aug 04, 2017 03:03 pm

What an amazing coincidence!

Hugh Fitzgerald: Qasim Rashid and Harris Zafar, Or, Why Bother?
By Hugh Fitzgerald on Aug 04, 2017 02:04 pm

A recent letter to the editor of The Oregonian — just one of many similar letters being sent out by energetic Ahmadis — makes the predictable claims, denies any justification for terrorism in the “Holy Qur’an,” calls “true Islam” a “religion of peace,” and suggests that the best way to prevent “so-called” Muslims from terrorism […]

Germany: New study shows that Islam plays greater role in “radicalization” than previously realized
By Robert Spencer on Aug 04, 2017 09:46 am

It only wasn’t realized among those who refused to see what was in front of their faces, but this new study in any case shows once again that the claim that jihad terrorists know little about Islam is false. “Islam plays a greater role in radicalization,” translated from “Islam spielt bei Radikalisierung größere Rolle als […]

YouTube moves to block videos with “controversial religious or supremacist content”
By Robert Spencer on Aug 04, 2017 09:12 am

As we have seen so many times before, this is being sold as a measure to stop jihad terror recruitment, but will end up being used against foes of jihad terror whom Leftist and Islamic supremacist groups defame as “hate groups.” “YouTube Creates ‘Limbo’ for Controversial Videos,” by Anita Carey, Church Militant, August 3, 2017: […]
