Leftist assault on free speech continues, PayPal bans AFDI UPDATE: RESTORED
By Robert Spencer on Aug 21, 2017 07:23 pm

UPDATE: Restored. ———- It started with Jihad Watch, but it isn’t ending with Jihad Watch, or with AFDI, of which I am Vice President. The fascists have banned AFDI from PayPal and are no doubt moving down the list of the SPLC’s “hate groups” to crush all dissent from their line. AFDI’s President, Pamela Geller, […]

Blocked by PayPal, targeted by the Left — please donate now to help Jihad Watch keep going
By Robert Spencer on Aug 21, 2017 04:46 pm

You will notice a large new “DONATE” button on the right sidebar here at Jihad Watch. Please make use of it. The money goes to funding worthy trips that otherwise could not be undertaken, such as my trip to Philadelphia with David Wood over this past weekend to debate a couple of imams, as well […]

ProPublica, which got Jihad Watch dropped from PayPal, never tried to verify SPLC’s claims of “hate”
By Robert Spencer on Aug 21, 2017 03:30 pm

“They will not rest until every one of the names on SPLC’s dubious 900-member hate list is purged from the Internet. Make no mistake.” Indeed. But is it possible that the SPLC made a mistake, or added in some groups based on political motives? Why, of course not: the SPLC is infallible in matters of […]

Christine Douglass-Williams: unjustly targeted by Canada’s “Islamophobia” agenda
By Christine Douglass-Williams on Aug 21, 2017 03:12 pm

To citizens, friends and commentators to Jihad Watch: I sincerely thank those of you who have supported me in the unjust targeting of my personal writings for Jihad Watch, which I have written in my pursuit of human rights for all, justice for all, and the expectation of the pursuit of tolerance from all. Many […]

Persecuted Christian: My ordeal as an ex-Muslim in Iran and Turkey
By Persecuted Christian on Aug 21, 2017 02:45 pm

Editor’s note: the identity of the author of this piece cannot be revealed for obvious reasons. Below is a picture of his back after his encounter with Iranian authorities. Believing the wrong thing and having the wrong faith according to Islam, somehow is justifiable enough under Islamic Law to be prosecuted and even killed for. […]

Barcelona jihad murderer “recently started praying in a regular way. He never missed the time of his prayers.”
By Robert Spencer on Aug 21, 2017 12:21 pm

But instead of calling for an investigation of the teachings in mosques and a action (not just words) against jihad terror and Sharia supremacism from the Muslim community, the big media platforms are shutting down those who call attention to this problem. The powers in the world today clearly want more jihad terror, and less […]

Left-fascists of SPLC and ADL exploiting Charlottesville to destroy the freedom of speech and silence those they hate
By Robert Spencer on Aug 21, 2017 11:56 am

“SPLC, presumably ADL, and ProPublica just don’t like Robert Spencer’s opinions about the practice of Islamism and Jihad. Yet as we have seen in other contexts, rather than winning the war of ideas, they seek to stifle free speech and, in this case, dry up sources of revenue for their political opponents.” Yes, and they’re […]

BBC: “Is our response to grooming gangs racist?”
By Robert Spencer on Aug 21, 2017 11:38 am

Remember: this kind of thinking is what enabled the Muslim rape gangs in the first place. One Muslim rape gang victim said that when she went to authorities, “I was made to feel as though I was racist.” And 1,400 British non-Muslim children were gang-raped and brutalized by Muslims in Rotherham, and “several staff described […]

Pope: Rights of Muslim migrants override national security concerns
By Robert Spencer on Aug 21, 2017 10:38 am

The Pope has said: “We can speak today of an Arab invasion” of Europe. But here he is actively encouraging and abetting this invasion. Does he think the Muslim migrants will include none who wish to destroy the existing society by means of jihad and impose Sharia? Well, he has said that “authentic Islam and […]

McMaster, Mattis, and Tillerson prod Trump to send more American troops to train Afghan forces
By Robert Spencer on Aug 21, 2017 10:13 am

If this article is accurate, Trump is now fully a captive of the swamp. The Afghanistan misadventure has no purpose, no focus, and no goal. The Taliban and the Islamic State and other forces that want the Americans out are never going to give up, and there is no chance whatsoever that Afghanistan is going […]

France: Driver plows into bus stops at two separate locations, at least one dead
By Robert Spencer on Aug 21, 2017 05:50 am

Police don’t know if it’s an accident or deliberate. But seriously, what are the odds that someone would accidentally crash into two separate bus stops in two different places on the same morning? And so it is likely deliberate, and that means that it is quite possibly more vehicular jihad. Last June, the Islamic State […]

Hugh Fitzgerald: Saudi Arabia, Our Friend And Ally
By Hugh Fitzgerald on Aug 21, 2017 05:29 am

The State Department has just issued its annual report on religious freedom around the world. Saudi Arabia, to judge by the language of the report, vied with North Korea as the worst offender. The Saudis, Rex Tillerson said, ought to “embrace greater degrees of religious freedom for all of its citizens.” He cited criminal penalties […]
