“And you got the nerve to say that we are hateful?”
By Robert Spencer on Aug 27, 2017 10:58 pm

Yeah, how could I have gotten such a crazy idea, when I get love letters of this quality? Here is an email I received a few minutes ago. The words were all written out in full in the original; I starred them out to keep the Internet censors from pulling our plugs any more quickly […]

Canada: 80% of Dawoodi Bohra Muslim women have undergone female genital mutilation
By Robert Spencer on Aug 27, 2017 04:59 pm

This story works hard to give the impression that female genital mutilation is practiced among Muslims only by Dawoodi Bohras, and by Christians and Jews elsewhere. This is a marginal improvement over establishment media stories about FGM before the arrests of the physicians in Michigan; until those arrests, establishment media stories universally claimed that the […]

Tillerson: Gorka “completely wrong” to hit Trump for not saying “radical Islam”
By Robert Spencer on Aug 27, 2017 03:35 pm

“It shows a lack of understanding of the president’s broader policy when it comes to protecting Americans at home and abroad from all acts of terrorism. Terrorism has manifested itself in many types of organizations.” Yes, of course. Just consider that worldwide network of Amish terrorist groups. What this is about is whether or not […]

Dearborn Muslims in uproar over Christian proselytizing, police chief admits it “appears to be legal”
By Robert Spencer on Aug 27, 2017 12:59 pm

This Arab American News story is written as if the Christian preachers were spreading bubonic plague, and of course, for the Muslims interviewed for it, they might as well have been: Islamic law mandates death for those who leave the religion, and so from the Islamic perspective, these preachers were actively endangering the lives of […]

Myanmar: 4,000 non-Muslims evacuated as Muslims step up jihad attacks
By Robert Spencer on Aug 27, 2017 12:32 pm

The international media tries to make the crisis in Myanmar out to be another instance in which Muslims are being victimized, when in reality, as with Israel and the “Palestinians” and so many other instances, if the Muslims laid down their arms in Myanmar, there would be peace, whereas if the Buddhists laid down their […]

Belgium: One in five mosques investigated for “extremism” in 2016
By Robert Spencer on Aug 27, 2017 12:11 pm

What? Belgian authorities didn’t wave away concerns about the mosques as “Islamophobia”? “One in five mosques checked for extremism in 2016,” Brussels Times, August 27, 2017 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): Last year, State security investigated 58 places of worship as part of the fight against radical Islamism. That means that one in five […]

New Hampshire: Investigator charges mosque with “extremism,” police chief charges investigator with “Islamophobia”
By Robert Spencer on Aug 27, 2017 11:29 am

This Union Leader article is a particularly noxious example of how law enforcement authorities and the establishment media treat charges that a mosque may be teaching jihad and Islamic supremacism. As always, instead of investigating the charges and reporting on them accurately, they shoot the messenger. “On a scale of 1 -10, with 10 being […]

Philadelphia: Muslim gives finger to security cameras, urinates on front door of synagogue
By Robert Spencer on Aug 27, 2017 11:08 am

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); they fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); they claim that Allah’s power is limited (5:64); they love to listen to […]

Australia: Ex-human rights chief says “Sharia’s no different to Catholicism,” calls for Sharia courts
By Robert Spencer on Aug 27, 2017 09:30 am

Yes, Sharia and Catholicism are essentially identical, if you overlook all that business about stonings, amputations, wife-beating, death for apostasy, institutionalized discrimination against non-believers, and the rest. And as for Sharia courts, when they were established in Britain, officials repeatedly assured the public that they would only cover private matters on a voluntary basis, and […]

Brussels knife jihadi: Muslim migrant, “soldier of the Islamic State,” carrying two copies of Qur’an
By Robert Spencer on Aug 27, 2017 08:53 am

Two copies! Perhaps he wanted to be prepared for ready cross-referencing as the Infidels lay bleeding on the sidewalk. The learned imams Pope Francis and H.R. McMaster have a busy day ahead of them. After they head to Jamaica to explain to Sheikh Abdullah el-Faisal that authentic Islam and the proper understanding of the Qur’an […]

U.S. indicts Muslim cleric on terror charges
By Robert Spencer on Aug 27, 2017 08:05 am

A Muslim cleric? But how could a man who has devoted his life to understanding Islam properly and communicating it effectively have gotten the idea that the Religion of Peace was exhorting him to wage war against unbelievers? Learned imams such as Pope Francis and H.R. McMaster need to travel to Jamaica forthwith to explain […]

Boko Haram forced 83 children to be jihad suicide bombers in 2017
By Robert Spencer on Aug 27, 2017 07:26 am

A hadith has Muhammad saying: “By Him in Whose Hands my life is! Were it not for some men amongst the believers who dislike to be left behind me and whom I cannot provide with means of conveyance, I would certainly never remain behind any Sariya’ (army-unit) setting out in Allah’s Cause. By Him in […]

UK: Second Muslim arrested in connection with Buckingham Palace sword jihad attack
By Robert Spencer on Aug 27, 2017 07:06 am

Two lone wolves, so now it is an “isolated incident.” If they find one more lone wolf, we will elevate to “Muslims fear backlash.” “Second man arrested over Buckingham Palace terror alert,” Sky News, August 27, 2017: A 30-year-old man is held by police after officers outside the Royal residence were attacked by a terror […]
