London cops to stop investigating shoplifting and vandalism; arrests for “offensive comments” up 53%
By Robert Spencer on Oct 18, 2017 07:04 pm

Thoughtcrime is now more important to British police than actual crime, and that thoughtcrime is thinking that Islam is not a religion of peace and mass Muslim migration is a bad idea. Britain is finished as a free society. “Met Say Charging Shoplifters, Vandals ‘Not Practical’ as Arrests for ‘Offensive’ Comments Rise 53 Per Cent,” […]

Memphis imam Yasir Qadhi called for killing of gays and blasphemers, to speak in London
By Robert Spencer on Oct 18, 2017 06:56 pm

Qadhi said that to “kill … the homosexual – this is also our religion,” and that “to make fun of Allah and his Messenger, the punishment is death.” Those statements are just standard Islamic law, but there are still some who insist that Qadhi is a “moderate.” In any case, he will have no trouble […]

Massachusetts public high school assignment had kids simulate pilgrimage to Mecca
By Robert Spencer on Oct 18, 2017 06:43 pm

Great. When is the assignment to simulate taking Communion, or getting a Bar Mitzvah? Of course, there are no such assignments. The initiative to indoctrinate students with a partial and whitewashed picture of Islam, however, is near-universal in public schools across the country. “High school assignment had kids simulate Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca,” by Caleb […]

Boston: Muslim found guilty of plot to behead Pamela Geller
By Robert Spencer on Oct 18, 2017 03:30 pm

Why did Daoud Wright want to behead Pamela Geller? For the Sharia crime of drawing Muhammad. And in response, instead of standing for the freedom of speech, Western political analysts, including “conservatives” such as Bill O’Reilly and Laura Ingraham, condemned Pamela Geller for “provoking” Muslims. Those people have no idea what’s at stake, or how […]

Muslim Boston University prof: Robert Spencer is “Grand pooh-bah of the legion of American Islamophobes”
By Robert Spencer on Oct 18, 2017 02:57 pm

Kecia Ali, associate professor of religion at Boston University, has called me the “Grand pooh-bah of the legion of American Islamophobes.” Grand pooh-bah! Do I get a hat with horns? But seriously, what is this charge of being an “Islamophobe,” and where did it come from? I oppose jihad terror, and the Sharia subjugation of […]

UK government: Manchester jihad massacre not a hate crime
By Robert Spencer on Oct 18, 2017 02:22 pm

Because, you see, attacks upon “British or Western values” are not hate crimes as far as British authorities are concerned. Hate crimes can only be committed against Muslims, in the form of “offensive language.” A mass murder attack? Pah! It’s the price of “diversity”! (Thanks to Jihad Watch reader Michael for the scans.)

UK facing most severe terror threat ever, warns MI5 chief
By Robert Spencer on Oct 18, 2017 01:55 pm

Why on earth is this the case? Isn’t Britain a model multicultural paradise for the rest of the West? British authorities hound and persecute foes of jihad terror, and appease and accommodate Islamic supremacist groups. Why isn’t it working? Why do they still have jihad terror? And if Andrew Parker thinks it’s bad now, just […]

London police visit mosques to encourage reporting of “perceived hate crimes”
By Robert Spencer on Oct 18, 2017 07:20 am

The police are working with “Tell MAMA, a discredited ‘anti-Islamophobia’ group that lost government funding in 2013 after exaggerating statistics to further their cause.” It is unlikely that the London police know or care how many “anti-Muslim hate crimes” are actually faked by Muslims themselves in order to gain coveted victim status and deflect counter-terror […]

Robert Spencer in FrontPage: Can Islam Help Us Prevent More Sexual Abuse Scandals?
By Robert Spencer on Oct 18, 2017 06:06 am

Or has The Independent completely departed from reality? My latest in FrontPage: The UK’s Independent, hitherto generally regarded as not run by insane people, on Sunday ran a piece entitled: “How the teachings of Islam could help us prevent more sexual abuse scandals.” Now on the question of the Independent’s sanity, the jury is decidedly […]

Togo: Imam calls on Muslims to kill soldiers, Muslims riot after he is arrested
By Robert Spencer on Oct 18, 2017 05:48 am

“In his sermons he has been calling for violence and hatred… The last straw was last Friday when he called on his followers to kill soldiers.” An imam? How did he so spectacularly misunderstand the Religion of Peace, which he had dedicated his life to understanding correctly? We can only hope that learned imams such […]
