By Robert Spencer on Dec 08, 2017 05:54 pm

“He had visited mosques, but it was not yet clear whether he had been radicalized.” No, he hadn’t been radicalized. Waging war against unbelievers, including the “People of the Book,” is just ordinary Islam (cf. Qur’an 9:29). “Bosnian suspected of plotting Christmas market attack in Austria’s Graz,” Reuters, December 8, 2017: VIENNA (Reuters) – A […]

UK church holds joint birthday celebration for Muhammad and Jesus
By Robert Spencer on Dec 08, 2017 04:20 pm

Muhammad, according to Islamic belief, was given the Qur’an from Allah, through the angel Gabriel.

Do not exaggerate in your religion nor utter anything concerning Allah […]

Jerusalem: One dead as Muslims screaming “We need stones and Kalashnikovs” attack Israeli police
By Robert Spencer on Dec 08, 2017 01:55 pm

It’s a religion of peace and tolerance, and you’re a greasy Islamophobe if you think otherwise. And you can’t recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, because Muslims will riot. That’s right, the adherents of the religion of peace and tolerance. “One dead, scores hurt in Palestinian ‘Day of Rage’ over Jerusalem,” by Ali Sawafta, Reuters, December […]

Florida man gets 15 years prison for breaking windows and leaving bacon at a mosque
By Robert Spencer on Dec 08, 2017 08:30 am

Fifteen years? For vandalism? He smashed lights, cameras, and windows at a mosque, and left some bacon by the front door. The vandalism is inexcusable and the bacon obnoxious, but fifteen years? The sentence, says AP, “had a hate crime enhancement.” In other words, he is being made an example of. Because he did this […]

By Robert Spencer on Dec 08, 2017 08:10 am

“The myth of a post-9/11 ‘backlash’ against Muslims is politically motivated and spread by groups such as the Council of American Islamic Relations (CAIR), which presents itself as a civil rights group, but was founded to serve as a front organization for the terrorist group Hamas.” There you have it. “FBI Hate Crime Report: No […]

By Robert Spencer on Dec 08, 2017 07:57 am

“He told The College Fix in a phone call Monday that he pointed to pro-terrorist sentiment among British Muslims.” That got him suspended. The mindset is near-universal on college and university campuses, and apparently in high schools as well: Muslims are victims of wholesale discrimination and harassment, and so any discussion of jihad terror that […]

By Robert Spencer on Dec 08, 2017 07:37 am

This supports the argument that I presented in my book Did Muhammad Exist?, that Islam was not presented to the world in complete form by a man named Muhammad, but began to appear only decades later than the traditional date for Muhammad’s death, and is an amalgam of material from multiple sources, principally Judaism and […]

By Robert Spencer on Dec 08, 2017 06:59 am

In this new video, I explain how, while he was director of the FBI, Robert Mueller presided over and approved of the removal of all mention of Islam and jihad from counterterror training materials, thereby hamstringing agents’ ability to understand the motives and goals of jihad terrorists, and to counter them effectively.

ISIS vows to “make New Year’s Day hell” and attack people “on foot” at Christmas markets to dodge security barriers
By Robert Spencer on Dec 08, 2017 06:55 am

All those security barriers that European authorities have dressed up as festive Christmas decorations may be useless. “And prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may strike terror in the enemy of Allah and your enemy and others besides them whom you do not know, […]
