Renowned Islamic “reformer” and accused rapist Tariq Ramadan has custody extended by French police
By Robert Spencer on Feb 01, 2018 04:12 pm

This may be an indication that French authorities are taking these allegations seriously, but remember: Ramadan’s first accuser, Henda Ayari, wrote: “I have been silent for several years for fear of reprisals, because by threatening to file a complaint for the rape of which I was a victim, he did not hesitate to threaten me […]

Islamic Republic of Mauritania failing to tackle pervasive slavery
By Robert Spencer on Feb 01, 2018 04:02 pm

Where is the international outcry? Would caring for the slaves suffering today in Mauritania be “Islamophobic”? We constantly hear in the West that Islam forbids slavery, but reality is otherwise. The Qur’an has Allah telling Muhammad that he has given him girls as sex slaves: “Prophet, We have made lawful to you the wives to […]

Germany: Town teaches Muslim migrants how to pick up non-Muslim women
By Robert Spencer on Feb 01, 2018 10:54 am

Probably the reasoning here is that it’s better that these Muslim migrants try to woo and win over girls rather than simply seizing and raping them, but the kind of information they’re giving doesn’t really seem conducive to instilling civilized behavior. This young gentleman from Iran is not using the word as the all-purpose adjective […]

Indonesia: Muslims push ban on gay sex, cohabitation, sex outside marriage
By Robert Spencer on Feb 01, 2018 10:27 am

And remember: Indonesia is a model “moderate” Muslim nation. In any case, in a few years we will see the headline “France: Muslims push ban on gay sex, cohabitation, sex outside marriage.” In any case, you won’t hear a thing about this from gay spokesmen in the U.S. When Pamela Geller and I via AFDI […]

India: Nine Muslims arrested in plot to convert Hindu woman to Islam, sell her as sex slave to the Islamic State
By Robert Spencer on Feb 01, 2018 09:35 am

The seizure of Infidel girls and their use as sex slaves is sanctioned in the Qur’an. According to Islamic law, Muslim men can take “captives of the right hand” (Qur’an 4:3, 4:24, 33:50). The Qur’an says: “O Prophet! Lo! We have made lawful unto thee thy wives unto whom thou hast paid their dowries, and […]

Hamas enraged by designation of its top dog as “global terrorist”: “dangerous violation of international law”
By Robert Spencer on Feb 01, 2018 09:21 am

This is not a “dangerous violation of international law.” You want a “dangerous violation of international law”? I’ll give you a “dangerous violation of international law.” How about blowing up civilians on buses and in pizza parlors? Is that a “dangerous violation of international law”? How about murdering a family that is enjoying a quiet […]

UK: Muslim migrant refused to answer police when asked if he supported the Islamic State
By Robert Spencer on Feb 01, 2018 09:05 am

Now, of course, he says he misunderstood the question. I’m sure it was posed to him in so garbled and complicated a fashion as to make ready comprehension impossible. This is the same fellow who repeatedly prevailed upon Facebook to repost his jihad videos: “after they blocked his account, that he had contacted other organisations […]

Muslim jurist: “The occupation of the West will be done without war but quietly, with infiltration and subversion”
By Robert Spencer on Feb 01, 2018 07:42 am

“Yehezkeli notes that a ruling of the 1990s by a senior Muslim jurist states: ‘The occupation of the West will be done without war but quietly, with infiltration and subversion.'” That certainly appears to be what is happening. “Orthodox Jewish journalist goes undercover in the ‘silent jihad,'” by Yoni Kempinski and Mordechai Sones, Arutz Sheva, […]

FBI takes on “Islamophobia”
By Robert Spencer on Feb 01, 2018 07:29 am

The FBI is a deeply corrupt institution, a swamp that needs to be drained. If this ever happens, maybe we will find out the full story of why the FBI wanted to see Pamela Geller and me get killed in Garland, Texas. “FBI Takes On ‘Islamophobia,'” by Leo Hohmann, FrontPage, January 31, 2018: Two Michigan […]

Germany: Staples removes “Mohammed” ruler after complaints from Muslims
By Robert Spencer on Feb 01, 2018 07:18 am

They didn’t like that the ruler depicted “four veiled persons” next to the name Mohammed. A customer claimed “This promotes exclusion.” Staples rather fancifully explained that the veiled figures were ninjas, and removed the ruler from circulation. But what, really, was the problem? Islam’s prophet Muhammad ordered that women be veiled, covering everything but their […]
