Muslim former State Department official likens opposition to jihad terror to bigotry against Jews, blacks, Chinese
By Robert Spencer on Apr 07, 2018 09:44 pm

In its lengthy hit piece on Mike Pompeo and John Bolton, which I discussed at length here, the New York Times says this about Secretary of State-designate Mike Pompeo’s opposition to jihad terror and Sharia oppression: Wa’el N. Alzayat, who was a Middle East expert at the State Department and senior policy adviser to Samantha […]

UK: Muslim migrant talks of shooting Jews, killing the “old woman Elizabeth,” launching jihad massacre
By Robert Spencer on Apr 07, 2018 04:00 pm

Maybe “historians” concocted the fantasy that Queen Elizabeth is a relative of Muhammad in order to protect her from jihad attacks. It won’t work. “Somalian who ‘planned attack’ on Jews jailed for trying to join ISIS,” Jewish News, April 6, 2018 (thanks to Yohan): A delivery driver who harboured “chilling fantasies” about killing members of […]

“Historians” “discover” that Queen Elizabeth is related to Muhammad
By Robert Spencer on Apr 07, 2018 03:43 pm

This story is so ridiculous that even Britain’s most ridiculous paper, the Daily Mail, ought to be ashamed to publish it. No one could possibly know with the slightest degree of certainty that he or she is descended from Muhammad, which the dhimmi Daily Mail dutifully always refers to as “the Prophet Muhammad,” as if […]

Hugh Fitzgerald: A French poet’s tribute to the Jewish woman murdered by a Muslim
By Hugh Fitzgerald on Apr 07, 2018 03:02 pm

Yann Moix is a well-known French writer and regular guest on the talk show watched by millions, “On n’est pas couche” (which means: “We’re not ready for bed, we’ve still got lots to do”). The other day, in an emotional state, he read out part of a poem he had just written about Mireille Knoll, the 85-year-old Jewish […]

Germany: Cops say Munster vehicular attack driver had “psychological problems,” no links to terror orgs
By Robert Spencer on Apr 07, 2018 02:38 pm

Authorities are so dishonest about jihad attacks these days that it is impossible to take what they say at face value. Their accounts warrant close examination. “Six people are in critical condition and dozens more are injured after the vehicle was driven at high speed towards families outside a traditional German restaurant…” That certainly fits […]

New York Times’ Laurie Goodstein attacks Pompeo and Bolton for daring to notice there’s a jihad threat
By Robert Spencer on Apr 07, 2018 02:11 pm

The New York Times is immensely frightened by the appointments of Pompeo and Bolton, and that’s a very good sign. But they’ve put their smear machine into high gear. Much more below. “Pompeo and Bolton Appointments Raise Alarm Over Ties to Anti-Islam Groups,” by Laurie Goodstein, New York Times, April 6, 2018: Nearly two months […]

Turkish “human rights” committee to visit Europe to probe “Islamophobia”
By Christine Douglass-Williams on Apr 07, 2018 12:30 pm

The Turkish parliament’s so-called “human rights” committee “will travel to the heart of Europe to investigate rising Islamophobia on the continent.” Turkey and human rights are incongruous in the same sentence. Looking at the jihadist state’s own human rights record: Turkish leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan has called for an OIC “army of Islam” to attack […]

France: Imam berated Jews and women, yet authorities tolerated his sermons and occasionally cultivated him as an ally
By Christine Douglass-Williams on Apr 07, 2018 11:48 am

He is being deported now, but this is coming far too late. No ordinary preacher, El Hadi Doudi is perhaps France’s leading proponent of fundamentalist Islam. His influence extends throughout Europe, where his lawyer says the cleric is the only imam authorized to issue fatwas. In his preaching “he has often berated Jews, women and […]

France: Politician fined $6,150 for mentioning “migrant invasion”
By Christine Douglass-Williams on Apr 07, 2018 11:38 am

It is no secret that the West is saturated with Islamic hate preachers who spew the most offensive, hateful attacks against Jews and Christians, and who even incite violence and urge wife-beatings and other abuses.  When an infidel, however, offends Muslims, no matter how truthful or benign his statement, there results a hullabaloo, as in […]

Germany: Van crashes into crowd, 3 dead, over 30 injured, cops say it’s a terror attack
By Robert Spencer on Apr 07, 2018 11:01 am

This vehicular attack is unusual in that police are actually acknowledging that it’s a terror attack. Last June, the Islamic State published a poster depicting an SUV driving over a heap of skulls and bearing the legend “Run Over Them Without Mercy.” And the Islamic State issued this call in September 2014: So O muwahhid, do […]

Gaza protests: “One thing people don’t appreciate if they haven’t seen it is that this is not a peaceful demonstration”
By Christine Douglass-Williams on Apr 07, 2018 10:51 am

As part of the recent renewed violence in the ongoing jihad against Israel, Palestinians planned to “engulf the Gaza border with smoke and flames from thousands of burning tires….as Israel holds firm to its order to shoot any protesters who come close to the security barrier.” One Palestinian protester “threw a Molotov cocktail at the […]
