John Kerry meeting with Iran’s Foreign Minister to sabotage Trump’s efforts to scrap the Iran nuke deal
By Robert Spencer on May 04, 2018 09:02 pm

Does this not place Kerry in violation of federal law? The Logan Act forbids unauthorized people to engage in negotiations with foreign governments that are involved in disputes with the United States. The Logan Act’s intention is to prevent unauthorized negotiations from undermining the position of the U.S. government. Isn’t that exactly what Kerry is […]

Germany: 200 migrants attack police cars sent to deport one migrant, force police to flee
By Robert Spencer on May 04, 2018 04:37 pm

These migrants may not have been Muslim; the man they were defending was from the Congo, which is not a majority-Muslim country. But it shows that the migrant situation is rapidly spiraling out of control in Germany, with the police unable to stand up to migrants acting in groups. This bodes ill for Germany, and […]

Islamic Republic of Mauritania: “Blasphemer” still in jail despite serving twice longer than his sentence
By Robert Spencer on May 04, 2018 04:25 pm

This is a great injustice, but they could have put him to death. There is much support in the Qur’an and Sunnah for the death penalty for blasphemy.

By Robert Spencer on May 04, 2018 04:13 pm

“Allah said to us about the Jews: ‘Whenever they kindle the fire of war, Allah extinguishes it.’ They slay the prophets and people who command justice.

Russia starts advanced construction on new Iranian nuke plant
By Robert Spencer on May 04, 2018 03:58 pm

This is sometimes true of Islamic nations as well: look at the rhetoric of the Islamic Republic of Iran. “Riverview dad accused in family killings frets about his ‘good name,’” by Dan Sullivan, Tampa Bay Times, May 3, […]

By Christine Douglass-Williams on May 04, 2018 09:43 am
