Netherlands: Friend says Utrecht jihadi “very religious,” three other Muslims arrested in connection to the massacre
By Robert Spencer on Mar 20, 2019 01:27 pm

This article says that two others have been arrested, and a third person has been arrested as well. So this does seem to be a coordinated jihad plot. In a note, Tanis said he was doing it in the name of Allah. Will the Islamophobia never end? “Brazen Shooting Traumatizes Dutch City, Three Days After […]

Sweden: Serious crimes being committed by returning Islamic State jihadists, cops don’t know where many of them are
By Christine Douglass-Williams on Mar 20, 2019 01:00 pm

“According to a new investigation, one in three returned Islamic State fighters in Sweden have committed serious crimes after coming back from the Middle East.” Shame on any political leader and authority who does not deal with these facts. No one who is migrating to a Western country checks his deep-seated doctrinal beliefs at the […]

“You are the partners to the Greater Middle East Project for the last 16 years,” Ince added. “You are those who are worthy of the Jewish Courage Prize with the services you have done and deserve this award.” Many commentators have taken this as a negative reference to the “Courage to Care Award” that Erdogan […]

Sarsour “triggered by hate mob” giving condolences for NZ while condemning Omar’s anti-Semitism
By Christine Douglass-Williams on Mar 20, 2019 09:00 am

“Liberal Muslim activist Linda Sarsour tweeted that she is ‘triggered’ by a ‘hate mob’ against Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar that is ‘now giving condolences’ to the Muslim community in the wake of the Christchurch, New Zealand shootings.” Ilhan Omar’s anti-Semitic comments should be condemned to the fullest, as should the violent massacre in Christchurch New […]

Netherlands: Utrecht jihad mass murderer left note saying he acted in the name of Allah

The Islamic State had an ambassador to Turkey
By Robert Spencer on Mar 20, 2019 08:00 am

It has been noted many times here that Turkey did not oppose the Islamic State in any effective way, and indeed, actively aided it in many ways. It seemed clear that Erdogan was hoping to co-opt the Islamic State, use it against the Kurds and Assad, and incorporate its domains into his own revived caliphate. […]
