Germany: Woman marries Muslim migrant, converts to Islam, helps him plot jihad massacre
By Robert Spencer on Mar 09, 2019 04:00 pm

Novelist pulls book before publication after Twitter mob outrage over its featuring a Muslim villain
By Robert Spencer on Mar 09, 2019 03:00 pm

Because in the Left’s fantasy world, Muslims are not and can never be villains; they are always and in every case victims of hateful, “Islamophobic” Western Christians.

By Robert Spencer on Mar 09, 2019 12:00 pm

I didn’t run the video here because it made me sick, but Danish authorities have another motive: they want to make sure that as few people as possible realize the nature and magnitude of the global jihad. “And to prove that this beheading video won’t deter other young women from backpacking in Morocco, the liberal […]

Mauritania: Parliament twice rejects laws stiffening penalties for violence against women
By Robert Spencer on Mar 09, 2019 11:00 am

Why? Because such laws would be un-Islamic. The Qur’an teaches that men are superior to women and should beat those from whom they “fear disobedience”: “Men have authority over women because Allah has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them.

By Robert Spencer on Mar 09, 2019 09:00 am
