By Robert Spencer on Sep 17, 2019 04:00 pm

Sexual assault occurs in all cultures, but only in Islam does it have divine sanction. One survivor of a Muslim rape gang in the UK said that her rapists would quote Quran to her, and believed their actions justified by Islam.

By Robert Spencer on Sep 17, 2019 03:00 pm

Does Jagmeet Singh have a plan to combat Islamic jihad terrorism? Of course not.

Is Jagmeet Singh aware of the history of his own Sikh religion vis-a-vis Islam […]

By Robert Spencer on Sep 17, 2019 01:00 pm

See? They’re moderates. But we are still much more enlightened in the West. In the U.S., those who insult Islam and Muhammad are demonized, stigmatized, ostracized, shadowbanned, and deplatformed. But they serve no jail time! Yet. “Court cuts jail time for Sarawakian convicted of insulting Islam, retains RM50,000 fine,” by Sulok Tawie, Malay Mail, September […]

By Robert Spencer on Sep 17, 2019 12:00 pm

Singapore: Muslim “grew to believe that violence in the name of religion was justified,” sent money to jihadi
By Robert Spencer on Sep 17, 2019 11:00 am

“In a statement last September (2018), the ministry said Hussein’s radicalisation had started in 2013, after he went online for religious knowledge and followed the lectures of several foreign radical ideologues.” See? Nothing to be concerned about. He was “radicalized online,” as so many other jihadis have been. No officials in any non-Muslim government would […]

By Robert Spencer on Sep 17, 2019 09:00 am

India: Muslim school principal makes hijab compulsory “to protect my students from evil eyes”
By Robert Spencer on Sep 17, 2019 08:00 am

Will the promoters of hijab in the West decry this as contradicting their constant claim that wearing the hijab is a “choice”? Don’t hold your breath. “AB Hannan, principal of an Assam school, makes Hijab compulsory for girl students to protect them from ‘evil eyes,’” OpIndia, September 15, 2019 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): […]
