Kentucky Senate candidate Amy McGrath attended dinner hosted by Hamas-linked CAIR
By Robert Spencer on Oct 24, 2019 05:00 pm

Would Amy McGrath attend a dinner hosted by a group that opposed jihad terror? Of course not. Would she attend a dinner hosted by a Nazi group? Again, of course not. But she didn’t hesitate to attend a dinner hosted by CAIR. How is that different from attending a Nazi function? CAIR is an unindicted […]

By Robert Spencer on Oct 24, 2019 04:00 pm

“O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies. They are [in fact] allies of one another. And whoever is an ally to them among you – then indeed, he is [one] of them. Indeed, Allah guides not the wrongdoing people.” — Qur’an 5:51 Ibn Kathir, the renowned and […]

By Andrew Harrod on Oct 24, 2019 02:00 pm

Speakers at a September 12 panel at a conference on democracy in the Muslim world reflected Middle East Studies’ prevailing pro-Iran, anti-Saudi bias. That it occurred at the most infamous Saudi-sponsored academic center in America represents an ironic break with past practices that generally ignored Saudi human rights violations. All participants in the panel “Jamal […]

India: Muslims celebrate brutal murder of Hindu activist for insulting Muhammad
By Robert Spencer on Oct 24, 2019 01:00 pm

One of those celebrating wrote that the murder was a “good sign for the future.” There is no doubt that it is a sign for the future, whether or not it is good. It is a foretaste of what is coming soon to the U.S. “Islamists celebrate the brutal murder of Kamlesh Tiwari, NDTV leading […]

Erdogan’s jihad offensive didn’t begin with Trump’s withdrawal; it began many months ago
By Robert Spencer on Oct 24, 2019 12:00 pm

There is little, if any, possibility that those who are denouncing this troop withdrawal and demanding that U.S. forces protect Syria’s borders (not America’s) indefinitely will listen to reason, but here is some anyway. “Erdogan’s Jihad Offensive Began Many Months Ago,” by Clare M. Lopez, Center for Security Policy, October 15, 2019: …Events in the […]

Myth: Trump betrayed the Kurds. Reality: Kurdish leader thanks Trump for ceasefire.
By Robert Spencer on Oct 24, 2019 11:00 am

Don’t look for this in the establishment propaganda media. It doesn’t fit their narrative. Don’t expect retractions, either, from all those who condemned Trump in stinging terms for his actions in Syria. “Military leader of Syrian Kurds thanked President Trump for cease-fire,” by Sophie Sanders, The BL, October 24, 2019: The military leader of the […]

UK: Muslim cleric’s banned jihad terror group has revived and is holding meetings again
By Robert Spencer on Oct 24, 2019 09:00 am

Of course. No surprise here. The British authorities are too busy monitoring and restricting the activities of Tommy Robinson and his supporters to care about this. They have made their choice: they are determined to avoid offending Muslims and so do as little as they possibly can to impede jihad terror plotting. And they will […]

Lawyer for Islamic State bride says she is at “real risk of death” because she was stripped of UK citizenship
By Robert Spencer on Oct 24, 2019 08:00 am

Ms. Begum’s plight is a shame indeed, but it is self-imposed. Nobody forced her to sneak away to join the Islamic State. Tom Hickman’s appeal to compassion includes no compassion for those murdered by Shamima Begum’s husband, or for those who might be endangered in Britain if she returns and engages in jihad activity there.
