By Robert Spencer on Jan 15, 2020 03:00 pm

Myron Tyquan Clark may be a Muslim, of course, or he might be an infidel who admires the “strong horse.” Either way, he has somehow misunderstood the religion of peace in the way that Islamic apologists in the US insist that only “Islamophobes” do. “PD: Man threatens Glendale family, police saying ‘Allahu Akbar, I have […]

Canada: CEO of Maple Leaf Foods blames “the narcissist in Washington” for Iran’s shooting down Ukraine jet
By Christine Douglass-Williams on Jan 15, 2020 02:00 pm

Displaced anger at Trump instead of Iran is dangerous at a time when the oppressive, bloodthirsty Iranian regime is escalating its aggression. By now, everyone should know that appeasement of jihadists buys them time to escalate. 1400 years of history has shown that jihadis are only kept at bay by force, not appeasement. One person […]

21 Saudi Muslim military students removed from US training program, 17 had jihadi or anti-American material

Why weren’t they investigated for this kind of thing before they got here, and before the Pensacola jihad massacre?

Attorney General Barr says Pensacola jihad murderer was motivated by “jihadist ideology”
By Robert Spencer on Jan 15, 2020 12:00 pm

This is momentous. For years now, since Obama in 2011 banned all mention of Islam and jihad from counterterror training, the US government has been committed to the fantasy that there is no jihadist ideology. There are still many in the clueless and compromised FBI and other agencies who believe these delusions. “AG Bill Barr […]

“Hugo Micheron, a researcher at the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS), has claimed that the rise in jihadist activity in France and Belgium is directly linked to ‘neglected’ enclaves and prisons in the two countries.” More explicitly: He went on to specifically highlight the arrival of Islamist preachers in the 1990s from Afghanistan […]

Mahmoud Abbas is “Livid” That European Donors Now Place a Condition on Their Aid
By Hugh Fitzgerald on Jan 15, 2020 10:00 am

The Palestinian Authority is thoroughly alarmed. It likes to get lots of money – billions and billions of dollars – from European and other Infidel donors.

By Christine Douglass-Williams on Jan 15, 2020 09:00 am

This is a particularly concerning time to have a man such as the advisor to the Egyptian mufti Dr. Ibrhaim Negm in America; he’ll be speaking at universities, which are notorious for harboring Muslim Brotherhood offshoots such as the Muslim Students Associations and Palestinian Solidarity Networks. Negm will be perpetuating the “Islamophobia” subterfuge. Negm is […]

By Robert Spencer on Jan 15, 2020 08:00 am

The Frankfurt Regional Court’s concern for the rights of Bilal G. is laudable. Indeed, it is a hallmark of Western civilization.

What are the chances that he will now become a loyal, stable, productive German citizen? […]
