The New York Times Loves Iran, and Wants You to Love It, Too My latest in PJ Media: “People see Iran as politically charged and oppressive,” wrote Neeknaz Abari in the New York Times this week, “But there is a lot of beauty and innocence.” This entry in a gushing Times travel piece, “52 Places to Go,” was just the latest, and one of the most egregious, attempts to normalize the brutal, […] Read more 2021-01-23  •  Robert Spencer NBC’s Mehdi Hasan: ‘Far-Right Domestic Terror Threat More Dangerous Than Al Qaeda After 9/11’ My latest in PJ Media: Mehdi Hasan of NBC on Saturday provided a good example of the Left’s propaganda offensive to portray all support of Trump and all dissent from its agenda as dangerous terrorism that must be silenced and even criminalized. On the Mehdi Hasan Show and then on a Twitter thread, Hasan counted down five reasons […] Read more 2021-01-22  •  Robert Spencer California: Muslim lawyer praises Hitler, calls for new genocide of the Jews Will he be disbarred? Of course not. That would be “Islamophobic.” “The California bar investigated him and unbelievably found no actionable conduct.” There is so much corruption these days, you need wings to stay above it. The Jews in the Qur’an are called the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); they […] Read more 2021-01-22  •  Robert Spencer Sweden: Three Molotov cocktails thrown at church in Islam-dominated Stockholm suburb Anyone could have done this, anyone angry at Christianity and the Church, or anyone with a personal grudge against someone at this church in particular. However, the nearby presence of large numbers of people who believe that it is an insult to Allah to say that Jesus is the Son of God and died on […] Read more 2021-01-22  •  Robert Spencer Back to the endless wars: US military convoy enters northeast Syria This is one of the primary reasons why Trump is no longer president: he took on the military-industrial complex that finds these wars profitable. They proved too powerful and too well-connected to be defeated. And so now Americans will once again expend their blood and treasure in conflicts that cannot conceivably be solved by American […] Read more 2021-01-22  •  Robert Spencer Iraq: Muslims murder at least 32 in crowded Baghdad market in first big jihad suicide attack in three years Hmmm. What has changed that has made jihadis feel more emboldened? It’s a real head-scratcher… “First big suicide attack in Baghdad for 3 years kills at least 32,” Reuters, January 21, 2021 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): BAGHDAD — Two men blew themselves up in a crowded Baghdad market on Thursday, killing at least […] Read more 2021-01-22  •  Robert Spencer Jailed for life over plot to behead cop, UK’s youngest convicted jihad terrorist is now ‘suitable for release’ What could possibly go wrong? The Parole Board for England and Wales says he is “suitable for release” because of “progress made while in detention.” And they must know, right? Concerted efforts must have been made while RXG was in prison to disabuse him of his jihadist sentiments, right? Actually, no. No. Nothing, nothing whatsoever, […] Read more 2021-01-22  •  Robert Spencer Spain: Migrant arrival in Canary Islands up 234% from 2020, areas forming ‘where police cannot even enter’ Given the hostility to the police that they’re already demonstrating, what are the chances that the new arrivals will become loyal Spanish citizens? What does that say about the future of Spain? “The Police warn of the risk of ghettos forming in the Canary Islands: ‘There is a lack of troops,'” translated from “La Policía […] Read more 2021-01-22  •  Robert Spencer
