Egypt’s Mufti: Jihad terrorists are misunderstanders of Islam and Qur’an By Robert Spencer on Apr 10, 2015 09:39 pm Here is the Grand Mufti of Egypt with yet another disappointingly deceptive piece about how jihad terrorists are misunderstanding Islam — a point that everyone seems to take for granted as axiomatic except the jihad terrorists. And this piece won’t inspire any of them to lay down their arms and concentrate on the jihad of […] Read in browser » Kansas: 2nd Muslim charged in Fort Riley jihad mass murder plot By Robert Spencer on Apr 10, 2015 08:29 pm All for the Islamic State. Remember that Ohio jihadist Raheel Mahrus Ubaydah (Christopher Lee Cornell) warned recently about Islamic State sympathizers: “We’re here in Ohio, we’re in every state. We’re more organized than you think.” “Federal prosecutor: 2nd man charged in Kansas bombing plot,” by Nicholas Clayton and John Hanna, Associated Press, April 10, 2015: […] Read in browser » Kansas: Muslim charged with jihad plot to bomb Fort Riley for the Islamic State By Robert Spencer on Apr 10, 2015 01:41 pm The feds were hunting for Mohammed Abdullah Hassan last year after discovering his intention to wage a “Fort Hood-style jihad.” But they determined that he presented no imminent danger. So last Friday he tried to murder as many Americans as possible at Fort Riley. I guess by “no imminent danger” they mean “he won’t try […] Read in browser » Poll: More than half of Americans have unfavorable view of Islam By Robert Spencer on Apr 10, 2015 12:18 pm It is not surprising that Jaweed Kaleem and the Huffington Post would assume that this unfavorable view stems from ignorance of Islam, or from the poll respondents’ not knowing a Muslim personally. No doubt this will be spun as an example of the success and influence of the nefarious (and fictional) “Islamophobia industry,” which supposedly […] Read in browser » Syria: Female jihadis screaming “Allahu akbar” set up jihad training camp in world’s oldest Byzantine church By Robert Spencer on Apr 10, 2015 10:50 am “We came out to fight for our religion and our country. We came out to train women to be the same as men, to defend their rights if they are attacked by that evil tyrant [Bashar al-Assad] and his soldiers and whoever follows him.” Empowering women by teaching them how to murder Infidels efficiently. Imagine […] Read in browser » Islamic State stones man to death for being gay By Robert Spencer on Apr 10, 2015 10:24 am Woe to you — from the gay community — if you dare to point out Sharia persecution of gays. When Pamela Geller and I ran ads highlighting the mistreatment of gays in Islamic law, the San Francisco City Council issued a resolution condemning not that mistreatment, but our ads. Gay advocates such as Theresa Sparks […] Read in browser » Finnish parliament cancels free speech event featuring Muhammad cartoonist Lars Vilks over security concerns By Robert Spencer on Apr 10, 2015 09:56 am Everywhere the West cowers in fear of the Muslim thugs who will kill over cartoons. Enough is enough. They’re just cartoons. Are we going to stand idle while psychopaths who would commit murder because of them frighten the free world into giving up the freedom of speech, the cornerstone of a free society? It’s time […] Read in browser » Australia Muslim leader: Muslims join jihad because “blood is boiling” over domestic persecution & West’s atrocities By Robert Spencer on Apr 10, 2015 09:43 am This is arrant nonsense: Muslims aren’t persecuted in Australia or anywhere else in the West. In fact, they enjoy more rights in the West than they do in Muslim countries. What Keysar Trad means by persecution is counter-terror efforts, and that reveals the insidious edge to his claims here: he is essentially calling for an […] Read in browser » Leftist feminists’ abandonment of women under Islam — on The Glazov Gang By Robert Spencer on Apr 10, 2015 09:21 am This latest episode of the unfolding magnificence that is the Glazov Gang features our hero chatting up the winsome Ann-Marie Murrell, the lead anchor and national director and editor-in-chief of PolitiChicks.com. She is the co-author (with Dr. Gina Loudon and Morgan Brittany) of the new book, What Women Really Want. Ann-Marie focuses on Leftist feminists’ […] Read in browser » Iranian city bars Christians from celebrating Easter in churches By Robert Spencer on Apr 10, 2015 07:36 am An American President who wasn’t a full-on appeaser might have insisted during negotiations with Iran that there would be no deal unless the Iranian regime guaranteed the full rights of religious minorities. “IRAN: Christians barred from holding Easter celebration in churches in northwestern city,” NCRI, April 7, 2015 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): NCRI […] Read in browser »
