ISIS bride explains why she joined the group: “I came for the Jihad, for Sharia and the Islamic State”
By Robert Spencer on Sep 29, 2017 04:52 pm

Another head-scratcher for those who insist that the Islamic State has nothing to do with Islam or Sharia, and that those who joined it knew little and cared less about Islam. “‘I Came for the Jihad’: Women Tell of Life in the Islamic State,” by Sara Manisera, Newsdeeply.com, September 29, 2017: Khadija al-Humri came to […]

Jihad preacher Anwar al-Awlaki’s “content remains consistently and readily available on YouTube”
By Robert Spencer on Sep 29, 2017 04:39 pm

YouTube recently removed a “Robert Spencer” playlist as “inappropriate.” YouTube has deleted a popular ex-Muslim’s Arabic material criticizing Islam. YouTube is censoring content to suit Iran’s Islamic authorities. “YouTube accused of labelling terror preacher Anwar al-Awlaki’s calls for violent jihad as ‘inappropriate’ content – but failing to ban up to 70,000 of his videos,” by […]

FBI: White nationalist violence at least as big a threat to U.S. as the Islamic State
By Robert Spencer on Sep 29, 2017 04:09 pm

This is wildly unlikely. The Islamic State is a global network of terrorists; white nationalists aren’t. The Islamic State has issued numerous calls for the murder of civilians inside the U.S.; white nationalists haven’t. The Islamic State has inspired many terror plots and attacks in the U.S. already; white nationalists, far fewer. This bogus analysis […]

“An indispensable guide to how leftists from Linda Sarsour to Bernie Sanders have joined forces with Islamic enemies of women”
By Robert Spencer on Sep 29, 2017 02:26 pm

“Robert Spencer is one of the most informed scholars on the nature of Islam and the jihadist threat. He is also one of the bravest. Confessions of an Islamophobe is an indispensable guide to how American leftists from Linda Sarsour to Bernie Sanders have joined forces with the Islamic enemies of women, gays, Jews, Christians, […]

UK: Muslim migrant who paraded “Hitler You Were Right” sign jailed for jihad terror offenses
By Robert Spencer on Sep 29, 2017 01:58 pm

How unrestricted Muslim immigration has enriched Theresa May’s Britain! Did British authorities really think the attitudes toward Jews inculcated by the Qur’anic material below would not come into Britain along with believers in the Qur’an? More likely, they do not know, or care, that this material exists. The Qur’an depicts the Jews as inveterately evil […]

Germany: Muslim preacher from Iraq on trial for recruiting for the Islamic State
By Robert Spencer on Sep 29, 2017 01:40 pm

This is what Angela Merkel has wrought: “Germany’s security services estimate there are around 10,300 radical Islamists in the country, compared to some 3,800 in 2011.” “About 700 of them are considered dangerous and capable of a violent attack.” That is almost certainly a drastically inaccurate low estimate. “Nicknamed ‘the faceless preacher’ for showing his […]

Australia: Muslim asylum-seeker from Myanmar jailed for marrying underage girl
By Robert Spencer on Sep 29, 2017 01:17 pm

“The man wedded the 14-year-old at an Islamic mosque in the Melbourne suburb of Noble Park in September last year when he was 34.” Has the mosque been investigated? Shut down? If not, why not? After all, the judge said: “To say that you come from a culture permissive of child marriage carries no weight […]

Pinterest blocks Jihad Watch as “hate speech”
By Robert Spencer on Sep 29, 2017 12:30 pm

Here is yet another manifestation of what I have noted frequently lately: that the Left is using Charlottesville as its Reichstag Fire moment, to choke off all dissent. Why does Pinterest think that Jihad Watch, a site dedicated to tracking the jihad threat, is “hate speech”? Doubtless because of the Southern Poverty Law Center’s “hate […]

Hugh Fitzgerald: John Simpson of the BBC, “Doing My Best to Make Sense of a Crazy World”
By Hugh Fitzgerald on Sep 29, 2017 11:48 am

In the Telegraph, John Simpson, a journalist since 1966 with the BBC, and its World Affairs editor since 1988, upon whom all sorts of awards have been lavished, writes a more-in-sorrow article about Aung San Suu Kyi. What interested me was not his denunciation of her, or his complete disregard of how the Buddhists in […]
