By Robert Spencer on Feb 14, 2018 05:08 pm

Paid for by Barack Hussein Obama’s pallets of cash delivered to the Islamic Republic of Iran. Treason is defined as giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

California: Prison counselor converts to Islam, goes to Syria to join the jihad
By Robert Spencer on Feb 14, 2018 04:58 pm

Yet another convert seems to get the idea that his new religion is not exactly one of peace, contrary to what we’re constantly told by non-Muslim and Muslim authorities in the U.S. Yet authorities show no interest whatsoever in this phenomenon. “Public records show his last listed address in Sacramento was on the 4700 block […]

By Robert Spencer on Feb 14, 2018 02:31 pm

“A 20-year-old policewoman, who has been described as ‘radicalised’ by colleagues, has been arrested in the heavily migrant-populated Paris suburb of Seine-Saint-Denis after being accused of stealing firearms.” “Radicalized” by colleagues? Why are these jihadis on the force? Was any effort made when they were hired to determine whether or not they held jihadist sensibilities, […]

By Robert Spencer on Feb 14, 2018 11:27 am

Ishaq Akintola issues a clear threat of violence and murder, based on the Qur’an: “​The Qur’an affirms that oppression is worse than killing (Qur’an 2:191). ​This verse underlines the gravity of the hijab phenomenon.

Turkish TV host to secular newspaper editors: “I wish there was Sharia in this country, then they would hang you all”
By Robert Spencer on Feb 14, 2018 11:12 am

Somehow Yusuf Ozan has gotten the idea that Islamic law mandates violence, and isn’t about just getting the kids to school on time and hitting the gym regularly. How odd! Doubtless some CAIR spokesmen is on his way to Turkey now to explain to Ozan how he is misunderstanding the peaceful dictates of the religion […]

Malaysia: Muslim beats his 9-year-old daughter to death for making mistakes while reciting Qur’an
By Robert Spencer on Feb 14, 2018 10:59 am

A culture of violence, the foundational text of which commands men to beat women from whom they “fear disobedience” (Qur’an 4:34), is going to give rise to this sort of thing, just as that same foundational text’s calls for violence against unbelievers (2:191, 4:89, 9:5, 9:29, 47:4, etc.) are going to give rise to jihad […]

Muslim Brotherhood-linked Rep. Ellison claims meeting with Farrakhan and Rouhani “not an endorsement”
By Robert Spencer on Feb 14, 2018 10:37 am

And that’s that. He won’t have to resign from his DNC post, much less from Congress. The establishment media will not bother him. He will suffer no consequences whatsoever. The Democrats and establishment media will take at face value his claim to disavow anti-Semitism. There will be no whisper about his links to the Muslim […]

By Robert Spencer on Feb 14, 2018 09:32 am

But would it ever publish a foe of jihad terror? Not on your life. My latest in FrontPage: At least they admit it.

Wikipedia deletes article on Minnesota jihad arsonist: “No source indicating that Hassan is a Muslim”
By Robert Spencer on Feb 14, 2018 09:24 am

Wikipedia has some limited value if you want to get some facts about Tiberius Caesar or Henry Agard Wallace or Leon Spinks, but on contemporary issues it has — like virtually everything else — a pronounced hard-Left, pro-jihad bias. The biographies of Islamic apologists (John Esposito, Karen Armstrong, Reza Aslan, etc.) are fawning press releases, […]

By Christine Douglass-Williams on Feb 14, 2018 08:28 am

Today, February 14, is Valentine’s Day, the sacred day that intimate companions mark to celebrate their love and affection for one another.
