By Robert Spencer on Apr 13, 2018 09:25 pm

1. Is it certain that Assad’s regime really used the chemical weapons? There is so much manufacture of atrocities in that region, it cannot be taken for granted that he has, especially since there is no clear benefit to him in doing so. 2. What is the endgame?

Why it was so devastating when George W. Bush said “Islam is peace” right after 9/11
By Robert Spencer on Apr 13, 2018 05:28 pm

I wrote my forthcoming book The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS mostly chronologically, starting with Muhammad’s conquests in Arabia and moving forward. It’s a bloody history, and one indelible impression one gets from proceeding through the centuries of jihad warfare is of the persistence of the jihadis. They never give up, they never […]

By Hugh Fitzgerald on Apr 13, 2018 04:43 pm

In Germany, these past weeks, we have been treated to a back-and-forth among politicians about Islam and whether it should be considered  “part of Germany.” Some say yes and some say no.

Democrats grill Pompeo about personal rights of Muslims in the U.S.
By Robert Spencer on Apr 13, 2018 04:04 pm

This is a case of the Democrats believing their own rhetoric. Leftists and Islamic supremacists have been calling opposition to jihad terror and Sharia oppression of women, non-Muslims and others “anti-Muslim” for so long that many actually think that opposition is some attempt to deny Muslims rights.
