Over 200 convicted jihadis to be released in Europe over the next two years
By Robert Spencer on May 10, 2018 07:21 pm

The defense against the global jihad is a war. Jihad attacks in the West are single battles in that war. Yet authorities continue to prosecute jihadis as if they were a series of criminals committing separate and discrete criminal acts that are unrelated to one another.

By Robert Spencer on May 10, 2018 07:12 pm

By Robert Spencer on May 10, 2018 04:52 pm

“You do not interpret it as something threatening? ‘No, not me personally anyway. I can not speak to everyone, but no.'” Of course not. Who ever heard of jihad being something threatening?

The lesson of Korea is not applied often enough
By Robert Spencer on May 10, 2018 01:42 pm

The world is in the midst of momentous change, brought about largely because of Donald Trump’s refusal to accept the conventional foreign policy wisdom that appeasement and accommodation of sinister forces such as North Korea and the Islamic Republic of Iran is the path to peace, when actually appeasement only increases the aggression and bellicosity […]
