Robert Spencer in PJ Media: CAIR Enraged by ROTC Exercise Featuring Jihadis as Enemies
By Robert Spencer on May 21, 2018 02:43 am

ROTC’s got a lot of nerve to notice the global jihad. My latest at PJ Media: A ridiculous article last Thursday in UCLA’s student newspaper, The Daily Bruin, reveals the mindset of those who believe that “Islamophobia” is a bigger threat than jihad terror, and reveals yet again the insidious agenda of the Council on […]

Turkey bans Wikipedia for noting it supported the Islamic State in Syria
By Robert Spencer on May 21, 2018 02:41 am

Unless you’re a member of the Leftist establishment, Wikipedia is largely worthless for information on contemporary public figures, and its treatment of current events is also often one-sided and contentious. In this case, however, it has run afoul of the Turkish government for including information that government doesn’t want disseminated, in keeping with its longstanding […]

Ramadan Day 4 thought for the day from Robert Spencer’s The History of Jihad
By Robert Spencer on May 20, 2018 02:22 pm

Today’s Ramadan inspiration from my new book The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS comes from Muslim Spain, that celebrated beacon of tolerance and multiculturalism. The tolerance of Abd al-Rahman III, the tenth-century Umayyad caliph of Córdoba, is illustrated by the eleventh-century Muslim historian Ibn Hayyan of Córdoba as he details a typical incident […]

UK: Use your vote or end up with Khan or Magid
By Joshua Winston on May 20, 2018 01:59 pm

Muslims are political animals, and by animals I mean they move in a pack (sorry to disappoint all you race-baiters out there; at no point am I suggesting they look like animals). In a recent Tower Hamlets by-election, a morbidly obese taxi driver who admitted he has no experience in politics or how to handle […]

India: University to study “Islamic terrorism,” Muslim profs cry “Islamophobia”
By Robert Spencer on May 20, 2018 11:51 am

This is a clear indication of what I have long contended, that charges of “Islamophobia” are used to shut down honest discussion of the ideological roots of Islamic jihad terrorism, with the result being that the global jihad is able to advance unopposed and unimpeded. “JNU To Start A Study On ‘Islamic Terrorism’. Here’s Why […]

Malaysia: Yet another man arrested for insulting Islam on Facebook
By Robert Spencer on May 20, 2018 11:07 am

This keeps happening in “moderate” Malaysia. But in the West, we are much more enlightened. We don’t arrest people for insulting Islam. We simply excoriate them as “racists” and “Islamophobes,” and ostracize them from polite society. We are much more advanced in the West. In case you missed it: Mahathir Mohamed, who has famously said […]

Germany: Muslim migrant seriously injures two people, stabbing one in the neck
By Robert Spencer on May 20, 2018 10:53 am

“When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks…” (Qur’an 47:4) Before long, we will be hearing that stabbing random people in the neck is an old German tradition, predating Oktoberfest. Danke, Merkel! “Life-threatening relationship? Attacker brutally stabbed two people,” translated from “Lebensgefährliche Beziehungstat? Angreifer sticht zwei Menschen brutal nieder,” Tag 24, May 19, 2018 (thanks […]

German broadcaster claims Ramadan is “old German custom” celebrated in the country longer than Oktoberfest
By Robert Spencer on May 20, 2018 10:33 am

Oktoberfest, as the article below explains, dates from at least 1810, while the first mosque wasn’t built in Germany until 1915. So Eren Güvercin is lying, and Deutschlandfunk Kultur is giving him a platform, and Germans ignorant (or ashamed) of their history will eagerly embrace his propaganda, which is, of course, designed to make them […]

Hugh Fitzgerald: “Not Gaza, Not Lebanon, My Life For Iran”
By Hugh Fitzgerald on May 20, 2018 06:30 am

On April 28, at the Azadi (formerly Aryamehr) Stadium in Tehran, the crowd that filled the stadium — it can hold 100,000 spectators — chanted the last thing the ayatollahs wished to hear: “Reza Shah!” “Reza Shah!” over and over again. This chanting was a declaration of longing, of wanting back the late Reza Shah […]

By Andrew Harrod on May 20, 2018 06:13 am

Fresh off an anti-Israel film series, Washington, DC-area Episcopalians at St. John’s Norwood in upscale Bethesda, Maryland and elsewhere have once again taken the lead in demonizing Israel by hosting Reverend Naim Ateek. This Palestinian Anglican known for his anti-Semitic outbursts against Israel addressed St. John’s on May 16, before participating in more vitriol the […]
