Ohio: Muslim who tried to join ISIS asks for leniency: “I was confused but my intent was to be part of the solution”
By Robert Spencer on Mar 10, 2019 05:00 pm

“I just want to ask you for mercy and leniency for me. … you will never regret it.” If U.S. District Court Judge Walter Rice falls for this, he will be gambling with the lives of innocent civilians. Of course, it would be “Islamophobic” to bring up Muhammad’s dictim “war is deceit” (Bukhari 4.52.268) in […]

Italy: Muslim migrants stabs two passersby in train station, cops say it’s not terror-related
By Robert Spencer on Mar 10, 2019 04:00 pm

How they arrived at this conclusion is not explained. Was it because the victims were an Ivorian and a Gambian, suggesting that perhaps this incident involved African migrant drug dealers or some other criminal activity?

Islamic State Muslima grabs uncovered hair of female reporter: “Have you not read the Qur’an, are you not ashamed?”
By Robert Spencer on Mar 10, 2019 01:00 pm

All those Western analysts and politicians who have insisted ever since the Islamic State began to gain notice that it had nothing whatsoever to do with Islam have never explained why its most fanatical exponents think it has everything to do with Islam, and constantly cite Islamic texts to support its own policies and positions.

By Robert Spencer on Mar 10, 2019 11:00 am

He says: “The Jews are the vilest people…” The Qur’an says: “Indeed, they who disbelieved among the People of the Book and the polytheists will be in the fire of Hell, abiding […]

3. “It says in the Qur’an that a man can beat his wife if she is disobedient. Could you comment on that?” Azzi: “Yes, I’m glad you asked that question. It’s true that some 1400 years ago, and not just in the Middle East but in Europe, men had far more control over their wives […]

There are doubtless many Western analysts and foreign policy “experts” who believe that Islamic State jihadis will now return to normal lives, like ordinary soldiers of a conventional defeated army. These analysts do not recognize, or refuse to accept, that jihadis consider themselves to be only the latest wave in a 1,400-year war, a war […]

Germany: Muslim screams “Allahu akbar” at funeral service for woman murdered by Muslim migrant
By Robert Spencer on Mar 10, 2019 08:00 am

Syndia was murdered by a Muslim migrant. Apparently one of his friends or at very least coreligionists decided to proclaim this as victory of Allah at her funeral service. Many people at the church, hearing these screams of “Allahu akbar,” fled. How “Islamophobic” of them! Perhaps the English-language establishment media’s full-court press a few years […]
