By Robert Spencer on Mar 23, 2019 04:00 pm

He was ordered expelled from Hungary after being caught with forged documents on December 30, but he was detained on Friday, so clearly he didn’t leave after he was expelled. Also he seems to have moved freely around Europe for quite some time. His story is evidence that European authorities are overwhelmed and cannot deal […]

Omar holding secret fundraisers with Hamas-linked CAIR and terror-linked Muslim charity
By Robert Spencer on Mar 23, 2019 02:00 pm

The Democrats won’t say a word about this. They have already learned that nothing negative whatsoever can be said about Omar, on pain of charges of “Islamophobia.” And support for Hamas-linked CAIR is mainstream among the Democrats. They routinely appear at CAIR events and have no apparent interest in what the group is all about. […]

Virginia Muslim leader says it’s “Islamophobic” and “hate” to use words such as “Islamist extremist”
By Robert Spencer on Mar 23, 2019 01:00 pm

“Islamist extremist” is itself a phrase that attempts to distance Islam from the violence perpetrated in its name and in accord with its teachings. So is “Radical Islam.” But as far as Esam Omeish is concerned, any speech that suggests that there is any connection between Islam and jihad violence must be stigmatized and silenced. […]

Hugh Fitzgerald: In Gaza, Hamas Beats and Tortures Those Who Protest Its Misrule (Part Two)
By Hugh Fitzgerald on Mar 23, 2019 10:00 am

Fatah simply doesn’t have the presence in Gaza it once did. Hamas has threatened, imprisoned, expelled, or killed, many Fatah members in Gaza over the last dozen years. Until these latest protests began, it appeared to have an iron grip over the territory. In the dozen years since Hamas seized control of Gaza, it has […]

Netherlands: Muslim migrant who was “reading the Qur’an a lot” stabs Jewish father and son
By Robert Spencer on Mar 23, 2019 09:00 am

The father responded “I don’t know” when asked whether it was an anti-Semitic incident. But what about that Qu’ran he was reading? The Qur’an demonizes the Jews in numerous ways. It depicts the Jews as inveterately evil and bent on destroying the well-being of the Muslims. They are the strongest of all people in enmity […]

By Robert Spencer on Mar 23, 2019 08:00 am

Twitter has been notifying people that their tweets violate Pakistani blasphemy law, and removing the accounts not just of people who dissent from the Leftist agenda, but of those who violate Sharia blasphemy restrictions.
