UK: Leftist party suspends candidate for challenging “Islamophobia” narrative, asking about compulsory hijab and FGM
By Robert Spencer on Apr 18, 2019 05:00 pm

Dániel Tóth-Nagy doesn’t get it. The leaders of the Liberal Democrats, however, do get it: Islam is now supreme in Britain. The human rights abuses that are committed in accord with Sharia directives are never to be questioned. To question them is to render oneself “Islamophobic” and beyond the realm of acceptable discourse. Dániel Tóth-Nagy […]

By Christine Douglass-Williams on Apr 18, 2019 04:00 pm

Muslim Rep. Rashida Tlaib hosts another supporter of “Palestinian” jihad terror on Capitol Hill
By Robert Spencer on Apr 18, 2019 02:00 pm

There will be many others. Those who think Tlaib is going to stop doing this kind of thing are naive. The plan here is to normalize and mainstream support for the bloodiest, most avowedly genocidal “Palestinian” jihad terror groups. The Democrat leadership, which has already betrayed Israel, will fall in line with alacrity. “SCOOP: Rashida […]

Muslims who claimed to be above Australian law fined by non-Muslim judge who assures them he follows Qur’an
By Robert Spencer on Apr 18, 2019 01:00 pm

“The Holy Koran considers justice a supreme virtue, and I assure the defendants that this court pursues that virtue in every case it deals with, just as the Holy Koran requires of its adherents,” Justice Terence Sheahan told Mustapha and Diaa Kara-Ali. He could have just said, “In Australia, Australian law applies to everyone.” Instead, […]

London: Young Ahmadis teach in the streets that Islam is a religion of peace
By Christine Douglass-Williams on Apr 18, 2019 12:00 pm

“A group of young British men training to be imams are trying to dispel negative perceptions about Islam.” This group belongs to the Ahmadiyya community. Negative “perceptions” about Islam are based on cold, hard facts that it is prudent to not ignore. The Ahmadiyya sect, however, is peaceful, but unfortunately, it only makes up one […]

Yesterday Jihad Watch reported about the Quebec Solidaire politician Eve Torres, who wrote of the Notre Dame fire that Allah had caused it because of France’s burqa ban, claiming that the ban had stirred up the wrath of Allah, and “here is the result!” She also made a veiled threat: “If I were (Quebec Premier […]

Hugh Fitzgerald: The Fire at Notre-Dame and Muslim Schadenfreude (Part One)
By Hugh Fitzgerald on Apr 18, 2019 10:00 am

Before the devastating fire at Notre-Dame broke out, there had been two months of attacks on French churches all around France, very few of which were reported on in the media outside France, and some of which hardly received sufficient coverage inside the country. There was a fire set at St. Sulpice, the second-largest church in […]

PLO negotiator: In 2008, Israel offered “Palestinians” state larger than West Bank and Gaza, Abbas said no
By Robert Spencer on Apr 18, 2019 09:00 am

This should come as no surprise to anyone who understands the root causes of the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, beyond the cant and willful ignorance of the foreign policy “experts.” I explain why it was inevitable that Abbas would reject this offer, and why any similar offers would also be rejected, in my forthcoming book The Palestinian […]

Muslim Rep. Rashida Tlaib: “Honestly, I never felt more Palestinian than I ever felt in Congress”
By Robert Spencer on Apr 18, 2019 08:00 am

Remember: this is the same person who accused pro-Israel Americans of dual loyalty. Tlaib doesn’t have to worry about similar accusations being made against her: she knows that the Democrat leadership and the establishment media will cover for her. “Dem Rep: I’ve Never Felt More Palestinian Than I Do in Congress,” NTK Network, April 17, […]
