Jihad chic: Biopic about Israeli attorney for accused “Palestinian” jihad terrorists shortlisted for Oscar
By Robert Spencer on Dec 18, 2019 05:00 pm

1. If Lea Tsemel defended “white supremacists” or “right-wing extremists,” would an adoring biopic of her be shortlisted for an Oscar? Right. 2. Israel is a country that respects human rights. As detestable as the idea of defending jihadis may be, they’re entitled to representation. How many lawyers in Muslim countries would defend a Jew […]

Pope’s annual meal for the poor features no pork or wine to avoid offending Muslims
By Robert Spencer on Dec 18, 2019 03:00 pm

When will this gesture be reciprocated? Never. “Interfaith dialogue” is not conducted in search of genuine religious rapprochement. It is designed simply to make Christians feel good about how Christlike and non-bigoted they are (in their own view), while the Muslims can go away satisfied that the Christians are again submitting to them. The principle […]

By Robert Spencer on Dec 18, 2019 12:00 pm

“If you are a Christian in Iran and do not evangelize, and do not advertise your religion, you will not go to jail. Christians that do go to jail in Iran are converts or evangelizing.” This is in accord with Islamic law, which forbids non-Muslims to proselytize. “Iran arrests evangelical Christians before Christmas holiday,” by […]

UK: some media claiming Muslims are leaving the UK after Boris Johnson landslide win
By Christine Douglass-Williams on Dec 18, 2019 09:00 am

“British Muslims have ‘begun to leave the UK after Boris Johnson won the election’ according to the alarmist headlines of a journalist writing for a major newspaper — without offering hard evidence of the assertion.” This was an embellishment by an activist journalist, like many others. In truth: “the article only actually mentions discussions between […]

Sudan announces it will close offices of Hamas and Hizballah to get U.S. sanctions lifted
By Christine Douglass-Williams on Dec 18, 2019 08:00 am

The Trump administration has been confronting jihad terror activity by pulling funding from Pakistan and the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), as well as by pulling out of the Iran deal and controlling immigration from countries of concern.
