JIHAD WATCH 02/23/2020

Georgetown’s Hamas-linked Bridge Initiative hosts prof who says US war on terror is a manifestation of Islamophobia See? It’s as I’ve been pointing out for years: for the Hamas-linked Bridge Initiative, a program of the bought-and-paid-for Georgetown University, and for establishment academics such as Nazia Kazi, no resistance to the global jihad whatsoever is allowed, no matter how tepid, half-hearted, or fantasy-based. It’s all “Islamophobia.” “Islamophobia Permeates Foreign Policy, Speaker Says,” by […] Read more 2020-02-22  •  Robert Spencer UK textbook: “How could it be argued that the creation of Israel was a long-term cause of the 9/11 attacks?” Page 241 of UK KS3 textbook published by @HodderSchools How could it be argued that the creation of Israel was a long term cause of the 9/11 attacks This is 'Israel is the cause of all the wars in the ME conspiracy poppycock.

Korkmaz says “The Jews and the Christians will never approve of you until you follow their religion!” That’s Qur’an 2:120. Korkmaz also says: “We cannot love them. We love Muslims, for Allah says that only the believers are friends of one another. Allah says that […] Read more 2020-02-22  •  Robert Spencer UK: Woman converts to Islam, plots jihad bombing of St. Paul’s Cathedral, says “I want to kill a lot” Cue the BBC’s latest report on “Islamophobia.” Authorities have shown again and again and again that they have no interest whatsoever in the all-too-frequently recurring phenomenon of converts to Islam turning to treason and mass murder. This article shows yet again how foolish and short-sighted they are: “Shaikh converted to Islam in 2007 after being […] Read more 2020-02-22  •  Robert Spencer Egypt: Popular music genre Mahraganat “more dangerous than coronavirus,” says parliament spokesman “This type of music is based on promiscuous and immoral lyrics, which is completely prohibited, and as such the door is closed on it.” There may be more to this as well. Whenever I note that Islamic law forbids music (aside from nasheeds, a cappella songs encouraging jihad), I am excoriated as a greasy Islamophobe, […] Read more 2020-02-22  •  Robert Spencer Germany: 17-year-old Muslim migrant threatens passersby with a hatchet Here is the latest from Merkel’s New Germany, which you are “racist” and “neo-Nazi” if you don’t consider a paradise of multiculturalism. “POL-Pforzheim: (Pforzheim) Pforzheim – 17-year-old threatens passersby with a hatchet,” translated from “POL-Pforzheim: (Pforzheim) Pforzheim – 17-Jähriger bedroht Passanten mit Beil,” Presse Portal, February 17, 2020 (thanks to Medforth Blog): With a hatchet […] Read more 2020-02-22  •  Robert Spencer Qassem Suleimani: Martyr in Heaven or Murderer in Hell? No one outside of Iran and its proxy Shi’ite terror wings has had anything good to say about Suleimani — even China, Russia, EU hard lefties, and leaders of the Sunni Muslim world have been noticeably silent, or in the case of many Sunnis, have openly celebrated his removal from this world. Even U.S. Democratic […] Read more 2020-02-22  •  Mateen Elass Bernie Sanders On Iran and Saudi Arabia: “They’re Gonna Have to Get Their Act Together” Bernie Sanders believes that for too long America has been “just pro-Israel”; he appears not to know of the many episodes when America was not in Israel’s camp, from President Eisenhower threatening in 1956 to cut aid to Israel unless it withdrew – it did – from the Sinai, to Carter and Brzezinski cruelly bullying […] Read more 2020-02-22  •  Hugh Fitzgerald Will Christians Disappear Entirely From the Middle East? The Muslims long ago promised to drive out the Christians, and they are now fulfilling that pledge, except in one place. The Middle East of the 21st century is quickly becoming monolithic, as it sheds the religious and cultural diversity that once existed. Though it gave the world all three Abrahamic religions, it is rapidly […] Read more 2020-02-22  •  Rami Dabbas Malaysia: Islamic authorities say minimum age for marriage can’t be enforced as it is not specified in Islam Child marriage is sanctioned in Islam. Islamic tradition records that Muhammad consummated his marriage with (i.e., raped) Aisha when she was nine, and the resultant fact that child marriage is accepted in wide swaths of the Islamic world. Child marriage has abundant attestation in Islamic tradition and law. Turkey’s directorate of religious affairs (Diyanet) said […] Read more 2020-02-22  •  Robert Spencer
