This is all part of Turkey’s abandonment of secularism (exemplified by the conversion of Hagia Sophia from a museum to a mosque) and embrace of Islamization.

World Israel News noted recently that when UNRWA was established, it offered aid only to “the original refugees who had […] Read more 2020-08-17  •  Robert Spencer Federal agents trick Hamas into sending Bitcoin to US government “The Prophet said, ‘War is deceit.’” (Bukhari 4.52.269) And that works both ways. “Federal agents tricked Hamas into sending Bitcoin to Uncle Sam,” by Jeff John Roberts, Fortune, August 13, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): …On Thursday the Justice Department revealed details of the sting, which was part of a sprawling investigation into […] Read more 2020-08-17  •  Robert Spencer Turkey accused of giving citizenship to Hamas members planning jihad terror attacks The Turkish government has denied this, but given Turkey’s stance toward Israel and Erdogan’s increasingly obvious affinity for political Islam and desire to restore the Ottoman caliphate, there is nothing implausible about it. “Turkey gave citizenship to Hamas members planning terror attacks – report,” by Cody Levine, Jerusalem Post, August 15, 2020 (thanks to M.): […] Read more 2020-08-17  •  Robert Spencer
