AFDI/SIOA 9/11 Freedom Rally: Stand Against Ground Zero Mosque and Durban III, Stand for America
While clergy and first responders are barred from the official ceremonies, both are welcome at the 9/11 Freedom Rally. And while White House guidelines forbid official 9/11 ceremonies from mentioning who attacked the U.S. on that day or why, the 9/11 Freedom Rally features more honest speakers. Free citizens are coming from all over the […]
20% of Muslims in U.S. admit knowing of support for jihadists within Muslim community
Yikes! Hamas-linked CAIR and other Islamic supremacist groups constantly tell us that there is no support for jihadists, absolutely none, among Muslims in the U.S. So how could this be? Surely Hamas-linked CAIR and the others aren’t…lying, are they? And why aren’t these twenty percent turning in the “extremists” to law enforcement? Oh yeah: CAIR-California […]
Spencer speaks to Qur’an study group
Yesterday evening I spent an enjoyable hour taking questions from a Qur’an study group, and the estimable Amy Peikoff recorded the whole thing for posterity. Many thanks to all who submitted questions. You can find the whole thing at Amy’s blog here.
“It’s clear, this all happened because we’re Muslim”: Muslims claim police used excessive force in Playland Park riot
Predictably, Muslims are claiming victim status over the riot they provoked at Rye Playland yesterday. Their claims might have more credibility if they didn’t always claim to be innocent victims of “Islamophobia” in any and every conflict with the filthy kuffar. “Muslims, police scuffle at Rye Playland over amusement park”s head scarf ban; 15 arrests […]
Geller: Father and son jihadists
In “Father and son jihadists” in World Net Daily, August 30, Pamela Geller discusses Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the Christmas underwear bomber, and his rejection of American law for Islamic law — as well as the little-noted Sharia activities of his “moderate” father in Nigeria: Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the Christmas underwear bomber, is back in the […]
Pakistan: Misunderstander of Sunni Islam murders eleven Shi’ites outside mosque
This suicide attacker must have been reading Islamophobic literature misrepresenting his peaceful religion. Sunni/Shi’ite Jihad Update. “Suicide bombing near Pakistani mosque kills 11,” from Deutsche Presse Agentur, August 31 (thanks to Twostellas): Islamabad – A car suicide bombing on Wednesday killed at least 11 people and injured 21 in south-west Pakistan, police said. The attack […]
Mufti of the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan misunderstands Islam, calls on Pakistanis in mosques and madrassas to wage jihad against government
Abu Zar, who has dedicated his life to the study of Islam, somehow succumbs to Islamophobia misrepresentations of his peaceful religion, and calls on Pakistanis in mosques and madrassas not to wage interior spiritual jihad, but armed jihad against the Pakistani government. How very strange. How did greasy Islamophobes get so much influence over Abu […]
Germany: Muslim who murdered 2 U.S. troops admits to crime, claims he was “radicalized” by faked “rape” video that was actually movie footage
Smiling no more Now, according to a BBC report, he says, “Today I can’t understand myself how I could have acted this way.” If one believes his story, he’s not only a murderer, but a gullible idiot. However, prior coverage found him in “radical” company on Facebook, and he said he wanted to “do [his] […]
Nigerian authorities say mastermind of U.N. bombing was Boko Haram member who just returned from Somalia, has links to al-Qaeda
More on this story. Once again, a “regional” jihad group supposedly driven by local grievances has apparently found common cause with groups geographically far removed from it. This is possible because they share the fundamental aim of imposing Sharia, the goal of jihad in all its forms. Think jihad globally, wage jihad locally. “Nigeria: Al-Qaida-Linked […]
Libya: Father slits throats of three daughters raped by Gadhafi’s troops
As we noted in a prior report on the risk of honor killings and rape in Libya, this is the population from which a tolerant, pluralistic civil society is supposed to spring forth now that it’s no longer hindered by a lone autocratic weirdo. A democracy is only as good as the values that inform […]
Surprise! Gadhafi daughter “killed” in 1986 airstrike may be alive and well
“War is deceit,” after all. And the evidence is mounting that a story used to inflame anti-American hatred and justify violence may be an elaborate work of fiction. “Daughter Gadhafi said was dead apparently lives,” by Hadeel al-Shalchi for the Associated Press, August 30: TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) “” Since the rebel takeover of Tripoli, evidence […]
Afghanistan: Karzai ordered leak of info that wrecked deal to release U.S. soldier captured by Taliban, angry at not being included in talks
More on this story. Reservations about negotiating with the Taliban are, of course, more than reasonable, but there is the principle of the matter in our “friend and ally” Karzai’s behavior. “Secret U.S.-Taliban talks were closing on deal to free kidnapped army sergeant before being scuppered by Karzai aides,” by Oliver Pickup for the Daily […]
New York: Fifteen Muslims arrested in riot over Playland Park safety rules
Where American law and practice conflict with Islamic law and practice, American law and practice have to give way. That is the way it always is. Otherwise, there will be violence. “Police arrest 15 at Playland in dispute over Muslim headwear,” by Rebecca Baker and Jonathan Bandler for LoHud.com, August 30 (thanks to all who […]
Chechnya: Misunderstanders of Islam murder seven in two bombings
“The first blast occurred when officers attempted to detain a suspected militant in the Chechen capital of Grozny.” See, if only the officers weren’t so “Islamophobic” as to interfere with the activities of the glorious mujahedin, none of this would have happened. Will the Islamophobia never end? “Russian report: 7 dead in 2 blasts in […]
Convert to Islam arrested with bomb-making guides and al-Qaeda propaganda; Spiegel says his “motivations remain a mystery”
Everyone knows that Islam is a Religion of Peaceâ„¢ and that only greasy Islamophobes pause from raking in the bucks long enough to suggest otherwise, so Abdul Hakiim’s conversion to Islam couldn’t have anything to do with his sudden interest in setting off bombs. This one is, a Pamela Geller says, “a real headscratcher”! “The […]
Jihadist garage sale of the century underway: Gaza groups reportedly buying Libyan weapons
While there continue to be concerns about Libya’s unconventional weapons and potential “dirty bomb” material, lighter conventional weapons are already reported to be on the market. And there also remains the possibility of a second “storefront” opening up upon the fall of the Assad regime. “‘Gaza militants have Libyan arms’,” from Reuters, August 29: Palestinians […]
Al-Qaeda bigwig and former Gitmo detainee tells Saudi prince to expel all non-Muslims from the kingdom
Never mind how that would paralyze the Saudi economy, dependent as it is on what often amounts to slave labor, as demonstrated by so many horror stories, and the denial of freedom of religion and worship to non-Muslim foreign workers. But what kind of intolerant person would demand the expulsion of other religions from his […]
Here is the Aga Khan/Rick Perry curriculum: Scrubbed from the web, cache scrubbed from Google Search
One of the oddest and most telling aspects of this Rick Perry/Aga Khan curriculum controversy is that when Pamela Geller and I started writing about the curriculum, it was scrubbed from the web. Now it has been scrubbed from the Google cache, as I noted here. This is highly suspicious, and gives the lie to […]
Israel on alert for another major attack after 10-man cell crosses from Gaza into Sinai
On alert for Islamic Jihad’s potential Ramadan finale. “Vilnai: 10-man terror cell planning attack from Sinai,” from the Jerusalem Post, August 30: A cell of more than 10 terrorists is currently in the Sinai with plans to carry out an attack against Israel along its border with Egypt, Home Front Defense Minister Matan Vinai said […]
