Has Vatican newspaper converted to Islam? By Robert Spencer on May 09, 2015 09:37 pm
The Vatican daily L’Osservatore Romano ran a piece with the subtitle, “Shooting in Texas at an exhibition of blasphemous cartoons.” Blasphemous? They’re blasphemous according to Islamic law, because Islam asserts that Muhammad is a prophet. So is the Vatican now submitting to Islamic law? Merriam-Webster defines “blasphemy” as “great disrespect shown to God or to […] Read in browser »
MSNBC’s Chris Hayes & Hamas-linked CAIR rep agree Pamela Geller is “odious” By Robert Spencer on May 09, 2015 08:49 pm
Hayes is winning kudos on the Right for this, because he defended Pamela Geller’s freedom of speech. The Left has become so authoritarian that a Leftist defending the freedom of speech is a spectacle, like a monkey riding a bicycle. But he and his guests, the contemptible Michael Moynihan of the Daily Beast and the […] Read in browser »
Media shares same goal as jihadis: they want to silence Pamela Geller By Robert Spencer on May 09, 2015 08:26 pm
“The media ‘narrative’ of the last week is that some Zionist temptress was walking down the street in Garland in a too short skirt and hoisted it to reveal her Mohammed thong – oops, my apologies, her Prophet Mohammed thong (PBUH) – and thereby inflamed two otherwise law-abiding ISIS supporters peacefully minding their own business.” […] Read in browser »
Pamela Geller’s critics are proving her point By Robert Spencer on May 09, 2015 07:44 pm
“The fury against Pamela Geller is motivated mostly by fear — by the understanding that there are indeed many, many Muslims who believe that blasphemy should be punished with death, and who put that belief into practice.” The proper response to them is not surrender and submission. “Pamela Geller’s Critics Are Proving Her Point,” by […] Read in browser »
“Victims of aggression are not to blame for their attackers’ aggression” By Robert Spencer on May 09, 2015 06:12 pm
As the freedom of speech is being tossed aside wholesale in the media’s distaste for Pamela Geller and the unwelcome truths she tells, a few voices realize what is at stake in this controversy. Here is another: “Geller and her colleagues aren’t the only victims that America’s elites refuse to side with against aggressors,” by […] Read in browser »
There’s a war on free speech — and the jihadis are winning By Robert Spencer on May 09, 2015 05:56 pm
Another good piece about how eagerly America’s political and cultural elites are accepting the principle that in the face of violent intimidation, one should give those who are doing the intimidating everything they want. “There’s a war on free speech — and radical Islam is winning,” by Philip Klein, Washington Examiner, May 8, 2015: Warnings […] Read in browser »
Tucker Carlson: Jihadists have “already won” By Robert Spencer on May 09, 2015 05:28 pm
Tucker Carlson is way off base when he says that Pamela Geller “sets out to infuriate people.” What she does is tell truths that others fear to tell, and that infuriates the moneyed and powerful Leftist and Islamic supremacist elites. But his little avowals that he is not off the PC reservation concerning Geller aside, […] Read in browser »
Cartoon jihadi’s stepmother: “I’m not saying what he did was right or wrong” By Robert Spencer on May 09, 2015 04:33 pm
Yes, trying to commit mass murder of people watching a cartoon show — is that right or wrong? That’s a real head-scratcher, a moral puzzle that would overtax the keenest ethical minds. “Overland Park man is shocked at news of son’s involvement in Garland, Texas, assault,” by Eric Adler, Kansas City Star, May 5, 2015 […] Read in browser »
Cartoon jihadis’ mosque previously spawned two other terrorists By Robert Spencer on May 09, 2015 03:55 pm
The place should be investigated, and what is taught there should be closely scrutinized. Instead, the FBI is probably gearing up to hold an “outreach” program there. “Phoenix Mosque Attended by Garland Jihadists Previously Spawned Two Other Terrorists,” by Patrick Poole, PJ Media, May 8, 2015: Yesterday at PJ Media, I reported on conflicting stories offered […] Read in browser »
Jihadi who attacked AFDI/JW Muhammad cartoon contest had attempted to go to Syria to join the Islamic State By Robert Spencer on May 09, 2015 09:19 am
It bears repeating: nary a mosque nor Islamic school in the United States has a single program to teach young Muslims or converts to Islam why they should reject the understanding of Islam presented by the Islamic State. They claim to reject it, but they do nothing to stop its recruitment of Muslims in the […] Read in browser »
