“Study” claims that the New York Times portrays Islam more negatively than cancer
By Robert Spencer on Mar 01, 2016 03:56 pm
This study is a classic example of how Leftists are out of touch with reality: “Headlines from recent NYT articles reinforce the report’s claims. Here are a few, from February 14-18: Sexual Misery and Islam; Iran’s Zarif Tells European Lawmakers Islamist Militancy Also Their Problem; Bangladesh Arrests Publisher for Books Said to Hurt Muslims; Trial […]

Baghdad: At least 14 murdered in jihad-martyrdom suicide bombing at funeral
By Robert Spencer on Mar 01, 2016 03:04 pm
“Local security officials say a senior local leader of Asaib Ahl al-Haq, a powerful Shiite militia, was killed in the attack in Muqdadiyah, about 90 kilometres north of the capital.” Which kills more people: “Islamophobia” or the Sunni-Shi’ite jihad? Yet which gets more government and media attention? “Suicide bombing at Iraqi funeral kills at least […]

Robert Spencer in PJ Media: ‘We’re All Muslims Deep Down,’ Says … Boston Police Commissioner
By Robert Spencer on Mar 01, 2016 02:44 pm
In PJ Media today I discuss how the Boston Police Commissioner has taken pandering to diazzying new heights. Also, don’t miss Hugh Fitzgerald’s take, here. Politicians insisting that the latest Islamic jihad attack has nothing to do with Islam have become a familiar feature of the mainstream media landscape, but last Saturday, Boston Police Commissioner […]

Ohio Muslims used fake credit card transactions to raise money for al-Qaeda leader al-Awlaki
By Robert Spencer on Mar 01, 2016 02:25 pm
Odd that al-Awlaki is not named in this AP story. Does the mainstream media’s avid desire to whitewash Islam now extend to the identity of al-Qaeda leaders? “Prosecutors say money in Ohio terrorism case went to al-Qaida leader,” Associated Press, March 1, 2016: TOLEDO, OHIO: The Latest on four men accused of raising money for […]

By Hugh Fitzgerald on Mar 01, 2016 12:57 pm
Last week it was announced that Simon and Schuster will publish a line of Muslim-themed books for children called Salaam Reads.

Pakistan: 100,000 attend funeral of killer of blasphemy laws foe
By Robert Spencer on Mar 01, 2016 12:31 pm
Relax: it’s just a tiny minority of 100,000 extremists, chanting, “Qadri, your blood will bring the revolution” and “The punishment for a blasphemer is beheading.” Clearly the blasphemy laws, which have destroyed the lives of so many Christians and others in Pakistan, are hugely popular. No one is concerned about the human rights violations they […]

German companies that run asylum seekers’ homes are making bumper profits
By Robert Spencer on Mar 01, 2016 12:19 pm
The “refugee” industry is a big business. “European Homecare’s revenue quadrupled between 2008 and 2013, while its profits doubled to 1.4 million euros in the year 2012 to 2013.” And that was before the latest Muslim migrant inundation. These companies are putting their profits ahead of the national interest, as is the U.S. Conference of […]

Obama DHS secretly scrubbed 1,000 names from U.S. terror watch lists
By Robert Spencer on Mar 01, 2016 11:36 am
“At least 1,000 names were scrubbed from the U.S. Terrorist Screening Database as part of an administration effort to protect the civil rights of suspected individuals.” What could possibly go wrong? Surely if any jihadis’ names were scrubbed from the list, they would be so grateful that their civil rights were being protected that they […]

By Robert Spencer on Mar 01, 2016 09:57 am
There are sessions like this one all over the country all the time: a kindly Muslim goes to a church and dispels the “misconceptions” about Islam held by the assembled Christians, explaining to them that contrary to appearances (which are fabricated by the “Islamophobic” mainstream media, doncha know), Islam is a religion of peace and […]

Denmark: Imam says adulterous women should be stoned to death, mosque openly supports the Islamic State
By Robert Spencer on Mar 01, 2016 07:55 am
“There have been numerous unsuccessful political attempts to close Grimhøj Mosque down…” Why were they unsuccessful? It should have been shut down long ago. As for the support for stoning, however, Danish authorities should not be surprised. Did they really expect that Muslims in Europe would voluntarily discard the elements of Islam that contradict European […]
