German pol calls for security review amid fear Islamic State has sent 100s of jihadis into country among migrants
By Robert Spencer on Jun 11, 2016 02:47 pm
These concerns are entirely justified. Ahmad al-Mohammed and one other of the jihadis who murdered 130 people in Paris in November 2015 had just entered Europe as refugees. In February 2015, the Islamic State boasted it would soon flood Europe with as many as 500,000 refugees. And the Lebanese Education Minister said in September 2015 […]

Pakistan’s former President asks the U.S. to “trust” Pakistan
By Robert Spencer on Jun 11, 2016 02:33 pm
As if, Zardari. Trust Pakistan? The Pakistan whose ISI spy service controlled Osama bin Laden’s Abbottabad compound? And that funded a deadly attack on a CIA compound in Afghanistan? And that planned jihad terror attacks on US and Israeli consulates in India? And that has aided the Taliban and the Haqqani network? Qur’an 3:28 warns […]

Qatar: Dutch woman arrested on suspicion of adultery after telling police she had been raped
By Robert Spencer on Jun 11, 2016 02:10 pm
In Islam the victim of rape is to blame, for she has tempted a man into raping her, instead of quieting his temptation by covering herself sufficiently. The fact that it was forced upon her makes no difference at all from the perspective of Islamic law. If this woman went to police with her rape […]

By Robert Spencer on Jun 11, 2016 10:41 am
Islamic State spokesman Abu Mohammad al-Adnani recently called on Muslims to “get prepared, be ready … to make it a month of calamity everywhere for nonbelievers…” For the Islamic State, those “nonbelievers” would include Shi’ites, whom they deride as “Rafidites,” rejectors, i.e., those who reject the caliphates of Abu Bakr, Umar and Uthman. “Syria: Bombings […]

Hugh Fitzgerald: Things Are Looking Up Down Under, Or, Sensitivity Training Follies
By Hugh Fitzgerald on Jun 11, 2016 10:08 am
An Australian researcher, Charles Miller, has just published a report on the effect of cultural sensitivity training, intended to improve attitudes toward Muslims among members of the Australian Defense Forces.

By Robert Spencer on Jun 11, 2016 06:34 am
“And frankly — and I’m not pointing the finger at anyone else, but if another country, we felt, were taking severe or draconian measures in the wake of some kind of attack, we might also comment.” So State Department spokesman Mark Toner would have us believe that only Israel takes severe and draconian measures after […]

Robert Spencer in PJ Media: The Non-PC Reason Iran Lies to Obama and the West
By Robert Spencer on Jun 11, 2016 06:04 am
Over at PJ Media I discuss Iran’s rationale for its ongoing and constant practice of deception: Newly declassified State Department cables revealed that, in January 1979, Ayatollah Khomeini sent a secret message to the Jimmy Carter White House. He promised that if Carter did not stand in the way of the mullahs taking power in […]

Liberation? Woman in town freed from Islamic State casts off niqab to reveal…hijab
By Robert Spencer on Jun 11, 2016 05:40 am
The niqab is the full face veil, leaving only the eyes uncovered. The hijab covers only the hair. Liberation from oppression? The ever-clueless MailOnline thinks so, but it isn’t. Just a lessening of the oppression. Both the niqab and the hijab are based on the same principle, that it is the woman’s responsibility to remove […]

By Christine Williams on Jun 11, 2016 05:00 am
Christians face extinction in the Middle East from Islamic terrorism while Israel faces an existential threat, also due to organized Islamic terrorism. Let’s also not forget the violent Islamic conquests that raged through and conquered vast regions of the Middle East in the 7th century, long before the Christian Crusades — which were wrong in […]

Reading the Qur’an during Ramadan 7: Juz Wa Idha sami’u
By Robert Spencer on Jun 11, 2016 04:39 am
The Muslims will find that these Jews are their fiercest enemies, while those closest to them in affection will be the Christians (5:82). According to the Ma’alimut Tanzil, this verse doesn’t refer to all Christians, but only to those who accept Islam; this is made clear by verses 83 and 84, in which those Christians […]
