LA Times: Muslims in France fear reprisals after Paris jihad massacre
By Robert Spencer on Nov 15, 2015 10:27 pm
This is always the mainstream media preoccupation after a jihad attack: portraying Muslims as victims of a generally nonexistent “backlash.” There is always a steady stream of articles like this one after every fresh jihad murder, and never, ever any articles about Muslim communities redoubling their efforts to show themselves to be loyal citizens and […]

Belgian government lacks control over neighborhood linked to Paris jihad attacks
By Robert Spencer on Nov 15, 2015 09:58 pm
What? Don’t only racist, bigoted Islamophobes believe in the existence of no-go zones? Isn’t that what the Times was telling us at the beginning of the year? “Belgian Minister Says Government Lacks Control Over Neighborhood Linked to Terror Plots,” New York Times, November 15, 2015: Belgium’s home affairs minister said that the government does not […]

Relax: it was a paperwork issue.

Minnesota state representative candidate: “ISIS isn’t necessarily evil”
By Robert Spencer on Nov 15, 2015 05:45 pm
Dan Kimmel has withdrawn from the race, and for that we can be grateful, but his statement, with all of its moral equivalence and toleration of evil, is a succinct expression of what hamstrings our ability to face the Islamic State and defeat it. This is why the Islamic State will be plaguing free people […]

In the wake of the Paris jihad attacks, France says it’s “essential” to combat…climate change
By Robert Spencer on Nov 15, 2015 05:25 pm
Good they have their priorities straight. Also, it’s much easier to combat a politically correct fiction than a large and looming reality that no one wants to confront. Maybe Bernie Sanders could become President of France. “France Says It’s ‘Essential’ To Fight Global Warming In Wake Of Paris Terror Attacks,” by Michael Bastasch, Daily Caller, […]

Bernie Sanders: “Climate change is directly related to the growth of terrorism”
By Robert Spencer on Nov 15, 2015 04:48 pm
“I would argue that the disastrous invasion of Iraq, something that I strongly opposed, has unraveled the region completely and led to the rise of Al Qaeda and to ISIS.” That is true. However, it contradicts Sanders’ other claim, that climate change, that is, “limited amounts of water, limited amounts of land to grow their […]

FBI top dog won’t release motive in Chattanooga jihad shootings: “We don’t want to smear people”
By Robert Spencer on Nov 15, 2015 04:23 pm
“We’re still trying to make sure we understand Abdulazeez, his motivations and associations, in a really good way…Sometimes the way we investigate requires us to keep information secret. That’s a good thing. We don’t want to smear people.” Abdulazeez’s motivations aren’t really in doubt. He viewed material by jihad leader Anwar Awlaki online, and spoke […]

Main target in Paris jihad attack: Jewish-owned Bataclan Theater, frequent target of Muslims and BDS groups
By Robert Spencer on Nov 15, 2015 03:41 pm
As Pamela Geller points out here, the jihadi mass murderers in Mumbai in 2008 also went out of their way to target Jews, making a Chabad House in the city a principal site for their jihad. The Qur’an designates Jews the worst enemies of the Muslims (5:82), and this manifests itself in a burning hatred […]

After Paris jihad massacre, Lindsey Graham wants to double funding for Syrian “refugees” and bring even more to U.S.
By Robert Spencer on Nov 15, 2015 03:30 pm
The time for this suicidal idiocy is long past. Graham is a presidential candidate? He ought to be laughed off the presidential debate stage, made to resign from the Senate, and barred from ever holding public office again. And if he succeeds in expanding the “refugee” program, he ought to be made to house the […]

U.S. Embassy in Paris turned away Americans who sought shelter there during jihad attacks
By Robert Spencer on Nov 15, 2015 02:47 pm
“They decided to walk two miles to the U.S. Embassy, hoping they could take shelter there. But, her husband said, they were turned away.” Why? Would letting them in have been tantamount to admitting that there is a jihad threat? “Passengers arrive at Atlanta airport safely after Paris ordeal,” by Carrie Teegardin, Atlanta Journal-Constitution, November […]

NATO top dog on Paris jihad massacre: “This is not a fight between the Islamic world and the western world”
By Robert Spencer on Nov 15, 2015 09:00 am
It is, actually, but only one side is fighting. After the Paris jihad attacks, the Islamic State issued a statement claiming responsibility for them, and warning: “Let France and all nations following its path know that they will continue to be at the top of the target list for the Islamic State and that the […]
