Main U.S.-backed Syrian rebel group disbanding, joining jihadists
MARCH 5, 2015 10:01 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER1 COMMENT
“Charles Lister, an analyst with U.S, [sic] think tank Brookings, described in a tweet the implosion of the group as ‘absolutely remarkable.’” Brookings is a Qatar-funded institution that consistently downplays, denies, and obfuscates the reality of the global jihad threat. This development is only “remarkable” to anyone who was credulous enough to believe that these […]
New York City public schools to have Muslim holidays off
MARCH 5, 2015 8:55 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER7 COMMENTS
Hindus, Buddhists, Sikhs, Jains, etc. should consider flying planes into a couple of New York skyscrapers; then they’ll get their holidays off, too. Because one thing is certain: if Islamic jihadists hadn’t perpetrated the 9/11 attacks, Muslims wouldn’t be getting their holidays onto the school calendar now. Ever since 9/11, Islamic supremacist advocacy groups have […]
California Muslim charged with trying to join the Islamic State
MARCH 5, 2015 8:17 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER2 COMMENTS
The stream of Muslims from the West to the Islamic State continues, with over 20,000 foreign jihadis waging jihad there now. Time for a new round of articles telling us that the Islamic State is un-Islamic, while never dealing with the Islamic teachings that actually lead young Muslims to join the group. That’ll fix this […]

Boston Marathon jihad trial: defense attorney admits “It was him”
MARCH 5, 2015 9:23 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER4 COMMENTS
“Tsarnaev sat silently as his attorney Judy Clarke told the jury she wouldn’t even try to argue that her 21-year-old client wasn’t involved in the bombings. ‘It was him,’ Clarke said.” Will that stop the appalling “Free Jahar” protests? Probably not. “In Boston Marathon bombing courtroom, gruesome testimony and dread at what is to come,” […]
Canada: Police arrest three Muslims over mall threat
MARCH 5, 2015 8:33 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER6 COMMENTS
The AFP story, of course, doesn’t identify those arrested in any way, but since it mentions both the al-Qaeda and the al-Shabaab threat to malls, it is fairly clear that those arrested were Islamic jihadists. In this enlightened age, the mainstream media doesn’t give the public information that it thinks the public wouldn’t be able […]
UK: Muslims arrested for conning elderly into funding jihadis’ trips to Syria
MARCH 4, 2015 8:06 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER22 COMMENTS
“The victims are told their bank account has been compromised and are then tricked into transferring money. One elderly victim lost around £150,000, police said.” And the money goes to the jihad. British officials better conduct more “outreach” to Muslim communities, and ban more counter-jihadis, to keep this sort of thing from happening. “Terrorism officers […]

“Pham was arrested at Heathrow International Airport when he returned in July 2011 from a six-month trip to Yemen, where prosecutors say he pledged his support to high-level members of al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula and vowed to fight jihad. They say he told his wife before leaving their United Kingdom home that he was […]
