UK jihadi: “O by the way Islamic State does have a Dirty bomb”
NOVEMBER 30, 2014 8:46 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER10 COMMENTS
This may be true, but it may simply be an attempt to “strike terror into the hearts of the enemies of Allah,” as the Qur’an directs Muslims to do (8:60). “Islamic State has a dirty bomb says British jihadi amid claims 40kg of uranium was taken from Iraqi university,” by Jennifer Smith, Daily Mail, November […]
Minnesota imam refuses to denounce the Islamic State
NOVEMBER 30, 2014 5:32 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER16 COMMENTS
It’s “complicated.” Beheading hostages, crucifying enemies, terrorizing Christians, selling Yazidi and Christian women as sex slaves — it’s “confusing.” “Minnesota imam looks at ‘caliphate’ through Islamic lens,” by Ibrahim Hirsi, MinnPost, November 28, 2014 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): Any time a militant organization rises with violent acts in the name of Islam, some […]

NOVEMBER 29, 2014 2:44 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER15 COMMENTS
“Talb, the brother of the girl, was enraged after the local panchayat did not pass any adverse judgement Friday against the marriage of the boy (Hindu) and girl (Muslim) in a court two months back.” Islamic law forbids Muslim women to marry non-Muslim men. The honor of Talb’s family had to be cleansed. “Couple killed […]
Muslim scholar: Jihadis are fighting Jews, “kings of gold, sex and the media”

“You will surely find the most intense of the people in animosity toward the believers to be the Jews…” (Qur’an 5:82). In practice, this generally means that the most intense of the people in animosity toward the Jews are Muslims. “Syrian Islamist Scholar Muaz Al-Safouk: Only the Jihadi Movements Can Break the Backs of the […]
Turkey’s science minister: Muslims discovered the earth is round
NOVEMBER 29, 2014 11:09 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER93 COMMENTS
All this endless chest-thumping about Muslims having discovered this and invented that doesn’t really establish what it is intended to establish: that Islam makes for a great civilization. All it does is beg the question of why, if Muslims accomplished all this, they didn’t do anything with it. Muslims discovered the earth was round, and […]

Note what he says about how one civilization or the other will prevail. “Kuwaiti Cleric Tareq Al-Suwaidan: Our Struggle with the Sons of Zion Pertains to Our Very Existence, Requires Jihad,” MEMRI, October 31, 2014.
UK: School playground evacuated because of “aggressive” squirrel
NOVEMBER 29, 2014 3:01 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER112 COMMENTS
This story has nothing whatsoever to do with jihad. But it is emblematic of the abject weakness of contemporary Britain. If the Brits cower before a squirrel, even an “unusually aggressive” one, how do you think they will stand up against Islamic jihadists and supremacists — especially “unusually aggressive” ones? That’s right: they won’t. They […]
China: Islamic jihadists murder 15 in Xinjiang
NOVEMBER 29, 2014 1:10 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER19 COMMENTS
Notice how this AP report repeats the Uighur versions of events uncritically. They’re on the side of the jihadists, so they must be right — as far as the mainstream media is concerned. The mainstream media rejects in principle the idea that jihad against unbelievers is taught in the Qur’an and Sunnah, and so when […]
Islamic State attacks Kobani from Turkey
NOVEMBER 29, 2014 11:20 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER29 COMMENTS
“It is now clear that Turkey is openly cooperating with Daesh.” Turkey, meanwhile, won’t allow the U.S. to use its territory to fight against the Islamic State. The old Cold War web of alliances is badly outdated. Rapidly re-Islamizing Turkey is no friend of the United States. Turkey wants to take advantage of the chaos […]
UK: Teachers “scared to teach about Jesus” for fear of offending Muslims
NOVEMBER 29, 2014 10:26 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER49 COMMENTS
This article speaks only of the fear of offending “those of other faiths,” but when Bolton starts talking about how Christianity must be taught so as to aid the integration of new immigrants, it is clear that he is talking about Muslims, as no one is worried about the low rate of “integration” of any […]
