Jihadis who planned to attack newspaper that published Motoons had links with jihad network in Britain
The jihad network is international and found in every Western country.

This was […]
“There is no society that has received large numbers of Muslims that has not soon been confronted by an Islamic defiance of existing societal norms”
How many Muslim immigrants should the West admit? As I argued in Stealth Jihad in 2008, no more — because the more who come, the more demands there will be for accommodation of Sharia provisions in the West.

Muslim World League declares jihad against cinematic depictions of Muhammad
I don’t know what they’re talking about. What cinematic depictions of Muhammad? For years I’ve tried to interest filmmakers in a movie version of my book The Truth About Muhammad.
