Islamic “charities” that are “misinterpreting Islam” giving Taliban $200 million a year
That’s a lot of misinterpretation. But actually, there is no misunderstanding of Islam going on here at all. In Islam, zakat — the alms required of every Muslim — can and should be given to further the jihad. So it shouldn’t surprise anyone that there are so many jihad charities. “Terror funds linked to shady […]

Syria: Muslim lovers of death celebrate “marriage” of three “martyrs” with “virgins of Paradise”
This is a funeral in a mosque in Syria, but as Carl in Jerusalem notes, “this looks a lot more like a party than like a funeral.” This is because Islamic supremacists avowedly and proudly love death.

These sanctions are working great: Iran-Turkey trade hits $20 billion in 10 months
It’s OK: the Obama Administration has extended waivers on Iran sanctions to Turkey. And to China. But if Obama is handing out waivers left and right, and “allies” of the U.S. are doing $2 billion in trade each month with Iran, what is the point or the power of the sanctions? “Iran-Turkey trade hits $20 […]
Robert Spencer: Morsi’s Tactical Retreat
In “Morsi’s Tactical Retreat” in FrontPage this morning, I discuss why Morsi hasn’t really given up his dictatorial aspirations: All the pundits whose credibility was on the line for their uncritical hailing of the “Arab Spring” uprisings can breathe a sigh of relief: Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood President Mohammed Morsi has, according to Fox News, “agreed to […]
