Jihad Watch reader Daniel has alerted me to the fact that Justin Raimondo, who accused a whole contingent of freedom fighters, including Pamela Geller and me, of responsibility for the murder of Shaima Alawadi, has apologized. I have no respect for Raimondo’s complacency regarding jihad and Islamic supremacism, and find offensive and absurd his labeling […]

Afghanistan: Woman in burqa murders 10 in jihad/martyrdom bombing
Claiming the promise of Paradise offered to those who “kill and are killed” for Allah (Qur’an 9:111) “Woman in burqa and two accomplices kill 10 in suicide attack in Afghanistan following police chase in rush hour,” by Eddie Wrenn for the Daily Mail, April 10 (thanks to David): A suicide bomber led police on a […]
Philippines: Muslims wound 22 with jihad bomb
Pamela Geller points out that “the jihadists get rewarded for this relentless violence and murder. The Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has been granted “observer status” in the talks between the Philippine government and the jihadist Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF). Muslim terrorists slaughter and the OIC (Organization of Islamic Cooperation) “mediates.” The Philippines (former […]
Palestinian Authority minister: Palestinians should unite to focus on the destruction of Israel
The “Palestinians” use this kind of genocidal rhetoric consistently, yet the world just as consistently ignores it and assumes that if they’re given a state, they will not use it as a jihad base to press forward toward the total destruction of Israel, but will instead live in peace with the Israelis. That fantasy-based policymaking […]
Sharia misunderstood in Aceh: Alcohol banned, women forbidden to wear tight trousers, debate raging over whether adulterers should be flogged or stoned to death
Imam Faisal Abdul Rauf of Ground Zero Mosque fame assures us that Sharia and the U.S. Constitution are fully compatible. Yet everywhere Sharia is implemented, we see the same things: stonings, amputations, oppression of women, terrorizing of non-Muslims. And so here we go again: “Aceh goes to the polls under the austere shadow of sharia,” […]
Robert Spencer: Framing Geller and Spencer For Murder
Over at Atlas Shrugs I discuss the Islamic supremacists’ persistent attempts to demonize and marginalize freedom fighters by claiming that our defense of human rights leads to violence: Shaima Alawadi, murdered in her home, and for awhile, it was the fault of Pamela Geller and me. A hijab-wearing mother, in death Alawadi quickly became much […]
Turkey unleashes koulori jihad
Hands off the koulori, Ozdemir “The pretzel was widely known before Christ, and became popular in Constantinople (now Istanbul) and Thessaloniki (now part of Greece) in Byzantine times” — that is, long before any Turks got to the area. Cultural Appropriations Update: Claiming Shakespeare, Abraham Lincoln and Leonardo DaVinci as Muslims is one thing, but […]
Egypt-Israel pipeline sabotaged again
“This is the 14th sabotage since the beginning of the revolt that toppled Hosni Mubarak.” You’d almost get the idea that someone in Egypt doesn’t want the Israelis to have gas. Naaah, that couldn’t possibly be true of the shiny new Arab Spring democracy, now, could it? “Egypt-Israel pipeline sabotaged again,” from AGI, April 9 […]
Philadelphia: Police hunt niqab-wearing bank robbers
Here is still more reason why Western countries should take off the multiculturalist straitjacket and ban the burqa and niqab. “Philadelphia Police, FBI Searching For Serial Robbers,” from CBS Philly, April 6 (thanks to Maxwell): PHILADELPHIA (CBS) “” The Philadelphia Police Department and the FBI are seeking the public’s help in identifying the suspects connected […]
Robert Spencer: Juan Cole is as ignorant of Catholicism as he is of Islam
In “Juan Cole and Ivory Tower Anti-Catholicism” in Crisis Magazine today, I discuss the Leftist propagandist and pseudo-scholar Juan Cole’s howling ignorance of Catholicism, and his similar abysmal willful blindness regarding Islam: Hand-in-hand with the Hollywood portrayals of Catholic priests and devout believers as evil, stupid, cruel, or unhinged is the academic Left’s long-established hostility […]
