They target the military because they think they cooperate with the Americans, and the Shi’ites because they consider them heretics. Not that this has anything to do with Islam. This attack also shows the viciousness of the propaganda of Islamic supremacist spokesmen in the U.S. such as Ahmed Rehab of Hamas-linked CAIR and the oily […]

UK: Woman scarred for life when niqab-wearing attacker throws acid in her face
The police will never find the assailant, of course. Everyone who wears a niqab looks exactly the same as everyone else wearing a niqab. But when debate rages in France and elsewhere over whether it is “racist” to ban the niqab and burqa, this story demonstrates that to do so is a simple matter of […]
Sharia in the UK: Sharia divorces could be allowed under British law after legal ruling
This article is almost completely unhelpful in explaining exactly what Sharia divorce is. It does say that “men have the right of unilateral divorce under classical Sharia” and that a Sunni Muslim divorce is effective when the man tells his wife that he is divorcing her,” but otherwise the only information it provides is this: […]

Jews and the Crusades by Ibn Warraq Part 6 Part 1 / Part 2 / Part 3 / Part 4 / Part 5 “Their unpopularity grew throughout the eleventh century, as more classes of the community began to borrow money from them; and the beginnings of the Crusading movement added to it. It was expensive […]

Petition: the Diocese of Worcester should let Robert Spencer speak
Jihad Watch reader Bernie has kindly posted this petition and just sent it to me. I appreciate his putting it together. Indeed, this whole episode has turned into a major public relations disaster for the Leftists and Islamic supremacists; their authoritarian bullying is on full display. If I had given the talk in Worcester, Massachusetts […]
Robert Spencer on Egypt: Free People Not Going Quietly Into the Night
Over at FrontPage I discuss the ongoing demonstrations in Egypt, and the consistency that runs through Obama’s responses to all the uprisings we have seen in Muslim countries in recent years: Survey after survey, as well as the election results that put the Muslim Brotherhood’s Mohammed Morsi in the presidential palace, show that most Egyptians […]
Pakistani scientist says Islamic supremacists in military could give nukes to jihadists
No kidding, really? But Pakistan is our valued friend and ally! Just ask John Kerry! “Nukes could be hijacked by radicals: Pak scientist,” from PTI, February 1 (thanks to Lookmann): London: Increasing radicalisation within Pakistan’s military could lead to its nuclear weapons being hijacked by radical Islamists, a Pakistani scientist has warned. “Safety and security […]
#MyJihad in Pakistan: Sunni jihad-martyrdom suicide bomber detonates outside Shi’ite mosque, murdering 22 people
But remember: to examine and resist the bloodthirsty ideology that leads to these murders would be “Islamophobic.” The real problem is not these killings, but those bigoted, hate-mongering non-Muslims who dare to say that people should understand and fight against the spread of this murderous ideology. “Suicide Bomber Attacks Pakistani Mosque, 22 Dead,” from the […]
Diocese of Worcester canceled Robert Spencer talk at insistence of self-proclaimed “friend and supporter” of convicted jihad terrorist Tarek Mehanna
An organization called Americans for Peace and Tolerance (APT) does research on Islamic supremacists and what they describe as “false moderates” — mostly in New England, where they are based. Their president, Charles Jacobs, sent me information about Abdul Cader Asmal, who wrote a libelous and hysterical screed to the diocese of Worcester, Massachusetts demanding […]
