This story epitomizes how hysterical and thoughtless the public discourse is nowadays. Trump is presented by the late Bob Bennett and the Daily Beast as an “Islamophobe” — someone with an irrational hatred of or fear of Islam and Muslims. In reality, he hasn’t said anything about Islam at all except that clearly there is […]

Hugh Fitzgerald: Pope Francis: Islam and Christianity Share “the Idea of Conquest”
Pope Francis continues to astonish. He has just said, in an interview with the French Catholic paper La Croix, that “the idea of conquest is inherent to the soul of Islam.” As far as his understanding of Islam goes, this is a marked improvement over his disturbing statement, back in November 2013, that the “Koran […]
EgyptAir jet crash a “brutal event” and “almost certainly a terror attack”
If it was “almost certainly a terror attack,” then it was almost certainly jihad. The IRA and the Tamil Tigers and American “right-wing extremists” aren’t taking down too many EgyptAir planes. “EgyptAir jet went into a ‘sharp spin’ and fell 22,000ft before vanishing from radar says Greek defence minister – as air safety chief says […]
Dubai law firm offers job to Obama so he can learn more about tolerance of Islam
Eisa Bin Haidar clearly doesn’t know his man. He says: “A faction of the American and western media has constantly profiled Islam as a religion of terror and categorised Muslims as terrorists. Well that is absolutely not true. Islam is a religion of tolerance, understanding, forgiveness and acceptance … it is not a religion of […]
UK: Muslima who plotted Islamic State jihad mass murder on 10th anniversary of 7/7 has sentence reduced
The magnanimity and kindness of the kuffar will move Sana Khan to become a loyal British subject once she is released, won’t it? Won’t it? Probably not, actually. The Qur’an tells Muslims to wage war against and subjugate unbelievers (9:29), and doesn’t make an exception from those who are kind and merciful to Muslims. “Woman […]
Congressman: photo of Islamic State caliph al-Baghdadi “eating a ham sandwich” would “undermine ISIS”
“We have a State Department with people who think that you can show the evil of al-Baghdadi if you can show him personally executing a defenseless Yazidi. We need people who understand that if you can just get a picture of him eating a ham sandwich, that would undermine ISIS and its recruiting ability.” As […]
UK: Muslim McDonalds worker planned jihad mass murder attack at Heathrow Airport
“The court documents also claim Pham was told to maximise the carnage by coating the bomb with metal bolts and cause as many casualties as possible.” To show how much he loved Allah and Muhammad! “Former London McDonalds worker plotted suicide terror attack at Heathrow Airport, court hears,” by Amita Joshi, GetWestLondon, May 16, 2016: […]
Pope Francis: ‘Idea of conquest is inherent to the soul of Islam,’ but says one can see Christianity that way, too
A few years ago the Pope wrote that Islam and the Qur’an rejected all forms of violence. Now he is contradicting himself. “The Pope went on, however, to acknowledge that the ‘idea of conquest is inherent to the soul of Islam,’ while immediately adding that ‘one could also interpret the end of Saint Matthew’s gospel, […]
Video: Robert Spencer on Hamas-linked CAIR’s opposition to counter-terror efforts
In this new video, I explain how the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) opposes counter-terror efforts, and details how numerous Hamas-linked CAIR officials have been convicted of jihad terror activity.
Iranian missile force commander: “The Americans are telling [us]: if you conduct a test or maneuver, don’t mention it”
Obama appears intent on covering up just how damaging his Iran nuclear deal really is, and how brazenly the Iranians are flouting even its toothless provisions. “IRGC Aerospace And Missile Force Commander: The Americans Are Telling Us ‘Don’t Talk About Missile Affairs, And If You Conduct A Test… Don’t Mention It,’” MEMRI, May 14, 2016: […]
