It has been noted many times here that Turkey did not oppose the Islamic State in any effective way, and indeed, actively aided it in many ways. It seemed clear that Erdogan was hoping to co-opt the Islamic State, use it against the Kurds and Assad, and incorporate its domains into his own revived caliphate. […]

Australia: Muslims plotted jihad massacres to “defeat all the infidels,” prosecutor says “Islam not on trial here”
Crown prosecutor Lincoln Crowley “said the acts planned by the men would have been ‘designed to demonstrate to the unbelievers the righteousness of their particular belief in Islam’, but added, ‘the religion of Islam is not on trial here.’” Of course it isn’t. The dogma that Islam teaches peace and that any Muslim who commits […]
Toronto: Muslim leaves suspicious packages at subway station on two successive days
“And prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may strike terror in the enemy of Allah and your enemy and others besides them whom you do not know, whom Allah knows.” (Qur’an 8:60) “Man arrested, Broadview station closed for second straight day after another suspicious […]
Man detained at border meets Muslims claiming to be “political refugees” yet openly supporting jihad terror groups
Michael Enright’s case is strange. It may be a case of government ingratitude and injustice; certainly Enright wouldn’t be the first victim of that. But it may just be that because he overstayed his visa previously, and because everyone entering from Mexico who has been in Syria is justly scrutinized, that he is caught up […]
Sen. Elizabeth Warren compares “white nationalism” to “ISIS and Al-Qaeda”
Democrat Senator Elizabeth Warren is now comparing “white nationalism to ISIS and Al-Qaeda” as equivalent threats to America. Yes, this is the same woman who had to apologize for another race-related statement, her claim to be a Native American. Warren is accustomed exploiting race as a means to promote herself, and her claim about white […]
Massachusetts parents sue public school officials and teachers for discrimination against Jews and Israelis

Democrat meeting about party anti-Semitism features anti-Semitic jokes, Omar won’t affirm Israel’s right to exist
This meeting makes it clear that the Democrats are not going to be able to remove anti-Semitism from the party. Hatred of Jews and Israel, and uncritical acceptance of “Palestinian” jihad propaganda, is shared among too much of their base. And whenever they’re challenged, Omar and Tlaib claim victim status and cry “Islamophobia.” It has […]
Iran and Turkey join forces against the Kurds
Last year, 90,000 mosques prayed Qur’anic “conquest” prayers for victory against the Kurds, calling on Muslims to be “ruthless against unbelievers,” right before Erdogan’s thousands of soldiers were dispatched to “decimate” the Kurds. Now the Turkish Interior Ministry has announced that Turkey and Iran have joined forces “against Kurdish separatist militants of the Kurdistan Workers’ […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: In Turkey, Antisemitism Right and Left (Part Two)
Abraham Jonas of Springfield, Illinois, whose sons fought on both sides during the Civil War, was himself an active Republican who helped place Lincoln’s name in nomination in 1860. Samuel G. Alschuler, a Bavarian Jewish immigrant and photographer, took numerous photographic portraits of Lincoln from his days as a young, rising politician to the president’s […]
UK: Labour MP slams establishment media for ignoring the slaughter of African Christians
“British Labour MP Kate Hoey has condemned the mainstream media for ignoring the ‘slaughter’ of over 100 Christians in Nigeria by Muslim militants over the past three weeks.” Hoey is correct. “Her criticism comes after Western networks and publishers have given extensive coverage to the murder of 50 Muslim worshippers who were gunned down in […]
