Egypt: Friends fear that family of ex-teacher of Islam who became Christian may have killed him
The death penalty for apostasy is part of Islamic law. It’s based on the Qur’an: “They wish you would disbelieve as they disbelieved so you would be alike. So do not take from among them allies until they emigrate for the cause of Allah. But if they turn away, then seize them and kill them […]

This new edition of the Glazov Gang features Kursat Christoff Pekgoz, a Ph.D. student at the University of Southern California. He has advocated for the civil rights of secular dissidents and religious minorities while living in Turkey.

Israel and the “Palestinians”: It’s Time for a Reset
The old saying goes: “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. Our policy toward Israel and the “Palestinians” is, by that definition, quite spectacularly insane. It’s time for an honest and realistic analysis of the problem, and a genuine reset of our policies. Find out what must […]
Atlanta Braves Suffer Catastrophic Defeat After Kowtowing to the Left on Tomahawk Chop
This story is not about jihad, except for the kowtowing to the Left part. My latest in PJ Media: The Atlanta Braves long ago retired Chief Noc-a-Homa, who used to emerge from a teepee in the outfield stands and do a dance every time a Braves player hit a home run, but they’re still not […]
Australia: Imams say media shouldn’t have mentioned that boy who forced Jewish boy to kiss his shoes was Muslim
What is astonishing is that the establishment media did actually report that the thug was Muslim. Ordinarily the media elites seem to consider it their first and foremost priority to make sure that no one thinks ill of Islam, and thus to cover up and obfuscate, and in some cases deny outright, the roots of […]
Finland: Politician fined $4500 for noting that jihad terrorists “have one thing in common: they all serve Allah”
Not only is the Left at war with reality, but it demands that people who are still sane accept its fantasies, on pain of pecuniary or other punishment. Jihad terrorists are indeed all Muslim and believe that they are serving Allah. So what exactly did Sebastian Tynkkynen say that was wrong? Nothing, but his statement […]
UK: Muslim cleric from US says thieves’ hands should be amputated, but only in Muslim world
Sure, but what makes the amputation of thieves’ hands acceptable in the Muslim world but not in the UK? It’s a Qur’anic command (5:38). Abu Usamah At-Thahabi’s answer would probably be that Britain is not a Sharia state or even a majority-Muslim country, and so Islamic law cannot be fully enforced. But if Muslims become […]
Germany: Muslim migrant forced girlfriend to live by the Qur’an, beat her savagely when she disobeyed
We reported at Jihad Watch on a similar case in Germany just days ago, involving another Muslim migrant who brutally beat his wife. Danke, Merkel! “Men have authority over women because Allah has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard […]
France: Journalist who found that Paris jihadi was convert to Islam sanctioned for saying it could be jihad attack
The Left’s war with reality drives it farther into insanity every day. Clement Weill-Raynal discovered that Paris jihad murderer Mickaël Harpon was a convert to Islam and said on the air that the attack could be jihad. For that, his employers are threatening him. It was a jihad attack, so they should be thanking him […]
