While the Palestinians have been venting their fury over the UAE-Israel “normalization,” several Arab academics have defended the agreement as making the Palestinians the “biggest winners.” The story is here. Abd al-Aziz bin Razen, a prominent Saudi academic and researcher, defended the normalization agreement between Israel and the United Arab Emirates on Saturday, saying it […]

Turkey: Erdogan converts historic Chora church into mosque
The conversion of Hagia Sophia to a mosque, followed so closely by this conversion of the Chora church, is a declaration of Islamic supremacism. Erdogan is signaling the victory of Islam and its supremacy not only over Christianity, although that is certainly part of what he is doing, but also over Ataturk’s secularism. Ataturk made […]
UK: ‘Embarrassed’ Home Office shuts down hotel that had been taken over to house illegal migrants
Jihad Watch reported on August 9: While British citizens must endure the many inconveniences of the coronavirus lockdown, including massive job loss and future uncertainty, illegal migrants have gotten “VIP tours of Anfield Stadium after Liverpool’s Premier League win.” Not only that, but they have “filled up” hotels on the taxpayer dime, while those same […]
The Difference Donald Trump Has Made
Donald Trump is so passionately loved — and fanatically hated — partly because he has changed the course of the United States, both domestically and internationally, for the first time since before World War II. Some believe that he has upset the world order that has prevented a third world war, and risks plunging the […]
The Jihad Terrorist in New York City You Heard Nothing About
My latest in PJ Media: While the New York Police Department zealously guards Mayor de Blasio’s infamous “Black Lives Matter” street graffiti in front of Trump Tower, other, more serious endeavors continue that, if the city had a rational mayor, might actually have a better claim on the NYPD’s time and resources. Those include Islamic […]
India: Muslim cleric rapes 9-year-old girl, her family pressured to drop legal complaint and marry her to him
Islamic tradition records that Muhammad consummated his marriage with (i.e., raped) Aisha when she was nine, and the resultant fact that child marriage is accepted in wide swaths of the Islamic world. Child marriage has abundant attestation in Islamic tradition and law. Turkey’s directorate of religious affairs (Diyanet) said in January 2018 that under Islamic […]
Virginia: Islamic scholar serving life sentence for recruiting for jihad ordered released while he pursues appeal
“Al-Timimi argued that prosecutors overstated his influence with those who traveled to Pakistan, and that he was punished for unpopular speech rather than criminal conduct.” Interesting defense. It may have been true in 2005 that jihad recruitment was “unpopular speech,” but nowadays Leftists would cheer al-Timimi on. The real “unpopular speech” today is opposition to […]
Australia: Despite police crackdown, Muslim network openly spreads jihad ideology, may recruit for jihad groups
This jihadi network received unfavorable attention from the media and police years ago, yet it is still operating. Australian officials’ failure to implement a zero tolerance policy has enabled it to continue its activity. As long as this official diffidence continues, these jihadist organizations will inevitably proliferate further, while continue to intimidate anyone who warns […]
Pakistan establishing diplomatic missions in Africa amid ‘rising radical Islamic terrorism’
Pakistan has been playing a double game and it is doing it again. The country has long been known as a sponsor of jihad terror activity; its new alliances in Africa are a cause for concern, given recent trends in many African countries. Ever since the fall of the Islamic State in Syria and Iraq, […]
Turkey: People smugglers advertise fake ‘cruises’ on Facebook, offering to ship migrants to Italy for $6500
The hijra into Europe continues. Even during the coronavirus lockdown, hordes of illegal Muslim migrants have arrived in Britain from France via the English Channel. Migrants have also swarmed into Italy and overwhelmed the Island of Lampedusa. And who is to blame? Western globalist leaders who were voted in by people who were and largely […]
