“Homeland Security officials blamed computer code for the problem” of approving citizenship for 175 immigrants without FBI background checks.” It was another embarrassing black eye for USCIS, which earlier this year admitted it had granted citizenship to hundreds of criminals who should have been barred but who escaped notice because the agency wasn’t properly checking […]
America’s right to bear arms blamed for homeland jihad attacks
The Telegraph blames America’s right to bear arms for its so-called murder rate problem, which includes jihad attacks: From family rows and college shootings, such as the one in Roseburg which killed 10, to terrorist attacks, like Orlando’s Pulse nightclub attack which left 50 dead, thousands have died because of guns legally produced and bought […]
Jimmy Carter wants UN to impose a Palestinian state by fiat, with US recognition
In a cynical gesture repeated each year, the UN observes the “International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People” on Nov. 29, turning a positive anniversary into a pretext for Israel-bashing and antisemitism. Jimmy Carter has taken full advantage of this “cynical gesture,” going so far as to call on Obama to “recognize ‘Palestine’ before he […]
White House warns against blaming Islam for OSU jihad attack
“Our response to this situation matters. If we respond to this situation by casting aspersions on millions of people that adhere to a particular religion or if we increase our suspicion of people who practice a particular religion, we are more likely going to contribute to acts of violence than we are to prevent them.” […]
Obama Justice Dept. sues NJ township for rejecting mosque
People have legitimate concerns about mosques going up in their neighborhood. Four separate studies since 1999 all found that 80% of U.S. mosques were teaching jihad, Islamic supremacism, and hatred and contempt for Jews and Christians. There are no countervailing studies that challenge these results. In 1998, Sheikh Muhammad Hisham Kabbani, a Sufi leader, visited […]
Video: Robert Spencer on Obama’s claim “no religious rationale” for terrorism
Is there really “no religious rationale” for terrorism, as Barack Obama has said? In this new video, I show why that is a false assumption that leads to wrong and repeatedly failed policies.
Obama administration in its death throes still covering up key details of Iran deal
The known elements of the deal are bad enough, as I explain in my book The Complete Infidel’s Guide to Iran. But the secret codicils just keep making things worse. “Obama Admin Covering Up Key Iran Deal Details in Final Days,” by Adam Kredo, Washington Free Beacon, November 22, 2016: Senior Obama administration officials in […]
Robert Spencer in FrontPage: Clueless Clapper Calls It Quits
The era of fantasy-based policymaking is drawing to a close. My latest in FrontPage: Barack Obama’s Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper, submitted his letter of resignation on Wednesday, and the next day he told the House Select Committee on Intelligence that doing so “felt pretty good….I have 64 days left and I’d have a […]
Iraqi Christians: Obama abandoned us to the Islamic State
“Obama has never helped the Christians. In fact, he despises them. In the last 26 months, he has shown he despises all of them. But we have hope in the new president, Trump.” “Christians claim Obama ‘ABANDONED’ them to sick ISIS jihadis – and back Trump election win,” by Oli Smith, Express, November 6, 2016 […]
Obama’s ‘Traditional Muslim Bias’ against Christians
Reprinted from the Gatestone Institute Almost a year ago, President Barack Hussein Obama described the suggestion that the U.S. give preference to Christian refugees over Muslim refugees as “shameful.” “That’s not American. That’s not who we are. We don’t have religious tests to our compassion,” he loftily added. Now, WikiLeaks has released a 2008 […]
