“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’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 […]
As global jihad advances, Obama Pentagon mulls easing rules for obese, pot smokers
Billions to the Islamic Republic of Iran. A massive influx of Muslim migrants, among whom will inevitably be an unknowable number of murderous Islamic jihadists. And now this. You’d almost think Obama wanted to weaken the United States, except that would be inconceivable…wouldn’t it? “Pentagon may ease recruiting rules for obese people, pot smokers and […]
