“Nonviolent terrorism”? Is that like “moderate Islamist”? Western officials become contortionists, twisting themselves into pretzels trying to avoid facing the reality of jihad. “Prosecutors pushing for 10-year sentence for Toronto man who tried leave Canada to join ‘brutal’ terrorists,” by Stewart Bell, National Post, June 25, 2014: A Toronto man convicted of attempting to join […]
Canada: Accused jihadi says Taliban had right to kill Canadians in Afghanistan
Misbahuddin Ahmed’s statements are yet another indication of the practical consequences of Islam’s claims to constitute a global community (umma), the loyalty to which transcends all other loyalties. Imagine saying “You’ve got to look at it from their perspective.” about the Nazis as the Allied armies entered German territory in 1945. “Taliban had right to […]
ISIS jihadi from Canada urges Muslims to follow example of Calgary jihad/martyrdom suicide bomber
“A message posted online eulogizes Salman Ashrafi, a Canadian member of the ultra-extremist Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham, as a ‘brave warrior’ and goads Muslims to ‘prove their manhood’ by following in his footsteps.” Not that this has anything to do with Islam, of course. To think otherwise will land you with charges of […]
Back in Canada, Iraq jihad suicide bomber “seemed like a regular guy”
Iqbal Nadvi, director of the Alfala Islamic Centre in Oakville, Ontario, “knew the Ashrafi family in Calgary and said Salman was a ‘very quiet person’ who might have had a personal crisis after his wife left.” Yes, that must be it. How many times have we seen it? A guy gets divorced, gets depressed, and […]
Canada: Hamas-linked Muslim group to proceed with libel suit against PM Harper and spokesman for saying it was Hamas-linked
This takes chutzpah. Does the NCCM have ties to Hamas or not? The superb Canadian site Point de Bascule laid it all out when the NCCM first started threatening to sue. A sampling: In order to understand the context of the PMO’s remarks, it is helpful to go back to the origins of CAIR-CAN. CAIR-CAN […]
Muslim from Canada was jihad/martyrdom suicide bomber in Iraq in 2013
We are constantly told that all Muslims in the West are moderate, and that only greasy Islamophobes would dare to suggest that there should be any surveillance of mosques and Muslim gatherings such as the New York Police Department used to conduct. Why should mosques be under any more surveillance than the local Methodist church, […]
Canada Muslim killed waging jihad in Syria says jihad “as Canadian as maple syrup”
Pictured is “the storefront Islamic centre in Calgary where Abu Dujana al-Muhajir said he started a prayer group.” With whom did he pray? To whom did he speak? What did the other people there think of his promotion of the jihad in Syria? Does anyone know? Does anyone care? Note also his dismissal of Canada’s […]
Video: Robert Spencer on Sun TV on appeasement of Muslims in UK, Canada
Here is the latest of my weekly appearances on Michael Coren’s TV show. Video courtesy AlohaSnackbar01, who gives this summary of the topics discussed: 1) Subway Restaurants in the UK replace ham and bacon with halal meats in order to appease Muslims. Non-Muslims can either choose to accept further encroachment of Islam into their lives, […]
Canada: Muslim accused of conspiring to kill Americans and supporting jihad group
There are two choices: either this endless parade of Muslims conspiring to murder Americans represents a jihad of massive proportions, or the American government is so evil and Islamophobic that it continues to frame innocent Muslims on trumped-up charges to justify the massive expenditures of the “war on terror.” Judging from Barack Obama’s behavior, the […]
Canada: Accused jihadi wanted to move to Muslim country to escape “Islamophobia”
The idea that Mohamed Hersi suffered discrimination in Canada because he is a Muslim is risible — especially in light of the fact that in virtually all of the Muslim countries that he could have moved to, he would have had fewer rights than he had in Canada. But the idea that he wanted to […]
