“Defense attorney Valerie Masters, who vowed to appeal the conviction, said Mustafa was also a victim of violence. Growing up in a strict Muslim community in New York City, Mustafa was beaten daily by his father, she wrote in court papers. His mother was powerless to intervene because she, too, was the victim of horrific […]
Robert Spencer in FrontPage Mag: Is the FBI Creating Islamic Terrorists?
In FrontPage I discuss the latest report from Human Rights Watch, which claims that Islamic jihad terrorists in the U.S. weren’t really Islamic jihad terrorists until the FBI drove the poor dears to it: Human Rights Watch issued a report Monday claiming that “far from protecting Americans, including American Muslims, from the threat of terrorism…in some […]
Robert Spencer in PJ Media: 4 Muslims Who Deserve to Be Under Surveillance
Leftists and Islamic supremacists are raising an uproar about this surveillance, and so it will soon end. But it shouldn’t. Here’s why, in my PJ Media piece for this week: Leftists and Islamic supremacists are enraged this week over the revelation that the FBI and NSA, despite their officially politically correct See-No-Islam Hear-No-Islam Speak No-Islam […]
Robert Spencer in Truth Revolt: Glenn Greenwald Enraged That Muslims With Terror Ties Under Surveillance
Over at Truth Revolt I discuss the notorious Leftist propagandist’s latest exercise in jihad-enabling victimhood posturing: Glenn Greenwald and his fellow jihad-enabling “journalist” Murtaza Hussain on Wednesday published a major exposé, “Under Surveillance: Meet the Muslim-American Leaders the FBI and NSA Have Been Spying On,” about Muslim leaders who are being spied upon by the […]
Glenn Greenwald enraged that Muslims with terror ties under surveillance
Here is more about the new Glenn Greenwald/Murtaza Hussain “exposé” that complains that honest, upstanding, loyal, patriotic American Muslims are under FBI and NSA surveillance (not to worry; they won’t be for long, now that this piece has been published). Greenwald and Hussain make their case by glossing over the very real reasons why surveillance […]
Shock horror: Hamas-linked CAIR’s Nihad Awad under surveillance!
Glenn Greenwald and his fellow jihad-enabling “journalist” Murtaza Hussain have a major exposé out today about Muslim leaders who are being spied upon by the FBI and the NSA. The thrust of the article is that each one is as pure as the day is long, with the one sin of opposing U.S. government policies. […]
Dearborn: Muslim confesses to burning Qur’ans at Islamic center
Last month, the Imam Husham al-Husainy used the Qur’ans burned at the Karbalaa Center to call for Sharia restrictions on the freedom of speech. Now it turns out that the Qur’ans were burned by Ali Hassan Al-Assadi, a Muslim who was angry with people at the local mosques and says he burned the Qur’ans in retribution. […]
Qatar: UK media investigation into World Cup bribery allegations is “racist” and “Islamophobic”
“But just what is ‘racist’ about bribery?,” asks Al Arabiya — or about investigating bribery? This bizarre response from Qatar to charges that it bought the right to host the 2022 World Cup shows the hollowness of the charges of “racism” and “Islamophobia” that are constantly leveled at counter-jihadists. Just as there is nothing racist […]
Robert Spencer in Aleteia: The “Terrorist” Double Standard
In Aleteia I explode the ridiculous myth propagated by Hamas-linked CAIR and the Washington Post, that the media designates only Muslims as terrorists. In a Washington Post piece entitled, “In the news media, are Muslims the only ‘terrorists’?” Paul Farhi complains that killers Jerad and Amanda Miller and other right-wing extremists have not been labeled […]
Washington Post, Hamas-linked CAIR claim media labels only Muslims “terrorists”
More Muslim victimhood fantasy from the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations and its reliable tools at the Washington Post. Speaking of bias, Paul Farhi never mentions that CAIR an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation case, when what was once the nation’s largest Muslim charity was discovered to have been funneling money to Hamas.
