Will some “moderate” Muslim spokesman in the West kindly explain how the Islamic State is misunderstanding and misapplying Islam in this case? After all, this treatment of non-Muslims is prescribed in the Qur’an. So how can they object? Yet they constantly insist that what the Islamic State is doing has nothing to do with Islam. […]
Video: Robert Spencer on Sun TV on the rise of anti-Semitism, the return of dhimmitude, Sharia enforcement in Seattle, and more
Yesterday I appeared on Michael Coren’s Sun TV show, discussing: 1) The anti-Semitic Belgian doctor who refused to help a 90-year-old Jewish woman, telling her: “Go to Gaza.” 2) The Syriac Orthodox Bishop George Saliba, who said: “Islam has never changed and Muslims have been educated on the bad treatment of Christians.” 3) The Seattle […]
Pakistan used U.S. anti-terror military aid to buy equipment to fight India
“Most of that military aid never went to counterinsurgency; it went to buying equipment to fight India. And as is the case in Afghanistan, on the economic side, in spite of efforts by the Congress over the last 10 years, we have never had a single report from USAID to explain what the benefits or […]
Islamic Jizya — ‘Protection’ from Whom?
Is jizya—the money non-Muslims historically paid their Muslim conquerors—meant to buy them “protection,” including from outside enemies, as modern Western academics maintain? Or was it simply extortion money meant to buy non-Muslims their lives, as Islam’s scriptures mandate? The word jizya appears in Koran 9:29: “Fight those among the People of the Book [Christians and Jews] […]
UK: Families barred from cinema for not being Muslim
This time the cinema apologized. Next time they won’t. Leon Jennings and everyone else in Britain better get used to this sort of thing, because it is going to keep happening. They better get used to their new overlords. And if they don’t like it, they can take it up with Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, […]
Syriac Orthodox bishop: “Islam has never changed, and Muslims have been educated on the bad treatment of Christians”
“What is happening in Iraq is a strange thing, but it is normal for Muslims, because they have never treated Christians well, and they have always held an offensive and defaming stand against Christians.” This is a statement of the reality of the system of dhimmitude as it exists in Islamic law to this day, […]
Jizya: Europe finances al-Qaeda through ransom payments
Europe (and the U.S.) are financing al-Qaeda’s jihad through ransom payments. That’s why we continue to see kidnappings of Westerners, and these kidnappings will continue into the indefinite future, because for the jihadists, they are lucrative. “Paying Ransoms, Europe Bankrolls Qaeda Terror,” by Rukmini Callimachi, New York Times, July 29, 2014 (thanks to Pamela Geller): […]
Ex-Muslim critic of Islam expelled from Norway, faces deportion to Pakistan and death
Firasat has been sent back to Spain, where he faces deportation to Pakistan. In Pakistan, he would certainly be killed. “The Spanish Supreme Court has ruled that Firasat should be expelled from the country, being a security threat.” But it is not actually Imran Firasat who is the security threat; it is the Muslims who […]
Sweden: Policeman caught by violent mob inside Muslim area left alone by colleagues for fear of riots
The decision to leave their colleague alone in the hands of these barbarians was probably taken by leaders inside the police department. What I heard from a usually well-informed source is that the quickest way to make a career inside the police force is to be pro-multicultural and pro-appeasement, and to avoid riots at all […]
Huffington Post, Ahmadi Muslim leader Qasim Rashid whitewash Qur’an’s teaching about subjugating Infidels
Why take issue with Qasim Rashid? He says all the right things, doesn’t he? He condemns the Islamic State and other Islamic jihadists. He explains how what they do has nothing to do with Islam. He carries around naive non-Muslims who are avid to find Muslim “moderates,” like the UK Harry’s Place editor Sarah Brown, […]
