What authority does Turkey have to declare void an agreement to which it was not a party? None, of course. Erdogan is asserting authority as if he were the Ottoman caliph. “Erdogan: Egyptian-Greek agreement is null and void,” Libya Observer, August 8, 2020: …Erdogan stressed, in a speech on Friday, that the agreement signed by […]
Italy: Muslim migrant screaming “Allahu akbar” attacks police with nunchucks

Leaderless Islamic Terrorism: A Dangerous Evolution
The structure of jihadi/takfiri Islamic terrorism has begun to take a significant turn. Terrorist Muslim groups are becoming leaderless. This new form borrows from the anarchist theory that by being diverse, amorphous, and flexible they are less easily attacked and destroyed.
