Celebrate diversity! “French teachers hail Taliban and Jihad,” by Giulio Meotti, Arutz Sheva, September 9, 2021: Almost a year after the beheading of Professor Samuel Paty in a middle school in Conflans-Sainte-Honorine, after which the Minister of Education Jean Michel Blanquer revealed that 800 Islamist “episodes” have occurred in French schools, a French professor was […]
Taliban Spox Gives Epic Response When Asked About Free Speech: ‘Ask Facebook’
My latest in PJ Media: Old Joe Biden’s handlers have done a great deal for the Taliban in the last week, but one thing they can’t do is ensure that the jihad group receives the same kind of fawning, sycophantic press treatment that the Biden administration gets here at home, or at least did […]
Taliban leaders freely used Twitter and Facebook’s WhatsApp as they took power in Afghanistan
According to Reuters, “The Taliban’s rapid takeover of Afghanistan poses a new challenge for big U.S. tech companies on handling content created by a group considered to be terrorists by some world governments.” The challenge really isn’t about “handling content” at all. The solution is simple: strip jihadists of their accounts. Instead, Twitter and Facebook […]
Muslims celebrate online: ‘Afghanistan is conquered and Islam has won’
Here yet again, the jihadis seem to be the last people to get the message, taken for granted universally among the political and media elites in the West, that they have nothing whatsoever to do with Islam. Perhaps Pope Francis will head to Kabul soon to explain to the Taliban that “authentic Islam and the […]
Taliban used WhatsApp to appeal to Afghans, US never monitored communications or asked Facebook to ban them
Criminal negligence. For the US military brass, woke imperatives came first. “Did America just lose Afghanistan because of WhatsApp?,” by Preston Byrne, August 15, 2021: …Conventionally, the United States did everything right; it installed a government, equipped and trained an army with four times the Taliban’s manpower, an air force, and top of the line American […]
Turkmenistan: Internet users forced to swear on Quran that they won’t use VPNs
Turkmenistan is ostensibly a secular state, but clearly it has a strong Islamic character. A former Soviet Republic, Turkmenistan has retained much of its previous totalitarianism, now with an Islamic cast. This was a natural fit, as the two elements of the Marxist-Islamic red-green axis share a taste for terror and repression as tools of […]
Robert Spencer on Secure Freedom Radio: If they can ban me, they can ban you
As I explained here. “Robert Spencer: If they can ban me, they can ban you,” Secure Freedom Radio, August 6, 2021: …ROBERT SPENCER, Director, Jihad Watch, Weekly columnist, PJ Media and FrontPage Magazine, Author, “Mass Migration in Europe: A Model for the U.S.?,” and forthcoming, “Islamophobia and the Threat to Free Speech,” @jihadwatchRS The Global […]
Social media giants ban UK jihad preacher Anjem Choudary
No problem here. Anjem Choudary has been convicted of providing support to the Islamic State and has been linked to numerous jihad attacks that his followers carried out. Calling for or supporting jihad terrorism or other criminal activity ought indeed to be grounds for immediate banning. However, the social media giants are also apparently preparing […]
Norway: Muslim cleric writes that ‘Hitler let some Jews be so world would see why it is necessary to kill them’
The Jews in the Qur’an are called the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); they fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); they claim that Allah’s power is limited (5:64); they love to listen to lies (5:41); they disobey Allah and never observe his commands (5:13). They […]
Big Tech is Censoring Americans Using UN Law
The UN and Big Tech are running a secret “No Fly List” for the internet. Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism.
