The mainstream media is crowing over how this video apparently vindicates the earlier claim by their favored candidate, Hillary Clinton, that Trump’s words were fueling jihad terror recruitment. See, she was right all along! Or maybe al-Shabaab decided to try to overwhelm her massive negatives and get her elected. But none of that is really […]
Robert Spencer in FrontPage: House Democrats Move to Criminalize Criticism of Islam
In FrontPage today I explain how lumping together violence with “hateful rhetoric” is a call to destroy the freedom of speech: December 17, 2015 ought henceforth to be a date which will live in infamy, as that was the day that some of the leading Democrats in the House of Representatives came out in favor […]
SDSU: Muslim Student Association demands “zero tolerance policy explicitly for Islamophobic speech”
Here again we see how Leftist and Islamic supremacist groups use the term “Islamophobia” for both attacks on innocent civilians, which have no justification under any circumstances, and for honest examination of how Islamic jihadists use the texts and teachings of Islam to incite hatred and violence. These groups use the former to quash the […]
Belgium: 9th Muslim arrested over Paris jihad murders, Belgian King warns against “Islamophobia”
“We continue, unfortunately, to be marked by the dramatic attacks perpetrated in Paris, and realize the dangers that continue to weigh on us.” What kind of dangers? From what quarter? “He also appealed for tolerance, saying that a large majority of Belgians of immigrant backgrounds ‘share the values of our country,’ and that ‘they are […]
Turkish Religious Affairs top dog: Islamic State causes as much damage as “Islamophobic” Muhammad cartoons
Let’s see. The Islamic State has murdered thousands upon thousands of people. Cartoons of Muhammad don’t kill anyone. Some Muslims decide to commit murder because of Muhammad cartoons, but if they decided to exercise some self-control and try to understand the lineaments of a free and pluralistic society, no one would get hurt at all […]
University of San Diego prof, students protest “Islamophobia” by wearing yellow Jewish stars labeled “Muslim”
The implication here is that “anti-Muslim rhetoric” — that is, public discussion of the jihad threat and what can be done about it — leads inexorably to the demonization of Muslims and ultimately to genocide. This is ridiculous, overheated rhetoric that only hinders the prospects of any genuine discussion of the salient issues, and that […]
Video: Ex-Muslim compares “Islamophobia” to the persecution of ex-Muslims in Muslim countries
“Islam silences us in the East by threatening some of us, arresting some, persecuting others, and killing apostates, but in the West Islam is trying to silence us using this weird term: Islamophobia. Islam is a set of doctrines, we have the right to criticize it like any other doctrine, it’s a set of ideas […]
Robert Spencer, PJM: ‘NY Daily News’: San Bernardino Victim Just as Bigoted as His Murderer
Linda Stasi insults jihad murder victim as “male equivalent of Pamela Geller.” Ironically, Geller’s warnings foretold the slaughter. My latest in PJ Media: The mainstream media has for years been in the business of justifying jihad terror and demonizing those who oppose it, but now it has reached an appalling new low. Linda Stasi in […]
SB-area man didn’t report suspicious activity for fear of being called racist
“A man who has been working in the area said he noticed a half-dozen Middle Eastern men in the area in recent weeks, but decided not to report anything since he did not wish to racially profile those people.” The same thing happened several years ago in the Fort Dix jihad plot: the young man […]
“Clock Boy” claims fears of anti-Islam protests keep him from returning to U.S.
Young Ahmed Mohamed is well on his way to becoming a high-salaried, much sought-after professional Muslim victim, perennial poster boy for the ills of “Islamophobia.” Watch for him to take over for Nihad Awad or Ibrahim Hooper at the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) when they go to their virgins. Or at least Hamas-linked […]
