Yesterday I spoke to the Young America’s Foundation Reagan Ranch October conference about how government, law enforcement, and the establishment media ignore and/or deny the nature and magnitude of the global jihad threat. You can order the book The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS here.
Officials hesitate to call Cologne hostage-taking “terrorism” because migrant jihadi “appeared disheveled”
He told people he was with the Islamic State, but Cologne officials are discounting that because he “may have been suffering from psychological problems, appeared dishevelled with unkempt long hair and a three-day beard, and was under the influence of alcohol.” That only clean-shaven people with neatly combed hair can be jihadis is actually unproven. […]
US general: “Little progress has been made in addressing the underlying conditions that lead to violent extremism”
Indeed not, because the U.S. military is still committed to ignoring, downplaying, or denying outright the motivating ideology that leads to jihad terror. Dunford’s use of the Obama-era euphemism “violent extremism,” when he means Islamic jihad, is one indication of this. As long as the U.S. is committed as a matter of policy to not […]
Brooklyn: Hate crime charge dropped against Muslim who brutally beat Jew while screaming “Allah” and “kill the Jews”
Farrukh Afzal was screaming “Allah” and “kill all the Jews.” Before he attacked Lipa Schwartz, he switched lanes and nearly hit a Jewish pedestrian. But WABC, without explanation, removed Lipa Schwartz’s statement that Afzal was screaming “Allah” from its report. And while the Daily Mail reported yesterday that Afzal had been charged with a hate […]
Germany: Police “not ruling out terror” in hostage-taking by Muslim migrant who threw Molotov cocktail
What? No immediate declaration that he is “mentally ill”? The Merkel government must be feeling the heat from the AfD again. An update on this story. “German police ‘not ruling out terror’ motive in Cologne hostage-taking,” AFP, October 15, 2018: COLOGNE, Germany — German police said Monday that they were not eliminating terrorism as a […]
UKIP Leader Gerard Batten Criticized by Nigel Farage for Telling the Truth (Part Two)
Robert Spencer noted in June: At a recent dinner of the UK Independence Party (UKIP), which he formerly headed, Farage said: “If dealing with Islamic fundamentalism becomes a battle between us and the entire religion, I’ll tell you the result: we’ll lose. We will simply lose….We absolutely have to get that Muslim majority living in […]
UKIP Leader Gerard Batten Criticized by Nigel Farage for Telling the Truth (Part One)
The Sky News headline was “UKIP leader Gerard Batten criticised by Nigel Farage for endorsing anti-Muslim rally,” and the article reported: Gerard Batten told a right-wing protest that Muslim child grooming gangs have been covered up and are a “social scandal.” Why “right-wing”? What makes it “right-wing” to protest the covering-up of Muslim grooming gangs? […]
Professor claims that “to argue that Islam is an inherently violent religion is both utterly false and ahistorical”
Establishment academic Juan Cole claims here that “the Islamophobes like to argue that Islam is an inherently violent religion, that its adherents are quite literally commanded to such violence by its holy scriptures, the Qur’an. It’s a position that, as I explain in my new book, Muhammad: Prophet of Peace Amid the Clash of Empires, […]
Marine Le Pen: She’s Not the Crazy One
This past March, Marine Le Pen was charged with circulating “violent messages that incite terrorism or pornography or seriously harm human dignity.” Her crime was tweeting the photographs of atrocities committed by fanatical Muslims, members of the Islamic State, that they themselves had released as propaganda. A few weeks after the attacks in Paris in […]
UK: University lecturer under fire for saying “terror attacks were carried out by Muslims because of Islam”
Blackburn tweeted: “If the left hadn’t told me the EDL were the real threat I would have carried on thinking it was machete-wielding, Koran-quoting Muslims.” And: “I know the media haven’t told us but I suspect these terror attacks were carried out by Muslims because of Islam.” Let’s see. Which group has been responsible for […]
