“The Old Bailey heard Watson grew up in Liverpool before converting to Islam and becoming ‘quickly radicalised’ after watching Isis videos online in 2015.” This assumes that Watson converted to a benign and peaceful form of Islam, and only turned violent after he chanced to see these Islamic State videos. Now, I’ve seen quite a […]
UK: Muslim who carried pipe bomb onto flight found guilty, but counterterror top dog says motive unknown
Prosecutor Jonathan Sandiford said: “The crown says that the only reason why somebody would try and carry an assembled and viable IED through stringent airport security checks and on to an aeroplane would be a desire and intention to detonate it within the confines of that aeroplane. The only reason for doing that would have […]
Hamburg police tried to recruit supermarket jihad murderer as informant
“In June, a member of the State Criminal Police Office (LKA) travelled to the asylum home where Ahmad lived to talk about the signs of radicalisation with the asylum home staff. The officer started talking to Ahmad and realised that he had been radicalised and attempted to recruit him to inform on other members of […]
Poll shows that more Germans fear climate change than jihad terrorism
This is not surprising. They’ve been told day in and day out that opposition to jihad terror and Merkel’s suicidal policies regarding Muslim migrants is “neo-Nazi.” Of course they’re more concerned about climate chimeras than about jihad reality. Merkel is taking Germany quietly into the darkness. Future generations of free Germans, if there are any, […]
UN study finds Islamic State jihadis “lack basic understanding of Islam”
This study directly contradicts the results of another new study in Germany, which found that “the widespread view that radical Muslims know little about Islam is wrong.” Which study are we to believe? Well, this one reinforces the common view that a typical jihadi “is most likely to be male, young and disadvantaged economically, educationally, […]
McMaster blocked Ayaan Hirsi Ali from speaking to NSC and meeting Trump: “Islamophobic”
McMaster appears to be doing all he can to make sure that the truth about Islam and jihad is not discussed at the NSC or the White House. He must go. He must go soon. “Censored! McMaster Barred Scholar Ayaan Hirsi Ali from Giving Talk on Radical Islam at NSC,” by Mike Cernovich, Medium, August 4, […]
Robert Spencer: Yes, It Really Is All About Islam
My latest in the Geller Report: Two news items this week show us once again what the establishment media and almost all political authorities in the free world are determined to deny: jihad terrorism really is all about Islam. The first was in Australia, from which the Daily Mail Australia reported Saturday that “about 40 […]
Obama “Countering Violent Extremism” top dog who met with Hamas-linked CAIR hundreds of times resigns
The entire “Countering Violent Extremism” program is an attempt to divert attention away from Islamic jihad, which it never addresses, and to pretend that “extremism” can arise with equal strength and virulence from any religious group. It needs to be dismantled, and replaced with realistic and honest assessment of the motivating ideology behind jihad terror. […]
France’s only jihadi “deradicalization” center is closing — it was voluntary, and it was empty
“The centre had capacity for up to 25 people, who were accepted on a voluntary basis and were able to undergo education and internship programmes of up to ten months. However, it had been sitting empty since February and only welcomed nine people in total – none of whom completed the full programme.” It was […]
UK Bedfordshire Police: “Do you think you could spot the signs of right wing extremism?”
No, of course the Bedfordshire Police has not asked people if they think they could spot the signs of Islamic jihad activity. Britain has its priorities: as far as British authorities are concerned, opposing jihad terror (i.e., “right wing extremism”) is a much more serious offense than jihad terror itself. Yet only one of the […]
