The hysteria of Stanford fascists over my impending appearance on campus, and the ensuing smear campaign, continues, and is growing more desperate and vicious by the moment. Jihad Watch has been loaded with posts on this over the last few days, and I apologize if some readers find it tiresome, but I believe it important […]

Indonesia: Nearly 20% of high school and university students support establishment of a caliphate
Nearly 20 percent of high school and university students in Indonesia support the establishment of a caliphate, a survey showed last week. That’s a fifth of the student population in a country not long ago deemed to be a model “moderate” Muslim nation. The steady rise of “a rise of a hardline, politicised Islam in […]
H.R. McMaster avoids Islamic jihad terrorist label again, calls NYC jihadi a “mass murderer”
H.R. McMaster, President Trump’s embattled national security adviser, referred to the Islamic terrorist suspect in Tuesday’s deadly jihadist attack in Lower Manhattan as among a grouping of “mass murderers.” “Embattled” is right. McMaster is at odds with the Trump administration’s war against jihad terror, which motivated the President to issue a temporary ban on immigration […]
Saipov had 3,800 ISIS images on his phone, note saying “There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is his prophet”
Not that this has anything to do with Islam, right, Mr. Miller? New York Deputy Police Commissioner John Miller says, “This isn’t about Islam, this isn’t about the mosque he attends.” He is ignoring the reality in front of his face, and depriving himself of the ability to understand Saipov’s motives and goals. “Feds reveal […]
UK: Muslim lobby that regularly works with police and government promotes jihad and anti-Semitism
A Muslim lobby group, which regularly works with police, MPs, and local government, promotes “extremism”, harbours anti-Semites, and gives a platform to Muslim grievance narratives and Islamist views, a report has found. Muslim Engagement and Development (Mend) claims to help British Muslims engage in the democratic process. In a similar fashion across the Western world, […]
Robert Spencer invited to speak at Stanford, Left-fascists in an uproar
Here is an article, unusually even-handed for a campus paper, about my planned appearance at Stanford. The headline refers to “Controversial Islam critic Robert Spencer.” Yes, “controversial,” but why? Why should it be remotely controversial to oppose jihad mass murder and the Sharia oppression of women, gays, non-Muslims, etc.? Shouldn’t anyone in his or her […]
Is Jihad Watch a chronicle of the West’s suicide?
Jihad Watch has been tracking jihad activity in the U.S. and around the world, day in and day out for fourteen years. The Jihad Watch archives, which you can access on the right sidebar, are over 60,000 pieces of evidence. Evidence that the warriors of jihad is advancing against non-Muslim nations in Asia, Europe, and […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: The Lasting Benefits of an Independent Kurdistan
First of all, let’s not forget that astonishing vote on September 25; 93% of the Kurds in Iraq went ahead and voted for independence. It was an opinion poll, not binding. But it meant a great deal. That figure cannot be ignored, not even by the U.N. The Kurds have a moral right to such a […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: Iraqi Kurdistan — What Might Independence Mean?
On September 25, the Kurds in northern Iraq held what may be seen as the most welcome event in the Middle East since the Six-Day War: a referendum on independence, for which 93% of the voters (including non-Kurds living in Kurdish areas of Iraq) declared themselves in favor. The Kurds are the largest ethnic group […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: Just How “Afraid” are Muslims at Amherst College?
Out at Amherst, where hope is the thing with feathers, a panel discussion about Islam at the college on September 25 included Michael Graham, a radio host who has, in the past, suffered for his outspokenness about Islam. After the event, Muslim students wrote an “Open Letter,” claiming that Graham had made them “afraid” and […]
