Over at Aleteia today I discuss the latest developments in the abduction of the Nigerian schoolgirls by the jihad group Boko Haram: Nigerian Air Marshal Alex Badeh announced Monday that the Nigerian military had discovered the location of the nearly 300 girls abducted by the jihadist group Boko Haram. However, he said there were no […]

Islam: ‘Appalling and Abhorrent’ in the Eyes of a Blind World?
A few days ago in Sudan, an eight-month pregnant wife and mother was sentenced to death by hanging for refusing to renounce Christ and embrace Islam. According to the LA Times: Meriam Yehya Ibrahim, who has a young son and is married to a Christian from South Sudan, violated Islamic sharia law, the court said. She […]
Obama backs off drone strikes
There go the last vestiges of any serious counterterror effort from the Obama Administration. Islamic supremacists and Leftist jihad enablers have been pressuring him for years to do this, and have heaped all kinds of outlandish abuse upon him for not jumping immediately to do their bidding. Most outlandishly of all, this most Islamophilic of […]
New York Times wrings its hands over NYPD still “singling out” Muslims
“As a former police sergeant who worked with the squad said: ‘We are there to collect intelligence about criminal activity or terrorism. Why are we asking, “Are you Muslim?” “What mosque do you go to?” What does that have to do with terrorism?’” The Times, of course, leaves that out there as a rhetorical question, […]
Memorial Day 2014: Remembrance and resolve
It has already been a busy Memorial Day weekend. Stories reported at Jihad Watch over the last two days: Tunisia: Muslim screaming “The nation of Muhammad returns for vengeance” stabs Jew, is released That was Saturday. Sharia Egypt: Christian gets four years prison, $1400 fine for insulting Islam by drawing cartoon of Muhammad on Facebook […]
Robert Spencer in PJ Media: 5 New Hashtags for Michelle Obama
Over at PJ Media I offer my contribution to the New Diplomatic Style: Michelle Obama’s #BringBackOurGirls hashtag, although taken up among the glitterati, has been ridiculed as emblematic of her husband’s weakness and lack of will in the face of Islamic jihad. This is, however, unfair not only to Mrs. Obama, but to Sylvester Stallone, […]
Yemen: Islamic jihadists murder at least 27 people in raid on city
Islamic jihadists are able to operate with relative impunity in Nigeria, Somalia, and, apparently, Yemen. They could only do this if they enjoyed friends and supporters in high places — people who believe that what they’re doing in the name of Islam is good and right. “Al-Qaeda gunmen storm Yemeni city; 27 killed,” by Mohammed […]
State Dept promotes Muslim cleric who backed fatwa on “killing of U.S. soldiers”
Here is yet another sign of how deeply entrenched willful ignorance and fantasy-based policymaking are in Washington. Bin Bayyah condemned Boko Haram, so the Counter Terrorism Bureau promotes his website. They are either ignorant of or indifferent to the fact that he supported jihad attacks on U.S. soldiers. And given the atmosphere of the Obama […]
Muslim Congressmen and leaders to Boko Haram: “You have truly strayed from Islam”
Representatives Keith Ellison (D-MN) and André Carson (D-IN), the nation’s two Muslim Congressmen, and a host of Muslim leaders, many with ties to Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood, have published an open letter condemning Boko Haram, the Party of the People of the Sunnah for Dawah and Jihad, as un-Islamic, and calling upon the group’s leader, […]
Afghanistan: Islamic jihadists murder 16 policemen in 24 hours, beheading eight of them
“When you meet the unbelievers, strike at their necks…” (Qur’an 47:4). The Taliban consider the Afghan police to be unbelievers because they are, as part of the Karzai regime, collaborating with the U.S. Just as in Nigeria, the Islamic jihadists in Afghanistan are operating with impunity, killing their enemies wholesale while the central government is […]
