Obama condemns Egypt church attack without naming perpetrators, says Muslims were injured also
“The perpetrators of this attack” — who were they, Mr. President? Christian extremists? Tea party types? “The attack on a church in Alexandria, Egypt caused 21 reported deaths and dozens of injured from both the Christian and Muslim communities.” Yet he admits that “the perpetrators of this attack were clearly targeting Christian worshipers,” so why […]
This just in: poverty doesn’t cause jihad terrorism
The U.S. has spent and will continue to spend billions on the assumption that poverty causes jihad terrorism, but again and again over the years we have posted studies that show that jihadis are generally better educated and wealthier than their peers. Here is yet more evidence. The Economist, of course, doesn’t dare consider how […]
Malaysian colleges hotbeds for jihad recruiting
Now wait a minute. I thought that jihad terrorism was a product of poverty and ignorance of the true, peaceful teachings of Islam. Don’t these universities in a country that is overwhelmingly Muslim teach any courses about Islam? Isn’t education supposed to be a hedge against “radicalization”? Or maybe what the learned analysts tell us […]

Merry Christmas to all Christian Jihad Watchers
The Byzantine icon above is the work of the 16th-century iconographer Theophanes the Cretan. Many Muslims around the world today would consider it offensive and insulting to Islam.

“Your [Christmas] fireworks will act as an alarm for the time of our devices to blow up — devices that we, not Santa Claus, are going to offer to you as gifts, to turn your night into day and your blood into rivers”
For the Islamic jihadist, Christmas is evil, but mass murder isn’t. “Yule ghouls’ jingle bombs,” from AFP, December 25: WASHINGTON — An Islamic extremist has threatened in an audiotaped message to set off bombs in countries celebrating Christmas. “Your [Christmas] fireworks will act as an alarm for the time of our devices to blow up […]
Saudi Arabia: Indian doctor cleared of charges of murdering husband after he secretly converted to Islam
Ashish Chawla died suddenly. Then Saudi authorities charged his wife Shalini with murdering him after he became a Muslim, even though an autopsy showed no sign that he had been murdered at all.

December 7, 1950
Nine years after Pearl Harbor, World War II had been over for five years. The nation was strong and confident in the face of the Cold War threat from the Soviets, and was in the process of magnanimously helping Germany and Japan rebuild. Nine years after 9/11, and we are barely even at square one. […]
Majority of Muslims worldwide misunderstand Islam, want Islam in politics
When Oklahoma passed its anti-Sharia law, Muslims in the U.S. indignantly characterized as “Islamophobic” the notion that they would ever, ever, under any circumstances at any time, want to bring Islamic law to this country. Islamic supremacist pseudo-moderate Reza Aslan has claimed falsely that “no American Muslim, zero, absolutely none, not a single one has […]
