Media bias is nothing new. 56 years ago, Richard Nixon complained that he wasn’t being given a fair shake by the media in his presidential campaign against John F. Kennedy. But the media elites, as well as the political elites, are deeply threatened by the candidacy of Donald Trump, in large part because of his […]
Media in frenzy over Trump claim that Obama and Hillary founded ISIS, ignores DIA document showing how they did
Strictly speaking, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi founded the Islamic State (ISIS) as al-Qaeda in Iraq. But it was Obama and Hillary who empowered it and made the decisions that led to it occupying and holding an expanse of territory larger than Great Britain. The media is acting full-on as the Democratic Party’s press agency now, firing […]
Robert Spencer: GOP National Security Leaders ‘Intellectually Bankrupt’ to Attack Trump and Defend Clinton’s ‘Pitiable Record’
The guardians of a failed foreign policy establishment. “Robert Spencer: GOP National Security Leaders ‘Intellectually Bankrupt’ to Attack Trump and Defend Clinton’s ‘Pitiable Record,’” by John Hayward, Breitbart, August 9, 2016: Robert Spencer of Jihad Watch, author of the new book The Complete Infidel’s Guide to Iran, joined SiriusXM host Stephen K. Bannon on Breitbart […]
Donald Trump links to Jihad Watch story on Facebook
It isn’t surprising that Trump would be reading Jihad Watch. The New York Times has said that Jihad Watch is “widely read in conservative foreign policy circles.” The Washington Post has also said that Jihad Watch is “widely read in many quarters in Washington.” What makes this striking is that Trump made no secret of […]
CFR “terrorism theorist” Max Abrahms hits Trump for not distinguishing “law-abiding” Muslims from terrorists
Max Abrahms, who describes himself as “#Terrorism Theorist / Northeastern Prof / Council on Foreign Relations / Center for Cyber & Homeland Security,” is the quintessential establishment foreign policy analyst, a hack fronting policies that have failed again and again and again, and that Abrahms, and the establishment in general, don’t even realize have failed. […]
Robert Spencer in FrontPage: Khizr Khan, Servant of the Global Umma
His son died in service of the U.S. military; now his father is using his memory to advance a different cause. My latest in FrontPage: The mainstream media is wild with enthusiasm these days over Khizr Khan, the father of a Muslim soldier, Humayun Khan, who was killed fighting in Iraq in 2004. Khizr Khan, […]
Father of slain Muslim soldier says that terrorists “have nothing to do with Islam”
Trump is right: “The real problem here are the radical Islamic terrorists who killed” Khizr Khan’s son, but Khizr seems much more worked up about Trump than about jihad terror. And jihad terror has nothing to do with Islam? Really? We constantly are told this, but the repetition doesn’t make it true. In the first […]
Juncker: No matter how bad migrant crisis, jihadi terrorism get, we’ll never give up on open borders
The powerful European Commission President, Jean-Claude Juncker, has vowed that “no matter how bad terrorism or the migrant crisis gets, the European Union will never give up on open borders”. In fact, migration is one of his “top policies”. The severity and absurdity of his words are a provocation to the victims of jihadist terror […]
Trump says ‘this is war’
There are those who still refuse to identify this war on Islamic terror, despite the increasing threats to the safety of the Western public. No matter how many times the Islamic State or Al Qaeda declares the nature of this war of conquest, nothing will convince these leftists that Western nations (and Israel) are engaged in […]
Trump: “Incitement and preaching of hate by the Palestinian leadership…must end immediately”
After seven and a half years of Obama ignoring “Palestinian” incitement and pressuring Israel to make disastrous concessions to the “Palestinian” jihadis, this is most refreshing. The “Palestinian” airwaves are filled with genocidal incitement on a constant basis. Yet few American politicians have ever been willing to point to this as a source of the […]
