Turkey under Recep Tayyip Erdogan has become an enemy of the non-Muslim West, though he is not above calling on support for NATO in his current clashes in Idlib with Syrian and, very likely, Russian forces. Turkey has been one of the countries President Macron is worried about, for half of the “detached imams” who […]

In a landmark speech in the eastern city of Mulhouse, France, Macron said: We must never accept that the laws of religion can be superior to those of the Republic…..Islamist separatism is incompatible with freedom and equality….We are talking about people who, in the name of a religion, are pursuing a political project, that of […]

France: Macron poses in selfie with niqabi who defied French law
Emmanuel Macron has been battling for votes, caught between his globalist instincts and the rising “populist” movement.

To find the ongoing coverage about Mila on Jihad Watch, see HERE.

Turkey’s Erdogan slams France’s Macron for using words “Islam” and “terrorism” together
Islamic supremacists routinely try to force Westerners into believing that violence has nothing to do with Islam, even though the 1400-year connection between the two is as plain as the nose on anyone’s face, and plainly stated doctrines in the Quran and Hadith to back up the connection. It is also well known that not […]
France’s Macron on Turkey: “Sometimes they work with ISIS proxies”
Macron is right about this. Turkey’s support for the Islamic State has long been obvious in numerous ways. Back in 2015, in my book The Complete Infidel’s Guide to ISIS, I noted that Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan was aiding the Islamic State in the ultimate hope of co-opting its caliphate and making it part […]
