Jihad killing is not “radical” but mainstream in Islam: all the mainstream sects and schools of jurisprudence teach the responsibility of the Muslim community to wage war against and subjugate unbelievers. But Trump is right: in a sane body politic, the denial and willful ignorance about the nature and magnitude of the jihad threat that […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: You Don’t Have To Be Muslim To Love Ramadan
Why is it that Western politicians, including Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and David Cameron, think they must send out messages of such heartfelt solidarity to the world’s Muslims on Ramadan? Of course they send out messages as well for Diwali (Hindus and Buddhists), Passover (Jews), Christmas and Easter (Christians), but not with the suggestion that […]
Hillary Clinton blames San Bernardino jihad attack on “gun lobby”
“‘You here in this beautiful city know the horrors, the losses associated with gun violence are just unimaginable,’ Clinton told about 1,000 attendees, as she vowed to ‘take on the gun lobby.’” Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik were jihad terrorists who had been plotting jihad mass murder for quite some time. Does Hillary Clinton […]
Clinton hits Trump on Muslim ban; Trump: “Ask Hillary who blew up the plane last night”
Says Clinton: “When you run for president of the United States, the entire world is listening and watching. So when you say you’re going to bar all Muslims, you’re sending evidence to the Muslim world, and you’re also sending a message to terrorists. … Donald Trump is essentially being used as a recruiter for more […]
London’s Muslim mayor pledges to help Hillary Clinton beat Donald Trump
“I think what we’ve shown — and I hope it’s a lesson that Hillary and others in America take on board, hope does ‘trump’ fear, forgive the pun.” How absolutely grand. The hard-Left routinely derides those who are concerned about jihad terrorism for their “fear,” as if being afraid of being murdered by Islamic jihadis […]
Robert Spencer in PJ Media: You Need to Know About Tom Perez: Likely Hillary VP Opposes First Amendment
In PJ Media today I discuss the little-known man who has a chance to be President of the United States: Could the next president of the United States be neither Clinton, Trump, Cruz, or Kasich … but Thomas Perez?It’s far more likely than you might think. Even before any candidate definitively secures either party’s presidential […]
Will Reality Trump Fantasy Regarding Muslim Immigration?
Are U.S. presidents charged with protecting American lives or protecting American vanity—especially when the two clash? Put differently, what’s more important: our security or our ability to “feel good” about ourselves? Consider the two leading presidential candidates’ positions on Muslim immigration after the Brussels terror attack. Donald Trump continues “calling for a total and […]
Robert Spencer in PJ Media: Hillary vs. Jihad: A Nightmare Scenario
Over at PJ Media today I discuss how the potential Commander-in-Chief is dangerously divorced from reality. It’s a nightmare that could all too easily come true: the Republican Party denies Donald Trump the nomination, he bolts, and Hillary Clinton, unindicted by a sympathetic Obama Justice Department, becomes president. If she does, it is virtually certain […]
Hillary Clinton: US response to Brussels jihad mass murders must be “consistent with our values”
“It’s unrealistic to say we’re going to completely shut down our borders to everyone. I know that Americans have every reason to be frightened by what they see, we’ve got to work this through, consistent with our values.” Her implication is clear: any response to what is rapidly becoming a state of war in Europe […]
Robert Spencer in FrontPage: The Democrats’ Soft Spot for Islam
Jihad terror? What’s that, you Islamophobe? My latest in FrontPage: The hard-Left online organ Salon has discovered the secret of Donald Trump’s success: “Islamophobia.” Citing the American National Election Studies 2016 pilot survey, Salon solemnly intones that “Trump supporters are far more likely to express Islamophobic attitudes than other respondents, even other Republicans.” A “stunning […]
