My latest in PJ Media: I’ve been writing about the ills of jihad violence and Sharia-inspired oppression of women and others for nearly two decades now, so imagine my surprise when I woke up one morning to find myself guilty of inspiring a jihad attack. Yes, as far-fetched as it sounds, Lizzie Dearden of the […]
Independent claims Muslim who attacked cops with sword was inspired by Tommy Robinson, David Wood, Robert Spencer
Lizzie Dearden of the Independent details here how jihad terrorist Mohiusunnath Chowdhury, whose hate and bloodlust we have covered a great deal here at Jihad Watch, says he learned from Tommy Robinson, David Wood and me. In this, Dearden echoes Chowdhury’s prosecutor, Duncan Atkinson, whose claim that Chowdhury was inspired by Robinson we reported yesterday. […]
UK: Independent’s Lizzie Dearden whitewashes Islamic identity of Muslim rape gang
What makes this all the more extraordinary is that Dearden’s story is about how the Home Office knew about the Muslim rape gang activity in Rotherham as far back as 2002, but did nothing for decade, apparently for fear of being charged with “racism,” even though Islam is not a race (as fewer and fewer […]
The Free Tommy demo and the Muslim bus driver
Saturday’s Free Tommy Robinson rally in Whitehall in London was another heavily attended get-together. The speakers weren’t as bombastic, flamboyant, or as well-known as speakers from previous events, but you can’t have the same people all of the time. People have busy diaries and schedules, and it’s a good thing that the organizers are bringing […]
News From Mexico: “A Vibrant Muslim Community”
A new report in The Independent on a small group of Muslim converts in San Cristobal de las Casas, gives itself away with its title: “Mexico’s Vibrant Muslim Community Lives in the Maya Heartland”: A trip to Mexico’s indigenous Maya heartland showed me how a vibrant Muslim community had sprung up in this predominantly Roman […]
UK: Muslim leader fears anti-Muslim “backlash” after Muslim rape gang conviction
“It’s not a ‘Muslim issue’ but they are mostly Muslims. So are Isis – they might not represent what Islam says but you can’t deny they’re Muslims.” Ahad is ignoring the massive justification for this behavior within the Qur’an and Sunnah, as I detail here. This makes it overwhelmingly likely that he and his colleagues […]
UK’s Independent pleads that nothing be done to stop jihad terror after Manchester massacre
“We’re not actually equipped to do that much at all, other than to try to carry on, to not allow ourselves to be terrorised, to stop living our lives.” In reality, there is plenty that we can do. We can stop lying to ourselves and to each other about what is happening and why. We […]
Robert Spencer in FrontPage: UK’s Independent: ‘Allahu Akbar’ Is A Publicity Stunt, Not Jihad
The media’s never-ending quest to exonerate Islam grows even more farfetched. My latest in FrontPage: Andrew MacLeod is a “visiting Professor at Kings College London and a former UN and Red Cross official who served in countries like Rwanda, Yugoslavia, Pakistan, Afghanistan and others.” What sloppy writing. What countries are like Rwanda, Yugoslavia, Pakistan, and […]
Independent: Muslim killers scream “Allahu akbar” to get publicity, not because they’re jihadis
Andrew MacLeod is a “visiting Professor at Kings College London and a former UN and Red Cross official who served in countries like Rwanda, Yugoslavia, Pakistan, Afghanistan and others.” What sloppy writing. What countries are like Rwanda, Yugoslavia, Pakistan, and Afghanistan? “He has negotiated with warlords and terrorists.” He explains here that a Muslim who […]
Independent: UK converts to Islam face suspicion and prejudice
This piece from February is yet another in a seemingly endless series of articles designed to make non-Muslims feel guilty about being suspicious of Islam. The full-length piece features a series of converts to Islam telling their sad stories of how they supposedly faced prejudice — in Britain, where Islam is chic and pandered to […]
