"He has a keen interest in Islamic culture and faith and has shown capacity to contribute to our psychological understanding of Islamic nationalism and how it may relate to events of national security and Army interest in the Middle East and Asia." He did indeed contribute to "our psychological...

Political Islam is not dead, contrary to the overconfident predictions of those who not too long ago were denying its very existence and claiming that the Muslim Brotherhood was, in James Clapper's words, "largely secular," or at least "moderate." "Egyptian Salafist Nour Party to 'protect Islamic identity' in new constitution,"...

Whether or not Mohamud is sincere in his remorse, his declarations here give the lie to his defense team's claims that he was entrapped by the FBI. "Man convicted in Portland bomb plot apologizes," from the Associated Press, August 24: PORTLAND (AP) — A young Somali-American man convicted of...

Remember: in our Orwellian age, the problem is not the ideology behind these murders. The problem is those who look into the ideology behind these murders. "Bloody Sunday: Insurgent attacks in Iraq kill at least 41," by Sinan Salaheddin for The Associated Press, August 25 (thanks to Kenneth): BAGHDAD —...

And failing: "Sometimes during Friday prayers, the sheikh wants to push people to support the Muslim Brotherhood, but modern Muslims are dominant and not deceived anymore with fake words that defending the Muslim Brotherhood is defending Islam." "Muslim Brotherhood's bid to scapegoat Christians failing, say Egyptians," by Lisa Daftari for...

"The committee opted to change Article 6 to impose an outright ban on the formation of political parties based on religion or on mixing religion with politics." So while judges in U.S. courts keep striking down anti-Sharia laws, in Egypt it is apparently not "racist" or "bigoted" to act against...
