JIHAD WATCH 05/25/2014

Surely Muslim leaders in the West who know that Islam preaches peace and tolerance are jetting to Somalia right now, in order to explain to the leaders of Al Shabab that jihad is peaceful and benign, and that Islam respects Christians as the People of the Book, and that jihadists would never attack churches. Aren’t […]

“A car bomb outside an alcohol shop in an ethnically-mixed northern Iraqi city has killed at least seven people.” Why did it do it? What crazy idea did the car bomb get into its head that made it want to murder people in an ethnically mixed northern Iraqi city? Or was their someone who actually […]

Islamic jihadists are apparently able to operate with complete impunity in Nigeria, with government and law enforcement officials either unable to stop them or, because they share their worldview, unwilling to do so. “Officials: Another explosion in Jos, Nigeria,” Associated Press, May 24, 2014: JOS, Nigeria (AP) — A bungled bomb killed three people, including […]

Jihad against 7/11. But fear not: no “Islamophobia” was committed. “Bomb blasts in Thailand’s restive deep south kill three, hurt dozens ,” Associated Press, May 24, 2014: AT LEAST three people have been killed and 55 injured in a spate of bombing attacks in crisis-wracked Thailand’s deep south, where an Islamic insurgency has raged for […]

Note yet again the lack of any acting agent in the PTI report: whenever Islamic jihadists are the perpetrators, the mainstream media does its best to obscure that fact by removing all mention of who actually did the deed. And so we hear that seven were killed in blasts, but not who set them off. […]

Islamic jihadists are able to operate with relative impunity in Nigeria, Somalia, and, apparently, Yemen. They could only do this if they enjoyed friends and supporters in high places — people who believe that what they’re doing in the name of Islam is good and right. “Al-Qaeda gunmen storm Yemeni city; 27 killed,” by Mohammed […]

Why aren’t all the Muslim spokesmen in the West, who claim that Islam has no death penalty for apostasy, such as Harris Zafar, Mustafa Akyol, Salam al-Marayati, M. Cherif Bassiouni, and Ali Eteraz (among many others), jetting to Khartoum now to explain to Sudanese authorities that they are misunderstanders of Islam and must release Meriam […]

“The enemy can now access everywhere,” said MP Mohamed Nor. In Somalia as in Nigeria, the Islamic jihadists can apparently strike at will, with the government powerless to stop them. Another similarity between these two countries is that al-Shabab, like Boko Haram, is an avowedly Islamic group that proudly and unapologetically explains its motives and […]

The Egyptian government is moving against the Muslim Brotherhood, but that doesn’t mean that it is jettisoning all vestiges of Sharia and adopting the freedom of speech that is a hallmark of a free and pluralistic society. Even as Sharia is not fully enforced, its provisions are known and respected by millions of Egyptians, resulting […]

He was released after a Muslim mob arrived at the police station and threatened to burn it down. Clearly they thought that the idea of a Muslim being charged for stabbing a Jew was offensive and unacceptable. But remember: to point out how deeply embedded anti-Semitism is in Islamic teaching and culture is “Islamophobic.” “Masked […]
