JIHAD WATCH
Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts
FBI, DHS issue bulletin for law enforcement warning of lone wolf domestic terrorism
This bulletin seems a bit tardy, as there has already been lone wolf domestic terrorism recently — the axe-wielding jihadist in New York City, the Oklahoma City beheader, and more. But of course, it isn’t about jihadis at all. The FBI and DHS aren’t warning about lone wolf Islamic jihadists — rather, they’re concerned about […]
Indonesian province to expand Sharia law
What could possibly go wrong? “In the latest of public whippings in Aceh, a prosecutor on December 5 took a cane to six family members who each received five to eight lashes for playing poker for money at a coffee shop. Such floggings have significantly increased recently in Aceh province, not only for gambling, but […]
Robert Spencer in FrontPage: Imam Joe Biden Schools an Infidel
In FrontPage I discuss the latest absurdity from Joe Biden: The courageous ex-Muslim human rights activist Ayaan Hirsi Ali recently recounted that at a speech in Washington not long ago, she met Vice President Joe Biden. Biden seized the opportunity to tell her that “ISIS had nothing to do with Islam.” Hirsi Ali politely disagreed, whereupon Biden […]
Islamic State: Shopkeepers must cut wifi during prayer times
The Islamic State, as is common for Islamic supremacists, is here enforcing piety at the point of a sword — which means that the result is not real piety and real virtue, but an empire of fear that will collapse as soon as the sword-point can somehow be evaded. “Islamic State orders wifi cut during […]

Whitney in the New York Times, May 23, 1989: TONDON [sic], May 22 — The musician known as Cat Stevens said in a British television […]
Indian manufacturing exec ran the most influential Islamic State Twitter account
Britain’s Channel 4 is credited in this report with revealing this man’s identity, but it didn’t actually name him. In any case, here is yet another blow for the common assumption that poverty causes terrorism and will be cured by transfers of money to populations likely to produce terrorists: Mehdi Masroor Biswas was a prosperous […]
Madrid’s largest mosque was jihad recruitment center led by ex-Gitmo prisoner
A mosque? What? A center of peaceful worship in accord with the peaceful Qur’an of the Religion of Peace? How could this be? Why didn’t the vast majority of peaceful Muslims rise up and throw out these misunderstanders of Islam who were busy twisting and hijacking their peaceful religion? “Madrid mosque was used to recruit […]
Syria: Islamic jihadists using UN cars for jihad terror operations
The UN has denounced this. On the other hand, the UN denounced the storage of Hamas jihad rockets in its Gaza schools, but did nothing to stop it, and even gave the rockets back to Hamas after they were found. The UN is a disgrace and should not be funded by American taxpayers (or anyone […]
Taliban: Malala “a soldier against Islamic society and teachings of Islam”
Malala has donated $50,000 to UN schools in Gaza that are tools of Hamas, so it is the Taliban’s anger at Malala is short-sighted. In Gaza, she is effectively aiding the same cause for which they are fighting. “Taliban slams Malala over Nobel prize, calls her ‘soldier against Islam,’” AFP, December 12, 2014: The Pakistani […]
