He had a history of violence and sexual abuse of women -- almost as if he grew up in a culture that revered violence and thought of non-Muslim women as "uncovered meat." He posted admiration for al-Baghdadi and Khamenei and a call for Muslims to repeat "SubhanAllah" multiple times. Maybe he wasn't a jihadi and there is some mitigating explanation for all of this. When authorities refuse to discuss it and appear to dismiss it out of hand, however, it only reinforces the impression that there is some deliberate effort to cover up jihad attacks -- an impression that authorities...

NEWS 9/11 memorial stirs debate over 'Islamic terrorists' Two words on this 9/11 memorial are stirring a major debate (KTRK) Thursday, September 01, 2016 07:48AM OWEGO, NY (KTRK) -- Two words included on a memorial to victims of the 9-11 terror attacks are now stirring a major debate in New York. A group is taking issue with the words "Islamic terrorists" as they appear on the monument in Owego. The Islamic Organization of the Southern Tier worries the wording could encourage hatred towards Muslims living in the city, painting all Muslims with the same brush, they say.

Britain’s leading Islamofascist agitator Anjem Choudary Britain’s leading Islamofascist agitator Anjem Choudary could go to prison for a decade because he has been convicted of supporting Islamic State (a.k.a. Daesh, ISIS, ISIL). Unfortunately the United Kingdom abolished the death penalty in 1998. Breitbart News reports Choudary was convicted at the Old Bailey after jurors heard that he had sworn allegiance to the terrorist group, and urged his followers to do the same in a series of videos broadcast via YouTube.

The Islamic State has confirmed repeatedly that it intends to conquer Europe. In doing this — it is also no secret — it intends to infiltrate the most important structures. So why is it that the Federal Employment Agency is aiding and abetting the efforts of the IS by its actions as a jobs broker? By 2020, Europe will be ungovernable. The CIA predicted that years ago on the basis of various developments. One of the reasons for that is the cave-in to Islamization and the welcoming culture for Islamic fighters, who have, for months now, been unhindered in their...

In December 1997, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the current Turkish president but at the time the mayor of Istanbul, recited a famous poem by Turkish nationalist poet Ziya Gökalp during a speech in the eastern Turkish city of Siirt. One line read: “The minarets are our bayonets, the domes our helmets, the mosques our barracks, and the faithful our soldiers.” At a time when Turkey’s strictly secular military still held sway over Turkish politics, the militarized reference to Islam was interpreted as a threat to the secular order established by modern Turkey’s founder, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. Erdogan was arrested, sentenced to...

Reflections on the cross-section of crime, war, and public policy... Loudly, clearly, proudly, the Obama administration has declared its solidarity with the immigrant wave from the middle east. Throughout Barack Obama’s two terms – while the United States were at war, trying to stabilize Iraq and Afghanistan, even while he himself started a war against Libya and approved military actions in other countries in the region – the Obama administration has continuously facilitated the immigration of “refugees” from that dangerous, alien territory. We have watched the waves lap up onto our shores, depositing middle easterners in ever greater numbers –...

I noticed on Thursday, one Khizr Khan is going to speak before the former White House dog Chelsea speaks. Why does this party embrace Muslimism even tho Muslims wanna kill those the Democrat Party claims to protect, like gays, atheists, women, etc?? Now, we've seen the story of what Tim Kaine hired a decade ago, a virulent Islamist and Israel-hater (tho both are really the same thing). I'd bet this Khan character is similar. I think something is going on...let's look into it.

Remember when Trump first mentioned a temporary pause in immigration until a proper vetting process could be created? Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself) said such language would ENFLAME rage among Muslims. But the released transcripts of the calls and the testimony of survivors of the terror attack show NO MENTION OF DONALD TRUMP. Amazingly, though, we are told he was angry that the current administration was bombing his "people". And an article in the WASHINGTON POST (written by someone who knew the killer) said he supported HILLARY.

The father of Orlando mass shooter Omar Mateen has longstanding connections to prominent Islamist groups in the U.S., a document discovered by the Investigative Project on Terrorism shows. Seddique Matin is listed as president of a then-new American Muslim Alliance (AMA) chapter in Fort Pierce in a July 1997 announcement archived by the IPT.The AMA sponsored several radical conferences in the U.S. and its leader, Agha Saeed, has spoken in defense of convicted terrorists, including Aafia Siddiqui (a.k.a "Lady al-Qaida"), Palestinian Islamic Jihad board member Sami Al-Arian, and Pakistani intelligence lobbyist Ghulam Nabi Fai.The Fort Pierce chapter is among 10...

ONE day after Omar Mateen opened fire inside a gay nightclub in Orlando, killing 49 people and injuring 53 others, President Barack Obama has said it appears that the shooter was inspired by various extremist information that was being distributed on the internet.Speaking from the White House, Obama also said there was no clear evidence that the gunman, Omar Mateen, was directed through someone else and “no direct evidence that he was part of a larger plot”. As America reels from the aftermath of the massacre in Florida, the identities of the shooter’s victims are being revealed.

Witnesses are reporting gunfire and explosions in the Paris suburb commune of Magnanville. French special police have surrounded a house where a man is holding hostages. The attacker stabbed the home owner, a police officer who was reportedly his neighbor.

In a surprising discovery, the Palm Beach Post first reported that according to state records, Orlando shooter Omar Mateen - who as we reported earlier was licensed as a security guard and also holds a firearms license - was employed by the US subsidiary of G4S plc, a British multinational security services company, whose US-headquarters are located in Jupiter, Fla, and which also happens to be the world's largest security company by revenue.

Omar Mateen, who several years ago changed his name Omar Mir Seddique and added the Mateen part to his official name, is now said to have pledged allegiance to ISIS... Some more details on the alleged shooter as disclosed on Find the Data, disclose that he was a registered Democrat in the 18th Congressional District.

German police Thursday arrested two teenagers with Islamist backgrounds over an explosion that wounded three people at a Sikh temple, labeling it a "terrorist attack". The blast that hit an Indian wedding party at the entrance to the temple in the western city of Essen last Saturday injured three men, one of them seriously. Police arrested two 16-year-olds with known links to regional Islamists over the attack, said city police chief Frank Richter. "We have to presume it was a terrorist act -- religiously motivated terror by the Islamist scene," Richter said in a statement, without linking the youths to...

Hundreds of Islamists considered capable of committing “significant offences” are walking free in Germany without surveillance because of a lack of resources, making observation impossible. The radical Islamist “scene” in Germany, which has been described as “rapidly growing” now encompasses some 447 individuals considered highly dangerous, in addition to 1,100 other potential terrorists, over 7,000 radical Salafist Muslims, and hundreds of other individuals who have returned from Syria with combat experience. The number of so called highly dangerous men is up from just 120 a couple of years ago, has nearly doubled in the past twelve months, and is highly...

Two assailants armed with pistols and cleavers attacked Jogeswar Roy, 45, the head priest of Sri Sri Sant Gourio Math, at his home in the temple on Sunday morning, officials said.
