A CNN photo editor has resigned after anti-Semitic tweets he sent in 2011 surfaced, including one in which he mentioned “Jewish pigs” killed in a terror attack in Jerusalem, according to reports. Mohammed Elshamy, 25, a former photojournalist with the Turkish Anadolu news agency, quit late Thursday after an employee of Israel’s Government Press Office flagged some of his offensive tweets, the Times of Israel reported.

A senior member of Gaza's Islamist rulers Hamas has encouraged Palestinians across the globe to kill Jews, drawing outrage from both Israeli and Palestinian officials as well as a UN envoy. In video from a speech to participants of weekly protests on Friday, Fathi Hamad, a member of the movement's top political body, can be seen calling on Palestinian Arabs across the globe to carry out attacks. "If this siege is not undone, we will explode in the face of our enemies, with God's permission. The explosion is not only going to be in Gaza but also in the West...

Shocking footage uncovered by the Investigative Project last week shows a skit produced by the Muslim American Society (MAS) in Philadelphia showing children calling for martyrdom as soldiers in the “army of Allah” and threatening to behead their enemies and subject them to “eternal torture” to wrest Jerusalem from Jewish control. The horrific MAS-Philly children’s skit was posted to their Facebook page and shows a choreographed production as part of the group’s April 17th “Ummah Day” pageant dedicated to supporting jihad to control Palestine. A MAS statement on Friday said the songs and poems the children recited exhorting violence and...

On April 22, 2019, the Muslim American Society Islamic Center in Philadelphia (MAS Philly) uploaded a video of an "Ummah Day" celebration to its Facebook page in which young children wearing Palestinian scarves sang: "Glorious steeds call us and lead us [to] the Al-Aqsa Mosque. The blood of martyrs protects us... Take us, oh ships... until we reach our shores and crush the treacherous ones... Flow, oh rivers of martyrs!" A young girl read a poem praising martyrs who sacrificed their lives for Palestine, and she asked: "Will [Jerusalem] be a hotbed for cowards?" Another young girl read: "We will...

Yesterday, we posted a video of little kids singing in anIslamic Center in Philadelphia. The children sang about chopping off the heads of infidels and destroying Jerusalem. The teachers, who were attired in traditional Muslim garb, appeared content with the results of all those rehearsals. Unfortunately, people found out! That posed a dilemma for the ‘religious’ group functioning right in the middle of the National Constitution Center. The Muslim-American Society had a great excuse though. They said it was a mistake — poor vetting — but rest assured they will investigate! They said in a statement: “While we celebrate the coming...

Hoda Muthana used Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, and Ask.fm to spread the very messages ISIS used to inspire violence against America. I've been tracking her posts for years. I started texting with Hoda Muthana April 5, 2015, when she was 20 and I was 26. We were talking on Kik, a messaging service mostly used by dating app users looking to hook up -- and jihadis looking to communicate. Muthana's first question was how I'd found her. "I'm a journalist," I told her. "I do my job well." "No ur not," she replied. "Don't get a big head." So I proved...

Canada: Taxpayer-funded CBC puts jihad murderer Omar Khadr on its Easter Sunday show Canadian pundit Spencer Fernando calls this “disgusting,” and it is, but it is no surprise. It has been clear for years which side the establishment media is on. It is not on the side of the people in the nations where it operates. It is not on the side of the victims or foes of jihad terror. It would have been far more surprising if the CBC had featured someone who stands up against jihad terror and Sharia oppression of women and others. But if it had...

Turkey has been a mess for years under the increasingly despotic and incompetent leadership of Turkish President Erdogan. The economy has been declining and suffering major problems with inflation and a decline in the value of the local currency, the lira, and Erdogan has launched increasingly vicious crackdowns on the opposition while breaking ties with former allies like the United States. The Turkish people have finally gotten sick of this, and Erdogan’s party suffered a major electoral defeat last week in several major Turkish cities. Erdogan responded to his defeats about as well as you’d expect, and throwing around hysterical...

A Maryland man inspired by the Islamic State group plotted to ram a stolen U-Haul truck into as many pedestrians as possible at a popular convention and tourist destination just outside the nation's capital, federal prosecutors said Monday. The allegation was made in a court filing as prosecutors in Maryland urged a judge to keep the defendant, 28-year-old Rondell Henry, detained on a charge of driving a stolen vehicle across state lines. The police arrested him on March 28 after officers who discovered the stolen truck saw him leap over a security fence. The government's six-page detention motion describes Henry...

Back in 2015, a new M.P. from Streatham was among those running to replace Ed Miliband as leader of the Labour Party in Great Britain. This was Chuka Umunna, who suddenly pulled out, explaining that he didn’t want to put his wife through the ordeal of the campaign and his possible win. He worried, he said, about her loss of privacy. He was also 36 at the time, and may have felt unready; he knew he had plenty of time to prepare for a run. As it happens, the Labour Party then elected, by a landslide, the far-left ideologue Jeremy...

Why I converted to Islam – Roman Catholic priestPublished on The autobiography of a Roman Catholic priest, Idris Tawfiq, who became a Muslim about 15 years ago, has emerged online. Tawfiq was reported to have died after a period of illness on February 3, 2016 in the United Kingdom, UK but before his death, he had written his experience on how he converted to the ‘religion of peace.’ Although the reason for releasing this on the same day, one year after he died cannot be ascertained, ‘AboutIslam’ is reporting that until his death, he was head of religious education in...

A letter to the mother from the Home Office said officials had issued an order depriving daughter of her British citizenship. A copy of the note, published by ITV News, reads: "Please find enclosed papers that relate to a decision taken by the Home Secretary, to deprive your daughter, Shamima, of her British citizenship. In light of the circumstances of your daughter, the notice of the Home Secretary’s decision has been served on file today (19th February), and the order moving her British citizenship has subsequently been made.” The lawyer for the family said: ..."Family are very disappointed with the...

Say, remember when the news media wouldn’t stop demanding Donald Trump disavow David Duke even though Donald Trump repeatedly disavowed David Duke? I wonder how they’re going to feel about David Duke rushing to Ilhan Omar’s defense this morning. After Nikki Haley called out Omar’s latest foray into anti-Semitism, David Duke was there to provide air cover. Anti-Semitic birds of a feather … I’d say that Duke must be Ilhan’s brother from another mother. But then she’d probably try to marry him. Listen, the party that most aligns with the raging anti-Semitism Duke burps out on a regular basis was...

– As the Women’s March continues to suffer defections over its leaders’ associations with Louis Farrakhan, the controversial preacher’s Nation of Islam has been hitting back, accusing “Jewish and white women” of trying to undermine the movement ahead of its planned march this weekend. In racially-charged columns, the Nation of Islam organ The Final Call has been slamming prominent critics who have raised concerns about anti-Semitism and called on the Women’s March leaders to resign. In doing so, the writers have accused “white women,” among other things, of supporting the oppression of blacks, and of historical complicity in rapes and...

If you just pulled your PPH (pink pussy hat) out of storage in anticipation of next month’s “Women’s March” in either Chicago or San Francisco you might want to make other plans. Both cities have cancelled their planned marches, for somewhat different reasons. What do you mean there will be no gathering of pink pussy brains this year to protest the patriarchy?Chicago organizers cited “logistical issues” but as board member Sara Kurensky conceded, to “further distance the Chicago group from national Women’s March leaders” was an additional “side benefit.” Why? …infighting across the national Women’s March movement arose after Nation...

Full title: Pope: Christians murdered by Muslims are testament to God’s plan for peaceful coexistence of Christians and Muslims. “The lives of 19 religious men and women martyred during the Algerian civil war are a testament to God’s plan of love and peaceful coexistence between Christians and Muslims, Pope Francis said.” A more serious analyst would note that they were, after all, murdered, so they might not be that great a testimony to peaceful coexistence between Christians and Muslims. But this is the Pope who has said that “Muslim terrorism does not exist.”

Original title: Man Faces Hate Crime Charge After Yelling Out Slurs, Trying to Hit Congregants With Car Outside Hancock Park Synagogue: LAPD A man is facing a hate crime charge after allegedly yelling out anti-Semitic slurs and trying to hit Jewish congregants with his vehicle outside a Hancock Park synagogue over the weekend, Los Angeles Police Department officials announced Monday.

The youngest woman convicted of plotting a terror attack on British soil has been jailed for life with a minimum of 13 years. Safaa Boular, 18, became the final member of Britain’s first all-woman terror cell to be imprisoned when Judge Mark Dennis QC sentenced her at the Old Bailey on Friday. She hid her Islamic State-inspired plans in coded conversations about preparations for an innocent Mad Hatter’s tea party after being seduced online by a jihadi fighter while sitting her GCSEs. Sorry, this content isn't available on your device. It appeared she knew what she was doing and acted...

On the corner couch of a spacious room, a woman wearing a brightly patterned robe sits expectantly. The red hijab that covers her hair is reflected in a glass-fronted cabinet; inside, a framed photograph of her firstborn son takes pride of place between family heirlooms and valuables. A smiling, bearded figure wearing a military jacket, he features in photographs around the room: propped against the wall at her feet, resting on a mantlepiece. A supper of Saudi meze and a lemon cheesecake has been spread out on a large wooden dining table. Alia Ghanem is Osama bin Laden’s mother, and...

A Houston business owner was arrested Tuesday after he allegedly hired a hitman to kill a police officer who gave him too many nuisance tickets. In an elaborate ruse, police played along with the scheme and went so far as to fake the officer's death before arresting 47-year-old Mohammed Mohamed and charging him with solicitation of capital murder, Chief Art Acevedo said Tuesday.
