The Islamic Republic continues to try to frighten people into submission. This is the only tool they’ve got, as per the Qur’an: “Make ready for them all that you can of force and of warhorses, so that by them you may strike terror in the enemy of Allah and your enemy…” (Qur’an 8:60) “Iran Vows […]
Ebrahim Raisi, the president of Iran known best for his bloody past as a hanging judge, responsible for the deaths of thousands of Iranian dissidents, recently spoke by telephone to the Butcher of Damascus, President Bashar Al-Assad. More on the conversation can be found here: “Global Winds Blowing Away from ‘Arrogance, Zionism,’ Raisi Tells Assad,” […]
French President Emmanuel Macron doesn’t want to “follow America” into a war with China over Taiwan, and has said that “Europe needs its ‘strategic autonomy’ from the United States, including potentially its dependence on the dollar.” Of course, Macron is looking out for himself, but even so, France would benefit from his proposals. This is […]
I hesitated quite a bit whether to publish the things that appear below because of the panic they might cause in Israel. However, in the Middle East environment and particularly in Iraq, these things are known and serve as a topic of open discussion among quite a few, so it is unthinkable that the Israeli […]
Michael’s Family Restaurant in Glenside, Pennsylvania has been receiving death threats all day. Hundreds of threatening phone calls have reduced the owner’s mother to tears, and the restaurant is pleading for people to see reason. This all stems from a manager who sent a waitress home when she would not remove her hijab. Michael’s Family […]
Last month, Iran’s judiciary chief reiterated that “removing one’s hijab is equivalent to showing enmity to the Islamic Republic,” and then instituted a new law to fine women 2.5 billion rials ($60,000) for flouting hijab rules. It’s all part of the Islamic Republic’s adherence to the Sharia, as it ramps up efforts even further to counter protests: […]
With the exception of the willfully blind, most people understand that the Palestinian “resistance” is a euphemism for efforts to obliterate of Israel from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea. This is also clear from the repeated chants: “From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free.” Now that Israel is undergoing internal […]
Khamenei sees the end of Israel in its political instability. Actually, whatever else it is, that instability is a manifestation of general confidence and the lessening of the idea among Israelis that the country is in imminent danger of being destroyed. There is no doubt, however, that the instability is also encouraging and emboldening Israel’s […]
Police received twenty reports about this fellow before he was arrested. Why was anyone concerned? The establishment media a few years ago made a full-court press to convince Americans that “Allahu akbar” was a benign phrase that only greasy Islamophobes could possibly be concerned about. In the New York Daily News, Zainab Chaudry of the Hamas-linked […]
Not that this has anything to do with… “Carcassonne. ‘I swear on the Koran and the baby I lost because of you!,'” translated from “Carcassonne. “Je vous jure sur le Coran et le bébé que j’ai perdu à cause de vous !”,” La Depeche, April 7, 2023 (thanks to Medforth): Yesterday afternoon, an 18-year-old young […]

San Francisco State University (SFSU) was just in the headlines for allowing fascist proponents of trans madness to chase and […]
New in PJ Media: As PJM’s Rick Moran reported Friday, “the scene at San Francisco State University [SFSU] was surreal. A champion female athlete speaking about maintaining the integrity of women’s sports was shouted down, assaulted, and chased from a speaking engagement sponsored by Turning Point USA.” But that was just the beginning of the surrealism. After […]
In reality, all manner of Sharia-adherent Muslims are coming to Europe, and Europeans are bending over backwards to accommodate them. “Afghan Islamic Scholar Khalifa Deen Mohammad: Muslim Refugees In Europe Are Only Granted Asylum If They Conceal Their Faith, Have Sex With Women Sent By The Government To Test Them,” MEMRI, March 23, 2023: Afghan […]
One would think that in light of the constant Islamic rhetoric relating to the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, that there would be an office in the State Department dedicated to understanding Islam and how Islamic teaching relates to the Muslim animus against Israel. One would think wrong. There isn’t even one person in the State Department who […]
“Dangerous territory that could trigger an Israeli military strike” When lefty administrations go after conservative Israeli governments, it’s often because they’re carrying out a preemptive strike on policy that the Israelis would otherwise oppose. The ‘New Middle East’ and the Iran Deal were class examples. Now the Iran Deal that refuses to die, no matter […]
New in PJ Media: Leftists will tell you: patriots are a bunch of book-burning neo-Nazis who are busy even now trying to control what people think by taking books out of the hands of our young people who are thirsting for knowledge. And so the headline of the Wednesday report from Tampa Bay’s WFLA was downright ominous: […]
New in PJ Media: Back in March 2021, a man named Ahmad Al Issa walked into a King Soopers supermarket in Boulder, Colo., and murdered ten people. Ever since then, he has been in a mental hospital, having been judged incompetent to stand trial. Now, however, prosecutors are planning to make the case that Al […]
You cannot defend Afghan and Iranian women from Islamic misogyny unless you agree to pretend that men can become women and vice versa. Otherwise, you may be murdered by “transgender” activists. If they don’t get you, their Islamic jihadi friends will get you for standing for Afghan and Iranian women against the suffering they must […]
It’s the same story the world order: so many Muslims, like Leftists, are desperately insecure and fearful of any kind of challenge. Thus they move to crush free speech regarding Islam as well as proselytizing for any other religion. Indeed, proselytizing for any other religion among Muslims is a Sharia offense. “Kyrgyz police fine Catholic […]
Prof. Sadegh Zibakalam, once a supporter of the Islamic Republic, has been more and more outspoken in his criticism of the regime. Some Iranians in exile are still suspicious of him, given that he is apparently able to avoid punishment and even retains his post as a professor at Tehran University. More in Zibalakam’s recent […]
New in PJ Media: After Audrey Hale, a woman who thought she was a man, murdered six people at a Christian school in Nashville, Tenn., Leftists hastened to tell us how victimized and marginalized people who are deluded or confused about their gender really are. It would have been easy to get the impression that a Christian […]
New Zealand has gone from a woke female prime minister who trampled upon the civil rights of her citizens using a violent incident as a pretext, while putting them in harm’s way of jihadists due to her reckless immigration policies, to having a male prime minister who professes not to know what a woman is. […]
Transgenderism is now deeply entrenched institutionally in Western countries, many times against the rights of children and their parents. The degree of its rapid advance is troubling. How could such a violation of rights happen so quickly? Where were level-headed teachers in schools, not only in Britain but across the board? Perhaps they were bullied […]
They might harm the “dialogue.” “Rome Cancels Anti-Muslim Papal Bulls As Uncatholic,” by Jules Gomes, ChurchMilitant.com, April 4, 2023: VATICAN CITY (ChurchMilitant.com) – The Vatican has abrogated three papal bulls claiming that the documents are offensive to indigenous peoples and “have never been considered expressions of the Catholic faith.” The bulls Dum Diversas (1452), Romanus Pontifex (1455) and Inter Caetera (1493) contain the […]
How long before Sweden jettisons the idea of freedom of expression and outlaws blasphemy against Islam altogether? “Terror expert: Sweden a priority target,” translated from “Terrorexpert: Sverige en prioriterad måltavla,” Nyheter 24, April 4, 2023: Five people have been arrested on suspicion of having planned a terrorist crime in Sweden. That the plans are linked […]

Mercy is not part of Gholamhossein Mohseni Ejei’s world view or modus operandi. He works according to this principle: “Make ready for them all that you can of force and of warhorses, so that by them you may strike terror in the enemy of Allah and your enemy…” (Qur’an 8:60) “Iran’s judiciary chief threatens to […]
What could possibly go wrong? “An individual suspected of Islamist terrorism released with an electronic bracelet,” translated from “Un individu soupçonné de terrorisme islamiste remis en liberté sous bracelet électronique,” Valeurs Actuelles, March 31, 2023 (thanks to Medforth): A questionable decision. On Monday March 27, a man suspected of an Islamist terrorist act was released […]
Celebrate diversity! What happens when you bring in a large number of people who believe that violence can be holy under the right circumstances, and have contempt for the legal system of the “most vile of created beings” (Qur’an 98:6)? “Lyon: three stabbings since Friday at Guillotière, at least 6 injured to deplore,” translated from […]
Isn’t this wonderful? Now: when is the Easter celebration at the local mosque? What’s that? Never? These expressions of generosity and outreach always and in every case only go in one direction, and are never reciprocated? Now, why is that? “Lille: during the Easter octave, we will celebrate iftar at the St-Pierre-St-Paul church,” translated from […]
New in PJ Media: On the same day that his principal opponent was indicted on the most dubious of charges, our Supreme Leader Joseph R. Biden Jr. proclaimed Friday to be the Transgender Day of Visibility, complete with a presidential proclamation. With six people dead in Nashville at the hands of a “transgender American” just four […]
In Yemen, the civil war that has continued since 2015 is a proxy war between Iran, which supports with weapons and money the Shi’a Houthis, and Saudi Arabia, which not only supports with money and weapons the Sunni Arabs who control the ever-shrinking national government, but has sent 100 planes and 150,000 soldiers to fight […]
New in PJ Media: During the Trump administration, the Islamic Republic of Iran was feeling the effects of global sanctions and was severely restricted in its abilities to pursue its longstanding practice of engaging in and funding terrorism, either directly or through its proxies, such as Hamas and Hizballah. That was, however, a long time […]
New in PJ Media: The ongoing protests in France ramped up Tuesday. Thousands of people took to the streets, the Eiffel Tower was closed, and the French government warned that the protesters wanted “to destroy, to injure and to kill.” Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin took the unprecedented step of putting 13,000 officers in place to face the […]
Why would there be more fights during Ramadan than in other times? “Ramadan is not a month of laziness but rather a month of activity, of effort, and of hard work, and as it also was in the life of the Prophet, a month of jihad, conquest, and victory.” — Palestinian Authority Supreme Sharia Judge Mahmoud […]
It is abhorrent that France 24 would glorify a high-level jihad leader by giving him a public forum, and then make up excuses about it. Would France 24 interview an innocent man whom Leftists deem guilty by Leftists for the “offense” of insulting Islam, or someone whose aim is to show that mainstream Islam is […]
Iran is the world’s representative Shia state. To expect the Islamic Republic to change course in order to suit infidel ideals of human rights is to expect its mullahs and ayatollahs to disobey the Sharia. The Qur’an instructs: (Quran 24:31) And tell the believing women to lower their gaze and be modest, and to display […]
What will France be like in ten years? Twenty? Thirty? The answer is quite obvious. “Among the 8 bestselling ‘children’s books’ from Amazon France, 4 books are on Islam,” translated from “Dans les 8 meilleurs ventes “livres pour enfants” d’Amazon France, 4 livres sur l’islam,” Fdesouche, March 24, 2023 (thanks to the RAIR Foundation): Bestselling […]
Joe Biden has assured the world that Iran will not acquire nuclear weapons “on my watch.” How much credence ought the people of Israel, who will be the ones most affected should Iran acquire a nuclear weapon, give to this assurance? None at all. Israelis cannot entrust their national survival to assurances from Joe Biden […]
Frank Gaffney interviews me about Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) calling for a third Intifada in Israel in capitalizing on a turbulent time for Israel. In an update, PIJ has now declared the “IDF disintegrating before our eyes” due to inside protests against judicial reforms. Note: an article I referenced in the interview was actually published […]
New in PJ Media: San Francisco, with its steep hills and streetcars and glorious vistas, was once a gorgeous little jewel of a city, but that was a long time ago. Leftist politicians, including but by no means limited to Nancy Pelosi, made it Exhibit A of how far-Left policies can destroy what was once […]
It’s not that Hossein Amir-Abdollahian has no self-awareness or no information about the violent suppression of protests in Iran. It is an attempt to show that what the Islamic Republic has done with its protestors is not so out of the ordinary, and to deceive people into thinking that the Iranian regime has not actually […]
The Saudi-Iranian agreement, brokered by China, to renew diplomatic ties has now been followed by the Saudis inviting Iran’s President Ebrahim Raisi for an official visit. It looks as if the two rivals are serious about promoting ever-better relations. What does this mean for Israel, which has its own security ties to Saudi Arabia, with […]
A U.S. contractor was killed and another contractor and five U.S. service members were injured There are stories that the media covers and stories that the media covers up. This doesn’t always mean not reporting the story at all. Sometimes it’s just a matter of what things the media keeps talking about and what it […]
“The aggression against two women, a driver of the minibus of the medico-educational Institute of Vesoul, and a local resident – who is in serious condition – throws fear in the peaceful district of Pierres vives.” That’s the idea. “Make ready for them all that you can of force and of warhorses, so that by […]
No surprise here. Many Islamic centers (as well as mosques and charities) in the UK and elsewhere in the West have frequently been found to be tied to jihadist foreign entities. Just a few examples: Qatar and Turkey bankrolling Muslim Brotherhood networks across Europe, including Muslim Council of Britain UK: Shia mosques and Islamic schools […]
It’s about time. There’s much work to do to start protecting children from a dangerous element of the trans community that has mutated into a cult, and is now inflicting grooming and mutilation upon children, allegedly without parental consent. 🚨BREAKING EXCLUSIVE REPORT🚨 .@ChildrensNatl admits in damning audio recording that they do “gender affirming” hysterectomies on […]
Why do we still have troops in Syria? What is their purpose, other than to line the pockets of the military-industrial complex? “American Contractor Killed in Drone Attack on Base in Syria,” by Eric Schmitt, New York Times, March 23, 2023: WASHINGTON — A U.S. contractor was killed and another contractor and five U.S. service […]
Something is very wrong in the UK, which on top of everything else is now serving as a haven for an Iranian rapist whose fear of having to return to Iran didn’t stop him from committing his crime in the first place. If the victim were a relative of Judge John Keith, Keith would likely […]
Ireland is now a perfect example of how fascism grows: fear of the state develops after politicians fully surrender to special interest groups or to certain ideologies. If police, the military and the media then capitulate to these politicians, who represent the state, then the host society is lost, along with the rights of its […]
Despite vicious woke attacks against acclaimed Harry Potter author J.K Rowling, she refuses to back down from her warranted criticism of the trans movement, which has gone out of control. “I can only say that I’ve thought about it deeply and hard and long and I’ve listened, I promise, to the other side. I believe […]
The no-go zones are real, and those making the threats did not, at least from the looks of this report, deny their existence. They just don’t want the general public to know about them. In Islamic law, it is considered a good thing to conceal the faults of a fellow Muslim, as Muhammad said: “The […]
Either the New York Times is historically illiterate or it just doesn’t give a damn. The Left never lets go of anything or forgets its history. No conspiracy theory is too dead to be dragged up again. And with Carter on the way out, the New York Times decided to drag out its old claim […]
Senegal is 97% Muslim. The cross is an affront to Islam. The Qur’an claims that Jesus was not crucified, although in somewhat equivocal language for what is supposed to be the perfect word of an omniscient god: “And because of their saying, We killed the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, the messenger of Allah, they […]
Why does this keep happening? Yes, sexual molestation happens all over. But we see Muslim migrants involved in this kind of story is seen on a not infrequent basis. Why? One reason may be because such treatment of infidel women is sanctioned in the Qur’an. In France, a Muslim quoted Qur’an while raping his victim. A survivor […]
There is violence against women in all cultures. So to post this is just “Islamophobic,” right? Wrong: there is violence against women in all cultures, but only in one does it have divine sanction. Had this Libyan internalized the idea that violence against women was justified in certain circumstances? Where did he get the idea […]
No one in this case seems to be in the least concerned with whether or not what this fellow said was true. Imagine the embarrassment of French authorities when they discover that he was simply enunciating a mainstream Sharia position. A hadith depicts Muhammad specifying the punishment for homosexual activity: “The Messenger of Allah (peace […]
Celebrate diversity! “Paris: a man on file S arrested after disrupting a religious service,” translated from “Paris : un homme fiché S arrêté après avoir perturbé un office religieux,” by Aude Blacher, France 3, March 17, 2023 (thanks to Medforth): A man was arrested on Thursday after disrupting a religious service. The man, who is […]
According to Egyptian-born pro-Al-Qaeda cleric Tariq Abdelhaleem, America is losing its grip on the Middle East to Russia and China. He’s right. Of course, he didn’t miss the opportunity to slam those two infidel countries, calling them “unbelievers” and “wicked people.” This is merely the tip of the iceberg. The red-green axis won’t be so […]
The Arabic Service of international broadcaster France 24 has had problems with its staff similar to those experienced by the BBC’s Arabic Service in 2021. It has suspended four of its journalists over their antisemitic social media posts. A preliminary Jihad Watch report is here, and more on the staffing problems of France 24’s Arabic […]
New in PJ Media: Wednesday, March 15, is the United Nations’ “International Day to Combat Islamophobia,” and while my family is planning just a quiet celebration at home, at the UN they’re going all-out with the festivities. Secretary-General António Guterres kicked things off in style with a fawning address in which he lauded the multifaceted […]
Any guesses on what the angle might have been when these now suspended journalists covered any topic related to Israel? Laila Odeh celebrated murderers as “martyrs.” Lebanese journalist Joelle Maroun tweeted: “If Only Hitler Was Lebanese.’” Dina Abi-Saab celebrated Hamas rocket fire upon Israel, and Sharif Bibi declared “We will eradicate you, Israel.” CAMERA said […]
Once again, the Biden Administration is factoring itself out of a critical global event. With Russia demonstrating its determination by threatening to use nuclear weapons, along with its suspension of a nuclear arms control treaty and its threat to resume nuclear tests, there’s big reason to be concerned. Add to that the fact that Iran […]
Iran’s threat presents a big dilemma for Western leaders, as Iran is the most powerful Shia country in the world, and Western leaders are still willfully blind to the fact that one cannot separate politics from mainstream Islam. The Sharia is divine law. For mainstream Muslims, no law in the world transcends it. The Sharia […]
For the reality of the fourteen centuries of Islam, see here. It would have been refreshing if Guterres had read out a bit more of Surah Al-Tawbah of the Qur’an, such as these verses: “Then, when the sacred months have passed, kill the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them, and besiege them, and […]
New in PJ Media: If you’re a veteran of the United States Armed Forces and now you’ve become convinced that you’re really a woman, you’re in luck: Old Joe Biden and his henchmen are going to start devoting taxpayer money to aiding and abetting your delusions and fantasies: the White House budget proposal for 2024 […]
Investigators suspect that these weapons “were intended for Toulouse delinquents,” who are themselves largely Muslim migrants. For some of these, the overall goal is to destabilize the state and ultimately replace it with an Islamic state. “Tarbes: A large delivery of weapons intercepted in the parking lot of a hotel,” translated from “Tarbes : Une […]
The renewal of diplomatic relations, after seven years, between Saudi Arabia and Iran, brokered by China, is cause for alarm in the West for several reasons. It shows that China is moving to replace the United States as the chief outside power in the region. China hopes for greater economic ties to the fabulously rich […]
