One Book Explains Why We’re Losing to Islamic Terrorism

“I recall one instance where we were ordered to turn over a shipping container of captured Taliban weapons to the Afghan government, and I told the Major in charge of the mission “You know these are going right back to the Taliban as soon as we leave, right?” Without hesitation he responded, “Oh yes, I know.”

This story that Jesse Petrilla tells in If It Takes a Thousand Years: From Al-Qaeda to Hamas, How the Jihadists Think & How to Defeat Them’is part of the larger reason why we not only lost Afghanistan, but why we’re losing to Islamic terrorists around the world and at home.

Islamic Militias in the Central African Republic

The Central African Republic is a tragic case of what happens when Islamic radicals take over a nation.

Much of the international community, human rights groups and media have ignored it, but the Central African Republic (CAR) has been struggling with an ongoing war launched by Seleka, an alliance of Islamic militias fighting against the country’s Christian and officially secular government.

Most of the country is today occupied by armed groups (both from within the country and foreign fighters), all of whom appear responsible for human rights abuses.

Teenage guns for hire: Swedish gangs targeting Israeli interests

The 13-year-old boy should have been in school last Thursday, instead of sitting in a police station in central Gothenburg. But police say he fired shots outside the offices of Israeli tech firm Elbit Systems.

“He was basically caught in the act,” said police spokesman August Brandt, who said the shots were being investigated as an “attempted murder and weapons offence”.

Kalleback on the outskirts of Gothenburg is a fairly sleepy residential neighbourhood with upmarket developments, a supermarket and a few offices.

Sara Sharif ‘had a plastic home-made hood taped over her head’, was ‘hit with a cricket bat’ and ‘left unable to walk’ after being ‘beaten black’ by father

Sara Sharif had a plastic bag taped around her head as a ‘home-made hood’ and was beaten with a cricket bat, a court heard today.

The 10-year-old’s father Urfan Sharif is accused of battering his daughter to death before fleeing to Pakistan last August after subjecting the schoolgirl to weeks of brutal abuse.

Months before the murder, neighbours noted that Sara had started to wear a hijab in January 2023, which Prosecutor Bill Emlyn Jones, KC, said was a bid to conceal the appalling injuries she was receiving at home.

Government of Canada lists Samidoun as a terrorist entity

Today, the Honourable Dominic LeBlanc, Minister of Public Safety, Democratic Institutions and Intergovernmental Affairs, announced that the Government of Canada has listed Samidoun, also known as the Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network, as a terrorist entity under the Criminal Code. The listing is in concert with U.S. Department of the Treasury’s announcement of the designation of Samidoun as a specially designated global terrorist (SDGT) though its Executive Order (E.O.) 13224.

Samidoun has been listed as a terrorist entity by Germany. Samidoun has close links with and advances the interests of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), which is a listed terrorist entity in Canada, the United States and the European Union.

Samidoun doubles down, says ‘death to Canada’ an accurate summation of its goals

After Samidoun was roundly condemned for chanting “death to Canada” at a Vancouver rally celebrating the one-year anniversary of the October 7 terrorist attacks, the anti-Israel group has doubled down on the slogan, saying it’s an accurate representation of what it intends to do.

UK Limiting Islamist Books in Prisons Raises Questions

The UK’s Ministry of Justice has imposed new rules aimed at curbing the spread of Islamist ideology in prisons. The measures, announced in late April, are part of an effort to reduce the terror threat posed by “highly ideologically motivated offenders,” said Ian Acheson, an expert on Islamist radicalization in UK prisons.

The new rules limit the number of books prisoners convicted of terror offenses can keep in their cells to two boxes, totaling 15 kilograms. The goal is to prevent the stockpiling or concealment of extremist literature. The MOJ has also banned prisoners convicted of terror offenses from taking leading roles in religious services to preclude them from exploiting the communal worship of Friday prayers to indoctrinate or radicalize fellow inmates, one in seven of whom is a Muslim.

Officials demand more empty platitudes & increase for insincerity budget after 2nd shooting at Jewish girls school

Officials call for ‘concrete action’ after 2nd shooting at Jewish girls school

Schools shouldn’t have to have bulletproof glass or metal detectors.

That was the message delivered Sunday at Bais Chaya Mushka School for Girls, which had a window shot out early Saturday morning in the Finch Ave. W.-Dufferin St. area. It was the second time since May that the North York school was targeted with gunfire.

It was on May 26 when multiple shots were fired at the building in the first case. No injuries were reported, but there was damage to the front of the school.

Barbara Kay: Kidnapped as a sex slave at 11, Yazidi woman finds freedom

Muslims tattooed their Yazidi girl slaves. Islam is a murderously sick cult that “blesses” slavery.

The word genocide has unfortunately lost much of its potency through misuse and unethical appropriation in the past decade. But in the case of the fragile Yazidi people, there can be no disputing the accuracy of the descriptor for the horrors inflicted on them in 2014 by the jihadist movement Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL).

Cory Morgan: Feds Must Crack Down on Extremist Anti-Israel Protests on Canadian Streets

Anti-Israel demonstrations began sprouting up across North America within days of the terrorist attack upon Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. The demonstrations were initially large, and many demonstrators claimed they were seeking to promote peace in the Middle East. They continually told us they wanted to encourage a two-state solution and wanted what was best for people in the region. Anti-Jewish sentiment kept slipping out of the protests but we were assured those were just minority voices who spoke out of frustration with the conflict.

Nope, the “Vocal Minority” ruse just doesn’t work.

The return of al-Qaeda and Islamic State

The operation went almost without a hitch. Swooping low over the horizon in the early dawn light, the helicopters disgorged their cargo of commandos into a dried-out riverbed.

Surveillance drones guided them successfully to the enemy’s remote hideouts. The resistance was intense, the insurgents they encountered wore suicide belts and hurled grenades.

But after hours of fierce fighting, the mission was clearly a success. Among the 14 enemy dead were four of the movement’s leaders.

Joe Oliver: Canada’s irresolute response to Iranian terror reeks of moral rot

In the complicated world of international conflicts, contradictory moral positions can often be justified by competing narratives, conflicting facts, differing starting points and starkly opposed ideological perspectives. However, when large-scale heinous crimes are systematically committed by a murderous organization or nation state, responsible countries should take an unequivocal stand. High on a lengthy list of crimes against humanity are the Holocaust, the Ukrainian Holodomor, Khmer Rouge massacres in Cambodia, and the Hutu slaughter of Tutsis in Rwanda. Belatedly, most countries acknowledge that failure to mitigate or at least decry those monstrous tragedies was shameful.

Inviting Islamists to settle in Canada reeks of moral rot.

Smearing citizens as Islamophobes and Racists because they had the good common sense to object also reeks of moral rot.

Continuing to slavishly cultivate the Islamist vote goes beyond mere moral rot and is nothing less than satanic evil.

Shooting at Israeli Company by 13-Year-Old May Have Been Ordered by Iran

Source in Swedish criminal network says their targets are “anything connected to Israel—synagogues, embassies, diplomats.”

A 13-year-old boy has been apprehended by Swedish police after a shooting by Israeli company Elbit Systems’ building in Gothenburg. While nobody was injured in the shooting, the suspected shooter is facing charges of attempted murder and aggravated weapons offenses. Police said the boy was not from the area but appeared to have traveled there for the purpose of committing a crime.
