TagsTagsLook who’s posting vitriolic comments at Robert Spencer’s web site: CAIR’s Ahmed Bedier stops by Jihad Watch to tell me no one is reading Jihad Watch. Here is his comment: Spence: Maybe you should consider taking your hate-fest workshops on the road and train bigots how to restrain their hatred so not ...
Here are two reviews of Robert Spencer’s excellent new book, [Amazon Link]. By Andrew Bostom: Scrutinizing Muhammad’s example and teachings. By Bruce Thornton, at Victor Davis Hanson’s web site: The Wolf Pack, What it means to live by Muhammad’s words and deeds. I’ve just finished the book and although I’ve read extensively on ...

In a way we should be grateful to Dean Esmay for his periodic attacks on Robert Spencer, because they prompt Spencer to do some of his best writing; in this case, a lucid, highly readable piece explaining the Quranic principle of Abrogation. (Suitable for idiots, but entertaining for all.)

The Chicago Sun-Times published an unfortunately one-sided article on Monday, another dishonest smear job from the Council on American Islamic Relations on Robert Spencer and his site Jihad Watch—without giving Spencer a chance to respond, of course: Muslims see a growing media bias. On a typical workday, Ibrahim Hooper of the ...
The latest Al Qaeda video featuring American idiot Adam Gadahn specifically invites Robert Spencer to convert to Islam, and Spencer answers at Jihad Watch: ‘To Americans and the rest of Christendom we say, either repent ... or ... suffer the consequences in this world and the next...’ Thank you for the ...
Robert Spencer, director of Jihad Watch, will be interviewed on C-SPAN’s Q & A at 8 pm ET tonight. You can watch it over the web here: C-SPAN: Watch LIVE. UPDATE at 8/20/06 8:24:41 pm: Robert Spencer emailed to let me know that he’s having some problems at Jihad Watch; you can ...
Apparently, Dean Esmay never learned the First Rule of Holes—if you’re in one, stop digging—because amazingly, he’s posted another angry, ad hominem-laced attack on Robert Spencer (and on me, because I had the temerity to point out Spencer’s public debate with him). More than a few commenters have asked why Spencer ...
Dean Esmay is smearing Robert Spencer again, and Spencer has another devastating response, on the bigger issues raised by ill-informed (and/or deliberately deceptive) apologists for Islam: On assertions without evidence.
Robert Spencer completely deconstructs a series of straw man attacks by Dean Esmay (who knows a lot less about Islam than he would like us to believe): Esmay’s dismay, and his response. Read the whole thing; Esmay’s ad hominem rants don’t really deserve such a thorough rational response, but the ...
Earlier today Glenn linked to this post by Dean Esmay, tearing apart a remarkably stupid email he received: Fisking The Islamophobes. Problem is, even though the particular email received by Esmay is indeed worthy of scorn (and someone forwarded it to me too), in the course of “fisking” it Esmay makes ...
Yesterday we had a post about North African anthropologist Malek Chebel, and his 27 Propositions for Reforming Islam. Any sign of change and evolution in Islam is always welcome, but Robert Spencer raises some vital issues that never seem to be addressed by the would-be reformers: Hope for reforming Islam? Will ...
Robert Spencer rips apart another deceptive article from Islamic dissembler Stephen Schwartz: Jihad Watch: Disingenuousness about apostasy law. Islamic apologist Stephen Schwartz, who has responded with intemperate hostility in the past to my attempts to open a serious dialogue, has misrepresented Islamic apostasy law, specifically that of the Shafi’i school of ...

The case of Abdul Rahman has cast a sudden sharp light on the quaint Islamic practice of murdering those who leave the faith—and this, inevitably, has also led to a blizzard of misleading politically correct articles in mainstream media. Robert Spencer sets the record straight: Academic Lies About Killing Apostates. The ...
