Report: ‘Black Hebrew Israelite’ Cult Connection to Jersey City Attack

  Early this morning I reported (“Jersey City Shooting ‘Targeted’ Jews, ‘Being Investigated as a Hate Crime’”) about suggestions of anti-Semitic motives in Tuesday’s shootout, and now we discover evidence that clearly indicates this was an act of terrorism: David Anderson was named as one of the two active shooters who kept police at bay […]

FBI Probes Belgian Terrorist Threat

  As I’ve previously explained, Charles Johnson of Little Green Footballs first alerted America to the danger of Belgian extremists, and whenever The Flemish Menace™ makes another terrorist attack, it’s important to give Charles credit. Consider the latest news from Pensacola: The F.B.I. was investigating but did not confirm a report that the Saudi trainee […]

His Name Was Mohammed Alshamrani

  If I had to guess, I’d say he’s probably from Belgium: Four people are dead including the suspect after an active shooting incident at a naval base in Pensacola, Florida, police said. The shooter was identified as Mohammed Alshamrani, a Saudi national [oops, I guessed wrong — RSM] and member of the country’s air […]

UPDATE: Sources Say Suspect in London Knife Attack Is NOT From Belgium UPDATE II: Male Violence in Netherlands

All day long, Fox News was reporting the knife attack on London Bridge in which a man reportedly stabbed five people, two of them fatally. And yet authorities in England will say nothing about the identity of the suspect or the motive behind what is plainly an act of terrorism. Probably another Belgian extremist, I’d […]

‘Austere Religious Scholar’

  In the carnival of #FakeNews self-ownage, the hits just keep coming: The Post’s obituary briefly acknowledges the circumstances of al-Baghdadi’s death before painting, at length, a rather sympathetic portrait of al-Baghdadi’s “canny pragmatism.” This is how the Post describes his background: From his teens, he was fascinated with Islamic history and the intricacies of […]

Al-Baghdadi ‘Died Like a Coward’

Trump’s announcement this morning about the death of the ISIS leader: Last night, the United States brought the world’s number one terrorist leader to justice. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is dead. He was the founder and leader of ISIS, the most ruthless and violent terror organization in the World. The United States has been searching for […]
