Ask
any successful individual, "who was one of the most influential
people in your life?" and very often the answer is a teacher. A good
teacher can make all the difference in the world to an aspiring learner.
But
a bad teacher can have a disastrously adverse effect. Such may be
the case in Nashville, Tenn. where Davidson County Sheriff Daron
Hall recently announced that he was partnering with the American Muslim
Advisory Council (AMAC) to provide an instructor to lead a class called
"Islam 101" that will be taught to correction officers
and other prison staff.

On
July 18, a young man stormed through a train outside of Wurzburg,
Germany. Crying "Allahu Akbar," (God is greatest) he brandished
an axe high into the air, then slashed at the men and women seated around
him. Within minutes, the car, as one person described it,
" looked like a slaughterhouse."

The
White House held a celebration Thursday afternoon to honor Eid al Fitr,
the end of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. While no guest list has been
made public, the Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT) has learned
that it includes a number of Islamist activists who have espoused views
in direct contrast with American policy.
Among
them were several officials from the Council on American-Islamic
Relations (CAIR) and a former official who remains close to the
organization. In contrast, Muslim Americans who believe CAIR and other
Islamist groups are not representative of the community's diverse
viewpoints were not invited.
The
White House declined to comment to the IPT or release a complete list of
invitees.

BEIRUT—The attack on a French church
signals the arrival in Europe of a type of intimidation long familiar to
Christians in the Middle East, whether from religious extremists, other
armed groups or even secular governments.

Four attacks in a week — three of them carried out by
asylum seekers — have left Germany on edge and Chancellor Angela Merkel's
policies of welcoming refugees under renewed criticism. Anxiety over
Germany's ability to cope with last year's flood of more than 1 million
registered asylum seekers first surged following a series of sexual
assaults and robberies in Cologne during New Year celebrations.

The terror attacks in Nice and Wurzburg are the latest
manifestations of what should now be seen as a still fairly low-level
Islamist insurgency taking place in a number of west European countries.
The fact that this insurgency has been allowed to kindle itself and
slowly emerge before now bursting forth represents a profound failure of
Western European political culture and of the continent's elites.

Last week, President Barack Obama's administration
dismissed reports of Iranian support for al Qaeda as the product of
fevered minds. Claims of collaboration between the Islamic regime and the
terrorist organization are little more than "baseless conspiracy
theories," an Obama administration official told The Weekly
Standard.
