Jihad Watch
Jihad Watch is a website launched in October 2003 by notorious Islamophobe Robert Spencer to fight against what it describes as 'proponents of jihad and dhimmitude'. This apparently includes a lot of Muslims since according to Spencer 'No major Muslim group has ever repudiated the doctrines of armed jihad.' The website has also backed the English Defence League.[1] It operates under the umbrella of the David Horowitz Freedom Center (DHFC).
