Robert Spencer is Director of Jihad Watch, and a member of the advisory board of the American Congress for Truth. He holds a MA, Religious Studies, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, with a thesis in Christianity; his study of Islamic theology, law, and history is self-directed. He was an Adjunct Fellow with the Free Congress Foundation in 2002 and 2003.[1] His site quotes praise of his scholarship from Daniel Pipes and Frank Gaffney, Jr. Michelle Malkin endorses his book, Religion of Peace? Why Christianity is and Islam Isn’t, and calls him "public enemy number one of CAIR {Council on American Islamic Relations). [2] Jihad Watch and Frontpage Magazine, to which he contributes, are funded by the David Horowitz Freedom Center. Jihad Watch has challenged the commentary of Carl Ernst of the University of North Carolina,Ernst had written of Spencer,
Spencer explains that his graduate study is "about the Christological controversies of the early Church, and their connection to various ecclesiological models. It led me to study the Eastern Churches in depth, which coalesced nicely with my study of Islam."[5] Financial Times, reviewing a Spencer book, The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam, described him as "...a hero of the American right...Like any book written in hatred, his new work is a depressing read."[6] The accuracy of Jihad Watch posts have been challenged.
