Will the Islamic apologists in the West who insist that jihad is primarily a spiritual struggle denounce Tareq al-Suwaidan as a heretic? What do you think?
“Kuwaiti Islamic Scholar And Muslim Brotherhood Leader Tareq Al-Suwaidan: My Role Is To Wage Jihad; Do You Want This ‘Filthy Entity’ To Keep Ruling Over Us Forever? Israel Will Not Be Removed By Its Own Devices, Someone Needs To Do It,” MEMRI, August 28, 2024:
Kuwaiti Islamic scholar and Muslim Brotherhood leader Tareq Al-Suwaidan spoke in an August 28, 2024 interview with Arabic Post uploaded to YouTube on August 28, 2024 about the ramifications of the October 7, 2023 Al-Aqsa Flood Hamas attack. He said that he does not cry for the martyrs in Gaza, rather he cries for not being among them, saying that all Muslims should aspire to achieve martyrdom. Al-Suwaidan said that in Islam preserving life isn’t the highest priority, rather it is preserving the religion, and this is where Jihad comes in. Al-Suwaidan added that Israel will not “be removed by its own device,” but someone needs to do it, and this would require sacrifice. He stated that it is not the resistance’s fault if “this filthy entity” is killing innocent people.
Tareq Al-Suwaidan, was fired from his position as director of the Saudi Al-Risala TV in 2013, after announcing online that he is a Muslim Brotherhood leader. He currently resides in Turkey. Al-Suwaidan spent several years as an Islamic leader in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He was an unindicted co-conspirator in the case against Hamas terrorism funding by the Holy Land Foundation, and has been banned from entering several countries, including the United States and Belgium, for antisemitism and supporting terrorism.
Tareq Al-Suwaidan: “By Allah, what happened during the Al-Aqsa Flood should be taught in the most prestigious colleges. The planning was unbelievable. People who are experts in planning know that what happened could only succeed with divine intervention, and profound and extraordinary planning.

Interviewer: “Blood is flowing in Gaza like rivers. Where is the victory that we were promised? Why is there no divine intervention to stop the bloodshed of children, women, the elderly, and to stop the hunger in Gaza?”

Al-Suwaidan: “Man, I do not cry for them. I am crying for myself for not being among them. This is how a believer should aspire for martyrdom.

“Preserving life is not the only objective of the shari’a – these include the preserving of religion, life, lineage, intellect, and property. These are the main objectives of the shari’a. Which one of these objectives has higher priority? It is preserving religion, not preserving life. This is why there is a thing called ‘Jihad.’ If preserving life had the priority, there would be no Jihad – we would abolish it. Preserving religion takes priority over preserving life.
[…]
“We should not say: ‘They were killed because you waged Jihad.’ My role is to wage Jihad and liberate my nation and my country. Do you want this filthy entity to keep ruling over us forever? We must remove it. It is an abnormal entity in terms of geography and history. It will not be removed by its own device. Somebody must remove it. The people who remove it must make sacrifices. It is not the resistance’s fault that this filthy entity is killing innocent people. It is the fault of that filthy entity and all the accusations should be directed at it, and not at the resistance.”

If true to your “role,” why are you a living, breathing middle-aged man?
Yet we see lots and lots of elderly Muslim males, plus young ones and middle-aged ones, like you. What gives?
The answer, “Let some one else do it.”
OLD GUY says
If it’s his job to wage Jihad then it should be our job to take him out. These so called Islamic scholars know that they can get others to commit the Jihad and no retribution will come to them. Well maybe Israel has the answer get him a pager.

Same old shit.

Islamic scholar: ‘If preserving life had the priority, there would be no jihad’
……………………………………………
Note that what “preserves religion” for this pious Muslim is beheading babies and kidnapping women and using them as sex slaves.
And why *isn’t* this fat thug getting bombed in Gaza? I’m sure he could arrange that if it were really important to him…

“Filthy entity,” he says. It sounds as though this Muslim Mutant Brotherhood leader (apologies to Magneto et al.) is doing a bit of projecting.

How to escape islam with allah’s unwitting help and away from “scholars”
“And if thou muhammed art in doubt concerning that which we reveal then question those who read the scripture that was before thee”
koran 10:94
allah confirns the Torah in koran 3:3
But allah’s torah is clearly NOT the Real Torah
the musa of islam is NOT the Biblical/Torah Moses
The teachings of the koran /islam are CONTARY to the law given to Moses
Foor example koran 5:51 says muslims must NOT be friends with Jews and christians
so “love thy neighor” in impossible
THe 2nd chief commandment is IN the Torah.{Leviticus 19:18-19}
How did allah MISS the entire contents of the Law given to Modes
{The 2 chief+10 Exodus 20 laws}
If allah confirms the Torah?..
alalh’s torah is obviously NOT the Real Torah

Too bad, really too bad, that the “struggle” hasn’t been between this ugly ghoul and someone who could take him out. A sniper with his rifle, or a hungry crock. His day of death will come, the death he says he wishes to come.
Probably at a time when he least expects it. The hungry worms are waiting…patiently.
So much evil, and so few actually fighting it.
Rick Gordon says
I cannot comprehend those who when given the choice select death over life. That’s a real cult .

The more I read about Kuwait, the more I think that Saddam Hussein should have been allowed to annex it and make it a part of Basra province

He should ask Allah but he wouldn’t get any answer the same way the sheik did not answer.
And those who are not suffering will continue saying that jihad must be waged and people must sacrifice their own lives. People should ask why those who promoting jihad never do the jihad themselves.
Mike says
Good points. Moreover, there is little hunger in Gaza.
To the extent that there is hunger there, it’s a distribution problem, due to HamArse stealing vast amounts of the generous food aid for themselves, and also re-selling it to regular Gazans at exorbitant prices.

I cry that i wasnt among them FFS. If he asks nicely I am sure we can put him where he wants to be. This is the nearest I can find to terrorist stolen valor.

According to the feature article:
“Al-Suwaidan said that in Islam preserving life isn’t the highest priority, rather it is preserving the religion, and this is where Jihad comes in.”
Unless Western politicians understand this basic concept, they will keep making the same mistakes over and over regarding islam – and its devout followers.
No Taqiyya says
Al-Suwaidan:
“Man, I do not cry for them. I am crying for myself for not being among them. This is how a believer should aspire for martyrdom.”
The words of a conceited, vainglorious, brainwashed bigot. The governments of Saudi Arabia along with the United States and others have banned this “filthy entity”
Furthermore it illustrates the nihilism of an antihuman, death-gloryfying hate-filled, demonic cult that has metastasized throughout the Western democracies and other nations.
This malignant tumor must be totally eradicated before it spreads even further spreading violence, mayhem, disorder and moral depravity.
For only morally depraved monsters could carry out the barbaric atrocity of October 7, 2023. A low point in the history of this hateful death cult.
