“A French-backed scheme was launched in 2015 with the goal of deploying a 5,000-man joint force among five nations in the front line. But lack of funding and training, as well as poor equipment, have greatly undermined the initiative, and last June the force’s headquarters in Mali were hit in a devastating suicide attack claimed […]
Sweden: Possible jihad suicide bombing in Stockholm suburbs
The details are sketchy, but apparently a man blew himself up in a Stockholm residential area. Could this have been a jihad suicide bomber? Possibly. Will Swedish authorities be forthcoming about what happened here and provide all the relevant details? That’s an open question at this point. “Explosion Rocks Apartment Building in Stockholm, One Dead […]
Iran: Sunni Muslims murder at least 2 Shia policemen, injure 42 people in jihad attack at police headquarters
The Sunni-Shi’ite jihad goes all the way back to the very beginnings of Islam, in the rivalry between Muhammad’s wife Aisha and his son-in-law, Ali, as The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS details. Because Islam has a death penalty for heresy and apostasy, it often turns murderous. “Iran arrests four suspected militants over […]
Somalia: Muslims murder Islamic leader and at least 17 of his followers for playing music
Whenever I note that Islamic law forbids music (aside from nasheeds, a cappella songs encouraging jihad), I am excoriated as a greasy Islamophobe, but it’s nonetheless true: Hadith Qudsi 19:5: “The Prophet said that Allah commanded him to destroy all the musical instruments, idols, crosses and all the trappings of ignorance.” (The Hadith Qudsi, or […]
Afghanistan: Taliban murder 26 members of Afghan security forces inside mosque for Friday prayers
The victims were Muslims who were praying inside a mosque, but as far as the Taliban are concerned, they’re apostates, for allying with Infidels (in contravention of Qur’an 3:28 and 5:51) and fighting against their fellow Muslims (in contravention of Qur’an 4:92), and so they can lawfully be killed according to Islamic law. “Suicide blast […]
Chechnya: Muslima blows herself up near police station, succeeds in killing only herself
Since she killed herself only, she will not be able to lay claim to the Qur’anic promise of Paradise to those who “kill and are killed” for Allah (9:111). And in this game, there are no second chances. “Woman sets off suicide bomb up near police station in Grozny,” Reuters, November 17, 2018: MOSCOW, Nov […]
Tunisia: Muslima blows herself up on Tunis street, many injured
“Indeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties, for that they will have Paradise. They fight in the cause of Allah, so they kill and are killed.” (Qur’an 9:111) There is no description in the Qur’an of what Paradise is like for women, while what it is like for men is […]
Afghanistan: Imam arrested for involvement in jihad bombing attacks
What? A mosque imam? A man who has dedicated his life to understanding Islam properly, was involved in jihad bombing attacks? Pope Francis is undoubtedly on his way to Herat now to explain to this cleric that he is misunderstanding his own religion, and that true Islam and the proper understanding of the Qur’an reject […]
Egypt: Muslim attempts jihad suicide bombing at church, blows himself up when guards approach
Egypt was conquered by Arab armies in 642. Its Islamization was accomplished, as I detail in my book The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS, by placing the humiliating and discriminatory regulations of dhimmitude upon the native Christian population. Those regulations had their intended effect: Egypt was 99% Christian at the time of the […]
Nigeria: Muslim murders at least 11 with jihad/martyrdom suicide attack on rival mosque
If you’re the wrong kind of Muslim, watch out: Allah guarantees Paradise to those who “kill and are killed” for him (Qur’an 9:111). “At least 11 killed in Nigerian mosque suicide attack,” CGTN, July 23, 2018 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): At least 11 dead bodies have been evacuated following a suicide attack on […]
