Batarfi is departing here from the standard view, which is summed up by the old adage, “My brother against my brother, but both of us against our cousin.” Sunnis and Shi’a generally have no problem allying against Infidels, but Batarfi here is saying that the Sunni-Shi’ite jihad should take precedence. “AQAP Leader Khaled Batarfi Slams […]
Afghanistan: Taliban replace statue of anti-Taliban Shi’ite leader with replica of the Qur’an
The message is clear: adhere to the Qur’an, don’t idolize human beings, and especially one who opposed those who are in power.

Iran: Top Shia cleric blames US for Sunni-Shia conflicts
The Sunni-Shi’ite jihad has been going on for far longer than the United States has existed.

Afghanistan: Sunni Muslims murder 32 Shi’ites in jihad suicide bombing at Kandahar mosque
The Sunni/Shi’te jihad has killed far more people than the trumped-up propaganda term “Islamophobia.” Yet no one seems particularly concerned about it as a human rights issue. Perhaps too much concern about it would in itself be “Islamophobic.” “32 killed, 68 injured as blast hits Afghan mosque in Kandahar,” Reuters, October 15, 2021: A large […]
Afghanistan: Islamic State claims responsibility for mosque bombing that targeted Shi’ites, says perp was Uyghur

Iranian President Raisi: We Won’t Allow ISIS on Afghanistan’s Border with Iran
It’s amusing to see Ebrahim Raisi, the infamous “butcher of Tehran” who sentenced 5,000 political prisoners to death, now expressing his alarm over the reemergence of ISIS in Afghanistan. As a Shi’a mass murderer, Raisi is naturally alarmed at the Sunni mass murderers regrouping right next door. And as a past master of taqiyya […]
Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthis launch another attack on civilians in Saudi Arabia
Biden has fully showcased to the world’s jihadists just how weak and incompetent he is. Remember, shortly after he took office, he removed the terrorist designation that the Trump administration had placed upon the Houthis. Trump supported Saudi Arabia against the common enemy of Iran. The only sensible response to Iran’s hardline Islamic regime was […]
The Taliban’s jihad on the Hazaras for not being the right kind of Muslim
The progressive media whitewashes the misdeeds of the Taliban, even as the good jihadis put a bullet in someone’s head, splattering blood all over.
