The escalating Sunni-Shi’ite jihad in Iraq continues to claim lives. But remember: the real problem is “Islamophobia,” and to examine the beliefs that give rise to this never-ending cycle of violence would be “Islamophobic.” “Car-bomb blasts kill 34 as Iraqis await vote count,” by Sameer N. Yacoub, Associated Press, May 13, 2014 (thanks to Kenneth): […]
Iraq: Islamic jihadists murder four with car bomb in Tikrit
In Samarra is the Al-Askari Mosque, a Shi’ite shrine, so this is likely to have been Sunni jihadists targeting Shi’ite pilgrims as part of the ongoing Sunni-Shi’ite jihad. But no one dares explore the motives and goals of the perpetrators of murderous attacks like this one; to do so would be “Islamophobic.” “Car bomb goes […]
UK: Shi’ite Muslim cleric investigated for hate rants against Sunni Muslims
“Understandably, there will very little sympathy in the UK for this extremist rhetoric.” Understandably? Really? When has the UK been unsympathetic to Islamic “extremist rhetoric”? Just days before Pamela Geller and I were banned from entering the UK, the British government admitted Saudi Sheikh Mohammed al-Arefe. Al-Arefe has said: “Devotion to jihad for the sake […]
Indonesia: Thousands at “Anti-Shia Alliance” event call for jihad against Shi’ites
Ahmad bin Zein Al Kaff, the head of the Anti-Heresy Front, “said that Indonesia must be cleansed of Shiite teaching to prevent sectarian strife between Shiites and Sunnis — all the while inciting violence against Shiites.” In other words, the Shiites have to get out of Indonesia, or else. “It’s time that we declared jihad […]
Video: Robert Spencer and Michael Coren on Shi’ite cleric broadcasting anti-Sunni rhetoric from rural UK, and more
Last night on my weekly Jihad Watch segment on Michael’s Sun TV program. Topics as summarized by Aloha Snackbar 01, who kindly posted the video: 1) France thwarts jihad attack by Muslim returning from Syria 2) UK Shi’ite cleric broadcasts anti-Sunni rhetoric from the English countryside. 3) The brother of Lee Rigby’s murderer says it’s […]
UK Shi’ite cleric broadcasts anti-Sunni rhetoric: “Fear is a load of angry Sunnis from Slough coming here and having a rumble”
How far gone is Britain? This far gone. “Last week, Ofcom revealed it was powerless to stop the cleric’s incendiary broadcasts, which are said to stir up conflict between al-Habib’s Shia sect and rival Sunni Muslims.” Meanwhile, in Fulmer, “what half of us fear is a load of angry Sunnis from Slough coming here and […]
Syria: Sunni Islamic jihadists bomb Shi’ite shrine
“Many fighters from ISIL and other radical Sunni Islamist groups in Syria deem Shi’ites as infidels and consider their shrines idolatrous, and therefore legitimate targets,” Reuters reports blandly, without noting that to consider someone an infidel and his shrine idolatrous does not necessarily require one to think that that person and shrine are “legitimate targets” […]
Iran resumes financial assistance to Hamas
After a brief interval caused by the widening Sunni-Shi’ite jihad, the Iranian mullahs have resumed their financial aid to Hamas. Apparently, even though the aid is at a lower level than before, Islamic antisemitism trumps Shi’ite hatred for Sunnis. My brother against my brother, and both of us against our cousin, goes the old saying. […]
Iraq: Islamic jihadists murder at least 42 with car bomb at checkpoint during rush hour
Note once again the mainstream media’s unwillingness to name the perpetrator in the headline when the perpetrator is an Islamic jihadist. This time it was a “car bomb attack” that killed at least 42 people. Is that like an asthma attack? Or did the car bomb decide of its own accord to attack these poor […]
Maliki: Saudi Arabia and Qatar are supporting Sunni jihadists in Iraq
Saudi Arabia and Qatar are supporting Sunni jihadists, and Iran is supporting Maliki’s weak Shi’ite regime. Meanwhile the Sunni/Shi’ite that was reignited in Iraq has now spread to Syria and Lebanon. This 1,400-year-old conflict will outlive all the Washington establishment analysts such as Condoleezza Rice, who so confidently waved it away a few years ago. […]
