Bahrain has a Shi’ite majority ruled by a Sunni minority, and so this is entirely possible: in these days when the Sunni-Shi’ite jihad rages in Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon, it’s entirely believable that Iran and Hizballah would be stirring up strife in Bahrain. And with Obama in their hip pocket, Iran is more confident and […]
Pakistan: Sunni jihadists bomb passenger bus, murdering 10 people, mostly Shi’ites
End the brutal Zionist occupation of Peshawar! Stop the spread of “Islamophobia” in Peshawar! That’s what makes for murderous attacks like this one, right? We know there couldn’t be anything in Islam teaching both Sunnis and Shi’ites that those whom they consider to be apostates and heretics should be killed, right? Only greasy Islamophobes say […]
Lebanon: Sunni jihadis claim Beirut bombings, vow more jihad attacks against Shi’ites
The Sunni-Shi’ite enmity predated the U.S. presence in the Middle East, and the establishment of the State of Israel, and everything else that mainstream analysts point to in order to explain it away. And as long as there are Sunnis and Shi’ites, it will continue. The U.S. government would be foolish and self-defeating to try […]
Iranian news agency claims that Saudi cleric calls Shia non-Muslims and demands they pay jizya
Iran’s state-controlled Ahlul Bayt News Agency picked up this story without attribution from Shia Rights Watch, the “SRW” referenced in the article. It could be accurate, or it could be another example of the anti-Saudi propaganda that the Iranians produce with some regularity. What is noteworthy about it in any case is it’s matter-of-fact explanation […]
Lebanon: Sunni jihad-martyrdom suicide bomber murders five people by blowing himself up in Hizballah stronghold
“Interior Minister Marwan Charbel said the suicide bomber was driving a Grand Cherokee and blew himself up at a gas station.” What a waste of a good Jeep. The Sunni-Shi’ite jihad was reignited in recent years by the toppling of Saddam Hussein in Iraq and the U.S. establishment there of a Shi’ite client state of […]
Pakistan: Sunni jihadists murder 22 Shia pilgrims in bus bombing
Note once again that when the perpetrators are Islamic jihadists, the mainstream media headlines become extremely coy. The blast hit this bus, as if of its own volition. We are left to surmise who may have set it off. “22 killed as blast hits bus with Shia pilgrims in Pakistan,” from PTI, January 21: ISLAMABAD: […]
Lebanon: Sunni jihadists murder four with jihad/martyrdom suicide bombing in Shi’ite neighborhood
This one appears to have been Sunni jihadists targeting the Shi’ites of Hizballah. Note once again that the mainstream media writes its headlines as if these things just happen, with no agent: the explosion up and hit Hizballah neighborhood, with no explanation of who was doing the exploding. “Explosion hits Hezbollah neighborhood in Beirut,” from […]
Iranian MP: Sunni jihad groups are misunderstanders of Islam and serve Israel’s interests
Boroujerdi Takfir is the practice of one Muslim individual or group declaring another Muslim individual or group to be non-Muslim, and hence to be killed as a heretic or apostate. Al Qaeda and other jihad groups are sometimes referred to by other Muslims as takfiri groups because they claim to represent authentic Islam, and pronounce […]
Pakistan: Sunni jihadists murder two, injure 17 with car bomb targeting Shia pilgrims
Note the AFP headline, as if the suicide car bomb decided to target Shi’ite pilgrims. Sunni jihadists actually did the targeting, but the mainstream media always does all it can to obscure the perpetrator when that perp is a Muslim and a jihadist. “Suicide car bomb kills two, injures 17 in Pakistan,” from AFP, January […]
Iraq: Islamic jihadists murder at least 15 people with bombs across Baghdad
