"Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power...to strike terror into the hearts of the enemies..." (Qur'an 8:60).
"Militants hack off noses, tongues," from Reuters, with thanks to Sr. Soph:
SUSPECTED Islamist militants killed a villager in Indian Kashmir by slitting his throat and cut off the tongues and noses of four others, accusing them of being police informers, authorities said today.The attackers also beat up seven other villagers and set several houses ablaze late on Wednesday in a remote village near Mahore town, 65 km north-east of Jammu city, the Indian state's winter capital.
"It is a mountainous village and it takes six hours on foot to reach there from the nearest road link," said a police officer.
"These foreign militants are ruthless," he said, referring to guerrillas India say are Islamists who cross into its part of Kashmir from Pakistan, and sometimes even Afghanistan.
Villagers in the area said the attackers were probably acting out of revenge, suspecting the locals of informing the police about the presence of a militant who was killed in the area in April.
Elsewhere in the region, a civilian was killed and five others, including three policemen, were wounded today when suspected militants fired at a police patrol near a mosque in Bandipur town, north of Srinagar, Kashmir's summer capital.
"The police party was attacked after it had attended Friday prayers," a police spokesman said....
More than 45,000 people have been killed since a separatist revolt broke out in 1989 in Jammu and Kashmir, mainly Hindu India's only Muslim-majority state which is also claimed by Pakistan.
Islam is not Peace or Love......Hate...Learn...Warn....we unite to fight......Teach.
If the government of India can not protect its citizens from these murdering weasels, perhaps they could at least arm the villagers and give them a fighting chance. I'm reminded of the old saying from the American frontier: God made all men, but Sam Colt made them equal.
The MSM does a piss poor job of reporting on the world wide Jihad, you know this latest Islamist atrocity will get scant coverage outside of websites like this one monitoring the Jihad. They are quick to cover what's going on in Iraq and Palestine, but it's as if the rest of the world doesn't have a problem with Islam.
The main reason to me why they don't cover the Jihad in Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, India, Bangladesh, Algeria, etc. is obvious. It would alert the West to the enormity and world wide nature of the Islamist threat. It would destroy the liberal/leftist slant that it's the actions of the US and Israel that fuel Jihad. And that's why this and other websites talking about the worldwide Islamist threat are so important.
islam is as islam does... More suffering for the moon-god.
"Well, Christians do that too. All the time, in fact. They go around mutilating people in America, because Americans are all religious fanatics and Jesus told people to mutilate infidels. Islam and Christianity are identical!"
The above is probably what your average hardcore leftist would say about the subject. Moral equivalency, and so forth.
"More than 45,000 people have been killed since a separatist revolt broke out in 1989 in Jammu and Kashmir, mainly Hindu India's only Muslim-majority state which is also claimed by Pakistan."
Breeding like rabbits, these savages are becoming a majority in many PEACEFUL nations, then "claiming" them is the next step on their well known agenda.
WE can see this happening, why don't the governments of these countries. The muslims are the ONLY group who are doing this as far as I can see. No one else seems to be itching to go and settle in Pakistan, Iran etc
Regarding the multi-culti, moral equivalancy thing...

sorry if i came off wrong.
I remember watching "Roots" when it first came out. The violence against the slaves really made me sick. I see the cult doing this.

Yes, it is obvious. MSM is run by dishonest cowards!

NO ONE CARES IF THERE ARE NO JEWS TO BLAME AND HATE
Let's keep this in perspective, folks.
Cutting off noses and cutting out tongues is never as bad as PANTIES ON THE HEAD!
sarc/
treehugger: "Cutting off noses and cutting out tongues is never as bad as PANTIES ON THE HEAD!"
I was going to note that this sort of puts Abu Ghraib in perspective, but you beat me to the punch.
Waiting for any degree of proportional outrage.
Right. What was I thinking? I'll settle for ANY outrage at all....
BTW - how do you cut off someone's f***ing nose? There's a whole lot of bone and cartilege there.
As alarmed pig farmer likes to note in his running (and frequently amusing banner):
Mo Moslems!
Oh yeah! Mo Moslems! We can't wait! What a great contribution Muslims have been time and again to the cause of multiculturalism!
This mutilation was just to prevent the poor souls from having to endure the rotten smell of Islam or its revolting taste.
The Koran, when licked, has the flavor of pus.
1350 years of it.
Where are the Surgeons Without Borders to help repair this Islamic outrage?
PB: "This mutilation was just to prevent the poor souls from having to endure the rotten smell of Islam or its revolting taste."
It's pretty obvious that the motivation behind cutting off someone's head is that you don't like their THOUGHTS. Their thoughts are threatening.
Likewise, the obvious motivation for cutting off someone's tongue is that you don't like WHAT THEY SAY. Their speech is threatenng.
I'm only surprised that it isn't Islamic de rigeur to stick chopsticks in people's ears in order to prevent them from hearing what you don’t want them to hear – namely anything negative about Islam.
Cutting off people's heads: Think no evil (anything against Islam)
Cutting off people's tongues: Speak no evil (anything against Islam)
Maybe they don't routinely gouge out people's ears because it would prevent them from hearing the call to Islam – the da'wa, and the muezzin...
Caroline-
Exactly.
Compared to the tongue and nose, both of which you can hold , the ears are relatively passive organs.
"Submissive" even.
Islam 'loves' the things that cannot resist it, or fight back.
And destroys the active human senses and personality traits (compassionate decency, intellectual honesty, spiritual seeking).
Slaves hate the free.
If they cannot be free, then no one will be.
The essence of Islam.
Henry: "EXCEPT take the Koran to task! It is a retarded bible, and it tries to control too much! It is easy to show to be fallacious. We must work at it."
Henry - I have read your many posts reiterating this point. I trust you are familiar with Ali Sina's work at faithfreedom.org - doing exactly what you keep proposing.
I was about to refer you to the sign-up page for his new book (last I checked he still needed about 1500 orders in order to get a publisher) but I see that his site has moved and is now at
http://www.news.faithfreedom.org/
Where has the link to the book sign-up gone?
please let one muslim come on here and defend your practice on religion. tell us why you are a religion of peace, tell us why your prophet muhammud should he immitated, like Christians want to be like Jesus. l will not hold my breath.

Not surprisingly, Islam has not spared that atrocity either. Captured Indian soldier's eyes were gouged out by Pakistani army during the Kargil war: http://www.angelfire.com/in2/kargil/
So you see, no barbarism is beyond Islam.
Henry: "But, I think they may not go as far as I do in my zeal to reform Islam.(maybe I'm wrong - will read more) But I think the only thing can work is to powerfully discredit the foundation of all Muslimisms by showing that the Koran itself is corrupt by rigorous scholarship."
Henry - you definitely need to read more there. Unfortunately the site is in transition, which makes for some confusion. Trust me though, when I suggest you've found what you're looking for. This site is called jihadwatch. It'c central focus is not on discrediting Islam as a whole. However, I'd say that's a fair description of Ali Sina's site.
Alert - after I made my previous post - and reflecting on the penchant for cutting off heads and tongues and hands and feet and clitorises, I was thinking to myself...huh - what about the eyes? I'm not all surprised by your link. What surprises me is that I can't think of any Sharia statute that calls for gouging out eyes as explicit punishment for some crime. Which makes me wonder - how did they miss the eyes? Were the eyes an oversight? :-)
