Watch also for the 26-point plan for Islamization.
"Pakistan-Based Militant Group Lashkar-e-Islam Vows 'To Spread Islam Across the World,'" from MEMRI (thanks to Sr. Soph):
In Pakistan's tribal district of Khyber Agency, there is ongoing fighting for the control of the region – with occasional phases of truce – between the militant Islamic tribal group Lashkar-e-Islam and rival fighters from the Kukikhel tribe.Lashkar-e-Islam came into prominence in April 2008, when it tried to extend its control from the Bara area, where it is based, to the Jamrud region of Khyber Agency. The organization was formed three years previously, in response to the increase in crime such as gambling, drug trafficking, and kidnappings for ransom in the tribal district of Khyber Agency.
With the capture of the Jamrud region, Lashkar-e-Islam chief Mangal Bagh sought to extend his control to the entire tribal district. But after dozens of deaths in the fighting, a tenuous ceasefire has been temporarily reached between Mangal Bagh and the fighters from the Kukikhel tribe. [...]
Following are excerpts from the interview with Mangal Bagh, as published by Roznama Khabrain,(1) as well as from other reports.
"We Are Out to Spread Islam Throughout the Entire World; We Have 180,000 Mujahideen."
In the interview, the Lashkar-e-Islam chief said that his organization was formed to fight criminals in the area. However, he noted: "Before the formation of this organization, [I] used to sit in the company of the ulema; [then I] started serving madrassas and religious people... Along with my usual work, I also work for the religion [Islam]."
About the objectives of Lashkar-e-Islam, Mangal Bagh said: "Allah revealed the Koran, which was not sent for any one particular region of the world. It was revealed for all of humanity. We are out to spread Islam throughout the world."
According to the paper, he said: "Our objective is to impart the teachings of the Koran. There are 180,000 mujahideen in our organization, and all these people work fi sabilillah [for the sake of Allah]. They receive no pay. They manage on their own."
Mangal Bagh said that the Qaed-e-Azam (Great Leader) Muhammad Ali Jinnah liberated Pakistan from the British [under the banner of] "La ilaha illalah" [There is no god but Allah] – i.e. in the name of Islam. He added: "If Islamic laws were followed in Pakistan, we would have to accept it. [But] if the laws of the Jews were followed, we would not accept it."
According to the paper, the group does not force the local people to accept its beliefs and commands. Mangal Bagh said: "If you ask the Muslims and the followers of Sikhism in this region, they are all happy with the organization [Lashkar-e-Islam]. The reports that we force people to raise our flag [on their houses] are incorrect. The people raise the flag on their own."
He added, however, that people in the region are not permitted to sing and dance: "According to the local tradition, singing and dancing are not permitted. People are fined for listening to music because this is a habit of the English [Westerners]. Pakistan can progress only when the government and the people together work for the religion of Islam."
Also in the interview, Mangal Bagh denied any links with Al–Qaeda, but said that the U.S. presence in Pakistan is the "big reason for the lawlessness" in the country. He added: "People of the entire world should expel the Americans from their countries."
Lashkar-e-Islam's 26-Point Agenda for Khyber Agency
Other reports have been published on the details of the Lashkar-e-Islam agenda for the tribal district of Khyber Agency, where the organization acquired near-total control following its successful fight in recent years against another group, Ansar-ul-Islam, which has since disappeared from the scene.
According to a report in Roznama Khabrain published the same day as the interview, Lashkar-e-Islam's 26-point agenda for implementation in the Khyber Agency is as follows:(2)
1. Eradicating all shirk [polytheism/idolatry], bid'at [innovation in Islam] and all un-Islamic practices from Khyber Agency
2. Permitting only Islamic-style graves
3. Enforcing a total ban on the activities of local and foreign terrorists in Khyber Agency
4. Providing [only] justified assistance to the security forces [of Pakistan] deployed in the area
5. Banning any kind of bribe to and from the mujahideen of Lashkar-e-Islam
6. Punishing any activity disturbing the peace without Lashkar-e-Islam permission; punishment will be as per tribal norms
7. Committing to defend the geographical and ideological frontiers of Pakistan
8. Committing to prevent crime and punish criminals
9. Enforcing a total ban on the sale of wine, on gambling, on counterfeit currency, on heroin factories, etc.
10. Enforcing a total ban on paid killers and kidnappers in the region
11. Enforcing a ban on thieves, theft, and stolen cars
12. Abolishing interest/usury in business transactions
13. Forcing fugitives who reside in Khyber Agency to behave properly and to be accountable to the local residents
14. Rehabilitating all mosques in Khyber Agency
15. Committing to protect teachers, male and female students, doctors, and ulema
16. Committing to resolve land disputes and ensure no land goes uncultivated
17. Enforcing a total ban on non-shari'a practices such as magic, charms, etc.
18. Committing to ensure absolute peace
19. Committing to ensure that women are modestly dressed according to Islamic norms when attending school, and to spread education among the people
20. Committing to ensure collective prayers are offered after the azaan [call for prayer] is sounded
21. Protecting of women's rights and resolution of marriage-related matters as per shari'a or tribal practices
22. Committing to total eradication of un-Islamic practices during marriage ceremonies, such as music and celebratory firing into air
23. Banning women from going to mountains to collect wood for fuel; violators will be fined 10,000 rupees
24. Banning women from going to doctors or hospitals unaccompanied by a male relation
25. Enforcing the compulsory wearing of caps, according to tribal traditions
26. Banning the sheltering of rapists, and totally banning homosexuals, in Khyber Agency....
# 23 really makes me mad - grrr! My husband won't be too pleased with that one. LOL!
What's a "tribal norm"? Do I want to know? This list is hilarious!
#21 is the oxymoron of all time. Protecting womens rights according to sharia? The right to walk around in a sack? The right to be beaten at the whim of her husband? The right to inherit half as much as her brother? The right to be hanged for the crime of being gang raped? Gloria Steinham must be proud.
"But after dozens of deaths in the fighting, . . . between Mangal Bagh and the fighters from the Kukikhel tribe. [...]" This is something that the CIA etal should encourage and activley foment.
Pakistani jihad group vows "to spread Idiocy across the world"
These chaps are the ultimate control freaks. They are terrified of life. 18 is a good one. 'Absolute peace?'. More like absolute stasis, absolute regulation of the life force. The universe is not a peaceful place and a Pax Islamica would be a violation of natural law.
27. Kill all infidels who won't convert or dhimmi down.
28. When in doubt, refer to #27.
"1. Eradicating all shirk [polytheism/idolatry], bid'at [innovation in Islam] and all un-Islamic practices from Khyber Agency"
Hasn't this been done already - like for the past thousand years or more?
Today Germany. Tomorrow, the world.
He added: "People of the entire world should expel the Americans from their countries."
Please do. We'll save ourselves a lot of money, time and aggravation. You have no idea how happy many Americans will be.
Just remember: what goes around comes around.
What would the Muslim reaction be to: "Americans should expel all Muslims from their country."
Sauce for goose is sauce for the gander.
Then if that's the case, why, pray tell, was it revealed only in Arabic? And why can it only be read and understood in Arabic?
"...for all of humanity", my eye.
yadayada,
Good question.
I wonder, what sort of theiving is alright then, if it isn't a total ban...
"...for all of humanity" means Muslims only.
Kuffars are the vilest of creatures, remember?
But we're also not allowed to rule in our own countries, 'man-made' laws must be done away with:
“Islam is a revolutionary faith that comes to destroy any government made by man. Islam does not look for a nation to be in better condition than another nation. Islam does not care about the land or or who owns the land. The goal of Islam is to rule the entire world and submit all of mankind to the faith of Islam. Any nation or power that gets in the way of that goal, islam will fight and destroy. In order to fulfill that goal , Islam can use every power available every way it can be used to bring worldwide revolution. This is jihad.”
Sayyed Abdul A’la Maududi in “Jihad in Islam.”
Non-Muslims have been granted the freedom to stay outside the Islamic fold and to cling to their false, man-made ways if they so wish. They have, however, absolutely no right to seize the reins of power in any part of God’s earth nor to direct the collective affairs of human beings according to their own misconceived doctrines. (Maudidi’s commentary on Sura 9:29, in Towards understanding the Qur’an.)
They have 180,000 fighters. More like 180,000 illiterate, badly trained, suicide bombers. If any of these groups ever actually tried to fight a war against well-trained, well-armed, disciplined military troops, it would be a massacre.
10. Enforcing a total ban on paid killers and kidnappers in the region ...
... however, killing and/or kidnapping of kaffirs will continue to be legal.
17. Enforcing a total ban on non-shari'a practices such as magic, charms, etc ...
... as well as any religion that does not regard Allah as supreme (pretty much all the rest).
21. Protecting of women's rights and resolution of marriage-related matters as per shari'a or tribal practices ...
... Yes, we realize that protecting women's rights is in direct violation of shari'a, and marriage-related matters are resolved by giving the husband total say, but hey, it sounded good, didn't it?
22. Committing to total eradication of un-Islamic practices during marriage ceremonies, such as music and celebratory firing into air ...
... Remember, the words "marriage," "Islam" and "celebratory" are completely incompatible.
22. Committing to total eradication of un-Islamic practices during marriage ceremonies, such as music and celebratory firing into air
We gave a 21-Gun Salute at my Father's funeral (and those weren't even real bullets); but I've never attended a wedding where guns were fired into the air. Do they do that at redneck weddings? ...lol

And the well-trained troops would be in the ICC before they knew it. The charge: using undue force that caused a massacre of "illiterate, badly trained" peasants.
Then again, the massacre might go the other way, since the troops would be required to obey the laws of war. Those 180,000 fighters would wear civilian clothing and the media would be there to record every shot fired at "innocent civilians".
What, ANOTHER Islamist outfit with a 26-point Plan to Conquer and Subdue the Earth? I'd rather sit at home and watch "Plan 9 from Outer Space," fellas, than be Islamized and to turn out for the latest street rio--errr, demonstration.

I have to disagree with you on that one. When Nigerian troops went in to Somalia they were poorly trained and poorly armed and undisciplined for a modern army. But they still managed to kick Islamist butt in record time.
PMK is right: our troops are fighting these so-called illiterates with hands tied behind their backs because of the moronic “Rules of Engagement” set before them. The illiterates are well aware of these moronic Rules of Engagement, thus take full advantage of our inanity.
How many of our troops have been and will be killed or maimed because they fight by a politically-correct, warfare rulebook, written by a gaggle of buffoons in Washington, London, Ottawa and elsewhere?
These illiterate, Islamic worms can only be beaten playing by the same rules; theirs, no rules of engagement!
I think we could all learn a lot from this plan and I applaud the visionary thinking behind it.
For many, many years I have argued that the minute you start allowing your womenfolk the right to go to the mountains to collect wood, you're on the slippery slope to goodness knows what kind of evil and it's deeply refreshing to realise that my views on this are shared.
And as for insisting that fugitives behave properly, well, I don't know why that isn't ingrained into the Constitution of every country in the world.
Stands to reason - If all fugitives learned to behave properly the world would be a far nicer place.
Just as long as there's no darned wood-collecting women out there spoiling it for everybody.
I just hate it when they do that.
"Lashkar-e-Islam's 26-point agenda for implementation in the Khyber Agency is as follows:"
Don't they know that Allah prefers odd numbers? If these guys were REAL Muslims, it would have been a 27 point plan! See: Allah’s Likes and Dislikes
To John C, I'd also rather sit at home and watch "Plan 9 from Outer Space." a leading candidate for the coveted epithet: "worst movie ever made."
"Stands to reason - If all fugitives learned to behave properly the world would be a far nicer place."
"Just as long as there's no darned wood-collecting women out there spoiling it for everybody."
"I just hate it when they do that."

LOL!!! :-D
"love thy neighbour" is sadly missing
I like #2: Someone who isn't a convert should die and then in his/her will, insist upon a proper Christian burial --or they can leave the body to fester in the street until they do.
What do they care about how a burial takes place? The person is quite dead.
Just when we thought the Plague was last heard of during the 100 years War five hundred years ago..
Today Germany. Tomorrow, the world.

Hey, leave Germanistan out of this..
24. Banning women from going to doctors or hospitals unaccompanied by a male relation
I guess women are just supposed to quietly succumb to whatever ails them if a male isn't available or amenable to accompanying them to a doctor or hospital. Even medical emergencies do not supersede the allah-given right of muslim men to control the lives of muslim women and if it came down to following proper islamic protocol or death from lack of medical attention, death would be preferable. Aren't we lucky to have these primitive savages living among us?
Muslim women living in the West don't have to tolerate living in abject slavery, but many of them seem to like it and even insist that they are more liberated than Western women. They can't really believe that, can they?
To the Jihadist,
An we will spread Biblical Christianity around the world. Now let's see you delete this.
Enforcing #9 will cripple Pakistani economy.
Enforcing #15 will not help the growth of islam.
As for #17: Good old profiteer (er.. prophet) used voodoo practices to attempt cure his terminal headache.
#19: What education ? If it is education as the entire non islamic world understands it, then why Sharia to enforce it ?
After going through the list, it appears the tribal groups seeking enforcement of the list will have to tackle the taliban (the keepers of true islam) on many issues.
He added: "People of the entire world should expel the Americans from their countries."
Well, if they expel Americans then they would know how much American help to keep world peace... so I think it is a good idea and I am not even American..but I do know that Americans have been asked to go into different countries to help control the situation, so why should Americans put their men in danger for a people who dont care and dont want them there, America get out and let them continue to slaughter themselves..the sooner that they do it the sooner the world will have peace..
And PMK what a great idea, expel all Muslims from our countries, they are nothing but bad news, they gang rape our women, many dont work and cause problems/ trouble in every country that they adopt.. good one PMK..
25. Enforcing the compulsory wearing of caps, according to tribal traditions
I'd like to start a new tribal tradition. All men should wear a propeller cap.
yadayada, you are so right..
11. Enforcing a ban on thieves, theft,
Hey maybe they are not following Mohammad after all as this is how Mohammad lived, he raided, slaughtered and took booty.. dividing it up amongst the army..
Mohammad stoped killing all Non-Muslims because he learnt that a dead infidel did not give him money, so the non-Muslims who were lucky enough to be allowed to live had to pay a very large tax, something akin to a protection tax..
"We gave a 21-Gun Salute at my Father's funeral (and those weren't even real bullets); but I've never attended a wedding where guns were fired into the air. Do they do that at redneck weddings? ...lol"
Darcy,
Nah. We don't waste ammo. Rednecks are very target oriented--we don't shoot unless we're shooting at something (road signs, beer bottles, rattlesnakes, dinner, etc.) LOL... Now, we have been known to hold "shotgun weddings", but they rarely end with the groom being "peppered". ;)
From Sheik yer'mami's Maududi quote:
"Islam is a revolutionary faith that comes to destroy..."
"Islam does not look for..."
"Islam does not care about..."
"The goal of Islam is..."
"...islam will fight and destroy."
"Islam can use..."
Notice how the followers of Islam are not responsible for anything? Islam does all the looking, caring, goal setting, fighting and destroying for them!
Maybe this "War on Terror" really should be a war on Islam. Islam sounds mighty unpleasant to me. I'd rather have roaches than Islam.
Uh-oh... Sorry Darcy--I was aiming to pull Champ's leg. ;)
Ha Ha Ha~!
