Will the Islamophobia never end? Jihad suicide bomber murders five, wounds 36 on Russian military base

While the Miami Herald and Nicholas Kristof wring their hands about "Islamophobia" and wonder what on earth could cause what they claim to see as irrational hatred and fear, jihadists in Dagestan remind us yet again of the real reasons why so many people think that there is something about Islam that isn't all rainbows and moonbeams.

"Bomb Kills Five Soldiers in Russia's Caucasus," by Richard Boudreaux in the Wall Street Journal, September 5:

MOSCOW--A suicide bomber crashed a car packed with explosives on a military base in the southern Russian republic of Dagestan early Sunday, killing five soldiers and wounding 36 others in an attack blamed on the region's Islamic insurgency.

No group claimed responsibility for the blast. But the republic's governor, Magomedsalam Magomedov, speaking to Interfax news agency at the military base, said the incident "suggests that militants in the republic still have the power to conduct such treacherous attacks"...

You know, this guy on youtube really addresses this with his videos. He really explains the religion of peace--okay, he doesn't he parodies these idiots. Honestly--Tariq Ramadan has threatened to sue me over appropriating public domain videos of himself. If you let this lying person--shut down my videos, as he is threatening to do--you shut down free speech. Strike a blow at the "religion of peace," download the first chapter of "orgy of the blind dead" for free on kindle--and say "f**k you" to these Islamist tyrants. If you like the first chapter, the rest is 99 cents, cheap.

99 cents, damned cheap. And F**k the "religion of peace."

The region of the Caucusus is a dangerous place. This is cuz it's a Moslem-intensive place. Putin knows it's foolish to concede high ground, so he's all in, as are his soldiers, who are necessarily vulnerable to such attacks.

*** 8:12 ***

But, in a small way, it's heartening to see Caucasian Moslems murdering adult soldiers instead of first grade girls. That plays better on Al Jazeera for the Arabian folk reclining in their Barcaloungers, eating popcorn and watching the evening news, no doubt greatly enjoying the inexorable progress of the Global Jihad called by Osama in '96.

From the article:

"the region's Islamic insurgency".

'Islamic insurgency'.

In other words: Jihad, to make Muslims dominant over non-Muslims, and to impose and enforce sharia. That is why the jihadist murder-'martyr' attacked the police, who represent (and locally enforce the authority of) the overarching non-Muslim power, the Russian Federation.

I have just obtained a copy of apostate-from-Islam, now Christian Canon Dr Patrick Sookhdeo's book about the Christians of Pakistan, 'A People Betrayed' (2002) [it is based on his doctoral thesis].

In the final chapter, on p. 356, Dr Sookhdeo makes certain observations about the nature of Islam, which apply just as forcibly to the situation in southern Russia, as to anywhere else that there is a large Muslim population currently existent within a non-Muslim state.

"To distinguish between Muslims and non-Muslims is far more than a mere statement of fact. From its very inception Islam has been acutely conscious of its relations with non-Muslims.

"**The vast majority of Islamic teaching - in early times the whole of it - assumes that the political, social and military dominance of Muslims over non-Muslims is the normal state; where this does not obtain, it must be sought** " {my emphasis - dda. Perhaps this paragraph should be translated into Russian!}.

To repeat: "The vast majority of Islamic teaching - in early times the whole of it - assumes that the political, social and military dominance of Muslims over non-Muslims is the normal state; where this does not obtain, it must be sought".

Remember: the man who wrote that, was reared within Islam until he apostasised (at University in the UK, so, probably around his early 20s). He knows whereof he writes.

On p. 357, he writes - "...it is intrinsic within Islam that Muslims should have a higher status than non-Muslims"...and on 385, speaking of the disappointment of those Christians of Indian ethnicity who had chosen to remain within Pakistan at its establishment, he observes, "The Christians' disappointment is understandable, but perhaps their hopes of equality in a Muslim homeland had been unrealistic, **given the nature of Islam** {my emphasis - dda}. It is unlikely that Jinnah's promise of equality could have been kept for long, *as non-Muslims cannot be equal citizens with Muslims in an Islamic context** {my emphasis - dda}".

On page 378, Dr Sookhdeo states flatly: "The overall conclusion to be drawn (from the historic data he has examined in the book - dda) is that Christian minorities (I would add, *any* non-Muslim minorities - dda) in Muslim-majority contexts are intrinsically vulnerable. There seems to be a one-way process towards oppression that has rarely been reversed. It is in the very nature of Islam to discriminate against non-Muslims".

In other words: Muslims simply can't and won't abide being in a minority, nor can they be satisfied with a condition of simple equality of rights with non-Muslims; the Ummah is programmed to seek *dominance*; and when it *achieves* or possesses dominance, it will deny equality with Muslims to any non-Muslims under its dominion and, indeed, will actively abuse them.

Now, back to the article.

'Militants'.

That is: jihadists; sharia-pushers; or, as Nonie Darwish refers to them in her book on Sharia, entitled 'Cruel and Usual Punishment', "allah's enforcers".

Some additional background (consulting maps and old geographical sources, is also advisable).

According to my Christian sourcebook/ prayerbook 'Operation World' (2001 edition), in 2001 Dagestan was stated to be 94 % Muslim, with 34 different ethnic groups. They note that 'there is a rapid rise in extreme Muslim Wahhabite groups - 7 % of the population - who are violently bent on forming an Islamic republic.' And is anyone surprised to find that Dagestan is "the poorest republic in the Russian Federation"?

The same sourc-ebook provides some additional information on the North Caucasus regions and provinces and major ethnic groups.

The only majority-Christian people-group are the Ossetians (Beslan is in the province of North Ossetia Alaniya), who follow Russian Orthodoxy.

The Chechen, as we all know, are overwhelmingly Muslim; Chechens who have become Christian are too few to register statistically.

Ingushetia, Kabardino-Balkariya, Adygeya, and Karachayevo-Cherkesiya, are also overwhelmingly Muslim.

It is worth noting that the Cherkess/ 'Circassian' people-group, found in Kabardino-Balkariya, Adygeya, and Karachayevo-Cherkesiya - left their original beliefs and converted to Christianity in the 6th century AD (i.e. prior to the rise of Islam) and remained a Christianised people for *nine centuries* until the 15th century, when - as my source primly puts it - 'they turned to Islam' (I think all experienced jihadwatchers will have some idea of what kind of pressure is concealed beneath the bland words 'turned to Islam'). In other words, the Circassians in the Caucasus are rather like the Nubians in the Sudan: a people who were Christian for centuries, but were assailed and finally worn down by Islam.

Jihad - with plenty of encouragement from foreign Muslim powers as well as non-state entities - is intensifying among all the Islamised Caucasus peoples.

DDA, thanks for this. Yes, when the Circassians "turned to Islam" in the Fifteenth Century it was probably not as pleasant an affair as these mild words suggest.

For those who enjoy geography and have Google Earth (if you don't, it is free and highly recommended), Dagestan is easily found and explored in detail. It is located on the Northwestern shores of the Caspian, with Azerbaijan to the South, and Chechnya and Stavropol to the West. If you've ever wondered where Beslan is, just type "Beslan, Russia" into the search box and it will take you right there.

What gets me, and have failed to understand is, why does Putin continue support Iran with their nuke program after reading this latest attack.
When the Beslin school massacre happened, I thought Putin would get rid of their muslim problem in Russia?

Russia has a lot of terrorist activity and incidents...But they like the US/west never go to the cause of the disease, they just treat symptoms and try to put out the fires...

Jews defend Islam, liberals defend Islam, Dems defend Islam, college professors defend Islam, the MSM defends Islam, feminists ignore Islam, the mayor of our nation's biggest city defends Islam, we have a Muslim president whose main focus is to defend Islam...

So, why am I, a simple, retired, conservative white guy, getting so upset with Islam and its defenders?

Heck, if Islam is allowed to run amuk and Sharia law becomes the law of the land, this is what will happen:
1) there'll be no more war in the mid-East since there'll be no more Israel and no more Jews (they'll all be exterminated);
2) Women will be relegated back to their previous status and won't have any rights;
3) I'll be able to treat my wife(s) however I want to - back to the days of barefoot and pregnant and anchored in the kitchen; "Honey, I'm home. Is dinner ready?"
4) no more liberal MSM since it'll be eliminated along with free speech;
5) no more concerns about gay rights, gay marriage, etc, since gays will simply be exterminated.
And to top it all off:
6) I'll have 72 virgins waiting for me in heaven if I simply convert to Islam.

So, bottom line, my life will be much simpler without all this worry and angst over the Islamization of Europe and ultimately America. What the heck, maybe I'll have to pay a little jizra or whatever you call the dhimme tax, but Obama's raising taxes like crazy anyway, so what's the difference?

Maybe the best thing for my peace of mind is to just sit back and relax and as they say in sports, let the game come to me. Sooner or later all of the above will realize that what they're defending is what's going to kill them, so they'll eventually join the battle. Only problem is, by then it'll probably be too late.

Jim,
You are wrong. If the whole world was islamic there would be war on an unprecidented scale. The different sects of islam are as intolerant of each other as they are of jews and christians. They are also the most racially intollerant people in the world and regularly kill othere of the same faith just because they are arab and not persian. No one likes the palestinians.

Claspur,
You must be young and dont remember the USSR. Putin supports the very people that are supporting the russian insergencies because they are an even pain in the neck to us! Its called cutting off your nose to spite your face. The most obvious example of this is putins selling Iran its latest military hardware despite Irans declaration 25 years ago that all of the southern part of the USSR and russia itself was historically part of Greater Persia and they were going to take it back.

Russias arms sales to iran is even more head scratching when you concider russia is a bigger paper tiger than the US was under Carter. The division that attacked Georgia is Russias "A Team". This equivilant to our 1st Armored Division almost lost to the Georgia National Gaurd.
Putin has done things like sell Kilo Class submarines to Iran in hopes they will use them to sink both tankers and US Warships in and around the persian gulf to hurt us in the energy sector and help them reap windfalls in the rise of oil prices. The vaulted SA-300 AA system Russia claims to have sold Iran is a system the russian army has only a handfull of and there is no guarrenty it actually works or that russia actually has the resources to build more of them.

These sons of bitches must be eradicated. The only solution for Muslim terrorists IS THE FINAL ONE.

Yes I call for the murder and death of every mujahadin on this planet. I'm sick of these bastards. Murder the bastards by the train load.

MsMud, why don't you tell us how you really feel without beating around the bush?

I'm not sure if you're being serious or not, but you made me think of something that no one seems to be pursuing, and that is:

If Islam advocates murder of non-Muslims, why are we allowing mosques to be built so that the Muslims can preach their murderous intent?

Not only should the Ground Zero mosque not be allowed, NO mosques should be allowed anywhere in the country.
