Syria: Jihadist group threatens U.S., says it will fight until U.S. pays jizya and is "humbled"

"Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued." -- Qur'an 9:29

Muslim spokesmen in the West routinely claim that this verse has no applicability in the modern world. They're lying.

"Syrian Jihadist Group Threatens United States," from IPT News, December 27:

A Syrian opposition group tied to al-Qaida has issued a threatening statement against the United States two weeks after the U.S. Treasury Department designated its leaders as terrorists.

A statement published on a jihadist website from Abu Mohammad Tahawi, a leading Jordanian Salafi jihadist who often trumpets the Nusrah Front in Syria, taunts the United States and President Obama and promises bloodshed.

The Nusrah Front "placed you long ago on the terrorism blacklist based on injustice, tyranny and vanquishing people," Tahawi wrote. "They have made a pledge for themselves to obey the oath of Sheikh Osama [bin Laden] … and you will not know a pleasant life, nor quiet and happy sleep until you return to your homes, with bowed heads, weary, miserable; and you pay them the Jizya (tax on non-Muslims), and are humbled ."

The US already paid Jizya; it's called military and economic aids to Muslims.

Lession not heeded: Never permit the nose of a camel to enter your tent, for the rest of him shall surely follow.

Let’s look ahead, at a possible future. The Western hemisphere excludes Islam, all the rest except Europe is ceded, and Europe is a battleground. Just suppose the battle for Europe (fought at the ballot box, the parliaments, the courts, even in the streets, as absolutist militias are suppressed) is successful and European culture reigns exclusively through to the Balkans, with no hostile enclaves overlooked. What then?

They breed like hamsters. They still have revenue from the extraction industry we gave them. They remain scripturally obligated to murder, theft, conversion, subjugation, conquest and war, but now they aren’t fooling anyone: their modus operandi is transparent. And they have nukes. What then?

Things may not be abysmal. If Americans continue to awaken to the innate hostilities presented, if the provocation comes in a nuclear fashion, with European, Israeli, and perhaps Indian casualties, especially if they total better six figures, then we have all the justification needed for releasing enough mirv'ed warheads to obliterate the leadership and war-making capability of the belligerents.

Then the lines are defined, and the obtuse are either at last convinced or rendered irrelevant. Then the US can pursue Islam and the Islamists based upon their political hostility, prosecuting and ejecting as we go. Then the Europeans can rediscover their manhood and, literally, fight street battles to reclaim their continent. Then the free world can send military force anywhere in Africa and Asia to rescue indigenous peoples at risk.

Then the real fun starts: pushing them out of "traditional" lands.

Over a half century ago there was science fiction written about advanced cultures that were xenophobicly obsessed and traveled about the galaxies searching for intelligent life, which they exterminated. Their dogma, traditions, their very existence was devoted to the extirpation of every other civilization, everywhere. Then I ponder Islam…

There’s a continuing problem with TYPEPAD©. Only the shortest of messages can be typed into the TYPEPAD© window as it consistently drops characters.

As Diana West has demonstrated, it doesn't matter if Obama formally designated the Nusrah Front to be a "terrorist organization" -- because the entire Syrian opposition admires and supports the Nusrah Front.

what are those people smoking? really what?
M

Which people? The Syrian rebels, or the O's administration?

My guess is that the O's administration wants to be sure that the USA is "on the right side of history" this time. A formative experience for people like Hillary Rodham Clinton was the Viet Nam War and the early stages of opposition to Shah Mohammed Riza Pahlavi. Such people decided that the Communists (including Tudeh in Iran) were "the good guys", and US administrations, especially Nixon's (let's not speak too loudly about Kennedy's) were thus "the bad guys". Now, since political Islam is THE force sweeping the Middle East and North Africa, the USA, in the current narrative, needs to get on the "good side" of this revolution.

It never enters into the thoughts of our current leaders that this "great game" may not be worth playing; or that there are people who'll hate us no matter what, and whatever we do won't make up for what we are.

So, I guess what the O's administration has been smoking is a generous dose of wishful thinking mixed with their own messianic pretensions; what the Syrian rebels have been smoking is probably good old hashish.

They have been grossly emboldened by the appeasing behaviour of the USA and of other 'western' countries.

Supposing that someone of the calibre of Allen West got to be POTUS, and indeed, supposing an Islamosavvy someone with backbone were elevated to leadership in any major Western country, and stopped with the appeasement, and began speaking plainly and backing it up with decisive and *intelligent* action, I think these sorts of boastings and threats would suddenly reduce in volume and frequency.

In the meantime, however, we are stuck with the fools we currently have.

But these Muslim boasters and threateners forget that awareness of what Islam is all about *is* slowly but inexorably permeating the grassroots of western societies. I see that when I read the Comments to assorted articles that touch on Islam, in different press outlets in Australia, the UK, the USA and elsewhere. And that same informed awareness is spreading beyond the West; I have seen this when I have read comments to articles touching on Islam in the Indian and the Nigerian press, for example, or even in comments to jihad-related articles in the Bangkok Post. I see more and more non-Muslims who know just exactly what Jihad is, and sharia, and taqiyya, and what the Ummah is after (Total World Domination).

And therefore the proper response to this boasting, strutting thug who talks exactly like the boss of a crime syndicate, would be to translate into Arabic of the appropriate dialect the following two pieces, which today come from the mouths of quite ordinary citizens of the free non-Muslim world, but tomorrow, or the day after, might just possibly be uttered by persons elevated to a position of Authority.

A Fireside Chat With the Ummah

Excerpts:

"Well, now we know what you want.

"You want to expand Dar al-Islam at the expense of the Dar al-Harb and, in the long run, bring about the domination of the entire world by Islam.

"We also know that the method for that is called jihad, and we are not stupid enough to believe that jihad only means violence. No, you are not that primitive. Jihad also includes demographic efforts, immigration, da’wa (proselytizing), taqiyya (skillful lying), writing jihad (propaganda) and use of economic power (petrodollars).

"We even believe you that there is an inner jihad: to lead a life that is pleasing to Allah. That is your private affair. We also do not annoy you with the content of our prayers. Naturally, we do not believe that that is the only meaning of jihad. We are not blind, and thankfully your sacred writings are available for us to read.

"We also recognize that there are differing opinions within your community on whether terrorist violence is an efficient or a counterproductive means of achieving your goals. We wouldn’t like to inject ourselves into that. You should agree among yourselves about tactical and strategic questions.

"It may reassure you to know that we, for our part, are moving to discussing Counterjihad among ourselves from a purely tactical-strategic perspective — no longer considering which methods are more agreeable to you, but only which ones are more agreeable and likely of success from our point of view.

"By the way, we very much hope that, with the sense God has given you, you see that your intent of Islamizing the whole world or alternatively just Israel and Europe does not appeal to us.

"It is our sad duty to tell you that we will resist this intention with all means at our disposal...".
