#MyJihad: Afghan soldier fails to realize that jihad means not judging people by their cover, murders British "ally"

Hamas-linked CAIR's #MyJihad campaign assures us that jihad is benign, even chummy:

“My Jihad is to stay fit despite my busy schedule. What’s yours?”

“My Jihad is to build friendships across the aisle. What’s yours?”

“My Jihad is to not judge people by their cover. What’s yours?”

So many misunderstanders!

"British soldier dies in Afghanistan 'insider attack,'" from the BBC, January 8 (thanks to Paul):

A British soldier has been shot dead by a suspected rogue member of the Afghan National Army, defence officials say.

The soldier, from 28 Engineer Regiment, attached to 21 Engineer Regiment, died on Monday at Patrol Base Hazrat, in the Nahr-e Saraj district of Helmand.

The gunman, who the Taliban claim was acting for them, first opened fire on Afghan troops and then British soldiers, before being killed....

The BBC's Quentin Sommerville said a number of other people had been injured in the attack.

Shortly after details of the incident emerged, the Taliban released a statement saying they were behind it, he said.

There has been a sharp rise in so-called insider attacks against local forces and Nato troops in Afghanistan. In 2012, more than 60 Nato service personnel, and a quarter of the British troops who died in Helmand, were killed in such attacks....

Treachery,thy name is ISLAM!

Actually, the Taliban actions against Allied troops are pretty standard fare for occupied countries: guerrilla warfare, fading into the population, unwillingness to openly confront superior troops, and an unrelenting campaign of death and harassment.

The unique contribution of the Taliban is to infiltrate Islamic sympathizers into the government forces and engage in suicide missions of killing occupation soldiers. And, in an Islamic country, how difficult is it to find Islamic sympathizers.

The real difficulty with Afghanistan came when George Bush decided to engage in nation-building, against all the advice of anyone with information on the ground. Bush decided to allow his Afghan "allies" the honor of catching Bin Laden, rather than a quick in-out killing operation.

I don't know what Bush thought, if anything. Maybe he thought the more tame Muslims there are, the more they will contribute to his failed businesses, as the Saudis did.

Anyway, the more engagement we have with Muslim societies, the more of our "allies" will be immigrating into our country. Their world-view is almost exactly the same as our "enemies", so we are importing Taliban kids behind our defensive borders.

The prospective Secretary of Defense, Chuck Hegel, opposed the Iraqi adventure and is said to be an independent voice. He also supported Obama against McCain, which in retrospect, turned out to be a very good idea. McCain seems to have never seen an intervention into a Muslim country that he wasn't in favor of.

I get frustrated at the futility of trying to import representative government, or even human decency, into Islamic countries. We have no business weakening ourselves by spending lives and treasure trying to humanize a pre-medieval code of law based on Bedouin tribal customs.

Really, how "rogue" is this, at this point? It seems almost par for the course...

Actually, Ronald, Chuck Hegel voted *for* the invasion of Iraq. But to the extent that he did later oppose the invasion of Iraq, it wasn't because he knew that attempted "nation building" there would be futile—he opposed it because he pretty much opposes any attempt to stand up against Jihad, ill-considered *or not*.

He is anti-Israel, and conciliatory towards the horrifying Islamic Republic of Iran.

No doubt, John McCain would have made many mistakes, many along the same lines as George Bush. But to assume that having someone in the White House who is sucking up to the Muslim Brotherhood while slighting our staunch ally Israel seems—with respect—an odd choice to tout as superior.

Right after 911 Bush was blaming an 'evil ideology', he set his firm jaw, got a hard steely look to his eyes, and said , 'we are going to fight terror'...
Later, he said that Islam was the 'Religion of Peace', had prominent Mahoundians over for dinner, and prayed in a Mosque...What caused that reversal? Did Gabriel speak to him too?

It's a long time since I watched the film 'Islam: What the West Needs to Know'.

But I do recall that when I saw some of the included video clips of Tony Blair and then-President Bush, immediately post-2001, I got this sense that they were spooked-out.

They seemed to me to have the eyes of men who have just looked down into the bottomless Pit.

I must watch that film again, sometime soon, to double check that impression.

Did anybody else 'read' them that way?
