These fictional soldiers may be the ones Obama was counting on to fight the Islamic State — after all, his “vetted moderates” among the “Syrian rebels” are no more real than these guys. “Iraq PM Haidar al-Abadi promises corruption crackdown after probe finds 50,000 ghost soldiers,” AFP, November 30, 2014 (thanks to Bill): Iraq’s prime […]
Pope says it is wrong to equate Islam with violence
The key question here is, Who is responsible for equating Islam with violence? Islamic jihadists, or non-Muslim “Islamophobes”?

Jihadists plotted to blow up 5 passenger planes in Christmas “spectacular”
“The threat has been taken so seriously it came close to leading to an outright ban on all hand luggage….Mobile phones and electronic devices could still be banned from plane cabins, with the threat of a 9/11-style coordinated attack on London and other major cities feared imminent.” Airport security is always a step behind the […]

“Bishop Kevin? Boko Haram has done it again. They’ve raided the town of Shani, a largely Christian town, and thrown bombs into people’s homes.” “Yeah, so?” “Well, I thought you might want to bring it up at tonight’s outreach and dialogue meeting at Masjid Aurangzeb.” “Are you kidding?

This may be true, but it may simply be an attempt to “strike terror into the hearts of the enemies of Allah,” as the Qur’an directs Muslims to do (8:60). “Islamic State has a dirty bomb says British jihadi amid claims 40kg of uranium was taken from Iraqi university,” by Jennifer Smith, Daily Mail, November […]
