Islamic entities keep telling us this is a religious war. Policy analysts in Washington keep telling us it isn’t. Who is right? The evidence of the last seventeen years ought to establish that well enough for any neutral observer, but if you know someone who is still on the fence, preorder a copy of The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS for them here. The record of the last fourteen centuries speaks for itself, and clearly, but this record is almost completely unknown in the U.S. today.
“Iran’s Khamenei urges Muslim nations to unite against U.S.: state TV,” Reuters, April 26, 2018:
ANKARA (Reuters) – …”The Iranian nation has successfully resisted bullying attempts by America and other arrogant powers and we will continue to resist… All Muslim nations should stand united against America and other enemies,” Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said.
Iran’s top authority criticized Trump for saying on Tuesday some countries in the Middle East “wouldn’t last a week” without U.S. protection.
“Such remarks are humiliation for Muslims … Unfortunately there is war in our region between Muslim countries. The backward governments of some Muslim countries are fighting with other countries,” Khamenei said….

the statement of the top dog Ayatoilet is a DECLARATION OF WAR on the USA. I hope
that Donald Trump will recognize it as such

Khamenei is just reiterating the declaration of war upon the “infidels” made in the Quran. He’s saying nothing new. It’s a war that been ongoing for nearly 1,400 years now and will end only when the Quran is rejected by mankind as a piece of garbage. It would be nice if the U.S. could play a role in taking out the garbage. Its smell stinks to high heaven.

The world should stand united against islam.

I read in the Washington Free Beacon a few minutes ago that Iran threatened to sink American ships if the President refuses to continue to remain in the charade of a treaty (never ratified by the U.S. Senate so it is referred to as a deal). I hope that this alone will cause the President to refuse to continue be part of this farce. I also noted that the writer from Reuter’s news agency was not reporting from Tehran but from Ankara which says a lot in itself. The mullahs don’t permit foreign journalists to report the truth from their soil. I did notice, however, that Khamenei did recognize that America was aiding in other Arab nations stand up against Iran when he says, “Such remarks are humiliation for Muslims … Unfortunately there is war in our region between Muslim countries. The backward governments of some Muslim countries are fighting with other countries,”
Being an American, I am proud to have a president who is willing to stand up for his nation unlike his predecessor, President Hussein, who went down on his knees to kiss the behind of the mullahs when they attacked a small U.S. Naval vessel in open waters.

Walter Sieruk says
That bizarre statement by by Iran’s Ayatollah Khamenie shows just how unrealistic he actually is.
First, this is unrealistic just be the example of the fact that Iran is Shiite Islam and Saudi Arabia is Sunni Islam and the Muslims of both branches of Islam hate each other with a deep hate that has lasted for centuries. So to be totally “united” in their vicious hate of America and American people . seem rather unlikely, to say the least.
Second,If this hate of the Muslims ,for each other, of those two kinds of Islam in the malice against the USA can be overcome this would only reflect the common Middle Eastern Arab idea of “The enemy of my enemy is me friend.” This is a simplistic and shallow way of thinking is flawed and history has ,many times over, revealed that such a “philosophy” leads to disaster in the end.
Third. according to the Word of God, the Bible, a unity/alliance of false religion would would end in calamity for those who take part in it. For the Bible teaches in Proverbs 11:21. “Though they join forces, the wicked will not go unpunished.” [N.K.J.V.]
Ibrahim itace muhammed says
Apartheid evil united states and fascist evil zionist state of Israel are leading in hostility towards all muslims and as such hostile non muslim nations (Darul harb), while those non muslim nations like Russia and china who are not hostile to Muslims are friendly non-muslim nations (Daru sulh).
Those Idiot Arab monarchs like zionist saudi monarchs allying with evil united states and fascist evil zionist state of Israel against other muslim nations are sinners according to Quran
CogitoErgoSum says
I think those Muslim countries who ally themselves with the U.S. are just pretending to be friends with the U.S. and are using the aid they get from the U.S. to further the cause of Islam. They smile at the Americans while waiting for the right time to stab them in the back. You should know that, Ibrahim. You are being too harsh with your fellow Muslims. They know what they are doing. I would say your disagreement with them probably stems from who you think should rule the new Caliphate once it is established.

Don’t blame it on Israel. Muslims have been murdering one another for centuries. The three of the first four “Khalifs” of islam were murdered by fellow muslims! The violent, bloody, evil nature of islam existed for centuries among muslims and it is something that is inherent in islam itself.

True, Christianblood. Good post.

Ibrahim itace muhammed is just terrified that more and more Infidels are onto Islam, and understand what a threat it is to every non-Muslim.
Ray Jarman says
Ibrahim itace muhammed, Have you talked with the muslims in Uygur and Xinjiang about their ability to cause havoc in China?
You might wish to ask Akhmad Kadyrov. Oh I forgot, he was killed probably by his own seditionists during the Second Chechen War after switching sides. His son, Ramzan, knows how to survive; bow to Putin and swear allegiance to the Russian state and forgot all about jihad.
I personally feel that the Chinese understand how to keep the peace best for when a member of the cult attempts (or on occasion succeeds) to commit terror, he and the entire family are eliminated. Now that I think about it, this is probably the only good thing that I can recollect that the Chinese government since Mao with which I agree.
Tom says
There has always been inter denominational hatred between Sunni and Shia muslims since Mohammad declared himself the messenger of Allah.
They have been slaughtering each other for 1400 years and it isn’t about to stop any time soon.
Iran is obviously feeling vulnerable if the Ayatollah is suggesting a coalition between Sunni and Shia.
Trump’s pressure tactics are obviously working to have unnerved the biggest terror supporter in the middle east.

islam is so good, that in the end you want to kill every non muslim. But that is not good ? endless confusion.

Well, all Muslims hate Infidels, and call Kuffar lands “Dar-al-Harb” (the “House of War”).
