Jihad registration. If this catches on worldwide, it will give Western officials something new to do: just as now they assure us that this or that incident had nothing to do with terrorism on the basis of the perpetrator not being a known member of Al-Qaeda or some other terrorist group, so then they will assure the public that the latest incident of violence and terror wasn’t really jihad, since the perpetrator was unregistered.
From Garowe Online News, with thanks to the Constantinopolitan Irredentist:
Islamic Courts officials told hundreds of supporters at a rally in Mogadishu that an office would be opened for would-be fighters to register.
The Islamist officials, who were speaking to supporters at Friday’s anti-foreign peacekeepers rally in Mogadishu, said the office would be used to register fighters for a jihad against foreign troops.
The Islamists have repeatedly threatened to wage jihad against a proposed plan to deploy African Union peacekeepers to reinforce the Baidoa-based interim Somali government.
