Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Afghan lawmaker: “Jihad is legitimate against the U.S.”

Feb 2, 2014 10:59 pm By Robert Spencer

KhawasiThis is not a member of the Taliban. This is a member of Parliament — i.e., one of the “moderates” that we are expending blood and treasure to support. “Afghan Lawmaker Abdul Sattar Khawasi: ‘Jihad Is Legitimate Against The U.S., And Silence Against The U.S. Is An Act In Violation Of Religion,’” from MEMRI, January 27 (thanks to Pamela Geller):

Following are excerpts from an Afghan media report about Abdul Sattar Khawasi, a member of parliament from Afghanistan’s Parwan province, urging jihad against America:

“A news agency received video clips from an anonymous source showing Parwan MP Abdul Sattar Khawasi calling on residents of Ghorband District to launch jihad against the U.S. Although the exact date of the video footage has yet to be confirmed, the clips clearly show Khawasi at a public gathering in Ghorband promoting jihad against the U.S. ‘Jihad is legitimate against the U.S., and silence against the U.S. is an act in violation of religion, I am obligated to tell you,’ Khawasi says in part of the video.”

      Jim, Muslims only use Taqiyya when they believe they are weak and need to lie to and fool the Infidel.

      When they believe they are strong—as they do today in Afghanistan—the mask comes off.

    yes, Abdul, from your perspective, jihad against the US is legitimate.

    that’s because the US still treasures freedom of speech, freedom of conscience. … and you don’t

    we still prefer to encourage women to become educated and seek to accomplish great things. … and you don’t

    we still prefer to support a legal system that is fair. … and you don’t

    you don’t because you can’t. SHARIA limits you and makes you ignorant of many possibilities human beings, such as yourself, may seek.

    your Allah god (unknowable; best of all deceivers) enslaves you, limits you, to seeking blood and vengeance against other human beings – descended from Adam and Eve, just as you.

    This article uses the phrase “Afghan Lawmaker” as if that means something. It doesn’t. Their “parliament” is still just a bunch of tribal leaders sitting around figuring out how they can continue to oppress women, beat, imprison, and kill men and women, abuse their children, etc., all to appease their evil “Allah.” If they had a volcano, they’d be throwing people into it to appease the volcano gods.

    We sent our soldiers to die in Afghanistan for this?
