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

Lebanon: Sunni jihad-martyrdom suicide bomber murders five people by blowing himself up in Hizballah stronghold

“Interior Minister Marwan Charbel said the suicide bomber was driving a Grand Cherokee and blew himself up at a gas station.” What a waste of a good Jeep.

The Sunni-Shi’ite jihad was reignited in recent years by the toppling of Saddam Hussein in Iraq and the U.S. establishment there of a Shi’ite client state of Iran. Then the “Arab Spring” uprisings, which were essentially Sunni Islamic supremacists working to impose Sharia upon the Middle East and North Africa, spread the Sunni-Shi’ite jihad to Syria. From there it has now come to Lebanon.

“Car bomb explodes in eastern Lebanon,” from Al Arabiya, February 1:

A suicide bomber driving a vehicle blew himself up in the Lebanese town of Hermel, a Hezbollah stronghold, killing at least five people on Saturday, the interior ministry said.

Interior Minister Marwan Charbel said the suicide bomber was driving a Grand Cherokee and blew himself up at a gas station.

Television footage showed a major blaze in the area of the explosion.

The state news agency said the sire of explosion is near a school and a building housing a charity connected to a prominent cleric in the Shiite-dominated town.

The blast was the second explosion in the town of Hermel in less than three weeks.

Sunni militant groups have claimed responsibility for attacks on Shiite parts of Lebanon in retaliation for the Shiite Hezbollah group sending its fighters into Syria’s civil war.

    Cannibalism is normative Islam, rather than an aberration.
    It started with Mohammed who assassinated others who stood in his way to crawl to the top. Historians believe Mohammed was likely poisoned by Abu Bakr and Omar who had motives, since they both became caliph. Abu Bakr was probably poisoned by Omar. Omar was stabbed for revenge. Mohammed’s descendants and relatives were murdered by other Muslims. Many caliphs murdered the opposing dynasties and their families.

    At war with everything and everybody including themselves.

    Islam is the snake that eats it’s own body.

      In that sense, Islam is just like the Communist regimes that came to power around the world during the 20th century. They also devoured themselves through purges, man-made famines and countless other crimes committed by the leaders of Coomunist countries. Currently, North Korea is still being destroyed by its rulers in this same way.

    I, for one, am quite upset.

    ONLY FIVE Shiites killed. (The article says ” at least five people”)–but since when are Muslims people?

    People don’t attack women and children; hide behind women; and place their rockets, etc in civilian areas and schools.

    Muslims do.

    Even (most, if not all) animals try to protect their young. Muslims do not.

    So, why insult people by calling them that?

    And, again–only five killed? If it were 55 it would be better and 550 better yet.
