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

Premature detonation in Afghanistan: 13 killed, including nine jihadists, as their car bomb explodes prematurely

Mar 2, 2014 5:16 pm By Robert Spencer

AFGHANISTANcarbombMuhammad said: “Five are regarded as martyrs: They are those who die because of plague, abdominal disease, drowning or a falling building etc., and the martyrs in Allah’s cause.” (Bukhari 4.52.82) Although he is recorded as saying thousands of things, however, he was silent about whether or not someone who blows himself up with his own jihad bomb is considered a martyr. Maybe these nine jihadis can get at least one set of 72 virgins — that’s eight apiece. After all, they tried to murder some Infidels.

Note the headline: AP follows universal journalistic practice. When the perpetrator is an Islamic jihadist, suddenly there is no actor at all in the headline. The car bomb just decided that today would be a good day to kill 13 people.

“Car bomb in eastern Afghanistan kills 13,” by Rahim Faiez for the Associated Press, March 2 (thanks to Twostellas):

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — A militant car bomb prematurely exploded overnight in eastern Afghanistan, killing nine insurgents and four civilians, authorities said Sunday.

The blast happened in Logar province, some 10 kilometers (six miles) north of the capital, Pul-e-Alam, said Din Mohammad Darwesh, a spokesman for the provincial governor.

Darwesh said it appeared insurgents, who he identified as three Afghans and six Pakistanis, set off the bomb too early.

“Unfortunately, the explosion completely destroyed a nearby civilian house in which two women and two children were killed,” he said in a telephone interview. “Police and local residents retrieved the bodies.”

Two days earlier, additional Afghan soldiers deployed to the capital after receiving an intelligence report about a possible attack.

Meanwhile Sunday, a lone suicide bomber entered a police station in southern Kandahar province, though officers’ fire forced him to detonate his explosive vest early, only wounding one civilian, said Zia Durrani, spokesman for Kandahar’s police chief.

Also in Kandahar, 12 Taliban escaped from the 1,200-inmate Kandahar Prison after a prison employee falsely put their names on a list of detainees who were scheduled for release, Durrani said. The men walked out of the prison and the prison employee has disappeared, he said. Two of the 12 have been recaptured, he said….

        Unfortunately you cannot perceive the evil powers that are behind Islam. Islam is a doctrine of demons. the Bible says Satan masquerades as an angel of light with a counterfeit gospel. This is exactly what happened with Mohammed and has led to the misery that is islam

      And according to Mohammed’s own words, that would make the 3,000 victims of the WTC all martyrs!

      I think Satan is from Hindu lands. There’s a town in Hindu called Satana. Satan might mean “true one”, was a god but was given a slight name change and then demonized by the conquering religion.
      I heard that Allah was from an old pagan god called Alila or similar. Muslims that i know hate and fear pagans because of the magic connection, which Muslims use darkly, muttering spells under their breath, and all sorts of low level stuff, typical cowardly bullies, but it’s not their fault, they’re brainwashed into it, but somewhere deep inside they must know it’s wrong to kill infidels, it’s a deep lie they live, and the consequences of living such a deep lie is cancer of the governing entity, which in this case is Allah Islam, and it’s spreading, and it’s creeping, and when the tide of its creeping begins to turn then the vampire Allah Islam is gonna freak right f******* out.
      It just takes that wall of world cooperation to stop it, but the leaders

    “When the perpetrator is an Islamic jihadist… “—

    As opposed to a Catholic, Shinto and Rastafarian jihadist? Muslims, Muslims, MUSLIMS! When the victimizers are MUSLIM!

    Don’t criticize the media when you follow in their footsteps using similar wordage.

    I feel sad for the two children in nearby houses who were killed in the explosion.

    If they were *little* children who were not yet old enough to have fully internalised and actively embraced the venomous hatred of the Infidels, the najis kuffar, which the mohammedan world into which they were born would have already been instilling into them.

    There was a journalist a while ago who was held captive by the Taliban in Pakistan. During his captivity, he saw what kind of TV viewing one of his captors thought appropriate for his (that is, the Taliban member’s) toddler son. **Beheading videos**. Not faked ones. *Real* ones, with real victims screaming, gurgling, and dying.

    *We* show our children “Teletubbies” and “Postman Pat” and “Playschool”.

    *They* give their poor little toddlers *real live beheading videos* to watch. Killing their souls. Giving them over to be inhabited by demons.

    Oops! I don’t believe this little mishap was the work of God — but it’s welcome news nonetheless, aside from the civilians who died.

    Better nine dead jihadis and four dead civilians, than no dead jihadis and possibly dozens of dead civilians, as it might have been, had these representatives of the Religion of Peace been more competent.

    Another case of premature jihadulation — it’s just too bad more muslimes weren’t killed.

    The car bomb was probably marginalized and impoverished.

    These are the only kind of Muslims that non Muslims should respect.They get the 72 virgins and do not hurt anyone else. Good work!

    Makes me think of the happy ending of the movie “Traitor”. The jihadi bomber is on the bus filled with people and stands up yelling “All up in the snack bar.” Then all the other passengers yell for him to stop and before they can explain they are all bombers all the passengers on the bus explode since they were all bombers on the same bus.
