Jihad Watch

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

Video: Robert Spencer on Sun TV on Sharia, Boko Haram and the Sultan of Brunei

May 9, 2014 5:49 pm By Robert Spencer

Last night on Michael Coren’s Sun TV show I discussed these topics with guest host Alex Pierson (summary and video courtesy AlohaSnackbar01):

1) Islamophobia! The international community finally – finally! – wakes up to the threat posed by Boko Haram after the Islamic jihad group kidnaps hundreds of young girls in Nigeria. Whatever ever happened to “who are we to criticize?”

2) Islamophobia! Hollywood celebrities put down the canapes long enough to protest the Sultan of Brunei, owner of two Beverly Hills hotels, and the newly-implemented Sharia law in his country. Surely Brunei’s move is a reaction to Western colonialism. Or poverty. Or something.

    Wife beating, slavery, pedophilia, the death penalty for gays and apostates, etc.

    All made permissible to Muslims by way of Islamic theology and law.

    But don’t talk about this in public or you might get arrested for “Islamophobia”.

    John Kerry super-DHIM-wit! Without studying Sharia law, Kerry believes he understands Islam! Could he understand Catholicism without knowing canon law? No.

    The ‘Grievance Theory’ that Kerry loves claims that ideology has little to do with violence against the West. Kerry thinks ‘deprived’ individuals fight for more money. THEY FIGHT FOR THEIR 72 VIRGINS and for ISLAMIC HONOR!

    Many jihadists are well-educated and from privileged homes, just as many TOP NAZIS were from privileged families and had Ph.Ds !!!

    The grievance is ALLAH’S GRIEVANCE. Muslims are commanded to kill those who reject Islam.

    Someone put THIS under Post Turtle Kerry’s nose. It’s been around since April 1, 2011:

    http://politics.as.nyu.edu/docs/IO/4600/Clare_Richardson_terrorism.pdf

    “Perhaps the most glaring misconception about terrorism is the assumption that terrorists are underprivileged, uneducated individuals on the fringe of society. Increasingly, empirical studies of terrorism have demonstrated that such a notion is flawed. Not only is there no empirical basis for this perception, but terrorism also appears to be more of a desirable undertaking than a last resort for many individuals.”

    “As detailed in a paper by Alan Krueger and Jitka Malecková (2003), as well as a later study by Alan Krueger and David Laitin (2008), terrorists tend to be more highly educated and from wealthier families than the average population.”

    Krueger and Malecková (2003) demonstrate the desirability of terrorism by citing a report from UN relief worker Nasra Hassan, who quotes a Hamas leader as saying the organization’s biggest problem is “the hordes of young men who beat on our doors, clamoring to be sent [on suicide missions].”

    I would take ANYTHING that Hamas says with a large spoon of salt (or taqiyya).

    “Krueger notes in “What Makes a Terrorist” (2007) that the highly educated are more likely to become politically polarized, either entering into government service or engaging in political violence.”

    Theh ya go, Mr. Turtle, not enuff gubment jobs, so theys blows emselvs up.

    Better late than never!
    Yep, the world is finally waking up to the threat posed by all islamic groups.

    In Egypt, some 12,000 freelance preachers have been barred from delivering sermons. The Religious Endowments Ministry, or Awqaf in Arabic, now sets strict guidelines for sermons, and anyone who strays from them in Egypt’s more than 100,000 mosques risks removal.

    Read it all here:

    Every politician in office and those running for office need to answer this national security question: “Is the Muslim Brotherhood in North America (MB) (Ikhwan) our friend or foe? Please provide me with links to the source material that provides you with your view(s).” The plan they wrote to destroy us was presented as evidence in the 2007 Holy Land Foundation trial and was uncontested by defense during trial and during the appeals process however, neither the House nor Senate will hold hearings on it! This is a gross violation of their Oath of Office, the Constitution and their failure to “provide for common defense” of this nation. You can buy a copy of their plan to destroy America at Amazon for only $5.00 An Explanatory Memorandum: From the Archives of the Muslim Brotherhood in America or, you can read an online copy here at The Oak Initiative website: http://www.theoakinitiative.org/pdfs/teamb/15-Shariah-The-Threat-to-America-Team-B-Report-Web-285-308.pdf
    Go to the Center for Security Policy and read the material on An Explanatory Memorandum: From the Archives of the Muslim Brotherhood in America http://www.centerforsecuritypolicy.org/2013/05/25/an-explanatory-memorandum-from-the-archives-of-the-muslim-brotherhood-in-america

    Boko Haram = Islamic jihad murders.

    Late in the day, we are now seeing some politically limp articles in the ‘liberal-left’ media about the horrendous Islam-inspired violence in Nigeria.

    ‘Jihadwatch’ and ‘Atlas Shrugs’ have rightly been banging on about this for years, but now we are getting some ignorant ‘foot in the water’ MSM articles which exonerate Islam for inspiring extreme violence, and instead vaguely blame ‘poverty’ for murderous immorality.

    “Nigeria: a nation in fear of becoming the next Rwanda.
    “The #bringbackourgirls campaign has gripped the world’s attention.
    But why has the country’s horror story gone unheard until now?”

    This is a particularly savage Islam Jihad group.

    I’d put the Chechens up against the Bokos anytime. It might be racist for me to say that, but what the heck everything is racist nowadays… if you’re a caucasian.

    Here is why the mainstream media and liberal politicians are taking notice of this kidnapping event. It’s girls, and no one else, who were kidnapped. It’s good that some notice and action are being taken. But it is nothing but feminism that is causing the good thing to happen. Feminism is evil; but sometimes even it can get fired up to do something good, for the wrong reason.

    As for the lecherous Leno, he should retire into the woods somewhere and get acquainted with something more substantial than entertainment, finally.

    Only when Hollywood is poked directly in its eye will it stand against evil.

    How would one make sure they woke up to reality, if they still repeat the meme “extreme”/’extremism”

    They still say those acts are not influenced by normative/real/common/accepted/true islam but by “extreme”/atypical views on islam.

    They denounce those acts yet they still make sure to tell us “this is not real islam”. They denounce yet they still try to make sure we understand “this is not real islam” . They have yet to wake up.

    Waking up means accepting that the motivation of boko haram and the sultan of Brunéi is REAL islam and calling it by its given name: (real/true) islam.
