It appears now that the American victim of the insider jihad murder incident about which I posted here was a U.S. Army major general. He is a casualty of his government’s unshakable dogma that Islam is a religion of peace, and that therefore anyone who opposes the Taliban must be a moderate Muslim Jeffersonian whose loyalties cannot and must not be questioned.
“U.S. General Is Reportedly Killed by an Afghan Soldier,” by Matthew Rosenberg and Haris Kakar, New York Times, August 5, 2014 (thanks to Jack):
KABUL, Afghanistan — A United States Army major general was killed on Tuesday by an Afghan soldier, shot at close range at a military training academy on the outskirts of Kabul, an official of the American-led coalition and Afghan media reported Tuesday. The officer was the highest-ranking member of the American military to die in hostilities in the Afghanistan war.
The coalition official, who spoke on condition of anonymity and would not release the name of the major general, said an unspecified number of other service members of the American-led coalition and Afghan soldiers, including a senior Afghan commander were also shot. Their conditions were not known.
Other details of the shooting were sketchy, and the coalition official would only confirm that “an incident” had taken place at the Afghan National Army Officer Academy.
Tensions at the camp ran high in the immediate aftermath of the shooting, which took place around noon, and foreign troops appeared to be on edge, fearful of another attack.
Massoud Hossaini, a photographer for The Associated Press, said that he arrived at the camp’s gate ahead of other journalists, and just as coalition armored vehicles were pulling out of the compound. A coalition soldier manning the roof-mounted gun on one of the vehicles shouted for Mr. Hossaini to “get away,” and then fired an apparent warning shot.
“I don’t know what he fired. It was fired near our car,” he said, adding that he left the scene straight away.
The Afghan Defense Ministry said in a statement that a “few people were wounded” in the shooting, and that they had been immediately evacuated to a hospital. It described the attacker as “wearing Afghan National Army uniform,” which has long been a standard description offered after Afghan troops attack their foreign counterparts.
Other Afghan and coalition officials said they believed the shooter was an Afghan soldier. The coalition, in its brief statement, said the incident had involved “local Afghan and ISAF troops,” using the initials for the International Security Assistance Force, the formal name of the NATO-led coalition.
Sher Alam, an Afghan soldier guarding the entrance to the academy, located at Camp Qargha, said that senior Afghan and coalition officers had been meeting there on Tuesday, and that reports from inside the camp indicated that a number of the foreign officers were shot in the attack. He said that soon after the shooting, coalition helicopters landed inside the academy to evacuate the victims….

The lake of American blood our venerable Executive Mansion stands in is now up to its second floor windows — and soon right over the top.
John C. Barile says
If President Obama or Secretary Kerry eulogize the slain major general, their words will reek of hollow insincerity and denial of any executive responsibility for these deaths.
Descendantofacrusader says
And for me: those hollow lies that Kerry & Obama may utter in eulogizing this fallen Major General will be totally in line with the preposterousness of either of these buffoons awarding the Medal of Honor to one of our hero soldiers.
Jaladhi says
Trust a Muslim at your own risk. We are seeing the results in Afghanistan, Iraq,..
We have to be that foolish to keep doing it and get rewarded by Muslims in the way they know best. Murder is holy in Islam and every Muslim will do it without hesitating even for a nanosecond!!

IMPORTANT ! ! ! !
David Wood’s excellent video “The 3 stages of jihad” is now embedded in a post up currently ( but dated 8/4 ) about a female jihadist.
That vid runs 24:56, but you really only have to stick with it for 9:06 — through his discussion of stealth jihad.
PLEASE WATCH.
SEND THE URL BELOW ON TO YOUR FRIENDS AND ELECTED OFFICIALS — OR GIVE THEM THE VIDEO HOTLINK…

Excellent vid jihad3tracker. Enlightening info. And if anyone still has any doubts about whether Barrack Hussein Obama is a Muslim, they should watch this video.
There is also a short and simple one page (double-sided) pamphlet about the Three Stages of Jihad available under the “jihad” tab on the answeringmuslims.com website. All of us could print a stack of them and distribute at large.
It’s the 11th hour, and time to take action.
Daniel Triplett says
Another one of those undisciplined Muslims who became disciplined in a heartbeat.
None can be trusted. To ally with a Muslim is to ally with the Devil.
The Islamist says
What will a patriot do to those who invade his country?
Mustafa bin el San says
Take money and weapons from them, watch them build schools, roads and medical facilities, pretend to be an ally, then kill them in time-honoured treacherous manner.
Thou shalt kill thy neighbour (if he is filthy kaffir).
CogitoErgoSum says
You forgot to say, “Then destroy the schools, roads and medical facilities after the filthy kaffir builders have been slain.”
medina says
There is no such thing as a patriotic Muslim. Al’lah and his unquenchable lust for all things carnal — blood, deviancy, carnage — come first. Patriots of honorable nations protect the innocent and defend freedom. Muslims prey on the innocent and destroy freedom.
You’re not going to parade your barbaric cultic BS here.
CogitoErgoSum says
Do you really think of the Taliban as patriots fighting for Afghanistan…. when they are trying their best to wipe out all traces of any Afghan history prior to the Islamic conquest of Afghanistan? I don’t think they are patriots fighting for a unified country called Afghanistan. I think they are fighting to maintain a society based upon tribes and warlords and that they find reinforcement for that type of mentality through Islam. I don’t think patriotism or allegiance to a country called Afghanistan has anything to do with it.
jihad3tracker says
Thanks to medina and C.E.S. —
Your words sum up perfectly reality about Islam and its essence within “countries”…
islamisdeath says
You have invaded our countries and offer not one single positive addition to them.
First we are only in your rat hole country because you give asylum to those who come to our country and commit mass murder. Second while in your rat hole country we have built roads, schools, hospitals and more. We have tried to reach out and help you zombies. You are each and everyone psychopaths who are members of a death cult. Death cult zombies all.

…………………….
And what country would that be? Surely not Afghanistan, since he was supposed to be a soldier in the Afghan army.
What “The Islamist” means is Dar-al-Islam.
Never mind that the only reason we went into Afghanistan in the first place was because Osama bin Laden used the Taliban’s Afghanistan as a base from which to wage violent Jihad against us.
Of course, as The Islamist and other pious Muslims see it, the “filthy Kuffar” have no right to defend themselves against Jihad in any way
ApolloSpeaks says
ANOTHER US ARMY VICTIM
of workplace violence. That makes 14 under Obama’s watch.
WhatsUpDoc says
Its another incident of work place violence nothing to do with Jihad
Undaunted says
Officers of this rank usually have at least one Military Police “body-guard” which constitutes a “security detail.” The training for this particular MP job is not in-depth, they’re not really professionals, just guys with guns. I assume the dead MG had this “security detail” and if so, they screwed up big-time or were just out-gunned. I doubt that the detail was disarmed while at the academy but it’s not unheard of, to demand a body-guard surrender his weapon before entering a certain site. We shall see.
John M. Oda says
Here is another sad incident caused by our stupidity and the misunderstanding of the Islamic Culture thoroughly! I say, we need to educate our boys about these people. I always advised our boys in Iraq that there are THREE (3) things you need to keep in mind religiously to survive. 1) NEVER, EVER turn your back to the locals we have hired. Always keep him to YOUR SIDE or IN FRONT OF YOU but NEVER BEHIND YOU because, to them YOU ARE STILL AN INFIDEL and KILLING YOU IS A DUTY WHICH WILL TAKE THEM TO “JANNAT AL ISLAM”, aka Muslim’s Paradise! 2) Never, ever befriend them as if they were one of yours because, no matter how nice you become to them, they will still WANT TO KILL YOU! 3) Never JOKE and show close friendship with them because THEY ARE NOT AND WILL NEVER BE YOUR FRIENDS. As I said before, to them, YOU ARE AN INFIDEL AND AN INVADER OR OCCUPIER. Take a good lesson from Maj. Nidhal Hassan! He was born and raised in this country but he STILL HADE THAT HATE FEELING TOWARDS OUR SOLDIERS! Finally, please EDUCATE OUR BOYS NEVER TO BEFRIEND THESE FANATIC MUSLIMS BECAUSE, THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN THEIR LIVES IS “TO KILL YOU AND GO TO HEAVENS”!!
Daniel Triplett says
Excellent advice to all US/UK Servicemen John.
Lord knows they’ll never hear that as official guidance from the PC Pentagon Brass.
The Muslim CINC won’t allow them to define who our enemy really is.

Yet another clipping for my “smilers with knives” e-clipping file, which is very, very fat indeed.
Awhile ago, in the comments to a british newspaper’s online report on yet another of these sorts of attacks, someone posted a succinct summary of the problem.
It was the following Q and A.
“1/ Q. How do you turn a civilian into a Taliban?
A: Turn your back on him.
2/ Q – How do you turn a Taliban into a civilian?
A – Shoot him.”

‘Insider Killings’ in Afghanistan
cookibaker says
Sickening, what a tragic waste of talent ,military experience and for what?
Putin must be laughing his guts out at this ineptitude.If the Russians could not win there with their different “code of conduct”.Why does Emperor Zero, and his yes men, think he can?
Even the score I say, find their “leaders” and make them pay!Instead the Obama doctrine will be a huge cash influx.Like the 33 billion he wants to give the corrupt African states.
Thomas Wells says
Dressing a viper in a uniform with a gun and pretending that he is on your side, is a sure indication of early onset Alzheimer’s disorder.
PatnCats says
Well, I would certainly say if Robert Spencer had been allowed to continue with his classes to the Military, CIA, Homeland Security, etc. things may have a different outcome. KNOWING the KORAN and the absolute HATRED of all things non-muslim, we would KNOW never to have an armed Afghan around important and critical people such as the General. More shame to our ‘islama-o-blind’ leaders. For shame.
