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

Norway: Laughing men hoist Islamic State flags in Oslo; EU expert says jihad songs used at beheadings “not extremism”

Oct 6, 2014 2:51 pm By Nicolai Sennels

Notice how the “EU expert” on Islamic extremism claims that jihad songs are not “extremism”: that’s the kind of people assessing the danger we are in… Translated from VG. Sign up for more exclusive translation and support at 10news.dk.

The same day that the United States bombed Syria and Ubaydullah Hussain (29) appeared in Oslo court on charges of incitement to terror, several men drove around in Oslo waving an Islamic State flag. The men’s behaviour was a source of worry, and the police were quickly notified.

“They laughed,” one witness told VG. … The witness said to VG that four cars drove back and forth in Tøyengata in Greenland (a Muslim-dominated area with a high rape risk https://www.politi.no/vedlegg/lokale_vedlegg/oslo/Vedlegg_1309.pdf) in Oslo. In two of the cars, an Islamic State flag stuck out of the window.

“They waved the IS flag, while they played the same song which the IS terrorists play in the videos where they are beheading people,” says the witness.

“They try to spread hate and fear,” said another witness who saw the scene. …

Magnus Ranstorp is a researcher at the Swedish Defence Academy and has led a working group of the EU to prevent Syria warriors. “When it comes to music, it is not problematic. It is a ‘nasheed,’ a kind of battle song, music and poetry, and does not have anything to do with extremism,” he said.

Police have received several reports of someone running around with an IS flag in the city center, but cannot confirm who was in the car. “It was frightening to the public, but it is doubtful whether it is a crime,” says operations chief Tor Grøttum.

    Time to start ideological warfare to remove credibility of Islam and cause Muslims to drop away from this repulsive DEATH CULT.

    Well, I surely hope Islamists in the USA realize you wont have to worry about this being illegal, as if you do this down the street here you are very liable to get shot.

      And with good reason! If I saw this coming down my street I would feel in danger of imminent beheading or rape and use self-defense.

    These Muslim Jew-hating bastards that have now made Norway almost if not totally ‘JUDENREIN’ should now be made to suffer dearly for what they have perpetrated against the defenceless Jewish community, fire-bombing Synagogues, desecrating and smashing Jewish graves, beating up Jewish people etc. etc.. I t would be so nice to have 500 Israeli ex-IDF soldiers on a supposedly vacation to Norway, having beforehand all intelligence of the various Muslim jew-hating groups, then beating the living daylights out of them, frightening their whole stinking community, that they will only think of returning to their shit holes where those slime originated from.

    It not enough that once upon a time there was around one million Jewish people living in the Middle East and north Africa, however from just before the inception of the Jewish state of Israel in May 1948 life became intolerable for Jewish communities to remain in their Arab homeland (in many instances living there for some 2,600 years and around 1,200 years before the dawning of Islam).
    They were harassed, tortured, murdered, they became scapegoats for the Arab regimes because all five Arab Armies couldn’t defeat the newly established fledgeling State of Israel so the jews of the Arab world were made to suffer as a consequence, they were either kicked out or ran for their lives from the barbarism that was directed against them, they had to leave all their real estate behind, their bank accounts were frozen, their personal belongings such as some jewellery etc. stolen from them . It didn’t end there, now today the Arab and Muslim Immigrants who settled in European countries today such as France, Holland, Belgium, the Scandinavian countries are hounding out the Jews from those places also, by importing their Jew-hatred into their adopted countries making life miserable as well as dangerous for the Jewish communities especially in those designated countries and to a lesser degree in Germany and the UK.

    “When it comes to music, it is not problematic. It is a ‘nasheed,’ a kind of battle song, music and poetry, and does not have anything to do with extremism ..”

    Excuse me? A Muslim battle song, triumphantly performed under threatening circumstances, is NOT a problem?

  7. Alarmed Pig Farmer says

    The EU Expert on Islamic extremism is right: the beheading song is not Islamic extremism, it is Islamic normalism, as in Islamic activism. Surely you have noticed of late that the terms Islamic radicals and Islamic extremists has become pro forma, a required predicate. The predicate has no basis in Islam, but Islamic normalism sure does.

    I’d say let’s call a spade a spade, but that would be racist, and, after all, Islam is not based on race. It only claims it is when the opportunity arises to take prerogative from the race card.

    A number of European countries have laws against advocating Nazism or displaying Nazi symbols.

    Symbols of JIHAD should be ILLEGAL as well as the PREACHING of JIHAD!

    Jihad is such an evil doctrine that it is proof that Islam is false.

    • mortimer says

      Oct 6, 2014 at 8:06 pm

      The Saudi national flag is also a symbol of jihad.

      It should be as illegal as the Nazi flag is illegal in many countries!

      Let’s ban jihad symbols in ALL CIVILIZED countries! The Saudi flag is a jihad flag too.

    Must feel about the same as Norway in April of 1940 when the Nazis took control…the cancer is growing but God forbid you treat it, it might get offended. Shameful.

      The most criminal of the 1940-days are that the socialist government *kept* being pacifist, criminally pacifist I might add, even after they fled to England. All they thought about was securing the political power for themselves when they came back, after hoping others would free the country for them.

      Re: todays nazism. Just as “But Germany is a culture People” was used to excuse the ever rising nazism in the 30s and into 1940, nowadays it is the universal “But there are nice muslims too” that are used to excuse the rise of islam.

    An ISIS flag and the songs are just youthful exuberance. You know how it is when the boys from the ummah get together: Beat up a few infidels, capture a sex slave here and there, gang rape some cute school girls, cut off a few heads, shoot some cops. They are just expressing themselves in terms of their own cultural zeitgeist. Let’s not be judgmental – that would be racist.

    Flag waving is part of the first amendment or the freedom of speech.
    If you outlaw the swastika then you must also outlaw the Star of David or the
    crucifix. Norway is not a free country in that it does not have a first amendment.
    If you outlaw hate speech then you outlaw the Gospel, which is full of hate speech you outlaw Marxism, which is full of hate speech against capitalism, if the truth sets us free then you cannot outlaw hate speech since that would outlaw the truth about Islam. In other words you outlaw “Jihad Watch” Norway is threatened with extinction by Islam and the best way to explain that is for Islamists to be waving the flag of ISIS.

    so everyone needs to get worried & worked up when people somewhere tweet things that are critical of Islam? But if Muslims in real life display flags of terrorist organisations and sing hate filled songs it is nothing to worry about?
    Double standards anyone?

    “Nothing to do with extremism”……
    Of course: it is the new “nothing to do with Islam”.

    It is a ‘nasheed,’ a kind of battle song, music and poetry, and does not have anything to do with extremism,” he said.
    ………………………………….

    Well, he’s right—but only in the sense that waging violent Jihad and beheading innocent Infidels is not considered “extreme” in Islam, but is perfectly mainstream…

    But what else should we expect of a place in whose capital—Oslo—every single stranger rape over the past five years has been perpetrated by Muslim immigrants?

    Suicidal madness….
