Afghanistan: Jihad suicide bomber attacks play condemning suicide bombings

Dec 12, 2014 2:44 am By Robert Spencer

car wreckage afghanistanBecause it “insulted Islamic values.” As in the values enunciated here: “Indeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties for that they will have Paradise. They fight in the cause of Allah, so they kill and are killed.” (Qur’an 9:111)

Anyway, clearly the Taliban can operate with impunity, and a well-developed sense of irony, in Kabul: “German killed in Kabul attack on play condemning suicide bombings,” by Hamid Shalizi, Reuters, December 11, 2014 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

KABUL (Reuters) – A teenaged bomber on Thursday targeted a Kabul auditorium packed with people watching a drama condemning suicide attacks and being staged at a French cultural center, killing a German man and wounding 16 people, officials and a witness said.

The suicide blast was the second to strike the Afghan capital in a day, after six Afghan soldiers perished when their bus was hit on the outskirts of the city as they rode into work.

The violence, part of a nationwide campaign by Islamist Taliban insurgents to strike at military and civilian targets, came less than three weeks before the year-end deadline for most foreign combat soldiers to withdraw from the country.

General Ayoub Salangi, head of the Interior Ministry while the cabinet is being finalised, said the suspected theater bomber appeared to have been about 17 years old and detonated his explosives at the venue during an early evening performance.

“I heard a deafening explosion … There were Afghans, foreigners, young girls and young boys watching the show,” Sher Ahmad, an Afghan rights activist who was at the performance, told Reuters.

He said the blast came during a performance of a new play called “Heartbeat: Silence After the Explosion”, a condemnation of suicide attacks.

“Pieces of flesh were plastered on the wall. There were children and women crying for help. Some were running out, some were just screaming.”

Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said the bomber targeted the event because it was staged “to insult Islamic values and spread propaganda about our jihad operations, especially on suicide attacks”….

    This has to be some kind of pinnicale in Islamic lunatic-level irony!

    Two stories at this heady level in just two days! The one about Joe “brain dead” Biden presuming to “correct” Ayaan Hirsi Ali about Islam, and now this one! Both mind-boggling in their unintentional black humour.

    It’s like we’re getting glimpses into another dimension that no fiction writer could make up.

    to insult Islamic values

    I’m not to sure what those values are, they are sort of hard to find. Next time see Joe Biden or John Kerry, I will ask them. I’m sure they know.

    I had to laugh at the picture of the car. I have owned and driven a number of cars that look just like that. The one I have now is not much better. I call it my ‘push mobile’, because you have to push it to start it…

    “..the suspected theater bomber appeared to have been about 17 years old..”

    Notice that it’s always the gullible follower that has to do the dirty job. Have we ever heard of a Mullah, Ayatollah, Mufli, Imam, etc. blowing himself up?
    That’s because Muslim leaders are liars and cowards – just like their prophet.

    Here again it’s very much needed ,after this suicide/homicide bombing, that a reiteration of the fact that such a murderous jihad attack is the outcome of the extreme brainwashing that is done by the imams and mullahs in Islamic mind programming centers which are known as mosque’s and madrasas. In those place people are strongly indoctrinated into believing in the Islamic doctrine/story from the Koran,as in 44:54. 55:56. 78:31., of a lust filled paradise with many virgins, houris, in it for the male Muslim who dies in the jihad for the cause of Islam. Such false teaches as these imams and mullahs who ingrain a such a belief as lust filled place with many virgins into the hearts and minds of others is warns about in the Bible.. Which reads “in Second Peter 2:18. “They speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lust of the flesh…” Furthermore, many a times a Muslim in his death recording speaks about “the wedding with the virgins” that he will have after he becomes a “martyr.” Such a belief Jesus would denounce as being based on false teachings. For Jesus taught “Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God. For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angles in heaven.” Matthew 22:29:30. In contrast to the Islamic pipe dream of the jihadist in the Koranic story/doctrine of a place with virgins, Christians have the reality of Second Peter 1:16. Which reads “For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ…” [K.J.V.]

    As it can clearly be seen from the islamic suicide bomber blowing himself up on a play condemning suicide bombing, islam does not approve of suicide bombings.

      Nor of plays about suicide bombings

    If those imams and mullahs really believe that engaging in a such bombing is so grand then they should go out and commit the suicide bombing. They won’t the cowards! these Muslim clerics only brainwash other people in wanting to do it, misleading them to thinking of that terrible and murderous act as ” a martyrdom operation.”
