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

Islamic State glorifies Sydney siege jihadi Man Haron Monis

Dec 31, 2014 5:24 am By Robert Spencer

Man Haron MonisWestern authorities and the media establishment have hastened to assure us that Man Haron Monis was simply mentally ill, and that’s why he took hostages in the Lindt Chocolat Cafe and had some of them hold the black flag of jihad to the window. The Islamic State, however, has a different view.

“Sydney siege gunman Man Haron Monis glorified in Islamic State propaganda magazine Dabiq,” by Matthew Knott, Sydney Morning Herald, December 30, 2014:

Man Haron Monis has been hailed a hero by an Islamic State propaganda magazine for his actions during the siege in which two hostages were killed.

Sydney siege gunman Man Haron Monis features prominently in newly released Islamic State propaganda material which urges would-be terrorists to mimic his “daring raid” on the Lindt cafe in Martin Place.

In the foreword to the sixth edition of Dabiq, Islamic State’s official English-language magazine, the terrorist group says Monis’ actions “brought terror to the entire nation” and erased his history of “shirk and transgression”.

Islamic State uses Dabiq as an important recruitment and propaganda tool.

“This month, an attack was carried out in Sydney by Man Haron Monis, a Muslim who resolved to join the mujāhidīn of the Islamic State in their war against the crusader coalition,” the magazine’s foreword says.

“He did not do so by undertaking the journey to the lands of the Khilāfah and fighting side-by-side with his brothers but rather, by acting alone and striking the kuffār [non-believers] where it would hurt them most – in their own lands and on the very streets that they presumptively walk in safety.

“It didn’t take much; he got hold of a gun and stormed a cafe taking everyone inside hostage. Yet in doing so, he prompted mass panic, brought terror to the entire nation, and triggered an evacuation of parts of Sydney’s central business district. The blessings in his efforts were apparent from the very outset.”

The foreword continues: “After a lengthy standoff, brother Man Haron Monis was killed. His daring raid ended with two kāfir hostages dead, and four others wounded, including a police officer. Thus, he added his name to the list of Muslims who answered the Khilāfah’s call to strike those waging war against the Islamic State wherever they may be, and thereby has his past history of shirk and transgression completely erased…”

The magazine features a full-page colour photograph of Monis and contains quotes attributed to him on his conversion from Shia to Sunni Islam.

Past editions of Dabiq, which is named after a town in Syria, urged would-be jihadists to keep their plots small and their strategies simple, involving as few people as possible.

“At this point of the crusade against the Islamic State, it is very important that attacks take place in every country that has entered into the alliance against the Islamic State, especially the US, UK, France, Australia and Germany,” the fourth edition urged.

“The citizens of crusader nations should be targeted wherever they can be found.”…

    It’s an interesting thing that jihadists are more credible and tell the truth way more often than kuffar authorities. Just who are the ‘real’ Mahoundians anyway.
    It’s hard to tell without a score card.

      Yes, ‘real Islam’ is expressed in their statement: he “brought terror to the entire nation”.

      This expresses Allah’s eternal commandment K.8.60 “TURHIBUNNA” (terrorize them).

    Don’t Dare tell us where this Shitload Magazine is Printed ..Us Dhimmi want to Protest there But we will probably All be Arrested because we are not Islamic !!

    “The citizens of crusader nations should be targeted wherever they can be found.”
    What gives them that idea? Koran 9: 5 “Kill the unbelievers wherever you find them”.

    • mortimer says

      Dec 31, 2014 at 7:43 am

      That means ‘kill’ virtually everybody.

          Happy New Year to you, particolor, Robert, marc, and all our freedom fighter friends.
          Keep fighting and never submit.
          Despite of all the atrocities we read about on this site, WE. ARE. WINNING.
          Islam is nothing but a paper tiger, a dangerous but a mortally wounded beast. Its days are numbered.

    Monis was wearing a black headband with the inscription, in Arabic: “We are ready to sacrifice for you, O Mohammad” (The Guardian. 2014.12.16).
    Was Monis “associating a partner” with Allah? That is shirk, unbelief.
    Was Monis praying to the deceased Messenger, instead of Allah?
    Monis was not that good a role model.

      I guess he decided to go right to the top of the chain of command and pledge directly to Muhammad who was the one who gave his orders to Allah to provide desired revelations to give back to Muhammad whenever it was convenient to Mo.

    Thank you. See, this is a point I’ve been trying to hammer home when people (mostly muslims) say “oh, that was not a ‘real’ muslim, he drunk/gambled/ate pork/did something else forbidden by islam”. Engaging in jihad cleans one’s sins, plain and simple. You die in jihad, you go to paradise. It’s that simple, and it’s an effective recruitment tool – a recruiter can say something like “you’re smoking, you have kuffar friends, you’re living with your girlfriend without being married, you’re going to hell when you die. But there’s a way to clear your sins and ensure a place in paradise”.

      Jihad as a wild card escape to earn an extra scale-tipping bonus of brownie points with Allah and escape the relentless condemnation of spiteful Muslim neighbors who secretly delight with Islamic schadenfreude displays of self-righteous piety under the cover of feigned modesty every time they covertly rat out one of their fellow Muslims.
      It is surprising that more Muslims don’t escape this way.

    Obama claims the world is safer from terrorism
    — (by unnamed ‘fundamentalist’ religious radicals)

    There sure is a lot of ‘workplace violence’ going on in the name of Islam.

    • Keith says

      I wonder if President Obama classes WW1 & WW2 as workplace violence?

    “..to mimic his “daring raid” on the Lindt cafe in Martin Place.”

    DARING raid?
    Attacking unarmed civilians is not a “daring raid” it’s simoly an act of COWARDICE.
    But hey, Muhammad did it, so it must be “daring”!!!

    In Bukhari 3.46.717 we read about a “daring” Mohammedan raid…

    “Narrated Ibn Aun:
    I wrote a letter to Nafi and Nafi wrote in reply to my letter that the Prophet had suddenly attacked Bani Mustaliq without warning while they were heedless and their cattle were being watered at the places of water…”

    Muhammad was a coward to the core.

    Islam is shirk-submission fetish to that secretly worships Vanity while married to a beast named Allah.

    Australia is just as stupid as the rest of us in their immigration policy. Even Communists were excluded during the Cold War, and those guys were boy scouts compared to the mentally ill followers of Comrad Mo.

    Crusade: “to lead or take part in an energetic and organized campaign concerning a social, political or RELIGIOUS cause”. Synonyms: “fight, do battle, agitate, take up arms”.

    Excuse me but look at the counter on this page: 24,726 terror attacks by Muslims since 9/11.

    Who is having a “crusade” around here?

    I believe you have to be mentally deprived to be a radical. They all should be castrated.

    Take a good look at the expression on his face.
    Now take another look.

    If you have contact with Muslims you will see that facial expression from time to time.

    “Islamic State uses Dabiq as an important recruitment and propaganda tool.”

    What is the significance of Dabiq?

    You’ve heard of Mecca and Medina. Now learn why Syria’s Dabiq is almost as important to ISIS
