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

Ramadan in Nigeria: Jihad bomb found in church before it could explode

Jul 12, 2015 3:11 pm By Robert Spencer

Nigerian ChristiansRamadan is the month in which Muslims are expected to renew and increase their devotion to Allah. Since jihad against non-Muslims is in Islamic theology an act of devotion to Allah, it becomes more virulent during Ramadan.

“Explosives found at church in Jos, central Nigeria: police,” Agence France Presse, July 12, 2015 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

JOS, Nigeria: Explosives were found at a church in the central Nigerian city of Jos Sunday, police told AFP, adding that the device went off but there were no casualties.

“It was averted because the bomb was detected by the church’s security personnel. There were no casualties,” said Emmanuel Abuh, spokesman for the state police in Plateau, of which Jos is the capital.

The incident in the north of the city came a week after a suicide bomber blew himself up at a church in the northeastern city of Potiskum, killing the pastor and four other worshippers.

Jos was also targeted last Sunday, when Boko Haram militants fired on a mosque, including with a rocket-propelled grenade, and also hit a restaurant popular with travellers from the restive northeast….

        They do make a few exceptions:

        The Sunnies do kill Shiites.

    Ramadan in Nigeria: Jihad bomb found in church before it could explode

    Ramadan is the month in which Muslims are expected to renew and increase their devotion to Allah. Since jihad against non-Muslims is in Islamic theology an act of devotion to Allah, it becomes more virulent during Ramadan.
    ………………………………

    Yes, indeed. Every religious holiday in every faith works to increase the devotion of the faithful to God.

    But only in Islam does that take the form of horrifying violence, both towards non-believers—as here—and those considered lax or “apostate”.

    You do not find the major religious holidays of any other faith connected with violence—not Christmas, or Passover, or Lent, or Easter, or Rosh Hashana or Yom Kippur. These holidays are either occasions for joy or for quiet reflection.

    But Ramadan is always a time for Muslims to rededicate themselves to Allah through bloody violence.

    God, I hate Islam.

    Islamic ethnic cleansing. The evangelical churches are building new churches in Nigeria every week. Muslims are losing their followers and Boko Haram has thus declared ‘WAR ON CHRISTIANS GENERALLY’.

    And the US and the world look the other way.

    Can Nigeria really be expected to hold together as a unified state?

    Thank goodness this Nigerian church had security. So when and if, the media reports about another foiled terrorist attack and allows “muslim leaders” to say the words, ” nothing to do with Islam”, “no compulsion in religion”, it’s deception and possible collusion.
