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

Islamic State links its origins to the killing of Osama and US withdrawal from Iraq

Aug 18, 2015 11:01 am By Robert Spencer

obamaObama’s most significant legacy is the Islamic State. Its rise is the most important accomplishment of his Administration.

“Islamic State Links Its Origins To Killing Of Bin Laden,” Investor’s Business Daily, August 17, 2015 (thanks to Anne Crockett):

Killing Osama bin Laden may have won President Obama re-election in 2012, but the price was the rise of the Islamic State. At least according to IS itself.

The secret 32-page IS manifesto and strategy plan, written in Urdu and just uncovered from remote Pakistan by the American Media Institute, is titled “The Caliphate According to the Prophet.”

Beyond its headline-grabbing reference to Obama as “Mule of the Jews,” the IS dossier blames the president for the organization’s rise to power in a whole new way.

Obviously, Obama’s cut and run of U.S. troops from Iraq left the welcome mat out. But the manifesto boasts that IS ruler Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, in avenging the killing of Osama bin Laden, engineered car bomb and IED attacks in cities across Iraq.

“The losses inflicted upon Americans, apostates and heretics were unprecedented,” the IS document stated. “This state of affairs forced Mule of the Jews, U.S. President Obama, to announce an exit plan.”

There is a chilling irony here. When Obama, interviewed by the New Yorker a year and a half ago, dismissed IS as just “a jayvee team,” in the same breath he downplayed their importance because IS lacked “the capacity and reach of a bin Laden.”

The IS strategy document reveals that the new caliphate is already taking steps to unite Pakistani and Afghan Taliban factions, then launch a war on India. And then finally confront America….

    NPR’s mantra is it is all Bush’s fault.

      I won’t go so far as to say that it is all Bush,s fault…..but maybe we should have just left Sadam alone and……problem solved?????

        I think Saddam was a messed up war lord and he did hurt a lot of people (but he was dealing with savages…), initially Iraqis were thrilled when USA rolled up. US should have either never entered or backed the Iraqis after. Stuck a flag in the sand, give us citizens massive bonus/incentives for moving there….and essentially colonize plus control it. Then there would be more then one democracy in the middle east.

        Whats the point of just rolling up killing the leadership and then running away? Should have never ran, gas prices for everyone in north America shoulda dropped to half………Why the F do we let these barbarians have the income…..so they can plot our murder.

        Must agree with Trump when he says he never woulda screwed that up twice over……destabilize the region; then let terrorists take control of the income.

        This is really ABC’s common sense, that our forefathers had.

          I’m afraid I doubt enough civilized Infidels could have moved to Iraq to turn the place into Florida or Texas. More likely, colonists would just have wound up targets for Jihad terror.

          Your probably right…….however, if it was herds of idiotic lefties that moved there…..lol, or empty out some of the jails and give tax payers a break…- ‘here , have a second chance…..In Iraq”…lol. Then add to the heap all the morons that participated in the “occupy’ movement…”occupy Iraq you lefty loons”.

          Seriously though, Trump has it right that as long as ISIS have oil income, and free US equipment….the war will be ongoing. Obama created power vaccums which lead to insanity. More people then ever hate America, or have lost respect for America.

          Given all the facts, I don’t see how things will ever change. Was great how commies were ostracized in America when it mattered.

          Perhaps it makes sense to just do exactly what the Jihadis want. Get out of their lands. Then to be fair, ban islam; and give all western muslims the option to leave or pledge allegiance. Some countries are already thinking this way. Loved the recent article in BNI about eastern Europe. What a concept, leaders who listen to their people.

          We should now be focused on getting non-muslims avenues out of Muslim lands. Then we need to black the muslims out…….they will rapidly fall behind in technology, compared to the civilized world. Such hypocrites, hate speech in the queeran calling us apes and pigs, yet our technology you like, and use.

    Off topic – The planned London Mohammed cartoon exhibition, which surprisingy has never received a mention here, has been cancelled due to safety fears:

      Hello ECAW — The cancellation is not surprising.

      Allah’s private club members apparently forced security into an elaborate merry jig on VJ Day — to prevent E. R.’s head landing in Piccadilly Circus while the rest of her remained elsewhere.

      Do you have a few minutes to write YOUR perspective on what Scotland Yard went through in men / hours / tactics ?

      • ECAW says

        Aug 18, 2015 at 1:11 pm

        Hi Jihad3tracker

        I’m sorry I can’t answer your question directly. I am an expat and only get my information about the situation in Britain second hand. One thing comes to mind though – did you know that France put about 10,000 troops on the streets after Hebdo to protect synagogues etc. and have now decided to leave them there indefinitely? I think we can also expect to have to deploy troops permanently to defend ourselves from one set of our own “citizens” (I imagine it will be like Northern Ireland but much worse). France has 10% Muslims. Britain has 5% but 10% of under 5’s are Muslim so it’s only a question of time. France is probably 10 years ahead of Britain.

        Regarding the queen and her head, I was thinking of that when I wrote the last section of this recently, if you’re interested:

          Sorry, France has decided to leave about 7,000 of the troops on the streets indefinitely.

    George The Idiot and Obama the Muslim have served as a tag team — laying a beating on American wallets, freedoms, and future. They’ve done even worse to countries around the world which had at least stability through dictatorships — which, frankly, is the only form of government that moslems understand and can comprehend that isn’t a theocracy. And that’s because a theocracy is simply a dictatorship by proxy.

    One spent money and blood like a drunken sailor to enrich his buddies, his tag team partner then came in and spent money and blood like a drunken sailor to empower and embolden Islam.

    Who will take their place? Will it be made a tag team of three? Trump? Hilary?

  4. Cornelius says

    Aug 18, 2015 at 12:44 pm

    This is what bothers me about my fellow conservatives….the propensity for hyperbole that is little different than our liberal adversaries.

    Obama’s withdrawal from Iraq certainly opened the door to ISIS in that country, but ISIS’s genesis began in neighboring Syria…and was based on the ancient Shia-Sunni divide. Saying that Obama created ISIS is as inaccurate as saying that Bush did.

    • gravenimage says

      Aug 19, 2015 at 10:20 pm

      I have to agree, Cornelius. Various foolish Western policies have *enabled* Jihad, but they have not created it.

      And good to see you posting again.

    Obama’s greatest mental limitation is his inability to see the determination within Islamic supremacism to CONQUER THE WORLD.

    The group MEGALOMANIA of Muslims is totally hidden to Obama. That is why he is a disastrous president.

    He lacks the ordinary perception that most Americans possess in the matter of TYRANNY.

    Obama = SEE NO EVIL ISLAM!

    • Kerri says

      Aug 22, 2015 at 12:19 pm

      Obama sees it. He knows what he’s doing. He’s evil, and hates America.

  6. Cecilia Ellis says

    Aug 18, 2015 at 1:05 pm

    The 32-page dossier, cited in the posted article, is an indictment of Obama’s foreign policy. The document, entitled “A Brief History of the Islamic State Caliphate (ISC), The Caliphate According to the Prophet,” outlines an ISIS plan that is chilling and on a fast-track to be accomplished.

    Here are some of its main features:

    1. Documents the spread of ISIS into Taliban territories.
    2. Indicates plans underway to attack India.
    3. Describes an end-of-the-world battle in 6 phases.

    The following extract from an article entitled, “ISIS ‘Mein Kampf’ Blames Israel for Global Terrorism” (Arutz Sheva, by Sara Carter) reveals the strategy of ISIS to bring about a global caliphate, as described in the 32-page document:

    Phase 1 – “Awakening” 2000-2003: Islamic State calls for “a major operation against the U.S. .. to provoke a crusade against Islam.”
    Phase 2 – “Shock and Awe” 2004 – 2006: Islamic State will lure U.S. into multiple theatres of war, including cyber-attacks and establish charities across the Muslim and Arab world to support terrorism.
    Phase 3 – “Self-reliance” 2007-2010: Islamic State will create “interference” with Iraq’s neighboring states with particular focus on Syria.
    Phase 4 – “Reaping/extortion/receiving” 2010-2013: Islamic State will attack “U.S and Western interests” to destroy their economy and replace the dollar with silver and gold and expose Muslim governments’ relations with Israel and the U.S.
    Phase 5 – “Declaring the Caliphate 2013-2016: Not much detail offered here. The document just says, “The Caliphate According to The Prophet.”
    Phase 6 – “Open Warfare 2017-2020: Islamic State predicts faith will clash with non-believers and “Allah will grant victory to the believers after which peace will reign on earth.”

    http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/199531#!

    A quick review of the six phases reveals a violent and deadly future for Western cultures should they ignore the treasure trove of intelligence information provided in this document. There is no speculation involved; ISIS will continue to kill and subject millions until it achieves its goal of a final battle. There is no excuse for the failure of Obama and other Western leaders to destroy this evil. They have blood on their hands, which they obscure with disingenuous rhetoric, and there will be more.

    This document is as important as is the “Explanatory Memorandum on the General Strategic Goal for the Group in North America” (1991), which presented the Muslim Brotherhood’s strategy for infiltrating all U.S. institutions.

    http://www.clarionproject.org/Muslim_Brotherhood_Explanatory_Memorandum

    To use a phrase voiced prior to 9/11, the alarm “is blinking red.” Both documents demand action by political leaders. To date, that has not happened. It’s time to replace those leaders with those who actually care about the security of their nations. I am not an Islamophobe; I am an intelligence analyst who understands what these two documents portray. The truth is that we have the both the ability and the responsibility to wipe this cancer from the face of the earth. The information contained in these two documents provides a starting point for a counter-strategy that will target every area of Muslim influence in government, media, and academia. The dismissal of political correctness is crucial in defeating an enemy that is resolute in killing and in imposing its rule globally; that dismissal is the primary origin from which all other actions may be taken. In order for that to happen, the media must first report the facts. As I have yet to see any cable news segment report this latest ISIS document, the global response will remain one of apathy, a reaction about which Raymond Ibrahim has warned. The alarm is indeed blinking red.

      Every Senator and Congressman should have a copy of the plan the Memorandum. Good thing someone has a copy. I have talked to many people and I see the apathy. I have fear…but some knowledge. Excellent article. There is potential in the candidates for office to speak about this and expose it. Even Trump could get it rolling ….backed up by others. He gets the media.

    Killing Osama bin Laden may have won President Obama re-election in 2012, but the price was the rise of the Islamic State. At least according to IS itself.

    Would anyone be surprised of Obama said “the killing of bin Laden was an operation that started with Bush ad which I couldn’t stop”? I mean, someone would have to put him on the spot, and I don’t see the MSM doing so, but still – would anyone be surprised of Obama tried to backpedal from that as he did from the withdraw from Iraq?

    • Joseph says

      Aug 19, 2015 at 3:20 pm

      Angemon, remember that ANYTHING is permissible as long as it furthers the cause of Islam.If Bin Laden had to be sacrificed to further tat cause then so be it. To the Muslims he was probably worth more dead than alive and you know which one they chose.
      I do believe this was a factor in his death.

    This 32 page “Manifesto” entitled “Obama Mule of the Jews” couldn’t be further from the truth. It should have been entitled ” Obama, Enemy of the Jews”.

      why the distinction? infidels are infidels. christians are infidels. jews are infidels. and whether there are degrees and varieties of these and what is going on between them is academic. see you in jahanam!

    Yes exactly ! Obama leaves behind a wonderful legacy ;includes the systematic violent rape of young Yazidi , and Christians girls , some as young as 9 years old . The beheading and putting the heads of toddlers on sticks. The violent persecution of homosexuals , (who Obama pretends to support) alliances and concessions for terrorist states like Iran and Cuba . Yes indeed ! the inter-varsity team is no doubt greatly Appreciative for all the financial and military benefits . However I don’t believe its going to prevent them from beheading the American Caliph and I don’t even want to think what his new friends will do to his family. He might have to learn the hard way THAT TO GIVE ISLAMISTS EVEN A MICRO 16th of an inch , is to invite them to be Your Slave Master !

    I think George Bush got played like a fiddle by Obama, when a friendship was forged for the benefit of an approval of by George Bush for Obam, to still the critics and fears of the man who ascended into office with an agenda of a accommodating the Caliphate in their stealth plans to decieve and conquer in my humble opinion. Many claim Bush was not too smart with nasty comments, I say he was totally uniformed about the global islamic movement, the men in suits to whom he consulted about the enemy, and did not have a clue about the deception about the goals of Islam in my opinion, from the readings of far smarter people, I have come to this opinion. That Bush should be decieved, look at the whole western civilized group of countries, and hundreds of years of Islamic terror without shame, in my opinion. Robert Menendez when talking about the Iranian treaty and his decision to not support the insane agreement, said three words that covers most dealings with our enemy, and numerous terror groups and their supporters :
    “deciet, deception and delay”…or as we know tacqyya.
