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

Pakistani pol says entire nation is united to eradicate terrorism

Aug 10, 2015 7:56 am By Robert Spencer

shahbaz-sharifHey, this is great news. However, considering that 84% of Pakistanis want Sharia to be the law of the land, and that jihad groups such as the Taliban (aided and abetted by the ISI, Pakistan’s spy service) are working to implement Sharia, and that Pakistan has a long record of aiding jihadis, it is just possible that Shehbaz Sharif is exaggerating, or overconfident, or speaking for Western ears, or means by “terrorism” something quite different from what most Westerners would assume he means.

“Entire nation is united to eradicate terrorism: Shehbaz,” Pakistan Today, August 9, 2015:

The entire nation is united to eradicate the scourge of terrorism and extremism from the country, said Punjab Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif while talking to Railways Minister Khawaja Saad Rafique in Lahore on Sunday.

The chief minister said that the armed forces are writing history of gallantry with their blood in the anti-terror combat operation Zarb-e-Azb….

    Ha, ha, ha, .. the terrorists say they want to eliminate terrorism. I think their definition of terrorism is different than the normal meaning. If they are against terrorism then they have to eradicate Islam as terrorism is an integral part of Islam which Muslims have used for last 1400 years.

      Yep, they are showing their gallantry in sponsoring terror attacks on India in Jammu and Kashmir!!

      Brilliant comment Jaladhi. Their prophet Mo’ was a terrorist… he said so himself – “I have been made victorious with terror” (Sahih Bukhari 4:52:220).
      And their Quran enjoins Muslims to terrorize non-Muslims – “Strike terror in the hearts of Allah’s enemies and your enemies – Quran 8:60.”

      r. el stupido wants us to believe that Turkey is a very moderate muslim country and wants to rid itself of terrorist… Why not just…. rid…. the country period.

    wouldn’t it be great if his wish were granted and the entire muslim population of Pakistan disappeared!

    I think that was a tongue in cheek remark from the Chief Minister. No doubt the Railways Minister roared with laughter. More Tea?

    • sidney penny says

      Aug 10, 2015 at 10:03 pm

      more Chai?

      I suppose they both would have spoken Queens English to each other so more tea would be correct.

      Who knows with some of them it could be more whiskey?

    when most pakistanis believe Mossad did 9/11…
    there is no change there, they will still burn Israeli and US flags, and never IS flags.

      @marc. Most Pakistanis also believe that the killings of 150 plus school children in peshawar was perpetrated by india when Pakistani Taliban are openly claiming reponsibility for this. These people are living in Islamic lala land and they have completely lost all sense of their reality , logic, human values and rationale.

      Pakistanis are going through an identity crisis as Islamic invasions have them confused whether they belong to indian civilisation or Arabic. Islam has split a nation and even then these people are not content in their Islamic paradise that has slaughters and killings that is the order of the day.

      ISLAM TEARS FAMILIES APART AND IN ISLAM BLOOD IS ACTUALLY NOT THICKER THAN WATER.

    Nice propaganda. Double bonus gold stars, comrade!

    Pakistan is double-minded. That’s why there’s a civil war going on between its Islamist fanatics and its more modern people who want to liberalize.

    Nevertheless, a majority of Pakistanis have ‘extremist’ views…they merely don’t want terrorism within Pakistan…but it’s OK to MURDER AMERICANS according to 41% of Pakistanis. And persecuting Hindus and Christians is still OK. Pakistanis are Sharia extremists with practically no tolerance for non-Muslims. They have no tolerance for other interpretations of Islam either.

    -41% of Pakistanis approve of attacks on Americans (until recently)
    -76% of Pakistanis support death the penalty for leaving Islam
    -83% of Pakistanis support stoning adulterers
    -76% of Pakistanis want strict Sharia imposed in every Islamic country
    -82% of Pakistanis favor floggings and amputation

    As long as Pakistanis remain double-minded about Islam, their Islamist civil war will continue. The suicide murders will continue in Pakistan into the foreseeable future.

    Shehbaz Sharif’s bullshit on full display! Let’s go over the topic of “Bullshit” that was originally posted by dumbledoresarmy.

    (( Link: http://www.jihadwatch.org/2015/08/uk-racing-against-time-to-head-off-islamic-state-plot-against-queen/comment-page-1#comment-1278711 ))

    This is only a portion of dumbledoresarmy’s full post-

    “Most ordinary people in western cultures hold truth-telling to be sacrosanct.” And so they are deceived, when they encounter Muslims who grow up soaked from birth in a culture that is based on what an astute author called Harry G Frankfurt called, succinctly, BULLSH”T, first in an essay, and then in a book called “On Bullshit” (2006).

    From the wiki entry on that book:

    “On Bullshit (2005), by Harry G. Frankfurt, is a philosophical essay that presents a theory of bullshit that defines the concept and analyses the applications of bullshit in the contexts of communication.

    “As such, bullshit can be neither true nor false; hence, the bullshitter is someone whose principal aim — when uttering or publishing bullshit — is to impress the listener and the reader with words that communicate an impression that something is being or has been done, words that are neither true nor false, and so obscure the facts of the matter being discussed.

    “In contrast, the liar must know the truth of the matter under discussion, in order to better conceal it from the listener or the reader being deceived with a lie; while the bullshitter’s sole concern is personal advancement and advantage to their own agenda.”

    Yes, Islam and Muslims do use ‘lies’ in the simple sense described there; but an awful lot of what is done and said among Muslims, starting with the Islamic texts themselves! – seems to me to fit the bill of what Frankfurt calls “bull-sh*t”.

    Muslims are both ‘liars’ in that simple sense – par excellence – and *also*, I think to a far greater degree, bull-sh*t artists. They will say *anything*, at any time, if they think that at that moment, to *those* hearers, what they are saying will advance the cause of Islam/ polish the image of Islam/ protect Islam/ the Ummah/ their precious muslim selves. Whether they’re flattering and pouring out a cloud of flowery nothings, or boasting, or uttering bloodcurdling threats or the grossest of obscenities, is all a matter of what they think will work to persuade – whether by seduction/ bamboozling, or by outright shock and terror – the person or persons they are addressing. Martha Gellhorn saw it among the “Palestinian” Arabs whom she interviewed in 1960, she grew so weary of the vast gulf between checkable/ observable facts and whatever it was that these people were telling her, that she invented the word “madhattery” to describe it.

    And they rot their *own* brains, eventually; Oriana Fallaci found that to be the case with Yasser Arafat, she interviewed him and her description of him is a description of a decaying or chaotic soul, so absolutely unmoored from or disregarding of the Good, or even just That Which Is, as to be, from a Dantean point of view, already in Hell.

    But the thing is – ordinary people in the Western world, and our common or garden politicians *as well*, despite their own tendency toward a bit of BS on their own account – just *are not* experienced in recognising, detecting or dealing with this level and intensity of BS and lies. We have our sociopaths, our psychopaths, our “Slick Willies”, but they are just not in the same league and there are not so many of them. And that is why the Muslims have made so much headway…

    Sort of like when the children were massacred, and the army was going to hunt down the perps.

    I cannot recall seeing anything since.

    has anyone?

  11. Voytek Gagalka says

    The only problem with that their statement is how they understand meaning of “terrorism” or “extremism.” Was attack 911 terrorism? Not, according to those who celebrated it. Is demanding beheading of all apostates and critics of Muhammad “extreme”? Not, if you buy into their perverse tribal universe of total submission to the “will of allah” (ie. those men who rule in “his name”). It is all about semantics. Or lack of proper reasoning. Or perversion of concepts.

    Why JW readers react negatively. May be instead openly saying about their religion, they safely express they want to eradicate terrorist!!

  13. rooare says

    Aug 11, 2015 at 1:51 pm

    And his definition of terrorism is anything, anyone, or any group who does not agree with his brand of Islam.

    JUST WONDERING what it would be like to have a reverse radical leader of the US?? Someone who would take no guff from the islam crowd and squash any and all of those who try to disrupt our way of life and want to destroy our constitution and democratic way of government

    Someone who would stop all the waste in our government.. Someone who would stand up to foreign nations who want to trample on us. Someone who would stand up for our religious rights instead of taking God from every facet of government. Someone who believes in the power of the one and only God Almighty. Someone who would bring back the prestige, say, to what it was at the end of WWII. Someone who would work to restore the many jobs lost to foreign countries. Someone who would stop the oil flow from the mid east. Someone who would stop the flowing of billions and and billions and trillions of our dollars to foreign countries. Someone who believes in a strong military. Someone who would flush out the softies in our government.
    JUST WONDERING
