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

Spain, Morocco arrest 14 Muslims suspected of recruiting for the Islamic State

Aug 25, 2015 8:58 am By Robert Spencer

spanish-police-Islamic State arrestOnce again, the eternally recurring question: every Western authority tells us that the Islamic State represents a perversion of Islam, a twisting of the true teachings of the Religion of Peace. So why do so many Muslims worldwide continue to misunderstand their peaceful religion?

“Spain, Morocco arrest 14 suspected of recruiting for Islamic State group,” France 24, August 25, 2015:

Spain and Morocco arrested 14 people on Tuesday suspected of recruiting fighters for the Islamic State (IS) group in Syria and Iraq, Spain’s Interior Ministry said.

The arrests, part of a joint operation between Morocco and Spain, were made in the outskirts of Madrid and in various places in Morocco, including Casablanca and Fez.

    Spain had the right idea 500 years ago !
    This week for some odd reason I have been hearing, on BBC radio 4, muslim after muslim claiming that the terrorists of ISIL and all the “lone wolves” are not muslim at all. They claim that nowhere in the Koran are muslims told to kill or rape or rob. I wonder which version these people are reading then because my sojourns into the koran revealed many such verses and I hear cleric after cleric state that the koran is “timeless” in that it applies to all times and cannot be altered. I know that the “bad” verses are in the Medinian section and that those verses abrogate anything written earlier and in the Meccan section. I have to assume that these Radio 4 interviewees either do not know their own religion and its texts or are practicing taqiyya. Hard to decide which (haha)

      So you also noticed that the BBC defends islamic terrorists as lone wolves.
      It becomes all the more transparently obvious when Al Beeb talks of
      the “so called islamic state”.
      In fact the Islamic State is not so called, it is the real thing and merely
      a fast developing equivalent of its inspiration & main sponsor,
      Saudi Arabia.
      From today’s pc & anti Israel Independent –
      “Saudi Arabia executes ‘a person every two days’ as rate of beheadings
      soars under King Salman”
      This is somewhat less productive in severed heads than IS, but when IS
      is fully established I feel sure its executions (& worse) will settle down
      to Saudi levels.
      The only thing that baffles me is why Western governments not only
      suck up to Saudi savages, but sell them state of the art weapons of mass
      destruction, in the full knowledge that IS & Saudi are two sides of
      a very porous & dirty coin.

      I believe for the BBC and other Western media to be playing this game of denial of jihadist Islamist activities, hidden as it were “in plain sight”, some Islamists must be holding guns to the heads or knives to the necks of the managements. These news media have been heavily infiltrated by jihadists. One must admire the strategic brilliance of these jihadists – infiltration of ALL major national, international and media organizations – to cover up their tracks and protect their satanic interests! When will the world wake up?!

      People people people…Please please please quit calling Islam a religion….it is a. CULT. When we call it a religion we are grouping it with Christianity

    Okay.

    How about let’s stop arguing on whether Islam is or isn’t a “Religion of Peace”?

    As long as we infidels can shoot all the ones who are “violent” by our standards.

    Literally -and figuratively I guess – I’m pretty sure we can all live with that.

    Only 14? Bah, it’s a start, I guess…

    Considering that Morocco is 99.9% Muslim, even though “there is no compulsion in religion”, this aresting of recruiters points to schism somewhere in the authority structure of that country.

    Like Captain Louis Renault, people are shocked, shocked, in Casablanca to think there are jihadists among the “moderates”. After all, so many already left for The Netherlands…..

    Lets hope that schism leads Moroccan citizens to honest repudiation of Daesh and of the miltant Islamic scriptures that support it. Yes, I know, it sounds delusional but all past religions and empires changed or declined given enough time – the world is dynamic.

    Morocco, the Lebanon and Malaysia are the countries to watch. If any of these succumb to Islamic Civil War, with an active fanatical Sunni faction, then it’s time to shut up shop and quarantine the entire Islamic world. All bets will then be off as to the future unravelling of events.
