Video of Paris jihad mastermind: “It is nice to see the blood of infidels”

Nov 18, 2015 9:47 am By Robert Spencer

“It is nice to see the blood of infidels.” For Abaaoud, this is a religious war, and that is all it is. It is only Western authorities who are sure that it is anything but that.

“Paris Massacre Mastermind: ‘It Is Nice To See The Blood Of Infidels,’” Breitbart Jerusalem, November 18, 2015:

TEL AVIV, Israel – An eerie video has surfaced in which the suspected mastermind behind the Paris massacre, Abdelhamid Abaaoud – aka “Abu Omar Al-Belgiki” – praises the “sweetness of martyrdom” and expresses joy at seeing the “blood of infidels.”

Abaaoud is at the center of a massive manhunt and is believed to have fled to ISIS-held territory in Syria although reports overnight suggest he could have been the target of a police operation in the Saint-Denis area of Paris designed to hunt down the perpetrators of last Friday’s terror attack.

According to European officials, Abaaoud is the link between the ISIS leadership in Syria and terrorists operating in Europe. He reportedly has close ties with Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the ISIS’s self-proclaimed Caliph.

The 27-year-old terrorist grew up in Molenbeek, a suburb of Brussels known as a hotbed of radical Jihadist activity. According to the Associated Press, Abaaoud attended one of Belgium’s most prestigious high schools.

In a clip from 2014, Abaaoud is shown delivering a monologue from a trench in Syria. He asks, “What can be sweeter than martyrdom in the path of Allah?” According to a translation from MEMRI TV, Abaaoud also says, “It is nice to see … the blood of infidels” before calling upon his “brothers” to “hasten to jihad before it’s too late.”

View the MEMRI TV clip here.

In another video, Abaaoud drives a pickup truck dragging a pile of bloody corpses in Syria. Abaaoud laughs and tells the camera, “Before we towed jet skis, motorcycles, quad bikes, big trailers filled with gifts for vacation in Morocco. Now, thank God, following God’s path, we’re towing apostates, infidels who are fighting us.”

Abaaoud is also suspected of being the ringleader behind the Amsterdam-Brussels train attack in August.

In an interview with ISIS’s official English-language magazine, Dabiq, Abaaoud boasts that he is able to travel between Europe and Syria at will despite being chased by so many intelligence agencies. “My name and picture were all over the news, yet I was able to stay in their homeland, plan operations against them, and leave safely when doing so became necessary,” said Abaaoud. “I was even stopped by an officer who contemplated me so as to compare me to the picture, but he let me go, as he did not see the resemblance!”…

    ………………………………..

    Muslims have a different conception of “nice” than do civilized people…

    This may–as of last night–no longer be true for Abaaoud. But it is still true for thousands of active Jihadists in the West.

      1/. This is the second time that a massacre could have been avoided.
      Do you remember that one of the 9/11 terror jihadists was stopped
      by a State Trooper, then allowed to proceed?

      2/. “hasten to jihad before it’s too late.”
      He can’t mean that ISIS will run out of targets,
      so he knows that the koran is going to hit the fan soon.

      Hating Muslims is a logical as hating a blind man for being blind.

      FACT-BASED DEPROGRAMMING will liberate Muslims from there Bronze Age Death Cult.

        Do tell exactly this deprogramming programme of yours would work ?????
        Go into Mosques and put headphones on Muslims and make them listen to ” Islam is shyte ” all day long ???’
        Round Muslims up a dawn and take them to deprogramming camps and make them sit in long rows repeating ” Mohammed was insane ”
        Exactly what makes you think THAT MUSLIMS WANT TO BE DEPROGRAMMED??????

        Nov 18, 2015 at 11:56 am

        You’ve said this befire, mortimer, and as I pointed out to you before, *blindness is involuntary*. muslims, on the other hand, *choose* to follow islam. Get it ?!

        As for your ‘deprogramming’ pie in the sky crap, tell us *exactly* how it would be done, exactly *how* it would work, how you would get governments to implement it, and how you would get muslims to submit it, and lastly, how you would know it had *worked*.

        Otherwise you’re just as full of crap as voegelinian and his total deportation of muslims meme.

          People choose evil. It is NOT based on any rational decision-making. Trying to purposefully fight irrational religious decision-making with rational discussion never works. Just try and convince a fundamentalist Christian based on facts and evidence that their religion is nonsense. You will never win them over — they must come to a more mature world view all on their own, if ever. But at least they have only chosen silliness, while moslems have chosen evil. You cannot make them un-choose evil no matter what the weight of your argument and how inescapable the facts and logic — because it is based on irrationality. Religion appeals directly to the irrational part of human nature, completely bypassing the rational aspect.

        Mortimer you are Ignoramous………Mirren10 is 100 percent correct. no programming can be done for Muslims, pray tell how that is done ?…….and as for that sarcastic word bully voegelinian, what else can you expect, from a person who has been several times banned already, Robert Spencer should ban that fool again……

      • gravenimage says

        Nov 18, 2015 at 6:52 pm

        Mortimer–with respect–you’ve said both these things before.

        But blind people do *not* choose to be blind–whereas Muslims *do* choose to embrace their creed. Ideology is a matter of choice–it is not inborn, nor is it out of the control of the devotee.

        As for your talking about deprogramming Muslims, you have never indicated why they would listen to the despised “filthy Infidels” in the first place.

      One youtuber recently posted, “Forget about just burying them in pigskins…if they’re captured alive, then feed them alive to hungry pigs!”

      Ooooh…that might be too cruel even for them. Almost 2 years ago, in the Calabrian region of southern Italy, some rival gangsters fed a Mafia don alive to some pigs after beating him with metal bars, in a revenge killing. Apparently, the swine even consumed the don’s bones afterwards….nothing left.

    Religious warfare? Yes, boys and girls. It is.

    According to the Dictionary of Islam: Jihad is “a religious war with (against) those who are unbelievers (kufaar) in the mission of Muhammad. It is an incumbent religious duty, established in the Quran and in the Traditions as a divine institution, enjoined specially for the purpose advancing Islam and repelling evils from Muslims.”

    Ibn Khaldun (d. 1406), jurist, renowned philosopher, historian, and sociologist, summarized these consensus opinions from five centuries of prior Muslim jurisprudence with regard to the uniquely Islamic institution of jihad:
    “In the Muslim community, the holy war is a religious duty, because of the universalism of the [Muslim] mission and [the obligation to] convert everybody to Islam either by persuasion or by force…”

    “Jihad is holy fighting in Allah’s Cause with full force of numbers and weaponry. It is given the utmost importance in Islam and is one of its pillars. By Jihad Islam is established, Allah’s Word is made superior (which means only Allah has the right to be worshiped), and Islam is propagated. By abandoning Jihad Islam is destroyed and Muslims fall into an inferior position; their honor is lost, their lands are stolen, their rule and authority vanish. Jihad is an obligatory duty in Islam on every Muslim. He who tries to escape from this duty, or does not fulfill this duty, dies as a hypocrite.” – Footnote commentary on jihad from p580 of Sahih Al-Bukhar, publ. by Maktba Dar-us-Salam

    Abdelhamid Abaaoud crooned about the ‘blood of kafirs’ (disbelievers), murdered in jihad.

    Abdelhamid Abaaoud was able to plan his operation without being detected because LAW ENFORCEMENT HAS NO IDEA ABOUT THE JIHAD DOCTRINE…or any other doctrine of political Islam and is unable to spot a jihadist as a result.

    The elites are leaving us with our pants down because of this lack of doctrinal training.

      Are you calling those two professors at the War College liars? They researched Jihad and found it to be an internal spiritual struggle.

      To Don McKellar; Thankyou for giving me a hearty laugh today. (My assumption, because of your remarks about Christians, is that you are atheist. Please forgive me if I have misjudged.)
      To speak of evil by an atheist is rather humorous. We can only know evil if there is such a thing as right and wrong. Once again thanks, its a real kneeslapper.

      • gravenimage says

        Nov 18, 2015 at 6:57 pm

        Gerry, many Atheists–including many of your fellow Anti-Jihadists here–have a keen sense of good and evil, just as much as people of faith.

    It is nice to see the blood of infidels.

    It’s also nice to see a man enjoy his work. This guy has a winsome smile. Too bad he’s wanted as a mass murderer, otherwise he’d make a great guest on the No Spin Zone.

    That brutal and murderous jihadist ,Abaaoud, who said “It is nice to see the blood of infidels.” By saying this he is only exposing vicious and malice-filled Islamic mindset. He as other Muslims who engage in the deadly and malicious violence of the militant jihad are not only the fruits of Islam but such a ruthless jihadist way of thinking also shows how Islam can warped ,sicked, and make wicked the cognition of those who follow this death cult. Too the extreme the they view “bloodshed of people and ” as “nice ” or “good” and they would also see a peaceful, bloodless and nonviolent night in Paris France as something “evil.” To such warped , wicked and sick characters as they are ,the Bible teaches “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil…” Isaiah 5:20. [N.K.J.V.]

    Anyone who says that Islam has nothing to do with terrorism, that Islam is a religion of peace, that Islam is not the reason behind these attacks should be regarded as a traitor.

    Abdelhamid Abaaoud – aka “Abu Omar Al-Belgiki” – praises the “sweetness of martyrdom”

    It’s so sweet that he can’t wait to be martyred… oh, wait, he avoids martyrdom as the devil avoids crosses.

      French chanson singer Georges Brassens came out with a sarcastic song in 1972 about those armchair heroes who call others to martyrdom:

      Mourir pour des idées (Dying for ideas.)

    “It’s nice to see the blood of infidels” says the Death Worshipper, the slave of Thanatos.

    And meanwhile the *bum* of the mohammedthug that was recently arrested in St Denis in the wee small hours is being sent from one end of the internets to the other, and many coarse and vulgar Infidels are making merry over it.

    Dear Abaaouad, please rest in pieces.
    Quickly turn into rat feces.
    You wish to pollute the kufr West?
    Flow into the sewer, with the rest.
    Mingle with some other s–t.
    I do not mourn you, not one bit.

    I understand that they identified one of those killed in the Paris shootout was Abaouad.
