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

Islamic State trapped Christians in coffins and set them aflame

Jan 8, 2016 9:50 am By Raymond Ibrahim

According to the recently published testimony of Karam Sa‘ad—a former sergeant in the Iraqi army who was imprisoned and tortured by the Islamic State in June 2014 but recently escaped—ISIS engages in atrocities that the West remains largely ignorant of.  Among these and in the words of the escapee:

They [ISIS] tormented them [Christians] in horrendous ways and many of them died [from the torture] during their captivity….  They used to put them inside what resembled coffins and then set them on fire from the inside.

The Western world was horrified when ISIS set a Jordanian pilot on fire, but as more escapees and former hostages share their experiences, it appears that such savagery is the tip of the iceberg.

    All of it justified by islamic orthodoxy.

    Few days ago, I wrote comenting on Vatican positions, that they drove me closer to atheism. That’s not completely true, because then I am reminded that there are Christians that stand firm in their faith, even in the face of horrendous deaths. There are bishops and priests who stayed by their flock, risking their lives. These are the real Christians, because they do have a personal relation with Jesus and don’t sacrifice it for nothing.. These are the forgotten. Western politicians sacrifice them to their vanity, Vatican ignores them for their political reasons. If Jesus is to be found somewhere, is there, with His suffering people, not here with their corrupt “followers”. A day will come, when History will judge all this.

    These poeple must be having inspiration from the devil himself. Their creativity at needless torture can not spring from the human mind. May be the west need to nuke the demons.

    God bless these brave Christian martyrs. Christians in other parts of the world have it so good. I am an American Christian who likes justice to be served. I dont pray for anything bad to happen to anyone, including the enemies of Christ. I prefer to think that when a Muslim dies, if this Muslim has done evil acts toward innocent people of any religion or no religion, that he/she will see the “god” he/she worshipped (Allah=Satan) and realize at that moment that what they thought would be their eternal new home in Paradise, is actually hellfire. After all, Allah is the best of deceivers.

    ” When He opened the fifth seal,I saw under the alter the souls of those who had been slain for the Word of God and for the testimony which they held . And they cried with a loud voice,saying,” How long,O LORD , HOLY AND TRUE ,until YOU JUDGE AND AVENGE OUR BLOOD on those who dwell on the earth? ” Revelation 6 verses 9 ; 10 ( NKJV )

    A lot of things are wrong with Islam. Here is a list of things in Islam that are irreconcilable with modernity:

    1 No Golden Rule 2 No free speech 3 No democracy 4 Jihad – holy war of world conquest 5 Honour killings 6 Taqiyya – sacred lying 7 Taqlid – group think 8 Misogyny – repression of women 9 Rape of kafirs as jihad prizes 10 Genocide 11 Ethnic cleansing 12 Anti-Semitism 13 Al-Walaa wal-Baraa – Islamic apartheid 14 Torture 15 Plundering 16 Cruel and unusual punishments 17 Backwardness – stagnation 18 Violence against women 19 Slavery 20 Discriminatory Sharia law 21 Hatred of the arts 22 Pedophilia disguised as child marriage 23 Fifty generations of cousin marriage and genetic defects 24 Cruelty to animals 25 Extortion tax to humiliate disbelievers 26 No historic basis 27 Anti-intellectual obscurantism 28 FGM 29 Arab racism 30 Theocratic totalitarianism 31 Vigilantism 32 Supremacism

    Please stop suggesting god will do something he will not as it is a man made word. Only one to do something is Man. Put man before god please. People laugh at people who like to believe in the tooth fairy what is the difference none. Stopping Islam is going to be very hard for us all but depending on the tooth fairy is sheer madness.

    We all do what we can to stop Islam. I always speak about Islam truthfully to people including in front of Muslims. I am not in a position to take up arms but I fully support anyone who does and I am very contentious of people who say Islam is a peaceful religion by speaking up against them.

      Comparing the Creator to the Tooth Fairy seems to work for people who would still like to believe that Darwin has the answers to their dilemma.

      Not really a surprise when you think about it. If you are willing to rely on 18th century science to base the foundation of your opinions on the origin of life, then the Tooth Fairy probably does still seem like a viable comparison.

      Darwin does provide a convenient cover for obfuscation and fabrication by militant atheists firmly entrenched in academia, but even they don’t believe in him or the Tooth Fairy anymore. They just don’t have a better solution at the moment.

        I wear a bullet proof vest and you can pray to what you want and we will see what happens. Anyway it does not matter as life is short and you feel happier to have something to have faith in. I just accept what you say and move on. But remember some religion’s would have removed our heads for even suggesting god was man made or not.

        Militant Atheists don’t exist but Militant Islam does. There is no better solution at the moment because there does not have to be one.

    Imam Obama said that to make the Christians a special cause would be ” shameful “, what is shameful is that deceiver is the President of the United States. It really is a shame that the first black President was not Ben Carson.

    Please view share and give a thumbs up to the following documentary, https://youtu.be/t_Qpy0mXg8Y. This would be good for people with any sympathy for Islam.
