What? An imam? Inconceivable! How could a man who has dedicated his life to understanding Islam correctly and teaching it to others properly get the crazy, Islamophobic idea that jihad had something to do with killing Infidels? How could he have misunderstood Islam so spectacularly, and in such an utterly unprecedented way? John Kerry and the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops should team up forthwith and send an Expert on Islam (say, some learned non-Muslim State Department wonk, or an Eastern Catholic bishop who speaks Arabic and can thus communicate with this poor, benighted cleric, who almost certainly knows Arabic in addition to his native language) over to Russia to teach this imam the true, peaceful nature of Islam. This misunderstanding can be easily cleared up as soon as the two of them sit down together and open up the Qur’an, and breathe in its soothing words of peace.
“Imam arrested in Russia’s south-west planned to set up radical religious cell — source,” Tass, December 31, 2015 (thanks to Thomas):
An imam arrested in the city of Belgorod in Russia’s south-west allegedly had plans to create a radical religious cell, source familiar with the reasons for his detention told TASS.
According to the unnamed source, during the search in the house of worship security officers seized extremist literature, in addition to weapons and explosives.
“Leader of the Peace and Creation religious organization Faizullah Ismailov, an adherent of Salafism (radical branch of Islam), planned to create a Salafi cell in Belgorod,” the source said. “During the searches in the house of worship, plenty of extremist literature was seized, in addition to weapons, including of the Hizb ut-Tahrir al-Islam international terrorist group outlawed in Russia.”
According to the prosecutor’s office, “during Islamilov’s detention in his office in the house of worship on December 12 FSB officers discovered an automatic pistol, a handgun, three ball cartridges, a fragmentation hand grenade, a fusee for hand grenades and 737 grams of TNT.”…
The source noted that some of the parishioners of the Belgorod mosque whose spiritual leader Ismailov is take part in the armed conflict in Syria on the side of the Islamic State (IS terrorist group outlawed in Russia).

Shocked?
No one should be!

Those are all symbols of religious devotion for Muslims, how dare you to imply otherwise. 🙂
Shove the hand grenade (wrapped in bacon) up his arse and remote-detonate from a save distance.
Ernie says
Dear Vlad , you bring a smile to my face man ! My dirty mind ( and as we all know : a dirty mind is a joy forever ) told me that the whole arsenal could be shoved up his…….no lubrication needed , and use gloves please ! I’m sure the Russians will have lots of fun with this guy , and I congratulate them with this catch . Well done !
Christianblood says
The first question that comes to mind is:
Is the US and their barbaric Saudi/Turkish/Qatari allies about to open another jihad front in this part of Russia?
Ernie says
I hope ( maybe against better judgement ) the U.S. administration , Saudi Arabia , Qatar and Turkey are not that stupid ; it would result in full blown World War III ( if we’re not in that situation already ) . The Russians have the right and duty to defend their people and country ( and their allies as the Baath administration of Syria ) and would certainly respond . The whole of NATO would be dragged into this confict … Yes Christianblood , I’m scared this will happen . Until now we only see rapid escalation . We , the West MUST work together with Russia , whatever our differences are , to stop ALL of this madness . There is no other way to stop the horror . Have a nice evening Christianblood !

The idea that America is waging violent Jihad against Russia is absurd.
“Christianblood” may not have noticed it, but Russia–especially the “Stans”–are crawling with violent Muslims. The idea that it is the US that is behind violent Jihad against Russia is only possible for someone like this poster who hates the free West *far* more than he does bloody Islam.
Ernie says
Thanks Christianblood and a very HAPPY , PEACEFUL and HEALTHY New Year to you , and all other anti-jihadi’s here on J.W. !

The so-called “free West” have deep symbiotic relationship with “bloody Islam” and you can’t deny the fact that USA is backing and arming many, many different bloody islamic jihadists in the M.E. and beyond. US would be highly delighted if their bloody islamic jihadist allies conquer and destroy Christian Russia. In fact, the CIA covertly planned a muslim invasion of Russia just a few decades ago.

It was in the early fifties. Read it on the link below:

Oh, you mean back when the Americans were good, honest God-fearing Christians, there was no Russia to speak of, and the soviets were godless commies trying to spread communism through Europe and the US?
Let me see if I can follow your “logic”: a “few” (like 6) decades ago, the US allegedly tried to foment nationalism among the Uzbek tribes of Afghanistan, hoping that it would spread to what is now Uzbekistan but was at the time a soviet province, and you’re trying to pass an attempt to start a secession movement as being a “muslim invasion” of communist, atheist “Russia”, all along while trying to make it seem like the US was religiously driven? Well, there’s a Uzbekistan now – was Russia invaded by muslims in the process?

Thats funny…you saying “god bless him” to someone who has sarcasm for another guy that believes in a fictitious “god”. What the world doesn`t need….another person who thinks that their god is better than someone else s god.

Islam is a barbaric cult of inbred, murdering, raping pedophiles. Ban all religion.!. and the world would be a far better place..
Mirren10 says
islam is the only religion in the world today whose tenets advocate murder, torture, rape, theft, paedophilia, destruction and mayem.
So why don’t you take your witless moral equivalencing elsewhere ?
alan triplett says
Islam is the only depraved cult that I know of that grants its followers the right to rape children, have sex with animals, abuse their women, lie, rob, kill and enslave other people for a living. Islam isn’t complicated, however its lies and deceptions are quite clever.

Russia: Imam arrested, weapons and explosives found in mosque

Weapons in a Mosque? Say it ain’t so!
“Australia: Jihad murderer got his gun at mosque”

“…France closes 3 mosques, finds hundreds of weapons”
http://hotair.com/archives/2015/12/09/while-we-fight-over-trump-france-closes-3-mosques-finds-hundreds-of-weapons/
There are thousands of similar stories. In fact, a Google search of “weapons in mosque” brought up *2,000,000 results*.
Voytek Gagalka says
Perhaps Google have been boosting its false positive in searches to prove before Chief Obama that “Islamophobia” is indeed rampant in America, don’t you think?
gravenimage says
Not really, Voytech. I believe there are so many Google hits for “weapons in mosque” because this is a common occurrence all over the world.
Here are a couple more stories:
“Tunisia: Police find weapons in 40 mosques”
http://www.jihadwatch.org/2015/07/tunisia-police-find-weapons-in-40-mosques
“Police seize weapons in mosque raid”
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1419533/Police-seize-weapons-in-mosque-raid.html
The above is the notorious Finsbury Mosque in London.
Here’s what president of Turkey Recep Erdogan infamously had to say on the subject:
“The mosques are our barracks, the domes our helmets, the minarets our bayonets and the faithful our soldiers…”
Muslims treating Mosques as armories is nothing new.
David says
“What? An imam? Inconceivable!” He must be another Israeli or American who is simply posing as a Muslim cleric and who is trying to undermine the peace-niks of the religion of peace.
mortimer says
The entrenched wishful thinking of Western left-libtardiles will ignore news like this, even if 99% of imams have weapons in the attic. They believe (without evidence) that Islam is ‘basically the same’ as left-libtardism and cultural Marxism.

If you were preaching to a room full of lunatics would you not want to be well armed at all times?
SoCalMike says
I’m not a big fan of Putin but compared to Obama, Putin is a traditional American.
Obama is more ideologically akin to Stalin, Lenin and Marx who uses the US Constitution as a foot mat and toilet paper.
Mazo says
Stalin hated homos and sent them to the gulags. Obama supports homo rights.
gravenimage says
SoCalMike was not talking about what Mazo refers to as “homo rights”–he was referring to Obama’s enabling of Islam.
I may not entirely agree with SoCalMike’s views on Putin’s opposing of Jihad–after all, he is still enabling Iran’s nuclear ambitions and countenancing the imposition of Shari’ah in Chechnya–but Mazo’s deflection of meaning here is just more Islamic bs.
Mazo says
cravenmirage is full of shyte again. Stalin “enabled” Islam? Its clear what SoCalMike was referring to when comparing Obama with Stalin, Lenin, and Marx.
Hey cravenmirage, let other people speak for themselves.
gravenimage says
What a moron–I never said Stalin enabled Islam, and neither did SoCalMike.
Doesn’t this Muslim apologist have anything better to do than gin up patent absurdities against good Anti-Jihadists here? Besides blowing things up, probably not.

I`m hoping China will sort out islam (pigs be upon it), because the rest of the world is blind to the problem. Or maybe worried it will get out of hand and cause massive unrest if they dare call islam what it really is…a barbaric religious cult.

Mosques are the worst places : where only hate is spread ! Some of my friends are Muslims and they don’t go to Mosques cos there you only find hate preachers and radicals ! No surprise at all !
I hope Putin does his job well – not like our pathetic Western leaders !
duh_swami says
Another Ian who seems to have been influenced by one of those ‘perverted versions’ of Islam that Rasool Obama talks so much about…
It has the power to cloud men’s minds and subjects them to chronic psychotic episodes…
He must have been reading the ‘radical’ perverted version…If you read perversion, you will become perverted and bad things will happen to you…Look what happened to this Imam……Some might say that, that’s his karma…well it ism but it is due to the actions of jinn…But that’s a story for another time…

If possible, it would be great to learn how Russia dealt with him. The U.S., Canada and Europe could learn something.
Celtic says
Has anyone ever heard of a Hindu-Temple, a Church, a Synagoge or any other form of temple containing explosives and assault rifles? Strangely enough – only the “religion of peace” time and time again is found to have weapons within their temples of worship. Nothing to see here, Islam is peace.
