The Sunni/Shi’ite jihad has killed far more people than the trumped-up propaganda term “Islamophobia.” Yet no one seems particularly concerned about it as a human rights issue. Perhaps too much concern about it would in itself be “Islamophobic.”
“Syria conflict: Deadly blasts near Sayyida Zeinab shrine,” BBC, January 31, 2016:
At least 45 people have been killed in three blasts near the Shia shrine of Sayyida Zeinab, south of the capital Damascus, Syrian state media say.
Scores of people were also reported to have been wounded.
The shrine, which is highly revered by Shia Muslims, has been targeted before, most recently in February last year.
The attacks came as delegates from the Syrian government and opposition groups gathered in Geneva for tentative UN-sponsored peace talks.
The main opposition group backed down from its threat to boycott the talks. but says the Syrian government must meet its demands if negotiations are to start.
Syrian state media say the blasts near Sayyida Zeinab were caused by a car bomb and two suicide bombers.
TV footage showed burning buildings and destroyed cars.
The shrine contains the grave of one of the Prophet Muhammad’s grand-daughters. It continues to draw many Shia pilgrims, despite the civil war.
BBC Arab affairs editor Sebastian Usher says Shia fighters from around the region have joined the conflict in Syria on the grounds that they wish to protect the shrine from the civil war.
The Lebanese Shia movement Hezbollah has cited it as a key reason that it chose to fight on the side of President Bashar al-Assad, he adds….

I think for these occasions allahu akbaring is wholly appropriate.
mortimer says
Disagree. Murder is always tragic and a crime to be deplored and prosecuted.
RichardL says
not sure you actually disagree.
allhu akbar accompanies murdering for allah by the followers of allah. That’s all I was trying to express. I cannot say allahu akbar myself as I don’t believe the devil god allah exists and thus I cannot rejoice in the Muslim way when they kill each other.
abad says
Oh it will be.
Not by the USA nor any other nation on earth.
Most certainly not by any man or woman, either.
If you know what I mean.

“He will be a wild donkey of a man; his hand will be against everyone and everyone’s hand against him, and he will live in hostility toward all his brothers.” – Genesis 16:12
Written about the descendents of Ishmael 2,000 years before Mohammed (father of all liars) crawled out of a cave with the Quran (book of all lies).
gravenimage says
Knight, Arab Christians aren’t “wild donkeys”–just Muslims are, and this is true whether they are direct descendants of Ishmael (Arabs) or not.
Angemon says
Muslims killing muslims because they deemed the muslims they’re killing are not muslim enough. Not that it has anything to do with islam or muslims, since the victims were muslims, while the killers were… erm… not true muslims? See? Nothing like a logical fallacy to fix broken logic!

Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey, UK and France are the ones who created and are still backing, funding and arming this new evil islamic barbarism and religious genocide against minorities in Syria. Thank God for Russia for standing up to their evil and genocidal plan against minorities in Syria and let us hope and pray that Syria becomes a new Stalingrad for the crazed regime changers of this world and their barbaric islamic jihadists.

O my, here comes “Christianblood” yet once agin with his pro-Putin and glory-to-Russia comments masquerading as posts about jihad…
it’s not only Muslims who practice taqiyya!

Shame on you!
Do you know That America admitted 525 Syrian muslim refugees and only 1 Syrian Christian refugee into the US since Paris jihad attacks? What is bases for this do you think? Read it:

Yes–it is absolutely shameful that America and Europe have not taken in more Christian refugees from Syria, as many Anti-Jihadists here have noted.
But while “Christianblood” constantly touts Russia as the savior of threatened Christians throughout Dar-al-Islam, the sad fact is that have only accepted *two*–yes, this figure is correct–refugees from Syria since the conflict began. No indication of their religious affiliation.

The West should definitely do *far* more to offer sanctuary to fleeing Christian refugees–but “Christianblood” does not want us to know that Russia is essentially doing nothing at all.

Dear graven, the VOA link u provided is nothing but US MSM propaganda!
Alex says
I think “Christian blood” is right. The West has armed Assad’s opposition, which destroyed Syria and fueled the rise of Isis. All this to overthrow Assad.. and now this conflict has destabilized the whole Middle East and Europe. In addition, Isis has targeted Christians and secular Muslims.
Adrian says
LOL…. even the phrases “Christianblood” uses are straight out of the St. Petersburg Russian troll handbook!
da svidanya, Comrade… blow Putin’s horn somewhere else.
The Kremlin is wasting its rubles on you!

Keep up the good work. Your turn tomorrow Shias.

Obama fault — (or credit)
Ever since Obama told Muslims how absolutely wonderful they are at the Cairo speech they have ramped up their Arab Spring kill-crazy frenzy.
One more flattering speech by Obama and they will all be history.
Go for it, Obama

In the meantime the genocidal islamic Turks are issuing warnings to Russia.
Watch this short commentary video:
Richie says
Turkey would lose to Russia- what worries me though is that the Islamified Europe and US governments will side with Turkey
Christianblood says
Western Europe and USA (under Nato) are already sided with the genocidal islamic Turks.
Richie says
yest somehow I think Muslims will invent a way to blame the Jews
خَليفة says
That would be resting place for Zaynab bint Ali.
Muslims so respect Fatima ( Zaynab’s mother and Mohammed’s daughter ) and yet treat women in general so poorly.
All of Mohammed’s children died young, most in childhood, Allah knows best.
Mohammed had no surviving sons. Allah knows best.
Fatima bore Mohammed’s only grandchildren. But Fatima dies at 18 or 28. Allah knows best.
This is the perfect example for Muslim males – to have your kids die young, to have no sons live to have children. And, Let’s not forget all the incest and in fighting and struggling and killing for power that continued to plague Mohammed’s progeny. ( who were, really more like Ali’s family since they were his sons ) And all this fighting for power and incest and in fighting continues today in the Muslim world.
The ONLY solution for this world to have peace is to completely eliminate Islam. Even if Islam controls the entire earth, Islamists will never stop being cruel to each other. When will Islamic women find peace? When will Islamic children find peace? When will all Muslims agree not to killer each other differences of opinion? As long as Islam exists, the answer to these is Never.

Syria: Sunnis murder 45 people near Shia shrine south of Damascus

Muslims murdering other Muslims. What could be more Islamic?
DFD says
gravenimage says “…Muslims murdering other Muslims. What could be more Islamic?”
Obvious answer, in my humble opinion, the Arab spring is blossoming. Muslim democracy has arrived, they don’t discriminate any more. I hope they become even more democratic, among each other.
I know, it’s a vague hope, OK, wishful thinking, so what…

Our sense of justice tells us that we should think about the “underdog” which, in this case, is the Shiites muslims which are only about 11 percent of 1.5 Billion muslims. Graven, Please give me a single case of a Shiite suicide bomber blowing up a Church, or Shiite jihadists murdering or burning Westerners or Christians on video while screaming allahu akbar or flying civilian planes full of people into buildings, or murdering hundreds of Parisians in theaters or restaurants etc, etc…
Apart from the evil, antisemitic Iranian regime, Shiites should be our natural allies because they are just as threatened by Orthodox islam as the rest of us are.

Muslims killing Muslims.
Allah does not give, she only receives. She has a heavy Muslim soul addiction.
She’s bloated in the East and can’t move.

It siis the religion of peace please remember that. Actually the religion of submission, if you do not submit they kill you
