Al-Qaeda claims Ivory Coast jihad mass murder attack

Mar 13, 2016 3:59 pm By Robert Spencer

Vying with Boko Haram, the Islamic State in West Africa, to see who can murder more Infidels.

Ivory Coast

“Twelve dead in raid on Ivory Coast beach,” AAP, March 14, 2016:

Fourteen civilians and two soldiers have been killed in the Ivory Coast beach resort of Grand Bassam when gunmen stormed the popular weekend retreat and opened fire, President Alassane Ouattara says.

“Six attackers came onto the beach in Bassam this afternoon … We have 14 civilians and two special forces soldiers who were unfortunately killed,” Ouattara said during a visit to the site. The six attackers were also killed, he said.

The North African branch of al-Qaeda, meanwhile, claimed responsibility for the attack, according to a monitoring group.

Interior Minister Hamed Bakayoko earlier said that security forces had “neutralised” the attackers.

“Three hotels in Grand Bassam were attacked this Sunday by armed men. Security and defence forces intervened immediately and were able to neutralise six terrorists. The clean-up operation is under way,” he said on state television.”

An officer from the national police earlier said that at least 12 people, including four Europeans, were killed as gunmen opened fire on beachgoers.

“For the moment, we have a total of 12 dead, including four Europeans … We don’t know yet if there are others. We are doing clean-up operations right now,” the officer told security forces during a briefing attended by a Reuters reporter after Sunday’s attack.

Grand Bassam is a weekend retreat for Abidjan residents about 40km east of the commercial capital Abidjan. Its beaches, bars and hotels are popular with Westerners….

    What was the tagline of the Aliens Versus Predator series? Oh, yeah – whoever wins, we lose…

      The solution is obvious as I previously mentioned.

      We urgently need to build millions of “Muslim Deprograming Centers” at every peaceful beach on earth.

      — until these Islamic Aliens of Boko Haram, and the Pious Predators the Islamic State in West Africa have no other option left but to gladly accept our grandiose show of good-willed intentions with hugs and smiles — SARC.

    Another day another jihad mass murder attack. That makes approximately 28,000 deadly jihad terror attacks since 911. And one could conservatively guesstimate that law enforcement officials have prevented tens of thousands of other planned Islamic terror attacks.

    One would be forgiven for thinking that this “jihad phenomenon” has something to do with the texts and teachings of Islam. Or would that be an “Islamophobic” thought crime?

    We ex-Muslims living with Islam’s formal and informal death penalty for apostasy know that Mohammedanism is a despicable fraud.

    The North African branch of al-Qaeda members who slaughtered the 14 civilians and two special forces soldiers were no doubt killing infidels in hopes of acquiring the promised virgins in Islamic paradise.

    They were also likely hoping to acquire some human booty in the form of infidel slaves and/or sex-slaves. The Quran permits Muslims to own infidel slaves and sex-slaves and uses the term “those whom your right hands possess” to describe said slaves.

    >>>>>

    THE QURANIC SANCTION OF SLAVERY

    The institution of slavery in Islam was formalized in the following Quranic verse, in which Allah distinguishes free human beings or masters, who exercise justice and righteousness, from the dumb, useless and burdensome ones, the slaves:

    Quran 16:76 Allah sets forth (another) Parable of two men: one of them dumb, with no power of any sort; a wearisome burden is he to his master; whichever way he directs him, he brings no good: is such a man equal with one who commands Justice, and is on a Straight Way?

    Allah warns the believers against taking the slaves as equal partner in status and in sharing their wealth, lest they have to fear them as anyone else:

    Quran 30:28 …do ye have partners among those whom your right hands possess (i.e., slaves, captives) to share as equals in the wealth We have bestowed on you? Do ye fear them as ye fear each other?

    Allah recognizes some human beings, namely the masters, as more blessed by Himself than the less favored slaves as part of His divine plan. He warns Muslims against sharing His gifts to them equally with their slaves. Those who would take slaves as equal, warns Allah, would deny Him:

    Quran 16:71 Allah has bestowed His gifts of sustenance more freely on some of you than on others: those more favoured are not going to throw back their gifts to those whom their right hands possess, so as to be equal in that respect. Will they then deny the favours of Allah?

    Allah does not only sanction the institution of slavery, He also gave divine blessing to masters (Muslim men only can own slaves) to have sex with the female slaves:

    Quran 70:29–30 And those who guard their private parts, Except in the case of their wives or those whom their right hands possess—for these surely are not to be blamed

    Quran 23:5–6 And who guard their private parts, except before their mates or those whom their right hands possess, for they surely are not blameable

    Therefore, if there are women amongst the captives or slaves, Muslims are divinely sanctioned to have sex with them as they do with their wives. This verdict of Allah founded the institution of sex-slavery or slave-concubinage in Islam, which was widespread in the pre-colonial Muslim world and continued well into the mid-twentieth century. As far as legal marriage is concerned, there is a limitation of four wives for a man at one time [Quran 4:3], but no such limitation on the number of sex-slaves.

    Allah also gave a divine sanction to Muslims for acquiring female slaves for sexual engagement by waging wars against the infidels:

    Quran 33:50 O Prophet! surely We have made lawful to you your wives whom you have given their dowries, and those whom your right hand possesses out of those whom Allah has given to you as prisoners of war…

    Muslims can engage in sex with the captured slave women even if they are married, but not with the married free Muslim women:

    Quran 4:24 Also (prohibited are) women already married, except those whom your right hands possess…

    There are other verses in the Quran that talks approvingly of slaves and capturing them in wars. Thus, according to the divine commands of the Islamic God as enshrined in the holy Quran, Muslims are allowed to keep slaves. They can amass slaves by waging wars, have sex with the female slaves, and of course, use them as they wish. For Muslims, having sex with female slaves is as legal as having sex with their married wives. Slavery appears to be one of the most desired divine privileges in Islam, since Allah took the pain of reminding Muslims about this divine right time and again in so many verses.

    Muslims do not pull this crap on a peaceful beach when they know that a sure and certain holy retribution awaits their jihad training congregations.

    Whether one agrees or disagrees with such a solution is beside the point.
    It is merely an objective statement of fact of common sense reality of how the world works.
    I am not advocating one approach over another.

    The Wishful thinking approach is not doing very well at the moment.
    Its current Battling Average calculation is a perfect — ZERO point ZERO.

    I ‘m European . If the next massacre happens in Germany or the Nordic countries I predict a backlash. Most Europeans know the danger of Islam , we are not fools but we believe that not everyone is bad. Patience is running out . Salafist mosques are filled and we see it every Friday
