“The ISIL, Boko Haram and al-Nusrah have been created in line with the US strategy of religion against religion, which seeks to impair the divine face of Islam.” Meanwhile, U.S. officials maintain that those groups have nothing whatsoever to do with Islam: the Iranians are seriously deluded on this issue, or intending to delude the Islamic world.
“IRGC Commander: US Using ISIL to Spoil Islam’s Attractions,” Iran’s state-controlled Far News Agency, May 2, 2016 (thanks to Jerk Chicken):
TEHRAN (FNA)- Lieutenant Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Brigadier General Hossein Salami warned on Monday that the US is seeking to tarnish Islam’s brilliant face through the terrorist and extremist groups’ crimes, as the number of Muslim converts is on the increase in the western world.
“The US-led coalition against the US is fake and the Americans seek to destroy Islam’s attractions through Takfiri and terrorist groups, including the ISIL and al-Nusra Front,” Salami said, addressing a ceremony in Tehran today.
He said the plot comes in opposition to the spread of Islamic thoughts in the world, specially Europe, and said, “For instance, 50,000 people are converting to Islam in Britain annually.”
In relevant remarks last year, Iranian Ground Force Commander Brigadier General Ahmad Reza Pourdastan said that the US has created the terrorist groups in the region to reduce security threats to Israel and impair the face of Islam.
“The ISIL, Boko Haram and al-Nusrah have been created in line with the US strategy of religion against religion, which seeks to impair the divine face of Islam,” Pourdastan said.
“The American and European people’s high tendency towards Islam and (the necessity for) protection of the Zionist regime’s security have caused the US to create the terrorist groups,” he added.

Not a bad idea if it were true- but who would want to practice stuff that promotes killing of people that don’t share ones beliefs or does not believe in separating religion and government?

For readers of this post who want an explanation of why such ridiculous remarks come from Iranian officials like this guy — apparently expecting non-Muslims to believe what he say, take a look at another item up today, titled “Mediocre Minds”

May I know what are Islam’s attractions – murder, rape, incest, loot, invade, misogyny, pedophilia, lies, deceit, terror, slitting throats, 72 houries, etc, etc,.
Quite an attraction. No wonder Muslims
Mockingjay says
Yeah… islam’s “attractions”…
??? / ?!? / !!! /…?
I’m sure a lot of people in the West thought the idea of living in the islamic replucic of Iran quite appealing before isis came and spoiled it all.
Mockingjay says
eh – republic
Jaladhi says
Oops – typo: “Quite an attraction. No wonder Muslims love Islam.”
Hontur says
You forgot another of their distorted “attractions”: Homophobia. Isn’t Iran known wordwide for killing gay people like crazy?

Islam will run wild killing and being killed until GOD sends HIS SON and HIS angels to gather HIS people together Matthew 24:30-44. Islamist do not have a clue what is coming, what GOD will send
Gelmann says
You are right Myrtle, except before the REAL Christ comes, we will see the fake anti-Christ come with the 12th Mahadi, and the Islamic Kalifate, and they will deceive millions of people.

From an earlier statement by your Traitor in Chief;
Meanwhile, we continue to ramp up our training and support of local forces that are fighting ISIL on the ground. As I’ve said before, this aspect of our strategy was moving too slowly. But the fall of Ramadi has galvanized the Iraqi government. So, with the additional steps I ordered last month, we’re speeding up training of ISIL [Iraqi] forces, including volunteers from Sunni tribes in Anbar Province.

“..tarnish Islam’s brilliant face..” “‘..impair the divine face of Islam..” LOL!
Leaving the terrorist groups aside, these Iranian men are so unbelievably dense not to realize the Shia’a-Sunni split, and warring with each other in name of Allah, was sufficient to wipe off the divinity and tarnish the face of Islam.
Islam is the only religion in which the average US member has higher moral values and regard for human life than its founder. Even Reza Aslan isn’t running about with a sword, killing unbelievers, although he might be extracting more jizya from the educational and political system than is warranted.

Summary: Anything bad happens in the world is due to the US and the Jews. Anything good, due to Islam.
That’s all folks.
Whee says
Corollary 1: Since Islam can’t fix the “bad” in the world (other than “blame the USA”), this only means that Islam < USA. That's embarrassing for Islam.
Corollary 2: Muslims fleeing ISIS are going to Europe, not Iran. Yet again, embarrassing for Islam.
DFD says
Well said!
Now, how much do you wan? Where do I mail the cheque to?

Once again the world blames us for something that isn’t our fault. How about instead of blaming us the rest of the world should take responsibility.

I think even the Druids have more to offer a new recruit then does islam!
Other then the creed permitting and even encourageing copulation with camels, goats, donkeys and sheep, what does he think is soooooo damned attractive?
Lanya LaPunta says
If you have ever taken a gander at a mohammedan woman … hijabs cannot hide it all …
Wouldn’t anyone prefer looking at camels, goats, donkeys and sheep?
David says
There seem to be lots of Muslim “students” here in my town. The local college imports them by the hundreds.
The woman smell so bad, when they brush past you in the supermarket, you better just hold your breath. Other wise you may just up and vomit!

Well they might find a fairly attractive goat somewhere.

Quote: ““The ISIL, Boko Haram and al-Nusrah have been created in line with the US strategy of religion against religion, which seeks to impair the divine face of Islam.”
That so-called ‘divine face’ is: …enslavement; no Golden Rule; no free speech; no democracy; jihad – holy war of supremacism; honour killings; taqiyya – sacred lying; taqlid – group think; misogyny – repression of women; rape of kafirs as jihad; genocide; ethnic cleansing; al-walaa wal-baraa – Islamic apartheid; torture; plundering; cruel and unusual punishments; stagnation and backwardness; violence against women; discriminatory Sharia law; hatred of the arts; pedophilia disguised as child marriage; fifty generations of cousin marriage and genetic defects; cruelty to animals; extortion tax to humiliate disbelievers; no historic basis; anti-intellectual obscurantism; FGM; Arab racism; theocratic totalitarianism; vigilantism.
Soooo divine.

Well, they don’t use toilet paper anyway! I agree. If every non Muslim country involved in the Middle EAST LEFT, they would do themselves in. But then Israel would suffer.
Angry Citizen says
If you are are a Psychopath or a Rapist or a Paedophile or, well any Evil Piece of S**T, then I fully agree islam is attractive.
If you are a Sane Civilised Human Being, regardless of Race, Colour, Faith, Sexualilty etc., then islam is an EVIL ABOMINATION.
WorkingClassPost says
Who said that muslims don’t have a sense of humour?
Carolyne says
Good idea. I’ve always been amused when something like a cartoon in Denmark causes muslims to kill each other in the Middle East. We should indeed confine them there and let them continue.
ninetyninepct says
If the IS is destroying Islam’s attractions, then why aren’t Islam and all Muslims doing whatever they have to to get rid of IS? Destroying and removing all extremist Muslims would then make Islam more attractive and worthy of consideration.
Allah would be pleased to see Islam become “more attractive”.
