Jihad Watch

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

Islamic State urges jihad massacres at US theaters, hospitals, amusement parks

Jun 15, 2016 9:17 pm By Robert Spencer

Mateen “responded to the call of jihad… to send the message that we are all ticking time bombs and may explode anytime and anywhere. The battle, America, is no longer in the land of the Muslims alone, but in your land.” Yes, there will be many more attacks like the one in Orlando, because the political and media establishment are dead set against taking the necessary (and quite legal) steps to prevent them.

omar-mateen-74

“ISIS Praises Mateen as ‘Lion of Caliphate,’ Urges Attacks at Theaters, Hospitals, Amusement Parks,” by Bridget Johnson, PJ Media, June 14, 2016:

An ISIS-affiliated media group issued new statements today praising Orlando nightclub shooter Omar Mateen as a “lion of the caliphate” and a “hero” for slaughtering 49 “infidels” — and calling on other lone jihadis to follow his example….

The Al-Battar Media Foundation, which previously posted an ISIS claim for the November attack on a Jordanian police training facility in which two Americans were among the dead and released a March video celebrating the Brussels attacks while urging more attacks in Europe, released a few separate statements on Orlando a few hours after Obama spoke. Al-Battar is reportedly the media operation of elite ISIS Libyan unit Kalibat al-Battar al-Libi, which is led by a Tunisian terrorist who may at one point have been held by the U.S.

The first statement today featured a selfie of Mateen, who was credited with killing “gay crusader infidels in the city of Orlando, America” and putting “horror, fear and heartbreak” in “the hearts of the infidels” during the “great blessed battle successfully carried out by one Muslim man.”

The statement goes on to slam “hypocrites in whose heart is a disease” and “fear of infidel Trump winning the presidency.”

“The sincere believer is not afraid of the head of infidel America, but is struggling as the almighty Allah commanded him, and waits for the victory of Allah… the blessed battle has made the infidels [feel] horror and fear and panic.”

It asked that Allah bless “Brother Mujahid Omar.”

The statement released half an hour later praised Allah for making the United States “humiliated” and a “laughingstock among nations” during Ramadan — “month of the invasion and jihad, the month of conquests.” ISIS has previously called for a “month of conquest” during the Islamic holy month that ends July 5.

“While the tyrants shut the immigration door in your faces, open in their faces the door of jihad,” the statement adds….

It adds that, as Mateen shot up the nightclub, lone jihadists shouldn’t “shy away from targeting the so-called civilians… the so-called innocent people.”

“Hero” Mateen “responded to the call of jihad… to send the message that we are all ticking time bombs and may explode anytime and anywhere,” the Al-Battar statement said, highlighting the latter part in red. “The battle, America, is no longer in the land of the Muslims alone, but in your land.”…

The statement specifically suggests targeting movie theaters, hospitals, airports, trains, amusement parks and restaurants….

Al-Battar also encourages jihadis to diversify with poisons and gases. “You are in a great jihad; jihad is greater than our brothers in Syria and Iraq.”

Yet another statement released by Al-Battar praised Mateen as a “gallant knight” who after being “immersed in the infidels, the descendants of the sodomites… rubbed the nose of America in the dirt.” It also encourages Muslims to “get out of your home, select your goal from the sons of the cross… and kill.”

    Nonsense. Mateen was an evil criminal and a mass-murderer, just like his ‘prophet’ muhammad was …

    Oh yeah, the evil which is Islam is metastasizing. And still will Western elites make excuses for this wretched creed and draw faux and phantom distinctions between radical Islam and Islam, or Islamism and Islam.

    The sin first and foremost not upon the heads of the evildoers but rather upon those who keep doubling down and who continue providing bogus arguments for the evildoers. In the final analysis, exculpation of evil is even worse than evil itself because it prolongs evil.

    Are you listening Speaker Ryan? Of course you’re not, anymore than is the fool in the Oval Office. Shameful beyond words.

      The media and other elites who think themselves so sophisticated and brilliant can’t tell the different between Methodism and Islam. They believe both to be relics of a past that most of us have left behind, and that religion can’t be all that a big influence on normal modern people.

      They can’t it it through their heads that Islam is important enough to many Muslims that they will willingly die for it, while killing others to win their place in the Islamic version of heaven.

      This 1400 year old Death Cult works by the swing of hegira-jihad-hegira-jihad … that is, immigratrion-attack-withdraw-attack-immigration-attack.

      We are seeing the INSERTION STAGE in Western countries. The next stage is higher and higher levels of jihad ending in massacres of the host peoples, then their enslavement, then the corrosive Shariafication of those societies, then the final process of digestion by Sharia ending in extermination and genocide of the host peoples.

      This is only the beginning of the process of the ANACONDA of Islam that will now start CRUSHING the life of Western civilization.

      Paul Ryan is a huge disappointment in that he will not support Trump’s sensible plan to cut way back on muslim immigration. It makes no sense to take immigrants from backward muslim countries like Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, etc.. where holy war and misogynistic & homophobic sharia law are very popular. Why can’t people understand that muslims from these countries are the worst possible immigrants for any Western country?

        This is what happens in a democracy when you have significant constituencies that vote as a block. This is why we need to put an end to it. In Europe where governments rely on coalitions just to govern is in even worse shape because they have to kiss the Muslims asses. Hopefully they will have military intervention when things pop off for real in Europe!

    LIFESTYLE JIHAD ATTACKS are meant to undermine our Western culture of freedom and impose Sharia law by punishing 1) Gay people for socializing 2) the genders from meeting unchaperoned 3) music 4) dancing 5) art 6) drinking alcohol 7) sports (a frivolity taking time from prayers).

    Former UN ambassador John Bolton said recently, ‘This war, not law enforcement…it’s an ideology that despises our entire way of life.”

    Muslims want to destroy our entire way of life and impose Sharia law.

    On the PBS newshour right now they’ve got a great big hand-wringing for all the poor moslems who will be “singled out” and discriminated against. One lying moslem after another, spewing all the garbage that anybody who has even done a basic bit of education on Islam, knows are all lies. They are basically reading off memorized script cards for the sound bytes. Same exact wording, same exact denial and lies — literally word for word! Peace, love, he wasn’t a moslem, blah, blah, blah… It’s incredible how rehearsed these people are! And they went out of their way to find a caucasian moslem spewing the exact same lies.

    addendum: 8) wearing swimsuits at the beach or swimming pool (especially at hotel resorts where there are kafirs).

    Reading the above list, Western people will see that Muslim KAFIR-HATERS consider ALL kafirs to be legitimate targets on the front line of jihad.

    Jihadists will continue to attack our Western lifestyle until we submit or until we destroy the Islamic faith.

    I wonder if Mateen, allegedly gay, sought to gain paradise by dying as a martyr during Ramadan, a specific act in which, by the first drop of his blood, all his “sins” would be absolved.

    How did his father, a Taliban supporter, get into the country? Have we gone insane? It’s bad enough that we’ve squandered so much on that backward Sharia hellhole of Afghanistan, where nothing is heard, no blasphemous word, and the women are not uncovered all day. Home, home where it’s strange, where the pedophiles and wife beaters play, and apostates don’t live through the day…but I digress.
    What’s the point of fighting them there, only to invite them here? Instead of declaring war on Germany and Japan, maybe we should have just invited them over for milk and cookies, paid for by food stamps of course.

        Afghanistan, along with the next door North West Frontier (NWF) of Pakistan , has been a barbaric land of uncivilized population uncontrollable to its rulers for time I’m memorable! Add to that the tenets of Islam they have been following for the late hundreds of years and what you have a monstrous giant of a land mass with its unending supply of barbarians ! British lost over a hundred of their troops from the colonial Indian army in the Afghan War for which there is a memorial at the Afghan Church in the heart of city of Mumbai (India). Alas ! Once again , this time the USA , is trying to tame the wild Afghans with lessons on their Western democracy ! What a waste of time and energy ! History seems to repeat itself with Pakistan , a neighboring Islamic state , is getting benefitted with huge amount of US dollars in this war !

    Frankly

    I don’the get the evil reasoningredients that all these massacres in hospitals or schools will make us convert to Islam.
    I dunno maybe i’m old fashioned but far from rolling up on a fetal position and crying. I’don’t go after the terrorist with a ferocity that’ll render them dead and extinct

  9. Michael Copeland says

    Notice how Islam co-opts words and misuses them to set itself in a favourable light.
    A massacre of unarmed civilians by a heavily-armed murderer is “a great blessed battle”.
    Likewise the gunning down of the Charlie Hebdo staff was “the battle of Paris”.
    The fantasy feeds on itself: the Orlando murderer is now “a gallant knight”.
    Unfortunately they believe their own lies.

    Al-Battar announces “we are all ticking time bombs and may explode anytime and anywhere”.
    There it is from the horse’s mouth.
    If a Westerner were to say such he would be blackened as a hate-filled racist Islamophobic bigot.

      Jun 16, 2016 at 4:06 pm

      Yes, l’m seriously beginning to think these world leaders like Merkel, Obama, Cameron, Trudeau etc. are simply allowing the invasion of refugees in order to create civil wars, just so they can install a Global Army as their solution. lt’s so strange that all these western leaders have thrown down the ‘Welcome Mat’ for millions of muslims.

    every time an attack happens we hear about the Muslim’s concern of a backlash that never happens. It is just a way to manipulate us. At some point, maybe after the dirty bomb that makes several trillion dollars of Manhattan or DC real-estate worthless we may finally get some backlash. But a scenario such as I described will have to necessitate a world war 3 level response to the entire Muslim world. I don’t see why the civilized countries, the US, China, Europe, and Russia don’t ban together and take out Islam once and for all. We can divide up the middle east and its resources sadly kill everyone over say 12 and send the younger ones to be de-Islamized. I think this is the only thing that can work considering that every civilized country now has sizable Muslim minorities, many of whom will take up the sword should we have to go to all out civilizational war. The other alternative seems to me to be simply allow the entire world to be Islamized. I’d rather see a nuclear holocaust myself.

    Jun 16, 2016 at 12:37 pm

    Muslims are all ticking time bombs according to this pig. Bombs must be defused and eliminated. Since we don’t know which are ready to explode, we should consider “defusing” all that could do damage.

  15. Islofob IS-1 says

    The “faith” of islam is the enemy, of ourselves, and even to those who follow this death cult.

    Two paths of action, one would be to push to outlaw islam and it’s practice, in every way here, in the west.

    It is not a religion, islam is a Death Cult , a fact of actions and it’s teachings.

    I have lost interest in hearing how it can be “reformed” , or chopped into a “faith” that will be able to live among us in peace, there is no proof it will happen fast enough to save the west. This “faith” breeds death from those who follow the teachings , they are bombs that will explode anytime given the chance to kill.

    Two, involves a horror the world WILL be pushed into if we continue on our current path.

    The next attack is already being planned, no shock there.

    Ban and outlaw islam, and those who follow this Cult must understand it is on them to reject it.

    • common sense says

      Jun 16, 2016 at 6:37 pm

      Yes we must detain and disband the Muslim brotherhood and CAIR from US politics period. These groups are the commanders and generals of the Jihadi army.

      BIG headlines must read “Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR actually found to be plotting Jihadists within the US govt. Planning complete take over of the US”
      It would be the truth.
      That would be a start.

      THEN bring our soldiers home to kick in doors here and take the soldiers of CAIR and the Muslim brotherhood out.

      Interrogate and in prison them then we can go after the big fish over seas after securing or borders and immigration.

    In the battle against Islamic terror we do not need gun control.

    What we need is Koran Control and Muslim Control.
