In the wake of the jihad terror attack in Istanbul that killed 41 people, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called for a united front of “civilized nations” to fight against “the scourge of terrorism”, while former Israeli president Shimon Peres called on the leaders of the world to “join hands in an uncompromising war against terror and destroy the forces of murder and hatred”.
Meanwhile, Yesh Atid leader Yair Lapid pointed out that “twelve million Muslims have been killed by other Muslims since 1948″. He contrasted that number with that of the Arab-Israeli conflict which he indicated to be “0.3 percent of this.” He also highlighted that most of those killed were part of Arab Muslim armies that tried to invade Israeli territory.
While all of this is valid information, Westerners still have not collectively moved beyond the elementary step of identifying who the enemy of modern civilization is, ie. Islamic jihadists who have been operating at various intensities and scales through 1,400 years of history. We have persisted in navel-gazing, and in trying to figure out this behemoth of evil through the lens of sentimental modern Western constructs, such as calling for more gun control, babbling about Muslim alienation, blaming right-wing judgmental attitudes, obsessing over past national wrongs (long corrected) and other such froth.
Also, while the world sends condolences to Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the terror-supporting Turkish leader ironically funds the Islamic State, forces Islamophobia victimhood upon the world, advances the Islamization of Turkey, and has carved a reputation for himself for his visceral hatred of Israel and Jews, despite his recent convenient regional partnership with Israel. He also fervently denies the Armenian Genocide and violently suppresses the Kurds.
“Muslims killing Muslims in droves, but Israel the one being condemned”, Jerusalem Post, June 29, 2016:
Yesh Atid leader Yair Lapid said Wednesday after the terror attack in Istanbul that killed 41 people that it was time for the world to “wake up.”
“Twelve million Muslims have been killed by other Muslims since 1948,” Lapid said. “The number of people killed during the Arab-Israeli conflict is 0.3 percent of this.”
Lapid said that while even this number is too high, most of those killed were part of Arab armies that tried to invade Israeli territory, or terrorists who tried to harm innocent Israeli citizens.
“However, still, the UN, international organizations and the world continue to unhaltingly condemn Israel and are extra careful about any condemnation of Islamic violence,” he added. “They are careful like it’s fire, until the fire burns them.”
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called for a united front by “civilized nations” to fight against “the scourge of terrorism.”
Additionally, President Reuven Rivlin extended his condolences to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan following the deadly attack….

EmHotep says
Actually attack was planned by Turkish government and Erdogan to make people obey the islamic law sharia. In the same day the government gave permission imams to officially solemnize marriages. Turkey is the biggest IS base in the world and we are trying to survive here….
gravenimage says
Things are fast Islamizing in Turkey under Erdogan, I’m afraid.
Falsafa says
“…actually the attack planned by the TR government…”
a bunch of “mad hatters” the lot of you. readings your ridiculous comments – no better than the article which prompts this “feeding frenzy” of comments from the anti muslim crowd – makes me wonder where you get your delusions from. comical and beyond disbelief!
Tom W Harris says
Who ya’ crappin’?
t. says
Haters of what m**her f**ker?
And yes we’re haters of an ideology that uses human blood as its fuel for over 1400 years now. If only I had a cold glass of water in my hand and your face is close enough to me!
Wake up, god damn it! Get out of this prison in which you were trapped all your life by the hard conditioning you were exposed to, since a very young age.
linnte says
T ! Thank you! Well said.
Godwin says
Yes, for the killing of the dirty infidels for the last 1400 years, this M killing M in droves is certainly a Divine retribution.
Lately the Turks had poked the Russian Bear n eye. Probably the KGB could have supplied bombs to distabilize Turkey. Just a tip for tap action..
Karma in action.
Hope says
We are not anti-muslim.
We are anti-jihad.
We are anti-sharia.
linnte says
For myself I clarify your “we are not anti Muslim” statement. I am not anti PEOPLE and Muslims are people. But what makes them Muslims is their ideology, and THAT I am anti! How does one separate Islam from the person calling themselves a Muslim? By recognizing they have been brainwashed and debilitated by their poor choice of ideology AND REQUIRING they adhere to Western Laws above Shari’a. But they can’t. What a mess they have put us in!
Jerry says
In order to successfully being anti Jihad and anti Sharia,
there is only the trivial matter of canceling the Koran and
the Hadith and effectively canceling Islam before it
succeeds in canceling us.
There is no Islam without Jihad and Sharia and there is
no Jihad and Sharia without Islam.
Walter Sieruk says
Such ISIS jihad suicide /homicide bombings in the Ataturk Airport in Istanbul were as brutal and cruel as these bombing are murderous. Those deadly jihad attacks do lead to an important question, which is “Why are the jihadist bombers are , so very, delusional that they actually want to become human bombs ? ” Some of the reasons are that such violent and deadly people are the outcome of the extreme brainwashing that is done in Islamic mind programming centers which are more widely known as mosques and madrasas, by the Muslim clerics, such as the imams and in some countries as Afghanistan and Iran also the mullahs. In those Islamic mind programming centers youth are thoroughly indoctrinated into believing in the Islamic doctrine from the Koran. as found in 44;54. 55:56. 78:31.., of a sexual/lust filled paradise with many virgins, houris, in it for the Muslim male who dies fighting for the cause of Islam in the jihad. First and foremost, those who come out of those places of extreme brainwash are so very warped, sick and deluded that they actually view such murderous bombing attacks as “martyrdom operations” Likewise, they are so very damaged that they have literally become dangerous to self and others. In addition, the Bible does warn about false teachers who ingrain a belief in a doctrine of a story of a /lustful/lust-filled place with much sex in it. For the Bible warns about false teachers, the Muslim clerics do fit this description, in Second Peter 2:18. Which reads “For they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh…” Furthermore, many a times a jihad –minded Muslim in his death recording talks about “the wedding with the virgins” that he will have after he becomes a “martyr.” Such a belief Jesus would denounce as being based on false doctrine and false teaching. For Jesus taught “Ye do err, not knowing the scripture, nor the power of God. For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angles in heaven.” Mathew 22:29, 30. In contrast to the delusional Islamic pipe-dream of the jihadist in the Koranic story/doctrine of a place with virgins, Christians have the reality of Second Peter 1:16. Which reads “For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ…” [K.J.V.]
Angemon says
Erdogan can run Turkey into the ground, burn it down, piss on the ashes and flush them down the drain, for all I care. He and his ilk are NOT to be allowed into the EU, under no circumstance. And they should be booted out of NATO as well.
DFD says
Hi Angemon,
Turkey wont make it into the EU. Every member state has a final veto right against any new applicant. Hungary, Slovakia, Slovenia, Serbia, Poland, etc., will never allow Turkish membership.
Booting out of NATO, yes. But with steel tipped working boots! I trust you agree.
Falsafa says
and more BS comments from the anti Turkish bigoted, racist.
Oliver says
NOW the Turks ARE A RACE?
IT SEEMS, TO THE LEFTISTS, ANYONE WHO DISLIKES (FOR LEGITIMATE OR NOT0 REASONS PEOPLE OF ANY RELIGION, NATIONALITY, OR WHATEVER ARE RACISTS.
When I was in school, there were three races; Occidental (mostly Caucasian): Oriental and Negro ( black, in the US now “African-American–a term coined by Jesse Jackson).
Now-Muslims are a race; to Fals—Turks are a race, etc.
By the way, Turkey was funding ISIS- and selling the oil that ISIS stole in Iraq.
And if there are more bombings there-(in Turkey)-I agree with Angemon.
No big loss
linnte says
Turkey is a Muslim country as you well know. Why would anyone in their right mind support any Muslim country? Opening the border between the EU and Turkey would be the end of Europe, if it’s already not too late. Islam must be eradicated and Muslims need to stay in Shari’a countries where they can have life their way. The imposition of Shari’a Law in European countries MUST never happen. Nor here in America!
It doesn’t matter what speculation or who, makes guesses about the Istanbul airport bombings. It’s just hashing around ideas which is a good way to deal with the horror of Islamic State cruelty upon society. The important fact is, Islam is vile and evil. Muslims are stuck in a brainwashed state of denial and are content to see EVEN the destruction of their own people. Liberty WILL prevail because YHWH through his son, Jesus, gave people CHOICE deliberately. The greatest sin Muslims do is deny themselves the right of choice. Liberty is CHOICE!
Angemon says
Hi Falsafa. You wrote:
“and more BS comments from the anti Turkish bigoted, racist.”
What race is Turkey, a nation, again? Also, what do you have to say about what your elected president said a couple of years ago:
Would you be upset if I called you a Georgian or Armenian? What if I said you were a devout Christian or Jew?
Angemon says
Indeed I do.
biff says
Republicans and Trump are directly responsible for Muslims killing people.
Everybody knows that.
Islam is a religion of peace, it could not possibly be Islam.
Oliver says
I assume that you are being sarcastic
if not, and you really think that I think that you are being stupid.
Cleanse ignorance says
Oliver, Frankly, Biff is merely being overtly sarcastic. For the fact that, Islamic terrorism has become lunacy on a grand scale even in the minds of Children and the most retarded among Mankind. .Satire does manifests in different forms.
Oliver says
Cleanse, I thought so- as from other comments that he has made.
However, USUALLY it is Bush that is blamed, not Mr. Trump.
And, I agree- satire does manifest itself in different forms. (And, my first sentence- I assume that you are being sarcastic).

But the Muslims Jihadis kill go straight to Paradise. Islamic State is doing them a favor!

God is at the present time enlarging hell to accommodate more of these radicals.

Excellent article, Christine Williams! More facts and statistics we can use to confuse and disarm the Liberals.
biff says
Does anyone know if infidel women killed become part of the 78 virgin’s that you get for Jihad?
Are the 78 virgin’s conjured up by Allah?
Does Mohammed or Allah have sex with them before or afterwards?
If a Jihadi get’s 78 women, how many women does Mohammed and Allah have?
These are important issues that we need a Mufti to answer.
Nigel GFF says
And do these 72 raisins have any say in their fate?
Ninsuna says
And are the raisins “Sunmaid” brand? Which would make sense, being maidens.
And how many of those horny jihadis wish they could commit suicide again upon discovering they’ve earned a whole bunch of raisins instead of a one-way ticket to Allah’s Virgin Whorehouse?
Oh, the humanity! 😀
CogitoErgoSum says
Muslims don’t know for sure that Muhammad entered Paradise when he died. Muhammad said that even HE did not know if Allah would grant HIM entry into Paradise. The best way to insure one’s self of Paradise is to die in battle with the infidels (and apostates) in Jihad. We don’t really know the cause of Muhammad’s death.
Here is a link to a video of David Wood and Sam Shamoun discussing this matter:

Greyhound Fancier says
If I were Mohammed, I’d be pretty worried about getting into heaven, as well.
Mohammedanism has misled more people away from Jesus of Nazareth, and misled more others to hideous acts of violence, than any other force in the world since it was unleashed as a scourge on the world 1400 years ago.
linnte says
Muhammad was poisoned by a Jewish woman. He is not in Paradise right now! Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Another huge inconsistency in Islamic ideology.
Oliver says
Did Mohamed even really ever exist?
MS Case says
Oliver…no one can prove he ever existed…In my opinion he did not exist but was made up by a bunch of radical nomads.
aaron morand says
a bad night out on the desert….bad mushrooms or what? actually the jihadist who
dies as a result of war meets 72 VIRGINIANS in his paradise and they are pretty
pissed off at all the crap Islam has been doing…so, you figure it out…..
John Johness says
I was told that a woman goes to heaven ( Al Jannah) and can choose between her husband ( if he is there) and a young man. But this may be a Shia belief.
The Takfiri (ISIS) believe that the people killed in their attacks, if they are devout Muslims, go straight to Heaven ( which BTW is not easy – so that is a plus)..
Other people who call themselves Muslim don’t go to heaven straight away they have to wait and then their life is weighed up – sort like the book of accounts.
And the rest of us – well I think we get molten lead poured down our throats.
Greyhound Fancier says
Those are good questions, because according to Mohammed, the pedophile prophet, Hell is mostly populated with women.
Where do the houris come from?
If the few women not in Hell go to Islamic heaven, are there enough to go around? Suppose there are too many “martyrs” – are they given 72 houris as well?
Ali Bey says
Mortimer, can you tell me if “anti” and phobia have exactly the same meaniing. Since we always read “antisemitism” and “islamophobia” But never “semitophobia” or “antiislamism”. Phobia is defined as a persistent, irrational fear of a specific object, activity or situation that leads to a compelling desire to “avoid” it. It doesn,t say “to atack it” or to “exterminate” it. So I don,t see how anybody, not being “erdoganish” can qualify “phobia” as a crime , and specially when this specific phobia is caused by real crimes.. And no need of to qualify as crimes the apalling ones commited by ISIS, since there are many more commited by non ISIS muslims encouraged by the prescriptions of Muhammad and the Koran Thank you.
abad says
“Anti-Semitism” and “Islamophobia” are liberal catchwords, if that helps.
DFD says
Agreed, at last, some good news…
abad says
Hey better each other than non-Muslims. Really. Just round them all up, put them in one Muslim-friendly nation, and let them at each other.
They’ll be doing the rest of the world a tremendous favor.
Wellington says
As I’ve written before, there are four givens in life: 1) death; 2) taxes; 3) Muslims killing non-Muslims; 4) Muslims killing fellow Muslims.
4) is far preferable to 3) and both 3) and 4) overlap with 1).
Greyhound Fancier says
And if the government is well managed, our 2) are used to reduce 1) – by protecting us from Muslims, and not interfering with 3) and 4).
Helping non-musics escape the wonderful world of Islam could be a good use of 2).
gravenimage says
Muslims killing Muslims in droves, but Israel and Westerners get condemned
……………………………
Yup.
DFD says
Hi Graven,
aren’t those Koreans and Japanese lucky, in their innocence?
Jerry Howell says
Muslims fiercely kill other Muslims! Maybe they know something we should know!
Oliver says
I had read ( I THINK, NOT SURE) that there are some 73 Muslim sects/sub-sects etc. And 72 of them are false.
And the 73 have to fight each other- and not until the 72 false ones are eliminated will the world know the true faith.
Which raises the question- why aren’t they doing this-IE. killing all of the members ( not sure if that is the right word) of the other sects?
That definitely would make the world safer.
perhaps, that is what ISIS is trying to do- kill Muslims not of their sect; getting lackeys elsewhere (IE like in Nigeria, Somalia, etc0 to do some of their work; then kill them.
I would be fine with that, if they would leave civilized people alone.
Greyhound Fancier says
Why aren’t all 73 false? and the root from which the 73 came?
Oliver says
Greyhound–I was MERELY relating what I had read.
PERSONALLY, if all 73 sects/sub sects etc all killed each other ( and took some of their leftist/communist friends with them) i would not have a problem.And think that the world has gotten better.
Edward says
“Muslims killing Muslims in droves”
Hmm! What does the quran say about this attrition?
Allah is smart…..less muslims in the world….the more safer is the world going to be!
It is going to be “The Religion of Peace” after all.
I beginning to believe that the “God of the Ten Commandments” is orchestrating all of this. RIGHT!
Edward says
An added thought: Could it be that God ordains that we punish within ourselves when we fail to follow His ways and His ways only. It is written that our God is a jealous God. He angers when we follow other gods ways.
Do not worship any other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God. – Exodus 34:14
linnte says
Has anyone heard if any Americans were killed, or other non Muslims?
Cecilia Ellis says
Linnte, the most recent information I could find is provided in an article from which the following is an extract:
“At least 41 people were killed in the Tuesday terror attack on Istanbul’s airport, including 13 foreigners who hailed from China, Ukraine, Uzbekistan and other countries, officials said.”
“A Turkish official said five travelers from Saudi Arabia and two from Iraq were killed in the terminal suicide bombings. One national each from China, Jordan, Tunisia, Uzbekistan, Iran and Ukraine are among the dead.
It’s not clear if the remaining 28 slain passengers all hailed from Turkey.”
“Another 239 people were injured in the blasts — up from 147 reported Tuesday — but more than 100 of the wounded have already been released from the hospital, Sahin said Wednesday.”

Thank you Cecelia. I know every life is precious no matter what country they are from, but I am very fond of Americans? I appreciate your post! Hoping soon to get a real computer instead of a simple tablet which will make researching things much easier. Blessings!
Oliver says
I had read and also heard on the radio THAT THERE WERE NO AMERICANS killed or injured.
That was this morning. Did not hear a news update after.
Matthieu Baudin says
Our Universal Civilisation is regularly blamed for the actions of its enemies, and all too commonly accepts a measure of responsibility. It’s a sick cycle that we find ourselves caught up in; our ability to be self critical and open minded is exploited and turned against us by a range of totalitarian creeds, the most significant and militant these days being a resurgent Islam swinging the Jihad sword.
Thanks Christine for another top rate article.
islam :- the religion of killers says
It’s the way Muslims have always lives, THEY HAVE ALWAYS KILLED EACH OTHER, since mohamid killed good people
The only difference between then is now is the internet and the media
MS Case says
Speaking of killing Muslims…….Why has the free world not eradicated the small force of terrorist and in fact all terrorist groups?…Well it is because of “Collateral Damag
The sane world does not want history to show that they killed a huge group of “innocent people” Those are the “Collateral Damage” Those civilian people who are entwined with the terrorist in their strongholds. Actually the only innocents would be the children,the aged and the infirm…Some would also include women.
Look folks these so called innocents are dead anyway…If they try to run away the terrorist will kill them if they stay they will be killed by the invaders whomever the invaders may be. The so called innocents will be required to fight along side the terrorist so again they will be killed.
Now the decision is… do we wipe out these terrorist groups..as you note I will not even give them a name…they are terrorist. Period. Or do we continue dropping firecrackers on them, as some have called it and keep letting their tentacles do their “Chip away” tactics throughout the world…World governments….It is past time do do what has to be done…so pull you heads out of your……out of the sand and let’s get on with making our world safe again…..and after you do this you must make it be known that if ANY country that attempts to start this madness again will be destroyed.

Strange that in the poorest countries the population grews faster than in the richest. The poorest moving to the richest instead of changing.
More dyiing of starvation, bad medical care, epidemies, lack of water, lack of food than of terror and wars.
The poorest countriest should take on full responsibility and change.

Richard– i agree, but a point to ponder. ESPECIALLY WITH AN ELECTION COMING UP.
VENEZUELA WAS ( and still could be) a RICH COUNTRY.

Dum Spiro says
Here’s an excerpt from a BBC article I found on Turkey’s Recep Tayyip Erdogan (did you know this?):
“[Erdogan’s] pro-Islamist sympathies earned him a conviction in 1998 for inciting religious hatred.
He had publicly read an Islamic poem including the lines: ‘The mosques are our barracks, the domes our helmets, the minarets our bayonets and the faithful our soldiers…‘
He was sentenced to 10 months in jail, but was freed after four.”

This deadly violence of Muslims killing Muslims, as seen this week at that Airport in Istanbul ,Turkey, appears very strange to some Westerners. Such people of the West don’t realize or understand the brainwashed mindset of Muslims who are also engaged in the militant jihad for Islam. For the jihadist/Muslim chant is “Death to infidels and hypocrites.” Meaning death to non-Muslims and also those Muslims who refuse to take part in the violence and killing of the jihad but instead want to live peaceful non-violent lives.. That’s explains the phenomena of Muslim killing Muslims. Furthermore, Those jihad suicide /homicide bombings in the Ataturk Airport in Istanbul were as brutal and cruel as these bombing are murderous.
