Jihad Watch

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

NY Times: “Unlikely anything will ever explain why” Orlando jihad happened

Jun 16, 2016 8:14 pm By Robert Spencer

Establishment counterterror analyst Peter Bergen just can’t figure out why Omar Mateen committed mass murder in Orlando’s Pulse nightclub:

Bergen

“Why Do Terrorists Commit Terrorism?,” by Peter Bergen, New York Times, June 14, 2016:

No doubt we will learn more in coming days. But it’s unlikely that anything will ever really explain why he did what he did. Perhaps that says something about the nature of evil, — that it is ultimately not fully explicable. Even the perpetrators themselves can never really articulate “Why?” in any meaningful way.

“Even the perpetrators themselves can never really articulate ‘Why?’ in any meaningful way.” Really? The jihadis themselves can’t articulate why they turned to jihad? Let’s see what a few of them have to say: in his 2002 letter to America, Osama bin Laden declared, “The first thing we are calling you to is Islam.”

The first thing we are calling you to Islam? You mean, Osama’s jihad had something to do with Islam? That seems fairly well articulated. And in fact, his jihad did have to do with Islam, and he wasn’t alone. Contrary to Bergen’s confident pronouncement, other Muslim terrorists have seemed fairly well able to articulate why they did what they did as well. One Malaysian Muslim said that the Qur’an led him to join the Islamic State. A Muslima in the U.S. promoted the Islamic State by quoting the Qur’an. An Islamic State propagandist’s parents said of him: “Our son is a devout Muslim. He had learnt the Quran by heart.” A Muslim politician from Jordan said that the Islamic State’s “doctrine stems from the Qur’an and Sunnah.”

Other jihadis have pointed to similar reasons why they turned to jihad:

“Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture, and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause and to defend Islam and Muslims. Therefore, killing you and fighting you, destroying you and terrorizing you, responding back to your attacks, are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.” — Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and his fellow 9/11 defendants

“Allah on 480 occasions in the Holy Koran extols Muslims to wage jihad. We only fulfil God’s orders. Only jihad can bring peace to the world.” — Taliban terrorist Baitullah Mehsud

“So step by step I became a religiously devout Muslim, Mujahid — meaning one who participates in jihad.” — Little Rock, Arkansas terrorist murderer Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad

“Jihad, holy fighting in Allah’s course, with full force of numbers and weaponry, is given the utmost importance in Islam….By jihad, Islam is established….By abandoning jihad, may Allah protect us from that, Islam is destroyed, and Muslims go into inferior position, their honor is lost, their lands are stolen, their rule and authority vanish. Jihad is an obligation and duty in Islam on every Muslim.” — Times Square car bomb terrorist Faisal Shahzad

“Jihad was a way of life for the Pious Predecessors (Salaf-us-Salih), and the Prophet (SAWS) was a master of the Mujahideen and a model for fortunate inexperienced people. The total number of military excursions which he (SAWS) accompanied was 27. He himself fought in nine of these; namely Badr; Uhud, Al-Muraysi, The Trench, Qurayzah, Khaybar, The Conquest of Makkah, Hunayn and Taif . . . This means that the Messenger of Allah (SAWS) used to go out on military expeditions or send out an army at least every two months.” — Abdullah Azzam, co-founder of al-Qaeda, Join the Caravan, p. 30

“If we follow the rules of interpretation developed from the classical science of Koranic interpretation, it is not possible to condemn terrorism in religious terms. It remains completely true to the classical rules in its evolution of sanctity for its own justification. This is where the secret of its theological strength lies.” — Egyptian scholar Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd

“And now, after mastering the English language, learning how to build explosives, and continuous planning to target the infidel Americans, it is time for Jihad.” — Texas terrorist bomber Khalid Aldawsari

What about Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the Boston Marathon jihad murderer? Bergen acknowledges that his older brother Tamerlan was an “Islamist militant,” but says of Dzhokhar that he “never seemed to embrace militant Islam.” Yet CNN reported a week after the bombings that “Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, wounded and held in a Boston hospital, has said his brother—who was killed early Friday—wanted to defend Islam from attack.” And just before he was captured, when he was hiding out inside a pleasure boat, Dzhokhar wrote a long self-justification on the inside of the boat, including the line: “When you attack one Muslim, you attack all Muslims.”

But we may never know why, says the learned Mr. Bergen! Because the terrorists just can’t seem to explain why they do it, eh?

    Peter Bergen is the usual BRAIN DEAD PC imbeciles who know as much about Islam as a pig’s knowledge of Personal Hygiene.

    Let me CORRECT him~

    Omar Mateen had homosexual tendencies that are forbidden in Islam. He must have suffered incredible degrees of shame and humiliation from his father who is Sharia compliant and an avoued supporter of the Taliban. Omar became a self hating Gay person who had no doubt that as a gay Muslim he will end up in Allah’s Hell.

    Ladies and gentlemen, the only way for this Muslim to escape Allah’s hell was to martyr himself by slaughtering the very GAY people whom he came to loath.

    By martyring himself, he became a SHAHEED whose every and all previous sins are instantly forgiven by Allah having slaughtered KAFIRS/Infidels for the sake of Allah “Fi sabil Allah”.

    According to his depraved belief system called Islam, as a martyr, Omar will not go to Hell but on the contrary will end up in Muhammad’s WHOREHOUSE version of Islamic Paradise with the 72 virgins.

    Moreover, with his death, he restores honour to his father and family as well as satisfies his god Allah’s insatiable appetite for human sacrifice. It was all a WIN WIN situation for him, his family, Islam & Allah.

      Here is a simpler version, friend:

      Becoming a martyr during jihad guarantees paradise.

      (Being gay is acceptable in Afghan culture, so I just leave that stuff out from Omar’s narrative.)

      • Lord Wrath says

        Jun 17, 2016 at 1:11 am

        I believe you may be a bit off about “Afghan culture”… It is accepted with boys who do not yet have facial hair,,, (The whole Bacha Bazi thing),,, but none the less still violates Sharia Law and when the Taliban return to power (Allah willing) it will once again be a capital crime…

        • JohnJ says

          Jun 17, 2016 at 1:20 am

          There is public displays of power by having a boy and private homosexuality. The latter goes for all Islamic countries. The Taliban will only enforce it when they have to. Otherwise most of their leadership would be dead. They, like all Salafis, don’t care what happens in private. The film of the book the Kite Runner pretty well nailed it.
          I’d say Mateen was not gay in the Western sense he was just Afghan and there ‘anything goes’. The problem in Lot’s time (Sod’em like there’s no Tomorra) was that it was public.

          Hello billybob — Yes, I agree that any communication with this guy should be polite and intelligent, AS ALWAYS with our effort to shake some sense into privilege-guilt fools like Peter Bergen.

          In my suggestion about contacting, I was too brief and left that out.

          Also, my usual suggestion is to make the SUBJECT TITLE of our emails mild enough so that he actually opens them — like “Your recent article about the Orlando event”.

    • mortimer says

      Jun 16, 2016 at 9:36 pm

      If Bergen had not been lazy, he would have read Islam’s foundational source texts and then he would know everything that every Muslim knows: a Muslim imitates Mohammed because Mohammed is the ‘perfect man’.

      Bergen preposterously presents himself as an expert on Islam without having done a fraction of the required reading. He is like a student who read one book out of a hundred on the reading list handed to him.

      F: fail.

    • Beagle says

      Jun 16, 2016 at 9:55 pm

      Exactly IQ. Matteen was relying on the strong language in Quran 9.111 to guarantee him ‘paradise’ for killing and being killed in Allah’s cause to wash away his sexual indiscretions. It’s not complex or confusing when one has read and understood the Islamic texts.

    • mortimer says

      Jun 16, 2016 at 9:59 pm

      IQ Rasooli as usual has the correct explanation to questions that are seemingly unfathomable to Western people. His deep knowledge of the mind of Islam makes the explanation easy to understand, though in fact IQ’s years of study are the cause of his advance analytical abilities. IQ made Bergen look like a pompous, bromide-pedaling fool.

      Well done, again, IQ.

        Thank you Mortimer and all those who have commented on this article

        Without a shadow of a doubt almost ALL those who comment on Jihad Watch are INFINITELY more articulate and knowledgeable about Islam than ALL the so called experts and the FAILED creatures in the FBI Police & Homeland Security

        As ALWAYS the blame for all these failures in security resides with only ONE person: Barrack Hussein Obama (the Muslim Traitor in Chief) who has for EIGHT years FORBIDDEN all the security services of the US from EVER associating TERROR with Islam!

        His hands and those of ALL his supporters are dripping with the BLOOD of innocent Americans (and others) who have been slaughtered by Muslim terrorists under his watch including of course Orlando

      It seems the leftists think that if they all act in a unified front, as if violent Jihad and Islam are unconnected, in the face of continual violence by Muslims, that the citizens will believe it. The paint is rubbing off that leopard and the spots are showing through.

      IQ al Rassooli

      Interesting theory you propose to understand Omars deepest motives for killing infidels.

      One question: What should a homosexual do with 72 virgins?

      It seems to me that the 72 virgins is a punishment more than divine reward for a homosexual. Or did Omar believe that Allah would turn him into a true heterosexual so he fully could enjoy sex with the virgins of Paradise? Another possibility is that Omar believed the beautiful young boys in Paradise are for gratification of homosexual desires in holy martyrs? When wine is allowed in Paradise then sodomy should also be allowed, he could have argued with himself.

      If your theory can answer those questions you may have established a true motive.

      However, from a Christian perspective Bergen is right – we can never know all our motives for doing something:

      “… Furthermore, the heart is so corrupt and deceitful that our motives are unclear even to ourselves. As sinful creatures we devise and create evil things in the arrogance and self-sufficiency of our hearts (Proverbs 16:30; Psalm 35:20; Micah 2:1; Romans 1:30). The truth is that only God can examine our deepest motives and inward desires and only by His power can we ever hope to untangle the uncertainty and depravity that is bound up within our hearts. He alone searches all and knows us intimately (Hebrews 4:11-13).”’

      Part of an answer to the question: “How can I know if the desires of my heart are from God?”

        Jun 17, 2016 at 6:11 pm

        Jan Aage Jeppesen;Wow, are you in denial! the shooter himself clearly gave the reasons for why he slaughtered 50 infidels, wounding 53 more, all while shouting “allahu akbar!” the only question is why we would allow our “leaders” to continue the dangerous import of followers of a philosophy that is in direct opposition to our constitution and Western culture.

        I am really disappointed with your comment because you show a complete lack of understanding Allah’s forgiveness of ALL the sins of the SHAHHED

        Let me enlighten you: Omar Mateen in forgiving all his sins Allah will make him HETEROSEXUAL so that he can have eternal sex with 72 virgins

      Same bogus confusion that we’ve heard before from our leaders and from the MSM. Harks back the reporting on Nidal Hasan, the self-proclaimed “Soldier of Allah” in the Fort Hood shooting (including the Army’s report on that) and the coverage of the Tsarnaev brothers following the Boston Marathon bombing. I vividly recall the (then)MA governor saying, after the Boston Marathon bombing that we just didn’t know why these “two fellows” would do such a thing. Hmmm.

      It’s amazing, really. Doesn’t matter how explicitly or how many times an Islamic terrorist says that he’s doing this for Islam–that just can’t possibly be it.

    Like I said and like Trump said, had their been a few armed individuals who were guards in the establishment he would have very few casualties. But the liberals want gun controls. Simple, do not let Muslims have anything larger than a 22 pistol for home protection since their Bible says kill the infidel. For those using guns illegally or have guns illegally, give them an automatic felony and must be imprisoned for 10 years without the possibility of parole. Should they commit a crime with the gun or rifle an automatic 20 year felony with no parole and of course attempted murder and or murder, life without any possibility of parole. In this case the government gave him a permit knowing his intentions. Sounds more like Obama’s Fast and Furious to me.

    Jun 16, 2016 at 9:16 pm

    OFF TOPIC

    I am really troubled by the reporting coming out of the UK. A man with a long history of mental illness shot and stabbed to death a member of parliament who had been meeting with her constituents. As a left-wing Labour Party politician she was for “Remain”.

    Only one week before the British people can vote on “Brexit”. Latest polls had “Brexit” ahead by seven percentage points. Now this. Media have been quick to report an alleged eyewitness report that the perp shouted “Britain First!” (The “Britain First” movement is strongly in favor of leaving the EU.)

    Subsequent reports, that eyewitnesses now deny having heard themselves that perp shouted “Britain First” but were only relaying second-hand information, are being reported much less.

    In any case, I think this scuttles the chances of the “Brexit” campaign. Would not be surprised at all if the perp hangs himself in jail while prison guards are otherwise unoccupied. If Britain quits the EU, then EU falls apart and every country again defends its borders. If Britain stays, the Brussels gravy train continues and Europe continues to be overrun by Muslim invaders.

    Am I wrong for asking whether some deep-undercover agent whispered in the perp’s ear and manipulated the mentally ill man to do the deed?

    This afternoon I had the misfortune of listening to Peter Bergen on the Michael Medved program (in Los Angeles). I was taken aback when he stated that monitoring mosques would be counterproductive since no radicalization takes place there–tell than to Rudy Giulianni and other true terrorism experts . He then proceeded to state that banning muslim immigration, even if termporarily, would also be counterproductive because the latest terrorist acts were carried out by muslims who were American citizens. I wonder if Peter Bergen has ever heard of the Blind Sheikh, an Egyptian cleric who was mistakenly admitted into the U.S., and who was instrumental in planning the first attack on the World Trade Center, and had plans for the bombing of several bridges/tunnels in New York City. So-called expertis like this disgust me. I just wish that the moderator would have challenged him.

    I read Bergen’s article. He allows that terrorists are in part motivated by “militant Islamist” ideology. He adds that there are generally other factors that play in as well, and that the mix of factors in any particular case varies as to proportions.

    He’s right, and yet the way he presents things conceals the elephant in the room: violently expansionist jihadist Islam.
    I much prefer David Wood’s brilliantly logical explanation of the requirements for jihad:

  15. William says

    Jun 16, 2016 at 11:40 pm

    The term “radical Islamic Terrorism” is a misnomer. Islam in and of itself is radical. The Quran is a radical text, Sharia Law is a radical way of life, therefore the correct term should just be “Islamic terrorist” because Islam itself is radical.

      Add to the above written word in need of tossing aside, trampling asunder, and pulverizing to indistinct, formless, and meaningless, these first hand accounts from a few who survived the horrors those blood-filled blood-stained bathroom stalls and all in them witnessed:

      ………………..

      Santiago did not hear the gunman say anything, but Carter did. Omar Mateen, who was born in New York to Afghan immigrant parents, spoke in a foreign language, she said. Then he called 911.

      “Through the conversation with 911, he said that the reason why he was doing this was he wanted America to stop bombing his country,” she said. “So the motive was very clear to us who were laying in our blood and other people’s blood who were injured, who were shot — that we knew what his motive was. And he was not going to stop killing people until he was killed, until he felt that the message got out there.”

    “Even the perpetrators themselves can never really articulate “Why?” in any meaningful way.”

    (This utterance sounds borderline racist – should we inform ‘the authorities’?).

    What a pratt this man is. The perp’s ‘articulate’ every time they indulge. Allahu ackbar.
    Is that meaningful enough for yer? Their supreme being will suffer no substitution.
    The infidel, who ‘will’ not bend the knee to Allah, is deserving of death & damnation,
    and the perp’s are the boys & girls fit for the job.

    Perhaps Mr Bergen should look off world for an answer – the moon for instance.

    post to them. The blind leading the blind.

Surprise Surprise it is because Democrats are raping you in those hellholes they created for you. Ask your local race-baiter he very, very rich one.
    Now Democrats want illegals, muslims and every misfit worldwide to roam America’s open borders and watch Her die under them.

    ARE THESE PEOPLE STILL HAVE THEIR HEADS UP THEIR BACKSIDES. WHY ARE THEY STILL ASKING QUESTIONS AS SUCH. I SAY THAT THEY SHOULD ALREADY COMPLETING READING THE QUR’AN FROM COVER TO COVER. MAYBE THAN THEY HAVE THEIR QUESTIONS ANSWERED. THE MORE THEY WORK AROUND THE PROBLEM INSTEAD OF DEALING DIRECTLY WITH IT, THE MORE THEY ARE WASTING TAXPAYER MONEY AND THE SECURITY OF AMERICAN CONTINUE TO BE IN JEOPARDY WITH THE MUSLIM RUNNING AMOK WITH WEAPONS MURDERING AMERICANS.
