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

Obama: Orlando jihad killer inspired by “propaganda and perversions of Islam”

Jun 13, 2016 1:23 pm By Robert Spencer

Exactly how was the Orlando jihad massacre a perversion of Islam? Obama didn’t say, of course. It would have been refreshing if he had deigned to address the fact that the Qur’an says: “If two men among you are guilty of lewdness, punish them both. If they repent and amend, leave them alone; for Allah is Oft-returning, Most Merciful.” (4:16) The Qur’an also depicts Allah raining down stones upon people for engaging in homosexual activity: “We also sent Lot. He said to his people: “Do you commit lewdness such as no people in creation committed before you? For you practise your lusts on men in preference to women: you are indeed a people transgressing beyond bounds….And we rained down on them a shower of brimstone: Then see what was the end of those who indulged in sin and crime!” (7:80)

Muhammad makes clear that Muslims should be the executors of the wrath of Allah by killing gays. A hadith depicts Muhammad saying: “If you find anyone doing as Lot’s people did, kill the one who does it, and the one to whom it is done.” (Abu Dawud 38:4447) And: “Stone the upper and the lower, stone them both.” (Ibn Majah 3:20:2562)

Perversion of Islam? How? No Islamic apologist has yet explained why, if Muhammad said that Muslims should kill gays, that they actually should not do so.

Obama delivers remarks at the Islamic Society of Baltimore mosque in Catonsville, Maryland

“Obama: Orlando Killer Inspired by ‘Propaganda and Perversions of Islam’ on Internet,” by Bridget Johnson, PJ Media, June 13, 2016:

WASHINGTON — President Obama said after a meeting in the Oval Office on the Orlando terrorist attack today that access to “very powerful weapons very quickly” is “a problem regardless of their motivations.”…

Obama added that “at this stage, we see no clear evidence that he was directed externally” by ISIS leaders and “there’s no direct evidence that he was part of a larger plot.”

“As far as we can tell right now, this is certainly an example of the kind of home-grown extremism that all of us have been so concerned about for a very long time… one of the biggest challenges we are going to have is this kind of propaganda and perversions of Islam that you see generated on the Internet.”

The president noted that the killer, Omar Mateen, purchased his weapons legally with the three-day waiting period in Florida.

“But it does indicate the degree to which it was not difficult for him to obtain these kinds of weapons,” he said. “…We are also going to have to make sure that we think about the risks we are willing to take by being so lax in how we make very powerful firearms available to people in this country.”

“My concern is that we start getting into a debate, as has happened in the past, which is an either/or debate, and the suggestion is either we think about something as terrorism and we ignore the problems with easy access to firearms or it’s all about firearms and we ignore the role, the very real role, that organizations like ISIL have in generating extremist views inside this country.”

      THE ALL-PURPOSE AND NOT-JUST-GAYS VERSES IN THE QUR’AN for killing non-Muslims are in the second to last chapter CHRONOLOGICALLY, titled Taubah (Ultimatum) recorded just a year before Muhammad died.

      THEY CANCEL ALL PREVIOUS PEACEFUL PASSAGES ABOUT INFIDELS. Go to http://www.citizenwarrior.com and use the search box for “The Qur’an’s last word on non-Muslims”.

      If you are not already familiar with non-chronological chapter order, and have not yet learned about abrogation — canceling earlier verses — read it when you are undistracted.

      And, for a comprehensive understanding of why the Religion of Ending Up in Little Pieces is so successful, find “The terrifying brilliance of Islam” at the Citizen Warrior website, or at http://www.inquiryintoislam.com.

      Both resources have many other articles and links — superb tellers of the truth, created and maintained by dedicated counter-jihadists. Tell those clueless members of your family and privilege-guilt friends to visit them, too.

        Islam Question and Answer
        General Supervisor: Shaykh Muhammad Saalih al-Munajjid
        Mon 8 Rmd 1437 – 13 June 2016
         – Principles of Fiqh » Jurisprudence and Islamic Rulings » Punishment and Judicial Sentences » Adultery/fornication and Homosexuality.
        38622: The punishment for homosexuality

        It is narrated from Khaalid ibn al-Waleed that he found a man among one of the Arab tribes with whom men would have intercourse as with a woman. He wrote to Abu Bakr al-Siddeeq (may Allaah be pleased with him) and Abu Bakr al-Siddeeq consulted the Sahaabah (may Allaah be pleased with them). ‘Ali ibn Abi Taalib had the strongest opinion of all of them, and he said: “No one did that but one of the nations, and you know what Allaah did to them. I think that he should be burned with fire.” So Abu Bakr wrote to Khaalid and he had him burned.

        ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Abbaas said: The highest point in the town should be found and the homosexual should be thrown head first from it, then stones should be thrown at him.

      Agree, he was nervous, how many times can he repeat that ism is peaceful and not look misleading and hide his purpose.

      And of course the presumptive candidate prepared her speech just in time, and sought to be heard first, to claim “radical terrorism.”…..Not so bad after the contributions she has received…so the flowery, flowing wordswere spoken, but not without the warning to the masses, not to feel hatred or become violent just because of another “incident” that sure does not appear peaceful and maybe never was peaceful due to the doctrine and laws.

      to murdering more people than he otherwise would.

    Last year US told Nigerian authorities that it won’t help fight Boko Haram jihadists who killed more people that ISIS and Alqaeda put together unless Nigeria accepts open and celebrated homosexuality and birth control. Why is the US so adamant to pressure other nations to reject their religious teachings and accept “gay marriage”? For the US and EU authorities open and celebrated homosexuality (LGBT) is like a new religion and I believe God is punishing US and EU for this using muslim jihadists and it will only increase as long as they tolerate and promote values that are against God, against common sense and against nature.

      What else could you expect from a faithful Muslim man to say when caught off-guard in a situation where his Islamic upbringing in Indonesia tells him to follow Islam in order to re-make America according to Islamic ideals and, at the same time, his late mother’s affection for Muslim men tells him to destroy America from within by supporting homosexuals and bi-sexuals in order to suppress Christianity in America?

      Yes – the fallacy of false choice. The same one Obama has tried over and over to increase gun control.

      My simple idea to discourage gun violence is this:
      10 years in prison for using a gun to commit a crime,
      -Add 10 years if the gun is not registered in your name
      -Add 10 years if the gun is not registered, stolen or filed off serial number
      -Add 10 years if any victim is injured by gun
      Life in prison w/o parole if the gun Kills some during the crime
      Death if the gun(s) kill more than one person during the crime

      Simple and easy to understand.

    “There are those who hate Christianity and call their hatred an all-embracing love for all religions.”
    ― G.K. Chesterton

    Cognate: 4239 praýs (also listed as 4239a/praupathia in NAS dictionary) – meek. See 4236 (praótēs).
    This difficult-to-translate root (pra-) means more than “meek.” Biblical meekness is not weakness but rather refers to exercising God’s strength under His control – i.e. demonstrating power without undue harshness.
    [The English term “meek” often lacks this blend – i.e. of gentleness (reserve) and strength.]

    Meek:

    adjective, meeker, meekest.
    1.
    humbly patient or docile, as under provocation from others.
    2.
    overly submissive or compliant; spiritless; tame.

    3.
    Obsolete. gentle; kind

    Muhammad:
    “O you who believe! Fight those of the
    unbelievers who are near to you
    and let them find in you hardness.”

    they shall inherit the earth.”

    Then about that this murdering terrorist in Orlando was engaging in a “perversion” of Islam. Obama was,again showing own ignorance of about Islam and maybe even he is also in a state of denial about the reality of the violent and deadly nature of Islam. As for that jihadist /Muslim who murders 49 people in the gay nightclub and he was later also killed. This is right out of the Koran ,for in 9:11. instructs “The believer fight in Allah’s Cause,they slay and are slain, they kill and are killed.” For the the god of Islam likes it when non-Muslims [Kafirs] die. For example, the day after the London train bombing, on July 8, 2005 on Palestinian television Imam Suliman Satari said “Annihilate the Infidels… Allah count them and kill them, to the last one and don’t leave even one.” Furthermore Imam Abu Hamza Al-Masri said “What makes Allah happy? Allah is happy when Kafiers get killed. [1]
    As shown in an earlier posting the god of Islam is not the same god as the God of the Bible. The above words of these Imams reflect the example of Islam’s prophet and the teachings of the Quran. “Muhammad now fell upon them [the Jews] slew all the men, nine hundred of them…”[2]
    Moreover, the Quran reads “When ye encounter the unbelievers strike off their heads, until ye have made great slaughter among them. Verily if Allah pleased, He could take vengeance on them without your assistance, but He commandeth you to fight His Battles.” 47:4
    In short, these Imams and their murderous prophet with their bloody Quran show the world what Islam really is. After all, Jesus did teach “by their fruits ye shall know them.” Matthew 7:20. [KJV]

    “perversions of Islam that you see generated on the Internet…”

    I find it amazing to watch the president of USA, the head of a secular government, giving uninformed opinions about Islam, a religion that isn’t his. Shouldn’t he let the authorities of that religion give the explanations?

    Second, the position of Islam regarding homosexuality is not “generated” on the Internet. It is clearly stated in the Koran and Hadit. Many Imans and Islamic scholars have stated that according to Sharia the punishment for homosexuality is death. In many Islamic Countries the law punishes homosexuality with death and in others homosexuality is forbidden and punished with jail and torture.

    I think what amazes me more is Mr. Obama inconsistency. Sometimes he criticizes the supposedly fanaticism of his own coreligionist (americans clinging to their religion), but when Muslims commit terrorism, he is the first one to make excuses for Islam, and trying to dissociate Islam and Islamic terrorism.

    I don’t think it is honest to criticize innocuous “christian fanaticism” and in the other hand refuse to accept there is really dangerous “Islamic fanaticism”.

          He might, indeed, get his explanations from his co-religionists, Saudi Princes.

        That is actually true. Islam, judging by its own core texts, is a conspiracy against non-Muslims. However, it is a half-open conspiracy, if such a thing can exist. The thing is camouflaged often, lied about often, but often openly stated, and anyone who wishes can find out by reading the core texts.

        Bill Warner at the Center for the Study of Political Islam has very short, accurate, clear versions of the Qur’an, Hadith, and Sira,– he has them available at Amazon in hard copy and ebook — for people who don’t have time to try to make sense of the Islamic core texts themselves.

      Yes, same reaction ….how he can stand up and support misdirection or deception about jihad with a smile and measured pauses it quite showing of the skills of a muslim who knows how to mislead. So it does literally disturb, but lately as the pressure mounts, he is showing some nervousness which I observe to be a sign he is worried… a state that I am constantly in since he first appeared on the scene to take power.

      It is truly deception since I beleive he knows not one word of the doctrine can be changed no matter how he plays it, that we should accept and show tolerance, that won’t stop the terror plots or his in plain site subversive attempts. Or his attempts to silence the truth with silencing factual speech or opinion.

      We need a new definition of religion….to clarify and weed out the dangerous ones.

    The “Lot” story you quote from the Qu’ran is directly lifted from the Christian old testament/Jewish bible. It is a lot less hateful than the Christian/Jewish texts it’s based on

    The “hadiths” you quote are both produced by men born 250 years after the death of Mohammed and their hadiths have questionable authority considering the Qu’ran explicitly says to leave them “alone” if they repent because Allah is “merciful”.

    Not to mention entire sects such as Shi’ia who give those Sunni orthodox hadiths absolutely no authority whatsoever.

      ‘The “Lot” story you quote from the Qu’ran is “directly lifted” from the Christian old testament/Jewish bible. It is a lot less hateful than the Christian/Jewish texts it’s based on’

      No, the story in the Qu’ran is different than the story in the old testament. The story in the old testament doesn’t state exactly the sin of the people of Sodoma. The story in the Qu’ran is one possible interpretation, and probably the most popular.

      ‘The “hadiths” you quote are both produced by men born 250 years after the death of Mohammed and their hadiths have questionable authority considering the Qu’ran explicitly says to leave them “alone” if they repent because Allah is “merciful”.’

      “Abu Dawud” hadiths are recognized by Sunnis, 90% of all muslims, hence your opinion or my opinion about the authenticity of the Hadiths is irrelevant.

      .”..the Qu’ran explicitly says to leave them “alone” if they repent because Allah is “merciful”.”

      You conveniently forgot to quote the first part of 4:16 that says “punish them”. Also the Qu’ran doesn’t say how to proceed if they don’t “repent”, I think Islamic countries that sentence homosexuals to dead or torture know very well how to proceed if the don’t repent.

      Whether or not the horrific directions given Muslims today were in the original texts, they are operative and deadly,. It makes no difference when it was invented, it is practiced and taught at the present.

      An Allah who deals with women in the way Islam does, is neither merciful nor wise.

    iThe number of muslims and terrorattacks committed by muslims effects each other, I think.
    There were zero terror attacks in the name of Allah in the U.S.A. and Europe with no immigration of muslims. Never hear of any islamic terror attacks in Latin America with no muslim migration like into U.S.A. and Europe.
    There are more islamic terrorattacks in the muslim world than in U.S.A. and Euroipe and with lots of more musiims.
    Obvious that the fewer muslims there are the less islamic terrorattacks take place and the more muslims the more attacks committed by muslims obeying their tenets and being encouraged to do.

      The only Islamic terror attack in Latin America I can remember was the suicide bombing of the Israeli embassy in Buenos Aires in 1992. Of course, there is a long story of mutual training and admiration between Latin American communist guerrillas and jihadists.

    “going to have to make sure that we think about”

    Thank you, no, I’ll decide what I *THINK* about.
    Freedom of speech my go the way of the dodo bird, but thinking is still under individual control.

    And islam is a *perversion* of everything about life.
    moslims wish for death as other people wish for a fuller and longer life.
    moslims hate some of the best things about life….music, laughter, little children, puppies, …

    islam is perversion.

      Exactly right. Taqiyya is the word of the day. Secretly celebrating while “officially” condemning. That’s why we can NEVER win the war on Islamic terror because the terrorists are the most devout in the Muslim world (Soldiers of Allah) and our so-called “moderate” allies don’t have the moral authority to annihilate Muslim jihadists anymore than they can condemn the teachings of Mohammed. All that the Muslim countries want to do is jockey for political ascendancy among themselves and the dumb American infidels are USED as mercenaries to facilitate their internal political agendas. What good did we do to “liberate” Iraq and Afghanistan when even at their “best” peaceful state they killed apostates, Christians and homosexuals? Bombing Mecca would have been the WWII military strategy if attacked by Muslim jihadists back then. We dealt with the equivalent of Japanese “jihadists” with nuclear bombs in their country. That brought their “GOD-KING” and their political “religion” to its knees.

    That just goes to show one how much the President will lie to protect his political position. The concept of jahid in the body of Islamic law is “warfare against non-Muslims to establish religion.” This concept is taught in every Islamic school grade 6-12, even here in the United States.
    Additionally the objectives of the Muslim members of any outreach program is to goad the illusion of progress were its known that none is possible as a matter of Islamic law. So much of the imman seeking tolerance for Muslims following the Orlando shooting.

    Obummer really digs a hole for himself, if it’s a perversion of Islam – HOW DO YOU KNOW? Are you admitting that you’re a closet Muslim? Have you been speaking with Muslim clerics? On what authority do you make such proclamations? How deep is your knowledge of Islam?

    Hmmm, the president noted that the killer, Omar Mateen, purchased his weapons legally with the three-day waiting period in Florida.

    What happened here, it had been written that Mateen had been under a surveillance scope for several years……oh yes, it’s the government’s new policy when overseeing a muslim’s behavior ….”If you see something don’t say anything.”

    See No Evil, Hear No Evil – turn a blind eye. Huh!

    The ignore all raised FLAGS program is now being implement….so the”Don’t offend a muslim to keep the peace” is the government’s mandate now!

      The problem with “If you see something, say something” is that if you do so, you might be sued for $10,000,000 and the person you reported will be invited to the White House, given thousands of dollars of high tech equipment by Google, be invited to MIT. while you are excoriated and shunned for being an Islamophile.

        Absolutely spot on, Carolyne! I had the same thought each time I heard that slogan being rattled out this week by so many in the political and law enforcement arenas. Admittedly, I did not hear Obama issue such wise counsel.

    Obama’s defense of Islam is just wrong and has been since his speech in Egypt. Islam is a violent self absorbed theocracy. It teaches hate and promotes violence all the while hiding behind a lie of peace. Islam acts as a unit, they have those that fight and sacrifice themselves, those that don’t who support the fighter and all work together and lie about it’s purpose, Islam is only doing what its book tells them to do and the sooner we understand that the easier it will be to shut down mosques and remove Islam from our nation.

    If the mass murderer had been a Christian, conservative or Republican Obama would have no hesitation blaming ALL in that class/ideology for their HATE crime. The Leftists would have been gleefully salivating at the condemnation of ALL conservatives, Republicans or Christians. But if done by a follower of Mohammed (a protected class), then it becomes home-grown extremism, blah, blah, blah. The hypocrisy of the Leftists’ lack of condemnation of the most hateful intolerant “religion” ever invented is going to get us ALL killed.
