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

Al-Qaeda top dog urges kidnapping of Westerners until West frees Muslim prisoners

Jul 24, 2016 7:54 pm By Robert Spencer

In recording posted online, Al-Zawahiri called on the global militant network to kidnap Westerners “until they liberate the last Muslim male prisoner and last Muslim female prisoner in the prisons of the Crusaders, apostates, and enemies of Islam.” Not that this has anything to do with, uh…

Zawahiri4

“Al Qaeda chief urges kidnappings of Westerners for prisoner swaps: SITE,” Reuters, July 24, 2016:

Al Qaeda chief Ayman al-Zawahiri has appeared in an audio interview calling on fighters to take Western hostages and exchange them for jailed jihadists, the monitoring service SITE Intelligence Group said on Sunday.

In recording posted online, Al-Zawahiri called on the global militant network to kidnap Westerners “until they liberate the last Muslim male prisoner and last Muslim female prisoner in the prisons of the Crusaders, apostates, and enemies of Islam,” according to SITE….

    We (Westerners) are now ALL OF US on the front line of jihad.

    The escalation of attacks on Western civilians is taking on the character of an all-out war against non-Muslims. Islam is comfortable with the taking of hostages and the execution of hostages as revenge murder.

    How much longer can Western elites HUMOR themselves that Muslims are not enemies of freedom and democracy? How much longer can globalist Western elites avoid studying the foundational teachings of Islam?

    This self-delusion on the part of globalist Western elites is SUICIDAL.

    The Islamic source texts declare unending and exterminating warfare against everyone and everything that is not Islamic.

    Western elites cannot fathom it for they have not done the requisite reading list of foundational Islam to comprehend Islam’s political agenda and divine directives for world conquest…commonly known as ‘jihad’.

      Western elites are dumb, deaf and blind and liars, deceitful, traitors,… They won’t take any action until their necks under the sword of Islam.

        Only fools do not know the danger of the hatred produced by Muslims and Islam!! The hatred is aimed, most of all at Christians, with no Christianity there would not be much danger, they want the country to turn to Islam!!

        • gravenimage says

          Islam *does* hate Christians–but it hates all other Infidels, as well.

        “They won’t take any action until their necks under the sword of Islam.”
        We wish.

        They won’t then either, they will either have escaped or will convert to Islam.
        And betray us patriots.

    Best to assume that any zebibah head has things upside-down and completely ass-backwards, as here with this low-life, Zawahiri.

    More expansively, I will here take a delight in reflecting upon the fact that ALL Muslims through ALL the centuries who have banged their heads five times a day with butts in the air (my God, Muslims can’t even manage to pray with dignity) have done so for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. It rather sums up Islam, I mean the complete uselessness of it all, though I think this assessment should be attended by the comment that Muslims have done so much wrong through the centuries in the name of the fictional Allah, in effect the hand puppet of that human error, Mohammed. If I’m wrong about all this, may Allah, the all powerful, omniscient and blah, blah, blah, strike me dead tonight.

    See you tomorrow.

      And it’s not just that it has been for nothing, Wellington. Lots of things have, in the long view of history, proven unuseful. But few have been so unrelentingly ugly and destructive of everything decent and good as is Islam.

    Ayman al-Zawahiri is a TYPICAL JIHADIST. Both of his parents were from prosperous families. Al-Zawahiri’s father was from a family of doctors and scholars. His mother’s family was in politics. His sister become a professor of a oncology at Cairo University. Al-Zawahiri earned a master’s degree in surgery.

    He has been in the Muslim Brotherhood from his early youth. Al-Zawahiri is a career terrorist. He became the head of Al Qaeda following the death of Osama bin Laden. The U.S. Department of State is offering a reward of up to US$25 million for information about his location.

    We should all ask Muslims ‘Do you know where Al-Zawahiri is?’

  9. mortimer says

    Jul 24, 2016 at 8:36 pm

    For al-Zawahiri there are two words even worse than ‘kafir’: 1) Jew and 2) Crusader.

    He considers both to be enemies of Islam to be exterminated. Al-Zawahiri’s ideology is genocidal.

    Al-Zawahiri considers there to no excuse for analyzing or resisting Islam. He is a 100% obscurantist and a genocidal obscurantist.

    More Muslim savagery. If we don’t allow Jihadists to run free and wage violent Jihad on us, then Jihadists will wage more violent Jihad on us.

    God, I hate Islam.

    “..until they liberate the last Muslim male prisoner and last Muslim female prisoner..”

    Impossible to liberate them – Allah has declared that they are his slaves! He says it dozens of times in the Quran.

    How about we close all mosques within 20km radius of any jihad attack – close, search, if contraband found mosque gets destroyed.

    Punish the group for the actions of the few – tried and true crowd control.

    I’ve noticed that many, many devote muslims have a wierd bump in the middle of their foreheads!
    Is this the single horn of a satanic Demon trying to force it’s way to the surface?
    I know these folks have been worshiping Satan for 14 centurys. But have they actually started to grow demonic horns as well?
    Just curious?

    • خَليفة says

      Jul 25, 2016 at 12:06 pm

      It’s from banging their head on their prayer mat/rug – at least that what they want people to believe ( i.e. that they are so devout )

  16. Jack Holan says

    I’d be remiss not to mention to Al Zawalhiri that it did work against thUs, England, France and Germany when a Russian was picked he was returned within 24 hours. Why? The short story is the Russiandeliveres tio the Head if that terrorist Group a small box.that was opened & it contained a piece of his brother’s anatomy ( we’ll say no more)!So the Russian diplomat was returned within.24 Hours and no more Russians were kidnapped. Keep in mind January 21 2017 when Donald Trump becomes President.

    • Carolyne says

      Jul 25, 2016 at 10:26 am

      One assumes a “Small piece,” of the captive’s anatomy as they only have small ones. This is a large part of their problem. It started in a mutated gene eleven centuries ago and replicated itself in the limited gene pool which resulted from generations of first-cousin marriages. Every Muslim male has this defect, so I’ve heard.

    These madmen are wicked to the core and unless the West is going to be a better killer than the rag-heads they’ll have the upper hand.
    Back in 1985, The Jerusalem Post said the Soviet secret police secured the release of three kidnapped Soviet diplomats in Beirut by castrating a relative of a radical Lebanese Shia Muslim leader, sending him the severed organs and then shooting the relative in the head.
    That incident abstained the terrorists for further attempts against the Russians. You can say it’s barbaric, but hell it’s working.
