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

Robert Spencer Video: Is It “Islamophobic” to Call 9/11 Hijackers “Islamic Terrorists”?

Sep 27, 2016 1:03 pm By Robert Spencer

In this new video, I discuss two recent protests by Muslims against the labeling of the 9/11 hijackers as Islamic terrorists, and show how they’re part of ongoing efforts to intimidate Americans into thinking it wrong to oppose jihad terror.

    No, it’s truthophobic not to.

        But remember that in an age of universal deceit telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.

    Muslims are required to protect their religion by deceiving the kufar, they will always protest jihad terror, then demand tolerance to prevent scrutiny from the infidels especially in the company of another muslim. It is as if the call to terror is not in the verses, nor the plan to create a muslim world caliphate. It is just hateful imagination, not motivation. Which for most who hear, is a relief, that is unless they do some reading of the text of the doctrine. Who cared? Who knew?

      Absolutely right. Just another manifestation of the jihad, which comes in hundreds of variations.
      A religion that defines SIX types of official lies musloons can use, and that praises a ‘god’ who is
      THE BEST OF DECEIVERS??

    Muslims lie and Obo swears to it.
    Whenever Obama speaks, the MSM bows in awe at this alleged prize ‘winner’ of Nobel Peace.

    Calling Islamic terrorism Islamic is an understatement.
    Islam’s rotted core and foundation is terrorism.

    Obama However, did not hesitate to blame the Confederate Flag for inciting a murderer in Charleston S.C. The Flag (Hatred or Heritage?) was roundly condemned by all the enlightened ‘Talking Heads’ as well.

    Muslims smirked and declared, “See, it is not us; it is them”

    But the truth is Islam is 99 % terrorism coated with a thin slimy façade of peace.

    • JMB says

      Sep 27, 2016 at 6:20 pm

      Re the confederate flag, if I understand your reasoning, Obama calls this a symbol of hate and terror but 9-11 is to be forgotten and apologised for as a matter of priority. yes the double standards and hypocrisy is unbelievable, almost criminal.

      OK, now lets go along with Obama and Hillary’s worldview, no doubt supported by the UN and the leftist media. We will have open borders, universal welfare, free medicals and education and in other words establish a paradise on earth, wow! No more wars or religion, John Lennon’s song “Imagine” will be the new world anthem. This is all looking good except strange things will happen, like, our printed money will be worthless. All the sewage systems world wide have collapsed, they are overloaded and no one bothers to fix them. And while things were going well the Mexican immigrants started fighting with the Islamic immigrants, saying we were here first. Also at first the liberal Christians welcomed this new world order but the Muslims, even though religion had officially been abolished demanded that this new found peace be based on Islam, the Pope concurred. But the traditional Sunnis complained that it had to be their version of the faith, a serious fight breaks out. And all the new comers from Africa and the Arab world all wanted 3 or 4 white wives, preferably young girls unfortunately there were not enough to supply their lusts.
      Sorry Hillary and Obama, I don’t really like your new world order. Makes Cloud Cuckoo Land from ancient Greece sound like a model of sanity.

        As the primary tactic of jihad that the Islamic totalitarian world has employed against us non-Muslim infidels for the past 1400 years nonstop, has been MIGRATON JIHAD, waged deliberately non-violently via stealth and deception by Muslims pretending to be peaceful, friendly, and moderate people to invade and infiltrate in mass non-Muslim infidel societies, institutions, governments, and God knows what else, to facilitate mass casualty Islamic terrorist attacks and at the same time to subvert, undermine, and Islamize non-Muslim infidel societies from within for future eventual demographic conquest.

        As a jihad, in stark contrast to terrorism, is a civilizational religious holy war waged preemptively by ALL MUSLIMS IN THE WORLD without provocation, and via any and all means, both violent and non-violent, at their disposal in the cause of Allah to ultimately make Allah’s religion and all of Allah’s followers supreme throughout the world. Which also happens to be, by the way, the sole fundamental purpose of Islam.

        In other words, we are really in the midst of a CLASH OF CIVILIZATIONS between their Islamic totalitarian world, on the one hand, and our Western Civilization on the other hand, and it’s a fight to the finish. When all is said and done, only one of our two disparate civilizations will prevail.

    This calls for the reiteration of three statements . First, Don’t let them fool you, the many apologists for Islam is will endeavor to set up a smokescreen to hide the reality of the truth about the violence and deadly essence of Islam by making the bogus claim that the al Qaeda operatives mass murderer on 9/11 were not real Muslims and that they were breaking the laws of the Qu ‘ran by their violence and deadly actions.” The apologists for Islam will further make the totally false claim that “Those terrorists on 9/11 were only criminals who hijacked the peaceful religion of Islam for Politics.” Those outrageously false claims are weak attempt of damage control for the image of Islam to the West. For the “holy book” of Islam the Qu ‘ran. For the Qu ‘ran instruct in Sura 9:111. Muslims who are engaging the jihad that “The believer’s fight in Allah’s Cause, they slay and are slain ,they kill and are killed “ That’s just what happened on September 11, 2001 the jihadists of al Qaeda “killed and were killed” in those 9/11 jihad attacks against both humankind and America. The Quran also teaches in Sura 9:123 to that jihad –minded Muslims behavior towards non-Muslims “let them find harshness in you…” Those Islamic attacks on 9/11 were indeed very “harsh.” As Sura 2:191 instructs “kill the disbeliever wherever you find them.” That’s a very strange kind of “peaceful religion” if there ever was one. Just to site one more out on many from the Qu ‘ran about the instruction of deadly violence is Sura 47:4. Which instructs “Whenever you encounter unbelievers strike off their heads until you make a great slaughter among them …” Let’s face it, using jet planes a missiles as those jihadist/ Muslims did of September 11, sure made a greater “slaughter among them” then sword can. Wake up West to the actual nature of Islam before it’s too late.
    Second,just over fifteen years ago many Muslims rejoiced in different countries around the world then they found about the outcome of those al Qaeda jihad attacks in which so many people died . They were so glad and happy about all those people who died in such terrible ways. The reason they felt so happy with joy is because ,as the Bible explains such people have had “their conscience seared with a hot iron.” First Timothy 4:2. {K.J.V.] For them that “hot iron” is Islam

    Third, on the day of September 9 some I know who works as a security guard at a public place told me a Muslim actually had the nerve to walk over to him and said to him two Muslim “Jokes” about 9/11. As if it was a funny subject. It’s wrong to even try to “joke” about 9/11. Talk about bad “jokes” those two are the very much worst of all. The first was “What is the difference between September 11, 20001 and a cow?” answer “You don’t keep milking a cow after fifteen years.” Not only is that “joke” awful but those Muslims trying to be funny by say that cruel thing do have some gall because they have no room to talk . For they are still are “milking” the topic of the Crusades and the Crusade have been over for well more than seven hundred years. What gall they have! The second “Muslim “joke” about 9/11 is “On September 11, 2001 the people trapped on the upper floors of the WTC had ordered their pizza sent to them plane.” To say that such “humor” is terrible is an understatement. Furthermore, those Muslim who say those “jokes” are really only exposing their own sick, vicious, callous and heartless Islamic mindset.”

      …………………………….

      This would be grotesque enough if 9/11 had happened in a vacuum–but it did not.

      There have been over 29,000 Jihad terror attacks just since 9/11–including two more in New York City in just the past few days, including bombs going off at a crowded intersection in Chelsea and a meat cleaver attack on a police officer.

      More:

      The second “Muslim “joke” about 9/11 is “On September 11, 2001 the people trapped on the upper floors of the WTC had ordered their pizza sent to them plane.”
      …………………………….

      Sick, vicious, callous and heartless pretty much sums up these “jokes”, Walter. *Ugh*

      A person’s sense of humor–and whom they poke fun at–is *very* telling. In this case, it is the *victims* of Jihad terror who are ridiculed by Muslims, not the perpetrators.

      God, I hate Islam.

      But we are brainwashed into not offending these people. But in a recent incident that I have previously posted here on JW, my wife during a recent stay in hospital had to put up with a Muslim night nurse dresses in Islamic clothing. My wife was deeply offended and very shaken up for a good couple of days afterwards. We are not allowed to offend them in any way while our leaders apologise to Islam when Muslims shoot or bomb us!

    Now it also needs to be restated what should be very the obvious. Which is the following. It’s a strange but common phenomena in America’s modern PC culture that when it comes to Islamic terrorism there are many people who are afraid to call it what it is. That’s odd because no one is afraid to call a person who engages in violence for anarchy and “anarchist terrorist”. Nor are people afraid to call a Marxist who engages in violence for the ideology of communism a “Communist terrorist.” Likewise, a person who commits violence for Environmentalism an “Environmentalist terrorists. “Nevertheless, when it comes to a Muslim terrorist who engages in deadly violence because of the theology and ideology of Islam, many people fear to call that person an “Islamic terrorists.” Strange but true.

    Who cares if Muslims are offended they are repulsive evil demonic Cretins, who have 1 goal world domination & with Politicians like Merkel, Trudope, Obama, Hillary & others they are paving the way for the take over to take place. I am sick & tired of all the mollycoddling of idiots like that Clock Boy & that Hog that worked for an Airline who knew alcohol being served was part of the job then sued the Airline for terminating her because she refused to do her job. I am also sick of Muslim Sympathizers like Colon Kaerpernick who are inspiring young people to hate the US If Hillary ends up in the WH we as a nation are doomed.

    By the time 9/11 plans were hatched the preparation period had accomplished it’s mission of influence of diversity and tolerance, everything was prepared so a President could still the waters with words of not hijacking planes but of hijacking a religion…..now the real trouble begins as very few even knew how numerous men could coordinate such hideous events and what united them. The flood gates are open the waves of danger spread to this day overcoming the narrow streams. It must be a global warming model.religious carbon.

    Muslims are “offended” by any negativity about Islam. Well, I am “offended” by their burning alive of 19 Yadizi girls because they refused to be sex slaves, by the honour killing of women who refused to wear the veil, by the 49 gays murdered in Orlando, by those thrown off buildings, by Christians killed for worshipping differently than them. There are just too many reasons why I am “offended” by them and the millions of people who can’t see what they’re doing.

    The was an excellent presentation, self assured and confident of the truth of the matter. Several article back, we were dreaming of a tag team debating match with Robert Spencer and David Wood against some apologist for Islam (whose name I couldn’t be bothered to remember), and whomever he chooses for his side. Only he wouldn’t dare because he knows he doesn’t have a leg to stand on. This dream team of Spencer & Wood could take on the entire faculty of the Al-Azhar University of Cairo and defeat them all soundly without raising a sweat, because Islam is indefensible in the realm of ideas. That’s why it has to resort to violence to sustain itself.

    A 7th Century tribal religion with a firm goal of global supremacy.

    Now add widespread infiltration of Western nations by “refugees”, the majority of whom share the same hostile cultist beliefs. Add the Internet connecting and propagandizing. Add the forces of the Left, defending and abetting. Add the meglo-maniacs of ISIS directing both immigrants and 2nd generations to murder us at the mall and attack our military and police. Add the availability of modern explosives and weapons, including potentially nuclear weapons. Add their End Times predictions and the Muslim will to martyrdom.

    Tough times ahead folks.

    In reality the Jews were behind 9/11, so many of them didn’t go to work that day in New York. This is what muzzies said immediately after the 9/11 attacks. Muzzies are innocent by definition, they never commit any crimes, even when it looks like it. It’s so preposterous, but the worst about it is that Westerners always comply. In Austria a woman was fined because she had said that then self-appointed prophet was a pedophile. Having sexual intercourse with a nine-year old girl is pedophilia according to our laws all over the West. The judge said he didn’t fine the woman because she had slandered the so-called prophet, nobody could deny she had told the truth, but she was fined because she had offended the Muslims.

    It’s the Muslims’ job to feel offended they always feel somebody does them wrong especially when people tell the truth.

    Deport them all to the newly discovered planet of Proxima Centauri there is nobody to offend them, but I bet they’ll find somebody. When it comes to feeling offended they’re very inventive.

    I am a little disturbed right now. Some years ago, the required text for my son’s Catholic high school theology class was Michael Pennock’s “Catholic Social Teaching.” One of the (many) objections I had to the book was the treatment of 9/11, which never mentioned Islam, Muslims or al-Qaeda, but only referred to “fanatical extremists.” (I actually was able to call this in on Michael Medved’s show discussing this topic.) The take-away of this section was that misunderstanding and overreaction were moral issues but the actual event was not an issue.

    I posted a review on Amazon listing my concerns about the book, which was being used in many religion classes nationwide. I got a healthy response to my review. Many parents were alerted to the troublesome sections of the book.

    Well, just now I searched for my review in respect to this post by Mr. Spencer.

    My review has been removed, and the book has a solid 4-star rating. I know I was not the only reviewer to express my opinion of the book. I am really mad right now. If religion depts or parents are choosing books on moral issues, they are not getting the whole story–which of course we know, but come on.

    • John Stefan says

      Sep 28, 2016 at 4:36 pm

      Miss Icefalcon, maybe you realize that the R.C. in “Nostra Aetate” of October 28, 1965 speaks so highly of the doctrine and the way Muslims worship god that the R.C. accepts the god that they worship. The entire translated document can be found at http://abbey.apana.org.au/Coucils/vatican2/V2non.Htm. And in another document, namely, “Lumen Gentium” of Nov. 21, 1964 there is this quote in chapter 2: “But the plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Moslems: these profess to hold the faith of Abraham and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind’s judge on the last day.” What baloney!! for Jesus says that He is the only way to the Father, but the worshippers of the devil, i.e.allah, even deny that it was Jesus Who died on the cross and, therefore, they deny His resurrection.

  23. John Stefan says

    Sep 28, 2016 at 4:51 pm

    So the Muslims complain again and this time it’s because they don’t want the Islamists, the killers of some infidels, to be called “Islamic Terrorists”. This reminds me of a Slovak saying: “Trafena Hus vzdy zagaga.” “The goose that is hit always quacks.” My, oh, my! When will someone simply tell them as I think such would have been told in my day in the early forties: “You don’t want the truth spoken in this country, then go back where you came from.” But I thank God that in the early forties we didn’t have such a serious outbreak of this Islamic cancer in America. Our clueless politicians who still don’t know Islam have brought it to our country and Obama who favors Islam over Christianity, i.e. allah over the Holy Trinity, and Muhammad over Jesus Christ, Muhammadans over Christians, wants to pollute our country even much more. “God, please help us; have mercy on us.”
