Islamic State claims “jihad against Jews” rocket attack against Israel

“You will surely find the most intense of the people in animosity toward the believers to be the Jews…” — Qur’an 5:82

“Isis terror group claims ‘jihad against Jews’ rocket attack in Israel,” by Tom Porter, International Business Times, October 5, 2016:

An Isis-linked Palestinian terrorist group has claimed responsibility for launching a rocket attack on southern Israel.

The rocket struck the southern border town of Sderot on the Gaza border on Wednesday morning (5 October) after “red alert” warnings were sounded, local media reported.

No one was injured in the attack. Photographs from the scene show a small crater in a road in Sderot caused by the rocket.

Bomb disposal squads were at the scene of impact, which was cordoned off to the public.

Isis-linked jihadist group Ahfad al-Sahaba claimed responsibility for the attack in an online statement, saying the attack was part of the “jihad against Jews”, and a response to the recent arrest of operatives of the group by Hamas, the Islamist organisation that controls the Gaza Strip.

Haaretz reports that the group is allied with Isis-linked Salafist groups in Gaza, and claimed responsibility for a rocket attack on the town on 21 August, which did not cause any injuries. However, 20 people were reportedly injured in retaliatory strikes by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF)….

    ISIS better be ware, Israel will NOT tolerate this sort of thing with out giving a real “ass” kicking – like what happened to Gaza when hamASS tried the same thing a few years ago!

    It should be made known that the Muslim terror organizations as ISIS and other jihad terror entities are all fated to fail in their Islamic agenda of destroying the State of Israel and replacing with Islamic “state.” The reason that jihadist of ISIS will lose in the end and lose hard is because the members of that jihad terror entity are striving against the Will of God. The members who compose ISIS terror are too extremely ignorant to know this, nevertheless the truth is the God had given all this land that now composes the State of Israel, including all of the West Bank, to the Jewish people. This may be found in the Bible, as seen in, for example, Genesis 28:13-15. 35:10-12. Deuteronomy 32:48,49. Psalm 105:7-11. 135:4. In other words the Jews have tall this land by Divine Right. Furthermore, the Jewish people should have this land by historic rights as shown in First Kings 4:20,21, 24,25. 8:55, 56. Still, in all fairness, there is one way for the jihadists who make up ISIS to convince God to change His Mind about being so much for Israel and then cause Him to turn His back on Israel and then have that nation be no more. That way is for the ISIS jihadists to gather together and then change the laws of astrophysics, including those laws of astrophysics the control the sun, the moon and the stars. For God had declared in His Word, the Bible, in Jeremiah 31:35,36. “Thus saith the Lord, Who gives the sun for a light by day and the ordinances of the moon and stars for a light by night…The Lord of host is His name. If those ordinances depart from before Me, saith the Lord, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before Me forever.”

    I am curious–how long before Israel, using triangulation, figures out the exact location of the rockets and blasts it? And possibly a few nearby bases.

    And if near or they go across the Egyptian border, I am sure that Pres. As- Sisi would not have an issue with either killing them or allowing Israel to fly over Egyptian territory and blast them. (He has done that before-allow Israeli jets to bomb terrorists in Egyptian territory)

      It bothers me too. The only way to fight terrorists is to hit them while they are in action. The muzzies use mobile rocket systems. If you don’t see them setting up, you probably won’t get them. Remember the other tactic is to launch from heavily populated areas. They depend on getting things like schools, hospitals and food distribution centers targeted to win the pr war. They do everything they can to tarnish Israel’s reputation. Yes, they would sacrifice all their people to hurt the Jews any way they can. Their own people don’t matter to them. How bad can it get? We lost an embassy, an ambassador and four brave security personnel. No response.
      The dems would sacrifice all of us to maintain their ideology too!

    Oh, ok. Well, I was wondering about thier position on Jews, so it’s good they made the announcement to dispell any confusion that likely existed. What a bunch of geeks. Their being railroaded soon enough in Mosul will hopefully put a delay in this until they can be annihilated.

    No one was injured in the attack. Photographs from the scene show a small crater in a road in Sderot caused by the rocket.

    If it were the other way around – if it were an unprovoked IDF attack that made no victims – I’m certain the photographs from the scene would show several lines of well-arranged “bodies” of “civilians”.

    Haaretz reports that the group is allied with Isis-linked Salafist groups in Gaza, and claimed responsibility for a rocket attack on the town on 21 August, which did not cause any injuries. However, 20 people were reportedly injured in retaliatory strikes by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF)….

    Always trying to push the idea of “disproportionate response”… Who were those 20 people allegedly injured in alleged retaliatory strikes? Members of the groups that lobbed the rockets into Israel? Why should I feel sorry for them?

        Previous quote was not for you.

        This is. Sanity doesn’t come into play when dealing with the muzzies. Most of the world understands that if you pick on someone who can crush you…….
        For mudslimes this is a win-win situation. Kill me, I go to paradise. Kill me, you are the bad guy. Don’t kill me, you are weak, and I will keep trying.

    Islamic State claims “jihad against Jews” rocket attack against Israel
    ……………………….

    So much for the ludicrous claim bandied about by Muslims that ISIS must not be truly Islamic because they hadn’t targeted Israel yet.

    ISIS is 100% Muslim, and very honest about it.

    Yeah Israel is not India to take things sitting down against these savages and butchers, a fitting response is what they deserve.
