Besides removing supposed temptations to idolatry, Islamic jihadists want to destroy the artifacts of non-Muslim civilizations because doing so testifies to the truth of Islam, as the Qur’an suggests that the destroyed remnants of ancient non-Muslim civilizations are a sign of Allah’s punishment of those who rejected his truth:
Many were the Ways of Life that have passed away before you: travel through the earth, and see what was the end of those who rejected Truth. (Qur’an 3:137)
This is one of the foundations of the Islamic idea that pre-Islamic civilizations, and non-Islamic civilizations, are all jahiliyya — the society of unbelievers, which is worthless. Obviously this cuts against the idea of respect for non-Muslim religious installations.
“Sad scenes at the Orthodox Christian cemetery in Priština – a chapel turned into a public toilette, many graves overrun by weeds,” Serbian Orthodox Diocese of Raska-Prizren and Kosovo-Metohija, October 3, 2016:
On the occasion of a recent visit to the Serbian Orthodox communal cemetery in Priština, Fr. Saša Mitrović the local priest could see sad and disturbing scenes. Recently repaired and cleaned the cemetery chapel was turned into a public toilette and a garbage dump, many graves have been overrun by weeds. Regrettably, this is happening regardless of the communal care by Priština municipality and a presence of a paid guardian. These scenes remind so much of those in the church of Christ the Savior in downtown Priština where the Serbian Orthodox Diocese began cleaning of the site from garbage. The cleaning was interrupted by municipal inspectors (without any judicial order) who forbade any access to the church and continuation of the cleaning.
As the All Saints Day is approaching many Priština Serbs, the most of which cannot freely return and live in the city of their birth, will visit the graves of their dear ones. It is the duty of the Diocese to organize cleaning of the cemetery chapel and the cemetery. There remains a question whether the Priština mayor will be so ardent to send inspectors again and suspend the works alathough [sic] he has done done nothing to prevent using the Orthodox Christian sites as public toilettes.
Bishop Teodosije has given a statement that it is so disturbing and difficult to understsand [sic] that in the Kosovo capital in 21st century Christian sites are used as public toiletters. This demonstrates and alarming absece [sic] of culture and elementary civilizational norms, said the Bishop. Priština Mayor Shpend Ahmeti has recently said in his interview to KIM radio that it was not the duty of the Municipality to take care whether religious sites are vandalized or damaged explaining why he did not take any measures after numerous vandalisms and the recent setting of fire in the church of Christ the Savior. However, as Ahmeti said, the Municipality ir [sic] responsible to prevent “any repairs” in these sites including cleaning and white-washing of walls. Such blatant manipulations with religious rights are a shame for the Kosovo society, said Bishop Teodosije, emphasizing that no one can stop the Church to take care of the dignity of her holy sites and protect them from vandal attacks.

After the Balkan War my father worked with several groups that worked to remove landmines left by various factions. One of his concerns where the number of Saudis coming in with briefcases full of cash, offering to rebuild mosques, if, IF the imams went to Saudi for refresher courses. My father had been in Lebanon when the sh1t hit the fan, he worried he was seeing the radicalize Nguyen of the nation then. Today Kosovo is riddled with burkas and niqabs, clothing that was never traditionally Kosovan. Wahabism already has a bulkhead in Europe.
Veka Fitzfrancis says
*radicalizing, sorry, missed that
Marty says
Absolutely.
In London & many UK towns, islamification is evident, & to condemn
it is decreed to be “racist”
The EU is a de facto Fourth Reich, with Jews leaving for Israel &
the US. Sadly not the UK.
This is what our universities are becoming
“Police were called to a London university last night after Jewish students
were trapped in a room by pro-Palestine supporters who descended on
the building.
A woman was assaulted during the chaotic scenes at University College London
(UCL), which came ahead of a speech by Israeli writer Hen Mazzig.”
Mohammedans are doing for the Fourth Reich what the Nazis did for the Third.
Cleansing Europe of some of its smartest citizens.

Yes–I’d heard that the Saudis entered the region in force, armed with Wahhabism and unearned oil revenue.

This is no surprise as it is a well-known fact that America and its Nato vassals are always on the side of their islamic jihadist allies backing them and arming them to wage jihad against Christians and other minorities. For example, In Afghanistan, the US and its Western allies backed the Taliban/Al-Qaeda jihadists against Russia. In Bosnia and Kosovo, the US and its allies backed the islamic jihadists there bombing Serbian Christians in support of their islamic jihadist allies there and created two new islamic countries there for islamists. In Libya, US and its allies bombed Qaddafi, murdered him and replaced him with jihadists and in Egypt, they turned their backs their long time ally (Mubarak) and chose Mursi a muslim brotherhood thug, and in Syria they have been unsuccessfully trying to replace president Assad’s regime with ISIS and Alnusra and other jihadists. US and its allies know very well that if the Assad regime collapses, genocidal islamic jihadists will rule Syria and they will murder millions of Christians and other minorities there and probably that is one of the reasons why they are backing the jihadists and deeply hate Assad who is the protector of Christians and other minorities. When you consider all of these facts, you come to the conclusion that the US government and Western allies are just as pure evil as their islamic jihadist allies are and there is no much of difference between the two. Please watch the video clip below and see hundreds of churches and monasteries destroyed by the American backed jihadists in the Balkans: Shame on the US! Shame on the West!

Citation needed. This is not the first time you make a claim about the US and Nato arming ant training troops with the expressed intent of killing Christians, and you have yet to produce any sort evidence to back your assertion. Oh, and isn’t your country, Russia, spying Israel, the only safe haven for Christians in the entire Middle East, in favour of Iran, a nation that swore to wipe Israel off the map? Something about removing a plank from your eye before complaining about the speck in someone else’s…
“For example, In Afghanistan, the US and its Western allies backed the Taliban/Al-Qaeda jihadists against Russia.”
Afghanistan was a muslim majority country. Russia invaded Afghanistan. The US supported the local resistance fighters much like Russia supported local fighters in other nations against the US. That you try to derive anything more from it is testimony to how untrustworthy you are. That you leave out that the whole mess in Afghanistan was caused by KGB-backed regime changes, including the assassination by Soviet forces of an Afghani President doesn’t help your case either.
“In Bosnia and Kosovo, the US and its allies backed the islamic jihadists there bombing Serbian Christians in support of their islamic jihadist allies there and created two new islamic countries there for islamists.”
Unfortunate as the intervention in the Balkans was, you have yet to produce any sort of evidence that it was willingly made with the express intent to support jihad instead of a simple case of misguided good intentions leading them to fall for the ruse and sob stories of deceitful mohammedans. It’s was not the first time such a thing occurred. Take, for example, the testimony of the daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador to the US that prompted the US to the First Gulf War, where claimed she saw Iraqi soldiers killing newborn babies in Kuwaiti hospitals and later was discovered it was all a well-rehearsed lie.
“In Libya, US and its allies bombed Qaddafi, murdered him and replaced him with jihadists”
Gaddafi, much like pretty much any other dictator in the islamic world, including Assad and Saddam, dabbled with islamic groups. He opposed those who wanted him out of power and supported those who waged jihad against other nations. Per capita, few, if any, countries gave more soldiers to fight against America in Afghanistan and Iraq than Libya. There were also plenty of Libyans fighting against the Russians in Afghanistan. The Libyan Islamic Fighting Group, who fought against Gaddafi to impose an islamic state in Libya, was founded by Libyans returning from waging jihad against Russia in Afghanistan – i.e., chickens came home to roost. But I guess you only care about jihadis fighting against Russia when you can blame the US for it…
“and in Egypt, they turned their backs their long time ally (Mubarak) and chose Mursi a muslim brotherhood thug”
The US did not choose anyone in Egypt, the Egyptians did. And they ended up regretting their chose so he is no longer in power.
“ and in Syria they have been unsuccessfully trying to replace president Assad’s regime with ISIS and Alnusra and other jihadists.”
And yet, the former president of the Syrian Opposition Front lambasted the US for not wanting a regime change. I guess you know more about what goes on in Syria than the people there… Oh, and Assad has no one to blame but himself for having jihadis in his country. He was more than happy to let Syrian jihadis fight Americans in Iraq. Now that the Americans are out of Iraq, the chickens came home to roost.
“US and its allies know very well that if the Assad regime collapses, genocidal islamic jihadists will rule Syria and they will murder millions of Christians and other minorities there and probably that is one of the reasons why they are backing the jihadists and deeply hate Assad who is the protector of Christians and other minorities.”
This is just feckless mudslinging and baseless accusations.
“When you consider all of these facts”
Dude, you were just, like, “probably”. No fact ever was described as “it’s probably so”. It’s either a fact or it isn’t. If it’s “probably” then it’s not a fact. And that’s a fact.
“you come to the conclusion that the US government and Western allies are just as pure evil as their islamic jihadist allies are and there is no much of difference between the two.”
More mudslinging. Vent that rage gland, CB, vent that rage gland! Let’s take your claim to its logical conclusion. You accused the US and its allies of wanting to kill millions of Christians. You also said that there was not much difference between them and jihadis. So why are Western governments – composed of mostly Christian nations – dragging Christians from their homes and shooting them in the street? Why are not Western governments killing the millions of Christians that are within their reach? Isn’t that what we should be seeing if even only 1/10th of the claims you made were true?
Mr. Farton says
Religious belief usually leads to severe mental retardation. This applies to Islam, Christianity and Judaism, as each one replaces critical thinking with blind acceptance of made up nonsense. Religious people, as always, pose the biggest threat to individual freedom, freedom of speech, human rights and scientific progress.
Jay Boo says
Mr. Fart
Now you just are Cut & Paste spamming.
Can’t you distinguish the filth of Muhammad’s disgraceful existence from your same old false equivalence.
Scott Rose says
And to that point — the SPLC just smeared as “extremist” a Muslim immigrant in the U.S. who made a cartoon of Jesus and Mohammed saying hello to each other. According to the SPLC, such a cartoon makes the Muslim an “anti-Muslim extremist” because so many Muslims say they object to depictions of Mohammed. (Never mind that over the centuries, umpteen Muslims painted or otherwise depicted Mohammed).
Now, had the same person made a cartoon of Jesus and Moses saying hello to each other, the SPLC wouldn’t have batted an eyelash.
Jews and Christians, unlike many Muslims, don’t act out violently because of a perceived “insult” to their religion.
And it’s very worrisome that the SPLC is now enforcing Islamic anti-blaspheme laws.

Thank you very much for honoring me ( and all other Christians /Jews ) with these qualifications . IT IS AN HONOR SINCE KNOWING WHERE THIS IS COMING FROM .
John Stefan says
Farton, So far you are proof that what Jesus said is very true. If a person does not want to believe, he will not believe even if his own brother would rise from the dead. Before you kick the bucket which will surely take place, may God be successful to humble you and bless you to believe the truth.

Mark A says
So this is an example of ultimate result of the western intervention in Kosovo back in the 1990’s?
Ginger says
Syria is likely to go the same way if the west doesn’t stop meddling.
DFD says
The above was to Mark A.
To Ginger,
You say: “Syria is likely to go the same way if the west doesn’t stop meddling.”
I think that’s the whole idea.
A) That pipeline and
B) denying the Russians their naval base.
BTW, this may sound like nitpicking, I wouldn’t say “the west”, but the **western leaders **. Or perhaps usurpers of power, to be more appropriate. I can only think of few of us westerners wanting to deny a peaceful, secure life for the Christians and Jazidis under Assad. Unfortunately none of them has oil and petro bucks. Or can you think of other reasons?
DFD says
Sorry, **the below**, I buggered that up in the thread….
DFD says
A friend of mine was a NATO peacekeeper in Kosovo, in the 90’s. He witnessed it first hand, still is upset when he talks about it. He saw churches and chapels destroyed and desecrated. Christians being ethnically cleansed by the freedom loving, liberated Bosnian Muslims. They were not permitted to “interfere in local matters”. Strict orders.
Kosovo is where King/general Lazar made a stand with his Serbian Knights against the Ottoman hordes; His battle-cry: “Today we give up everything for Christ, but Christ for nothing!” That’s why Kosovo is such sacred ground for the Serbs, they knew they’d lose, but they bought us valuable time, and weakened the Ottomans.
Kosovo is as meaningful for the Serbs as Stalingrad is for the Russians or as Berlin is for the Germans.
Wasn’t Clinton in charge in the 90’s?
LB says
Thank you DFD for bringing second-hand insight into some of the things that had happened in the Balkans during the 90’s. Unfortunately, many Western apologists (even here on JW) are still under the influence of anti-Serb propaganda run by the MSM, that they fail to realize that the whole thing (or rather most of it, to be precise) was just another case of muslims (Bosnian and Albanian) attacking Christians (Serbs), much like the ones we read about every day except on a much larger scale.
The only difference was that the Serbs (Christians) HAD THE AUDACITY to actually defend themselves and their people in neighboring countries from muslim oppression. And how did the West (NATO) respond? By bombing the Serbs for 3 months straight! That’s what happens when you go against muslims.
Which is why Israel is in a deadlock with Palestine — should it dares to do anything on a larger scale against muslim occupation, Israel would be nuked into oblivion by every Western nation. Instead, they can only try their best to shoot down every missile and take out every Palestinian “lone wolf” for as long as they’re able to. It’s actually incredible how similar Israel’s situation is with Serbia, except Israelis are much more hated in the world because they are Jews.
For anyone interested in what really went on in Kosovo during the 90’s, check out the brilliant Julia Gorin’s blog, where she provides many useful links as evidence.

Kosovo: Muslims turn Orthodox Christian chapel into public toilet

This is grim, but should not surprise. Muslims have used churches as garbage dumps before, urinated in the Cave of the Patriarchs, and used Jewish gravestones to line their latrines.

There is no such country as Kosovo, there is only Serbia. Once the crumbling EU is no more and the Europe wide civil war against Muslims gets underway, the Serbs will reclaim what is theirs.

Unfortunately it would be still UN. But this one is totally incompetent when it comes to stop war. Even Russia is more capable of ending this whole mess but it shouldn’t be an ally but at least the Russians aren’t trying to commit suicide.

Catholic Albanians are extreme Albanian nationalists and hate Serbs and support Kosovo. Some Albanians in Kosovo are Catholic.
There are Orthodox Christian Albanians in Albania itself and some of them are extreme Albanian nationalists.

So you say even the non-Muslim Kosovo Albanians are extremists? Probably, still 95% of all inhabitants of Kosovo (not only Albanians) are Muslims, according to Wikipedia citing the census of 2011. That’s 19 of 20.
