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

Gaza: Muslim cleric says Jerusalem truck attack permitted by Sharia

Jan 10, 2017 7:51 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

Ahmad Abou Aklein, a Gaza extremist imam, said the attack that left four Israelis dead and another 17 wounded is allowed under Sharia Islamic law because “it targeted an enemy that occupied Muslim land.”

To think that this lie ever came to be believed by any thinking person with a shred of knowledge of history is a commentary on the effectiveness of the technique of Josef Goebbels, Adolf Hitler’s minister of propaganda, who stated:

This is the secret of propaganda: Those who are to be persuaded by it should be completely immersed in the ideas of the propaganda, without ever noticing that they are being immersed in it.

Aklein also stated that:

“None of the casualties was an innocent man who lives in a land that is his own. None of the dead could validly claim that occupied Palestine is his country of origin.”

This dangerous propaganda against the state of Israel and the Jewish people as occupiers, oppressors and practitioners of apartheid is similar to what is permeating North America and Europe today: the ideology of Muslim victimhood, in which Westerners are deemed guilty “Islamophobes” and racists who somehow deserve what we get from jihad terrorists. Mercilessly repeated to people in Western countries is the lie that every free country is guilty for colonialism and must forever find ways to stop provoking Muslims into behaving like barbarians: Western women must change how they dress; the West must abandon its so-called “drinking culture”; we must stop (allegedly) attacking Muslim lands; we must fling open doors to unrestricted immigration, so as not to be deemed racists; and we shut our mouths about Islamic infiltration and intimidation, lest we provoke jihad attacks against us by being “Islamophobic.” Last but not least, we are required to ignore the past 1,400 years of Islamic jihad aggression, as if they never happened.

“EXCLUSIVE – Gaza Cleric: Jerusalem Truck Attack Permitted by Sharia”, by Ali Waked, Breitbart, January 10, 2017:  

Sunday’s deadly truck-ramming attack in Jerusalem is permitted by Sharia law, a Palestinian cleric claimed to Breitbart Jerusalem.

Ahmad Abou Aklein, a Gaza extremist imam, said the attack that left four Israelis dead and another 17 wounded is allowed under Sharia Islamic law because “it targeted an enemy that occupied Muslim land. None of the casualties was an innocent man who lives in a land that is his own. None of the dead could validly claim that occupied Palestine is his country of origin.”

Aklein referred to the entire state of Israel as “occupied Muslim land.”

“Compare it to a Chinese or an Iraqi soldier who comes to the United States or a European country and occupies it,” he added. “Will they let it happen? Will they not resist in every possible way? This is what the hero did today, he fought against the soldiers of the occupation and killed them, that’s all.”

“Palestine is occupied by an enemy that kills our sons and turns our wives into widows, that’s why our jihad is not only permitted by the Islamic Sharia, but by international law as well,” he said. “Even the UN allows the sons of a certain country to occupy those who occupy their land.”

The extremist cleric asked why the Israelis, “who are so afraid of the killing of soldiers and settlers, continue to occupy our lands? They have no place here, they have no choice, except getting up and getting out of this holy land.”….

      Actually, they were way late to the party.

        I’m not sure ‘way late to the party’ really applies given that Jews have been in Israel for at least 3,000 years. Additionally, I’ll take your link with a grain of salt given this assessment:

        “Since 1967, Israelis have been moving into settlements in the West Bank. Some go for religious reasons, some because they want to claim Palestinian land for Israel, and some just because they get cheap housing from subsidies. There about 500,000 settlers in 130 communities, which you can see in this map. The settlements make peace harder, which is sometimes the point: for Palestinians to have a state, the settlers will either to have to be removed en masse, or Palestinians would have to give up some of their land. The settlements also make life harder for Palestinians today, dividing communities and imposing onerous Israeli security. This is why the US and the rest of the world opposes Israeli settlements. But Israel is continuing to expand them anyway.”

      Many Muslims are still claiming that Spain is Muslim land called al-Andalus, even though the Moors invaded it and made the Christians and Jews 2nd class dhimmis in their own country.

    The same is with India. The islamic invaders , first Arab,then Turk, and then Mongol islamic barbarians perpetrated the most horrible violence upon Indians. They took a large portion of Indian territory under the sword of islam, but could never take the whole of it. Thanks to the Marathas and the Shikh powers. Had there been no intervention from the rising powers of Britain and France ,there would be no islamic menace in today’s India. We could drive them all back to their barbaric lands of desert and death.
    History is now punishing Britain and France for their crimes against millions of innocents in the Indian Subcontinent. They can only come out of it only if they can drive all muslims from their fatherland and decimate islam as their sacred duty to free the future citizens of this world from the constant fear of living (and dying ) under the criminality of islam , forever.

    • gravenimage says

      Jan 11, 2017 at 5:11 pm

      Oh, good grief–the idea that Muslims are violently targeting Britain and France is because they (supposedly) enabled Islam in India is just ridiculous. Muslims attack Infidels everywhere. There are other things wrong with this screed, such as the idea that France was in power in India at any time–but why bother?

    It’s funny how muslims never seem to have heard of God’s commandments isn’t it ?Especially the one that condemns murder(The Sixth Commandment)?Murder is clearly condemned by the True God(the GOD of Moses,Elijah,Jesus Christ,the God of the commandments….but “allah”/mahomet and his followers are OK with violating God’s Sixth Commandment.{sarc on}yeah, it’s a bit of a theological mystery that one isn’t it?{sarc off}Could it be that “allah” isn’t God and mahomet isn’t a true prophet?
    What prophet would ever encourage the breaking of God’s commandments??Not a true one.

    Try telling a muslim about that.
    Their warped misinterpretation of the original version of God which they call “allah” seems to have a really big problem understanding God’s commandments.The funny thing is that the koran even claims to know about Moses but for some reason completely missed the important bit about …obeying God’s Commandments.Certainly,their “prophet” lived his life in opposition to them.

    So once upon a time God revealed His Laws to the Jews via Moses and Jesus Christ later reaffirmed them.
    Then along came “allah”/mahomet and TOTALLY disagreed with GOD’s commandments in his koran..

    And…muslims don’t see the problem with that.It’s as if there are a herd of Elephants in the room of islam{islam is a religion of peace.mahomet was a prophet of God,islam is a tolerant creed..)and when you point this out to them they say “What’s an elephant?I don’t see anything.You are just being islamophobic and racist aren’t you?”.

    I think it is a huge tactical mistake to characterize this Gazan Imam an “extremist”. I would say he’s devout following the strict interpretation of the Quaran. How is his viewpoint different from any Saudi Mufti or Iranian Ayatollah? It’s one ad thx same. This is what the World misunderstands when they try to create a list of of good and bad without weighing the Religion degree factor

    Of the vicious and murderous truck jihad attack in the city of Jerusalem should thing need to be made clear. First, that jihad-minded Muslim was abiding to the instruction of the “holy book” of Islam, the Quran in that Islamic murder attack .For the Quran in Sura 9:111. instructs “The believers fight in Allah’s Cause, they slay and are slain, they kill and are killed.” Nevertheless, there are still some who have the ignorant gall to say that Islam is “a peaceful religion.” That’s a totally bogus statement if there ever was one. Second, The Quran teaches in Sura 47:4 “Whenever you encounter the unbelievers strike of their heads until you make a great slaughter among them…” Let’s face it using a truck as a weapon in the mowing down groups of people can sure make a greater “slaughter among them” than a sword can. Third, the Quran teaches in 9:123. “O you who believe ! Fight those of the disbelievers who are close to you, and let them find harshness in you…” The jihadist /Muslim who was engaging in that cruel vicious and brutal truck jihad attack in mangling, maiming and murdering people who the Quran classifies as “disbelievers” is an extremely effective way to showing those people harshness. “ This is Quranic based Islam not any kind of “hijacked “ or warped” Islam as the propagandists for this religion so falsely claim.

    To better explain that Jihad truck murder attack in Jerusalem is the following. Many times the jihadist members of different Islamic terror entities have gathered together and chanted the words “We love death, they love life.” Likewise those jihadist/Muslims don’t stop with those awful words; they carry through with jihad suicide/homicide attacks. Any sane person would ask “Why do those jihad –minded Muslims have such a mindset of murderous madness?” The answer is that they obtain the way of thinking and believing from the “holy book” of Islam, the Koran. As some people call it the Qu ‘ran. For example the Koran in Sura 9:111 instructs “The believers fight in Allah’s Cause, they slay and are slain, they kill and are killed.” Therefore it may be conclude that Islam is actually a death cult. In great and wonderful contrast to the death cult which is Islam there is Christianity which is centered on Jesus and His teachings. For Jesus did not teach killing and death but taught and gave life, a good peaceful well lived life and more. For example Jesus declared “I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” John 10:10. [K.J.V.]

  10. Walter Sieruk says

    Such jihadist vicious and murderous attacks , as that truck attack, against Jewish people with deadly and violent actions are sanctioned in the “holy book’ of Islam the Koran. Which instructs in violence and killing for the cause of Islam. As found in, for example, 4: 89. 5:33. 9:5,111,123. 47:4. In other words the Koran inspires and causes such hideous violence. Furthermore, another role the Koran has in such deadly Islamic terror attacks in the Jewish nation of Israel is that the Koran contains many negative about the Jewish people. The reason that the Koran reads as it does have much to do with the history of the founder and prophet of Islam, who is Muhammad. This is for a specific time period of his life Muhammad lived among many Jewish people and he liked them at first. Later then they would not accept his claim of being of prophet, Muhammad then took is dislike to them that then turned into bitterness and even hate for them. So in the hate and bitterness he spoke many derogatory things about the as even referring to them as “apes and swine.” Such word of bitterness and hate, along with other thing he said, where written down on things and then later after his death those words were together together and then eventually, in time went in the composition of the Koran. Therefore, that why the Koran reads and in does about the Jewish people, as in calling them descendants of “apes and swine.” As seen in the Koran in 2:65; 7:166.; 5:60. Furthermore, as a Christian I can keyboard that there is a chance the Muhammad actually might had been a prophet but the important thing to understand is that Muhammad was NOT a prophet send by God. Instead, Muhammad was a deceptive, lying false prophet send by Satan to lead many people astray and even and straight into hell. Jesus, in fact, had predicted and warned of the coming of such men as Muhammad. For Jesus taught “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.” Matthew 7:15. In addition, the Bible further warns that “many false prophets are gone out into the world.” First John 4:1. [K.J.V.]

    Gaza: Muslim cleric says Jerusalem truck attack permitted by Sharia
    …………………………..

    Of course it is. Islam is the religion of blood and death.

    “The extremist cleric asked why the Israelis, “who are so afraid of the killing of soldiers and settlers, continue to occupy our lands? They have no place here, they have no choice, except getting up and getting out of this holy land.””….

    Hey Imam…’Your land’?

    Judaism predates Islam, so shouldn’t it be the Muslims getting up and leaving?
