And he called for the “formation of a special division to liberate Jerusalem were the decision to be implemented.”
It’s interesting how Western policy analysts routinely and universally treat the Israeli- “Palestinian” conflict as if it were a matter of land and could be settled by negotiations, while Muslim spokesmen worldwide routinely and universally treat it as an Islamic matter. Mainstream Western analysts, every last one of them, completely discounts the role of Islam when evaluating this conflict. Yet it is central.
Al-Sadr and many others are trying to make this move of the embassy into a showdown. They are trying to make President Trump back down, which would set an extremely damaging precedent. Many of the same mainstream Western analysts will insist that he must back down, precisely so as to avoid the showdown that the Muslim leaders are trying to stir up. It is likely that they are just blustering. But if the administration backs down and the showdown is averted, those analysts would be kidding themselves if they didn’t realize that it is coming sooner or later anyway.
“Moving US embassy in Israel will be declaration of war on Islam, says cleric,” AFP, January 24, 2017:
Moving the US embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem would be a declaration of war on Islam, influential Iraqi cleric Moqtada al-Sadr said on Tuesday.
In a break with previous administrations, new US President Donald Trump has pledged to recognise Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and relocate the US embassy there from Tel Aviv.
Sadr, a firebrand Shiite cleric whose militia once fought US occupation forces in Iraq, called for the “formation of a special division to liberate Jerusalem were the decision to be implemented.”
Sadr said the Cairo-based Arab League as well as the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, the world’s main pan-Islamic body, should take a decisive stand on the issue or dissolve themselves.
The Najaf-based cleric also called “for the immediate closure of the US embassy in Iraq” should Washington go ahead with its promised embassy transfer in Israel….

ElderlyZionist says
Go right ahead, Mr. Al-Sadr. Drop trousers, bend over, spead ’em and OPEN THE GATES OF HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Islam declared war on the world 1400 years ago. The world has every right to defend itself!

exactly
Gary says
Precisely! What’s his point? Islam can declare war on the world, yet expect no resistance?
He’s in for a real disappointment……
There’s a new sheriff in town!!

toehead2017 says
Hope an change has balls too.
occupant 9 says
The “cleric’s” point is that we’re not supposed to KNOW that Islam declared war on everyone 1400 years ago; we’re just supposed to lose, any way we can.
Just to prove how vile the Sharia is, let’s propose a reverse Sharia for Muhammadans. They should have no problem with it as they tell us we’ll have no problem with them implementing Sharia upon us.
Peggy says
Right. Moving the embassy to Jerusalem is a declaration of war but them announcing that Islam will dominate the world and killing us all over the world is a declaration of peace?
They have declared the war already and are waging it so what are we waiting for?
EmHotep says
Dear Lord, So let it be ! The ONLY way to defeat islam is the big WAR. We are ready and waiting for your command.
Carolyne says
UH….In what form will that command be? Cloud formations? A voice from the sky? A TV program? I suggest we do not wait for a supernatural voice to “Command” us. I suggest we take care of ourselves when the time comes. We will know it.
Don McKellar says
Whoopdie doo. What kind of threat is that? Islam is ALREADY at war with us. Either a hot war with murdering jihadis or a covert war or a proxy war or a cold war — depending upon which group of moslems we’re talking about.
Obviously this retarded moslem doesn’t realize that he his no longer dealing with Barry O any more! The moslem world is about to get thumped by the Trump.

Thank God we have people who feel as ‘Charles’ (above) does …Better we fight and lose than give in to the alternative …….
SpiritOf1683 says
Its because they’re too thick to realise that it’s not about land but about Islam and its desire to reign supreme.

We will not lose….
Diane Harvey says
I realized long ago that the Islam-or-else showdown was inevitable. Better sooner than later. Either way the medicine will not be pleasant; but unless the medicine is taken, the problem will only worsen. And even if the medicine is not taken today, in the end, a showdown is still coming.
“[I]f you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.”

Fear is a reason in and of itself to move the embassy to Jerusalem. Females don’t understand this. Move into the heart of fear to dismantle terrorism. Never allow fear to sway you from what is right. This is how to defeat them.

The US Embassy is moving to Jerusalem…as planned and declared. It’s time to start driving the islamic back into its hole between Mecca & Medina.
islam must perish so the rest of US can live decent and productive lives without the madness of submission to the evil face of evil…islam.
Carolyne says
It seems to me that a country, let’s say Israel, has the right to determine which city will be designated as its capital city And its nobody’s business but their own.
Deidre says
I believe the US under Barak al-Husseini/Bush gave this particular Islamofascist an over 100 billion dollar army. Beginning with the lump-sum 28 billion in weapons, to both create and fight IS.

“Occupation forces”? Whoa, biased much?…
Westman says
One thing of which we can be assured: this zakat-absorber will not be dying in any such, “war”. I seem to remember he was paid to stay out of a former conflict and continue his, “Islamic Studies”.
The US should make the move immediately. Other countries will follow.
john spielman says
how many times can islam declare war upon us?
it seems every turn we make, or decision we contemplate, islam is declaring WAR UPON US!
gravenimage says
Hilarious and spot on, John.
Peggy says
There’s never been a ceasefire for them to declare war. We’ve been at war with them all along, just didn’t know it.
Achmed says
If that constitutes declaring war on mohammedanism .. Will we be finally able to wage war? No rules of engagement … just true war .. scorched earth?
Wellington says
Move it since it will have a clarification effect in more than one way, those being unstinting support of Israel and further evidence of just how much the Muslim world is an enemy of all the West, and most especially the Little Satan (Israel) and the Great Satan (America). Do it soon like, President Trump. Like yesterday.
mortimer says
There is actually no ARGUMENT from the Muslim side against Jerusalem being the capital. The Koran actually COMMANDS ‘children of Israel’ to ‘dwell in the Land’ … i.e. the Land of Israel. Since Allah commands Jews to live in Israel … their assigned land … Muslim should support the Jewish homeland in OBEDIENCE TO ALLAH in his eternal message of the Koran.
Case closed.
Gene says
So, Islam has been at war with the non-Muslim world for 1400 years. Move the embassy to Jerusalem already!
dumbledoresarmy says
YES.
Dear American jihadwatchers – all of you – tweet Trump. Ring, emali, write. “Move the embassy. NOW”.
This is a test of wills.
If he backs down on this, the battle is lost before it begins.
he must NOT back down.
He has to stare right back at them and… move the embassy, to Jerusalem.
“This year in Jerusalem!”
And the best thing that could then happen would be for *every other* free and semi-free non-Muslim nation – beginning with countries like Australia, Canada, NZ, the Pacific Christian island nations, and also, India – to *also*, en masse, move their embassies, in Israel, to Jerusalem. All at the same time.
Flags flying all in a row. And … start voting en bloc as “The Camp of the Free”. With Israel and with each other, against the damn bloody Jihad. Put the Islamintern on notice that we’re NOT going to Submit.
Peggy says
I don’t think he will back down. What I think he will do is declare war and move to the US as a refugee and live in safety. Oh, wait Obama’s gone and Trump won’t have him.
I know, he’ll move to Europe.

Dear readers
Muslims do NOT need any excuse to Plunder, Rape, Riot, Terrorise, Conquer and Enslave none Muslims beyond the reality that we none Muslims exist. I am talking about 80% of current humanity comprising Christians Buddhists Hindus Atheists Pagans Jews and others.
The fact that we KUFFAR /Infidels exist is enough reason for Muslims to be enraged
Considering the historical Fact and Reality that Muslims have been at WAR with none Muslims starting with their depraved mentor Muhammad 1400 years ago and continuing, al Sadr’s threats are meaningless and unnecessary
Muslims (Arabs and others) are so much out of touch with reality that they are not able to read the crystal clear writing on the wall: That Brexit, Trump and the fall of most of the European governments this year and next are because of Islamic TERROR and the Muslim INVASION of Europe
We the Kuffar/ Infidels from USA Russia China India Europe and others when we shall unite and coordinate our incredible military and economic powers, Muslims will not stand a chance ever again threatening us without cataclysmic repercussions to themselves.
Has any American, European or Israeli ever debated an Imam on prime time TV regarding Jerusalem or the Mythical Palestinians?
WHY NOT?
Any knowledgeable person on these matters can literally OBLITERATE any arguments put forth by any Muslim on Earth and can utterly demolish the Muslim’s none existent references if any
Hamas, Hezbollah, PLO, PA and all other terrorist organizations have been and continue to threaten Infidels/ Kuffar/ none Muslims with either SUBMISSION to Sharia or EXTERMINATION. So how could their riots be any LESS dangerous?
The tide against Islam all over the world is turning and there will be extremely ugly events in the near future when Europeans and other peoples around the world will decide they have had enough of Islamic Terror, Threats and Intolerance and retaliate
This NOT a matter of IF. This is only a matter of time counting in the months to come

The saying that it will be a Declaration of War on Islam is getting old. I think it was even used regarding Balfour by the Saudis. It was used with the Declaration of Independence in 1948. It was used when we liberated the Temple Mount, Mount of Olives, Cave of the Patriarchs, Josephs Tomb, etc. The fact that We Live on the Land that Belongs to Us is cause to utter that Declaration and Muslim Islamists can actually find ignorant College Boys and Girls, Professors, Leftists to pretend that 3000 years of history, archaeology Religious Liturgy is all made up and planted by the Jews. They actually didn’t need to work up a sweat to persuade UNESCO to go along with this made up charade of Academia Countries like France who pretend to be working as a neutral Party trying to help us in Israel. It makes any honest person want throw up on you, Francois Hollande, Federica Mogerini, Fmr PM Cameron, Ms Day, Charles, Angela Merkel, and Special NO THANKS to Barack Hussein Obama
Shaz Stein says
The true reason that they don’t want the embassy moved to Jerusalem is OBVIOUS: If it is in Jerusalem, THE WORLD will FINALLY see that the “Palestinian” oppression, the apartheid and especially the genocide are ALL lies & blatant PROPAGANDA! They won’t get away with convincing the STUPID, Anti-Semitic, so-called “Christians” and “liberals” that they are actually struggling. Yeah, RIGHT! It must be such a struggle to get FREE housing, medical care [since no “Palestinian” hospital or construction architect exists] & free utilities. Everything is shipped into Gaza by the people pleasing Israelis, since the only things these inhuman losers can produce is babies that will eventually used as suicide bombers! Sick!!!
The US Embassy in Jerusalem may finally end the success of Islamic propaganda. THAT is their fear — once their lies [which are OBVIOUS to non-brain atrophied persons of every religion] are exposed, they will lose the support that they get from the INCREDIBLY STUPID people of Earth who would rather sympathize with people who CELEBRATED after 9/11 & cheer every time an American, European or Australian is murdered by an Islamic piece of filth than acknowledge the basicright of Jewish people to exist on Earth IN PEACE. Amen! ??

This threat is just another term for *extortion.*
He and others who have made the same threat are attempting to extort a capitulation to their unending demands.
Extortion (once known legally as blackmail) is violence or the threat of violence *unless* demands for money, property, or control are met and given over to the one(s) making the threat by the one being threatened.
Extortion is a crime. When one pays or capitulates to the demands made, it is encouragement for the extortion to continue.
davej says
Extortion is blasphemy to me, I’m deeply offended.
dumbledoresarmy says
Yes.
Please make exactly that same point in a Tweet to President Trump. And to his team.
Follow up with a short handwritten or typed note, direct to the white house.
Trump must NOT back down. He must defy the mohammedan extortionists.
somehistory says
dda,
I don’t tweet. If others do, they can make the point to him and his advisors.
moslims are a mob and they extort just like the mob everyone knows is a mob, but because they call their mob a religion, they get by with committing a whole lot of crimes…enough to fill all the court dockets for years to come.

Under the Trump era, Israel should take back the Gaza strip n make it wholesome again. This will drive Hamas out n make the area peaceful again. And also end all pestering talk of the 2-states solution. Gaza had been a thorn at the side of Israel.

Moving the US embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem would be a declaration of war on Islam, influential Iraqi cleric Moqtada al-Sadr said on Tuesday.. What about Islam declaring war on non-believers and infidels in America??? Just another statement from a horrible human misfit. Muslims must be removed from the Holy American soil. Their feet should not be allowed to touch our Holy land. Please Mr. Trump, follow through with your promise. The American people must remove this disgusting filth from our soil. God Bless Trump.
eagle says
Thank you for the comment. I sent this letter to Washington; https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact#page
This idea came from Troybeam, We can thank Troybeam for the possible solution to this disgusting take-over of our country.
A very good solution to the Muslim -Islam population taking over the United States Government through population and politics.
It has been brought to my attention that the Muslim Ideology is a theocracy. Some fuel for thought is we can define Islam as a theocracy. The United States government could change the status of Islam from religion to what it is a theocracy. Legally our nation can have every Mosques, school and compound torn down. Not having religious status would eliminate Islam’s religious exemption status. How to proceed : Our Constitution: the law of the land, article 6, No other government to operate within our nation aka sharia law, a Muslim only legal system that segregates itself from all other people with a complete chapter on non Muslims in an Islamic state/ Reliance of the Traveller: Islamic
Sacred Law..aka sharia law Chapter o11.0 titled Non Muslim Subjects of the Islamic State (AHL AL- DHIMMA) page 607 to 609./ then we have our immigration laws on the books to be enforced, we have the means to remove Islam without resorting to a Muslim List and seriously people we need to do just that. Also for every Mosque built it becomes an Islamic state operates sharia law and demands its followers to follow sharia. Now think of how many Mosques have been built since 9/11. Should any one of you decide to read the Quran and discover the threat we have to the American people and the core beliefs of this country would be a blessing and a service to all non-Muslim Americans. The American people need this protection. I urge President Trump and all of congress to support this possible solution. This Muslim theocracy is a very real threat to the American people. You only have to look to Europe, France and Germany to see what happens when the Muslim population reaches critical mass. Please consider legislation to this end. God Bless America and President Donald J. Trump.
Troybeam has the solution and has it right.
davej says
The dimwitted hotheads of Islam don’t seem to realize you can’t be constantly “declaring war”, it starts to lose it’s dramatic impact. They declared war against us in Mohammed’s day and never rescinded it. Now it is like crying wolf every single day, except that the criers actually are wolves.
DFD says
Weird. Islam is at war with the world since the quran was fabricated by that desert guy, and now we are supposed to be worried that we may declare war on Islam.
Logic does not seem to be this guys forte.

Ok. Let’s do another crusade and this time don’t make prisoners. Because making prisoners and let them get away with their Islam BS was the reason the mess grew again.
Islam declared war on all infidels 1400 years ago. So how can he declare it again? Makes no sense. What an idiot!
Islam is a death, war and pedophile cult. Nobody needs that!
JIMJFOX says
The Jerusalem Embassy Act of 1995[1] is a public law of the United States passed by the 104th Congress on October 23, 1995. It was passed for the purposes of initiating and funding the relocation of the Embassy of the United States in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, no later than May 31, 1999, and attempted to withhold 50 percent of the funds appropriated to the State Department specifically for “Acquisition and Maintenance of Buildings Abroad” as allocated in fiscal year 1999 until the United States Embassy in Jerusalem had officially opened.[2] The act also called for Jerusalem to remain an undivided city and for it to be recognized as the capital of the State of Israel. Israel’s declared capital is Jerusalem, but this is not internationally recognized, pending final status talks in the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. The United States has withheld recognition of the city as Israel’s capital. The proposed law was adopted by the Senate (93–5),[3] and the House (374–37).[4]
Since passage, the law has never been implemented, because of opposition from Presidents Clinton, Bush, and Obama, who view it as a Congressional infringement on the executive branch’s constitutional authority over foreign policy; they have consistently claimed the presidential waiver on national security interests.
I understand land was allocated many years ago for the Embassy. Then along came the UIFI / spineless trio who refused to build it…
Baucent says
Hot air from the Islamists. They may stir up some stone throwers in Israel but the muslim world is powerless to stop the shift of the US Embassy to Jerusalem.

There was an event in the 1800’s of our nation’s history, when the Bey of Tripoli thought he could threaten a young USA and get away with it, after all, he had scared the he– out of European powers successfully. Within a short period of time, Tripoli saw a U.S. Navy fleet at its front door, followed by U.S. Marines landing to further interpret our President’s intentions about Tripoli and the Barbary Coast.pirates.
The Barbary pirates and their Bey got the message loud and clear.
Ghadaffi of Libya was sent a message and decided to behave. Al Sadr needs a touch of reality and since he is known to sleep at different addresses each night, they all should be bombed simultaneously, if possible. This SOB gives ISIL its marching orders and all those inhuman, barbarous, crimes are sanctioned by him. Saddam Hussein was mild next to this rotten snake! .
Larry says
The US should have shot al Sadr 15 years ago when he was leading and directing terrorist operations in Iraq, instead of making him a major political figure.
