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

“Allahu akbar!”: Islamic call to prayer sounds at #IAmAMuslimToo rally in Times Square

(Thanks to Jason Stern for the video).

Little do these enlightened Leftists know that this cry of “Allahu akbar” could one day be turned upon them, with no hint of gratitude for their previous service.

Media outlets routinely mangle the true meaning of “Allahu akbar,” the ubiquitous battle cry of Islamic jihadists as they commit mass murder.

The war-cry is mistranslated in the Western media as “God is great.” But the actual meaning is “Allah is greater,” meaning Allah Is Greater Than Your God or Government.

It is the aggressive declaration that Allah and Islam are dominant over every other form of government, religion, law or ethic, which is why Islamic jihadists in the midst of killing infidels so often shout it.

One primary purpose of shouting is to “strike terror in the hearts of the enemies of Allah.”

Chief 9/11 hijacker Mohamed Atta made this explicit in his letter to himself before carrying out his jihad mission: “When the confrontation begins, strike like champions who do not want to go back to this world. Shout, ‘Allahu Akbar,’ because this strikes fear in the hearts of the non-believers.” This is why the Fort Hood jihad killer, Nidal Malik Hasan, shouted it as he shot thirteen Americans in November 2009, and why so many other jihadis have used it essentially as an announcement that non-Muslims are about to die.

But it is also frequently used when no infidels are within earshot. According to Islam, Allah is sovereign and dominant over all things, and controls everything. His control is so absolute he decides if unbelievers reject Islam, according to the Qur’an.“If we had willed, We could have given every soul its guidance,” but instead, “I will surely fill Hell with jinn and people all together.” (32:13)

    What a nightmare. Look at the participants – like blind sheep being led to the slaughter. I can’t imagine that even half of the people there truly understand what they are representing.

    How will they feel when someone says “Allahu akbar”while pointing a gun in their face?

    Gross

      Katnis, there is no understanding self destruction !!! Never mind the gun to their head, just imagine when one of the savages begins to saw off their brainless heads…. Just hope they are first and not our families.

        A Harris USA , …you are exactly right ! These idiots won’t realize their own stupidity until it is too late . They exhibit their ignorance of Islam and world history and are deliberately helping enemies of the USA . I only hope more Americans wake up and learn the real threat that Islam poses to our Country .

      What about before, in the middle, and at the end of raping you? A blood-soaked knife at your throat, a rope around your neck, Open your eyes and ears, take notice of what is happening slowly but stealthily around you. islam is just like a lethal and deadly cancer eating away at your body and soul. Next are the multiple times per day, 24 x 7, 364 per year with their call to prayer, a prayer which includes commands to kill you etc.

    Every single time a Muslim screeches “Allahu Akhbar” (a sound much worse than someone’s fingernails going down the side of a chalkboard), a crime against humanity is committed.

    President Trump should sign a bill making it a felony to screech “Allahu Akhbar.”

      Why ! Because you know if he does they will sight hate speech. He will be called a bigot, nazi etc. Islamaphobe.

    • Lioness says

      Feb 22, 2017 at 8:25 pm

      Abad, this is brilliant and I completely agree with you. Allahu akbar is the pinnacle of hate speech and represents crime against humanity.

    Shouting that in public should be considered hate speech. So many people heard those words before they were brutally murdered in so many different countries all over the world. This makes me so sad for all the victims who heard that shouted, then were killed. This is sick.

    We need to get off oil through the use of small modular reactors, and advanced ones at that. Then….. The American President could point out that Medina was once Multicultural, and …. will be again.

    Islam in Times Square, aided by clueless dhimmis.

    Well, why not? Islam ultimately demands every square mile of real estate on earth, you know, the dar-al-Islam versus the dar-al-harb shit, and so why not Manhattan, and why not dhimmis aplenty (e.g., the current Pontifex Maximus, never mind the standard leftist fool in Manhattan) aiding Islam in this “noble” quest?

    Here’s what is really depressing in all this: You would think after the totalitarianism which is Nazism, which took millions of lives to defeat, and the totalitarianism which is Marxism, which took millions of lives to defeat (and it’s still really not defeated yet), mankind would be only too aware of the oldest totalitarian ideology of all, Islam. which has claimed, conservatively speaking, at least 270 million lives in the name of Mo and his hand puppet, Allah, and so would guard against its spread. But mankind, and most especially the West, remain in total clueless mode (and for you specifically, Christianblood, neither have the Russians, and most recently under that control-freak and Islamic apologist, Putin).

    Can’t make this up. Who could? Ah, man seldom learns. Every Muslim, every Western Leftist, every RINO (e.g., John McCain), et al., serve as partial evidence of this sad, very sad and tragic, lethal truth.

    And what a photo above. Rather proves my overall point I would contend. Yes, many times a picture (photo) is indeed worth a thousand words.

    Video illustration of the verses in Revelation 13…people getting the mark …of the beast with blasphemous names…on their foreheads and upon their hands. Everyone there should be aware of what happens to all those getting the mark of this foul, loathsome and evil beast from satan.

    Also proudly posting her attendance at the rally, Chelsea Clinton tweeted that she brought along her two-year-old daughter, Charlotte, in order that her daughter might experience her first protest.

    http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2017/02/chelsea-clinton-joins-anti-trump-muslim-protest-nyc-photos-video/

    The Clintons simply with not go away and, four years from now, Charlotte will be old enough to be married by a Muslim. One wonders if Chelsea would support an I-am-a-Muslim rally under the same circumstances as those experienced by Aisha.

    The unholy alliance invites an important question for Leftist:

    “HOW DO YOU INTEND TO DISMOUNT THE ISLAMIC TIGER YOU ARE RIDING TO YOUR DESTINATION?”

      yup- it boggles the mind to hear that “call to prayer” in new York.

      i wont forget what Islam inspired that day and continue to inspire.

    i wonder if allah is truly satan…makes sense…

    that prayer chant even sounds evil
    hardly beautiful like obama said

    Shoots to the fore, “….and when it was the day of conquest….

    ……………….

    “…the Prophet … proclaimed takbir. The Muslims responded, and returned the takbir until Mecca shook with the takbir….” (Waqidi.)

    Since we can’t ship this trash out of the country let’s hope Trump can stem the flow. The more of these deranged people in our midst the more danger we all are in. I sincerely hope I die before I have to hear the call to prayer, Obama;s favorite melody.

  14. Paul says

    Feb 21, 2017 at 5:58 am

    These are more or less the same people who criticised the Trumps
    for reciting Christian prayers at a rally. They are sick reprobates who are
    only to happy to be manipulated by the forces of darkness that will devour
    them. There is no saving them now. Everyone else must prioritise their own
    well being and help other like minded people. Everything else is a waste of
    time.

    The infant-swaddled Sarsour used the term “sistas” throughout…bizarre. I noticed the swaddled muslim female behind her did not cheer – she must be living the truth of islamic tyrrany. How any freedm-loving American can embrace the “I am Muslim too” ideology is a mockery of those who fought and died to establish and preserve life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. What these left-wingers don’t understand is that by embracing islamic ideology they are embracing those same right-wing ideologies they detest, such as anti-gay and civil rights, and separation of church and state.

  17. Musalmaanmasala says

    Feb 21, 2017 at 10:24 am

    I wish so many of these “enlightened” people would fill Churches in the same way as they are supporting a killing cult ready to take them down the moment they get the opportunity,
    Surprising that after incidents of killing in the name of allah and Mohammed all over the world every day, these fools actually support muslims and their regressive cult which is called a religion.

  18. Geppetto says

    Feb 21, 2017 at 1:15 pm

    “We all belong here” You can shout it and proclaim it from every rooftop but that, in no way, makes it so. Fact is you don’t belong here, Americans, who are aware of the threat you and yours represent, don’t want you here and, eventually, you will either assimilate or go back to the Islamic hell hole from which you came.

    Feb 21, 2017 at 2:39 pm

    THE MORE I HEAR FROM ‘ENLIGHTENED’ LEFTISTS THE MORE I RECOGNISE THEM FOR THE ‘USEFUL IDIOTS’ THEY ARE IN THEIR SUPPORT OF ISLAM. IGNORING OF COURSE THEY ARE SUPPORTING A SUPREMACIST SYSTEM THAT NOT ONLY DOES NOT TOLERATE OTHER BELIEF SYSTEMS BUT ACTIVELY PERSECUTES THEM WITH THE GOAL OF MAKING ISLAM THE ONLY WORLD RELIGION.

    TRUTH, FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND EQUALITY ARE THE FIRST VICTIMS OF ISLAM. THE LEFT SEEM TO LIVE IN A WORLD OF DENIAL WHERE FACTS ARE A POOR SECOND TO POLITICAL CORRECTNESS.

    They took down the twin towers on 9/11, now they will take down NY city. We need a revolution.
