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

Sweden: Islamic State jihadi sets fire to Shia Islamic center

Mar 29, 2017 9:18 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

There is an ongoing tendency for the West – as a first reaction — to dismiss (or downplay) acts of jihad and to blame them on anything but jihad. This denial by Western authorities continues to buy time in destroying the West from within. At first, a fire set at an Islamic center in Sweden was dismissed as an act of arson, but upon further investigation, a Syrian Sunni Muslim affiliated with the Islamic State was charged with terror offences:

The purpose of the attack was to seriously intimidate a population group, in this case Shia Muslims, in the name of Isis… the man is a Sunni Muslim who has expressed dislike of Shia Muslims.

So now the Islamic world’s ancient antagonisms are beginning to be played out in the West.

“Malmö ‘Isis member’ accused of terrorism for fire at Islamic centre”, by Emma Lofgren, The Local, March 27, 2017:

A prosecutor has charged a Syrian man with terror offences, alleging that he started a fire at a Malmö community centre in order to spread fear in the name of Isis.

Nobody was injured in the fire at a community centre in Malmö owned by Shia Muslim organization Aldorr, but repair costs amounted to a million kronor ($113,000)

The 30-year-old suspect, who denies the charges and the allegations he is a member of Isis, is accused of throwing Molotov cocktails at the centre on October 11th last year, causing smoke damage to the building.

In December, Malmö’s district court judged in a remand hearing that, contrary to the chief prosecutor’s wishes, there was not enough evidence to consider the fire a terror incident and instead remanded him in custody on suspicion of arson.

But on Monday the prosecutor insisted that the man is affiliated with Isis and charged him with a “terror offence, alternatively arson”. The charge sheet, seen by The Local, argues that “this arson could seriously have harmed the state of Sweden. The purpose of the attack was to seriously intimidate a population group, in this case Shia Muslims, in the name of Isis,” adding that the man is a Sunni Muslim who has expressed dislike of Shia Muslims.

According to the charge sheet, police searching his computer found a description of how to make a detonator, which the prosecutor argues shows he has knowledge of how to make bombs. Police also found propaganda films showing Isis soldiers fighting and killing “infidels” and a picture of an Isis flag.

Prosecutor Agnetha Hilding Qvarnström said on Monday that the man had told other people he wanted to die “a martyr’s death”. This had emerged “in Facebook conversations, among other things”, she told The Local.

She said there was enough circumstantial evidence to build a strong case against the suspect.

“I think I have enough material to want the court to take a position on whether or not this classifies as a terror offence,” she said….

    This one photo says just how bad it gets for a neighborhood when moslims move in in droves and hordes.

    And if people were paying attention, which evidently they are not, this attack would show that it isn’t the fault of infidels that moslims can’t get along and must be killing and destroying or threatening to kill and destroy…even other moslims are not safe from this devil’s business and wild beast.

      “a Sunni Muslim who has expressed dislike of Shia Muslims…” Dislike? thought they considered each other as reprobates.

    Why are these Mozlems given the privilege to block the street so they can pray to their satanic god. Now the infidels have to wait to go about their business until these supremacists are done praying.

    Are any other group going to get the same preferential treatment?

    Look at this picture and what you see; this is todays Sweden. The people voted for fake politicians who transformed their country into a pro-muslim land. They deserve what they voted for.
    Another version of the Good Samaritan Story: the Good Samaritan helped a stranger who was robbed and beaten. He took him to an inn and on his way back the Good Samarian paid for all other expenses. But the stranger started to quarrel with the good man and started to physically abused him.
    This is what happens with helping these muslims to flood the western countries.

      On the other hand, Lily, the same thing has happened in the UK, with the police guarding them from traffic.

    This time its jihad-minded who are Sunni Muslims against Shi ‘ite Muslims and their Shi -ite center in the nation of Sweden. . Other times its Shi ‘ite jihad-minded Muslims actionout in violence against Sunni Muslims Both the followers of different branches of Islam hate each other. Nevertheless Muslim of those two of Islam both believe that the founder of their religion, Muhammad, was an actually prophet of God. Likewise , they both believe that their “holy book” the Qu ‘ran is the actual word of God .All this lead to the important subject that it’s a good thing to define what Islam really is .Of the many ways Islam may be described, one of them is that a religion of denial. Meaning that Islam denies that Jesus is the Son of God. As in the Son of God Who is God the Father. Furthermore, Islam denies the Jesus is God the Son. In addition, Islam denies that Jesus is God. Before going over these three denials of Islam it first should the stated the Bible instructs the way to tell if a prophet or religious teacher is really from and of God or not is do the teachings and doctrines of that prophet of teacher really fit in accord what is found in the Bible ? For if that prophet or teachers and teachers doctrines that are in contradiction to the Bible then that prophet is a false prophet and that religious teacher is a false teacher and thus in doctrinal error and darkness. Likewise if a religion had teachings and doctrines that are in contradiction that is religion is in error also part of the world of darkness and is therefore a false religion. As the Bible instructs in Isaiah 8:20. “To the law of the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.” [K.J.V.] With this clearly stated, three things should be known.
    First, that Islam denial that Jesus is the Son of God is in great contradiction to the teaching of the Bible . Which reveals the Jesus is the Son of God? As seen in ,for example Matthew 3:16,17. 16:15,16. Luke 1:35. John 3:16-18, 36. First John 2:22,23. 4:14,15. 5:12,13. Second, that Islam denies that Jesus is God the Son is in strong contradiction to the Bible. As found in Hebrews 1:6-8. With emphasis on verse 8. Third, Islam’s denial that Jesus is God is in great contrast to the doctrine and teaching of the Bible. That Jesus is God may be found in ,for example, John 1:1;3. Colossians 1:15-17. 2:9. Romans 9:5 Second Peter 1:1. Titus 2:13. First John 5:20. Moreover, to further discover that the Bible teachings that Jesus is God all a person has to do is to compare the Old Testament with New Testament to see that Jesus is God. As in comparing Isaiah 45:22,23. with Philippians 2:5-11. Also by comparing Psalm 89:8,9. with Mathew 8:23-27. will reveal that Jesus is God. Likewise, by comparing Psalm 62:5-7 . with First Corinthians 10:4. shows the Deity of Jesus. Even by comparing the News Testament books together will show that Jesus is God. As in comparing Romans 14:12. with John 5:22. will show Jesus to be God. The list can go on but this should be enough, for all who are willing to see the truth, that Jesus is, indeed, the Son of God. That Jesus is God the Son and that Jesus is God.
    The imams and mullahs as well as the other apologists for Islam will try to “explain’ this all away by making the claim that the Bible had been corrupted by Christians ,through time, and that’s way the Bible reads as it does. This claim, very much, underestimate the Power of God to protect and preserve His Word ,through time , and to keep in intact and away from the corruption of men. In conclusion, in light and information of the Bible in can be seen that Islam is a awful and terrible doctrinal error concerning it teaching about the Nature of Jesus and therefore Islam is part of the world of darkness. So Islam with its strong contradictions to the Bible is a false religion, Proverbs 14:12. So all Muslims be they peaceful non-ISIS members or the violent jihadist/ISIS members are thus invited to leave the false religion of Islam and come the and receive the Jesus of the Bible who is the only way to heaven ,John 14:6 and the True Light of the world. John 8:12.

    In addition to all this the is the Christian internet site which replies to the many claims made by the apologists for Islam. It’s http://www.answering-islam.org

    the issue is very simple. For decades we saw on television the barbarities that they did in Islamic societies and seemed far away, today we have let them come and continue to commit those same barbarities … but in our society. There is no moderate Islam, the facts are there.

    I wonder how the attack was originally portrayed in the Swedish press? As right-wing extremism?

    NEWS from Sweden.
    ================.

    Bizarre but true:

    Victoria Kawesa was elected party chairwoman of the Feminist Initiative (Fi). Her parents are from Uganda. So what about her?

    She demanded, and thus the “Feminist initiative” demanded, that foreign born criminals will no longer be deported, regardless of the crime committed. Reason: Swedish criminals don’t get deported either!

    By now 37% of the Swedish population, ranging from 0-44 years of age, are now of “foreign background”. If that continues as it has for the last 14 years, then the “foreign originated population group” will have the majority by 2034.

    The photo above in microcosm is why I often call Muslims “Buttlims.”

    My God, Muzzies can’t even pray with dignity. No, rather they pray with their asses (butts) in the air. And they look ridiculous doing so.

    Seems Buttlims can’t get anything right. Though they are good at ruining what others have built up, especially when helped by dhimmis aplenty, like many Swedes who are silly to the point of producing slow suicide of a nation.

    Mad world.

    If they were sacrificing their time and energy to at least pray to the true eternal Living God YHWH, but they are wasting their time and energy worshiping satan, because there is no such god as allah (Luke 4:5-8)

    They block the public streets, they fight among themselves, they rape and murder non-Muslims and yet they are “the greatest of people”, to whom we should submit and pay Islamic tax?

    How many things are wrong with this picture?

    The West seems hypnotized by this cruel and callow culture, we must awake from the spell that false religiosity casts on all of us. Our naivety, tolerance and basic decency are being exploited, just as a virus invades and finally destroys it’s host.

    Izlam is mental cancer, just as dangerous and just as implacable. Radical measures are required to resist and destroy it.

    It is not individual countries that are at risk, it is the entire civilized world.

      Davej, Indeed you are right.
      In India too these cultists block roads for their Friday prayers and the blaring from the loud speakers disturbs people and causes noise pollution.
      Moreover most of the times riots and other attrocities take place after these prayers as these “faithful” practitioners come out in hordes and feeling a sense of power indulge in violence.

      They are a cancer which has to be gouged out before it finishes off the host.

    Duhh for all those who aren’t honestly paying attention and/or falling into media and some Internet fake one-sided so-called news traps of shame games- WHICH HONESTLY “IS” FAKE, LIES, DECEPTIONS.

    Do u’r homework and then, only then, will U find the real truth, the whole truth- the honest truth.

    This sh** is real and they and only them, muslims, which aren’t united as so-called muslim people, unless its to kill the infidels, are really what is called different clans/tribes etc, and hate each other- they themselves are the problem to each other as muslims.

    Once again reality, which no one wants to tell the whole truth about the people from the middle east but if truth is what U honestly want there are many books by some very great brave people of this culture/label of muslims that tell the whole truth about their lives in this culture and/or being a female under sharia, and this word “clans” which is what the middle east truly is all about and the hate and distrust they have of each other of different muslim clans. So in reality this word “muslim” is nothing but a label about where their from and that’s about it.

    These people do not respect and/or like each other regardless of their so-called faith belief and/or muslim label.

    So in reality- Being a muslim IS NOT a “religion” but a word like we call ourselves Americans, or Italians in Italy, or Chinese in China, etc etc etc… So everyone needs to get off this word- muslim- as a so-called religion excuse- its not, its just a culture of people that pretty much hate each other but are muslims and their only goal is to dominate and/or control each other – which seems to be their only goal believing one is better than another – and that’s the real truth in a nut shell!

    “Islamic State jihadi sets fire to Shia Islamic center”

    This can not be Islam related as a religion of peace. This sounds like the result of anger for Trump election by Russian manipulation of American election results.

    Yes I am a liberal.

    As I believe that Islam is the kingdom represented by the legs and feet of the statue in Daniel (The legs of iron signified the 500 year brutal reign of Islam, ending in 1924; the feet of mixed clay and iron signify the iron of brutality and the clay of division that has existed in Islam as the re-forming of the Islamic Caliphate is in progress), this inner division that Islam has acquired from the influence of the divisive Arab mindset is what will keep the coming Mahdi of Islam (the Islamic Antichrist) from being the world dictator that many expect.

    Muslims will even be likely to be infighting when they are defeated by Christ at the end of the tribulation.

    It helps on this end to know the eventual end of Islam, which will be utter destruction and devastation..

      Lee, Islam has been around for longer than you think–1400 years now.
