“Belligerent” because they are opposing the hegemony of Sharia, and hence are kuffar harbi, infidels at war with Islam.
“Islamic State Magazine Applauds Mass Executions of ‘Belligerent Christians’ in Philippines,” by Edwin Mora, Breitbart, June 9, 2017:
Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL) jihadists, in the most recent edition of their propaganda magazine Rumiyah, have reportedly released “unseen” pictures of “belligerent Christians” executed by the jihadist group in the Philippines.
“The soldiers of the Khilafah in East Asia stormed the city of Marawi in the southern Philippines on the island of Mindanao, chased out the local police and the military, and raised the banner of the Islamic State,” the jihadists wrote in the latest issue of Rumiyah, titled “The Jihad in East Asia.”
The new issue focuses on ISIS’s ongoing operations in the Christian-majority nation of the Philippines, where the terrorist group has been clashing with government forces, particularly in the country’s only “Islamic city” of Marawi.
In late May, Filipino jihadist groups loyal to ISIS, Abu Sayyaf and the Maute fighters, captured the city, and the government forces have been trying to liberate the Marawi since.
ISIS is trying to establish a caliphate in the city, burning cathedrals, taking Christian hostages, and killing civilians who were unable to quote scripture from the Quran.
In Rumiyah, the leader of ISIS’s East Asia branch incites Muslims to “teach the Crusaders that zero hour has arrived.”
“Our meeting will be at Washington and Moscow,” writes Rita Katz, the director of the SITE Intelligence Group that tracks jihadi groups online via Twitter:
ISIS “shows unseen picture of executions of ‘belligerent Christians’ by pointblank gunshot after sieging #Marawi,”…
ISIS released its latest issue of Rumiyah during Ramadan, considered the holiest month for Muslims and a time when Islamic extremists encourage martyrdom and jihad….
Donald R Laster Jr says
The Philippine government needs to understand they are fighting a war that is worse than that of WWII. They are going to have to exterminate the Islamic invaders to protect their country.
mortimer says
Donald, You are a great fool. Shame on you. I believe the government of Philippines has wiser advice then yours. They have considerable knowledge of this age-old problem. They are not invaders either. Seeing American military rifles in the hands of the Islamic rebels makes my blood boil.
Robert Spencer is correct, but, please note, a KAFIR HARBI (non-Muslim who militarily fights Islam) may forgiven, however, a VERBAL COUNTERJIHADIST such as myself and others who post hear, MAY NOT BE FORGIVEN, since Mohammed must be present to forgive me and he is DEAD.
This is one of the many ABSURDITIES OF ISLAM… a verbal critic of Islam must ALWAYS be executed and may NEVER be forgiven unless certifiably insane.
NO CRITICISM OF ISLAM is possible and is considered WORSE than militarily fighting Muslims.
Keys says
mortimer says: “Seeing American military rifles in the hands of the Islamic rebels makes my blood boil.”
Mine too.
How did they get these and from whom? Whoever supplied these (sorry non-violent mortimer – sometimes violence is necessary as a matter of preservation) must be stopped, possibly by annihilation. And these jihadists, and their havens, must be annihilated.
Deprogramming is not possible for some, and we have a duty to protect our loved ones and ourselves.
Oliver says
It is possible that the weapons came from any one of the following:
1. Weapons given by the Obama Administration to numerous terrorist groups in Syria (and probably Libya, and Iraq) and captured by ISIS and transferred.
2. Remnants of FAST & FURIOUS.
3. Taken from captured and/or Killed Filipino soldiers or police.
4. Bought on the black market.
5. Supplied by pieces of shit in the US who support ISIS
6. Any combination thereof.
Just guesses on my part.
Baucent says
The Muslim insurgency has been going on in the Philippines since the 1970’s. They have been armed with M16’s and other US equipment since then, taken in ambushes of Army units. That has continued to the present day and the Philippines in general is awash with guns.

……………………………………..
So you believe that allowing Jihadists to execute their victims right in Philippine cities is evidence of “wisdom”? In *what possible way*?
Philippine authorities are clearly overwhelmed by this Jihad conquest, and have so far been unable to take back the city or prevent the slaughter of their citizens there. One may sympathize with them–but lauding this as “wisdom” makes no sense.
More:
They are not invaders either.
……………………………………..
Muslims first invaded the Philippines from the Malay peninsula in the 14th century.
This *does not* mean they have the right to invade the rest of the Philippines and slaughter Infidels there.
Sovereign Man says
Unfortunately for Filipinos, their government is completely corrupt and inept. They have no chance of winning. The supreme court just ended the Martial Law condition imposed in Mindanao. Just like everywhere, fat, stupid, lazy, useless lawyers are destroying the country.
Nuio says
Europe and America need to take your sane advice.
Westman says
The Breitbart article gives the wrong impression of Marawi, which instead of being an “Islamic city”, is in fact an ISLAMIC CITY that is ruled by Sharia; only limited from lethal punishments by the greater Philippine Law. The city’s population rose from approx 55,000 in 1970 to 201,000 in 2015.
Take a moment to locate the regions Muslim Masjids and Christian churches on Google maps. The Marawi area is sometimes referred to as an autonomous region and is 99.6% Muslim.
ISIS and its ilk only take hold where Muslims are in the majority, complete with sympathizers, so the likelyhood of the (Christian) Philippine government stamping out jihad groups in the areas about lake Lanao is about zero. Expand the map and you’ll find the lake is ringed with masjids (mosques).
Living anywhere within this autonomous region, as a Christian, will be risky. A revival of Islam’s less peaceful aspects appears to be in progress. Autonomy for Shariah, while remaining limited by Philippine law, Democratic-Sharia, is an oxymoron. Expect more carnage.
Donald R Laster Jr says
Does not change the fact that the government there has to protect its people from invaders. All Islamics are invaders and they will march through the rest of the country unless stopped.
Westman says
I agree, that’s true, although just as in any city in America, the Federal Government is resented as an interferring outsider. Most of us remember troops being called out to enforce integration in the US. That doesn’t change the attitude of the locals.
And, are they really invaders? Where is the outcry from the 99.6% Muslims?
Donald R Laster Jr says
All Islamic are invaders. Islam is a theocracy and its citizens work to impose its rule on every one and thing. We have 1400 years of history to show how Islam operates. Mohammad did not convince people to follow him – he imposed himself and his government on people by force. And he killed those who did not want it. And that included those who caved but did not cave enough in his opinion.
gravenimage says
Very true, Westman–there is already Shari’ah law in Marawi. But as is always the case, there is not *enough* Shari’ah for truly pious Muslims.
I’m sure Philippine authorities assumed this appeasement would keep the country safe–instead, it just attracted Muslims to impose even stricter Shari’ah.
BC says
You are no doubt too young to know anything about the invasion of the Philippines by the Imperial Japanese army and the subsequent atrocities, including the massacres by the Japanese when the US forces had to fight house to house to drive the Japanese out of Manila or you would not make such an ignorant and foolish statement
Donald R Laster Jr says
I see you don’t like it when someone points out that what Islamics have done for the last 1400 years is worse than what people in the Philippines had to deal with in WW2. I know about what the Japanese did in WW2 and what Islamics have been doing for 1400 years and are doing now. You should learn some of the real history related to Islam, not their lies and deceptions.

Fascists and Muslims are both horrifically violent and oppressive. It’s not a contest.
TH says
They ought to do what the Spanish and American forces used to do when they caught and condemned jihadis, wrap the corpses in pig skin and thus deprive them of the 72 virgins. It worked
Richie says
The leftist answer is ‘that has nothing to do with islam’
PRCS says
Some of them know that’s a lie–and exploit its use.
Some of them don’t–and enable those who do.
Jerry says
Muslims are conducting a concerted and universal attack against non-muslims. The civilized world is at war with islamic jihad while our politicians and media lie and make excuses in defense of islam. There are exceptions, some brave souls that dare to speak the truth, but not many. It’s time everyone realize that what motivates these muslim killers against the above mentioned Christians is what motivates the muslims in our neighborhoods, too. It’s the same holy books, the same sharia, the same d*mn bigotry they’ve been living for 1400 years. It sickens me to think my home state of Minnesota is hosting the evil this fake religion teaches and provokes. I so wanted to attend that anti-sharia rally today but I couldn’t make it. I feel like I’ve let myself down and also the victims of islamic jihad by not being there. I’ll have to make up for it some how. I feel obligated to make a stand against any ideology that causes so much hatred and murder, as islam surely does. And if I don’t, then I am very much a part of that islamic problem. Shame on me.
P.s Thank you Act for America for organizing this noble event in St. Paul and around the nation. Your humanitarian efforts are needed and appreciated.
Jerry says
I’m proud of my fellow Minnesotans who made a stand today for humanitianism against islam’s immoral system of law against human rights. If a humanitarian god exists them I’m sure they are doing god’s work.

Correction: I meant to say, “…a stand for humanitarianism.”
Keys says
Thanks for the video Jerry.
Westman says
Here is the typical lie, when asked about Sharia in connection with ACT: “Sharia law is a body of Koran-based guidance that points Muslims toward living an Islamic life, Asifa Quraishi-Landes, an associate professor at the University of Wisconsin School of Law told the Washington Post. Sharia is not a book of statutes or judicial precedent imposed by a government, he said.”
How do we counter these credentialed liars?
In muslim countries Sharia IS an actual government that controls men and cheats women; in the West, particularly in Europe, it IS a shadow government that controls men and cheats women.
Donald R Laster Jr says
That is why people need to understand that Islam is a theocracy and Islamics are citizens of foreign State at war with the non-Islamics and that an Islamic can never have real fealty to, or be a loyal citizen of, a non-Islamic country.
Elizabeth Lawson says
This attack and murder of Christians in a Christian country, is sickening and an outrage. The uncivilized, barbarian psychopathic losers perpetrating these atrocities against a loving and decent citizenry, need to be exterminated for the disease that they are, and that they bring to every land that they occupy. There should be NO forgiveness for such brutality and lawlessness. Where did Arabs get the notion that anything they had to offer to the civilized worl was worth anything? Take a hard look at life in the Arab world, who would want to live under their primitive governance, and who would wish for a life governed by such primitive ideology. Extermination is too good for them.
Greyhound Fancier says
Elizabeth, I have wondered the same…the Arab world, particularly for women, is about the worst place to live.
Beyond poverty, ignorance, oppression, forced marriages, cruelty, and hopelessness, what exactly is attractive about the Arab world?
Islam is an Arab supremacists scam, with a “religion” attached. Why in the world persons all over the world would want to adopt Arab names, other than to ingratiate themselves with their Arab overlords?
For some reason, Middle Eastern mohammedan culture achieved some cachet amongst the literary set in the UK back in the 19th century, maybe further back. Combine that with anti-semitism, and the UK’s sympathies with the wrong side is now bearing bitter fruit.

I am sorry for you, but CNN says that those against Shariah Law, were a minority, and that the other group, those who were claiming,” I am with my Muslim neighbor,” were much, much many more.

“I am sorry for you, but CNN says that those against Shariah Law, were a minority, and that the other group, those who were claiming,” I am with my Muslim neighbor,” were much, much many more.”
Well that just goes to show how many misguided and foolish people we have in our society. A big part of the problem is our media and polititicians that feed the public with lies and misinformation about islam. Our own media in Mpls is the worst, always painting people like me as bigots for caring about the violence and pain islam causes. We’re always described as a “hate group” that can’t stand head scarves and dark skinned people. We couldn’t possibly be about human rights, so we’re lumped with the KKK and Neo-Nazis. Our media won’t touch the ugly facts about muslim’s violent religion with a ten foot pole, islam is pure as the driven snow to these dhimmis. Our politicians are no better, always reminding us that islam is about peace, and this is usually the day after a muslim has murdered innocents while screaming to their muslim god.
So CNN maybe was right, some cities probably did produce larger crowds in defence of islam’s inhumane sharia. But I suggest those protesters are misinformed about islam or have some other misguided reason for ignoring islam’s deadly facts. Maybe they have muslim friend or coworker they like and foolishly feel they are defending that friend by ignoring the murder and bigotry of islam. They are incapable of caring about people beyond their own sphere of existence, they don’t consider the larger picture and horrible suffering islam causes every day around the world. But I am not acting unreasonable by speaking against muslims’ ignorant and violent “religion.” I am not against muslims per se, I am against the ideology they live by. I know there are many “nice” muslims just like there were many nice Nazis during the war. But that doesn’t mean I’m going to like Nazism, and I’m not going to like a religion that teaches murder and bigotry for god, either. I have no doubt I’m on the right side of morality with this thing. And if a humanitarian god truly exists then I know it’s far more proud of me than it is of those that live by kill or enslave the infidel.

The United States Military should have been able to wipe Islam off the “GLOBE”, ONCE, but instead, Muslims were invited to Colonize America!
If they can capture a City in the Philippines, they can capture a City in America.

“Belligerent can mean “ready to fight.”
The arrogant moslum murderers see any resistance in a bad light, not allowing anyone the human, God-given right to resist their evil demands to convert to worship of satan via the wild beast of islum.
They are “having their reward in full” as far as eating and drinking and indulging their lusts.
One day soon, the faith of Christians will be rewarded. With lief.
The murderers and tormentors will be annihilated for their depraved, demonic devil worship.

I am heartened to see that an effort is being attempted to beat back the muslim invasion. At first I could hardly believe it’s happening. Regrettably, in my physical condition, all I can do is pray and encourage you all to keep strong.
My heart aches when I see all the churches, people and children who are being destroyed and murdered. I know it may not be much but you all really are in a lot of folks continual prayers. Thanks for the time you give of yourselves to G_d and His work. I sure hope that more folks will open their eyes.

Reporting some good news. To the extent this is an information war, ignoring for a moment getting steamrolled by Islamic immigration, we’re winning it. Read the following typical legacy media propaganda piece. Then scroll through the comments.

Years ago, the comments were far from solidly anti-sharia. But people get it now. This is Yahoo, not Breitbart or Jihad Watch.

Is it possible for Muslims to practice Islam….that is “true Islam” w/o Sharia?

Depends on which branch of the Islamic tree you regard as True Islam, I would think.

No.
Donald R Laster Jr says
The answer is no. Islam is theocracy (a government with its laws given by its god) and removing Shar’iah law would be the same as removing the US Constitution from the US. An Islamic would be renouncing their Islam citizenship/fealty if they renounced Shar’iah law.

…………………….
The city of Marawi actually imposes Shari’ah–but clearly not enough of it, as far as these pious Jihadists are concerned. After all, there are still Christian churches in the city, and Christians do not have to pay Jizya.
Anyone who has not completely submitted to Islam is deemed “belligerent” to Islam–no matter how peaceful they are.

Muslim extremists understand only one thing. Death.
Debi Brand says
Those in IS are those who most closely follow the traditions of the “beloved ‘Holy Prophet’” of the Muslims.
Thus, those with allegiance to IS are those who best portray and relate the matter—the hatred, the murder, the darkness—in the heart of whoever came up with the doctrine of Islam.
