He isn’t dismissing or discounting the death toll. He also said: “The biggest threat from terrorism and extremism is not only killing innocent people and spreading hate, but tarnishing the reputation of our religion and distorting our belief.”
Many Western analysts have an enormous amount of hope already invested in Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, thinking that he is going to bring about genuine Islamic reform. It remains to be seen, however, as he vows here to fight against the tarnishing of the reputation of his beloved religion, whether he means that he will fight against non-Muslims who dare to notice how Islamic jihadists use the texts and teachings of Islam to justify violence and terrorism, or whether he will really take the fight to the jihad terrorists themselves. We shall see.
“We will not allow terrorism to tarnish the image of Islam, says Saudi Crown Prince at IMCTC meeting,” Arab News, November 26, 2017:
RIYADH: Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, the Deputy Premier and Minister of Defense, opened here on Sunday the inaugural meeting of the Islamic Military Counter Terrorism Coalition (IMCTC) Ministers of Defense Council.
The event, which adopted the theme “Allied Against Terrorism”, was participated by defense ministers of the Islamic States Coalition, international delegations and official missions from supporting and friendly countries.
The crown prince particularly welcomed ministers of defense from the IMCTC – all 41 of them coming from Muslim countries – who attended the meeting, after which commemorative photos were taken to mark the official launch of a pan-Islamic, unified front to support the global fight against terrorism and violent extremism.
“The biggest danger of this terrorism and extremism is the tarnishing of the reputation of our beloved religion. … We will not allow this to happen,” said the crown prince. “Today we start the pursuit of terrorism and we see its defeat in many facets around, the world especially in Muslim countries. … We will continue to fight it until we see its defeat.”
“In past years, terrorism has been functioning in all of our countries… with no coordination” among them, he said in his keynote speech. “This ends today, with this alliance.”
The crown prince said the 40 countries were sending a “clear signal” that they would “work together to support the military, financial, intelligence and political efforts of every member state.”
He condemned the attack on an Egyptian mosque that killed more than 300 worshippers and said it would galvanize the Islamic military coalition.
“(The attack on a mosque in Egypt) was a very painful occurrence and must make us contemplate in an international and powerful way the role of this terrorism and extremism,” the Crown Prince said.
“The biggest threat from terrorism and extremism is not only killing innocent people and spreading hate, but tarnishing the reputation of our religion and distorting our belief,” the crown prince said in opening remarks….

Only a Western fool would believe that one man from Saudi Arabia (or even a few or many men) could reform Islam. To begin with the Saudi Royal family is loathed in the Arab world. They do not command respect in things Islamic other than that Mecca is physically located within Saudi borders. In fact, many Sunni organizations want to assassinate Salman and members of his family.

mortimer says
Half of a cheer. Muslim countries have discovered that JIHAD is inconvenient, so they are suppressing jihad on the grounds that jihad is BAD FOR THE IMAGE of Islam.
The real reason for suppressing jihad is that it is DESTABILIZING and siphons money away from investing in the economy to investing in military readiness and equipment needed to chase jihadists and suppress them throughout Muslim countries.
This is a case of Muslim rulers seeking ways to CONDEMN JIHAD while at the same time, sounding as if they truly care about ISLAM PER SE. The actions of these Islamic rulers will ENRAGE THE JIHADISTS EVEN MORE and they will double and triple their efforts to assassinate the ruling Arab families that crack down on JIHAD.
gravenimage says
Mortimer, note that the Saudi king is only taking issue with Jihad *against other Muslims*. He did’t have a word to say against an attack on a church, also in Egypt.
Jack Diamond says
Yes, the only reference to “terrorism” is an attack on a mosque. Then the mention of “killing innocent people” (notably Muslims not kaffirs). Attacks on the Coptic churches in Egypt rate no mention. Of course, there are no churches to attack in Saudi Arabia.
Also getting no mention, the prominent Saudi role in Islamic jihad terrorism, it’s direct support of al Qaeda (at the highest levels in the Kingdom), and THOSE attacks on innocent people Including 3,000 Americans.
The Saudis are only concerned with what threatens their survival and they have a lot to be concerned about right now. That’s what they mean by the defeat of terrorism.
Ren says
How can jihad be «BAD FOR THE IMAGE of Islam» if jihad is at the core of it?
Jack Diamond says
The image of Islam (aka “tarnishing the reputation of Islam”) he means is it’s image to the infidel world. This image has nothing to do with the reality of Islam, the image is the smokescreen, the dust in the eyes. Muslims know jihad is at the core of Islam, non-Muslims are not to know.
This image/reputation of Islam must be that which preserves it’s innocence from any wrongdoing; exonerates it from blame for terrorism and violence; presents Muslims as the victims of aggression and injustice and bigotry (not perpetrators) who are sometimes forced to act in “self-defense” (even from their own extremists twisting the religion for nefarious reasons); and puts forth an image of Islam as peaceful, tolerant, and respectful of other faiths. An image where shari’a is actually something benign and humane and terribly and unfairly misunderstood much as the benign concept of “jihad” has been “perverted” from the original, peaceful teachings of Muhammad.
For the image of Islam to become identified with the reality is very bad. The kaffirs might start to defend themselves.
gravenimage says
Exactly, Jack. And Muslims only care about this until they have the upper hand, and no longer care what Infidels think of Islam.
After all, no Muslim in the Islamic State is concerned about the few remaining Christians and Yezidis there having a critical view of Islam, just so long as they don’t dare say anything about it.
tim gallagher says
I agree with both of you, Ren and Jack Diamond. The “tarnishing” is the fact that the non-Muslim world is waking up to the evil of Islam. Muslims want to keep this bizarre, illogical set-up going where they keep slaughtering non-Muslims and yet have idiots in the west keep buying the lie that the murderous violence has nothing to do with Islam. You have to be such a fool to go on believing that lie. Off this topic, I would like to ask a question which I’m sure many Jihad Watch commenters will know the answer to. A few years back I saw an estimation of how many people had been slaughtered by Muslims in the horrible 1400 year history of Islam. I think it might have been around 230 million people. I recall that the death toll for India was 80 million. I can’t recall what the source of the information was. I’m sure the figures would be approximately correct. But I was wondering who has gathered the info, because if I was to quote the statistics to someone I’d like to be able to say what was the source of the information, ie who did the research into the death toll over the 1400 years of Islam. Does anyone know about this?
Jack Diamond says
Bill Warner at “Political Islam” has quoted a 270 million figure based on these estimates:
“Tears of Jihad”
Mar 3 2008 | by Bill Warner
106
These figures are a rough estimate of the death of non-Muslims by the political act of jihad.
Africa
Thomas Sowell [Thomas Sowell, Race and Culture, BasicBooks, 1994, p. 188] estimates that 11 million slaves were shipped across the Atlantic and 14 million were sent to the Islamic nations of North Africa and the Middle East. For every slave captured many others died. Estimates of this collateral damage vary. The renowned missionary David Livingstone estimated that for every slave who reached a plantation, five others were killed in the initial raid or died of illness and privation on the forced march.[Woman’s Presbyterian Board of Missions, David Livingstone, p. 62, 1888] Those who were left behind were the very young, the weak, the sick and the old. These soon died since the main providers had been killed or enslaved. So, for 25 million slaves delivered to the market, we have an estimated death of about 120 million people. Islam ran the wholesale slave trade in Africa.
120 million Africans
Christians
The number of Christians martyred by Islam is 9 million [David B. Barrett, Todd M. Johnson, World Christian Trends AD 30-AD 2200, William Carey Library, 2001, p. 230, table 4-10] . A rough estimate by Raphael Moore in History of Asia Minor is that another 50 million died in wars by jihad. So counting the million African Christians killed in the 20th century we have:
60 million Christians
Hindus
Koenard Elst in Negationism in India gives an estimate of 80 million Hindus killed in the total jihad against India. [Koenard Elst, Negationism in India, Voice of India, New Delhi, 2002, pg. 34.] The country of India today is only half the size of ancient India, due to jihad. The mountains near India are called the Hindu Kush, meaning the “funeral pyre of the Hindus.”
80 million Hindus
Buddhists
Buddhists do not keep up with the history of war. Keep in mind that in jihad only Christians and Jews were allowed to survive as dhimmis (servants to Islam) everyone else had to convert or die. Jihad killed the Buddhists in Turkey, Afghanistan, along the Silk Route, and in India. The total is roughly 10 million. [David B. Barrett, Todd M. Johnson, World Christian Trends AD 30-AD 2200, William Carey Library, 2001, p. 230, table 4-1.] 10 million Buddhists
Jews
Oddly enough there were not enough Jews killed in jihad to significantly affect the totals of the Great Annihilation. The jihad in Arabia was 100 percent effective, but the numbers were in the thousands, not millions. After that, the Jews submitted and became the dhimmis (servants and second class citizens) of Islam and did not have geographic political power.
This gives a rough estimate of 270 million killed by jihad.”
https://www.politicalislam.com/tears-of-jihad/
———————–
Actually the source for the 80 million in India was the historian K.S. Lal:
“Muslim conquests down to the 16th century , were for the Hindus a pure struggle of life and death. Entire cities were burnt down and populations massacred with hundreds of thousands killed in every campaign and similar numbers deported as slaves…the Bahmani sultans (1347-1480) made it a rule to kill 100,000 captives in a single day. According to Professor K.S. Lal the Indian population decreased by 80 million between 1000 & 1525. The term ‘crime against humanity’ is not exaggerated.”
–Konrad Elst “Negationism” 1992

Thank you very much for that information, Jack Diamond. Islam has produced an appalling record and continues to do so. When I mention these statistics, I will be able to back them up by referring to the people who’ve done the research from now on. Very useful information. Also, I agree with your comment, gravenimage, about how Muslims bleat and bleat and play the victim, all the time murdering non-Muslims, until they take over and then they are merciless towards non-Muslims. As you say,then they no longer care. Any tolerance and decency is all one way. Non-Muslims are pretty tolerant towards Muslims, but Muslims never behave decently towards non-Muslims as far as I can see. And why would it be any other way considering the endless hate for non-Muslims expressed in the Koran.

Great info Tim. Hope people in here in India read this, especially the so called secular’s and left liberals who praise the Mughal rule and the other Islamic invaders. As if they had the good of their Hindu subjects at heart!!!
tim gallagher says
Vajapeya, the credit for providing the info goes to Jack Diamond. I’d read the appalling death toll caused by Islam a few years back. I had the total wrong – I remembered it as 230 million, not the 270 million. But I couldn’t recall where the info had come from. I know I was stunned at the 80 million figure for India at the time I read it. From what you say, it sounds as if many Indians aren’t aware of the terrible death toll there. As you say, hopefully, some people in India will read the information Jack has provided here. The more people that wake up the better.
Chand says
Yes, heinous crimes have been committed by Muslims in the past. Many other races, practicing various religions also have committed heinous crimes in the past.
But are any Muslims alive today to be held responsible for crimes committed by their ancestors, in the name of their religion?
Likewise, will Britishers alive today be pronounced guilty for the crimes committed by their colonizing ancestors, for the sake of the British Empire?
Even if my own parents or siblings committed a crime I will not be arrested. No one is responsible for the actions of others and each individual human has to be judged separately.
Jack Diamond says
The British Empire is long gone. Jihad is alive and well, still engendering heinous crimes against humanity, still operating under the same immutable manual of war (Qur’an) and an obligation from Allah as it did in India, as against the Hindus and Buddhists, as against the Jews of Arabia, as against the Zoroastrians in Persia, as against the Christians of Byzantium and North Africa, Ad nauseam. The Muslims first invaded India (Sindh) only four years after they invaded Persia.
It’s Muslims who won’t let us consign it to the past because they can’t. The Qur’an and Sunnah of Muhammad makes that impossible. Everything in Islam, including those genocidal atrocities in India, come from the same source, then and now. The slaughters and subjugation, the attempt to obliterate all pre-Islamic culture and history
and Islamize (and Arabize) the conquered, the same story repeated again and again whenever the Muslims had the upper hand. As with everything in Islam, the Prophet sets the pattern
Talking about 270 million killed by Islam, simply because of their beliefs, or their non-belief about Allah and Muhammad; the countless millions who suffered under Islam as subjugated and humiliated dhimmis; the obliteration of the non-Islamic history and culture of entire peoples; to connect that to the human wreckage that is the Muslim World today, a backwardness that can be set at the foot of Islam, a culture of hate and violence, intolerance, misogyny that can be set at the foot of Islam; 32,000 jihad terrorist attacks since 9/11 alone; the invasion of Islamic supremacists (believing Muslims) into the West forming hostile, alien colonies…
Islam certainly has to be held accountable for all of this. Muslims admit to none of it. Every individual is only responsible, in a court of law, for their own actions. We don’t believe in collective guilt and punishment (unlike Muslims). But there is such a thing as complicity in the collective criminality of an ongoing death cult. There are good reasons for keeping such individuals out of our countries. For Islam is a collectivist ideology that is not remotely about individualism, but it is about war.

Even if he *does* bring about reform in Saudi Arabia–something I would certainly welcome, but do not really expect at this point–this would not be a reform *of Islam*.
It just would be a temporary easing of the enforcement of some aspects of Shari’ah law. This has happened many times throughout history. In fact, we saw a certain amount of liberalism in parts of the Muslim world from the 1950s until fairly recently. This did nothing to liberalize the interpretation of Islam itself. It just led to frantic calls from orthodox Muslims to enforce Islam with more ferocity.

Boy, Ibrahim, you sure do have a hankering for the word “evil.” This in and of itself shows your limits, though, no doubt, many more limits do you have.
You know, I have to wonder if anyone who disagrees with your take on religion could ever be described by you as anything but evil.
Yep, Ibrahim on religion is right and all those who disagree with Ibrahim on religion are evil. If you could provide evidence to the contrary, Ibrahim, then do so. Give me an example or two of a religion, a way of thinking religiously, that disagrees with your assessment of where the truth lies religiously without your describing such a “disagreement” as, you guessed it, evil.

I remain cautiously optimistic. It’s not unheard of for a Muslim monarch to be moderate and Westernized. He’s never going to criticize the Quran, but if Muslim monarchs didn’t have the power to strongarm the ulema and imams, the king and queen of Jordan wouldn’t exist.
That, not apostasy, is the best we can hope for from them. Combine it with banning Muslim immigration to Western countries and we’d be back to the good old days.

But now that people in the west are awakening to all of this, the tactic changes to one of peaceful islamic Saudi and therefore ANY westerner who challenges Islam or muslims must be Islamaphobic !!!!
They will be pushing the narrative, along with the muslim brotherhood operatives in our governments, that islamaphobia is rampant and unwarranted, for as we can all now see, Islam is really peaceful.
Their migrants hordes will continue to reap hell in western countries while these guys in Saudi tell us that the radicals are nothing to do with Islam.

Sorry Prince, but that train left the station a looooong time ago. Any sane person with two brain cells to rub together knows that Islam is the violent scourge of the earth and is currently waging an insane holy war against civilization itself, in a bloody attempt to drag the human race back 1400 years. The sole reason the rep of Islam is lower than a rattlesnake in a wagon rut is simple. Look no further than the behavior of the true believers themselves, who follow the whacked-out instructions in Islam’s holy books and the example of the mentally deranged, murderous, phony-baloney prophet Mohammad.
Prince, your religion is now officially an abomination, a holy mess, synonymous with terror, misogyny, mutilating little girls genitals, mass murder, suicide bombing, supremacy, rabid antisemitism, blasphemy laws, death to apostates, child brides, and billions of inbred, backwards, brainwashed, semi- literate, victim mongering savages; humorless hordes of turban wearing, bearded, wife beating men with ridiculously delicate egos and a ludicrously overblown sense of their own personal honor, with nothing to offer humanity except mindless violence and theological fascism, who riot and burn at the slightest real or imagined provocation, and burka-ed, veiled, hijab-clad, beaten down, submissive females with no human rights and chattel status, whose sole function is to do what they are told by men and churn out the little jihadis by the Wahhabi mosque full.

I do feel he is well meaning. However, Islam is Islam, a belief system and very hard to kill, and, unfortunately, there will always be those who will follow it to the letter.
