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

Paris jihad mass murderer: “Allah guided me and chose me among his servants to open his path”

Apr 24, 2018 10:00 am By Robert Spencer

“‘Allah guided me and chose me among his servants to open his path. It is for that reason that I had to fight the enemies of Allah with all my strength.’ He added that his brother Brahim, who blew himself up during the Paris attacks, ‘did not commit suicide — he is a hero of Islam.'”

A hero of what? Doesn’t Abdeslam know that authentic Islam and the proper understanding of the Qur’an have nothing to do with violence? Surely Pope Francis is on his way to Belgium right now to straighten this young man out about his peaceful faith.

“Paris attacks suspect gets 20-year sentence in Brussels trial,” MENAFN, April 23, 2018 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

A Belgian court on Monday found Salah Abdeslam, the last surviving suspect in the Paris attacks, guilty of terrorism-related attempted murder over a shootout with police in Brussels days before his capture in 2016, and sentenced him to 20 years in jail.

In its judgment, the court in the Belgian capital said “there can be no doubt” about jihadist Salah Abdeslam and his co-defendant Sofiane Ayari’s involvement in extremism.

Prosecutors had asked for 20-year jail terms for both.

Neither 28-year-old Abdeslam — who is being held in jail in France pending a separate trial over the 2015 Paris attacks in which 130 people died — nor Ayari, 24, were in court for the verdict.

Four police officers were wounded in the gun battle after police acting on a tip-off over the Paris attacks raided a flat in the Forest area of Brussels on March 15, 2016.

Abdeslam, a Belgian-born French national, was arrested three days later in the largely immigrant Molenbeek area of the Belgian capital, near his family home.

Brussels attacks

On March 22 suicide bombers from a cell linked to the Paris attacks killed 32 people and wounded hundreds more at Brussels airport and a metro station in the Belgian capital.

The judgment said Abdeslam had written a document addressed to his mother saying that “Allah guided me and chose me among his servants to open his path. It is for that reason that I had to fight the enemies of Allah with all my strength.”

He added that his brother Brahim, who blew himself up during the Paris attacks, “did not commit suicide — he is a hero of Islam.”

The judgment on Monday said that 34 shots in total were fired during the shootout.

Belgian police mounted tight security around the imposing Palace of Justice building in Brussels for the verdict.
Abdeslam has spent most of the last two years in jail in France.

He was transported to the court from France for the first day of the trial amid tight security including a helicopter escort, while Tunisian national Ayari, 24, is in jail in Belgium.

On the first day of the trial, Abdeslam proclaimed that he would only put his “trust in Allah” and accused the court of being biased against Muslims….

    “‘Allah guided me and chose me among his servants to open his path”. Clearly a psychopath talking.

      the allah god of islam (unknowable; the best of all deceivers) tests its slaves to identify who would strive for it … fear no one but it … to be among the rightly guided (9:16+).

      though the allah god is fully aware of all the slaves’ actions, the muslim (slave) must hate what the allah god hates in order to be known or recognized by it

      quite a contrast from the Biblical perspective of the Unique God knowing His own as being those blessed – by Him – with faith in Jesus… where faith is not dependent upon the acts of the individual.

      If they orient on sharia, they are not crazy–they are devout and committed. Something the West would do well to acknowledge….and work to rid their lands of such slaves of allah. The Chinese have made a choice, ugly perhaps in its manner, but they have chosen no to allow the growth of this ideology.

      No, Boris. Salah Abdeslam is NOT a psychopath, but an imitator of Mohammed… the Perfect Man.

      Muslims are SELF-HYPNOTIZED and must be BROUGHT OUT OF THE TRANCE STATE with “ABSOLUTE DEPROGRAMMING”

      “ABSOLUTE DEPROGRAMMING” simply means removing the basis for Islamic faith through exposure to the BEST and MOST RECENT SCHOLARSHIP on the Koran, Islamic history and the Islamic texts.

      Here is an example of “ABSOLUTE DEPROGRAMMING”:

    How can a merciful God direct you to kill. I remember back in the 70’s and 80’s before I became Catholic and the troubles in Ireland. The IRA then struck the Underground in London. Bishops told them that they were not allowed to kill innocents and if they continued they would be excommunicated. This is because their actions are in-congruent with the teachings of the Gospels of Jesus the Christ

    As a Soldier who fought 3 tours in Iraq; I bought and studied a Koran with commentaries to understand my opponent. I have found no provision in Koran that states killing innocent people in the name of jihad is wrong. In other words no one could argue that ISIS is wrong. One could make an argument from the text that it is a fulfillment of the text, a Caliphate. This is not a religion of peace. When faced with disagreement Islam responds with violence usually cowardly in nature afraid to face their enemy face to face. Even when they outnumbered us they would run away like cowards when we fought back.

    I would understand if one country was at war with another that some boundaries of decency might be stretched some innocents getting hurt. They are trying to instill fear and to intimidate people into compliance, this is a theology of domination. It is our way and you need to accept that.

    I do agree with Dr. Scott Hahn to the solution; the Sons and Daughters of God need to out serve the slaves of Allah in order for their to be peace.

    The murderous jihadist Muslim in the city of Paris with his vicious words reflect much about Islam with its god,Allah. For the god of Islam likes it when non-Muslims [Kafirs] die . About the god of Islam ,the television Imam Suliman Satari said “Annihilate the Infidels… Allah count them and kill them, to the last one and don’t leave even one.” Furthermore Imam Abu Hamza Al-Masri said “What makes Allah happy? Allah is happy when Kafiers get killed. [1]
    . The above words of these Imams reflect the example of Islam’s prophet and the teachings of the Quran. “Muhammad now fell upon them [the Jews] slew all the men, nine hundred of them…”[2]
    Moreover, the Quran reads “When ye encounter the unbelievers strike off their heads, until ye have made great slaughter among them. Verily if Allah pleased, He could take vengeance on them without your assistance, but He commandeth you to fight His Battles.” 47:4
    In short, these Imams and their murderous prophet with their bloody Quran show the world what Islam really is. After all, Jesus did teach “by their fruits you will know them.” Matthew 7:20. [NKJV]

    20 years ? A beggarly 20 years ?? For being part of a jihadi gang that murdered 32 and injured hundreds ???

    I could probably get that much for carrying out an armed hold-up of the sub post-office in Cricklewood – maybe more if I got completely carried away and did something really shocking like calling the cashier “luv”, and asserted my male supremacism by holding the door open for a woman on the way out….

    He’ll be back out when he’s 48 – revved-up and raring to go….

      I think you’ll find that this sentence isn’t directly connected to the Paris attacks. This “man” is still to betried for that, in France.

      Insanely, most European nations believe that life in prison is too harsh–so these murderers wind up back out on the street.

    “Allah guided me and chose me…”

    Any mystic can claim that his deity “guided” him and “chose” him. Where is the proof of that? Did he receive personal audience with “allah” to be informed about his “mission”? Or, among traditions of Mohammed, did he claim to receive honorable nightly visit of Archangel Gabriel? Islam must be definitely rampant with “mental illness” and such mystics seem to prove it.

    So his islamic,koranic god allah guided him ….to do evil:”allah” told him it was OK to violate God’s Sixth commandment (prohibiting intentional homicide of the innocent)…is that what we are to believe?

    Well,clearly his “allah” isn’t God then:because God does not ordain evil or encourage anyone to BREAK His commandments.What would be the point of God insisting we OBEY His laws only to somehow influence somebody to sin against God by breaking them?Ridiculous!

    You can be certain that the Good God(the Biblical God) does NOT sanction pederasty,polygamy,slavery,mass murder(activities the great “prophet” of islam happily indulged in we note):A true prophet of God would be required at the very minimum to be fully in agreement with the commandments of God.It seems muhammed,”the perfect man” completely missed that in his life of unbridled,commandment-of-God violating immorality didn’t he?

    The actual God{The Biblical,Judeo-Christian}gave a series of Laws through His prophet Moses
    that reflect the good God’s condemnation of evil:Ten simple laws plus 2 chief ones.

    These laws,which one might say constitutes God’s version of morality,are of course flouted in allah’s “perfect” koran,and they are twisted in such a convenient way to allow muslims to break them.
    The 2 chief ones of course,which are found in Judaism and Christianity,and which one might reasonably expect to find in such a “perfect” book as the koran are COMPLETELY MISSING in islam.Ludicrous!

    So,”The WHOLE LAW of Moses and the teachings of the prophets {depend} on these 2 chief commandments” {Matthew 22 v 40}..are absent in islam.

    Look at what the True Judeo-Christian God teaches via his commandments{10+2}and compare with the warped equivocations of islam’s anti-christian, anti-Semitic* allah{which do not even refer to the 2 chief laws of God!..}and compare and contrast what each teaches with regard to murder etc..

    What does the God of the Bible teach?Obedience to God’s Commandments:you are not free to break them without consequences.This is the basis of both Judaism and Christianity.

    What does the allah of the koran teach?Apart from hatred for Jews,Disobedience to God’s Commandments:you can break them if you are a muslim or if it concerns infidels.

    The koran permits..
    murder k2:191
    adultery k33:50,k4:24
    stealing k48:20
    Bearing false witness taqqiya etc.

    Compare with God’s Commandments and you will note that allah doesn’t agree with them….

    that is because allah is NOT the Biblical God….. but a gross distortion..

    It is not that difficult to figure out:

    Do you obey the official commandments of the Lord God?

    Or

    Do you think you are free to ignore these commandments and get away with it because allah says you can in his koran?

    What attracts the idiot convert to islam (and the delude jihadist) is the mistaken belief that they can take the latter option.

    The choice is given to you as follows..

    “If the Lord is God,
    follow Him.

    But if baal be your god,
    follow him!

    I KINGS 18 v 21

    If you wish to follow the actual biblical God,then you are required to OBEY His commandments{10+2}.

    *allah curses the Jews and the Christians k9:30

    “oh ye who believe!take not the Jews and Christians for friends” k5:51
    Note how allah does not even agree with God’s 2nd chief commandment…

    Oh, I know, they are following the example set by Muhammed, islam’s perfect man…

    First. about the jihad-minded Muslim terrorist and his jihadist Muslim brothers who took part in that vicious and murderous Islamic terror attacks in the city of Paris , on November 13, 2015, is because of those jihad-minded Muslim males who are so extremely deluded and irrational because they really believed in the nonsensical , strange and far –fetched doctrine contained in the Koran, of sex-filled paradise with black eye- houris, virgins, in it for the male Muslim who dies as a “martyr” for the cause of Islam fighting in the jihad. As, this bizarre Islamic doctrine of a houris -filled place is found in the Koran in, for example, 4:54. 55:56. 78:31. So this odd and outlandish Koranic doctrine inspired many young Muslims males to commit many horrendous, ruthless, heartless and murderous actions of jihad violence. Those vicious jihadists’ massacres that occurred in Paris was most wicked and hideous. That extreme deadly evil caused by those jihadist/Muslims with their firm but blind unquestioning belief in the weird and false doctrine from the Koran of such a houris, filled paradise that had the outcome of mass murder and chaos in the city of Paris. This is a strong reminder of the wise statement written by the French philosopher, Voltaire, who wrote “As long as men continue to believe in absurdities they will continue to commit atrocities.”

    Second ,even before those brutal murderous Islamic terror attacks of Charlie Hebdo and then later those jihad ISIS attack in Paris, France, on November 13, 2015 and then that Nice, France jihad murdering jihad attack on July 14, 2016 in an ISIS audio recording broadcasted on September 2014 declared “If you can kill a disbelieving American or European especially the spiteful and filthy French …kill him in any manner or way however it may be.” [1] This alone exposes the vicious and malicious way of thinking of the jihadist who composes ISIS. The result of this wicked mindset where those heinously malice – filled jihad mindset was carried out by those by those Islamic jihadist deadly attacks in Paris and Nice. Furthermore the jihadists of ISIS sure have some gall calling the French “spiteful” since it’s the jihadist ISIS thugs who are so very spiteful that they murder people in many extremely cruel ways. Likewise, the ISIS savages have some gall calling the French “filthy” Since it’s the ISIS jihadist villains who the ones who are so lawless and vile that the kidnap and rape both girls and women.
