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

Nigeria “aiding” Boko Haram by freeing hundreds of jihadis who’ve “repented”

Nov 19, 2018 2:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

It behooves the more sophisticated political leaders of Islamic states to promote the idea that they oppose groups such as al- Qaeda, the Islamic State (ISIS) and Boko Haram (a faction of which pledged allegiance to ISIS), but in many cases there are well-documented connections. All subscribe to the Islamic fiqh that sanctions both violent jihad and stealth jihad in furthering the goal of the conquest of infidels. And now:

The Nigerian government is “aiding and abetting” the deadly Islamic terrorist group Boko Haram by releasing captured militants who have “repented”.

According to human rights activist Stephen Enada, the Nigerian government appears to be “paying lip service to the terrorist group.” The Nigerian government is stealthily aiding the jihadist group while putting on a show for those who prefer to believe the propaganda of Islamic supremacists.

“Nigeria ‘aiding’ Boko Haram by freeing hundreds of jihadis who’ve repented, activist warns,” by Samuel Smith, Christian Post, November 10, 2018:

WASHINGTON — The Nigerian government is “aiding and abetting” the deadly Islamic terrorist group Boko Haram by releasing captured militants who have “repented,” a Christian activist has said.

As the Borno state-based Boko Haram has made a name for itself as one of the world’s deadliest terrorist outfits, the Nigerian government appears to be paying “lip service” to the terrorist group, human rights activist Stephen Enada warned last weekend.

Enada, who fled from persecution in Nigeria in 2016 and was granted temporary non-immigrant worker status in the United States, spoke on Saturday night in front of believers gathered for the fifth annual night of prayer for the persecuted church hosted by the nonprofit group One Body in Washington, D.C.

Before giving his call for prayer to those gathered at the Chinese Community Church in Chinatown, Enada sat down with The Christian Post to speak about the ongoing persecution of Nigerian Christians. Boko Haram in northeast Nigeria and radicalized Fulani attacks targeting Christian villages and farms in the Middle Belt have killed thousands this year.

“It has been explained away by the government that Boko Haram has been decimated,” Enada, co-founder of the International Committee on Nigeria, explained. “But that is not true because most of the attacks on soft targets are still going on.”

The Nigerian military has claimed that it has completely “defeated” Boko Haram, a radical Islamic insurgency that began in 2009 and has killed tens of thousands of Christians and others across Nigeria, Chad, Niger and northern Cameroon, and forced about 2 million to flee…..

    Vaguely reminiscent of when Assad released battle hardened terrorists under the guise of “good faith” for them being “political prisoners” only for them to resume the fight where they left it. Who could ever imagine that would happen?…

      Nigeria retains a death penalty … the JIHADISTS ARE GENOCIDAL KILLERS WHO DESERVE THE DEATH SENTENCE.

      2,285 people were on death row at the end of 2017 in Nigeria, up from 1,979 in 2016 and 1,677 in 2015.

      The jihadists are KILLERS and they deserve to be hanged for their crimes against humanity.

      Please “vaguely” remind us of that idiotic statement about Assad.
      Why not use a truthful analogy like the US State Department releasing Guantanamo terrorists to 59 countries and most having rejoined the jihad.

    Look at carrier of lies christine williams talking about Fiqh whose books she could not even read and understand? As I said in one of my comments Boko Haram ideology from wahhabism like Isis,,Alqaeda and Taliban ideology, is quite strange interpretation of Islamic sources to Nigerian muslims ,it originated from heretic khawarij sect rejected by Muslims for long. Nigerian muslims follow maliki pattern of interpretation.
    The Nigerian govt is not supporting Boko Haram rascals, it is decimating them. There is a deradicalisation programme supported by the United Nations to disabuse the minds of some uninformed miscreants who joined this evil group due to poverty. I delivered a lecture to these uninformed miscreants at deradicalisation center and found that they don’t know anything about Islam, they are just muslims by name and as such vulnerable to be deceived by terrorist groups.

        I’m not one to kick a false prophet when he is down[sarc} or add insult to injury but..

        “the prophet told them to go to the camels of charity and drink their milch and URINE”
        sahih bukhari 8:82:794

        It’s impossible for me now to imagine islam’s Great Prophet,channeling his “allah” in anything other than Aisha’s dress…with perhaps a cool,refreshing glass of Camel Wee at hand…

      No, Ibrahim, the learned Islamic scholars of Al Azhar University say YOU ARE WRONG.

      ISIS is NORMATIVE ISLAM, rather than an ABERRATION. You lose, Ibrahim. Read and weep:

      – Dr. Ahmed al-Tayeb, the Sheikh and Grand Imam of Al Azhar refused to condemn ISIS terrorism, “Al Azhar cannot accuse any [Muslim] of being a kafir [infidel], as long as he believes in Allah and the Last Day—even if he commits every atrocity,” adding: “I cannot denounce ISIS as un-Islamic, but I can say that they cause corruption on earth. ISIS believes that those [Muslims] who commit the great sins are kafirs and can be killed. Thus if I denounce them of being un-Islamic, I fall into the same [trap] I am now condemning.”

      – in 1997, Grand Imam Tantawi of Al Azhar University (top Muslim in the world) declared suicide operations legal. He told the Arabic daily al-Hayat that the Palestinian suicide bombers acted in self defence against aggressors and their actions were justified under Islamic shari’a (the implication being that this is true even when civilians were targeted declared such operations legal, blaming Israel for fuelling the violence. He told the Arabic daily al-Hayat that the Palestinian suicide bombers acted in self defence against aggressors and their actions were justified under Islamic shari’a (the implication being that this is true even when civilians were targeted.

      – In 1998, Tantawi again in an interview to al-Hayat, declared that Palestinian suicide attacks are legal under shari’a, stating that: “It is every Muslim, Palestinian and Arab’s right to blow himself up in the heart of Israel”.

      – Ayatollah Khomeini approved of Islamic terror as well: “Whatever good there is exists thanks to the sword and in the shadow of the sword! People cannot be made obedient except with the sword! The sword is the key to Paradise, which can be opened only for the Holy Warriors! There are hundreds of other ayahs and hadiths urging Muslims to value war and to fight. Does all this mean that Islam is a religion that prevents men from waging war? I spit upon those foolish souls who make such a claim.”

      – in December 2015, the present Grand Imam of Al Azhar, Sheikh Ahmed abu al Tayeb said that he was unable to denounce the leaders of ISIS as un-Islamic.

      – in 2015, the former imam of the Grand Mosque of Mecca, Sheikh Adel al-Kalbani, declared that the Islamic State and Saudi Arabia “follow the same thought”. He has stated as well, that ISIS is a “true product of Salafism,” the same brand of Islam as officially espoused by Saudi Arabia. He clearly stated, “We [in Saudi Arabia] follow the same thought [as ISIS], but apply it in a refined way…They draw their ideas from what is written in our own books, from our own principles… we do not criticise the thought on which it (ISIS) is based”.

      – Ibrahim, you lose. Normative Islam is a death cult. Islam is finished.

        The islamic troll forgets that there are plenty of ex-muslims and Arabic speaking non-muslims{lebanese,coptic Christians etc,atheists born in islamic countries..} who can read and understand Arabic and therefore islamic teachings perfectly.

        This idea that Arabic-only speakers can understand the koran is ludicrous{it also excludes millions of Indonesians etc }

        The idea that only Arabic speaking muslims can understand the koran is quite silly:An uncle of mine who worked for the British Embassy in Saudi Arabia,was a linguistics expert and he collected ancient islamic calligraphy scripts and very few of the muslim “scholars” he dealt with were literate enough to read them.

        Unlike allah,the Biblical God is not linguistically-challenged and is not confined or defined by words in any language.God speaks ALL languages!allah,the great islamic sultan in the sky,is confined to ONE language:that’s it…not even Hebrew or Aramaic is acceptable to allah!

      BOKO HARAM IS VERY ISLAMIC:

      “The Islamic State is no mere collection of psychopaths. It is a religious group with carefully considered beliefs, among them that it is a key agent of the coming apocalypse … Nearly all the Islamic State’s decisions adhere to what it calls, on its billboards, license plates, and coins, “the Prophetic methodology … The reality is that the Islamic State is Islamic. Very Islamic.” – Graeme Wood, The Atlantic

      Ah, yes–no Infidel is capable of understanding Muslims appeasing and aiding Jihad. Really, it is beyond the comprehension of the filthy Kuffar…sarc/off

      And notice that he is unable to say in what way Christine Douglas-Williams is wrong–because he’s got nothing.

      As I said in one of my comments Boko Haram ideology from wahhabism like Isis,,Alqaeda and Taliban ideology, is quite strange interpretation of Islamic sources to Nigerian muslims ,it originated from heretic khawarij sect rejected by Muslims for long.

      ………………………….

      Is that so? Then why is it that Muslims in so many places act just like Boko Haram–kidnapping and raping Infidels and slaughtering the insufficiently Islamic?

      Why is it that the “Prophet” Muhammed himself did these things?

      And why is it that Ibrahim itace muhammed has himself affirmed that pious Muslims have the right to do this? What a conundrum…sarc/off

      More:

      The Nigerian govt is not supporting Boko Haram rascals, it is decimating them.
      ………………………….

      Yeah–what could be more indicative of “decimating” them then letting large numbers of them go?

      More:

      There is a deradicalisation programme supported by the United Nations to disabuse the minds of some uninformed miscreants who joined this evil group due to poverty.
      ………………………….

      Yeah–we’ve seem how well these “deradicalization” programs work.

      Here’s just one story:

      “Experiment with ‘deradicalization’ of jihad terrorists fails first U.S. test”

      https://www.jihadwatch.org/2017/05/experiment-with-deradicalization-of-jihad-terrorists-fails-first-u-s-test

      And the claim that it is only poor Muslims who are drawn to murder in the name of Islam has been debunked many times. In face, most Jihadists are rather better off than the norm. This does not surprise–those who are impoverished are often more concerned about earning a bare living than waging violent Jihad.

      More:

      I delivered a lecture to these uninformed miscreants at deradicalisation center and found that they don’t know anything about Islam, they are just muslims by name and as such vulnerable to be deceived by terrorist groups.
      ………………………….

      Now *this* is a frightening image.

      Given that Ibrahim itace muhammed has affirmed that Muslims have the right to kidnap and rape Infidels and keep them as sex slaves, and that they have the right to murder anyone who does not submit to Islam. I’m sure these Jihadists will be properly “deradicalized” now that he is on the case…sarc/off

    Nigeria “aiding” Boko Haram by freeing hundreds of jihadis who’ve “repented”
    ……………….

    Grimly, this should not surprise. Buhari is himself a Muslim–his commitment to fighting Boko Haram has always seemed weak at best.

    • mortimer says

      Nov 19, 2018 at 6:24 pm

      Pres. Buhari doesn’t want to be assassinated by his Muslim, taqiyya-swearing bodyguards.

      Buhari knows the treachery of Islam more than we do. He has lived it.

      • gravenimage says

        Nov 19, 2018 at 7:13 pm

        This is certainly possible, Mortimer. But this may be something even darker than cowardice–Buhari is himself a pious Muslim, after all. His aims are not apt yo be all that different from those of Boko Haram:

      Follow the money(or lack thereof). It costs the government money to keep terrorist jihadis in prison. If the Nigerian government doesn’t care about what happens to “unbelievers” then why should it want to keep housing believers with money it can then consume?

    Nov 19, 2018 at 6:26 pm

    Meanwhile, 1,000 to 2,000 Nigerian Christians are MURDERED BY MUSLIM TERRORISTS every single year.

      Nov 19, 2018 at 7:15 pm
