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

Israel spends $700,000 busing Muslims to Temple Mount during Ramadan, one passenger stabs two Jews

Jul 7, 2019 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer

No amount of generosity, no acts of kindness, will ever blunt the force of the jihad imperative, because the jihad is not (as many Western analysts assume) based upon the perceived atrocities of the Infidels. The Qur’an says to fight the unbelievers without exempting those unbelievers who are good to the Muslims.

“Israel spends fortune busing Muslims to Temple Mount, terrorist took advantage,” by Batya Jerenberg, World Israel News, July 7, 2019:

The Israeli government paid bus companies 2.5 million shekels during Ramadan to transport Arabs from Judea and Samaria security checkpoints to the Temple Mount, Israeli newspaper Makor Rishon reported on Friday.

According to the report, one of the Muslims who took advantage of the free ride from the Qalandiya crossing point in northern Jerusalem was Yusuf Ahmed, who stabbed two Jews near the Damascus Gate of the Old City on May 31, the last Friday of Ramadan.

One of the victims, 47-year-old Gavriel Lavi, was seriously injured in the head and neck while walking to the Western Wall. Sixteen-year-old Yisrael Meir Nachumberg was stabbed in the back and moderately hurt as he was checking his bicycle.

The 19-year-old terrorist from the village of Abuwin was shot dead by police as he was chasing a third victim.

The terrorist succeeded in taking the subsidized Ramadan bus courtesy of Israel’s Transportation Ministry even though he had no work permit to enter Israel and hadn’t passed the requisite security checks, the paper reports.

The Ministry of Transportation said that it had paid for the bus rides during the “last days of Ramadan,” meaning that even after the attack, it continued the unsupervised transportation scheme for another three days, as Ramadan ended on the evening of June 3.

The ministry confirmed that it had hired several bus companies to take Muslim pilgrims from three security checkpoints – Qalandiya in the north, the Rachel crossing in the southern part of the city near Bethlehem, and the Zeitim crossing in the east.

Arabs on social media shared the news of the free Israeli trips and warned against taking the expensive taxis that awaited travelers on the other side of the crossings. The Transportation Ministry denied that the trips were free and said riders did have to pay a subsidized charge. Palestinian sources confirmed to the paper that each ride cost ₪ 12….

      The Quran states that Mercy and love for the enemy is a weakness. Moslims are not to have an Infidel or Kuffir as a friend or helper ever. Why are we so stupid? Christ did not say to turn a third cheek, there are only two cheeks and when those are used, it’s lights out for the enemy.

      • Herb Lubi says

        Jul 7, 2019 at 5:07 pm

        And weakness is a show of Submission to Islam, don’t submit to anything or anyone.

          (..Israel spends $700,000 busing Muslims to Temple Mount during Ramadan, one passenger stabs two Jews..)

          Like the US, Saudi Arabia and Nato, Israel loves jihadists and funds them arms and evacuates them when they are encircled! And Like the US, the West and Nato, if you are a Christian and you live in Lebanon or in Syria or in the Islamic world in general, Israel wants you DEAD!

          “Like the US, Saudi Arabia and Nato, Israel loves jihadists and funds them arms and evacuates them when they are encircled! ”

          Sure, CB – that’s exactly what providing a service to its citizens is. Having buses for muslims to travel inside the country is “arming and evacuating terrorists”. Nice logic there, comrade little brain – double gold stars for you!!!

          This from Israel is foolish, but christianblood pretending that it is Israel waging violent Jihad–while lauding *actual* Jihadists like Hezb’allah–is just grotesque calumny.

          This is just projection–it is actually christianblood who wants to see Jews dead.

          Israel provides state of art treatment to wounded Syrian Al-Qaeda jihadists while denying the same treatment to suffering Christians in Syria.
          Like the US, Saudi Arabia, the Arabic, Islamic world and Nato, if you are Christian in the Islamic world Israel is your enemy and it wants you DEAD!

          “Israel provides state of art treatment to wounded Syrian Al-Qaeda jihadists”

          First of all, citation needed. Second: ever heard of the Hypocratic Oath?

          “while denying the same treatment to suffering Christians in Syria.”

          Citation needed

          “if you are Christian in the Islamic world Israel is your enemy and it wants you DEAD! ”

          Ah, must be Monday – weekdays CB is back, and with more anti-semitism than usual. Let’s compare this with weekends CB:

          Angemon

          Christian minority in Israel are safe

          So, which way is it? Are Christians safe in Israel or does Israel want Christians dead? I guess it depends on whomever is operating the account that day… No, this is simply more blood libel. Meanwhile, in Iran, a country where CB denies Christians are being persecuted:

          https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/13757/iran-persecution-christians

          If CB were an honest actor, he’d decry the persecution of Christians in Iran. But what does he willingly chooses to do? Deny persecution of Christians in Iran and claim that Israel wants Christians dead. Soulless little beast.

          Like its US and Nato allies, Israel armed and funded 12 different Islamic jihadist groups in Syria so that they could exterminate Christians in Syria!
          If you are a Christian in the middle east, Israel wants you dead and its funding and arming its jihadist proxies to do its dirty job! More below:

          “srael armed and funded 12 different Islamic jihadist groups in Syria so that they could exterminate Christians in Syria!
          If you are a Christian in the middle east, Israel wants you dead and its funding and arming its jihadist proxies to do its dirty job! More below:
          ”

          All lies, of course. The article simply reads that Israel paid rebel groups (no mention of jihadis, simply rebel groups) to fight against ISIS and keep them away from the Israeli border. Seeing what ISIS thinks of Christians, if anything the opposite of what CB claims is the truth: Israel paid groups that fought against a group that persecutes Christians.

    Proverbs 6:27 “Can a man rake fire into his bosom and not be burned?”

    Taking a snake into ones arms will only result in getting bitten. Enabling evil…is just wrong, on all counts.
    islam is evil and moslims act on it. Helping them to do so is immoral.

    .Perhaps Israel looks at this situation as “humanitarian” or as a preventive measure to try to quell the violence that might erupt if moslims were not able to get to the Temple Mount.

    Whatever the “reasoning,” it’s just plain stupid and almost resulted in death to three people. And the “cost” in money isn’t something at which to sneeze. How do they justify this action? How do they explain it to their Jewish citizens who are endangered by this action?

    • Herb Lubi says

      Jul 7, 2019 at 5:10 pm

      Why are the Jews paying for Moslims to pray to a self proclaimed prophet when Jesus never had to? They are just allowing a Heathen Tribe of headhunters to circle the black cube of Satan.

      • somehistory says

        Jul 7, 2019 at 6:11 pm

        Jesus threw the money-changers (fellow Jews) from the Temple because, as He said, they were “Making His Father’s House a house of robbers..” He would never have made arrangements for these vile, satan-worshippers to prey in His Father’s House.

    Professor A.J. Caschetta said:

    “The truth is that no amount
    of respect will satisfy Islamists.

    Since the end of World War II, U.S.
    policy makers have nearly always sided
    with Muslims against their enemies.

    For decades, U.S. administrations sided
    with Muslim Pakistan over Hindu India.

    U.S. power and technology liberated
    Afghanistan from the Soviet Union,
    Kuwait from Iraq, and Bosnia and Kosovo
    from Yugoslavia.

    Americans have fought—and some have died—
    to save starving Muslims in Somalia
    and flooded Muslims in Indonesia.

    In 1982, U.S. power even saved
    the loathsome PLO from destruction
    by Israel in Lebanon.

    And, in spite of all this, the United States
    remains the No. 1 target of Islamic supremacists.

    U.S. policymakers should recognize that
    no act of kindness, no amount of aid
    and no military rescue mission will
    ever be enough to appease Islamists.”

    The Koran teaches that Jews are the worst enemies of Muslims.

    The Koran’s 5th chapter, verse 82 says:

    “You will find that the people most
    hostile towards the believers [Muslims]
    are the Jews and the polytheists…”

    This accurate and relevant quote from The Koran is
    NEVER MENTIONED in the mainstream-news-media,
    because it sends the wrong message:

    It tells THE TRUTH about Islam!

    ===================================
    If you want the truth about Israel
    and the Middle East, then do not waste
    your time with the FAKE NEWS
    of The New York Times and the
    Israel-bashing mainstream-news-media.

    An illegal alien, then – no one must have told him how “apartheid” and “fascist” Israel was, or else he’d think twice about going there…

    Time for all freedom loving countries to impose a violence tax on all those within its borders practicing the religion of hatred. A surcharge tax should also be added each time a violent act is perpetrated in the name of the religion of hatred. It’s high time for some truth and accountability.

    It’s such a pity that kindness is interpreted as weakness.
    But it would be a shame for the Israelis to renege on their kind principles because of how the terrorists interpret them.

    Surely, man for thousands of years has acted with a certain code or rules to enable him to prosper. Among those basic rules are the care of his children; the care of his wife; the defense of his family, tribe or group. The reasons are simple – the defense of his group will result in their defense of him. The defense of his family will result in their defense of him when he is old. These rules have lasted ever since early man separated from the ape. My question is: why has Islam lasted so long? It goes against any logical historical context. If the civilized ‘west’ had really fought against them in the Crusades, or when they invaded Christian Egypt, Syria and north Africa or when the US navy bombed the north African coast in the 18th century the religion of Islam would be very different if it existed at all. I notice the Arab states aren’t doing too much against Chinese treatment of moslems in China.

    ………………

    Sad when even the usually savvy Israelis act like clueless dhimmis.

    I hope the victims recover, and I hope the Israeli authorities wise up.
