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

Islamic State rigs cows with explosives in jihad attack on Iraqi forces

Sep 5, 2019 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer

It looks as if Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal plan to commit a mass murder of cows in order to save the planet was right all along. How could we ever have doubted her?

(Yes, you subliterate SPLC fools, that’s sarcasm. I do not actually favor a mass killing of cows, however many are pressed into use for the Islamic State’s jihad.)

“Isis rigs cows with explosives in failed attack on Iraqi forces,” by Richard Hall, Independent, September 3, 2019:

Isis militants reportedly rigged cows with explosives in an attack on Iraqi security forces, in what is thought to be the first time the group has weaponised cattle.

The two cows were strapped with explosives belts and were heading towards a military checkpoint in Diyala province when Iraqi soldiers opened fire and “blew them up”, according to a report on the Kurdish language Rudaw news website….

Local official Sadiq Husseini was quoted as saying that the incident “shows that the group has lost the ability to recruit young people and would-be suicide bombers, instead they are using cattle”….

Isis has taken advantage of the territorial dispute to re-establish itself in the area. According to a report from the Institute for the Study of War earlier this year, Isis holds a “durable support zone” in the south of the province, and has “increased its attack tempo against security forces, local tribal figures, and commercial sites.”…

It is not unheard of for militant groups to use livestock in attacks. Research charity Action on Armed Violence has recorded six incidents of “donkey-borne IEDs” since 2010, which killed a total of 14 people. All of the incidents were in Pakistan and Afghanistan….

Lebanese authorities thwarted a plan by Isis in December last year to carry out bomb attacks during the country’s parliamentary elections.

The militant group smuggled explosives from Syria in buckets of cheese to use in attacks against places of worship, military targets and gatherings of Christians. But a 10-month police surveillance operation, codenamed “Lethal Cheese”, uncovered the plot.

    Good thing devout muslims hate dogs – they’d make for a harder target…

    moslim terrorists will use anything…cows, donkeys, little kids…to murder others. A waste of food, a waste of food producers, a waste of human lives. Evil is what they are.

    Robert Spencer correctly observes that SPLC’s opinion-whore-propagandists who monitor him are unable to pin anything on him, so they go after word meanings, analogical allusions and irony to see if literary ‘devices’ can be twisted into the service of their slander and propaganda. They are desperate to earn their 30 pieces of silver. The UK spy agency and the Canadian spy agency went through Robert Spencer’s literature and couldn’t find one subversive or bigoted remark.

    SPLC will eventually have to realize that Robert Spencer is actually a very fine, virtuous man with extremely high ethical standards and a staunch devotion to human rights, including people’s rights to believe patent nonsense. I agree the SPLC peons are fools. I further add that they prostitute themselves to big tech oligarchs in order to slander fine, moral people.

    SPLC … take a shower. SPLC are Judases to our sacred freedom of expression.

    Ah, the old bomb-on-the-cow trick! Those KAOS agents will stop at nothing.

    Forget SPLC … I’m calling the SPCA.
