“Fight those who do not believe in Allah or the Last Day, and do not forbidden what has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, and do not acknowledge the religion of Truth, even if they are of the People of the Book, until they pay the jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued” (Qur’an 9:29).
A hadith depicts Muhammad saying: “Fight against those who disbelieve in Allah. Make a holy war…When you meet your enemies who are polytheists, invite them to three courses of action. If they respond to any one of these you also accept it and withhold yourself from doing them any harm. Invite them to (accept) Islam; if they respond to you, accept it from them and desist from fighting against them…. If they refuse to accept Islam, demand from them the Jizya. If they agree to pay, accept it from them and hold off your hands. If they refuse to pay the tax, seek Allah’s help and fight them. (Sahih Muslim 4294)
“Islamic State claims responsibility for market blast in Philippines,” Reuters, September 8, 2019 (thanks to Henry):
MANILA (Reuters) – The Islamic State militant group has claimed responsibility for an explosion at a public market in the southern Philippines that wounded at least seven people early on Saturday.
The group issued a statement late on Saturday saying the motorcycle bombing had wounded seven Filipino Christians at a public market.
It was the fourth blast in the area in 13 months, according to the Philippine military, which said a militant group operating in the mostly Christian city of Isulan in the province of Sultan Kudarat was among the suspects….

To all the leftist imbeciles claiming that islamic terrorist attacks in the West are simply a justified response to western imperialist agression, like the Young Turks contributor Hasan Piker who recently proclaimed that America deserved 9/11 , what is your take on terror attacks such as this one which occur virtually every single day? Can you elaborate on the history of the evil Philippino imperialists who colonized and oppressed the Muslim world? Or the evil Hindu crusaders who conquered and enslaved the poor innocent Muslims for centuries, (hence why all the terrorist attacks against Hindus I guess)…

Excellent questions SAFI and if I may take the opportunity to add a couple more in the same vain. When was the last time the King of Thailand or its elected government invaded and subjugated an Islamic nation? Never. Nor has any Christian from Nigeria ever attempted to conquer, much less accomplish, any Islamic nation and yet the Fulani kill and destroy their homes relentlessly. We could go on but neither of us will receive an answer from them.

True, SAFI. It is the same with blaming Jihad terror on Israel. Not only is this false in itself, but it belied by stories like this one.
Pet Charles says
I am sick and tired of reading about Christian victims of Islamic attacks. Gengihs Khan aka Temujin showed the world how to deal with Islamic terror. He went in and wiped out all the Islamic attackers including the animals and Islam left him alone. If Christians do not want to fight back then they deserve what they get.

PC, you are a deeply ignorant person. Modern armies have strict human rights codes and your medieval nightmare is not going to happen. You should get down on your knees and ask God to forgive your malicious, cruel thoughts and give you compassion for your fellow creatures. They may be wrong in their thinking but they are God’s precious creatures too.

Mortimer, I don’t remember disagreeing with you before now but Pet Charles does have a point. Had we tied both our hands behind our back during WWII, we would be speaking either Japanese or German. The Dresden bombing would be considered a war crime today as would the bombing of Tokyo, not to mention Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The non Muslim world should take the war to those who sponsor and direct the slaughter of innocent people just as was done during the war against the NATZIs and Japanese imperialism.

Of course, we didn’t act like the Fascists, either.
The idea that you have to adopt barbaric savagery in order to defend against Jihad is mistaken–but you can’t appease it, as is happening in so many places, including in the Philippines.

I wouldn’t be quick to praise a guy who makes Hitler look like Jesus incarnate. But I fundamentally agree with you — only an iron fist can resist the ongoing islamic jihad. The problem is the fact that Christianity is a peaceful and pacifist religion at its core (“love thy neighbor”, “turn the other cheek”, etc.). Not to mention that its been practically hijacked by leftist, marxist, communists and useful idiot priests who actively encourage hijirah (jihad by immigration).
But Christianity’s meekness and hijacking is not the main problem. In fact, I’m sure that the majority of ordinary Christian citizens in the West would gladly join in a Crusade to defend their ancestral Christian homelands from the muslim onslaught (myself included, even though I’m an atheist). The real problem is the people on top — marxist globalists — who can’t kill off their native European population fast enough because they dare resist the One World Government by clinging to pesky “patriotism” and “national identity”. As long as they’re in charge and nothing is done to stop them, the West will eventually crumble with a whimper.

The Koran says, ‘TURHIBUNNA’ (terrorize them). K.8.60. There is no need to have a furthermore motive for terrorizing the dirty kufaar than the eternal commandment of Allah.

Yep.
PRCS says
Isulan might be a predominantly Christian town, but the Sultan Kudarat province has a large Muslim population (though unlike several nearby provinces [Sulu as an example], it doesn’t have its own government.
Towns like Isulan will continue to be attacked until they become Muslim majority or the Philippine government eliminates the Muslim threat.
gravenimage says
Grimly true, PRCS.
SAFI says
Huge mistake but sadly so typical of the naive kufar. I’ve seen it being repeated again and again with the same destructive results. Making such concessions to the Muslims always leads to them asking for even more. They don’t want this kind of autonomy as a means to better protect their culture as the kufar naively imagine, but only as a stepping stone towards complete takeover. And now the Philippines and other countries in a similar predicament can’t even do anything to protect themselves from such threats of islamic sedition without being attacked by the western dhimmi regimes who always step forward to defend islamic privilege worldwide.
elee says
Hey DuTerte do you prefer Muslims to drug dealers? Or do you fear them?
gravenimage says
Yes, elee–a lot of people consider Duterte a tough guy–but he is chiefly tough on drug addicts, who are regularly murdered in the Philippines. But then he schmoozes with Jihadists. Very disturbing.
