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

Congo: Muslims murder 43 in door-to-door killing spree

Dec 18, 2019 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Ask the average college or university student in America today which is the bigger threat in the world today, Islamic jihad terrorism or “Islamophobia,” and he or she will answer “Islamophobia.”

“43 dead in Congo after group with links to Islamic State go door-to-door in killing spree,” Associated Press, December 16, 2019:

Rebels with apparent links to the Islamic State group have killed at least 43 people in eastern Congo over the weekend in a series of attacks carried out in response to a new military offensive in the area, a rights group said Monday.

Rebels from the Allied Democratic Forces in some cases went door-to-door shooting their victims dead, according to a Congolese human rights group known by its French acronym, CEPADHO.

The rebels have been trying to pit the civilian population against the army so that people demand the military action be stopped, said Omar Kavotha, president of the rights organization. Insecurity in the area already prompted demonstrators to protest late last month by setting fire to the town hall….

The latest burst of attacks began late Friday when ADF rebels attacked Beni city, killing six. The militants then spread the violence to several communities surrounding Beni.

Late Sunday, rebels went door-to-door killing people in Kamango, the human rights group said.

The Allied Democratic Forces, or ADF, originated in Uganda and has long been a threat in neighboring eastern Congo. More recently, the Islamic State group has claimed attacks carried out by ADF rebels though the exact relationship between the two is not entirely clear.

    More murders in the name of religion by followers of the worst religion of all time—and the world at large will not take notice of this, will not care at all.

    But climate change and Trump are the real threats to the human race (Islamophobia too of course).

    Yes indeed, there is no end to the absurdity, no end at all. Perhaps human life is, in the final analysis and cosmically considered, truly “a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.”

      Wellington,

      Excellent post, my compliments.

      PS: sure glad I took that course in Shakespeare during undergrad…

        Thank you, James. Well, as I often said to my students, read the Bible and Shakespeare above all. And if you throw in Samuel Johnson, Jane Austen, the Bronte sisters and Mark Twain for good measure, you’re assured you will have covered most everything.

          Ah, forgot the best of the ancient Greek playwrights—Aeschylus, Sophocles, et al. They’re key too.

          Brave New World or 1984 would serve you better in this political climate.

          The Late Great Planet Earth by Hal Lindsey is today’s news…great read for those who want to know their future.

      I think humanity in general has a lot to offer, Wellington (including the brilliant sage you quote)–but those embracing Jihad just offer more blood and suffering.

      • Wellington says

        Dec 18, 2019 at 9:06 pm

        You could be right, gravenimage, about “humanity in general” having a lot to offer. I readily concede you could be right. I hope you are. Better if so, no?

        But then there is that Bard of Avon’s quote I cited and I don’t think this particular “point of view” can be dismissed either. Ah, it’s a puzzlement all right (as is the Bard’s real take on existence—like Plato he so often speaks through other characters and so it is deuce difficult, as it is with Plato, to know what he really thought).

        Hope you are doing well. As always, I welcome your informed and sapient comments. I know of many who comment here at JW whom I respect but no one more than you.

          Thank you, Wellington–same to you.

          In the long view of history, I am quite optimistic about humanity. In the short view, with such horrors as the story above, sadly not so much.

      Atrocities like this will never be reported by the BBC or other MSM because they are too alarming.The populace at large must be kept in a state of dumbed down inertia to avoid them becoming aware that Islam could arouse people to do such monstrous things to their fellow man .Islam is given a free ride in the west because governments are frightened to ‘offend ‘ it

    I was horrified to read this, it reminded me about the story from the Toronto Sun last year about gang rape, Cannabalism, and beheadings in the Congo but have seen nothing since. Several years prior to that it was a story about Congo rebels raping babies…

    Do they, the press, just ignore it hoping it will go away?

    This evil needs to be stopped. What can we do? Anytime I mention anything I am silenced because I am (pick your hateful name du jour) and not to be heard when sounding the alarm about these real life horrors.

    I will continue to pray for the Islamists to be given breath taking visions of Christ the Messiah, to then turn and seek Him and come to know His love.

    Mr. Spencer do you ever have stories of the visions/conversions come across your desk to share?

    ……………….

    Just horrifying. Things in Congo are bad enough without Jihad there as well.

    Does Congo have a government? If so, how do they tolerate any Jihad when their Muslim population is merely around 1%

    • gravenimage says

      The Congo is a basket case–there has been an ongoing civil war there for over twenty-five years.

      But Muslim are always ready to take advantage of any weakness to wage Jihad.
