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

Afghanistan: Islamic State jihadis murder 25 in attack on Sikh gurdwara

Mar 26, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Islamic supremacists in the U.S. make a great show of “solidarity” with Sikhs, claiming that both Muslims and Sikhs are victims of “racism.” In reality, Islamic jihadists are just as hostile to Sikhs as they are to all non-Muslims, and persecute them wherever and whenever possible.

“25 killed in Kabul gurdwara attack; Islamic State claims responsibility,” Hindustan Times, March 25, 2020:

Gunmen stormed a religious gathering of Afghanistan’s minority Sikhs in their place of worship (gurdwara) in the heart of Kabul’s old city on Wednesday, killing 25 people.

Within hours, the Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the attack. Those killed included a child whose body was brought to a Kabul hospital, the emergency services and the hospital said. At least 15 people were injured.

The attackers targeted a ‘dharamshala’ in Shor Bazar area of Kabul, which has a sizeable population of the Hindu and Sikh minorities. Some reports said the attack began at 7.45 am Afghan time.

India strongly condemned the terror attack, saying targeting of a religious place in the midst of the Covid-19 outbreak reflects the “diabolical mindset” of the perpetrators and their backers….

    Hard to believe that Afghanistan was Buddhist once.
    The virus of Islam came and their brains got taken over.

      islam is indeed an idea, a mind disease used to justify a man (almost *never* a woman, since women are property) staying childlike into adulthood, and brutally striking out at others for any reason, or for no reason at all. in the 1990s, it might have been called a meme (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memetics), had anybody in the west been paying attention to this sick death cult. sadly, muhammed was a psychotic genius who came up with a cult that cannot be changed, and which served his every personal need at the expense of the rest of humanity for the remainder of his life after inventing it. the buddhists, jains, hindus, christians, jews, and all other non-muslims have paid dearly ever since.

        Indeed but the irony is that even in this country and several other Western Countries ,Islam is hailed as a great religion by many politicians and media for their own gains! Shame on them. Without this conspiracy Islam could not be raising it’s ugly head in 21st century.

    Afghanistan: Islamic State jihadis murder 25 in attack on Sikh gurdwara
    ……………

    *Hideous*. The surviving Sikhs in Afghanistan should flee to India, which has given Sikhs, Hindus, Christians and other Infidels from Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Bangladesh citizenship.

    I don’t think we’ll see India declaring war against Afghanistan, nor slaughtering its own Muslims. Dan Roley seems to be mostly engaged in bizarre projection here.

    Robert, You are right about the enmity Muslims bear toward the Sikhs. At a mosque open day here a few years back, a Sikh visitor asked the question, “Do you regard our religion as legitimate”? To which the Muslim spokesman replied, “No, Islam does not accept that Sikhism is a legitimate religion. How could it be, when Muhammad was the last of the prophets? And for the same reason we don’t recognize your holy book”. It was not so much what the mullah said, but the way he said it – in a very aggressive and supremacist manner. The Sikh man had asked a civil question but got an uncivil answer. Given that this happened with the local police commissioner present, could you imagine the response if it had occurred in a less secure situation?

    And this is why Indian PM Modi is right with his Citizenship Act for persecuted minorities from Muslim countries.

      Re: Muslim answer to Sikh visitor ” “Do you regard our religion as legitimate”? To which the Muslim spokesman replied, “No, Islam does not accept that Sikhism is a legitimate religion. How could it be, when Muhammad was the last of the prophets? And for the same reason we don’t recognize your holy book”
      You can add to that Muslim’s response: “Islam does not accept that Sikhism, Hinduism, Mormons, Bhahai, Catholics, Christians & Judaism are legitimate religions.”
      Islam is so illegitimate and full of lies & delusions!

    The entire Sikh cult was formed in opposition to the Moslem Jihad. It is first a warrior cult against the Jihad.
    How many Sikh’s know this and how many Sikh’s are dense enough to believe that Moslems are their ‘brothers’. Moslems slaughtered hundreds of thousands of Sikh’s, not to mention 50 million + Buddhists and Hindus.

    India should make immediate arrangements for repatriation of those Sikhs who still remain there.All those who arrive should be granted instant citizenship with cash doles to settle down.This is one way of responding to those who have been protesting against Citizens Amendment Act , CAA since so many months.

    Sikhs are not safe in Afghanistan. They should all leave and take refuge in India.
