“Indeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties, for that they will have Paradise. They fight in the cause of Allah, so they kill and are killed.” (Qur’an 9:111)
“Suicide bombers kills 5 police officers near US Embassy in Tunisia,” Associated Press, March 6, 2020 (thanks to Lookmann):
Tunisia’s interior ministry says two suicide bombers blew themselves up near the U.S. Embassy in the Tunisian capital, Tunis, Friday, killing five police officers.
A ministry statement said the attackers both died. A civilian was slightly injured….
Dozens of people have been killed in multiple attacks by Islamic extremists in Tunisia, notably in 2015 when the famed Bardo Museum outside the capital and a luxury beach hotel were attacked….
Michael Copeland says
One day the press MIGHT use “jihadi” instead of the fatuous “extremist” word.
Roll on that day.
mgoldberg says
How many decades have they been describing areas of jihadi attacks as ‘restive’ areas.
Hoop says
HECK.
The news I saw in the US clearly just called it ‘2 bombs went off’ – nothing else…
I had to come here to see it was ‘bomb-vests’
Show me says
Na, not while Trump is in the White House at least.

Two “Lone wolves”
Conspiratorial mental illness,
Ummah of the Ka-Boom-ah.??
Mobuyus says
Lone wolves from the international united brotherhood and sisterhood of amalgamated lone wolves. With locals and chapters in every city or town with muslim populations. Weird that.
Phil says
one day the world might except this is the true face of islam. It has nothing to do with mental illness or misinterpretation, like IS was islam in its purest form. An ideology which offers only one way to be sure all sins are forgiven, by killing non believers is incompatibly with everything.
Tony Naim says
The families of the 2 jihadists who raised the bombers ought to be tracked. Radical Islam grows in families. They are the breeding ground for this kind of savagery.
These families must NOT escape justice.
They must be held accountable for the acts of their children:To the FULLEST extent of the Law. Only such a policy by the west will put a halt to these barbarians.
Phil says
No. I have seen them turn from one day to next… one day playing going out together. The next day he beats the s out of his girlfriend and demands wearing hijab and to convert. imho there is no security some muslim flips.

Yes–the families should *always* be investigated, as well as Imam, Mosques, and other associates.

(Qur’an 9:111) is in need of a modification.
“Indeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties, for that they will have Paradise. They die in the cause of Allah, so they are killed.”
Allah would be willing to double their virgin bounty if they only killed themselves. What a beautiful rite of passage on their 18th birthday. I’d gladly start a go fund me page to stimulate family members interest.

Those two jihad- minded and brainwashed Muslim who were suicide/homicide bombers who had blown themselves up near the U.S. Embassy in the Tunisian capital, Tunis, Friday, killing five police officers have further proven the the fruits of being indoctrinated with the doctrines of the Qu ‘ran may have the results of jihadist /Muslim literally becoming dangerous to self and others .
The jihadist ,or jihadists as in this incident in Tunisia, just after his Islamic suicide /homicide attack right after he died ,to his shock and horror, he found himself trapped and suffering in the fires of an awful place the Bible calls “hell.” Luke 16:19-31. Likewise those dead jihadists, or jihadist, who believed in the doctrine found in the Quran, 44:54. 55:56. 78;31.,of a lust –filled sex paradise with many virgins, in in for his use only, because he ,or they , died as a “martyr” for the cause of Islam. That jihadist will discover the hard way that he was instructed in and put his faith in a false doctrine that is from a false religious book of false religion .
This doctrine of a paradise for the jihadist who died fighting for Islam was only an enticing religious story of fiction. The Bible does give warning against giving “heed to fables…” First Timothy 1:4. [N.K.J.V] As for dying in a murderous jihad attack, in spite, of the Muslim clerics falsely calling it a “martyrdom operation.” That jihadist after in dies in a jihad murder attack, and learn too late, the truth of Bible with informs its reader that a murderer “will not inherit the Kingdom of God.” Galatians 5:21.
In addition, such false teachers, as those imams and mullahs, who teach and ingrain false yet enticing doctrines as that a lust /sex fill place with virgins into the hearts and minds of others had been predicted in the Bible. For it is written, “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine , but according to their own desires , because they have itching ears , they will heap up for themselves teachers ; and they will turn their ears away from the truth and be turned aside to fables.” Second Timothy 3,4.
Walter Sieruk says
Since ,as the above news report reveals “Suicide bombers kills 5 police officers near US Embassy in Tunisia,” it’s thus now an appropriate time to keep in mind that in this twenty-first century conflict between the Judeo- Christian West and the Islamic East which also has been termed “The war of Ideas” the West needs ideas for its very foundation and defense that is far superior to something as weak and worthless as just “opinion.”
What the West needs is wisdom. As the Bible instructs “Wisdom is better than strength.” Ecclesiastes 9:16. [N.K.J.V.] Likewise, this same book of the Bible also teaches in 9:18 “Wisdom is better than weapons of war.” Therefore, wisdom is in strong contrast to opinion. Also greatly opposed to wisdom is folly and deceit. As the Bible in Proverbs 14:8 informs the reader ‘The folly of fools is deceit.”
The deception of deceit may be seen, by all those who are willing to see, in the Islamic doctrine of a virgin filled paradise designed specify for the male Muslim jihadist who dies in the jihad for the cause of Islam, in what they so inappropriately call a “martyrdom operation.” Many a times a jihadist/Muslim is so very deluded the he actually put on his video recording that after he dies in the jihad as a “martyr” he will then in paradise have a “wedding with virgins.” This firm but blind unquestioning folly is the result of such a man believing in deception of a false doctrine. With Light of the Wisdom of Jesus a belief in a “wedding with virgins.” is the outcome of a person accepting as the “truth” an invalid and false. For Jesus taught “you are mistaken, not knowing the Scripture nor the power of God. For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are as the angles in heaven.” Matthew 22:29,30.
A jihadist will after dies and such a murderous way will have a very hard and harsh “reality check” In that “his expectation will perish…” Proverb 11:7.
.
For he will then discover that he was deceived by false doctrine and lie of “a paradise with virgins” and to his shock and horror he will find himself trapped and suffering ,with no hope of escape, in the fires of hell. As the Bible teaches a murder “will not inherit the kingdom of God,” Galatians 5:21. This is sad and tragic but nevertheless it’s the reality of the truth.

You tell ’em Walter BUT remember that 3/4 of the people on this planet don’t adhere to your religion or agree with you.

If Allah is keeping score he must be bummed most of the time.

Dear Allah, virgins are so overrated ?
Rarely says
Rumour has it that allah has a great sense of humour and that the virgins are all men.

From his days in The Sudan, statesman Winston Churchill rightly observed, “Islam affects humans the way rabies affects animals.” Its the reason Barack HUSSEIN Obama REMOVED Churchill’s bust from the Oval Office on his first day as President.
