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

Italy: Muslim says coronavirus is ‘something from Allah, a positive thing,’ because ‘people are going mad’

Jul 13, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer

“Make ready for them whatever force and strings of horses you can, to strike terror into the enemy of Allah and your enemy, and others besides them that you know not; Allah knows them. And whatever you spend in the way of Allah shall be repaid you in full; you will not be wronged.” (Qur’an 8:60)

“Italian arrested for spreading ISIS propaganda, saying Allah sent COVID,” ANSA, July 8, 2020:

(ANSA) – MILAN, JUL 8 – A 38-year-old Italian man was arrested in Milan Wednesday for spreading ISIS propaganda and saying Allah sent to COVID pandemic.

Police said the man had been radicalised since 2015.

He allegedly urged social media followers to embrace global jihad against all infidels, police said.

He has been charged with instigation to commit a crime aggravated by using the Web….

In an intercept on March 27, police said, the man claimed that the COVID emergency “is something from Allah, a positive thing”, because “people are going mad”….

    How many times have we heard this sort of thing from muslims? First it was supposed to be a a gift from Allah to punish infidels by killing them, then it became apparent that muslims were being hit and least as hard themselves. Now it’s supposed to be a ‘positive thing’ because ‘people are going mad’ but he doesn’t specify which particular people and he doesn’t seem to explain why being driven mad is ‘positive’. And I seem to recall that the most common defence for muslims accused of terrorist atrocities is that they have ‘mental health issues’. So apparently they’ve been driven mad well before the corona virus appeared.

    If people are going mad why are the most dangerous ones always either Marxists or Muslims? Must be because their minds were already twisted towards hate and violence in the first place.

    So a “Muslim” has said something silly about the virus, perhaps misleading people inappropriately. I heard something equally silly said in the supermarket this morning. He might have been a “Presbyterian”.
    But elsewhere, an “American” has also done this, often. Possibly causing people to die. Of course there are nut jobs in every society. Mostly, we quite rightly ignore them.

    But sometimes they’re more dangerous than the anonymous fanatics in Italy or in my supermarket.

    FEB 25
    “You may ask about the coronavirus, which is very well under control in our country. We have very few people with it, and the people that have it are … getting better. They’re all getting better. … As far as what we’re doing with the new virus, I think that we’re doing a great job.”
    — Donald Trump

    FEB 28
    “It’s going to disappear. One day, it’s like a miracle, it will disappear.”
    — Donald Trump

    Why single out the poor “Muslim”? Shouldn’t we be focussing our attention on the “American” ? They both need help.

      The old “some people did something” line of defense, eh?

      • Rod says

        Jul 13, 2020 at 9:38 pm

        Defense? Who is defending who from what?

        I am accusing Spencer of an obsession with trivial absurdity. This is just another example. He has apparently written books. Full of trivialities?

        Yesterday I accused him of lying to you. No defence was offered. Curious, eh? Just another day at Jihad Watch.

        Are his books full of lies too?

        Meanwhile, I read that –
        “Trump has expressed nearly 1,200 lies and misleading claims about the pandemic, many of which revolve around America’s testing capacity. ”
        So Robert Spencer, obsessed with triviality, thinks it’s vitally important to tell you what some “Muslim” said about the pandemic. And you people think it’s important to read it.

          Rod, the police in Italy thought that what the man said was important enough to arrest him.

          Do a little more study, Antifa man, and you will notice this single muslim, just like millions of other single muslims, is happy about the presence of COVID-19 and hopes it will kill as many people as possible. The POTUS has not said anything of the like yet but if he’s willing to make an exception for you that’s fine by me.

    • gravenimage says

      Jul 13, 2020 at 10:54 pm

      The implication that hoping that the Coronavirus is under control–whether it is or not–is morally the same as praising the Coronavirus for killing people is utter claptrap.

      Why is it every time a Muslim kills or rapes, we are told they are mentally ill? Why did the 21 year old “poor” Muslim beat 75 year old Sara Anne Widholm while she was out walking in the park. He beat her so badly she was found on a foot path unconscious and died, in the hospital 14 months later. What has happened to that “poor Muslim” in Justine Trudeau’s Canada?

      From day one nobody has been able to find out anything about this “poor Muslim”. Sara’s husband died suddenly a month after she was beaten. 14 months later Sara died. The poor 21 year old Muslim beat her on October 8, 2017 and still nobody seems to know when or if there ever was a trial for the “poor Muslim”

      We should be focusing ALL our attention on the Muslim Brotherhood hoods Plan for America. the West needs help from people like you Rod.

      • E T says

        Jul 14, 2020 at 9:52 am

        Sara and Alfred’s son, Eric of Georgia said: We are trusting the Crown to do due diligence in this matter and show the community of Windsor and ALL of Canada that they are looking out for the best interest of their citizens and to be strong and faithful advocates for justice and the protection of the innocent.

        Sara’s only mistake was walking in the park that Sunday, October day, after church and picking up litter, something she did every Sunday.

  4. A Gnostic Agnostic says

    Jul 13, 2020 at 10:54 am

    COVID-19 is manufactured for the purposes of Islamic jihad.
    They have admitted this tacitly several times now, including here.

    Muslims are the real book-worshiping “Jews” who pathologically
    scapegoat their own crimes against humanity onto others.

    This is because Muslims can not account for their own actions,
    the same is the original sin of Adam, hence blaming the woman
    leads to the hijab/niqab/burqa and Muhammadan men abusing women.

    The “Deep State” is the Muslim Brotherhood and the agenda
    is to kill the unbelievers, just as the man-made Qur’an instructs.
    Muslim = Jew = clarifies everything.

      Why is this poster always ranting about Jews? And no–falsely saying the Muslims are Jews clarifies nothing.

    This is simply more proof that Mudslimes are ahead of the rest of humanity.
    The Wuhan virus was sent to drive us infidels mad? Looking at the behavior of some sections of the population I could start to believe that.
    But, then again, Mudslimes have been insane for centuries and all that took was a book written by a perverted control freak.

    Yeah, I think this Muslim maggot’s thought process must be that if more people go mad then they are likely to join Islam, since you would have to be mad to join such a barbaric throwback to mankind’s more primitive days. But also, here is Islam, this evil ideology, rejoicing (according to this Muslim) in an unfortunate affliction, namely this virus which is killing and harming so many people, and this is typical of Islam, which always seems to be made happy by people’s misfortune. Such an evil ideology. Other religions would say that this virus is a terrible thing for mankind to have to deal with.

      “…here is Islam, this evil ideology, rejoicing… and this is typical of Islam, which always seems to be made happy by people’s misfortune.”

      Spot on, tim. Perfect examples of sadistic behavior.

      From Merriam-Webster:

      “Definition of sadistic

      Taking pleasure in the infliction of pain, punishment, or humiliation on others.”

      • tim gallagher says

        Jul 14, 2020 at 12:38 am

        Yes, James, that’s the way I see Islam. It is always rejoicing and cheering on any evil that befalls people (well, non-Muslims anyway). It is a disgusting and sadistic ideology. It fits right in with the mindset of de Sade himself. An example, which I often think of, as an animal lover, and which someone just recently mentioned here at Jihad Watch, is the halal way of killing animals. Decent cultures have aimed to find less cruel ways to kill animals, but there’s sadistic, evil Islam, of course, killing animals in the most vicious way possible. Says it all about islam I think.

    When people go mad they get a lot closer to Islam and the ideas of Mohammed.

    Italy: Muslim says coronavirus is ‘something from Allah, a positive thing,’ because ‘people are going mad’
    ……………

    Ugly stuff–but then, we have heard many Muslims rejoicing over this pandemic. And why not? Pious Muslims tel us how they love death.

    Well he is right about one thing if Allah sent it, it’s probably bad. Islam is definitely not a religion of good and love it is the exact opposite.

    That Muslim man who said that the “coronavirus is something send from Allah” That statement does fit the cruel vicious character of the god of Islam ,Allah.

    For According to the Quran it’s Allah, the god of Islam ,who is the responsible for that starting and continuing the plague of coronavirus

    What a cruel and vicious god, Allah is.

    For when getting down to basic Quran theology which is the Quran based worldview the one who is really to blame and is responsible for the coronavirus plague is the god of Islam ,Allah. For according to the Quran Allah had sent cruel disaster of coronavirus on human beings .

    This means then the god of Islam, as if he really does is a destructive and malicious god. For the Quran teaches in Surah 57:22. “No misfortune [disaster] can happen on earth or in your souls but is recorded in a decree [Quran ] before [in eternity ] We [Allah] bring it into existence: that is easy for Allah.”

    Therefore according the Islam’s “holy book,” the Quran the Islamic god, Allah, is guilty of infecting people with coronavirus What a cruel vicious, malicious god Allah must be. So Allah is than a very unloving malice –filled god.

    Nevertheless, all Christians and Jews shout not lose faith and heart in the God of the Bible as vicious by sending coronavirus on people.

    This is because the god of Islam is should be made clear that the God of the Bible is not really Allah the god of Islam. To explain, through the passing of time it has become widely accepted that the word “Allah” is just the Arabic word for God. This started when truth compromising Bible “translators” substituted the word Allah where the word God should have had been uses in the Arabic translation of the Bible. Furthermore, in the glossary in the book ASSASSINS! By Dr. Haha Lung it defines Allah as the “Pre-Islamic Lunar god : the god of Islam. “

    Likewise, in the book entitled INSIDE ISLAM by a former Muslim who is now a Christian, Reza F. Safa on pages 22, 23 it reads “In pre-Islamic times both Allah –worship and Baal-worship involved the worship of the sun, the moon and the stars which h defines them as astral religions. [Which are condemned in the Bible, Second Kings 23:5] The crescent moon, which was the symbol of moon worship, is also the symbol of Islam.”

    In conclusion the Islamic god, Allah, is not the God of the Bible. The words in brackets are my
