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

Niger: ISIS claims responsibility for murdering six French aid workers and Nigerien guide at giraffe reserve

Sep 22, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 7 Comments

As far as jihadis are concerned, the aid that infidels offer is only an attempt to entice Muslims away from Islam. Accordingly, it should not be received with gratitude, but with increased suspicion and hostility, which inevitably leads in some cases to violence.

The Islamic State (ISIS) is also quite active in Mozambique.

“Islamic State claims Niger killings of French aid workers,” Associated Press, September 17, 2020:

BAMAKO, Mali (AP) – The Islamic State group has claimed responsibility for killing six French aid workers, their driver and a local guide in a wildlife park in Niger last month.

The Islamic State group said in its al-Naba newsletter published Thursday that a security detachment carried out a “blitz attack with firearms” in the Koure area southwest of Niger´s capital, Niamey.

It also published a photo of two of the hostages still alive….

Islamic State in the Greater Sahara has been carrying out attacks in recent years in Niger and the tri-border region with Mali and Burkina Faso.

The six French citizens and Nigerien driver were working for Paris-based NGO ACTED and Geneva-based IMPACT Initiatives. The other victim was a Nigerien guide at the giraffe reserve about 70 kilometers (45 miles) from the capital.

The French government has warned citizens against traveling outside Niamey as extremists linked to Boko Haram, the Islamic State group and al-Qaida carry out attacks across the country. Niger also borders Chad, Nigeria and Libya.

Violence by fighters linked to the IS group and al-Qaida is on the rise in the vast Sahel region south of the Sahara desert….

    Facebook, twitter and the New York Times should also register as political agents of globalist, statist fascism.

    Most universities should also register as agents of foreign governments like communist China and Saudi Arabia.

    Jihadists see any foreign influence as undercutting their power grab. Who cares about a few dirty kufaar! “Killing infidels is a small matter to us.” – Tabari IX: 69

    So much for progress and development!

    The irony of jihad is that no Muslim government wants jihad to take place on its own territory!

    Islamic states like Iran doesn’t allow jihads against its own power. In theory, all Sunnite countries could declare jihad against ‘heretical’, Shi’ite Iran. The Iranian Shi’ites must tremble at that prospect! It’s happened before in the past.

    St Paul on Muslamism:

    13 o“Their throat is pan open grave;
    they use their tongues to deceive.”
    q“The venom of asps is under their lips.”
    14 r“Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness.”
    15 s“Their feet are swift to shed blood;
    16 in their paths are ruin and misery,
    17 and tthe way of peace they have not known.”
    18 u“There is no fear of God before their eyes.”

      Amen.
      “If I (…) do not have love, I am nothing (…), I gain nothing.” (1 Corinthians 13)
      In the chat at my workplace, people use to write quotes from different people, including Anne Frank and Mohammed Ali. When I posted this quote from Paul of Tarso, the Communications manager\moderator deleted the message immediately. I complained and my direct supervisor rebuked me, stating that I shouldn’t use any Bible passages because it could hurt other people religious feelings. He didn’t give me a chance to respond; can you imagine? There are some muslims working there too…

        Awful to hear. I doubt that anyone but Muslims would complain.
