Why did the Islamic State (ISIS) mention Christians? Don’t they realize that they have nothing to do with Islam, and that their massacres are wholly politically motivated, with no religious aspect whatsoever? Why do these simple truths about the Islamic State, truths that are so very clear to mainstream “terrorism” analysts in the West, so hard for the Islamic State itself to grasp?
An update on this story.
“ISIS brag of ‘killing Christians’ in Mozambique massacre that claimed one British life as tales of horror from the attack emerge including a baby shot as his mother carried him to safety,” by Charlotte Mitchell, Mailonline, March 30, 2021:
The Islamic State has bragged of ‘killing dozens of Mozambican armed forces and the Christians’ in a days-long assault near a major gas plant in the country’s northeast.
ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement issued by its Amaq news agency on Monday alongside a photo of militants from the group celebrating the capture of the town of Palma.
Scores of people have been killed, including one British contractor, and dozens of expats remain unaccounted for following the attack, which began last Wednesday.
A caterer from Somerset who worked at a hotel in the area is among the missing.
Tales of horror began to emerge on Monday as some survivors made it to safety and established contact with loved ones.
A small UN plane carrying adults and children – including an injured one-year-old baby – arrived on Monday at the airport in Pemba, the provincial capital where many survivors have been evacuated to.
According to the Lusa news agency, a bullet hit the baby’s leg while he was in his mother’s arms as they ran from the rebels.
ISIS has alleged that 55 people have been killed but this has not been independently verified….
At least seven people, including an unnamed British contractor, are known to have been killed when a convoy from a hotel was ambushed by waiting militants.
The Amarula Lodge had become a refuge for 190 residents and locals but evacuation plans were complicated as the insurgents drew nearer….
Al-Shabab, an ISIS-affiliated jihadi group with no links to the Somali militants, has made gains in Cabo Delgado, the northeast of Mozambique, and seized the strategic port of Mocimboa da Praia in August before the latest attack in Palma….

One very good way to describe this twenty –first century “War of Ideas” is that of a great a conflict and a clash between Christianity and Islam. As explained by the Christian author, William Wagner,, in his book which is entitled HOW ISLAM PLANS TO CHANGE THE WORLD had explained on page 155 about a meeting that he had with a Muslim cleric , which reads “Several years ago one Imam told me that ,prior to 1990, the greatest enemy to Islam was Communism but now it is the Christian missions.” Further, on page 208 the Wagner had written about some zealous Muslims that “They have failed to stop Christian missions. They see Christian missions as their number one enemy.” On the very next page the reader is informed that “Christianity remains the number one buffer against Islam, a fact readily recognized by those who seek a world wild ummah.” [1]
[1] Ummah – The community of all those who affirm Islam.

The violent and vicious Muslims who are jihadists of ISIS in their murderous persecution of Christians aren’t really going to get away with their destruction of Christians. As the apostle Paul had written each individual Christian is actually, in the View of God, a temple of God. For to Christians, it is written in the Bible “Don’t you know that that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst? If anyone destroys God’s Temple, God will destroy that person; for God’s temple is sacred, and you together are that temple.” First Corinthians 3:16,17. [N.I.V.] As in “A man reaps what he sows.” Galatians 6:7.

Bragging about killing kuffaars (kafirs) is very Islamic. One can find total approbation of murdering non-Muslims throughout the Islamic texts (e.g., Sura 47:4 instructing Muzzies that when they meet the non-believers they should strike their necks, i.e., behead them). Mohammed himself is lauded for having people killed (e.g., the some 600 men of the Qurayza tribe beheaded in just one day) or approving of having someone killed (e.g., Asma bint Marwan while nursing her child). So, no one who has studied the wretched religion which is Islam should be in the least surprised that devout Muslims like ISIS members would brag about killing non-Muslims. After all, Islam is a death cult and proud of it.

mozlums bragging about the murderous slaughter of Christians Such a mozlum thing this is…much like the mozlums in Israel who give candy and shout when others are murdered in mass numbers anywhere. It’s taught by their filthy belief system.
They brag about the murders while their fellow mozlums in CO whine and complain that people want to point out that a mozlum murdered a bunch of innocent people…who were shopping or working in a grocery store…because they were not mozlum.
They play both sides of the street and demand that others accept them and their filthy belief system…or be murdered.
mozlums say they are “afraid” to be out and about, knowing that their fellow mozlums are going about murdering…in countries all over the world, and bragging about it.
demonic completely describes islam and the mozlums who revel in it.

The murderous Muslim bandits get supplied with guns so why don’t the Christians get supplied with them as well by the West?
OLD GUY says
YES, Killing Christians and Jews is vary Islamic. Why else would they be rewarded spiritually and with money for killing Christians and Jews? The left and most of the media feels safe because they don’t consider themselves to be Christians or Jewish. False sense of security for them.
