Here is yet another example of why we don’t see more genuine Islamic reformers.
“Maldives: Islamic extremists behind attack on ex-president,” by Mohamed Sharuhaan, Associated Press, May 8, 2021:
MALE, Maldives (AP) — A top official in the Maldives said Saturday that Islamic extremists were responsible for an explosion earlier this week that critically wounded former President Mohamed Nasheed, as police said they arrested two of four suspects.
Hospital officials said Saturday that Nasheed is conscious and no longer needs breathing support. Two of his bodyguards and two apparent bystanders, including a British citizen, were also wounded in Thursday’s blast.
Prosecutor General Hussain Shameem told reporters that investigators still don’t know which extremist group was behind the attack, which left Nasheed, 53, in critical condition in an intensive care unit after life-saving surgeries to his head, chest, abdomen and limbs. No group has claimed responsibility.
Nasheed, the current Parliament speaker, has been an outspoken critic of religious extremism in the predominantly Sunni Muslim nation, where preaching and practicing other faiths are banned by law. He has also been criticized by religious hard-liners for his closeness to the west and liberal policies.
Police announced Saturday that two men were arrested in connection with the attack, and released photos of two others seeking public assistance in identifying them.
Authorities say a homemade explosive device contained ball bearings was attached to a motorbike parked near Nasheed’s car. The device was detonated, possibly with the use of a remote control, as he was about to leave home for an event….

“Muslims attempt to murder…”
In its own poignant and tragic way sums up the burden to all mankind which is the worst religion of all time, “Islam” by name.
Islam is enthralled with death, the enslavement of the mind and replete with utter control-freak aspects. It’s a monumental error in man’s history but it squeezed through the crevices of time to establish itself as something noble and respectable when it is anything but, including, if you will allow me, a word play on “but” by way of extending with one more “t” the risible and undignified way Muslims pray. This is why I regularly call these silly people “Buttlims.”
They can’t even pray with dignity. How pathetic—and completely ridiculous. A Muslim in prayer position itself says so much. Yes it does.
Whatever ails mankind, it’s nothing that Islam can fix. Indeed, quite the opposite is the reality, but since we live in a largely stupid and absurd world Islam will continue to get a pass, even adulated again and again by both deluded Mohammedans (excuse the redundancy) and one of the most pathetic examples of the human species, i.e., non-Muslims—dhimmis—who keep making excuse after excuse for, a la Ataturk, a belief system founded by an immoral, raving 7th-century Bedouin and which belief system poisons life.
Well, I guess just actuarily speaking, seen from a probability point of view, mankind was highly likely to end up with a major world religion which sucks to its core. Mankind did. Mankind got Islam.

Yes Wellington,
Islam remains the worst religion of all time, the Wise of JW are “fighting” against this inherently evil ideology

This is clear proof that Islam is completely based on lies and deception. Otherwise there would be no need for its adherents to every time perpetrate or threaten violence against those who dare to speak out against it.
With the Left fully in support of the Islamists it seems that the only sane way for awakened Muslims in Islamic countries and possibly in Western countries as well who want to leave or speak out against their evil religion is to do it secretly or anonymously.
In a way Islamophobia is a very reasonable and justified response.
Infidel says
And yet people throughout the region think that it’s an idyllic tourist spot. Wonder whether pot is inhaled there as much as it is in Colorado?
gravenimage says
Yes–this is terribly foolish of Infidels. How long before tourists are targeted there?
Eleanor says
I believe the Islands of the Mediterranean, Malta, as well as the Canary Islands, are in peril from Muslim takeover. It may take that realisation to make those European countries concerned to wake up to the Islamic threat. These islands are being invaded by young male North African muslims as we speak.
Richard says
5 people stabbed in Dunedin Supermarket (New Zealand). The police, officials and leftist media immediately dub it as a “Randon Attack” – translation – not a right-wing extremist.
Again they have immediately ruled out “domestic terrorism” meaning probably a Muslim suffering from mental illness and thus desperately in need of counselling and some tender loving care.
Richard says
That’s “Random Attack”

Might be Jihad.
Asura says
The former left govt of India congress allowed it to become Islamic. When you have such govts do people need enemies?
gravenimage says
How could India stop this? They have never governed the Maldives.
Raja says
This former president of Maldives has always been against Islam’s aggression (if my memory serves me right about 5 years) but it has fallen on deaf of the world leaders.
The world leaders are hell bent on steering through the dead skulls waylaid by Islam
OLD GUY says
MURDER seems to always be the answer for objections or accusations about ISLAM. It appears that murder is the gospel of islam.

Yep.

Does it matter that this proves his point? Of course not…
