“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)
But to consider the values and beliefs of migrants streaming into the U.S. would be “racist” and “Islamophobic.”

Someone did something to some people.
Check Burry says
Yes I recon thats how SHE would see it.
Infidel says
Somehow, none of us can ever think about Somalia again w/o thinking of Ilhan Omar ?
Lion heart says
Beneath : I bet Muslims would say that suicide bomber wasn’t Muslim in the fist place but rather , an American from CIA and / or a Jew from Mossad did that ?? in order to ruin the BEAUTIFUL image of Islam ? as Muslims used to say that bullshit after every Islamic terrorist attack in Iraq after the fall of Saddam’s bloody regime and I am a Canadian Christian guy myself originally from Iraq.
gravenimage says
Yes–that’s the Taqiyya. Never mind that the most Islamic societies are almost always the most violent.
gregbeetham says
Well at least she knew it was a suicide bomb vest but the question about why someone would blow themselves up didn’t seem relevant apparently.

Walter Sieruk says
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.”
This 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.
Walter Sieruk says
Any jihadist 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. That jihad minded Muslim of ISIS was dangerous to self and others because that he was indoctrinated with and likewise 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 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.
Aussie Infidel says
Walter, With all due respects to your deeply held religious beliefs, we can’t solve problems caused by one supernatural belief by invoking another such belief – even though it might be much more benign. All religion is founded on the same erroneous premise – that there is an omniscient and omnipotent God in some supernatural heaven who offers people everlasting life for ‘righteous’ deeds.
But all such beliefs are simply faiths – beliefs without proof. No human being has or ever will have any concrete evidence for the existence (or non-existence) of a God. It is all a product of our imagination. And the same can be said of the jihadis. They too have been indoctrinated with the same basic false premise. Only the details differ, such as the meaning of “righteous”; and for the jihadis that means “fighting in the way of Allah”.
You say “Any jihadist 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”. But that’s also purely speculation – when we die, we are dead, devoid of life, and no longer capable of sustaining our existence. It might not be a comforting thought for many people, but it’s simply an indisputable fact. As an atheist, I would have stated matters much more directly like, “The jihadi’s blood and guts will be blown in all directions and become fertilizer for the next season’s crop of weeds”.
The sooner we get back to reality with this issue, the sooner it will be solved.

Aussie Infidel, whatever your views on faith in general, believing that all religions are the same is mistaken.
Jimjfox says
AI did not say all religions are the same.
Please re-read his post.
Aussie Infidel says
Gi, I didn’t say “all religions were the same”, only that they are are all based on the same false premise – that there is a supernatural dimension ‘up there somewhere’, which is the domain of this omnipotent entity called God.
By its very definition, ‘supernatural’ means above and beyond nature – or in other words “outside the universe”. As an old astronomer, I understand only too well that we have no way of knowing what – if anything – lies beyond the edge of the observable universe. We don’t even know where that is yet precisely, since long term exposures with more powerful telescopes and ever more sensitive detectors pushes the boundary back ever further. Many cosmologists have speculated on what might be, but they are still only hypotheses. The plain facts are that we don’t know – and we can’t know – because there is no known means of communication (information transfer) beyond that point in space-time. It’s all purely guess work – unless you believe in prayer or revelation. But I’m a realist – grounded wholly and solely in science, not faith.

Aussie Infidel and Jimjfox, the idea that the difference between peaceful faiths and the horrors of Islam is just a matter of “details differ” is pretty quedtionable, even if you do not believe in any religion. Unless, of course, you think that Mother Theresa and the “Prophet” Muhammed are pretty much one and the same…
Aussie Infidel says
GI, I have no delusions about Islam – it is undoubtedly the worst faith to ever have been invented. Compared with any other faith, Islam is a death cult. And of course Mother Theresa was a saint compared to the deceitful, thieving, murdering Muhammad.
Sorry if I allowed my early experience with religion to color my response. When I was a young man I was persecuted by Christians of many stripes simply because I did not believe in a God – and some of those experiences were pretty awful at the time, But life goes on, and people change their beliefs and attitudes – political as well as religious – and these days many of my friends are in fact Christians, Jews and Buddhists.
I always enjoy your comments.

Somalia: Muslim murders ten people, injures ten others in jihad martyrdom suicide attack
……………..
Sadly, I can’t even be shocked by this savagery any more.
ROBERT CARRILLO says
When your garbage can of a country has an average IQ of 68, what more can you expect..
Remember, Minnesota’s eternal embarrassment, Ilhan Omar, and her clan came here from the very bottom of that garbage can..
OLD GUY says
The beauty of islam is a picture of death and violence against others. Why do we want to open our country to this evil and hate by allowing these people to infiltrate our country through open borders?
jimjfox says
Why do religious people need to believe in one god or another? Fear of death? Wanting to be in fairy tale heaven for all eternity, surely the most boring existence one could ever imagine…
gravenimage says
That you feel the need to castigate all people of faith and do not consider murderous Jihadists any different from peaceful people is very odd.
