John Brennan: "Jihad Is a Holy Struggle" (Flashback 2010)
Middle East Quarterly ^ | June 1 2010 | N/a

Posted on 08/16/2018 4:17:53 PM PDT by ifinnegan

Nor do we describe our enemy as "jihadists" or "Islamists" because jihad is a holy struggle, a legitimate tenet of Islam, meaning to purify oneself or one's community, and there is nothing holy or legitimate or Islamic about murdering innocent men, women, and children.

Analysis of Brennan's pro-Islamist speech from 2010.

He's speaks for Islam as a US official here and as if he is speaking for Islam.

Talk about being an enemy of the people...

He should NEVER have had such a position of power.

Something ain't right about Brennan. He looks like he has Parkinson's mask:
The person with Parkinson's disease doesn't project an approachable persona. The loss of some of the control of the face and head muscles creates a stare-like feature that is referred to as the "Parkinson Mask." The eyes don't blink as much; the smile, if there is one, appears forced or is of a short duration. The stiff neck and shoulders remind us of Frankenstein.Michigan Parkinson Foundation

Anyone who has witnessed it before will recognize it immediately in Brennan. But he doesn't have Parkinson's disease as far as I know. Put he does have the symptoms of the mask. I truly believe that it is some sort of demonic possession. How could an avowed communist and convert to Islam rise to such levels in the United States government?

Who runs the US currently? Why are the Saudis continuing their Mosque building non stop in areas with little or no muslims, why are muslims flown into this country every night & then put on disability so that they have money? Why did the saudis just get into it with Canada (they stoped the tax payer exemptions on the Saudi built mosques :https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/assalam-mosque-ottawa-charity-revoked-1.4780280 ).Just the beginning!!!!

Brennan was a perfect fit for Obama, who said “ISIL{/ISIS} is not Islamic and Clapper who said “The Muslim Brotherhood is secular!”

Yes and we have had dozens of threads here over the past year(s) regarding them selling state secrets after they've left office with their clearances and you know that's exactly what is happening.

Ah, there is the rub. If people don't follow Islam they're not innocent, they're the enemy.
Followers of Islam who are killed accidentally in war are innocent and considered martyrs.

Let the community purification begin.

Some twisted minds there.

Brennan can go peddle that ‘internal struggle for purity” taqiyya elsewhere. These days, he’d fit right in over in the U.K.

Yes. “Innocent” is the out.

It was superfluous unless meant as a qualifier.

How come there was never any outcry about Obama appointing this Communist Islamist in the first place?

Brennan writes: “Nor do we describe our enemy as “jihadists” or “Islamists” because jihad is a holy struggle, a legitimate tenet of Islam.”

Regarding the Jihad against the unbelievers, Jihad itself occurs on four levels. Within the heart; with the tongue; spending wealth, and finally and most importantly, “By action of the hand”, i.e. the sword. Precisely because jihad is a visible holy struggle, those who participate with the sword are recognized Jihadists. Others are simply practicing Muslims. For those who take up the sword in Jihad the Koran stipulates no limits: See Koran, Sura 47:4; 9:29; 4:76,74; 8:12,38,39; 9:19.

"..18 “Who runs the US currently?"

More like who has been running it. I think we already know what their evil plan was.

We are certainly compromised from within. I just wonder how far back it goes.

It all happened during the Barrack administration.

BTW does Hussein still have his security clearance?
