How the US failure in Afghanistan validates the Koran's jihadist teachings

Few in the West appreciate how this episode is being used to validate Muslim zeal and faith in Islam.

While it should be a no-brainer that the Taliban's victory in Afghanistan has emboldened like-minded (read: "radical") Muslims to no end, few in the West appreciate how this episode — especially America's disastrous retreat — is being used to validate the Koran itself, and thus Muslim zeal and faith in Islam.

Beginning around August 15, 2021, when the Taliban reconquered Afghanistan, every time I watched an Arabic-language program or sheikh speak, they cited several Koran verses as "proof" that it was only inevitable — only a matter of time — that the U.S. would be humiliated and the Taliban exalted.

Consider, as one example, the words of popular sheikh Wagdi Ghoneim. An Egyptian scholar of Islam and member of the Muslim Brotherhood, he is notorious for issuing violent fatwas against Israel and inciting hatred against other "infidels" (including by threatening Egypt's indigenous Christian minority, the Copts, with genocide). With such "credentials," it should come as no surprise that he once served as the imam of the Islamic Institute of Orange County, California and was a fundraiser for the Toledo, Ohio charity KindHearts (a Hamas front).

On August 15, 2021, this Ghoneim offered a "victory" speech that — at least as of publication of this article — still appears on YouTube, titled (in translation), "Allahu Akbar: The Taliban's Victory Represents the Power of Jihad in Allah's Way." As might be expected, his talk is replete with Koran verses praising the virtues of jihad. For example:

O believers! Be mindful of Allah and seek what brings you closer to him and perform jihad in his way, so you may be successful (5:35).

Chesty Puller would have mowed them all down and stacked up their bodies like cordwood. We have no soldiers left like that anumore....and soon they will be here, and we as citizens will have to do the job the military has not.

The last serious war where we really crushed our adversaries and ended the underlying ideologies was WWII. If you’re not willing to crush the underlying ideology, don’t go to war.

It hard for us in the West to understand that to Moslems everything that happens is the will of Allah.

A devout Moslem doesn't even believe in gravity. If a stone falls to the ground it is only because Allah wills it. He could make it fly upward if he chose. Seriously. There is no cause and effect in Islam. The very concept of logic was purged from the religion around 1100AD. (I may be wrong about that date, I'll have to look it up)

You are absolutely correct, MT. The residents of the U. S. A. has lost their identity with the Prince of Peace and the servants through which this Union was formed. The Satanic Antichristian Mohammedan Marxist Gospel has come to the fore, and either is finally empowered, or soon will be.

In The God's plan, Allah/Satan has long been determined to control the earthly sphere of human government. And he knows that the Prophetic Eschalogical Holy Writings (translated into many human languages)say that it will be his last forty-two month's of thousands if years of earthly dominion stolen by corrupting the federal head of humanity.

But he keeps that pretty much hidden from his human subservient human captives, come to fruition in the hearts and minds of Messiah-deniers, and full ripeness in this precise moment.

The human-incarnated manifestation of God, Who is Jesus of Nazareth, born of Mary the espoused wife of the Israelitic Kingship Joseph, has come, satisfied the requirements of lawful continued existence, and acting in the stead of warned humans completely allegiant to Him, has freed their heats and minds from the penalties of their pre-induction experience.

They will no longer be resident in the earthly realm while the Man of Sin still rules, not when their Heavenly retributive Father, the Mighty Everlasting Omnipotent God measures out the fullness of His fiery wrath upon the disobedient remaining individuals that were originally created in His Likeness.

The Taliban/Muslim goal will be achieved, but soon lost.

Is not everyone aware of this plan?

Allah is another face of Lucifer pretending to be God. The Christian scriptures say a false god will deceive multitudes and insure their damnation along with him. Islam literally fits the bill. Too bad to be them.
