Radovan Karadzic defends 'holy war' against Islam
The Australian (article from Times Online) ^ | March 2, 2010 | David Charter

Posted on 03/01/2010 3:38:08 PM PST by myknowledge

RADOVAN Karadzic showed yesterday that he will fight the charges of genocide he faces every step of the way, by insisting that the Bosnian Serbs fought a "just and holy" war to block the creation of an Islamic state.

In a belligerent opening statement, the former Bosnian Serb leader claimed that his forces had no choice but to fight the war of 1992-95 to "defend the greatness of a small nation" against a Muslim plot to revive the Ottoman Empire.

Dr Karadzic, 64, was frequently told to slow down so that interpreters could keep up with his four-hour, gabbled history of Bosnia and the conflict that claimed 100,000 lives. His trial, expected to run for three years, is the most important since that of Slobodan Milosevic, the former Serbian President, which ended without a verdict when he died in 2006.

Dr. Radovan Karadzic. This poor Bosnian Serb nationalist is being held in a kangaroo court (The Hague) for defending his nation against a horde of detestable Muslims.

The Serbs who fought for their homeland would say otherwise. Even Radovan Karadzic would prove anyone wrong.

Yes, and I read about the Israelis actually supporting the Serbs while NATO relentlessly bombed the Serbian homeland.

Thanks a lot, Slick Willie Klintoon!

Islam is a religion of peace.

Yes, it says so in their religious documents.

The Koran:

Sura (2:191-193) - "And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution of Muslims is worse than slaughter of non-believers...and fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is for Allah."

Sura (4:74) - "Let those fight in the way of Allah who sell the life of this world for the other. Whoso fighteth in the way of Allah, be he slain or be he victorious, on him We shall bestow a vast reward."

Sura (4:76) - "Those who believe fight in the cause of Allah…"

Sura (5:33) - "The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement"

Sura (8:12) - "I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them"

Sura (8:39) - "And fight with them until there is no more persecution and religion should be only for Allah"

Sura (8:57) - "If thou comest on them in the war, deal with them so as to strike fear in those who are behind them, that haply they may remember."

Sura (9:14) - "Fight them, Allah will punish them by your hands and bring them to disgrace..."

Sura (9:29) - "Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, even if they are of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued."

Sura (9:30) - "And the Jews say: Ezra is the son of Allah; and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; may Allah destroy them; how they are turned away!"

Sura (9:123) - "O you who believe! fight those of the unbelievers who are near to you and let them find in you hardness."

Sura (47:4) - "So when you meet in battle those who disbelieve, then smite the necks until when you have overcome them, then make them prisoners,"

Sura (61:4) - "Surely Allah loves those who fight in His way"

Sura (66:9) - "O Prophet! Strive against the disbelievers and the hypocrites, and be stern with them. Hell will be their home, a hapless journey's end

From the Hadith:

Muslim (1:33) - the Messenger of Allah said: I have been commanded to fight against people till they testify that there is no god but Allah, that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah

Bukhari (8:387) - Allah's Apostle said, “I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah’”

Tabari 7:97 The morning after the murder of Ashraf, the Prophet declared, "Kill any Jew who falls under your power."

Ibn Ishaq: 327 - “Allah said, ‘A prophet must slaughter before collecting captives. A slaughtered enemy is driven from the land. Muhammad, you craved the desires of this world, its goods and the ransom captives would bring. But Allah desires killing them to manifest the religion.’”

Ibn Ishaq: 992 - "Fight everyone in the way of Allah and kill those who disbelieve in Allah."

The Koran and hadiths are replete with examples of Muhammad's barbaric behavior. Robert Spencer does a good job here explaining Islam - Blogging the Qur’an Start at the bottom.

Yup, a regular Islamic “Sermon on the Mount’’. So full of the joy and wonder of Islam’s love and peace. (sar.)

At least in hindsight, this country should admit the error of that military action. Bombing Christians that were fighting the disease of islam was oh so wrong.

A sad day in American history when we threw the Serbs over.

Clinton, with the msm help, lied us into a war of aggression against a sovereign nation that loved America and had done us no wrong. We aided and abetted the victory of our enemy, islam.

The Serbs have been under siege for years. During WWII, the Muslim aligned factors perpetrated genocide on the Serbs that even the Nazi’s thought over the top.

Although they lost that war, Nazi-supporting Muslim factions have not lost the zeal for their caliphate.

I remember when the events began during the Clinton administration that a Maryland legislator at first came out for the Serbs. Then she must have received the memo. Hubby and I were very confused at the time as it seemed as if the Clinton administration were targeting the wrong group. Hopefully, between Karadzic’s spirited defense and that of Geert Wilders, the truth will prevail.

I understand that Kosovo has pretty much been ‘cleansed’ of non-Muslims.

And how nice is it that the Muslims that fought alongside the Bosnians received blank passports to give to anyone that "fought" during the war. I'm sure that bin Laden made sure that the boxes of them got into the hands of the "soldiers."

What is this monument inscribed in Arabic script doing in Srebrenica (Potocari village), Bosnia? What is ex-president of the United States, Bill Clinton, doing here at the unveiling of this Arabic-inscribed monument dedicated to fallen al Qaeda Mujahedeen fighters in Srebrenica-Potocari, Bosnia? Why is Clinton bowing to this monument?
