Obama's Defense of Islam Burned Along with the Jordanian Pilot
Americanthinker.com ^ | F. W. Burleigh

Posted on 02/05/2015 8:00:19 AM PST by RoosterRedux

Obama’s phraseology is an exercise in denial that Islam had anything to do with it. By referring to ISIS as “this organization” and using a clunky circumlocution like “whatever ideology they are operating off of,” he has made it clear he believes that Islam has nothing to do with terror. The cruel burning of the man was the action of a bankrupt “whatever.”

This of course is absurd. ISIS is Islam 101. Islam has a 14-century history of using terror to impose itself, starting with Muhammad, the creator of Islam. Usually it was just matter of cutting throats, lopping off heads, running people through with spears and swords, or shooting them with arrows. Islam is known as the “religion of the sword,” which was the weapon of choice. But even this particular mode of killing by fire has precedents in Muhammad’s behavior, his Sunna, and therefore it is allowable to the people of ISIS, who strictly model their behavior on Muhammad’s example.

Take for example the Dirar Mosque incident, a mosque in Medina Muhammad denounced as the “mosque of dissidence” and ordered it burned down. This occurred in A.D. 630 upon his return from the Tabuk raid at the head of 30,000 men who were disgruntled because nothing had been conquered so there was not any plunder to pay them with. The operation had targeted the Byzantines, but they were nowhere to be found. It is evident from the literature some of his people attempted to kill him on the return trip, and paranoid that dissatisfaction with him over lack of booty could get out of hand, he ordered the destruction of a recently built mosque as a warning to dissidents.

There’s no evidence that Mohammad existed until almost 140 years after he supposedly died. The first reference to him is the “Life History of Muhammad,” by Ibn-Ishaq 768 AD. He was supposed to have died in 638 AD.

He may not have existed at all.

We should follow the advice by http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nassim_Nicholas_Taleb
"Terrorism is antifragile: either 1) Ignore them (impossible with media) or 2) Hit with ALL you got, no “values” BS. Nothing in between. "https://twitter.com/nntaleb/status/562916110614675458

To win against ISIS, replace the crybaby reaction “they are horrible, let's take them to court” w/ “Let us just kill them all,no prisoners.”
