How American Soldier's used Pig's blood and corpses to Fight Muslim Terrorism
Frontpage Magazine ^ | February 26, 2018 | Daniel Greenfield

A century before American soldiers fought Muslim terrorism in the Middle East, they fought it in the Philippines. Their attackers were Moro Muslims whose savage fanaticism appeared inexplicable. A formerly friendly Muslim might suddenly attack American soldiers, local Muslim rulers promised friendship while secretly aiding the terrorists and the yellow left-wing press at home seized on every report of an atrocity to denounce American soldiers as murderers whose honor was forever soiled.

Much of what went on in that conflict, including the sacrifices of our soldiers, has been forgotten. The erasure has been so thorough that the media casually claims that the American forces did not use pig corpses and pig’s blood to deter Muslim terrorists. Media fact checks have deemed it a “legend”.

It’s not a legend. It’s history.

The practice began in the Spanish period. A source as mainstream as the New Cambridge History of Islam informs us that, "To discourage Juramentados, the Spaniards buried their corpses with dead pigs."

Juramentados was the Spanish term for the Muslim Jihadists who carried out suicide attacks against Christians while shouting about Allah. American forces, who had little experience with Muslim terrorists, adopted the term and the Spanish tactics of burying Muslim terrorists alongside dead pigs.

It was a less sensitive age and even the New York Times blithely observed that, “The Moros, though they still admire these frenzied exits from the world, have practically ceased to utilize them, since when a pig and a man occupy a single grave the future of the one and the other are in their opinions about equal."

Let me put it this way: They aren't living in a dumpster on half-empty Starkist Tuna cans. But their penury has been self-imposed, like Marx's and Ralph Nader's (he was notorious for having no bed, and sleeping on the floor), the poverty of the political bug. That makes it a cheap project for Soros.

[Art.] .....the media casually claims that the American forces did not use pig corpses....

That story's old as the hills, I'm surprised to find that you've encountered what sounds like an official propaganda campaign and authentic "scrubdown", Stalinist-style, of history.

Do you think this occurred under Barky, or under Manor Bush?

Sounds like a good practice to adopt, as jihad will start to increase in America as the muslim population increases.

All I ask is that we take the meat first. The gut pile and bones (excluding the ribs of course) are all that is required.

Never let bacon go to waste.
