Sri Lanka Cardinal Says Muslim Envoys Assured Him Bombings Had ‘No Connection to Islam’

The Islamic terrorist group ISIS claimed responsibility for eight bombings, whose targets included three churches and four hotels. The death toll has continued to rise, reaching 359 on Wednesday.

That’s like me sitting at my desk with a bunch of empty Easter candy wrappers and telling my boys I didn’t eat their candy.

well that’s a relief. Isn’t this the religion that allows it’s members to lie to “non-believers?”

Sophisticated explosives indicate that ISIS has slithered out of Syria: members not only returned to Sri Lanka, but brought explosives knowledge.

Taqiya !

In Islam, Taqiya or Taqiyya (Arabic: تقیة‎ taqiyyah, literally "prudence, fear")[1][2] is a precautionary dissimulation or denial of religious belief and practice in the face of persecution.[1][3][4][5] Another term for this concept, kitmān (lit. "action of covering, dissimulation"), has a more specific meaning of dissimulation by silence or omission.[6][7]

This practice is emphasized in Shia Islam whereby adherents are permitted to conceal their religion when under threat of persecution or compulsion.[3][8] However, it is also permitted in Sunni Islam under certain circumstances.[9]

Taqiyya was initially practiced under duress by some of Muhammad's Companions.[10] Later, it became particularly important for Shias due to their experience as a persecuted religious minority.[8][11] According to Shia doctrine, taqiyya is permissible in situations where there is overwhelming danger of loss of life or property and where no danger to religion would occur thereby.[8] Taqiyya has also been politically legitimised, particularly among Twelver Shias, in order to maintain unity among Muslims and fraternity among the Shia clerics.[12][13]

Muslims and their media apologists play this rhetorical game EVERY time there’s another Islamic Terrorism attack.

According to them, “Killing is forbidden in Islam”, so “nobody who kills can be a Muslim”, so terrorist killers are never Muslims.

It’s a fake and disingenuous shirking of responsibility - what, the guy is a Muslim right up to the moment he presses the detonator button, but then the second he blows up he’s not a Muslim??

It’s crap logic and nobody challenges it. Enough.

It’s called Islamic Terrorism for a reason, and it’s the #1 threat to most of the World.

Even if they said that, why would this jackass repeat it?

He sure looks like an idiot, believing what they are telling him.

If they begged forgiveness, now that might be a different story...

“no connection to Islam.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Ministry of Propaganda has helpfully told us repeatedly that that’s what they mean when they yell, “Allahu Akbar”

Halloween is a great opportunity to instruct/introduce your kids to the concept of Income Taxation.
