You make good points.
This is at the heart of their “religious” playbook:
Qur’an:8:39 “Fight them until all opposition ends and all submit to Allah.”
Qur’an:9:5 “Fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, take them captive, harass them, lie in wait and ambush them using every stratagem of war.”
Qur’an:9:29 “Fight those who do not believe until they all surrender, paying the protective tax in submission.”
Qur’an:9:123 “Fight the unbelievers around you, and let them find harshness in you.”
Qur’an:47:4 “When you clash with the unbelieving Infidels in battle, smite their necks until you overpower them, killing and wounding many of them…Thus are you commanded by Allah to continue carrying out Jihad against the unbelieving infidels until they submit to Islam.”
And, that view continues to this day.
FReeper Qbert reminds us of October 2010 remarks by Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood leader Mohammed Badie:
- “Arab and Muslim regimes are betraying their people by failing to confront the Muslim’s real enemies, not only Israel but also the United States. Waging jihad against both of these infidels is a commandment of Allah that cannot be disregarded.
- “All Muslims…crucially need to understand that (what) the (Muslim) nation seeks can only be attained through jihad and sacrifice and by raising a jihadi generation that pursues death just as the enemies pursue life.”
One should ask, “How much notice does our government require?”
Obviously much more than 9-11. ROP and all that, ya know? After 9-11 it really was Bush's fault. He could have called out islam for what it really is. He didn't. He could have used some of Churchill's quotes. It would have caused a worldwide uproar and possibly even started wars but, what the hell, they are coming anyway.
Stand up and declare the truth, no matter how painful.
Thanks for the ping.
I found some another instance of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood calling for Jihad, and the destruction of Israel in a street protest (it was only reported in an Arab newspaper, of course):
