My ode to Islamophobia

In my years of adventures in the international petroleum industry, one thing I learned about all the Yemenis, Lebanese, Syrians, Iranians, Nigerian Muslims, and Malaysian Muslims I met: they are about as diverse as any other subset of humanity: some religious, some not very religious, some even agnostic, but almost all of them detesting religious extremists, tyranny, and violent fundamentalism.

Also noteworthy: despite the ubiquitous presence of Islamophobic message board warriors, it is actually Muslim men and Muslim women who are shedding blood and dying to terminate criminal terrorist gangs in their midst.


Mosul residents curse ISIL corpses: “Beguiled by promises of Virgins, you’re Garbage now”

NIQASH’s Mosul correspondent left the city shortly after the extremist Islamic State group took over. But most of his family remained. After 34 months, he returned home. This is what he found.

When I left Mosul on July 1, 2014 – fearing for my life because I was a journalist – I never imagined that I wouldn’t be able to return until this month. Shortly before I left I wrote another story in June of that year, about taking a stroll around the city a week after the Islamic State group took it over. I never thought it would take this long to come back and take another walk.

For more than two and a half years Mosul has been isolated from the rest of Iraq, as the extremists from the Islamic State drew the borders of their so-called Caliphate around my city in blood. But now, almost all of the city has been liberated from their brutal presence.
My neighbourhood is like a patient who has just come out of surgery for the removal of a malignant tumour and is still hallucinating from the drugs they were given. Everything is sad. Everything makes me feel like crying.

Also around us as we walk, are the corpses of the extremist fighters. Nobody seems to care about them though. Pedestrians just block their noses as they go by. Sometimes I see them curse these dead men: “They deceived you and promised you heaven and virgins but now you’re just lying here, dead, and soon you will be thrown into the garbage.”

This story does not comport with the claims of message board dupes that Egypt does no care about it's Christian citizens, that in fact it hates them.....

The female muslim fighters that strike fear into jihadis - because they'll rob them of paradise

"They are so scared of us! If we kill them they can't go to heaven. It makes us laugh.... We make loud calls of happiness when we see them to let them know we are coming. That’s when they become cowards,” she says. Under the strict interpretation of Islam by Isis, if a fighter is killed by a women he cannot go to heaven, a fact the women clearly relish.

“I like that when we kill them they lose their heaven. I don’t know how many of them I’ve killed,” Haveen says as she takes a drag of her cigarette. “It’s not enough. I won’t be happy until they’re all dead”.

Top Ten Ways Islamic Law forbids Terrorism

1. Terrorism or hirabah is forbidden in Islamic law, which groups it with brigandage, highway robbery and extortion rackets– any illicit use of fear and coercion in public spaces for money or power. The principle of forbidding the spreading of terror in the land is based on the Qur’an (Surah al-Ma’ida 5:33–34). Prominent

Do you think annihilating ISIS is genocide, my white brother?

Annihilation indicates indiscriminate killing of all.
ISIS is not an isolated community ...they purposely live among the innocent.
That is why they are so difficult to get to.
The hardest part is identification. Annihilation kills everyone there...
A Nazi tactic...

All well and good but they apparently aren't doing a good enough job

Also I have seen many polls of what muslimes believe. It isn't good

Odd that liberals loathe Christians but defend muslimes. It makes you go hmmmmmm
 
It's not just the Egyptian gov't that tries to protect it's citizens-many Muslims have rallied to stop attacks on Coptic churches:

Libyans have fought ISIS in Sirte ( Misrata Brigades) and driven them out.

The Peshmerga are instrumental in Mosul-

we know all this. We also know the rise of salafi-jihad is a cancer on Islam.

Thank you for pointing that out: the decency and humanity evident in all people, regardless of creed, religion, or ethnicity.
