Kill and Cry, Kill some more, Cry some more

Kill and cry. That is Islamic strategy boiled down to its essential oils.

First, they murder and then whine about islamophobia. Slaughter, then school us on racist-islamophobic-anti-muslim-bigoty.

Consider if Christian groups around the world started beheading people while screaming things like "In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit." What would that say about Christianity?
 
What does it say about Islam? Jihadists play soccer with severed heads.
 
And yet.......the tools at The Guardian cut and pastes this propaganda from jihadist websites and runs it as news: UK anti-Muslim hate crime soars: (thanks to Inexion)

Forces report a surge in the number of reported incidents after the murder of soldier Lee Rigby by Islamic extremists in May

UK Muslim group that fabricated evidence of "wave of attacks on Muslims" in wake of London jihad murder still claiming sharp rise in "Islamophobia" (thanks to Robert Spencer)

Fiyaz Mujhal

Andrew Gilligan reported in the Telegraph last June 9 that Tell Mama was not going to "have its government grant renewed after police and civil servants raised concerns about its methods." What was wrong with its methods? It had "claimed that there had been a 'sustained wave of attacks and intimidation' against British Muslims after the killing of Drummer Lee Rigby." But Tell Mama and Fiyaz Mujhal (spelled "Mughal" in Gilligan's report and elsewhere) "did not mention, however, that 57 per cent of the 212 reports referred to activity that took place only online, mainly offensive postings on Twitter and Facebook, or that a further 16 per cent of the 212 reports had not been verified. Not all the online abuse even originated in Britain. Contrary to the group’s claim of a 'cycle of violence' and a 'sustained wave of attacks', only 17 of the 212 incidents, 8 per cent, involved the physical targeting of people and there were no attacks on anyone serious enough to require medical treatment."'

No attack on any innocent person is justified. Tell Mama is clearly not interested in defending innocent people, but in inflating the numbers of attacks on innocent Muslims, so as to create and perpetuate the false and tendentious claim that resisting jihad terror and Islamic supremacism somehow endangers innocent people. Tell Mama and Faith Matters showed this clearly when they demanded that the UK Home Office ban Pamela Geller and me from entering the country; the Home Office should have recognized the dishonesty at the heart of their effort in light of their manipulation of the "Islamophobia" figures. And now we learn that even though this group has been discredited, the Association of Chief Police Officers is still working with it. Insane Britannia indeed.

"UK Islamophobic Attacks Surge in 2013," from OnIslam, December 27:

LONDON – Hundreds of anti-Muslim hate offences have been carried out across the country in 2013, with Britain's biggest force, the Metropolitan police, recording an increase of 49% than last year.

"The far right groups, particularly the EDL (English Defence League) perniciously use the internet and social media to promote vast amounts of online hate," Fiyaz Mujhal, director of Faith Matters, which runs the Tell Mama project, told Press Association on Friday, December 27.

According to Mujhal, reaction to the murder of Fusilier Rigby had caused the number of Islamophobic crimes to "significantly jump".

Reports released on Friday found that the Metropolitan Police recorded 500 Islamophobic offences from January to mid-November this year, compared with 336 offences in 2012 and 318 in 2011....

Mujhal asserted that tougher sentences were needed to tackle Islamophobic crime, noting that the guidelines by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) to monitor social media were "not fit for purpose".

"They raised the bar of prosecution significantly.

"Now unless there is a direct threat to somebody on Twitter or Facebook, the CPS will not prosecute. The CPS is just plainly out of sync with reality.

"We also need more robust sentencing. In one case, a pig's head was left outside a mosque and the perpetrator came away with a community sentence.

"When you target a mosque, you are targeting the whole community."...

The Association of Chief Police Officers (Acpo) has previously said 71 incidents were reported to its national community tension team (NCTT) over five days after Fusilier Rigby was murdered on May 22.

“The police service is committed to reducing the harm caused by hate crime and it is vital that we encourage more victims who suffer crimes to report them to the police or through third party reporting facilities such as Tell Mama,” Superintendent Paul Giannasi, Acpo’s spokesman on hate crime, said.

 
Meanwhile.........Syria's Graphic Beheading Videos (Front Page Magazine)

Based on a widely circulated video and statements from the Vatican, it was believed that Fr. Francois Murad, a Catholic Syrian priest, was recently beheaded in Syria. It was not long before others "vigorously denied" the story, saying that the Christian priest was actually shot dead. And now that's fast become the "big" news. For example, according to the Telegraph, "The footage, said to show Father Francois Murad, 49, as the victim in a brutal summary execution by foreign jihadists is likely to be an older video that bares no relation to the death of the Catholic priest. Father Murad 'died when he was shot inside his church' in the northern Syrian Christian village of Ghassaniyeh on June 23, three separate local sources, who did not wish to be named, told the Telegraph."
 
So apparently that makes it better? That seems to be the Telegraph's take, for it continues: "Claims that Father Murad was one of two men to be decapitated by a foreign jihadist group went viral, with outrage expressed in blogs and articles worldwide."
 
So now that he wasn't beheaded, only shot dead inside his church, there's no longer any call for "outrage"?
 
At any rate, welcome to the "distraction" tactic being exploited by the many elements trying to minimize the atrocities being committed by the jihadis—also known as the "Free Syrian Army" (FSA)—in Syria. Supporters of these jihadis exploit the fact that, in a time of war, as currently in Syria, news is not always reliable. They also claim that any news that portrays the Syrian government as the "good guys"—such as nonstop videos of the FSA committing atrocities—is just pro-Assad propaganda, that cannot be trusted (they never seem to see the flipside to this logic, that Western media can be disseminating false anti-Assad propaganda).
 
Thus, let's not focus too much on the exact particulars—for indeed, exact information is not always clear—and rather acknowledge the big picture: namely that beheadings have become very common in Syria, even if we don't always know the identities of those beheaded. But we do know who are doing the beheadings: al-Qaeda linked jihadis who are trying to transform Syria into a Sharia-ruling emirate.
 
Consider the video which some are now saying was not Fr. Murad—who was only shot (whew!) Whoever the men being beheaded are, what you are witnessing is the true face of the Syria "rebellion"—jihadis, most of them obviously foreigners. The ring leader appears perhaps Chechnyan, and can hardly speak proper Arabic (but one of the few phrases that he utters that is understandable is "we are enforcing the rules of Allah"). The bound men are then beheaded to wild cries of "Allahu Akbar!"
 
To appreciate the frequency of such beheadings, do a quick YouTube search with words like "Syria" and "beheadings," and you will see any number of graphic videos of Syrians being beheaded by U.S.-backed jihadis. These are the videos that have still not been identified and removed by YouTube, but which likely soon will. Before them, there were many others that are now gone.
Among some of the ones currently up, are:

A video of reportedly a Syrian policeman, having his head sliced off, to screams of Allahu Akbar; his head is then picked up and chucked to the ground.
A video of reportedly a Muslim apostate to Christianity, either in Tunisia or Syria, also having his head sheared off to screams of Allahu Akbar.
A video of a child, prodded by the Free Syrian Army, cutting the heads off of Syrian men for apparently being loyal to the Assad government.
A video of the FSA making another child hack a man's head off—again, to cries of Allahu Akbar.
A video of the FSA tormenting and humiliating an obviously mentally-handicapped man, torturing another man, and at the very end beheading a third man—to cries of Allahu Akbar.

While strictly not a beheading video, let's also not forget the video of an FSA fighter cutting out and biting into the heart of a dead soldier—the same video Russian president Putin rightly shamed the pr0-FSA West with. Before biting into the organs of his foe, the cannibalistic jihadi declares, "I swear to Allah, soldiers of Bashar, you dogs—we will eat your heart and livers! Allahu Akbar!"
 
So what's to be learned by all this savage carnage, beheadings, cannibalism and what not? Those who wish to distract will insist that we cannot be sure of all the facts and circumstances—the identity of the executioners, the identity of the victims, the exact context, etc. They will nitpick and lose sight of the big picture. Hence the debate on whether Fr. Murad was beheaded or shot (incidentally, here's a video of a man executed by jihadis in Syria by gunfire—again, to screams of "Allahu Akbar"; it's not a whole lot better than the beheadings).
 
Even so, there is one thing we can be absolutely sure about—and it's perhaps the most significant and existentialist point of these barbaric beheadings: they are all done in the name of the god of Islam; they are all accompanied by cries of distinctly Islamic slogans, most prominently, Allahu Akbar.
This speaks volumes, or at least it should. Even Muslims raping Coptic Christian girls, as in this video, shout this most distinctive of Islamic cries, first uttered by Islam's prophet himself when attacking non-Muslims.
 
To understand the significance of all this, consider if Christian groups around the world started beheading people while screaming things like "In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit." What would that say about Christianity?
What does it say about Islam?
 
Hence the true lesson of Syria's beheading videos.
