U.S. Airmen, Marines, Sailors being taught about Ramadan – but not reality of the “MONTH OF JIHAD”

[the_ad id=”90513″]

The military is telling our soldiers useless information that does nothing to equip them to counter the jihad threat, or to understand why that threat increases during Ramadan. This is criminal. It ought to have stopped when Trump became President, but it looks increasingly as if he has been defeated and co-opted.

“U.S. Airmen, Marines, Sailors being taught about Ramadan – but not reality of the ‘month of jihad,’” Creeping Sharia, May 20, 2017 (thanks to Marsha):

Ramadan is known as the month of jihad. It’s when violence by Muslims explodes – no pun intended – each year. Yet U.S. military members are being force fed the mundane aspects of Ramadan that are only informative in that when non-Muslims abide by the sharia during Ramadan – Muslims will wage jihad against them.

407th Air Expeditionary Group

Airmen, Marines, Sailors and coalition partners co-located with the 407th Air Expeditionary Group, gathered May 10 to learn more about the history and culture of the upcoming month of Ramadan.

The 407th AEG chaplain’s office organized the event, hosting two guest speakers, who shared their religion, culture and experience with the uniformed audience.

“Ramadan is a very important part of our religion and culture,” said Bana Azizi, one of the volunteer presenters. “It is a time of sacrifice but also of spiritual (focus) and charity. It is a beautiful time.”

Ramadan is considered to be a “month of blessing” and commemorates the occasion of Allah calling on Muhammad as he journeyed through the desert of modern day Saudi Arabia, near Mecca, revealing the first verses of what would later become the Quran.

This year, in the lunar calendar used by many Muslims, Ramadan 2017 will begin in the evening of May 26 and ends in the evening of Saturday, June 24, although dates and observance may vary depending on location and orientation of faith.

Ramadan marks the most important time of the year for Muslims, who are required by their faith to fast during daylight hours. This fast is part of the five pillars of Islam along with shahada (confession of faith), salat (prayer), zakat (almsgiving) and hajj (the pilgrimage to Mecca).

During the night, however, the faithful break their fast as they partake in meals with family and friends. These occasions then culminate in Eid-al-Fitr, the festival that ends Ramadan in a much-anticipated celebration.

Ramadan is not only about denial throughout the day, said Chaplain (Capt) Rob Pitts, the 407th AEG chaplain. It also emphasizes loving ones neighbors through nightly meals and charitable giving.

“Ramadan is a good reminder for Muslims and non-Muslims alike to strengthen one’s relationships,” Pitts said. “For some, the relationship with God and relationships with others are keys to spiritual fitness.”

Much like the dates for the month may vary slightly, the briefers explained not all Muslims celebrate Ramadan exactly alike. From subtle changes of when to break the fast to other variations – the holy month is celebrated by believers in their own way in an effort to honor their relationship to God.

“There is great power in understanding people’s diverse backgrounds,” Pitts said. “Many of us may not practice Islam, so this was a great opportunity for us to build bridges of understanding and awareness.

“Not everyone is alike,” Pitts continued. “We all have different backgrounds and stories to share. But when we come together to accomplish the mission, in a unity of effort, that diversity brings a lot of strength to the table.”…

The only thing military personnel need to know, or would be of any use, to them, about ramadan, is that the criminal insanity of islam is much more virulent during ramadan, in essence, shoot first, muslims’s can finish their prayers in the hell of islam.

This is the military practicing their ‘smart warfare’ doctrine wherein they flatter and praise ‘good muslims’ so that they will help us fight the ‘bad muslims’. The senior officers truly believe this stuff. The full weight of the UCMJ will fall upon anyone who undermines the ‘coalition’.

To hell with UCMJ. We have seen how well it does not work. Soldiers being charged with everything from murder to rape to theft to destroying religious articles (quran)…. under misguided pretensesp
ROE being flaunted as a Soldier’s honor or good deed, when in fact it really prescribes a reactionary approach to battlefield engagements.
Everybody talks about islam, its history and reasoning, but, unless you have confronted islam face to face, you have no clue except what you read, hear, and think……..

Something to do while waiting for muslims to blow something up, this must be an app for a smartphone.

Given the First Amendment’s guarantee of freedom of religion, it is OK to accommodate the raghead faith. It would just be a welcome switch if they were willing to accommodate ours as well.

If the puppets in the Pentagon still exist and being coerced by politicians, then voting for trump was no different than voting for Clinton.

Plain and simple.

As a career and now retired American Soldier (1981-2007) and veteran of war and peace, I take pride in knowing my enemy, studying my enemy, and defeating my enemy. Islam is not just a Soldier’s enemy, but the enemy to all life forms. To be told how, why, when, where, and how to fight my enemy based on religious responsibility and respect is both coddling and dishonorable.

Ramadan NEVER stopped the attacks against us. Ramadan was a period of “let them be” and “do as they please”. The one thing that sticks with me to this day, is that islam and its muslim caricatures cannot be trusted, period. Islam is not about honor, but cowardice.

If Trump’s Pentagon pursues the same belief in Islam by virtue of the same bleeding heart approach, then he is no different than clinton, obama, and islam itself in fact, worse, because he lead me to believe he would not pursue the same approach and let the military train to defeat islam as it is, a filthy, cowardly, anti-nonmuslim, comic book adhering (quran), child raping, murdering, manipulative, lying, stealing, religion based on the thoughts of a homosexual prophet, mohammed…………

Leave the U.S. Army training doctrine to the Soldiers and keep the political and armchair generals out of it and let the Soldiers destroy islam on their schedule, their way, on their time, and in a manner not affiliated with “kissing a muslim’s ass”…..

Obama usurped the presidency and fired key military leadership. Even leaders who were on the field of battle.
He replaced them with leftist activists who began an unprecedented restructure of SOP and a reconditioning of soldiers which continues to this day, and is getting worse.
Soldiers are brainwashed to be anti-Christ, anti-Constitution and non-nationalists(anti-patriot).
They’re being taught that international law, written by leftists, socialists, communists and muslim terrorist leaders, supersedes U.S law and tradition.
What are we gonna do about it.

Ramadan? I used to know a Lebanese Christian airline pilot. He said one day he was in a muslum state during Ramadan and saw a man beaten senseless for using a water fountain — the muslums who beat him down didn’t seem interested in finding out if the victim in question was muslum or not.
