Bloodiest 2017 Ramadan in Modern History

31

As I warned.

MEMRI: The month of Ramadan, the month of fasting, has a special status as the month of religious spirituality and devotion. However, in Muslim tradition it is also perceived as a month of jihad and martyrdom, a month in which Allah grants military victories to His believers. It was during Ramadan that Muslims triumphed in many of their battles, among them the battle of Badr in 624 between supporters of Muhammad and a merchant caravan of the Quraysh tribe; the conquest of Mecca in 630 and of Andalusia in 711; the battle of Al-Zallaqa in 1086, in which Spanish Muslims defeated the Castilians near the city of Badajoz on today’s Portuguese border, and the 1973 War (called The Ramadan War).

Given the historic religious and military significance of Ramadan, Islamist and jihadi groups, and sometimes also mainstream Arab organizations and Arab media, escalate incitement to jihad and martyrdom during this month. Messages, articles and sermons that are published on the occasion of Ramadan and explain the connection between Ramadan and jihad and often stress the following themes:

-The commandment of jihad, which is of supreme importance at all times, assumes even greater importance during this holy month and gains precedence over all other commandments.

There is a close connection between fasting and jihad, for the former is jihad of the soul, aimed at restraining it from sinning, while the second is jihad against the enemies, aimed at preventing them from spreading “corruption” in the world. Moreover, fasting is a powerful means to prepare the soul for jihad, i.e., to school oneself in obedience, devotion, resilience and endurance, which are the virtues of the jihad fighter that allow him to vanquish his enemies. On Ramadan Allah grants fighters special strength, despite – or rather by virtue of – their fasting. 

-Those who gain martyrdom during the month of Ramadan are doubly rewarded in Paradise.

-During Ramadan, the Muslims are especially beholden to protect the sanctity of the Muslim holy places and keep the infidels from “desecrating” or threatening them.

Bloodiest 2017 Ramadan in Modern History

CBN, June 26, 2017:

This year’s Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting, has been one of the bloodiest in modern history.

Figures compiled by Breitbart News, show a record number of 1,627 people were murdered by Islamic terrorists during 30 days of prayer and fasting that started May 27 and ended June 24.  More than 1,800 were injured.

Those numbers are significantly higher than 2016 when 421 people were killed and 729 injured.

The attacks occurred in 29 countries in Africa, Middle East and Asia, with Iraq bearing the brunt of the attacks.

On Sunday, the first day of Eid al-Fitr, marking the end of Ramadan, thousands of Iraqis flocked to mosques in Baghdad to pray for peace.

“I pray to God that the first day of Eid will be a day of peace and security for Iraq and all Iraqis, “said Sayef al-Zaidie, a local Islamic preacher.

The end of Ramadan comes this year as Iraqi forces have been waging a fierce battle to retake Mosul, the country’s second-largest city, from Islamic State militants.

Many of those who took part in Sunday prayers hoped for victory against the Islamic militants.

“I pray to God to protect those who fighting the Islamic State group,” said Yahya Misef, a Muslim worshipper. “I also pray to God to that all the displaced will be able to go back to their homes.”

Residents in the freed areas of Mosul celebrated Eid el-Fatir free of ISIS for the first time since ISIS took over Mosul. They were relieved as anything not to have those monsters in control anymore, to be free of the murders and repression.

So even though ISIS is killing a lot of people, they are being destroyed in Iraq and Syria. I’ve seen plenty of articles about expert snipers taking out ISIS members and saving civilians.

I know jihadists won’t disappear just because ISIS loses its ‘caliphate’, that’d be wishful thinking. But it’s a step in the right direction to free those areas. It’s also a step towards freeing everyone on Earth from jihadists.

70 years before the Islamic State existed muslums in Baghdad, Iraq initiated a pogrom against the majority Jewish population there and guess what? There aren’t any Jews left in Baghdad anymore and there haven’t been any since long before the Islamic State existed.

I like how the puff piece ended w/muslum prayers — but are these prayers only for other muslums (more than likely) or do they include the kafir (doubtful)? I haven’t noticed muslums anywhere crying for the millions of Christians and Yezidi being enslaved by f’ing muslums in Mauritania, the Sudan OR the Islamic State.

Formal prayers on loudspeaker at Mecca, (RaymondIbrahim.com, 7 November 2011).

“O Allah! vanquish the unjust Christians and the criminal Jews, the unjust traitors;
strike them with your wrath; make their lives hostage to misery;
drape them with endless despair, unrelenting pain and unremitting ailment;
fill their lives with sorrow and pain and end their lives in humiliation and oppression;
inflict your tortures and punishments upon the unjust Christians and criminal Jews.
This is our supplication, Allah; grant us our request!”

That number is bullshit. This is one of the slowest Ramadans I’ve ever seen. Just a few years ago, 2013, 2014, something like that, 5,000+ people were slaughtered. During that little “war” they had with Israel a couple of years ago, 2,425 people were slaughtered during Ramadan. So, seriously, how is 1,500+ a record?

The ’73’ Yom Kippur War? It’s just too bad the Israelis recognized the cease fire the muslums clamored for when the IDF and IAF began killing them en mass. The IAF should’ve continued bombing the f’ing Egyptistan muslum scum trapped on the W. side of the Suez Canal until they ran out of ordnance.

Allah is supposed to be gracious and forgiving god of mercy. The reverse is true in that he is a killer and a monster who orders the criminal death of all non believers. Islam is not a religion it is a system for free for all rape, slavery, suppression and murder all in the name of a killer moon god. Notice that I do not give allah the satisfaction of a capital letter in his name. If there is such a god then he certainly is a crime against all humanity and to even imagine that he had any place in our creation is a hideous lie. allah means death and detruction, no more no less. Only weak minded Muslims can worship such and evil.

Hey there,Moslems ! How come your leaders never martyr themselves ? Blow themselves up.etc.? Don`t they lead by example ? Or just all mouth and no substance. Next question, why did Muhammad hide his face? So the victims couldn`t identify him for punishment ? Big brave jihadi`s,hide your faces too&even wear dress`s. Hahaha. Yes, I laugh at you and your ramadam,stupid muhammad,and false god allah whats his name.
