Frankly, these people are idiots. And they're going to be surprised when the ISIS operatives already in their country don't give a damn about their sense of ironic humour. They don't get the joke, they're not in on the joke, they don't care about the joke.
When you watch this video, don't look at the men chanting. There's nothing to learn there. Look instead at the reactions of the non-Muslim passengers trying desperately to pretend that it isn't happening... if they just ignore it enough it will go away... that it doesn't apply to them... that if they keep their heads down and don't make eye contact whatever is going to happen will happen to someone else...dear God, please just let me get back to my bubble in one piece...
What are the savages chanting?
“May Allah make orphans out of their children. May Allah make it difficult on their women. Allah give victory to Islam everywhere. Allah give victory to our brethren in Palestine. Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar… there is no god but Allah and the martyr is beloved by Allah.”
The problem I've been thinking about is nicely illustrated by this reaction of the spoiled Romans from the Breitbart piece to what they obviously see as silly threats from primitive savages from another planet. We just don't seem to believe that it could actually really happen. We've been trained to think that the world that spawned ISIS is radically separated from us. That it is, in fact, a different world - maybe one from a campy action movie starring Arnold Schwarzenegger - and they can't cross over into our real world.
We hear them chanting about how Allah will make widows and orphans and the soldiers of Allah will make those widows and orphans into slaves, we see them issuing threats against the "Crusaders" and wonder what universe they're living in. Crusaders? Seriously? Are these people living in the middle ages? We think we live in the real, modern world of science and iPhones and air conditioned offices, and simply can't picture ISIS rounding up women and nine year old girls from our neat suburban neighbourhoods in Berlin or London or Birmingham or Rome (well, maybe Rome a little more) and setting up sex slave markets in the parking lot of the local supermarket.
But that is exactly what has happened in the places they've already conquered. They have told us straight up that they're coming and intend to do here what they did there. The answer is, yes, they are still living in the Middle Ages. Stop and think about what that means for a moment. Think about what life was like for Christians in Muslim dominated lands all those centuries.
We have to start understanding that the bubble we think we live in is imaginary. The Swedes and Norwegians are slowly starting to realise this, far, far too late.
Go, right now, and look at Ann Barnhardt's post on what happens to the idiot liberal dhimmis preaching luv and tolerance for the estimated 2-3 million "Syrian refugees" suddenly and "inexplicably" flooding into Europe as I write this. Don't hold back from looking at the photos. I won't say they are for the strong of stomach. I will say that if you don't look at them, you will not be able to develop a strong enough stomach for the fight that is coming your way.

I wish it was Pope Francis instead of her.
ReplyDeleteWomen and popes should not be allowed to vote though.
ReplyDeleteWhile I accept that the increase in sexual violence in Sweden can be attributed in large part to an increase in Muslim immigration, Ephrem Johannes is a Christian, not Muslim, name.

Lydia,
ReplyDeleteThat's very true, and that struck me when I read the related articles. However, given that he was married to a Somali woman, I would think he was a Mohameddean. Substantially all Somalis are Mohameddean, and Mohameddean women can only marry Mohameddeans.

ReplyDeleteNothing is known about the perpetrator's wife, so all we can do is speculate about her religion. In some reports she is described as Ethiopian.
On the other hand, no 'self-respecting' Muslim would name his son Ephrem Yohannes as it is such a Christian name. Ehprem is particularly loved by the Oriental Orthodox.
Lydia
Lydia,
ReplyDeleteI've read she was Somali. If so, he might have converted. Of course, the wife may not be a Mohameddean, and he could be a Christian. To give Anna Barnhardt the benefit of the doubt, presumably she had some basis for her assertion re his religion.
Your underlying point is valid. Being caught out on a specific case may serve to undermine what is generally a valid assertion.

He was a Basketball-American, but thank you for reminding us all that race matters too.
