After London, now the Egyptian tourist resort of Sharm El-Sheikh. Evil continues its rampage around the globe. Yet more innocents are slaughtered on the altar of hate. Where next, people ask.
This is not the first such atrocity in Egypt. The 1996 attack on Greek tourists in Cairo, which left 18 dead; the September 1997 killing of nine German tourists outside the Egyptian Museum in Cairo and two months later the devastating massacres of 58 tourists in the Valley of the Kings; last years bombs in the Sinai resorts of Taba leaving 34 dead; the deadly bomb last April at the Khan Al-Khalili souk in Old Cairo, another tourist haunt. All were carried out by militants intent on destroying Egypts tourist industry, Egypts livelihood.
Yesterdays barbarity follows a pattern a pattern of pure evil, so evil that most people find it difficult to believe that human beings could do such things.
How can anyone justify the killing of innocents? No. religion condones it. Yet that is what the militants do. What is that justification to target Egyptian workers at a downtown cafe? Why did they merit death?
Most of those killed yesterday were Egyptians. It is impossible to fathom the terrorists warped thinking, but they clearly think that ordinary Egyptians, like ordinary Londoners, are disposable.
Theirs is not just a war against the Egyptian economy and government, it is a war against the entire Egyptian people, as it is against all the people of Britain, of Spain, of Lebanon, of Iraq, of Indonesia, of the US of everywhere. The terrorist is at war with the entire world.
It is not enough to hunt down and destroy these men of evil. The thinking that drives them must also be destroyed. That puts a special responsibility on decent human beings everywhere. These fanatics claim to act in the name of Islam. That has to be shown to be a lie.
Their vision of the faith is so warped, so twisted, that it has nothing to do with Islam. They pollute it, they make it feared, even hated elsewhere in the world, they bring shame and humiliation to the faithful. They have departed from Islam. Muslims here and elsewhere must tell the world, not just once but again and again, every time the fanatics attack, that they have nothing to do with Islam, that they have been cast out.
Until the message gets through the world, Islamophobia will continue to grow. Until it gets through to the fanatics themselves, unless they realize they are damned, the slaughter of the innocents will continue.
No major city in the world will be spared not in the West, not in the Muslim world, not anywhere. In their minds, we are all disposable, we are all potential victims of their all-encompassing hate.
Is this printed in Arabic as well? Or is it only in English?
The thinking that drives them comes directly from Islam's holy book! Islam must be destroyed.
Good question!
The Final Crusade, the glassification of the Holy Shrines can not be discussed ever. Thoughts of a final crusade are very disturbing to the mainstream of Islam.
Can we really ever control what people think?
Didn't Dave Foley decide to become 'pure evil' in an episode of Newsradio?
WW3.
(and please don't argue semantics)
The thinking that drives them comes directly from Islam's holy book! Islam must be destroyed.

Anyone who thinks our fight is not a holy war, is living a lie, a deadly lie. A war against a radical cult mentality that was spawned from the Koran, which itself was written to justify a war of carnage against anyone who was not signed up as a faithful cult member...

"...the killing of innocents? No. religion condones it"
right.
got it.
that means I don't have to become a muslim, right?
freekin transparent propaganda!
If you read Arabic, certainly you are free to visit the site and translate it to make sure. Or whatever. I'm hopeful that it posted in Arabic was but not certain.
That is a very good question.
It would seem that either Muslims believe this is what the Koran teaches or it's time to reform; If it can't be reformed...it's time to leave and find something greater.
If it were a question of translation you could discuss...there's not much discussion when Muslims who feel it is a religion of peace claim to be unable to speak cause it brands them as infidel as well.
Either Muslims have to handle their house or we will.
I wouldn't want to be a Muslim right now.
Check MEMRI
No. Islamoscentia will continue to grow. The basic tenets of either killing, making into slaves or coercing into paying blackmail for the infidels' lives is the same today as from the foundation of Islam. The fanatics now have techbnological power and international financing to promote their Satanic evil worldwide.
Glassification is a very good idea.
This crocodile tear article is BS.
You mean the Joooooooooooz and the Crusaders didn't do this?

True - and that is why, in spite of all the denials of pandering politicians, we are in A WORLD WAR against Islam. Nothing less.
