Muslim soldiers are killing their Christian comrades in arms—apparently because the latter, as “infidels,” are already the enemy. Most recently, in Nigeria, a Muslim colonel stole weapons from an armory and then blamed the 12 soldiers on duty for the theft. Six of those 12 soldiers—all Christians—were then executed. According to a lawyer acquainted with the case:
The [Nigerian] government of today detests Christianity... This administration is running on ethnic agenda against the Igbo [Christian] population.... This has never been a practice in the Army. Things got changed the moment this present administration [of Muhammadu Buhari] came to power. Things are happening before that didn't happen. It's not only about these six soldiers.... Even in the security forces, Christians are being targeted.
The Feb. 4 report elaborates:
Many Nigerians now believe the Army fights for Islam, not Nigeria... In the country's predominately Christian south, people call it 'Boko Haram's Army.' Muslims hold all the most important leadership positions. The Army's lack of action to protect Christians comes directly from its leaders in government... When troops go into areas controlled by radical Islamists to defend Nigerian Christians, the government orders them to retreat. Then, Islamist rebels shoot them in the back.
The phenomenon of Muslim military men murdering their Christian counterparts—and getting away with it—is hardly limited to Nigeria. In 2018, for instance, Matthew Samir Habib, a 22-year-old Christian in Egypt’s military was killed simply for being Christian. He was the latest of about 10 Christian soldiers in Egypt to be killed in separate incidents over the years by Muslim soldiers on account of their faith.
In virtually all of these cases, a similar pattern follows: despite all the evidence otherwise (such as physical bruises all over the bodies of the slain), military officials insist that—due to some sudden and inexplicable bout of depression—all these Christians supposedly committed “suicide.” Meanwhile the dead Christian soldiers’ families and those closest to them insist their slain sons and brothers were happy and healthy, that they were observant Christians, and that there was evidence that they were being persecuted by their Muslim “brothers-in-arms” for their evident Christianity.
For example, in the aforementioned case of Matthew Habib, the murdered Christian was shot twice—and still authorities maintain it was suicide. (Click here for several more examples of military authorities offering bizarre reasons for the deaths, all rejected by the victims’ Christian families.)
Why these Christians are being killed is not difficult to comprehend. For many Muslims in Egypt, Nigeria, and elsewhere, war is synonymous with jihad—and it doesn’t do much for morale to have lowly infidels, who are themselves the prime targets of jihad, fighting alongside the practitioners of jihad.
These modern day killings shed further light on a more theoretical—or rather theological—point. One of the staples of the Islamic whitewashing industry is the claim that jizya—the extortion money subjugated Jews and Christians were/are required to pay (Koran 9:29)—actually “entitled them to Muslim protection from outside aggression and exempted them from military service,” to quote Georgetown University’s John Esposito.
By this widely held logic, Muslim invaders did not demand that the conquered non-Muslim populations ransom their lives with money—as virtually all Muslim jurists and historians explain it—but rather were kind enough to offer their infidel subjects “protection” and exemption from military service for a small fee.
However, and as the modern day killings of Christian soldiers makes clear, Christians and Jews were “exempt” from military service not because they paid jizya-tribute, but because, as conquered infidels, they themselves were the enemy and had to remain separate and subjugated—as Christian minorities in Muslim nations tend to till this day. (As one example, requests to open or renovate churches are always met with mass violence and upheavals, often enabled if not instigated by local Muslim authorities: as infidels, Christians are not allowed to build or renovate temples of worship that openly challenge the teachings of Muhammad.)
Apologists like Esposito twist the facts around in another important way: while payment of jizya did indeed purchase “protection” (of a sort) for the conquered infidels, that protection was not against an outside hostile force, but against inside hostile forces—that is, Muslims themselves: sharia manuals make clear that failure to pay jizya made the lives of dhimmis forfeit.
Finally, and as if all the above was not enough, that the Koran itself requires conquered non-Muslims “to give the jizya willingly while they are humbled” (9:29)—or else—puts to rest any claim that payment of jizya was a mere business transaction justifying exemption from military duty but rather a ritual show of Islamic dominance over infidels.
From here one may also begin to understand the roots of a related phenomenon: Muslim soldiers killing non-Muslim soldiers in the U.S. military, as a show of loyalty to Islam.
have there been any incidents in the US armed forces??
Pay the jizya in lead, munitions and ordinance. There’s more than enough for all the jihadis.
The Obama administration worked hard to put the current Nigerian power structure in place.
They were successful. Even a Trump-hater knows what happened.
The Fort Hood shooting wasn’t about the jizya but it was about what he understood meant being an ethical Muslim as backed by widely available literature published by Muslims for Muslims. The subsequent reports whitewashed that pretty much out of mention.
Other than Nidal Hasan who killed 13 and wounded 30 fellow soldiers in 2009, none that were reported.
have there been any incidents in the US armed forces??The 2009 Fort Hood shooting comes to mind. But it didn't hurt our diversity so all is OK, right?
There are 68 passages in the koran encouraging a muslim to lie, cheat, steal from and kill the infidel.

Agt Hasan Akbar killed two officers and wounded 14 other soldiers, Kuwait, 2003.
Supposed to be Sgt not Agt.
The Fort Hood shooting was 100% about Islam but not really the jizya.
If you’ve never seen them, or not seen them recently, Stephen Coughlin’s series on Islam, jihad and the response by the West is very worthwhile.
His wisdom point is that we can avoid getting into useless discussions about what is the real Islam and instead focus of what widely available books on sale in Islamic bookstores , books that are written by Muslims for Muslims to teach them how to be good Muslims and which some with, in at least the Sunni world, the highest bling of Islamic scholarly blessing.

Yes, it’s a lot ... but it has a lot of information to help anyone understand what is going on.
His Red Pill briefings are similar.
And importantly those passages abrogate, annul, the earlier so-called peaceful teachings.
If you don’t have Stephen Coughlin’s lecture on this very topic in your links I provide some links in my post #13 in this thread.
Hasan K. Akbar
—
Yeah forgot about him.
“have there been any incidents in the US armed forces??”
Sure have.
L
The poster I was replying to asked if there were any killings by muslims in the US military. Two so far with Hasan K. Akbar.
Jizya was not mentioned by the poster, and makes little difference to the victims under which Islamic ‘theology’ they are murdered.
Forget those books and go to the horse’s mouth - read the 5 holy books: the koran and the interpretive books necessary to understand the koran - Talibari, Muslim, Isaq and Bukhari. This is all the information any one needs to understand Islam.
Prophet of Doom
Prophet of Doom is the best-documented, most comprehensive, presentation of Islam’s five oldest and most reliable scriptural sources. Ishaq’s Biography of Muhammad, Tabari’s History of Islam, and Bukhari’s and Muslim’s Hadith, were used to reorder the Qur’an chronologically and to set its surahs into the context of Muhammad’s life.
prophetofdoom.net
There are also excellent histories on the Islamic conquests for Medina to Mecca, to all of North Africa, to the ME, to India, and into Europe; these are necessary to understand just how strong the push of forces conversion has been over time.
Also people need to understand that like today, Islam aims to destroy all things not mentioned in the koran; historically Islam destroyed both Classical Western Civilization and Classical Christianity; when one reads that such and such a work form antiquity is lost, it is lost because it was not among the works chosen by various muslims to survive - the rest they destroyed.
If you rely on muslim writings on the koran, the chances are nearly 100% that you will encounter a lie or many lies about the meaning, nature, and origin of the cult. One clue you are being lied to is the mention of Jerusalem’s Temple Mount as the place where Mohammad “ascended”.
A short cut can be found in reading Mein Kampf which is based on the totality of Islam.
Sunni Islam wants to convert and conquer the world, returning it to the 7th century;
Shiia Islam 12ers (the ruling Iranian mad mullahs) what to bring the 12th imam out of the well he climbed into in the 7th Century - who will then lead his forces to bring the entire human race to paradise, aka human extinction.
I still recommend Coughlin’s presentations.
