Blaze of Glory (9/11-Disgusting, but worth reading our enemies thoughts)

Crawling in and out of the swinging door of consciousness, the Muslim Ummah finds herself torn. Nearly ten months ago, the World was witness to a momentous attack against the greatest Empire of modern times. On September 11, 2001, a little past nine in the morning, time stood still. In a brief moment, the United States of America suffered the pain the people of Iraq and Palestine endure on a daily basis. The people stood beside the rubble, covered in dust and for a moment realised the fragility of their apparent Superpower status.

In one of the most sophisticated, well-planned attacks seen in modern times, the Twin Towers, the source of providing $5 Billion in annual aid to Israel, were destroyed. And what is often conveniently forgotten is that the third plane turned the Pentagon, the symbol for American military supremacy, into a rhombus, whilst the fourth plane was shot down by the US themselves. In barber shops, cafes, markets, everywhere people were whispering celebrations. It obviously meant that someone was upset with the United States, in fact, someone was very upset.

Rather than reflect on the motives for this attack or for the US to stop and think, "Why did this happen to us? Why did it not happen to Argentina or New Zealand or Austria?", the US decided to wipe the world clean of Islam once and for all. They began with Afghanistan, the only nation on Allah’s Earth to have established His Law on the land. Within days of the attack, without a shred of evidence, the blame was laid firmly and squarely on one man, Usama Bin Laden. The US in its arrogance demanded that Mullah Omar, the Leader of the Believers hand Usama Bin Laden over to them, or face the consequences.

Clearly George Bush has never met Mullah Omar; had he done he may have realised that the Prince of Believers fears no one but Allah, Lord of the Worlds. Mullah Omar would rather walk through a blazing fire than betray his friend and guest. Indeed, parallels may be drawn between this and that of Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) and his friend (peace and blessings be upon him): Abu Bakr As-Sideeq (may Allah be pleased with him) and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) were hiding from the Quraish in a cave on Mount Thawr. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was sleeping on the lap of Abu Bakr when something stung the foot of Abu Bakr. Abu Bakr did not yell in pain, but endured it like a man only of his stature would. The pain increased, but still he did not make a sound for fear of disturbing the sleep of his beloved friend, yet the tears were too much to hold back, and as his tears fell onto the side of the Prophet’s (pbuh) face, he awoke. In the same manner, Mullah Omar, the Mujahideen of both Al-Qaida and Taliban chose to endure the pain of 15,000lb ‘Daisy Cutter’ bombs in order to protect their friend and hold fast to the principles of their religion. Men with this courage, honour and integrity are indeed diamonds amongst the rocks. Their behaviour is simply unheard of in modern times where treachery and deceit are the norm. Will the mothers of this Ummah raise more men of this calibre?

Within 24 hours of the 11 September attack, whilst the whole Muslim World was apologising and denouncing Jihad, whilst 'Muslims' were queuing up to donate money and blood for the victims, NATO for the first time in its history, invoked Article 5 of its foundation charter declaring that the attack on the USA was an attack on all 19 member states. On September 12, 2001, the disbelieving nations showed us the meaning of unity. Meanwhile, Israel used the 5 Billion Dollars in military aid donated by the USA to step up its slaughter of the civilian Palestinian population, and due to the sanctions chiefly imposed by the USA, a child in Iraq died every 6 minutes. All while the Muslim nations lit candles of condolence for the United States of America.

When George Bush, wagging his finger, declared a Crusade and demanded that every Muslim must choose between Jihad in the Path of Allah and the American way of domination, oppression, injustice and barbarism, the Pakistani Government answered in haste selling, their Religion on Sunday September 16 2001 for ‘financial aid’ which had no real purpose other than to line the inside of their Savile Row pockets.

Tony Blair, American Ambassador to the World and part-time British Prime Minister, spent the next few weeks flying all over the Muslim World reminding the puppet Muslim Governments of their obligation to support the chief sponsor of their brutal oppressive regimes assuring them that now was the time to deal the lethal blow to Islam. With guarantees that not a single Muslim country would lift a finger to aid the Afghans, on Sunday October 7 2001, the US began carpet bombing Afghanistan: To date killing over 22,000 innocent civilians, including the fourth such attack on a wedding party in case the newly weds give birth to more 'terrorists' who will defend themselves rather than silently accept an unjust death.

US pilots were given a simple brief: Every man is a Terrorist, any women or children merely collateral damage, any house a Terrorist HQ, and any silence in desperate need of the American National Anthem. Any doubts whether this was a War against Islam were shattered after eyewitnesses found the following messages written on unexploded American bombs and missiles: "F*** Allah", "From Moses to Muhammad", "F*** you, you f***** Muslim bas*****" and "If your f***** Allah won't save you now, Jesus will." On Sunday night, a hazy broadcast made in night vision goggles allowed the world to watch the greatest modern military might turn its full arsenal against a nation ravaged by decades of War and famine all in the pursuit of obliterating Islam under the guise of the “War against Terrorism”.

Clearly George Bush has never met Mullah Omar; had he done he may have realised that the Prince of Believers fears no one but Allah, Lord of the Worlds

Then why he was hiding in caves?

the Twin Towers, the source of providing $5 Billion in annual aid to Israel, were destroyed

Here we got the islamic justification for killing innocents. They aid the enemy/oppressors indirectly and are therfor no innocents.

The Islamic Justification for Killing Non-Combatants in War

Is killing Jewish women and children forbidden?

Translated From The Arabic By Shira Gutgold
Reprinted with permission from the Jerusalem Post Column, "What the Papers Say."

(September 9) (Al-Watan, Kuwait, August 31)

Religious scholars do not dispute that Islamic law fundamentally forbids the killing of women and children in Jihad [holy war], and the evidence for it is in the Hadith [prophetic tradition] of Ibn-Umar [Vol. 4, Book 52, No. 257]: "A slain woman was found during one of the Prophet's military campaigns, and following this the prophet forbade the killing of women and children."

The scholars have also found evidence for the prohibition of killing those who are not involved in warfare in the Prophet's message to Khaled Ben-Al-Walid telling him that they shall not kill a woman or a non-fighting laborer. There are also other sources for the prohibition of killing civilians.

The scholars have excluded two cases in which the killing of civilians and women is permitted.

The first one is when they take part in the fighting, or if they witness it or are involved in complementary activities such as giving council or propagandizing. The scholars base their decision on the words of the Prophet who, when seeing the slain woman said: "She was not capable of fighting," meaning that had she been fighting, it would have been permitted to kill her.

It should be noted that in the modern age, when an army is engaged in war, non-fighters join it who are involved in complementary activities and, at times, the course of war depends mainly on them. These are, for example, activators of the army's computer systems that direct military activities, such as civilian-manufactured computer systems for directing missiles or sophisticated bombs.

They also include those who work for agencies that carry out military projects; the reserve forces responsible for summoning soldiers and preparing them for fighting, even administratively; intelligence people, and so forth.

All those mentioned fall under the category of those who fight the Muslims and therefore can be targeted and killed in war, especially on occupied Muslim lands such as Palestine.

It also ought to be noted that all Jewish women in the Zionist entity are fighters, since they are also required to serve in the army. It is common knowledge that the Zionist society is a military society, and every one of them takes part in warfare, whether as a soldier in the army, as a reservist, by paying taxes to the Jewish state and its army which kills Muslims, or by voting to put [Prime Minister Ariel] Sharon in a position to give the orders to kill [Mohammed] Al-Dura [the child killed in his father's arms in Gaza last September] and other Palestinian children.

The second case when the killing of civilians and women is permitted is when Muslims must launch a comprehensive attack against their enemies or shoot them from afar. If civilians, women or children are to be killed in such attacks - although they must not be deliberately targeted - there is no blame on those who kill them, as these things happen in wars when bombs are fired at military posts situated between residential buildings, especially when these are the posts of the occupying army situated on Muslim lands. In such incidents civilians, women, and children are unintentionally killed, but Muslims get killed as well.

Among these attacks are the martyrdom attacks that aim to kill the occupiers in order to strike terror in their hearts and force them to end their occupation and withdraw from the country of the Muslims. In these attacks some women and children are unintentionally killed, of course, but this is with full right. Places that are designated for children and frequented only by them are not to be targeted.

The prophet has shot at the people of Taif with a catapult during his siege to their town when there were women and children inside. Had he forbidden his warriors to attack them or shoot at any place where there were people who were not fighters, it would have led to the paralyzing of Jihad for the sake of Allah.

It is impossible to avoid killing civilians in a war, especially in the kind of fighting taking place in Palestine where settlements and occupied lands are side by side with Muslim areas, and therefore it suffices that they should not be intentionally targeted.

Just replace Jews with the other groups that need to be jihaded.

Fatwa on Events Following 11 September 2001 (MUST READ!)

Abu Bakr As-Sideeq (may Allah be pleased with him) and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) were hiding from the Quraish in a cave on Mount Thawr.

From History of Palestine:

One evening Mahomed, Bucheran, Aliman, and Abu Bachr, were drinking together; the latter two soon saw that Mahomed and the astrologer were strongly intoxicated, and lay stretched out in a deep and profound sleep. Abu Bachr thereupon drew the sword of Mahomed from its scabbard, cut off therewith Bucharan's head, and put the bloody sword back into its receptacle, and both then lay themselves down quietly near Mahomed to sleep. When Mahomed awoke and saw his friend lying decapitated near him, he cried out in a fury: "This terrible deed has been done by one of us three in our drunkenness!" Abu Bachr thereupon said quite unconcernedly: "Let each one draw his sword, and he whose weapon is stained with blood, must needs be the murderer!" They all drew their swords, and that of Mahomed was completely dyed with fresh blood, which proved thus clearly to his satisfaction that he had murdered his friend. He was greatly grieved at this discovery; cursed and condemned the wine which was the cause of this murder, and swore that he never would drink any more, and that also no one should do so who wishes to enter heaven. This is the cause why wine is prohibited to the Mahomedans.
