New Jihad video - infidels beware

[bigwave]

A new English-language propaganda video released on Tuesday, purportedly from the Islamic State’s Al-Hayat Media Center, claims that for all their military skill and superior technology, Western troops are weaker than jihadis.

America is portrayed as exhausted and demoralized from wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, while ISIS fighters “haunt the mind of your soldiers and sew fear into their hearts.”

The video, which employs flashy graphics and a voice-over that sounds like the ranting of a video game super-villain, boasts about the size of the Islamic State’s khilafah (caliphate), which is already larger than Britain.

The “prophetic methodology” of this caliphate, “striving to follow the Koran and sura,” is supposedly far superior to Western states “built on man-made rules,” with armies that fight for “the interests of legislators, liars, fornicators, and corporations, and for the freedoms of sodomites.” The camera pans to various presidents during this rant, lingering on George W. Bush for the word “liars” and Bill Clinton for “fornicators.”

“We are men honored with Islam, who climb its peaks to perform jihad, answering the call to unite under one flag. This is the source of our glory: our obedience to our Lord,” declares the narrator.

The video portrays ISIS’ mania for destroying ancient historical sites and artifacts as a noble crusade to “stomp the idols of nationalism,” because “there is no honor to be found in the remnants of shirk and nationalism.” Shirk is the Islamic term for idolatry.

The presentation goes on to portray strict adherence to Islamic law as the cure for racial divisions. “Justice is served with the establishment of the Islamic courts,” says the narrator, while the screen displays a book of sharia law. He boasts about the large number of schools ISIS has established so its children – “cubs and pearls” – can study sharia and “share in the great rewards of expanding this khilafah.”

“America, you claim to have the greatest army history has known,” the narrator taunts. “You may have the numbers and weapons, but your soldiers lack the will and resolve, still scarred from their defeats in Afghanistan and Iraq. They return dead, or suicidal, with over 6.500 of them killing themselves each year.”

The video then alludes to the scandal over cooked intelligence reports currently rocking the Obama White House, which has been accused of falsifying intelligence to make Obama’s anti-ISIS strategy look more successful.

There are also taunts about the Americans being too cowardly to fight them on the ground, instead attacking from the safety of the skies with extremely expensive missiles. Jihadis, on the other hand, are said to prefer “fifty-cent bullets.”

The international alliance against ISIS is described as a “coalition of devils” that now includes Iran, Turkey, and Russia. This might not have been the best moment to assert that Turkey and Russia are partners in a coalition.

The video says this coalition formed because the kufat (infidels) will “always unite to fight the truth.”

“So bring it on, all of you,” the narrator sneers, expressing the hope that the number of nations aligned against ISIS will reach the magic number foretold in Islamic prophecy, at which point “the flames of war will finally burn you on the hills of Dabiq.”  Dabiq is also the name of the Islamic State’s magazine. The notion of an apocalyptic battle between infidels and Muslims in that region of Syria is a major component of their ideology.

The video ends with the assertion that Allah is the ally of ISIS, and a quote from the Koran that boils down to “come at me, bro.”  The video makers do not seem to agree that Islam is a religion of total peace and serene tolerance, or that jihad is basically a vigorous form of yoga.

I could not get the vedio to come over but you can watch the 4 minutes at:

God is to us a God of deliverances; and to God the Lord belong escapes from death. (Ps 68:20)

 

Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of His might.  Put on the full armor of God, that you may be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil.  For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly realm (spiritual regions-nelg). Therefore, take up the full armor of God, that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. Stand firm therefore, having girded you loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; in addition to all, taking up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming missiles of the evil one.  And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. With all prayer and petition pray at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints . . . (Ep 6:10-18)  

 

And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, and the did not love their life even to death.  For this reason rejoice, O heavens and you who dwell in them.  Woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has only a short time  (Rev 12:11-12).

 

Saints or children of God are always victorious even if we loose our physical life.  Saints do not fear the dark voices of defiance and human pride.  The ranting of Radical Islam is nothing more than the words of satanic forces who have but a very short time in earth's history.  These words are only limited to the physical world.  

The way to victory over the forces of evil is our faithfulness to the Lord.  Then it does not matter what prideful boasting from the heart of evil men are pronounced against us; saints are still victorious.   PAYBACK IS NOT IN THIS WORLD, IT IS IN THE WORLD WHERE JUDGMENT AND TORMENT ARE ETERNAL.  

STAY FAITHFUL TO GOD!!!!  FINAL AND ETERNAL VICTORY IS ON IT'S WAY!!!

ISIS Mocks The World In Slick Video

Yota you da man!

the one thing the video does mention which is actually correct and probably did lay the seed for all the discontent in the area was the Skyes-Picot Agreement of 1915, which basically gave Syria back to the French once the Ottoman-Turks were defeated. It is considered by many a stab-in-the-back to all the Arabs who supported the war effort of the Allies  (especially  the British who did most of the fighting in the region and were beaten repeatedly by the German-lead Turkish army) and help establish the House of Saud and other less-than-popular governments in the area. Provided they supported western nations and their land grab in the middle-east, they were given a free-pass over large areas of land which the local population really had no say in. It established the Palestine Mandate thru the Balfor Agreement (1917, I think) which set-up the ground work for the influx of Zionist into the region. Interesting side-note: The US was begged to join into the talks to support Arab independence. America was consider the anti-western answer to the annexations facing the Arab people. So many of the educated Arabs felt the US could influence its allies after WW I, to demand self-determination (part of Wilson's 14 Points) and leave the people alone to their own fate. However, neutrality and isolationism dominated the landscape and America told them to "figure it out". They didn't want to get involved in what they considered a "European problem". So sad to think, if only America DID step in and lean on its allies, how much the situation MIGHT have changed. Good post, Yota.
