ISIS to Blame for Nearly Half of Ramadan-Tied Jihadist Kills in 2017

7

Of all the world’s terror groups, ISIS committed the most killings during Ramadan this year, laying claim to at least 67 different acts of terror that left about 875 individuals dead.

Another 577 or so were injured by the group, according to a database compiled by Breitbart.

And remember: ISIS is the same group labeled by Barack Obama as JV — as the junior varsity team in the varsity terror group crowd.

Here are some specifics, from Breitbart:

ISIS repeatedly called on its sympathizers and followers to carry out violent attacks during Islam’s holiest month — urging them to wage an “all-out war” on civilians in the West at the start of Ramadan.

Islamic State terrorists ended up carrying out more attacks and executing more people than any other jihadi organization.

Meanwhile, the Taliban and al-Qaeda-linked Haqqani Network was behind the deadliest attack of the holy month that left at least 150 people dead and more than 300 wounded in the Afghan capital of Kabul on May 31.

The Pentagon has deemed the Haqqani Network as the “primary threat” facing U.S.-NATO-led coalition troops in Afghanistan.

During the holy month, ISIS carried out attacks nearly every day in about all corners of the world, including the West.

Breitbart News data reveals that ISIS is behind more than 50 percent of the total 1,639 Ramadan fatalities.

Moreover, the figures show that the jihadi group is linked to at least 67 of the estimated 160 Ramadan terror incidents (nearly 40 percent), more than any other terrorist organization.

Taliban terrorists are believed to have carried out at least 15 incidents resulting in 276 deaths and 441 injuries.

Al-Qaeda, including its Somalia-based al-Shabaab affiliate, are reportedly behind at least five terror incidents that yielded 80 deaths and 43 injuries.

An estimated 66 terror attacks that left 327 dead and 379 injured were committed by jihadists that Breitbart was unable to identify and classify.

In other words: ISIS could actually be responsible for even more bloodshed.

Look at the chart, compiled and designed by Breitbart:

ISIS, more than any other terror group, was responsible for the most number of Ramadan-tied terror attacks and deaths.

Again, from Breitbart:

The total of 1,452 ISIS-linked Ramadan casualties amounts to more than 40 percent of the overall 3,343 (1,639 deaths and 1,704 injuries) that occurred during the holy month.

ISIS managed to carry out its first attack on Iranian soil during this year’s Ramadan on June 7, killing at least twelve and injuring 46 others at the Islamic Republic’s parliament and the shrine of its revolutionary leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.

It was a significant victory for ISIS, which had long been threatening to attack the Shiite powerhouse. The attack also fell on Ramadan, a time when martyrdom and jihad are especially valued.

Islamic extremist groups such as ISIS perceive Ramadan as a time when martyrdom and jihad are doubly rewarded in paradise, prompting a spike in the terrorist attacks during the period every year.

Correction muslims, without complicity of significant numbers of seemingly neutral muslims, terrorism would not flourish.

Isis is a good target because there are so many Mohammedan fundamentalist militants in one place for us to destroy, and destroying Isis could soften a few militants temporarily with that show of force and supremacy. However, the problem for the US is right here at home and the lack of comprehensive anti-Mohammedan policies supported with overwhelming pro-American, pro-western advocacy. Isis is only a symptom and easily replaced.

True. But Islam itself is to blame for all of it. I am staggered by Liberals’ refusal to educate themselves about this horrific ideology. A few hours spent on the internet, or reading a book (God forbid) will inform you, very quickly, that all of this, every bit of it, is classical Islam. There is no “radical Islam”, there is only Islam.

Every murder, every torture, every word which they speak is either mandated in the Koran, or their religious commentary—Hadith and Sunnah and much more. So then I say to myself, that if I know this, based on my reading and investigation, then surely our leaders MUST know it as well. And if they know it, then why do they INSIST on this lie that Islam is a religion of peace? Even Moslems, the world over are laughing at that depiction of their beliefs.

So what am I left with here? What’s the motive for the massive-collusion-lying from all quarters in Europe and certainly Canada? It has to be money, and I mean very BIG money, which the Gulf States have plenty of to spread around. Then it has to be about favors—like some politician’s pet project suddenly gets funded—or their kid’s college debt gets taken care of—all in exchange for telling such a little, harmless LIE, and of course, selling your countries and your civilization down the river in the process.

If anyone has any other ideas, I’ll listen. But there aren’t too many other options to consider. Cultural Jihad is moving along at an ever increasing clip and few leaders see it, or want to see it.

I laud the work of Pamela Geller, and Robert Spencer and Frank Gaffney and many others. These people are amazingly courageous. I’ll be moving my charitable giving more in their direction. I cross check just about everything they write or say, and so far I, a) cannot find anything even remotely racist in it, and b) I can’t find any lies—not even a stretching of the truth. I’m geeky enough to go check The Koran or whatever other source they refer back to. And for the Southern Poverty Law Center to defame them as racist-Islamophobes, reflects much more on the accuser than the accused—by about 100% in fact. Goodbye to SPLC. I used to be a supporter before they became psychiatrically deranged.

I better stop now.
