Islamists Plan 'Kaboom' Christmas For Britain
Via LGF, British authorities are warning that a Christmas attack on London by the Religion of Peace™ is imminent:
"It is not a matter of if there will be an attack, but how bad the attack will be," an intelligence official told ABCNews.com.FrontPage magazine notes that this is not the first year jihadists have chosen the Christmas season to ratchet up their threats - which, even if they never materialize, are useful in themselves to "to strike terror into (the hearts of) the enemies" of Allah (Qur'an 8:60):
Jihadists would want to sow this terror during one of the holiest seasons of the Christian year not just to maximize the potential for terror, but to emphasize that theirs is, as they see it, a holy struggle. The suitability of Christmastime for a jihad attack is an outgrowth of the idea that, in the words of Islamic preacher Husayn Mahfooth Shu'ayb, one of "the most critical manifestations of loyalty towards the infidels" is "celebrating their religious festivals." Some Islamic clerics have even exhorted Muslims not to extend Christmas greetings to Christians, for that would be seen as an endorsement of their holiday, which they consider has no legitimacy; however, other clerics have rejected this view.
Traditionally Muslim divines have identified those who have earned Allah's anger with Jews and those who have gone astray with Christians. The Qur'anic commentator Ibn Kathir (1301-1372) explains that "these two paths are the paths of the Christians and Jews, a fact that the believer should be aware of so that he avoids them. The path of the believers is the knowledge of truth and abiding by it. In comparison, Jews abandoned practicing the religion, while the Christians lost the true knowledge. This is why 'anger' descended upon the Jews, while being described as 'led astray' is more appropriate of the Christians" (Tafsir Ibn Kathir, vol. 1, 87). Late in his life Muhammad received revelations that were among the harshest toward Jews and Christians than any that he had ever received before, including one that asserted that Jews called Ezra a son of God, just as Christians called Christ the Son of God, and declared that both groups had thereby incurred Allah's curse (Qur'an 9:30).Merry Christmas and a happy New Year, Britain, and may you - in the coming year, do a much better job of recognizing the Islamic fascist threat from within your own Muslim community, and the unwillingness of many in that community to assimilate into British society and culture, and support and strive for Islamic dominance in British society,while doing everything possible to undermine the freedoms and customs that you have so graciously provided them.
