Four Marines killed in a rampage shooting, coincidentally occurring a few weeks after another one

Why not? How is Dylan Roof's racism/white supremacy any different?

Actually, how are Roof and Abdulazeez any different? They're two pot smoking losers who couldn't hold down a job, and who had recently been arrested. They blamed others for their failures, and became radicalized by groups that gave them excuses for why they had failed, and targets/enemies who were responsible.

White supremacy radicalized Roof. Islam radicalized Abdulazeez.

 

Roof has stated, I believe, that he wanted to start a race war in the United States. That was his motive. Not just "white supremacy." It was reported as such.

 

What's Jihad's purpose?

 

I don't understand what your objection is here. I really don't. You're overplaying your hand. It was your news network that spread the word that Roof's motive was to "attack . . . faith," so I guess his motive wasn't so clear after all, even though he had, of course, announced his motive.

 

Confederate flags are down. Roof's a game-changer (at the expense of 9 slaughtered blacks).

 

So has the Chattanooga Jihadi.

He realized he was a loser. He had failed at life, and failed Allah. He felt like he was in a prison.

Jihad was the only way to redeem himself:

Abdulazeez then discussed the Sahaba — the companions of the Prophet Muhammad — and how they served their faith by bringing it to the world, sometimes through jihad.

“Did you ever notice that in one certain period towards the end of the lives of the Sahaba (RA), almost every one of the Sahaba (RA) was a political leader or an army general?” Abdulazeez wrote. “Every one of them fought Jihad for the sake of Allah. Every one of them had to make sacrifices in their lives.” (“RA” is a term of reverence meaning “May Allah be pleased with him or her.”)

Abdulazeez praised the Sahaba further.

“They were very simple in the lives that they led and they were comprehensive in their understanding of Islam and applied what they knew,” he wrote. “And that’s why they are considered to be the best generation that ever lived. After the prophets, they were the best human beings that ever lived.”

He concluded by asking Allah to help believers follow the example of the Sahaba.

“We ask Allah to make us follow their path,” Abdulazeez wrote. “To give us a complete understanding of the message of Islam, and the strength the live by this knowledge, and to know what role we need to play to establish Islam in the world.”

He wanted to be like the Sahaba, and help to establish Islam in the world.

But, hey, that's nothing at all like wanting to start a race war.

 

But he wasn't a racist then. #TSP

 

You are constantly calling out the mainstream media for sloppy reporting.

But in this one area, you always call for speculation.

 

I've been dealing with a broken A/C unit today. Just checking to see if I missed the president's news conference regarding the murder of four of his employees. Has he announced who he's bringing along to their funerals?

 

I assume the horse is America, right?

 

Haven't been dealing with a broken AM radio, though, I see.
