Interview With a Former IS Jihadist

The House has affirmed Obama's long - covertly - implemented plan to arm the 'moderate' (define!) Syrian rebels. The following is an interview with a man who thought he'd joined the FSA, but instead found himself a member of the Islamic State.

"The CIA also believes that its previous assignment to accomplish [arming rebels] was basically a fool’s errand"  

Islamic State (IS) member "Sherko Omer" would now be a dead jihadist hadn’t he surrendered to the pro-Kurdish People's Protection Units (YPG) in northeast Syria earlier this year. Journalist Rozh Ahmad met him to learn more about the experience. In this interview "Omer" explains how he left his hometown in Iraqi Kurdistan to join the Syrian opposition and eventually became an IS member, what he witnessed and the reasons for which he risked his life to exit the extremist Islamic organisation. "Sherko Omer" is a pseudonym. His real identity has been kept secret for security reasons. The views expressed are his own.

Muslim Show: Alone or the Group? (Cartoon)

Individualism is a threat to Islam. The community of the faithful has a name: the Ummah. Islam would not be able to keep it together without social pressure. The tribe prevents individuals from wandering off the village grounds under threat of death and worse. This cartoon tells the story.


Islam's anti individualism at a glance. This is one of the reasons Islam is entirely antithetical to Liberty and Western liberal democracy which is oriented on the sovereignty of the individual. H/t @BasimaFaysal

Islam At the Crossroads: War or Peace?

Islam stands at a crossroads. The Islamic State presents Muslims with an opportunity to put Islam on a peaceful footing, denounce Jihad, establishing the long awaited Reformation. The trend however is going the other way. Silent consent. They have no choice.



Sep 2, 2014: Brother Rachid addresses President Obama about the Islamic State and Islam; he explains how IS is imitating the prophet Muhammed in every detail. The Islamic State represents Islam.

Amidst all the carnage caused by Al Qaeda and Islamic State related terrorist groups, Muslims actually have the unique opportunity to cleanse their religion of all the connotations and associations with violence and cruelty. All they have to do is denounce the Islamic State and forsake the legitimacy of Jihad as a path to further the causes of the world Caliphate. The shoe however appears to be on the other foot.

Senator Marco Rubio commenting on Barack Obama's speech. The President's isolationism has made the world a much more dangerous place.

The first article presents an excellent analysis of the political and ideological situation. The second article is interesting from the historical perspective.

  • "The Jihad against America and How to End It"

by Craig Biddle 
While Islamic terrorist groups multiply and expand throughout the Middle East—beheading U.S. citizens, attacking Israelis, crucifying Christians, raping children, seizing commercial jetliners, and promising Americans, “see you in New York”—now is a good time to recount the essential nature of the problem with respect to America and to specify what the United States should do about it. (Source

The Cloward-Piven End Game Explained

Obama's foreign policy has been so successful, the Middle East has now been entirely destabilized. Sunni and Shia terror states, Jihadists and a reconstituting Russian Empire are stepping into the vacuum of the retreating Pax Americana. At home the Cloward-Piven strategy is gathering steam

Does Anyone Know Obama's Grand Strategy on IS?

Obama's leadership on the Islamic State is in a worse shambles than usual with this administration. Over the weekend the position went from 'IS as a regional menace', to 'an imminent international threat that requires war in Syria', and back again. This is not a strategy for dealing with IS.



Over the weekend Gen. Martin Dempsey did a shocking U-turn, saying ISIS is not currently plotting or planning attacks against the U.S. or Europe.

The Islamic State in Iraq and Syria cannot be defeated unless the United States or its partners take on the Sunni militants in Syria, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Martin E. Dempsey said last Thursday. 
“This is an organization that has an apocalyptic end-of-days strategic vision that will eventually have to be defeated. Can they be defeated without addressing that part of the organization that resides in Syria? The answer is no.” (Source
But on Monday Dempsey made a U-turn and said IS is no immediate threat. (Source) Actually the idea to attack IS in Syria was a major departure from the awkward contradiction of supporting IS in Syria while fighting it in Iraq. The Obama regime now appears to have returned to that position. So what is going on?
