Were the Murderers Murdered?
By Barbara Stock (07/21/05)
The British authorities investigating the London terrorist bombing have put forth an intriguing theory. Did the four young Muslim men know they were destined to become suicide bombers?
These young men had gone to Pakistan to “study” Islam. What they got tangled up in was Islam in its purest form—murderous and radical.
It doesn’t seem to take much influence from the experts in death to convince peaceful and law-abiding people to become mass murderers for Islam. But convincing the new father of an eight month old baby to die for Islam? That might take a little more time. An 18-year-old boy with his whole life ahead of him might not be so eager to blow himself to the promised paradise with the 72 virgins. A western-born Muslim might be just a little skeptical.
Anyone who understands the warlike side of Islam knows that killing for Allah and Islam is expected by radical Mullahs and Imams. But dying for Islam is for the gullible fools the Islamic leaders can convince that blowing their bodies to bits is a wonderful way to end their lives. The line between a peaceful Muslim and a militant Muslim seems to grow thinner with each passing day.
However, that is not how the mass murderers such as Bin Laden or Mullah Omar intend to end their lives. They know that all the hype is a lie. Yassar Arafat ran screaming for international help if he suspected that Israel had a bomb with his name on it. One brave terrorist leader in Iraq wore a suicide belt day and night and told his loyal and admiring followers that he would blow himself up before being captured by infidels. Full of bravado when faced with arrest, he surrendered with a whimper, suicide belt intact. The terrorist who boasts of his own courage and willingness to die for Allah, often turns into a spineless wimp when faced with his own death.
Saddam Hussein is a perfect example of one who watched others suffer horrible deaths while he laughed, amused by their agony. But when it was his turn, Saddam sought refuge in a hole in the ground like a rodent and even though he had a gun, he surrendered without firing a shot.
I recall General George Patton making the statement that no one ever won a war by dying for his country. Patton stated that wars were won by having the “other dumb son-of-a-bitch die for his country.” It seems that perverted Islam has embraced this idea with a suicidal twist.
The radical leaders of Islam convince Islamic youths to die for them while making the other “son-of-a-bitch” die. The only life that matters to these brave terrorist leaders is their own. These armchair terrorists need martyrs for Islam and have no intention of joining the “Martyrdom Club” themselves.
Brave at a distance, these Islamic terrorist leaders very easily could have convinced those young men to kill for Islam. Killing for Islam would prove these young men’s worth and please Allah. However, any young Islamic who hesitates in volunteering his life for Allah is considered weak. Those Islamic leaders who preach death and hate give no quarter for weakness.
It is very possible that those four unfortunate and mislead young men became expendable because they did not wish to die. Don’t misunderstand. If someone is planning on committing mass murder and gets killed in the process, there should be no pity for him. Those men got what they wrought. But did they get what they expected? Time will tell.
Perhaps the problem that the murderous arm of Islam is discovering is that it is not so easy to find true idiots among western Muslims. There are many western Muslims who talk big and support the violence and the killing, but die themselves? It is doubtful that becoming homicide bombers is in their long-range plans. No, let some other mind-numbed Islamic robot die for Islam. These Islamic cheerleaders will praise the martyr’s glorious deaths over dinner at a fine restaurant.
Basically, the only life these “cheerleaders” care about is their life and the lives of their own families. All other life is worthless. These brave Islamics will clap their hands and post the pictures of the now deceased martyrs and praise them to Allah. Radical Islamics will tell others that now those brave Islamic martyrs are in paradise being hand-fed grapes by an endless parade of beautiful virgins. It should pointed out that the size of the paradise and number of virgins is directly related to how many infidels die with the exploding martyr. Apparently, Allah has a limited supply of virgins.
Any Muslims who hesitate because Islam teaches that suicide and murder are sins, are told that Allah has taught them that dying and killing in defense of Islam is not just expected, it is an honor. Allah will reward them. Potential martyrs are told by the Mullahs to forget that murder and suicide is a sin clause. Allah didn’t mean that when speaking of defending Islam from evil infidels. To justify the killing of fellow Muslims, peaceful Muslims are given the label of “infidel” because they have declined the offer to kill and die for Islam.
Perhaps radical Islamic leaders have some kind of a contest going on. Planning the mass murder of children must be exhausting. Finding morons to carry out the dastardly deed must be a 24/7 job. Even terrorists need a vacation. What if they have a deal going on where the Islamic leader who has convinced the youngest Muslim to kill for Islam wins a trip to the Bahamas? Extra points are scored if the weak and expendable bomb carrier is blown up in the process.
Blowing up unsuspecting civilians is easy. Killing another human being has become routine for radical Islamics. But convincing a peaceful man to kill an innocent child is hard. Convincing him to kill himself in the process requires a genius in mind control.
Sadly, Islam seems to have an endless supply of cannon fodder for its cause. In some small way, there should be a certain amount of pity for these easily swayed Muslims. These Islamic martyrs are reminiscent of a dog that is so exited to please his owner by fetching a stick that it doesn’t notice that the stick is a lit stick of dynamite. How baffled the dog must be to turn around and find his beloved owner running the other way. His confusion is compounded when the promised dog-heaven isn’t all it was cracked up to be. But, dead is dead and there is no do-over.
Maybe more Muslims should give their actions a second and third thought. Hell isn’t half full and it never will be. The smell of brimstone in the last second of life can’t be a good sign.
