Jihadist Group Boko Haram Beheads Seven Prominent Businessmen in Nigeria
Despite protestations served up by taqiyya artists and their leftist tools, beheading is not merely confined to the Islamic State. It goes back to Muhammad and it is Islamic ritual slaughter.
“When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks” (Qur’an 47:4)
The quranic case for beheading here.
“Boko Haram Beheads 7 Prominent Businessmen in Renewed Attack,” 24/7 Report, October 7, 2014
“They did not attack everyone in Ngamdu, they just selected some top business merchants there and slaughtered them in the early hours of today (Monday, October 6, 2014).
We have also heard that they were attacking Mobbar village today also, but we have no knowledge of the casualty figures yet, even though those that managed to escape said it “was a massive attack”, stated a top ranking member of the vigilante group of Nigeria,
Chief Abba Gava who went on to reveal that the Jihadist group had beheaded seven prominent businessmen in the village of Ngamdu in Borno. The beheadings were said to resemble a targeted attack on the seven businessmen. The tribal affiliation of the business men were not readily available.
Another security source from Maiduguri who spoke to 247ureports.com indicated that the gunmen had also attacked Mobbar village on the same Monday – where unknown number of villagers were believed murdered. The attack was carried out at 4am.
Interestingly, the Jihadist group operation occurred just 100km away from Maiduguri and 35 km from the neighboring Yobe state capital Damaturu. Ngamdu is also a border town of Borno near a village in Yobe state called Kukareta, where a recently established military formation is located.
The latest attack by the Jihadist group comes after the Nigerian security forces had scored some major military victories over the Jihadist group. The Monday morning attack comes as another embarrassment to the Nigerian security unit stationed in the northern regions of Nigeria where the activities of Boko Haram have been more concentrated. Many of the top security officers have become unsettled with the strategy employed by the Nigerian defense headquarters in the war against Boko Haram.
According to a senior security officer, “We are really very sad that up till now, our commanders are not seeing it as very necessary to change from waiting to be attacked and resort to taking the battle to where ever the Boko Haram elements are”, said the top security source. It is unacceptable to hear that the Boko Haram terrorists could move freely from one point to the other; where our troops are transfixed in one spot waiting to repel them, while other parts of the states are being attacked at the same time. We just have to wake up and do the needful”.
It is recalled that on Friday morning that the security officials in Yobe banned all movement in compliance with the military order that the whole of Yobe should be locked down from 10pm of Thursday, 2nd October, to wade off possible attacks being planned by the Boko Haram terrorists during the Sallah period.

Muslims warn anti-terror laws could prevent teaching from Qur’an
Yesterday, I published the astonishing claim by the Islamic Council of Victoria leader says anti-terror classes draw youth to radical online preachers.
“Muslims warn anti-terror laws could prevent teaching from Koran,” By the Editors, Faith Freedom Org., · October 8, 2014 (thanks to Ali Sina)
Muslims acknowledge that the Quran promotes terrorism and are concerned that anti Islam laws may outlaw teaching their sacred book.
A Muslim cleric who preaches from certain passages of the Koran could be caught in the “broad” net of the government’s new anti-terror law, Islamic leaders have warned.
Grand Mufti of Australia Ibrahim Abu Mohammad and the Australian National Imams Council have called for the offence of “advocating terrorism” to be removed from the so-called Foreign Fighters Bill, currently before Parliament.
They went public with their opposition on the same day Prime Minister Tony Abbott backed the draft legislation as essential to reining in “preachers of hate”, including the radical Islamic group Hizb ut-Tahrir.
The organisation is hosting a lecture in Lakemba on Friday to denounce “the politics and plots of the American-led intervention in Iraq and Syria” and Mr Abbott has conceded that the current legal framework is not sufficient to shut the event down.The imams council said a cleric could fall foul of the new law even if he simply “advocated the duty of a Muslim to defend his land”.
“We are therefore concerned that the proposal has serious implications on free speech and will have a chilling effect on legitimate religious and political debate,” the council – representing 250 imams – said in a submission to the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security.
Appearing in front of the committee on Wednesday, members of the Muslim Legal Network said the laws, introduced by Attorney-General George Brandis, should target the extreme fringe, not mainstream Muslims.
They said any religious community could face being charged with a terror-related offence “if they refer back to stories in the Quran, Bible and Torah in their sermons”.
It is documented the al-Qaeda handlers of the 9/11 suicide pilots had urged them to dwell on passages in the Koran in which God promises to “cast terror into the hearts of those who are bent on denying the truth; strike, then, their necks!”
But some scholars have pointed out that the Old Testament is just as violent in its imagery, including Psalm 137 which threatens Babylonians that “blessed shall he be who takes your little ones and dashes them against the rocks”.
In its submission, the Islamic Council of Victoria said the new law would incriminate Muslims who support “legitimate forms of armed struggle”, including resistance to the Assad regime in Syria and the Palestinian conflict with Israel.
“The broad definition of ‘terrorism’ and the way in which it is sometimes selectively applied to such groups is problematic … [and] the power of the Attorney-General to list terrorist organisations without oversight and consistency exacerbates this problem,” it said.
“Broadening this definition to include ‘foreign incursions’ and ‘treason’ when Australia already has laws which deal with these further muddies the water on the issue of what can be considered terrorism and what should be considered legitimate resistance to oppression.
“Criminalising the act of ‘advocating terrorism’ adds another layer of complexity to this issue. The scope of what constitutes ‘advocating terrorism’ is unclear.”
The council identified what it says is a double standard in Muslims wanting to go to Syria and Iraq to provide aid having their passports cancelled “while ignoring the travel of Zionist Jews wishing to travel to Israel – a state which illegally occupies Palestinian territory with intention of fighting in a war against Gazans and has been accused of war crimes”.

India Muslim leader: “Kill the idol worshippers wherever you find them … shoot them if you can, stab them, throw stones at their heads, poison them, run them over, burn their fields – and if you are unable … spit in their faces
ByPamela Geller
on October 7, 2014
“Kill the idol worshippers wherever you find them”: where might al-Hindi have gotten that idea? Could it be from the quran? “kill the polytheists wherever you find them” (quran 9:5). But Obama say, This has nothing to do with Islam!
“Indian jihadist group calls for attacks on non Muslims,” by Rupam Jain Nair, Reuters, October 6, 2014 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
(Reuters) – A group of Indian Islamic militants, operating out of Pakistan, has called for attacks on non Muslims in the region in retaliation for U.S.-led air strikes on fighters of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.
The head of the little-known Ansar al-Tawhid fi’Bilad al-Hind urged Muslims to kill foreigners and other infidels in mainly Hindu India where Muslims have largely stayed away from global jihad.
“If you are in the fortunate position to kill an American or European, whether French or Australian or Canadian, or other unbelievers who have declared war on the Islamic State, then do so,” said Maulana Abdul Rehman al-Nadwi al-Hindi in a 30-minute video posted online last week.
Indian security analysts said that Maulana Abdul Rehman is a pseudonym for fugitive jihadist Sultan Abdul Kadir Armar, a former resident of southern India who attended an Islamist seminary before going to Pakistan.
“Kill the idol worshippers wherever you find them … shoot them if you can, stab them, throw stones at their heads, poison them, run them over, burn their fields – and if you are unable … spit in their faces,” al-Hindi said, referring to Hindus.
The emergence of a Islamic State-aligned militant group in India comes weeks after al Qaeda announced the formation of an Indian branch, aiming to rouse the world’s third largest Muslim population into action.
“There is no doubt that the radicalisation process has begun in different parts of the country. Islamic fundamentalists are seeking to indoctrinate Indian Muslims,” said Ajay Sahni, executive director of the Institute for Conflict Management in New Delhi which monitors militant groups across South Asia.
The rapid rise of the Islamic State has evoked admiration among some groups in India and the flags of the insurgent group have appeared at rallies in Indian Kashmir, the country’s only Muslim-majority state and the site of a nearly 25-year armed revolt.
The push for new jihadi recruits comes at a time of increased tension between Muslims and Hindus in India following the election of Narendra Modi as prime minister in May. Some of Modi’s Hindu nationalist followers have been stirring up communal differences.
India has long believed that its democracy provided a platform for Muslims and other minority groups to address grievances and that they didn’t have to turn to violent jihad to pursue their aims.
Modi said last month that al Qaeda would struggle to recruit members from India’s 175-million strong Muslim community and praised Muslims for their commitment to fight for the country.
Two suspected al Qaeda supporters were killed when a bomb they were making exploded in a house in the state of West Bengal on Oct. 2, police told Reuters. Police said they found documents linked to al Qaeda and Chechen rebels.

Islamic State Plots to Attack US with Ebola: Jihadists ‘to Send Infected Militants’ to America to Spread Disease
We all had complete confidence in our healthcare system …. until Obama.
We all had complete confidence in Bush-era quarantine policy until 2010, when the Obama administration withdrew updated quarantine regulations drafted by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and proposed by the Bush administration. The new rules would have required air passengers to submit more information to airlines and strengthened the government’s authority to detain travelers suspected of carrying disease.
The Obama administration refuses to impose any flight restrictions on ebola-stricken countries. British Airways joined Gulf carrier Emirates in scrapping West African routes in response to the deadly Ebola outbreak as most rival operators keep flying with heightened medical checks. What is Obama’s strategy? To overwhelm the healthcare system?
Emirates halted services to Conakry in Guinea at the weekend citing guidance from health authorities. British Airways said in a statement yesterday that it’s suspending flights to Sierra Leone and Liberia, the other states blighted by the epidemic, until Aug. 31 due to the “deteriorating public health situation.”
Among carriers with the greatest exposure to the region, Air France and Brussels Airlines – Deutsche Lufthansa’s main link there – are continuing flights while screening departing customers. Air France, which serves most West African nations, has imposed special rules for people boarding in Conakry and Freetown, capital of Sierra Leone.
“Passengers must fill in a questionnaire when entering the airport lounge,” the Paris-based carrier said in a statement. “They then have their temperature taken within the airport itself. They are only given their boarding card if no medical symptoms are present.” (more here)
So how exactly is the CDC screening for Ebola before people leave West Africa for the U.S.? What preventative measures are being taken?
Thomas Duncan, the Texas ebola patient who lied to authorities to get into the country, was so ill that he vomited uncontrollably as he waited outside his family’s apartment block for an ambulance to take him to hospital, witnesses say.
Another member of Mr Duncan’s family is now being monitored for possible symptoms of the deadly disease, as 18 of the 80 people that Mr Duncan came into contact with – including the crew of the ambulance – are held in quarantine.

The jihadists want to infect their soldiers and send them here. Brandon Darby reported:
Over 3,500 passengers from Ebola affected nations have been allowed to enter the U.S. without any special screening since January 1, 2014, according to a leaked internal intelligence report from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Office of Intelligence and Liaison exclusively obtained by Breitbart Texas. In addition, the individuals entered into at least 18 heavily populated U.S. cities across the nation.
The leaked report specifically reads, “According to CBP [Customs and Border Protection] data, since January 1, 2014 to June 30, 2014, a total of 3,566 passengers with a nexus to Guinea transited through or arrived at U.S. airports.” The term “nexus” refers to passengers who flew from the Ebola stricken nation to a second nation, and then from the second nation into the United States. Guinea is attributed as the nation of origin for the current Ebola outbreak.
The lack of any special processes or testing for individuals with a nexus to Ebola affected nations is illumined in the leaked internal report as well. It reads, “The Level 3 travel alert issued by the CDC on July 31st remains in effect as of August 13, 2014. The travel alert urges all US residents to avoid nonessential travel to Guinea. Although CBP is not doing any additional screening of passengers from the affected countries, CBP has enhanced their screening routine processes through guidance and training. Additionally, CDC is providing assistance with exit screening and communication efforts in West Africa to prevent sick travelers from boarding planes.”
The report indicates that the vast majority of the 3,566 of passengers with a nexus to the nation of origin for the current Ebola outbreak either deplaned in or traveled through New York City. Other cities include Atlanta, Chicago, Minneapolis, Seattle, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Dallas, Miami, Cincinnati, Columbus, Pittsburg, St. Louis, Indianapolis, Baltimore, Washington, D.C., Fort Lauderdale, and Cleveland.
Clearly it would not be difficult for the Islamic State to put their plan into motion.
“ISIS to Attack US with Ebola? Jihadists ‘to Send Infected Militants’ to America to Spread Disease: Reports
Conspiracy theory Further Bolstered by Reports of Direct Threat from ISIS Militants, Gopi Chandra Kharel, IB Times, October 4, 2014 (thanks to Extinction)
Reports are claiming that Islamic State militants are conspiring to infect jihadists with Ebola and send them to America.

Reports are claiming that Islamic State militants are conspiring to infect jihadists with Ebola and send them to America.Wikimedia Commons
If latest reports are to be believed, the Islamic State militants might be conspiring to deliberately infect jihadists with the deadly Ebola virus and send them to America in order to spread the disease in the US – an event that could see America being attacked in a new pseudo-war. The Israeli News Agency, a site which claims to be Israel’s first online news organization has confirmed the authenticity of the report saying it “clears all news items relating to Israeli security with the Israel government press office.” The agency said, citing “Israeli security sources,” that dozens of ISIS fighters in Syria have fallen ill and had symptoms of Ebola. This news quickly ignited a new conspiracy theory claiming that ISIS is planning to send Ebola-infected militants into the US to spread the disease. “While Western nations fighting the Islamic State might consider this reported Ebola outbreak among radical jihadists to be welcome news, there is a very big, very dangerous downside to Islamic terrorists being carriers of the virus,” Norvell Rose, the winner of numerous journalism honours, writes for WesternJournalism.com. The article also cites the Israeli News Agency (INA) for inference into why the news could prove dangerous for the Americans. The INA in its report quoted a source it identified only as “AVi,” who is “a global anti-terrorism consultant” as saying: “We know that ISIS has training camps in Africa and it is highly possible that this is where contact with the virus was made.
“This would add new meaning to the US stating that no boots would be on the ground as both missiles and Ebola penetrates one of the worst evils that the world has ever known.” The theory was further bolstered by reports of a direct threat from the ISIS militants who said they would spread the Ebola virus to the United States and its allies if they continue to wage war on the organization inside Syria and Iraq as reported by Shoebat.com, a website created by Walid Shoebat who was a radicalized Muslim until 1994 when he converted to Christianity. Shoebat quoted a statement from ISIS published in another website called Vetogate.com. The statement reportedly said: “Followers and soldiers of the Islamic State are mostly suicide bombers and all of them are ready not only to carry Ebola, but to drink Ebola if they were asked to carry and spread it in the United States. This is not difficult but we need a decision from the leaders jihadist.” The statement further said: “The process of spreading disease is not difficult. It can easily be transported in a bottle in your bag from Africa to America. The contents of the bottle can then be released in an air-conditioning duct or put it in the public drinking water.”

Al-Qaeda jihadists murder nine UN peacekeepers in northeast Mali
Obama say, they’re on the ropes!
Notice that these photos of al-Qaeda in Mali show them carrying the same flag that the Islamic State uses — the Islamic flag that says, “There is no god but allah and Muhammad is his prophet.” It’s all the same movement. They all have the same goal: the conquest and subjugation of the infidels and the imposition of Islamic law everywhere.
“Jihadists Suspected of Killing UN Peacekeepers in Mali,” by Samuel Oakford, Vice News, October 4, 2014:
Nine UN peacekeepers were killed early Friday morning during a brazen ambush carried out by suspected al Qaeda-linked militants in northeast Mali near the border with Niger.
The attack was the deadliest on peacekeepers in Mali since the UN’s mission in the country launched in July 2013. Heavily armed militants riding motorcycles attacked a UN logistical convoy — including a fuel truck — guarded by 40 Nigerien troops along the road between Ansongo and Menaka, in the Gao Region. A spokesman for the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali (MINUSMA) said there were no casualties beyond the nine peacekeepers.
“They were ambushed by terrorists with heavy weapons,” Olivier Salgado, spokesman for MINUSMA, told VICE News. “As soon as the incident occurred, we sent attack helicopters to secure the area as well as Chinook [helicopters] from the Dutch contingent to evacuate the soldiers.”
UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon said in a statement he was “shocked and outraged” by the attack. Ban’s spokeswoman Stephane Dujarric pointed out that, by attacking the fuel truck, the militants knew they “would cause an even greater number of casualties, which adds to the horrendous nature of the crime.”
Boko Haram leader appears alive in video — but Nigeria still says he’s dead.
In a statement, the UN Security Council said the targeting of peacekeepers may “constitute war crimes under international law.”
Salgado said the UN was still gathering information on the identity of the attackers, but observers suspect the assault, like several recent roadside bombings, was the work of jihadist militants with links to al Qaeda. He gave no word on casualties among the militants.
A series of IED attacks in September left 10 Chadian peacekeepers dead and raised questions about the ability of the UN and nearby French troops to protect peacekeepers. Countries contributing troops have been slow to devote soldiers to the mission, leaving it still nearly 3,000 short of the 12,000 peacekeepers mandated over a year ago.
The Dutch contingent that assisted in rescuing the troops from Niger arrived in Mali with a system of handheld drones used to survey nearby areas for signs of enemy activity. Though they may make use of information shared among peacekeepers, African battalions do not have drones of their own.
A total of 40 peacekeepers have died — 30 in hostilities and 10 from accidents or illness — since last July, and an additional 106 have been injured.
In December 2012, after Islamist militants, including the group Ansar Dine, captured territory in the north of Mali from Tuareg rebels (who had just taken it from Malian forces), the UN Security Council authorized a French intervention in the country. That mission, dubbed Operation Serval, was concluded in July of 2013. However, many of the troops transitioned to a larger, region-wide anti-terrorist force called Operation Barkhane. The French now have some 3,000 troops and a number of fighter jets deployed mainly at bases in Niger and Chad, as well as Mali. Both the US and France maintain drones in the region.
The UN mission, like most of its deployments, is focused on the protection of civilians rather than seeking out and confronting militants. There have been discussions about creating an attack-minded contingent similar to the successful Force Intervention Brigade used in 2013 in the Democratic Republic of Congo, but those plans have yet to materialize.
With the Malian army still in disarray after its embarrassing defeat to Tuareg rebels in 2012, the task of controlling areas like Gao has fallen largely on foreign troops. Chaos in southern Libya has also provide a sort of rear operating base for some militants….

When did we last have immigrants warning we’d lose their loyalty in a foreign conflict?”
Millions of Muslims come to Western countries with a ready-made model of society and government (sharia) which they believe to be superior to what we have here, and they work to implement it.
That’s the rub with this immigrant group.
And while Andrew Bolt is describing the danger that Australia faces from within, all countries face this threat. We see the same Islamic pattern in Europe, the US, Canada, Russia, China, New Zealand, etc…
When did we last have immigrants warning we’d lose their loyalty in a foreign conflict?
Andrew Bolt, October 04 2014
In past wars we’ve been assured that immigrants from the lands we’re fighting in are loyal to their new country. The internment of so-called “alien immigrants” has been ritually denounced as an absurd and offensive overreaction.
But many Muslim spokesmen now don’t assure us of the loyalty of their followers but warn of – or threaten – the very opposite. As I wrote a month ago:
On Wednesday, we woke up to news of another Islamic State beheading, this time of Stephen Sotloff…
And that very day Muslim leaders again put out a statement condemning … Tony Abbott.
This time, it was from the Australian National Imams Council… Again, it blamed the West for jihadism: “One of the main causative factor (sic) for local radicalisation in the West has been the western governments’ military involvement in the Middle East.”…
And there was this warning: “If the Australian Government is serious about reducing the terror threat locally, then it must review its foreign policy decisions with regard to this region.”…
That sounds like an outrageous threat. Name one other ethnic or religious group here that warns Australia to change its foreign policies or face violence from its members.
In New Zealand, too:
[The] secretary of the International Muslim Association of New Zealand, Tahir Nawaz, said sending the SAS to Iraq would be a bad idea.
”We are a very good community here, we are very co-operative. Once New Zealand troops are sent there, our public attitude could change. At the end of the day there would be people living here whose roots are in the countries where New Zealand would send the troops.”
Secretary of the Federation of Islamic Associations of New Zealand, Tony Green, who is based in Christchurch, said the United States invasion of Iraq created the conditions that gave rise to IS and further western intervention would only make things worse…
“That potentially fuels things because the whole martyr kind of scenario that’s been painted by the groups calling themselves IS, that would fan the flames more than anything.”
Another Christchurch Muslim, who asked not to be named, said sending troops to Iraq would play into the hands of IS.
“If you look at what came out of America going into Iraq, it didn’t bring anything good. I personally think that it can be used for the evil people to radicalise people and use it for their own purpose.”
Has any other immigrant group issued such warnings against presuming they will stay loyal in a foreign conflict?

American hostage of Islamic State, Peter Kassig, has converted to Islam
Every one of the recent beheading victims by the Islamic State were sympathetic to the jihad cause. Foley, Sotloff, Haines ……. it is absolutely and horribly illustrative of the left’s willful denial of the enemy doctrine.
“American captive of Islamic State, Peter Kassig, has converted to Islam,” thanks to Robert Spencer

Will his conversion save his life? After all, the Qur’an forbids Muslims to kill other Muslims (4:92). And so it is possible that the Islamic State jihadis will spare Kassig, but it is also possible that they will decide that as someone whom they perceive to be an agent of an enemy Infidel power, he must be executed anyway. “‘I believe in hopeless causes': American ISIS captive Peter Kassig described how he felt a calling to help wounded Syrian refugees – just one year before he was captured by Islamic militants and became a Muslim,” by Chris Spargo, Daily Mail, October 4, 2014 (thanks to all who sent this in):

American war vet-turned-aid-worker Peter Kassig talked about his hopes and dreams, and what motivated him to return to the Middle East as a medical worker, in an inspiring 2012 profile.

Sitting down with CNN Senior International Correspondent Arwa Damon, the Indianapolis, Indiana, native referred to himself as a ‘hopeless romantic’ and ‘idealist,’ eager to do as much as he could with his life.

The 26-year-old has been held captive by ISIS for the past year, and the terrorist organization is now threatening to kill him in response to increased attacks on the group by the United States.

‘The way I saw it, I didn’t have a choice. This is what I was put here to do,’ the young man told CNN of his decision to travel to Beirut and help Syrian refugees fleeing to Lebanon.
He then added, ‘I guess I am just a hopeless romantic, and I am an idealist, and I believe in hopeless causes.’

A member of the U.S. Army Rangers, he was deployed to Iraq in 2007 and honorably discharged for medical reasons after a brief tour….

U.S. officials confirmed yesterday that Kassig was being held by Islamic State militants but declined to give any more details of his capture.

His family said in a statement that they have stayed silent about this news ‘at the wish of those who have held their son.’

They also revealed that their son had converted to Islam while being held hostage.

Former hostages told the family that Kassig’s new faith has given him comfort during his long captivity…

UK Muslim Warns There Will Be More Beheadings on the Streets of Britain
I suspect there will be more beheadings everywhere….. even here.
But it’s a good thing that the British Home Secretary banned Robert Spencer and me from speaking against such savagery. Now the country is free to hear from devout Muslims like Mizanur Rahman.
Islamic extremist warns there will be more Lee Rigby-style killings on the streets of BritainOct 02, 2014, By Euan Stretch, The Mirror
British-born Mizanur Rahman claims the Home Secretary is ‘playing with fire’ by announcing plans to crackdown on Muslim extremists
An Islamic extremist has warned there will be more Lee Rigby-style atrocities on the streets of the UK if the government passes new laws to clampdown on Muslim activists.
British-born Mizanur Rahman, 31, accused Home Secretary Theresa May of ‘playing with fire’ by planning to introduce new ‘anti-social behavour orders’ for Muslim extremists.
Last month Ms May announced she was drawing up new counter-terrorism measures to prevent young muslims in the UK being radicalised and joining groups like the Islamic State (IS).
But Mr Rahman said moves to silence activists could encourage terror acts in the UK like the murder of soldier Lee Rigby by Islamic converts Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale last year.
Mr Rahman, jailed for four years in 2007 for encouraging the murder of American troops in Afghanistan and Iraq, gave the chilling warning in an interview with internet radio station FUBAR.
He said: “Theresa May is playing with fire because the fact is people like me who are willing to speak out regardless of the consequences are few.
“Other people will look to me and say they don’t want their house to be raided and to have a voice they will have to use other means.
“Rather they will take their own actions, like Michael Adebolajo, for example.
“The British police are saying that kind of attack is likely to happen again, and the threat level keeps rising.
“It certainly looks like it is going that way, and things like this announcement doesn’t help, it makes things worse.”
Warning: Theresa May
Mr Rahman insisted that neither he or nor his fellow jihadists were committing crimes in the UK or belonged to any banned organisations.
He was was among nine British Muslims including radical preacher Anjem Choudary arrested on suspicion of encouraging terrorism during a series of dawn raids last Thursday.
Mr Rahman added: “We have always operated within the law, much to the frustration of the Home Secretary and the police.
“The idea of prison doesn’t scare me. I know plenty of people there and can catch up with some of my pals.”
He claimed the raids, which came just hours before MPs voted to allow British airstrikes in Iraq, was politically motivated.

The Islamic State Targets US Military Families: “show up [at their homes] and slaughter them.”
Obama. His failed policies have made it open season on journalists, put American interests and targets within the crosshairs of jihadists, and turned otherwise stable regions into killing fields.

Now the soldier’s families are targets.
And Obama say, “fore!”

“Army warns US military personnel on ISIS threat to family members,” By Catherine Herridge, October 02, 2014, FoxNews.com

How dangerous is ISIS’ social media recruiting?
An Army intelligence bulletin is warning U.S. military personnel to be vigilant after Islamic State militants called on supporters to scour social media for addresses of their family members – and to “show up [at their homes] and slaughter them.”

The assessment, obtained by Fox News, came from the Army Threat Integration Center which issues early warnings of criminal and terrorist threats to Army posts worldwide.
The advisory warns military personnel and their families about the Islamic State, or ISIS, calling on supporters to target their homes.
While there is no independent intelligence to corroborate the ISIS threats, the bulletin recommends more than a dozen precautions to military personnel to protect their homes — and their online profiles.

“Given the continued rhetoric being issued by ISIL’s media services and supporters through various social media platforms the ARTIC is concerned of the possibility of an attack,” the bulletin says. “Soldiers, Government Civilians and Family Members are reminded to be vigilant of their surroundings and report suspicious activities to their respective military or local law enforcement.”

One section cites a jihadist tweet calling on lone offenders to use the “yellow pages” and social media to identify the addresses of military families, and to “show up [at their homes] and slaughter them.”

A military source familiar with the four-page document said the warnings are taken seriously because increasing the costs of security is a deliberate and strategic goal for Al Qaeda senior leadership – though the Islamic State has split with Al Qaeda.

The Army said in a written statement that protection levels at installations “have not changed.”
“This document is a reminder to stay vigilant,” the Army said. “It provides renewed emphasis on force protection measures to ensure the safety and security of our DOD components, defense critical infrastructure, personnel and communities.”

The warning comes amid heightened concerns about how the Islamic State and its followers are exploiting social media to expand their reach.
At a cybersecurity event on Wednesday, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Rogers, R-Mich., said the group is using social media “as a recruiting tool.”

He said some estimates show the terror network is recruiting as many as 3,400 people per month because of their social media recruiting efforts.

“Love”: The Islamic State’s Source of Strength
Global Jihad 2014 The Truth About Islam
Just to be clear:
While there are 300 references in the Koran to Allah and fear, there are 49 references to love. Of these references, 39 are negative, such as the 14 negative references to love of money, power, other gods, and status.

Three verses command humanity to love Allah and two verses are about how Allah loves a believer.
There are 25 verses about how Allah does not love Kafirs (non-Muslims).

This leaves five verses about love. Of these five, three are about loving kin or a Muslim brother. One verse commands a Muslim to give for the love of Allah. This leaves only one quasi-universal verse about love: Give what you love to charity. But even this is contaminated by dualism since Muslim charity (the zakat) only goes to other Muslims.

There is not one verse about either compassion or love of a Kafir, but there are twelve verses that teach that a Muslim is not a friend of the Kafir.[4]

Perhaps this is the “love” that inspires these devout savages

“‘Love': The Islamic State’s Source of Strength,” Raymond Ibrahim, October 2, 2014

The Islamic State recently posted a message on social media addressed to U.S. president Obama and all Arab world leaders reportedly allied with the U.S. against the new “caliphate.”

Titled “The State of Love,” the message harangues fellow Muslims to come and fight alongside the Islamic State against the “infidels,” adding: “The Islamic State does not spend billions of dollars to win over the hearts of people. Instead, it relies on the love of Islam that exists among the masses. And this is the secret of its strength.”

The post also carries an image of Obama and other Arab state leaders on one side and a lone jihadi terrorist on the other, with the caption: “With us or with the Infidels?” The word “us” appears in bold under the jihadi and the word “infidels” appears in bold under Obama et al.

One of the most infamous and pernicious sponsors of Islamic jihad terror: Qatar
GLOBAL JIHAD 2014 ISLAM: THE WAR ON JIHAD QATAR AWARENESS CAMPAIGN
To the American Public
ATLAS SHRUGS - PAMELA GELLER - Page 18 Qatar_awareness_campaign_logo

In light of the wars and violent turbulence that currently engulf the Middle East and parts of Africa, a coalition of concerned citizens, journalists, and activists are launching a campaign to expose a most infamous and pernicious sponsor of Islamic terror: the Gulf state of Qatar.Qatar, (pronounced “cutter,” or “gutter”), is, per capita, the richest country in the world ($93,352 in 2013). This is partly due to the fact that they control the third largest natural gas reserves in the world, the North Dome field in the Persian Gulf. It is also because Qatar has a mere 278,000 citizens, with a total population of 2.05 million; the remaining people in Qatar are a mix of well-paid ex-pats from countries such as the United States and Great Britain, and a substantial slave labor population.
A backer of international terror from Nigeria to Gaza to Syria and Iraq, the Qatari ruling family, the al-Thanis, exploit Islamic jihadi groups and their ties to illicit smuggling.What is being smuggled? Mostly narcotics and people – slaves.Unfortunately, the United States is integrated into the Qatari “economy” as much as any other developed nation. Doha, Qatar’s capital, is home to two of the largest American military bases in the entire world, as well as familiar companies like ExxonMobil, Boeing, and Lockheed Martin.
Doha also hosts a number of campuses for prestigious American universities, such as Georgetown, Carnegie Mellon, and Cornell. Other companies and organizations, ranging from the film production company Miramax to financial behemoths like Bank of America, have accepted significant amounts of investment by the al-Thanis.Hamas, a Qatari client, launched a war against Israel this summer. There is an ongoing genocide across Iraq and Syria, with mass graves and grisly beheadings of Christians and Shiite Muslims. Boko Haram continues to rampage across Nigeria, threatening the political stability of Africa’s largest economy and population. Qatari fingerprints are on each of crises.
Over the course of the next month, companies, organizations, and individuals with significant investments and activities with and in Qatar will be identified and contacted with the reality of their host country. These letters, once published, will be sent to press outlets around the world.We call on the parties identified in this campaign to review the evidence, which is all credibly sourced and vetted. In light of the terror, slavery, genocide, and narcotics trafficking, we urge the parties to demand that Qatar immediately cease any and all involvement in these activities.Sincerely,Pamela Geller

Netherlands: 14-year-old Muslim makes video supporting Islamic State and threatening to behead Jews
Europe is descending into madness…again. Even the Nazis weren’t this overt, and look what they accomplished. These savages have big plans for everyone, not just the Jews. Don’t kid yourself.
“Dutch Pupil Threatens Beheading of Jews,” Bad News from the Netherlands, September 28, 2014 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
A 14-year-old Muslim pupil at De Spindel High School in Hengelo prepared a short film in which he expresses his sympathy for ISIS and threatens to behead Jews. The pupil has been suspended. The matter has since gone public and the parliamentarians Van Klaveren and Bontes, of the VN party, have put forward questions to the Minister of Security and Justice regarding this issue. They want to know what measures may be taken against the pupil and what will be done to fight the growing anti-Semitism among Muslim students.

WARNING *GRAPHIC* Islamic State (ISIS) behead children and women after stripping them naked. A MOST INFORMATIVE READ before Graphics
http://pamelageller.com/2014/08/graphic-isis-beheading-children-women-stripping-naked-graphic.html/

Here is a must-read piece from Satya D, a prominent Hindu thinker and activist:

From the advent of Islam, it is the brutality that was used to conquer. Will Durant and other authors have translated Arabs own memoirs on how the Islamic invaders have destroyed cultures and swathes of land with utmost brutality and inhumanity with mountains of Kafir’s heads and rivers of blood. Durant quotes how a Sultan of Delhi becomes restless if he does not see mountains of Kafir’s heads every day morning. Steven Knapp quotes Arab memoirs of literally rivers of blood and the number of men and women sold in Arab markets as slaves (women as sex slaves).

Watch VIDEO: CNN interviews Pamela Geller on AFDI anti-jihad ads, Islamic supremacist bigot libels, defames -
Rosa Flores of CNN did a segment on AFDI’s jihad awareness ads last night on CNN Tonight. Flores was pleasantly evenhanded.
CNN Tonight is hosted by Don Lemon. For those who have wondered why Camerota was cut from FOX News, this segment provides ample evidence. Camerota made co-host Don Lemon look balanced and thoughtful.

CNN News interview Pamela Geller on AFDI Jihad-Awareness Campaign
Pamela Geller Published on 26 Sep 2014

The segment on the ads was, on balance, somewhat fair — considering that this is CNN. Hamas-CAIR is typically quoted. They are not identified as unindicted co-conspirators in the largest terrorist funding trial in our nation’s history. Or that so many CAIR leaders are serving prison time for jihad-terror crimes.
The ads were shown repeatedly, which is the objective. Getting the message out to those who never hear or see the truth is why we do what we do.

The debate that followed was libelous and defamatory. Hate-filled troll Mubin Sheikh went on a jihad of his own, spewing poison and outrageous lies. The “extremist hate creature” (to use his words) said I was responsible for the murder of children. Piling lie on top of libel, Mubin insisted I inspired Anders Breivik. He said Breivik quoted me repeatedly. Breivik never quoted me and was not inspired by my work. Breivik repeatedly said he was inspired by al Qaeda and Hamas. Breivik was a Nazi who admitted that his entire “manifesto” was intended solely to discredit the counter-jihad movement once he committed his murders. (http://expo.se/2014/breivik-vill-deportera-illojala-judar_6336.html_

Interesting how Muslim supremacists want to tie me to the actions of a singular madman (where there is no tie) but refuse to tie the actions of millions of jihadists to jihad.
Daveed Gartenstein-Ross was there to counter but did little of anything except fill up the screen with his unremarkable suit. Mealy-mouthed and somewhat confused, Gartenstein-Ross babbled on quite a bit, saying little. I don’t expect these trimmers on the right to defend me, but I do expect anyone with any intellectual honestly to defend the truth.
CNN must issue a retraction of Mubin Sheikh’s blood libel.

As for the notorious Shaikh’s absurd contention that I am “cherrypicking the Qur’an” — are millions of jihadists cherry-picking the Qur’an?
He insisted that Qur’an 47:4 “When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks…” is Allah speaking to the angels — which is true of another beheading verse, Qur’an 8:12, but not this one. No one questioned him on this, or why millions of jihadists invoke it to do the unspeakable.
Watch this debate between Shaikh and Robert Spencer, scholar of Islam: here.

US ambassador to UN Samantha Power says US has support from over 40 countries against Islamic State, but refuses to name them
The Obama administration has abandoned and turned against so many of America’s historic allies, it is no surprise that it can’t get any significant support for this effort. These pathetic lies from his antisemitic UN ambassador won’t cover up that fact forever.
“Ambassador Power touts support for Islamic State mission, Congress spars over combat mission,” Fox, September 21, 2014:

The U.S. ambassador to the United Nations said Sunday that the American-led effort to destroy the terror group Islamic State has support from more than 40 countries but declined to name them or the extent of their support.

“It’s up to the individual country,” Ambassador Samantha Power told ABC’s “This Week.”
France last week joined the United States in airstrikes against Islamic State targets in Iraq, and Saudi Arabia has offered to help train moderate anti-Islamic State group fighters.
However, what remains unclear is whether Turkey and such Arab States as Egypt and Qatar will join in the airstrikes, also pending in Syria, or send combat troops in join Iraqi forces in the fight against Islamic State, also known as ISIS or ISIL.
Meanwhile, a Democrat and Republican on the House Intelligence Committee laid out Congress’ ongoing concerns about the issue — primarily whether U.S. troops will or should be involved.

“I don’t know why the president says up front we will not put boots on the ground,” New York GOP Rep. Peter King told “Fox News Sunday.” “Why take that off the table?”
Obama has ruled out such a mission, despite Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Gen. Ray Odierno, the Army’s chief of staff, suggesting last week that combat troops might eventually be needed.

California Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff suggested on Fox that Obama as commander in chief makes the final decisions and argued the U.S. military occupation in Afghanistan “still hasn’t solved the problem” of eradicating terror groups and stabilizing that country.
King also said the president should seek international support but that destroying Islamic State is of “national interest” so the U.S. should not “hold back.”
Power also predicted Sunday that the U.S. “will not do airstrikes alone” and acknowledged that the effort to destroy Islamic State would take “several years.”

Turkey, situated along the Iraqi and Syrian border, has the second-largest army in NATO and is home to the U.S. Air Force base Incirlik.
But the Turkish government has reportedly not signed any agreement to participate in anything beyond a humanitarian effort, though Power pointed out the country has closed its Syrian border, amid pressure from Western countries.
Turkey has appeared reluctant to engage Islamic State because the militant group was holding 49 Turkish diplomats captured in June in Iraq. However, the hostages were released Saturday.
Also this weekend, Turkish forces clashed along the Syrian border with Kurdish refugees trying to escape Islamic State fighters.

Power talked to ABC and on NBC’s “Meet the Press” ahead of the annual U.N. General Assembly meeting this week in New York that President Obama will attend.

The president is scheduled to address the assembly on Wednesday morning, then address the Islamic State issue with the U.N. Security Council later that day.

Power on Sunday told NBC that the United States was not having problems “getting countries to commit” to helping thwart Islamic State’s swift and deadly rise to power, which has included beheadings and massacres, and that officials were in fact seeing a “diverse range” of support.
She also said Russia has concerns about Islamic State, whose surge from Syria into northern Iraq threatens the entire global economy, repeating Secretary of State John Kerry’s remark last week on Capitol Hill that “everybody can do something.”

However, she made clear that the U.S. would not share intelligence with Iran nor join the rogue country in a combat effort.

Muslims demand breakaway Islamic nation in Norway or another 9/11 threatened
In what is probably the most viciously antisemitic country in that region (and it’s a stiff competition), Norway is getting a taste of what it imported and supported.
“Muslims demand breakaway Islamic nation in Norway or another 9/11 threatened,” by Eliyokim Cohen
“We do not wish to live together with dirty beasts like you…”
The Norwegian news portal VG Nett is reporting that aMuslim terrorist group, Ansar al-Sunna’, is threatening that if a section of the nation’s capitol isn’t transformed into a sharia-complaint Muslim nation, an attack rivaling 9/11 will be launched upon the Scandinavian nation.
VG Nett has stated that the Norwegian Police Security Service (Politiets sikkerhetstjeneste - PST) is already familiar with many members of this particular terror group.
As translated by Michael Laudahn,
“If norwegian soldiers can take planes to Afghanistan, then Osama and Mohammed can also take planes to Norway, inshaAllah.
Now, the government must wake up and assume responsibility, before this war spreads to Norway. Before the counterpart reacts. Before moslems take the step necessary.
Do not confuse the moslems’ silence with weakness. Do not profit from the moslems’ patience. Do not force us to do something that can be avoided. This is not a threat, only the words of truth. The words of justice.
A warning that the consequences can be fatal. A warning about a 9/11 on norwegian ground, or larger attacks than the one carried out on 22 july. This is for your own good and in your own best interest.’
We do not want to be a part of norwegian society. And we do not consider it necessary either to move away from Norway, because we were born and grew up here. And Allah’s earth belongs to everybody.

Especially now, with the jihad raging in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, etc.These are the same “Afghan partners” who are slaughtering our soldiers and military brass in “insider attacks” in Afghanistan. Yesterday’s “moderate” Afghan soldiers are today’s jihadists, and the bloodbath begins. Under Obama’s reign, insider attacks against our soldiers were at record levels. So why would he bring Afghan soldiers here? It is subterfuge. Does Obama intend to fight on home soil? Why would Afghan soldiers need to train at US airbases?ABC News: Three Afghan national army officers have gone missing while in the United States for a joint military training exercise at Joint Base Cape Cod, U.S. military and law enforcement officials said.They arrived in the country on Sept. 11, and were reported missing by base security personnel late Saturday.

Khorasan: Al Qaeda’s quiet plan to outdo the Islamic State and hit U.S.
More jihad — allegedly more worrisome than the Islamic State. More gruesome than child beheadings, decapitated journalists, mass executions, mass gang-raping, ethnic cleansing, etc.?
Khorāsān, also spelled Khurasan, is a historical region and realm comprising a vast territory now lying in northeastern Iran, southern Turkmenistan, and northern Afghanistan. The historical region extended, along the north, from the Amu Darya (Oxus River) westward to the Caspian Sea and, along the south, from the fringes of the central Iranian deserts eastward to the mountains of central Afghanistan. Arab geographers even spoke of its extending to the boundaries of India
“Al Qaeda’s quiet plan to outdo ISIS and hit U.S.,” CBS News, September 18, 2014
WASHINGTON – The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) may be dominating the headlines and stealing attention with its prolific propaganda, but CBS News’ Bob Orr reports, another group in Syria — one few have even heard of because information about it has been kept secret — is considered a more urgent concern.
Sources tell CBS News that operatives and explosives experts from Osama bin Laden’s old al Qaeda network may again present an immediate threat to the U.S. homeland.
CIA insider on threat posed by new Syrian terror group more dangerous than ISIS
At two dozen foreign airports, U.S.-bound passengers are undergoing enhanced security screening. Agents are searching for hidden explosives. Laptops and phones with dead batteries have been banned from flights.Great Britain raised its national terror threat level, and the FBI is tracking American jihadists who may return home.
Sources say it’s due to the emerging threat in Syria, where hardened terrorists loyal to al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahri are working on new, hard-to-detect bombs.
In testimony Wednesday, the Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, Matt Olsen — who warned that U.S. agencies are unable to effectively track Western jihadists inside Syria — seemed to make a vague reference to the threat.
“In Syria, we’ve seen veteran al Qaeda fighters travel from Pakistan to take advantage of the permissive environment there,” said Olsen.
Sources confirm that the al Qaeda cell goes by the name “Khorasan.”
Unlike ISIS, which is believed at present to be largely engulfed in its fight for territory. Khorasan is developing fresh plots to target U.S. aviation, and it’s trying to recruit Westerners who have flocked to the fight in Syria, some of whom have joined the al Qaeda franchise in the country, known as the al-Nusra Front.
The fear is that U.S. and European passport holders could more easily smuggle explosives onto airplanes.
Asked if there was anything about the threat he could reveal to lawmakers during the public testimony on Capitol Hill, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said discussions about “specific organizations… should be left to a classified setting.”
Sources tell CBS News the group includes technicians trained by al Qaeda’s master bomb-builder, Ibrahim al-Asiri. The Yemen-based Asiri built the infamous but ultimately unsuccessful underwear bombs and two cargo bombs concealed in printer cartridges.
He is considered one of the most innovative bomb-builders in the jihadist world, and he’s still operating freely — at least for now.
CIA chief John Brennan recently told Orr that U.S. officials were “doing what we can” to track Asiri down, and predicted that his “time will come.”
At the moment, U.S. officials say there is no specific, credible threat to the homeland. But as information about Khorasan becomes available, it’s clear that al Qaeda remains obsessed with bombs, airplanes, and attacking the United States.

“Palestinian” President Abbas Refuses Egypt Sisi’s Offer of Creation of “Palestinian” State FIVE Times the Size of Gaza -
Further proof that this has nothing to do with land and everything to do with Islamic Jew-hatred and the destruction of the Jewish state.

Islamic Jew-hatred is an Islamic religious mandate. The very existence of Israel is deeply offensive to any devout Muslim.

Where are the blaring headlines? Where is the NY TImes and and all the other two state fraudsters?

“Egypt’s Sisi Offered Abbas Creation of Palestinian State in Sinai Peninsula,” By Jack Moore, IBTimes, September 8, 2014

Egyptian President General Abdel Fatah al-Sisi has offered Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas the chance to create a Palestinian state in the Sinai Peninsula, according to local Israeli media.

The offer to the Palestinian President which, reports say Abbas has denied, would have seen 1,600 square kilometres of the Sinai Peninsula given to the Palestinian Authority, creating a Palestinian state five times the size of Gaza.

According to IDF Radio, the offer would see Abbas relinquish demands that Israel return to the 1967 borders.

In the new and enlarged Gaza, the territory would be demilitarised and Palestinian refugees, many who were unable to return to their towns after the creation of Israel, would have been able to settle there.

As part of the proposal, Palestinian cities in the occupied West Bank would have been autonomous and continued to be under Palestinian Authority control.

Sisi allegedly said to Abbas in the meeting: “You are now 80 years old, if you don’t accept this proposal, your successor will.”

The Palestinian Authority is yet to publicly comment on the initiative but unnamed sources said that Abbas rejected the deal in a meeting with Sisi.

The Israeli military radio station said that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had knowledge of the offer and that the United States had given its approval to such an idea.

An idea along the same lines was introduced years ago by Israeli academics but Egypt rejected the proposal.

Elsewhere, the future of a unity government between Abbas’ Fatah and Hamas remains uncertain after the Palestinian president voiced his displeasure at the Islamist group’s “shadow” leadership of Gaza.

“We cannot continue working with Hamas this way. There are 27 undersecretaries of ministries who are running the Gaza Strip, and the national unity government cannot do anything on the ground.

“We won’t accept the continuation of the situation with Hamas as it is now and in this shape,” he said. “There must be one authority and one regime.”

Gaza is still recovering from a 50-day conflict which saw more than 2,100 Palestinians killed as well as 66 Israeli soldiers and seven Israeli civilians.

Iran Supreme Leader: Prepare for ‘New World Order’ that will ‘Replace America and Capitalism’
Thanks to Obama, they smell blood in the water — ours.
“Iran Supreme Leader: Prepare for the ‘New World Order’” by Adam Kredo, Free Beacon, September 8, 2014
rouhani
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warned that the “new world order is emerging” and that “Iran will have a strong role in creating” it, according to a Farsi language transcript of Khamenei’s remarks late last week to the country’s Assembly of Experts.
Iran will lead this “new world order” that will replace American influence as capitalism and Western influence collapses, according to Khamenei, who underwent surprise prostate surgery on Monday.
“Iran will have a strong role in creating the new world order,” Khamenei said, explaining that Tehran will expand its already growing influence in Latin America and even Asia.
“We have important potential outside Iran, we have supporters, we have strategic depth, in the region, some because of Islam, some because of language, some because of Shia religion, they are our strategic depth, these are all our strengths, we should use them all,” Khamenei said, according to a translation of his remarks provided to the Washington Free Beacon.
“And it is not only in the region, outside the region, in Latin America we have strategic depth, in some important parts of Asia we have strategic depth, we have the tools to use these opportunities and we have to use these opportunities, using them makes the country strong,” Khamenei said.
A sign of the West’s waning power came when “the Zionist regime of Israel” purportedly “lost the battle against the small population of the Muslims in Gaza,” according to a separate recounting of Khamenei’s remarks published by the state-run Fars News Agency.
“The recent war in Gaza was an example of miracle; a small region with limited capabilities accomplished a task that brought the Zionist regime, as the symbol of the West’s power, to its knees,” he was quoted as saying. “The current world order cannot continue and a new order is emerging.”
On Monday, just days after delivering these remarks to top leaders in Iran, Khamenei entered the hospital for prostate surgery.
The surgery was reported to have been successful and Khamenei was accompanied by Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, who was pictured kissing the Supreme Leader’s head shorty after the procedure ended.
“I have a surgery and I am now leaving for the hospital,” Khamenei was quoted as telling the country’s press early Monday. “There is no reason to worry; this, of course, does not mean that I don’t need people’s prayers, but God willing, there is no point to worry as it is a normal operation.”
While Khamenei has not addressed the public since the operation, Rouhani said that he is recovering.
Khamenei, who will reportedly be in the hospital for up to five days, is “in good health conditions now,” Rouhani was quoted as telling reporters in Tehran.
Meanwhile, Iranian authorities announced that it had arrested a Ukrainian for attempting to spy on the country’s nuclear power plant at Bushehr. Iran claimed that the spy was hired by the United States in a bid to “impair” Tehran’s relations with Russia.
