Robert Spencer: “Pirates shouldn’t target ships of Muslim countries”

Of course, as for those of non-Muslim countries, he does not say one way or the other. But the Islamic tradition regarding the property of unbelievers is clear:

“I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah’s Apostle, and offer the prayers perfectly and give the obligatory charity, so if they perform a that, then they save their lives an property from me except for Islamic laws and then their reckoning (accounts) will be done by Allah” (Sahih Bukhari1.2.24).

And:

“If you embrace Islam, you will be safe. You should know that the earth belongs to Allah and His Apostle, and I want to expel you from this land. So, if anyone amongst you owns some property, he is permitted to sell it, otherwise you should know that the Earth belongs to Allah and His Apostle” (Sahih Bukhari 4.53.392).

The Huffington Post . By Devil’s Advocate

If many of you have not heard, there was a horrific story in the news where a
13-Year-Old rape victim was stoned to death in Somalia for adultery. Any sane person would have understood that this event clearly demonstrates Western cultural superiority when compared to Islamic societies. It would also prove why radical Islam needs to be stopped. Well, as usual, the Leftists on the Huffington Post decided to blame America, Sarah Palin and Republicans for the horrific event.

The saddest aspect of the comments on The Huffington Post is that these people are clearly are well-educated. Nevertheless, it is just another example of how college indoctrination makes people dumber. Here are the responses to the rape and execution of the Somali girl in Somalia:

This is exactly what would happen in the United States if the religious-right were to take over.

Update: Somali Islamists want weapons on ship, say residents

MOGADISHU (Reuters) - Islamist insurgents have demanded to be given some of the weapons aboard a hijacked Ukrainian ship carrying 33 tanks but the pirates holding it have refused, a local official said on Sunday.

The Islamist gunmen from the al Shabaab group opposing Somalia’s weak interim government have also received a five percent cut of the $1.5 million paid out for a Spanish ship released several months ago, a resident told Reuters.

About two weeks ago, heavily-armed pirates captured the MV Faina near Hobyo town in central Somalia and are demanding a $20 million ransom. Several U.S. navy ships are watching it to ensure none of the weapons are unloaded.

“Al Shabaab wanted some weapons from the Ukrainian ship but the pirates rejected their demands,” a local official who asked not to be named told Reuters. “Al Shabaab went away after they were rejected by the residents and the pirates. I am sure the group is not far from the area,” he said.

Somalia:

* Who, in his right mind, would voluntarily go to an Islamic nightmare country, a dreck-hole that has seen nothing but uncivil war for more than 20 years, a country that is ruled by war-lords and anarchy, knowing that he or she would be nothing more than a target for kidnapping?

* We have seen a few of these cases before, like the Italian commie ratbag Segrena, accurately depicted here at Jawa report:

 Giuliana Sgrena is a propagandist for the Communist daily rag Il Manifesto. Her writings do not reveal a bias, they reveal that Sgrena is an enemy of the United States of America and responsible for supporting terrorists and the murder of American soldiers and civilians.

* We do not imply that Mr Brennan, Canadian journalist Amanda Lindhout are commie-moonbats who are on the side of our enemies, but their folly is of concern.

What was their intention? What were they looking for? Whose side are they on?

The footage aired on Al Jazeera reportedly shows kidnapped Australian journalist Nigel Brennan and a Canadian companion

*  So yes: who are the people for whom we are  made to feel sorry now? Check these reports and come back to us if you know more than we do:

“Angola - Girl Decapitated In Attack By Muslim Extremists”:

Muslim extremists recently attacked the Christian community in the town of Andulo. In an horrific incident, the school-age daughter of a deacon at one of the churches was decapitated. Forty believers were assaulted or tortured, and one of them needed 20 stitches in his head. The mob burned three church buildings. They also went to believers’ houses to intimidate them and damaged or destroyed items of property.
