Update:
“During the message the Koran is quoted and suicide bombers were told to carry out plans now.”
Why isn’t the Islamic State stopped by all the peaceful passages of the Qur’an that non-Muslims who have never read the Qur’an assume dominate its pages?
“The new video, which Express.co.uk has chosen not to show, told ISIS fanatics to ‘wait and hide for them in houses, corners, roads’ and carry out murders.”
“Kill the polytheists wherever you find them and capture them and besiege them and sit in wait for them at every place of ambush” — Qur’an 9:5
“‘Attack them in their homes’ ISIS in twisted call for bloodshed during Ramadan,” by Zoie O’Brien, Express, May 26, 2017:
ISLAMIC State (ISIS) has called for attacks in Britain during the holy month of Ramadan, which starts tonight, after the Manchester bombing which killed 22 and maimed dozens more. (Jihad Watch has more)
NOTHING TO DO WITH ISLAM, EXCEPT THE PRAYERS
But our ASIO boss would say it has nothing to do with Islam:
Extremists Devout Muslims allied with Islamic State are believed to have executed Filipinos in a besieged southern city of the Philippines because they could not cite Islamic prayers, as the death toll from six days of fighting rose to 100, with dozens wounded.
The bodies of eight men, most of them shot in the head with their hands tied behind their backs, have been found on the outskirts of Marawi, 830 kilometres south of Manila
Residents who had fled the city told journalists the militants separated Christians and Muslims by those who could recite the prayers and took away those who could not.
Jihad in the Philippines: Muslims bomb Christian city, 14 dead, 50 wounded
The majority Catholic nation has been under siege by Muslims waging jihad. Bloody terror.
The Philippines has made extraordinary concessions to the violent Muslim uprising. But as we know, that only leads to more violence and more demands for an even bigger Islamic state. Islamic terror rages on in the Philippines. Worse, these supremacist savages are rewarded. The modern-day manifestation of the caliphate, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), had “observer status” in the “talks” between the Philippine government and the jihadist Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF). Muslim terrorists slaughter and the OIC “mediates.”
It would be comical if it weren’t so deadly. The Philippines (a former American protectorate and 95% Catholic country) has had to give up territory and “share wealth” with these jihadi rebels. (More from Pamela Geller)
Here’s a pro-jihadist view from al Jizz:
Mindanao crisis: A city on fire
All of a sudden, the Philippines is grappling with the spectre of ISIL and, for some, Marcosian authoritarianism.
Its not a “crisis”, its jihad. Jihad is permanent and relentless, it never erupted “all of a sudden”.

“It would not be any different from what President [Ferdinand] Marcos did,” declared Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte shortly after declaring martial lawacross the restive island of Mindanao. “I’d be harsh,” he warned.
The tough-talking Filipino president was on a five-day trip to Moscow, when news broke out that the Maute, an armed group affiliated with the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL, also known as ISIS), laid siege to the city of Marawi, the biggest urban centre in the Muslim-majority provinces of the Philippines.
At first, the Philippine military tried to play down the situation by claiming that everything was under control. Yet, as hours went by, it became increasingly clear that the armed group was far from subdued, as it was still rampaging across the city, taking a Christian priest and several civilians hostage, and vowing to declare an Islamic State “Wilayat” (province) in Mindanao.
It will likely take weeks, if not months, before the Philippine government takes control of the situation since the ongoing violence has already forced thousands to flee Marawi to seek refuge elsewhere.

Duterte moots martial law for the Philippines

MANILA — President Rodrigo Duterte warned Wednesday he may declare martial law throughout the country if terrorism spills beyond Mindanao in the conflict-torn south.
