10,000 ISIS Jihadists Surround Baghdad

So much for the supposed 350 airstrikes against Islamic State jihadists in Syria and Iraq. The Kurdish town of Kobane, in northern Syria is poised to fall to ISIS, and now Baghdad, Iraq, has been surrounded. Much of Anbar province- Baghdad's back yard- is under ISIS control. If they capture all of all of it, including the city of Ramadi, Anbar's capital, this does not bode well for Baghdad and the 1,500 or so U.S. troops helping Iraqi forces there.

ISIS’s heightened activity led to speculation that the group’s offensive to control Kobane was only a decoy architectured by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the self-proclaimed ISIS “caliph.”

Observers, the Telegraph reported, say that while an ISIS-controlled Kobane would not greatly benefit the group strategically, the capture of Ramadi and other cities in Anbar would, as it would be catastrophic for both the Iraqi government and the U.S.-led coalition hoping to contain the group.

According to an Iraqi official there are around 10,000 ISIS terrorists surrounding Baghdad. That's a mighty force.

Canadian Jihadist Warns Of NYC Attack- Vice News Video

Vice News founder Shane Smith has an exclusive interview with a 21-year-old Somali/Canadian Islamic State  militant who warns of an attack on New York city because there are a lot of "brothers" there, mobilizing.

Farah Shirdon aka Abu Usamah Somali made the trek to Syria, is seen burning his Canadian passport, and promises to destroy Canada and the U.S. Though it was thought he had been killed in August, some believe he is in fact still kicking and now in Iraq.

Vice News tracked him down (or someone who purports to be him) via social media and arranged a video conference on September 23, 2014 in Mosul, Iraq.  He claims there are at least 10 to 15,000 foreign fighters in Iraq and thousands around the world ready to attack.

Smith asks him who he is fighting right now and Shirdon's response:  "the world."

Asked when they will stop fighting among other things- when the black flag flies over the White House.

And he's ready and willing to martyr himself. One can only hope his wish comes true, along with those other thousands of jihadists.

Pakistani Muslim Claims ISIS A Global Threat

A Pakistani human rights activist and supporter of Israel, who also happens to be a Muslim, believes ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) is a global threat, and far worse than the Nazis.

In an interview, Kasim Kaz Hafeez said:

“Just looking at what they have done in Iraq already, a Muslim country, imagine them rampaging in Europe or North America,” Kasim emphasized. “Slaughter and the irradiation of peoples is part of their strategy. They must convert or die and even then, many convert to be later murdered.” Kasim believes that ISIS ideology is worse than the Nazis, because “the ideology that inspires them is a religious supremacist ideology which gives men in their eyes G-d given authority to murder to achieve their goals.”

“Radical Islam like Nazism a supremacist ideology but radical Islam is not centered in one country, its not just Iraq and Syria. The ideology has tentacles everywhere,” Kasim noted. “So on the one hand; you have ISIS swallowing up territory. On the other hand, you have people all over the world that will be happy as thousands of civilians are murdered in the name of their cause. Also you have people flocking from all over the world to join ISIS. It is a global ideology, which does not need a central government to flourish. Whereas Nazi Germany had its centralized system, which when it collapsed, Nazism as a world force ended. Even if we destroy ISIS, it is liable to crop up elsewhere. Like the Taliban were toppled, it wasn't the end of them or their ideology.”

He believes the Obama administration is weak and naive "when it comes to foreign policy" and that not stopping ISIS while it's still in its infancy would be a major mistake.  He said if they are not stopped now:

 “Firstly, we will see genocide and the systematic eradication of people simply because they are 'different.’ Secondly, it shows ISIS that they can butcher innocents in full view of the world and the world will not do a thing to intervene.” 

He also thinks Jordan is the next target and that

 “they are emboldened by every excess they are able to push without a response. Their potential is limitless.”

Well isn't that a comforting thought.

Video: Danish Muslims Fighting In Syria For Caliphate

Danish Muslims are fighting in Syria for the Caliphate. This one disparages all the free stuff they get in Denmark while growing up, and calls upon his Danish brothers and sisters to join the fight.

Hizb ut-Tahrir Reaffirms Its Goal: Abolish Democracy And Establish A Global Caliphate

In response to a drone attack in Pakistan, Hizb ut-Tahrir just re-affirmed its goal of abolishing Democracy and capitalism and establishing a global caliphate (Khilafah) in Pakistan and elsewhere:

 Hizb ut-Tahrir's constitution and vast collection of books and documents on the Khilafah, all established upon Islamic evidences, are for implementation from the moment it comes to power. Hizb ut-Tahrir is the only political party in the entire world that has six decades of experience in exposing, challenging and foiling the Western colonialist plans. It has armies of brave, defiant and capable politicians, skilled Islamic jurists, for the implementation of Islam, which Pakistan's press has accurately described as a "shadow government," ready to rule. It has a presence throughout the Muslim World and is capable of delivering its promise to unify the entire Muslim World as a single state, a Khilafah for the entire Ummah. And it alone has a global leader who has with wisdom and dynamism brought the Ummah to the very brink of real change, Shaikh Ata Ibnu Khalil Abu Arrashtah, the Ameer of Hizb ut-Tahrir. It is time for the end of Kayani, American stooges, capitalism and Democracy. Now is the time for Sheikh Ata, Hizb ut-Tahrir, Islam and its Khilafah. So officers of the armed forces of Pakistan, it is upon you to grant the Nussrah to Hizb ut-Tahrir for the immediate establishment of the Khilafah, so the real change that Pakistan needs can take place.

Hizb ut-Tahrir is an international Islamic organization and political party.

Hizb ut-Tahrir is a political party whose ideology is Islam. Its objective is to resume the Islamic way of life by establishing an Islamic State that executes the systems of Islam and carries its call to the world. Hizb ut-Tahrir has prepared a party culture that includes a host of Islamic rules about life’s matters. The party calls for Islam in its quality as an intellectual leadership from which emanates the systems that deals with all man’s problems, political, economic, cultural and social among others. Hizb ut-Tahrir is a political party that admits to its membership men and women, and calls all people to Islam and to adopt its concepts and systems. It views people according to the viewpoint of Islam no matter how diverse their nationalities and their schools of thought were. 

They don't just want Islam to dominate in Muslim regions, they want Islam to dominate the whole world.

From the American Hizb ut-Tahrir website:

The Aim of Hizb ut-Tahrir

Its aim is to resume the Islamic way of life and to convey the Islamic da'wah to the world. This objective means bringing the Muslims back to living an Islamic way of life in Dar al-Islam and in an Islamic society such that all of life's affairs in society are administered according to the Shari'ah rules, and the viewpoint in it is the halal and the haram under the shade of the Islamic State, which is the Khilafah State. That state is the one in which Muslims appoint a Khaleefah and give him the bay'ah to listen and obey on condition that he rules according to the Book of Allah (swt) and the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (saw) and on condition that he conveys Islam as a message to the world through da'wah and jihad.

The Party, as well, aims at the correct revival of the Ummah through enlightened thought. It also strives to bring her back to her previous might and glory such that she wrests the reins of initiative away from other states and nations, and returns to her rightful place as the first state in the world, as she was in the past, when she governs the world according to the laws of Islam.

It also aims to bring back the Islamic guidance for mankind and to lead the Ummah into a struggle with Kufr, its systems and its thoughts so that Islam encapsulates the world.

And they complain about Western colonialism and U.S. imperialism.

And they wonder why there are so many "Islamophobes" in the Western world.

Work For The Return Of The Global Caliphate- Video

A Muslim- probably based in the U.K.- tells fellow Muslims that a global Caliphate (Khilafah) is coming:

"..with our effort, our lives, and our sweat and blood."

I think we know what that means.

He urges the Ummah to work for its return, because:

 "the only time we've had honor is when we were ruled by the book of Allah."

Right. All we have to do is look at all the countries ruled by Shariah , or the ones that extremists are trying force into establishing Shariah throughout the land (Al-Shabaab in Somalia), and we can see just how much honor there is under that rule of law.

For those who don't think this is a major goal of many Muslims, think again.
