Islamic State’s Saudi branch calls for clearing Arabian Peninsula of Shi’ites

Share:

SUNNIS, SHITES . MESaudi Arabia’s branch of militant group Islamic State has said it wants to clear the Arabian Peninsula of Shi’ite Muslims and urged young men in the kingdom to join its cause, the U.S.-based SITE monitoring center has reported.

Islamic State claimed two suicide bombings carried out on May 22 and May 29 on Shi’ite mosques in eastern Saudi Arabia, where the bulk of the Saudi Arabia’s Shi’ite minority lives. The attacks killed 25 people.

In the 13-minute-long recording, the speaker said Islamic State had ordered its followers everywhere to “kill enemies of Islam, especially Shi’ites”, according to SITE.

“What then if they live with their disbelief in the Peninsula of Mohammad,” SITE quoted the speaker as saying, referring to the Arabian Peninsula, birthplace of Islam and where Saudi Arabia is located.

“They are disbelievers and apostates, and their blood is permissible to be shed, and their money is permissible to be taken. It is a duty upon us to kill them … and even to purify the land from their filth,” he said.

While the speaker made a reference to the suicide bombing on May 22 in al-Qadeeh village, he did not mention the May 29 attack in Dammam, suggesting the recording predates the latest bombing.

Saudi Arabia, the world’s top oil exporter, has strongly denounced the attacks on its Shi’ite population and Saudi King Salman has vowed to bring those involved or sympathetic to the acts to justice.

Western-allied Saudi Arabia is leading an Arab campaign against Yemen’s Houthis, who follow a sect of Shi’ite Islam and are allied to Tehran. Analysts say the conflict is a tussle for influence between Sunni Muslim kingdom and Shi’ite power Iran.

In the recording, the speaker urged young Saudis to join his group to fend off what he called the “Shi’ite threat” against Sunni Muslims and said the government of King Salman was unable to protect them.

“The spark has been lit, so you must all ignite a fire

with which you burn the faces of the Rafidha (Shi’ites) and apostates. You must all come to burn the thrones of the tyrants,” he said.

Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, in a speech a week before the al-Qadeeh attack, dismissed Saudi Arabia’s ruling family, the Al-Saud, as “guard dogs” of the West and Israel. Muslim enemies, including Shi’ites, were “allies of Satan”, he said.

His group controls large parts of Iraq and Syria.

        If I were you I would not give the credit to the Zionists . The credit really should go to the West and Russia for backing the Zionists . Without them Israel would never have existed or lasted this long. Even till this date Israel is the largest recipient in the world of US aid.

            Feel so bad for the people of Iraq, angry about how and why this continuous horror was forced upon them. It says a lot about the pointlessness, corruption and injustice of the International system and the hegemony of Western self-interest. There is an URGENT need for a real Assembly of Nations that holds ALL states accountable and PREVENTS war, FIGHTS poverty and promotes justice and equality. Without such a mechanism, we are doomed and doomed pretty soon. Why isn’t the UN and world leaders working around the clock to tackle the wars in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, the Mediterranean Boats, the Rohingya a, climate change, inequality, racism and fundamentalism……?

            Oh yes, please, don’t say they are ‘superhuman’. They laud themselves enough as it is. :-))
            I still haven’t figured out how 360 million allow 13 million to control them, or indeed another 7 billion somewhere, but there it seems to be. Right? Everyone says it – even a Japanese friend who claims Japanese Jews are the worst in the world (he’s an importer trying to export …) – strangely, the same line my Armenian friend uses to describe Armenian Jews.
            Nevertheless, I copied the map above … named it ‘MuslimMap2015’ … now preserved for future reference in a Thesis I will write, named; ‘Tribal Motion On A Rotating Planet’ – wherein I will prove that Gravity cannot truly be considered as the ‘greatest force’ – (and by mathematical probabilities should therefore be escapable) – since Rotating Worlds create Eddies where some flotsam and jetsam tend to gather for indefinite periods of time – until, in the case of either of the black holes of Iran or Israel, it is sucked in and concentrated according to a simple weight-factor of the hot air produced by various languages – recorded in past books purporting to have a certain Gravity In Concept.

            I think you are giving the Zionists more credit than they deserve . No doubt they have influence because they very well organized and work together in a very well coordinated manner , unlike the Arabs , but are far from controlling American foreign policy…. the Iran nuclear talks are a living proof

            they are working to destroy and enslave others..it is their history at the past ,now and in future.Arabs are not working that way.They only defended them selves in Iraq.But I see Zionist game just planted uprising on both side the Sunnis and the Shiites..in order to destabilize ..since Sunnis are outnumbers the Shiites..they will win in future..and the uprising will not stop..it is will enlarge the uprising in Israel..the uprising also will divided people on the earth in two..on behalf of Zionist and on behalf of Palestinians and what called isis and militants or terrorist.When these fighters started to killing in Israelis..these terrorist will regarded by the world as warriors..not only by Muslims all over the world,,but also by Zionist haters.That why I said Zionist games really will put them in great destruction..some of them admit it now..But America is not going to defeat these militants in Iraq and Syria..America have another dirty plan..to destroy Iran y using these Sunnis militants.Zionist is not unite in their plan.Likely to Arab who are not unite,Zionist also will get destroyed in near future when half the world will unite on them.I bet.I m not wrong.

  2. Huthis militants seized on May 30 Saudi embassy in the capital Sana’a, Yemen, expelling 40 guards. According to the Iranian news agency Fars, on site Shiite militiamen found a large warehouse of “Israeli” weapons

    If only Arabs would open their eyes, so they can open their minds. We can blame the West, the Zionists, the Russians, the Turks, and everyone else; but the truth is hard to accept, and that’s what all the stakeholders are banking on. Religion is the true crippling force, that is blinding the Arabs.

      If Arabs are not stick on their religion..they will turn to American Red Indian…no cultures…no politic..no economy..no oil..no glory…receded by History at all..they have nothing..even them selves..all Arabs will be slaves to America and Jews..thanks to Allah who unite them will religion..and thanks for what they called terrorist who are fighting fiercely to defend their heritage,glory..culture ,religion,oil and their freedom..America politicians and armies really slaves to Jews that …why America are killing in 9 11 and in Iraq in 2003 in order to stabilize the area on behalf of Jews.Better die in spite of being Jews slaves likely to most of coward western peoples.

        You prove my point, you’re blinded by religion. You quickly point your finger at others, but you only have to look in the mirror. Your pathetic tactics work on the close and weak minded people, like you, that follow blindly fictional man made religions. Assuming people that have a different opinion than yours are sympathizers of Jews and Zionist or the West, shows how close minded you are.

        If these so called “fierce fighters” are truly defending their heritage, first they would have to have honor, but we all know that’s not true, these are nothing more than stupid evil criminals, why else would they be killing innocent people, enslaving kids and raping women, no less people of their own man made religion.

        Funny how these Fundamentalist Radical idiots, behave exactly like the Zionist and the Nazis – only their kind matters!

          America who killed nearly 1 million Iraqis is not brutal..it is your mind set….all your media run by Zionist..no such rape in Sunnis side..it is in Assad side.Yes they killed others badly..but Americans Assad who started to genocide them.90% civilized people converted to religion..it is an aboriginal who are not converted to any religion,who wear nothing,eating fruits in the jungle..and it is you and all atheist..you better live with them in the jungle.They are fool like you.Even an aboriginal believe in god..but you are not..an aboriginal is better then you..you also can,t join them..you must join animals..but animal s also believe in god… the truth you are fit join Satan.But Satan also knows there are god but they betrayed him…so who are you and all atheist.?.you and all atheist are the worth and foolish creatures in universe the world have even seen.You better cut your ball in four for your foolishness.

          1. Amazing how you continue to prove my point every time you reply. You believe in your gods, and think your way is the only way. You start calling others names, labeling them and insulting them. Yet, the so called “non-believers”, accept you, and let you live in our open accepting society and practice what ever you believe in.

            Animals believe in god, now that is funny, as in ignorantly funny. Please leave the animals out of this, they have not done anything to religion to deserve this. I mean come man, open you eyes so your mind can see.

            Who am I? I accept others for who they are, but I don’t have to be like them (or you). I’m human; take a look in the mirror and you may see humanity too!
