It Begins… Suicide Bomber Slaughters 8 South Africans Over Anti-Islam YouTube Video
Posted by Jim Hoft on Tuesday, September 18, 2012, 8:55 AM
This wasn’t supposed to happen–
A female suicide bomber slaughtered twelve people today in Afghanistan over the anti-Mohammad YouTube video “The Innocence of Muslims.”
Eight South Africans were killed in the blast.
The Telegraph reported, via Religion of Peace:
At least nine foreign civilian workers and several Afghans were killed in a car bomb suicide attack which militants said was revenge for an American-made anti-Islam film.
A car packed with explosives rammed a minibus carrying the workers as it travelled on the main road near Kabul’s airport.
Everyone inside the minibus was killed along with several Afghans nearby. Gen Daud Amin, deputy police chief for Kabul, said the nine foreigners were killed in the minibus along with their Afghan driver.
The dead included South African and Russian citizens. Eight South Africans died in the attack which killed 12, the foreign ministry said.
The power of the blast in front of a filling station blew the wreckage of the minibus 40 yards from the point of impact. Only the engine block remained from the car carrying the bomb.
Witnesses said at least two of the bodies in the wreckage appeared to be foreign women. Police at the scene said the victims were civilian aviation staff at the nearby airport, but they did not disclose their nationalities.
The blast was claimed by Hizb-i Islami, an insurgent faction led by the former warlord Gulbuddin Hekmatyar.
A statement emailed to journalists said it had been carried out in reprisal for the film “The Innocence of Muslims”, which ridicules the Prophet Mohammed and has sparked outrage across the Muslim world since a trailer emerged on YouTube.
The statement claimed the bomber was a 22-year-old woman called Fahima. Police at the scene said they had only found the bomber’s legs and it was impossible to tell if they belonged to a man or woman.
Just wait until Hollywood releases its Obama-Osama film.
That ought to really fire up the Muslim street.

“sparked outrage across the Muslim world since a trailer emerged on YouTube”
BS!!! The trailer showed up on YouTube at the beginning of July and the guy’s channel had 3 comments before 9/11/2012 and none of those 3 were critical of the movie. People need to quit pushing this lie about the trailer provoking these attacks. This just became a convenient excuse for more violence from these radicals.

No offense, Jim. But you start sooo many threads with the words, “It begins”.
It has already begun, and thus cannot continue beginning.
Indiana commented:
So the Obama administration brought attention to a “movie” that he covered his a** with, that nobody had seen…..now he’s got an even bigger disaster on his hands. Obama is going to get us all killed with his juvenile antics. When are his supporters going to wake up and determine that he’s not even “cute” anymore.
tommy mc donnell commented:
this is not a new action(killing people)for the muslims. they were doing this long before this video surfaced. they are using it as an excuse for their normal behavior. i wish you would stop saying it is the video that is causing this behavior when clearly it is not.
i wonder if barbara boxer or diane feinstein will charge them with violating the geneva convention for killing civilians. i wonder if code pink will demonstrate over the lose of innocent civilian life. by the way is the geneve convention still in force. i haven’t heard it mentioned in the media or by the geneva convention twins since the myth was elected

#3 you are right.
they are only using what Obama has given them, the option to claim a movie upset them, in order to (they think) get a complete pass for doing their best to carry out enough slaughters to add up to another 9/11 casualty count.
it’s funny because Obama sitting it out while all of this is going on makes me think of a guy whose job was to set up the U.S. as tinder and then camp out while ‘Rome burns’ and then hightail it out to his 35 million dollar Hawaiian mansion and join with global leaders to divvy out the no longer United anythings…that’s why he couldn’t be bothered to know how many states. As far as he is concerned they are all invalid and about to be defunct.

Jim might be into relativity and therefore the commencement can be infinite.
Buzzy commented:
I don’t know if it is true or not, but, I read that the State Dept. is in negotiations with the Egyptian Gov. (Morsi) to “transfer”, not “release” the Blind Sheik to Egypt. If this is true the American people must know how far down Obama’s lips are attached to Morsi’s butt, as well as the Muslim Brotherhood. If you follow the foreign news sources, you can see how disrespected Obama is because of his weakness with the Arab demands.
I was also looking for news about Amb. Stevens funeral. There is nothing out there that I found, but one person seemed to think that the Ambassador has already been cremated. Does anyone know if that is true? I wouldn’t be one bit surprised if Obama/Clinton have insured that no verification can be made as to his cause of death other than what they want you to believe. Guaranteed you will never see the autopsy reports on the Amb. and the other 3 Amer. who were killed.

“It begins?…”
It started over 1,300 hundred years ago.
Rhinestone Suderman commented:
But—but—but—
I thought the Islamic world was upset at us evil Americans! And Israel. How does South Africa come into it?
Couldn’t be this is really about worldwide jihad, and establishing the Caliphate, could it?
Naaaaah, our government says it’s because of the video. And would they lie to us?

How is South Africa connected to Youtube videos? The killing goes on in Thailand, India, the Philippines, etc. These nuts do not need any real reason to kill.

Producer Of Anti-Islam Film Was Fed Snitch
[SEPTEMBER 14--In remarks stressing that the U.S. government had “absolutely nothing to do with” the anti-Islam film that has touched off violence in the Middle East, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton yesterday sought to quash Arab concerns that the “disgusting and reprehensible” movie was somehow produced or condoned by American officials.
However, Clinton’s attempt to distance the U.S. from “Innocence of Muslims” --and, by extension, its felonious producer --may be complicated by the revelation that Nakoula Basseley Nakoula became a government informant after his 2009 arrest for bank fraud, The Smoking Gun has learned.
Though many key documents from the U.S. District Court case remain sealed, a June 2010 sentencing transcript provides an account of Nakoula’s cooperation with federal investigators in Los Angeles (and how his prison sentence was reduced as a result).]

Steve Emerson interview on shameful
US response to Islamist Riots on Sun TV
Emerson: “Well I’m going to be perfectly honest. I thought it was the lowest point in his career and I was embarrassed by what they said. First of all the initial response was they condemned outrageously this video and to apologize for it when it wasn’t the US government that produced it; it was a private US citizen. Number two the second statement that was made by Secretary Clinton was almost like a regret that we had the First Amendment. And third, the fact that the President actually contacted Google to take it down betrays the whole bedrock of Western civilization, free speech. So the problem here is that we acted as if we did something wrong, the US government, and two we reacted as if free speech was a curse that we should try to limit. That’s why I thought that the response was craven, we should have stood up for free speech, and I think it also reflects on the fact that the new Arab Spring was intended to basically sho
w that democracy in the Muslim world would allow new movements to emerge and use politics as a way of expressing themselves democratically. What it turns out is that they’re using it to basically impose autocratic or totalitarian rules. That is, they insist that free speech should not be allowed in the US and that criticism of Islam should be actually criminalized.”
Host: “Let’s talk a bit more about this film because whether or not this is what spawned these protests and the violence that we’re seeing, not just in the Islamic world but across the world now, is up for debate. There are some thoughts out there that this is a greater plot, which we can talk about in a second. But this film, the timing of its release in the Arab world, dubbed in Arabic, seems to lend a lot of credence to the fact that there is more to this than meets the eye. In fact, this film may be being used as a device to foment anti-American sentiment.”
Emerson: “You’re actually right on two points. One, first of all the film was actually put on YouTube in June, but on September 8th a major Egyptian television station put on ten minutes of the film. That’s what also started the inflammatory riots. And two, there was a report five days before the actual riots in the Egyptian Jemaah Islamiya – that’s a terrorist group that operates in Egypt now freely – issued a publication or sent some type of announcement that there wou8ld be riots against and protests against the US Embassy on September 13. So now there’s a question, why did US intelligence ignore this warning?
Host: That’s a good question Steven. I was
hoping to get an answer to that myself.
Emerson: I can tell you the House Intelligence
Committee is going to be investigating it this week.]

Libya’s president says embassy attack planned by al-Qaeda
The attack on the US consulate in Benghazi that killed four Americans and ten Libyans was the work of “experienced masterminds” that had been planned well in advance, “I think this was al-Qaeda,” Mohamed al-Magarief, the Libyan president, said to Al Jazeera in an interview with Hoda Abdel-Hamid.
i believe him (as well as several others who
have stated the same, not to mention AQ et
al claiming the attacks)..

“IT” began in the 7th century..
1700 B.C.: ‘Alla’ god of ‘violence and revolution’
[He said it appears “Alla” “is an ancestral deity who was worshiped in
Mesopotamia.” The writings from the time talk about Allah’s death, he
explained.
“By the testimony of the Sumerians, it is clear that this Alla, or
Tammuz, was once an infamous king of Erech, to only be deified
by the superstitious masses of Mesopotamia.”]
Ayatollah Khomeini
“Those who know nothing of Islam pretend that Islam counsels
against war. Those [who say this] are witless. Islam says:
Kill all the unbelievers just as they would kill you all! Does this mean that Muslims should sit back until they are devoured by [the unbelievers]? Islam says: Kill them, put them to the sword and scatter [their armies]…. Islam says: Whatever good there is exists thanks to the sword and in the shadow of the sword! People cannot be made obedient except with the sword! The sword is the key to Paradise, which can be opened only for the Holy Warriors! There are hundreds of other [Qur’anic] psalms and Hadiths [sayings of the Prophet] urging Muslims to value war and to fight. Does all this mean that Islam is a religion that prevents men from waging war? I spit upon those foolish souls who make such a claim.”
Imperial History of the Middle East
What Thomas Jefferson learned
from the Muslim book of jihad
[From the time of the founding of the American Republic in 1776 to the final Barbary war in 1815, the United States contended with piracy and privateering conducted by the four so - called Barbary powers of North Africa - Algiers, Tunis, Tripoli, Morocco. "These petty Mahometan despots," in the words of the historian Henry Adams, extracted millions of dollars in tribute from the United States (and European powers) even as they held hundreds of Americans hostage, enslaving many, killing some, and releasing others. The Barbary pirates were, in fact, privateers, sponsored by their despots with the blessing of the Ottoman Empire, itself the beneficiary of handsome tributes from the Barbary powers.]
