The Jihad propaganda machine claims that its genocide is ‘resistance’ and that resistance to its genocide is genocide. The truth is as always the opposite. Resisting Islamic genocide is the best defense against genocide.By Daniel Greenfield, Frontpage MagazineOn Oct 7, 2023, thousands of Muslim Jihadis swept from Gaza into Israel, killing, torturing, raping and kidnapping anyone in their path.The victims included not only Israelis or Jews, but Americans and Europeans, Christians and Buddhists, as well as those Bedouins whom the Hamas, PLO and Islamic Jihad attackers did not consider Muslims.Their rationale was not a “Palestinian” cause or any of the later war propaganda myths about an “open air prison”, but an Islamic religious imperative to drive out infidels.That’s why they named their genocidal campaign, ‘Al-Aqsa Flood’ after their occupation mosque planted in Jerusalem that they hoped to reclaim when they had killed or enslaved all the infidels in Israel.In their earliest statements when they thought they were winning, Hamas leaders emphasized their religious agenda, of seizing the Al Aqsa Mosque and driving out the infidels, not a ‘Palestinian’ cause or the partial Israeli embargo on its limited border with Gaza.That was the only ‘genocide’ that occurred in the last two years. It just isn’t being called one.The Oct 7 genocide had nothing to do with any ‘national liberation’ for some imaginary ‘Palestinian’ people. It followed over a thousand years of Islamic invasions, mass slaughters, slavery and mass rape across the region.The Jews, once a conquered people, had been the ones to rebel against Islamic rule in Israel through groups such as NILI (Netzach Israel Lo Yishaker – The Eternal One of Israel Does Not Lie) and fight for freedom from Islamic rule.Muslim Jihads against Jews began shortly afterward.The wars against Israel by Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Muslim countries from as far away as Iraq, Iran and Yemen were not about an imaginary ‘Palestinian’ nationality at a time when Gaza, Judea and Samaria were occupied by Arab Muslim nations, but about the religious and tribal genocide aimed at any ‘Other’ group.No one in the international community who spreads the lie that Israel’s self-defense is ‘genocide’ has dared to apply that label to the Turkish Islamic campaign against the Kurds, the Syrian Arab Islamic massacre of the Druze or any of the other numerous ongoing Islamic tribal ethnic cleansing campaigns that have made the region what it is.When Muslims claim that they’re the ‘indigenous’ people, it’s because they massacred and enslaved everyone else.Including the Jews.Even when ISIS openly declared that it was enslaving and killing the Yazidi people in line with the teachings of Islam, the same voices slurring ‘Zionism’ as genocidal, loudly declared that the Islamic scholars of the Islamic State were completely wrong about Islam. But what ISIS was doing is exactly what was done to the Druze, the Kurds, the Armenians, the Christians of the region, along with numerous other minorities, and the Jews. Jihad is Arabic for genocide.Since Oct 7, the only tool in the Jihad propaganda playbook has been moral inversion.Hamas accuses Israel of killing children and then parades the coffins of murdered Jewish children about. It claims genocide, cries famine and cruelty, and demands a ceasefire, even as its leaders promise that once they’re ready, they’ll finish the job and wipe out the Jews.This discourse is whitewashed and laundered by the media which attributes Hamas war propaganda to “Gaza officials”, “health officials”, “journalists”, “rescue workers”, “police” and anyone else tasked by Hamas with serving as an interface between it and the outside world.Politicians unthinkingly parrot Hamas lies, including its ceaseless campaign to reclaim control over food aid coming into Gaza by spreading the myth that Israel keeps killing civilians at Gaza Humanitarian Foundation food distribution sites, and the media builds them into towering narratives, propping up the moral inversion of genocide to cover the actual Islamic genocide.Every accusation coming out of the Jihad propaganda machine is really a confession.And if there were any doubts that Hamas rhetoric about wiping out Israel and its Jewish population is sincere, the Muslim Brotherhood terror group got a chance to show it on Oct 7. Apologists for Islamic terrorism previously argued that the terrorists acted out of “desperation”, that they had no choice but to set off suicide bombs on buses and pizzerias, but there was no desperation in the massacres that occurred when the Jihadis found a civilian population at their mercy.They murdered women, children and the elderly, they beheaded foreign workers, and in their glee, they engaged in brutal atrocities that undermined the larger aims of their campaign.Lazy journalists might be tempted to call them “senseless”, but that’s because they don’t understand Islam. When the Jihadis chant “Allahu Akbar” while killing non-Muslims, they are engaged in a transcendent religious experience that allows them to feel that they are bringing the power of the murderous deity they worship into this world by defeating non-Muslims.And when they chant “Khaybar Ya Yahood” or “Remember Khaybar, O Jews”, a common event at anti-Israel rallies, they are connecting Mohammed’s ancient ethnic cleansing of the Jews of Arabia to their planned ethnic cleansing of the Jews of Israel and of the world in the present.The Jihad is genocidal. But that’s because the worship of Islam is fundamentally genocide.Unlike other religions, the primary mission of Islam is to enforce the will of Allah by destroying the power of all other religions and cultures, subjugating them to the will of an Islamic master race, enforced civilly by the codes of Sharia religious law and militarily through Jihad. Muslim Brotherhood front groups use moral inversion to denounce such statements of the historical and present day beliefs of Islam as ‘Islamophobia’ or hateful conspiracy theories, but they can be seen in the entire history of Islam, in the present day actions of Muslim nations and in the future plans of Islamic movements to spread across the rest of the world and subjugate all of it.Muslims are currently in a state of religious war with not only Jews or even Christians, but also with Hindus in India and Buddhists in Burma. When a single ideology representing a quarter of humanity has been in a state of endless war with the religions representing at least another 60% of the planet, it’s pretty clear who has the problem here. And it’s not the Christians, Jews, Hindus and Buddhists being bombed, beheaded, stabbed and shot at all around the world.Israel, America, Russia, China and the rest of the world aren’t saints, but there’s a reason that Muslims typically enjoy more rights in non-Muslim countries than non-Muslims do in Muslim countries like Pakistan, Saudi Arabia or Iran.There’s also a reason why many Muslims move to non-Muslim countries while few non-Muslims move to Muslim ones. The hate is mostly one way.Muslim propagandists pretend that like the Arab Muslim Jihad against Israel, branded a ‘special case’ of a ‘Palestinian’ minority fighting against the Jews, all their Jihads are special cases.When Muslims massacre Hindu tourists, it’s because they’re fighting for Kashmir, when they randomly stab people in Europe, it’s because their ‘asylum seekers’ are denied citizenship, and when they bomb churches in Nigeria, it’s because the government insists on fighting terrorism.There’s always an excuse that positions Muslims as victims and a minority group, a ‘special case’ of a persecuted people desperately rising up in self-defense, but that big lie, a lie so big that Goebbels would quail at it, falls apart the moment you look at how Muslim countries treat non-Muslims, at the way that they ally together to attack non-Muslims outside their borders, and at the mission statement of Islamic terrorists to gather the ‘Ummah’, the collective Muslims of the world, to unite under a ‘Caliphate’ to rule the world. This isn’t victimhood. It’s genocide.No one dares call Jihad ‘genocide’. Instead, the ‘genocide’ label is most often applied to those courageous nations that, alone and isolated, resist the genocidal Islamic Jihad against them.Israel is one of them.The Jihad propaganda machine claims that its genocide is ‘resistance’ and that resistance to its genocide is genocide. The truth is as always the opposite. Resisting Islamic genocide is the best defense against genocide.The entire Oct 7 war was set off by an Islamic genocide plot. The closer Israel comes to destroying the genocidal Jihadis, the more they and their useful idiots across the world, shout “genocide”, and traffic in the most outlandish lies and smears to save the Jihadis so that they can launch an actual genocide against the people of Israel.A few million Jews in Israel have stood off the genocidal campaign of the 400 million Muslim majority of the region in a miraculous and heroic campaign of resistance against utter evil.They won every war, but lost every argument, and the monsters who came to wipe out every last man, woman and child in Israel shout that they are the real victims of genocide, they brandish papers full of fake numbers, they tweet AI atrocity photos and put on makeup for the cameras.But if anyone wants to see a real genocide, look at the Middle East, a region that was once rich in religious diversity where 91% of the population is now Muslim. How did that happen?Was the prospect of being able to take four wives, marry girls as young as seven years old and bask in virgins with eternally regenerating hymens in paradise so appealing that everyone converted?History tells us a very different and much uglier story that is still going on to this very day. It’s a story written in bombed churches, captured girls and streams of refugees fleeing the region.But where everyone else fled or submitted, the Jews of Israel are still resisting the Jihad. They’re not committing genocide. They’re resisting the Islamic genocide that overran the region.Jihad is genocide. Fighting Jihad is not genocide. It’s resistance.The post The jihad against Israel is genocide appeared first on World Israel News.
