The preaching of jihad has not stopped with the advent of the coronavirus. Instead, the Islamic State is using the pandemic as a new justification for murder in the way of Allah. At first they were relatively quiet amid the coronavirus pandemic, but jihad groups worldwide were bound to come up with an Islamic answer to their new limitations:
Analysts observed that Islamist groups are calling for a step up in attacks worldwide, via their online networks, as governments and security agencies concentrate their efforts and resources on combatting Covid-19 and maintaining social order under lockdown…Jihadi groups, including Islamic State and Qaeda, celebrated coronavirus, describing the contagion as a “small soldier of Allah”. Analysts report that the Islamist militants see the virus as a divine punishment sent against Western countries and against Muslims who are not sufficiently devout, and sent with the purpose of facilitating jihad against them.
The Islamic State teaches that fighting jihad is the surest way to guarantee protection from the virus. This is derived from the belief in normative Islam that jihad is the highest calling for a Muslim (cf. Quran 4:95) and comes with the greatest rewards. More is to come: Ramadan is the month of jihad, and it is less than a week away.
“Jihadists celebrate coronavirus “small soldier” as deadly terrorist activity rises under Covid-19 lockdown in Africa,” Barnabas Fund, April 13, 2020:
Jihadi groups, including Islamic State and al-Qaeda, celebrated coronavirus, describing the contagion as a “small soldier of Allah”. Analysts report that the Islamist militants see the virus as a divine punishment sent against Western countries and against Muslims who are not sufficiently devout, and sent with the purpose of facilitating jihad against them. Islamic State’s online magazine highlights that the virus has killed more Americans than 9/11. Alexander Meleagrou-Hitchens, director of research at The George Washington University’s Program on Extremism, has commented, “They argue that fighting jihad is the surest way to guarantee protection from the virus.”
Boko Haram and Islamic State in West Africa Province (ISWAP) activities in the notorious Lake Chad area are reported to be on the rise while Chad and neighbouring Nigeria are under Covid-19 lockdown. A spate of deadly Islamist militant attacks was recorded in several territories in early April.
In Adamawa State, Nigeria, Fulani militant herdsmen raided Kirchinga village on the 6 April wounding a man in the leg and destroying houses and shops. Just a day earlier, on 5 April, Boko Haram had ambushed a Nigerian Army convoy, killing 47 soldiers.
In Bamba in northern Mali, also on 6 April, Muslim militants attacked a military base killing 25 Malian soldiers before they were repelled
In the Far North Cameroonian town of Amchide, two Boko Haram terrorists detonated suicide bombs on 5 April, killing seven and injuring 15 in the predominately Christian region. Two teenagers and a village leader were among the dead…..

After we have dealt with the virus and its threat to world order and prosperity, the next disease and cancer to be cut out is surely this one. It’s time.

RAMADAN is the MONTH OF JIHAD.
Those delusional fanatics are immune to facts and reason. They even interpret setbacks as part of Allah’s strategic deception leading them to victory.
They are similar to many German soldiers in the spring of 1945 who still believed Nazi Germany was going to win.

Quote: “Jihadi groups, including Islamic State and al-Qaeda, celebrated coronavirus”
The slogan of jihadists is: “We love death”.
They are FATALISTIC. Whenever people die, Allah is doing it. Whatever Allah does is peachy. It’s part of Allah’s deceptive master plan and a brilliant plot against enemies of Islam.
They delusionally convince themselves that Allah is calling them to push jihad more firmly and achieve a breakthrough for Islam.

As dhimmocrat politicians both release and demand the release of cons from jail and prison. Future social disruption possible, Where ever large enough populations of saracens exist, I can for see participation of gangs, drug cartels, antifas, recently released cons, and dhimmicrats in similar actions as notated in this post. Alinskite tactics. Hope not.

Maybe that is the reason the the Democrats keep pushing for people to stay home, so we can get killed by these Monsters from Hell, we would all be sitting ducks with Molotov Cocktails in each home. They need to kill off the population for the betterment of the great ELITE. The Georgia Guide Stones were built by the CFR.

You are mistaken in believing that Republicans want to see this happen.

This Jihad group needs to find their C-19 small soldiers and celebrate with them so they can get their share of the virgins.
