BorealISLAM-AT-WAR TRUISMS1. Jurisdictions governed by the likes of the Ayatollahs with access to nuclear weapons must inevitably lead to would-be martyrs committing a mass slaughter in Allah’s Cause (a Sharia-governed world) so horrendous that a grateful god may want to reward them with a Firdaus of their own. 2. Dissuading martyrdom by telling the truth about sex in Paradise, leaving only skipping life in the grave as an admittedly compelling incentive to perish while committing unspeakable atrocities in Allah's Cause. "O Martyrs! Your clamours echo in the ears of time. Enduring, continuing, and eternal." From the Iranian national anthem. “We are called a nation of martyrs, and we are proud to sacrifice martyrs,” said Hamas Official Ghazi Hamad. The first mention of martyrdom in the Koran. 3. Trump promises to kill as many people as it takes to get Iran to surrender. Israel tried that in Gaza killing more than 75,000, 53% of them women and children, and still no surrender. Promising to kill people with a death wish is not a deterrent but an incentive. It is a strategy doomed to failure. 4. Yesterday, March 9, CNN reported that Islamic Revolutionary Guards had been seen taking up positions and placing weapons in and around schools. Why Islamic fanatics have no qualms about placing children in harm’s way for the propaganda value when they are inevitably killed as happened in Gaza. 5. Keeping the Strait of Hormuz open to shipping will decide the wisdom of the United States and Israel attacking Iran without a plan to control this strategic waterway. It was a general Hormuz who failed to stop the Muslim invasion of Persia. The Muslims succeeded where the Americans and Israelis appear destined to fail because they were not into half-measures. 6. The more intense the bombing, the greater will be the resolve of the survivors to avenge the lost of loved ones; a sentiment fully endorsed by the Koran. The United States, in particular, is in for a generation of hurt. 2:179 In retaliation there is life for you, O people of understanding, that you may be God-fearing. 7. The only condition under which Allah will allow Iran to call for peace, if not surrender: 8. Taqiya, the Islamic Doctrine of Dissimulation, i.e., lying as a means of advancing Allah’s Cause also applies to holy hostilities. 4:71-72 O believers, be on your guard; so march in detachments or march altogether. Indeed, among you is one who will stay behind, so that if a disaster befalls you, he will say: “Allah has favoured me, since I have not been a martyr with them.” 4:73 If, however, a bounty from God comes to you, he will say, as though there was no friendship between you and him: “Would that I had been with them; then I would have won a great victory.” 9. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth’s war-mongering bombast is no match for a god with a track record as an inspirational motivator going back more than a thousand years with an empire acquired by the sword stretching from Morocco to Indonesia as evidence. For more about Islam-at-war please read Jihad in the Koran. The Major would approve.
