Jihadis Going for Armageddon

"Twin Towers" by Dolores Wesnak, 2002

This was it. This really was the beginning of the war. The Armageddon. Jihad in full force, in full speed, fully intentional. Islam entered the United States in the most dramatic of ways. It was not creeping sharia, or even stealthy jihad (whatever that is). It certainly wasn't hijra.

It was Jihad, in all its glory and all its euphoria. In the name of Allah, for the sake of Muslims, to purify the world of the apostates and infidels and render it immaculate for Islam, the jihadis bombed the iconic towers of America. They were going for the jugular.

We should have got this by now. Some of us do, others are stuck on categorizing Islam and Muslims into various unconnected parts. But Islam is united and Muslims are one. They take apostasy and contradiction of the Koran very seriously.

I don't know when they'll strike again, these jihadis - the avant-garde of the Muslims. Hijra and creeping sharia will work for a while, but after so many centuries, Allah is impatient. That is perhaps his greatest weakness. Yes, he's waited for twelve hundred years (well, six hundred after being kicked out of Spain), in the sidelines with thuggeries and violence here and there. But, his violence betrays his agitation. He is not a calm god.

Now he wants the big prize. The whole Western world is wavering under the anticipation of his wrath. Will he wait, or will he strike again?  

"No," he says, "not those interminable twelve hundred years. Not that tortuous wait, not that endless patience, it goes against my nature! But now I have that stooge in Iran, he’s mad enough and smart enough to start with my nemeses, those Jews, right across from his god-forsaken country. We’ll then just go from there."

"What's taking them so long to get it?" he chuckles to Mohammed who sits across from him, still in shock at what turned out to be paradise.
