ISIS recently released the 15th issue of its official magazine Dabiq. This latest issue is titled “
BREAK THE CROSS”. The issue focuses on waging war against Christians and the Sign of the Cross.
In the foreword to its magazine, ISIS damns Christians as “cross
worshipers,” pagans and idolaters because of their belief in the Holy
Trinity. It says Jesus Christ himself was a “slave to Allah” who will
return in the last days to wage jihad and “break the crosses”. ISIS
encourages followers to build upon the recent success in Normandy France
by expanding the attacks to all Christian churches, congregations and
pastors. In the recent attack in France, two ISIS terrorists entered a
Catholic church and slit the throat of an elderly priest on the altar
while he was saying mass. A nun was also critically injured in the
attack.
The magazine articles make it perfectly clear that there will be no
end to the killing of Christians until all of western civilization
embraces Islam:
“The fact is, even if you were to stop bombing us,
imprisoning us, torturing us, vilifying us, and usurping our lands, we
would continue to hate you because our primary reason for hating you
will not cease to exist until you embrace Islam.”
Citing analysts at the SITE intelligence group, the
Daily Mail and
Charisma News report that London, New York City and Washington, D.C. are at the top of the ISIS hit list of cities it plans to target next.
“Our Battle on Your Land Has Not Started Yet Be Upon You Only Waiting”
The Christian Times, in cooperation with the FBI, is reporting that ISIS is creating “
Kill Lists”
using online church directories to target churches, congregations and
pastors in Texas, New York, California and Florida. According to the
report, the “kill lists”
name nearly 15,000 Americans to be eliminated.
In an article titled “
ISIS: CHRISTIANS ARE PAGAN CROSS WORSHIPPERS”,
WND author Leo Hohmann reviews the latest issue of Dabiq and provides
insight from former FBI counter-terrorism specialist John Guandolo:
“On the one hand, ISIS calls on the population of Europe
to abandon their infidelity and accept Islam, the religion of sincerity
and submission to the Lord of the heavens and the earth. On the other
hand, they threaten continual warfare against those who do not”
Guandolo advises churches to
increase security and to use real men who are members of the church. He
adds that If they cannot find any men in the church who know how to use
weapons, they should close their doors.
The guidance in the new edition of Dabiq is clear. The next phase of
Islamic terrorism will target Christian churches, just like in France.
The magazine gives firm orders to all the lone-wolfs and ISIS cells
operating in America; attack Christians in their churches, immediately.
“We call you to reflect on these questions as the
bloodthirsty knights of the Caliphate continue to wage their war of just
terror against you.”
“Follow the final messenger, Muhammad g, for in doing so you will be
following all of the prophets If you refuse, then we offer you the
option to pay jizyah and live under the authority of Islam in
humiliation. If you refuse, then the only thing between you and us is
the sword.” – Abu Sa’d at-Trinidadi
COMMENT FROM OATH KEEPERS FOUNDER, STEWART RHODES:
“If you refuse, then the only thing between you and us is the sword.”
– Abu Sa’d at-Trinidadi. That works both ways. The only thing
between you and us is the sword. Sounds good. Bring it.
“Guandolo advises churches to increase security and to use
real men who are members of the church. He adds that If they cannot find
any men in the church who know how to use weapons, they should close
their doors.”
That statement is a bit ironic. To “use real men who are members of the church,” you first have to have
real men
in the church – as in men who act like men and close with, and kill the
enemy when he shows up, not like the wimpy Frenchmen in that Catholic
church in Normandy. And to think of all the American, British, and
Canadian REAL MEN who fought, bled, and died in Normandy, only to have
the modern, emasculated,
French metro-sexuals flee from the church,
screaming like school-girls, as their elderly priest had his throat slit
by two Jihadist goblins. What the hell did our men die for? For a
France that is now a perfect petri dish full of Jizyah paying
dhimminitude? Where the cry is o longer “Vive la France!” but is
instead “better a live coward, than a dead hero, let the old priest fend
for himself!” My Grandfather on my father’s side fought as an
infantryman in the Battle of the Bulge. I am now glad he has long since
passed on so he didn’t have to see what has become of the Europe he
fought for.
But what about here in America? Are there real men in your church?
Are they armed and “switched on” during service, to safeguard the
church and those who worship inside? Are the morally, psychologically,
and physically prepared to close with and kill the enemy when he shows
up? This threat is real, and it is going to happen here. A church will
be hit. And it might be yours. Get ready. Go armed, in church, and
organize your church men’s group into an armed security force for the
church. They must all be armed, since you can’t reason with a
jihadist. You can’t “negotiate” with him. The only way to change his
mind is with a bullet. I recommend semi-automatic, high capacity
handguns of at least 9mm caliber, with at least one spare magazine, and a
no-nonsense knife. And then, at a minimum, a couple of shotguns
discretely hidden but within easy reach of members of the security team.
And it would be foolish to rely only on armed men inside the church.
You need men on the outside too. At the very least, you need a minimum
of two armed men outside the church (and ideally they should have
rifles nearby, in addition to their handguns), who are watching who
approaches the church (more is better, including someone who is not
easily seen, such as sitting in a car watching from a distance). Then
you need at least two in the main entry way, watching who enters and
what they do as they enter. Then you need at least two more carrying
concealed in the main room, watching the entrances and the people in the
church, not the sermon. And if you really want your
pastor/preacher/priest to be safe, then assign at least two men to guard
him, within ten feet of him at all times. They are there to push the
pastor down out of the line of fire, or to tackle or shoot a close range
threat. Think in layers, and in multiple teams of two. No man
should work alone. Always in teams of two or more. And they need
radios, so they can communicate (and ideally earpieces so they can do so
discretely).
And encourage others in the congregation to also go armed, and to
join the security team. Get them all trained and practiced in working
together, and prepare yourselves for what is coming.
We here at Oath Keepers can, and will help. We would be happy to
have our experienced military and police veterans come to your church,
do a security assessment, and help to train your men’s group (and the
ladies too!) to protect the church. Many of our members have recent
training and experience dealing with active shooters, terrorists, and
high threat environments (many of them spent considerable time in Iraq
and Afghanistan). We can help. Just email us and put “church security
training” in the subject line. This is exactly what our Community
Preparedness Teams (CPTs) are supposed to be doing – training the
community to defend itself. That is job one for a CPT. And given the
threat, those CPTs need to give high priority to any church that
requests help.
And, if your church is on an ISIS hit list, or if it has received a
direct threat, or you otherwise believe your threat-level is very high,
then contact us and we will do our best to put a security team of Oath
Keepers on your church until you can get one of your own trained up.
But the ultimate goal should be for the men in the church to be the ones
to guard the church.
Get ready. It is coming.
