This Week in Jihad for August 15, 2016

Monday, August 15th, 2016

Welcome to the return of this week in jihad! (And by “this week” I mean “since the last time I did a roundup.”)

  • Man harpooned in brawl over photo of women in burkinis in Corsica.” (Hat tip Instapundit.)
  • 91 killed by suicide bombers in Baghdad in July.
  • Two teenage Muslim “refugees” rape a five year old girl in Idaho while a third films the attack.
  • “Germany’s migrant rape crisis has now spread to cities and towns in all 16 of Germany’s federal states.”
  • Eleven Muslim separatist bombing attacks in Thailand in one day.
  • Could France be facing a civil war between natives and Islamic immigrants? Maybe, but it’s hard to put much credence in this article when he says “Benoit, a local olive farmer who owns more than a dozen rifles, pistols and shotguns, as well as an AK-47 assault rifle, admitted to me this weekend something much darker.” Fully automatic rifles are illegal in France last I checked, so I rather doubt “Benoit” has one, much less shows it to random Brits swanning about. Cue the journalists guide to firearms identification. (Hat tip: Borepatch.)
  • “Muslim migrants want Islamization of Europe.”
  • Sharia Police” patrolling Hamburg?
  • Authorities in Norrtälje, Sweden are asking wealthy homeowners to give up their summer homes for “Syrian refugees.” (Hat tip: Sarah Hoyt at Instapundit.)
  • Islamic State in Libya loses control of Sirte.
  • Ding Dong, The Witch is Dead

    Moammar Gadhafi, that is, in the Libyan city of Sirte. Although there are conflicting reports that he was only wounded, but this (graphic) video from the Telegraph shows someone who looks: A.) An awful lot like Gadhafi, and B.) An awful lot like dead.

    Another (graphic) video from Al Jazerra:

    Also reported dead: Moammar Gadhafi, Muammar el-Qaddafi, Moammar Kadafi, Muammar Gaddafi, Muammar Gadafy, Moammar Gaddafi, and Moammar Khaddafy.

    According to the BBC, he was founding hiding in a drainage pipe, much like Saddam Hussein was pulled from his spider hole.

    This is good news for Libya, for the United States, and the world. Now if we can just keep Jihadests from taking over in Tripoli, Obama will have an actual foreign policy accomplishment on his resume.
