137 killed, 345 injured in Yemen bombing attacks

[SrNair]

Rest In Peace .A 1500 old age conflict is still going on with more bloodshed.

 

[Kambojaric]

Everyone is so desensitised that it's just a statistic to them (including me). RIP to all innocents and terrorists may you burn for eternity.

Thats the horrifying thing. Its just so depressing to think that these 137 were real people, had family members, parents, children who will never see them again. May God bring peace to this country, RIP.

It was only yesterday that your brothers killed dozens in Tunisia in a holy mission, now you are right here cursing Iran. You guys deserve what's happening to you, if of course, all others have the same mentality like you. Don't worry, no matter how much you curse Iran from behind monitor, your brothers will still target you and kill you in your own country. With backward mentality like this, it's no wonder that some people find it as a holy act to blow up themselves in a market or street or to assault a museum and kill tourists. They emerge from 'your society', they didn't come from Iran. When you have thousands of people joining Daesh from tiny Tunisia, you know there is indeed something wrong somewhere in this society, you are just brainwashed to see Iran as the bogey man, the 'eternal enemy' which is understandable considering what they teach you in schools and mosques. The same mosques that raise a generation of suicide bombers and terrorists.

Deep down you know exactly what I'm talking about, but for saving face, you'll never admit that.

It is because, the political reality in these countries has narrowed to only two choices: Either a puppet status or the extremist ideology. They have no other choice. That is why you see so much hate coming out of them. They are a confused people. They have no leaders and no ideology that can explain the world to them and guide them. This problem is not only in Tunisia either, it is now everywhere even among Sunnis who live in the West. That is why when they look at Shia and allies of Shia, they get extremely hateful in their inferiority complex. As you can see the government of Tunisia has declared a war against these extremists but the Tunisian society is churning out more extremism. It is a civilization fight for them. An intra-Sunni war, for supremacy between two factions in their societies: Puppets and Extremists.

Iran had the fortune to have developed its own ideology and maintain independence. Without these, Iran would not have been any different.

Dude, in your own country tens of thousands of people have been killed by this same ideology. And Pakistani government is not a Shia government or its army is not "Maliki army" under the "control" of Iran.

In Tunisia, the same ideology kills people. Tunisian government is not under "control" of Iran.

In Egypt the same ideology is active. Iran has no presence in Egypt.

In Indonesia, the most populous Sunni country, the same ideology kills people. Indonesian government is not under the "control" of Iran.

Get a grip.

Iran is only helping people who are DEMANDING and REQUESTING help against this ideology.

If it is undesirable for Pakistanis to submit to this ideology and is desirable for Pakistani military to wage a full war against this ideology, then so is for Yemenis, Iraqis and Syrians.

Stop hypocrisy. Stop double standards.

The problem with a segment of people is that they think Shias and Houthis and Allawite should live under this Takfiri ideology but they themselves do not want to live under it. Make up your mind. Either it is good for everyone or it is not good for everyone.

It seems purpose of these attacks is not only to raise prospects of full sectarian war but also as you said earlier to begin differentiating between all people. If indeed ISIS is responsible, it has attacked Sunni Kurds in similiar way. That is because they believe Kurds are anti-Islam based on their objectives/intentions. Being a Muslim by name doesn't make you one. Your actions do. The goal here is to root out those who are by name only through these terrorist attacks and further divide society. To point where you will have two camps, one camp that states if this is Islam then we don't believe it. Or the other that doesn't necassirly agree with nature of attacks but recognizes that other pledges are Islamic. One supports Sharia, other supports secular states. One supports regional insurgency, other prefers national armies. The gaps are deepening the more these attacks happen. I believe this is the goal here, they will keep repeating these attacks since Arab world is in state of confusion/chaos in hope that confused people eventually find justification to oppose the secular camp. At same time they have minor campaign to convince European christians of this too, claiming that the struggle isn't limited to Arabs but all peoples who want to change the world. Deeper divisions await the region in the future.

This is what's happening:

Abu Hurayrah reported that Nabi (saw) said “Woe to the Arabs for the great evil which is nearly approaching them, it will be like patches of dark night. A man will wake up as a believer and be a kaafir by nightfall. People will sell their deen for a small amout of worldly goods. The one who clings to his deen on that day will be as one who is grasping a burning coal or thorns.” (AHMAD [2/390])

Abu Moosa al Ashari reported that Nabi (saw) said "Before the hour comes there will be a fitnah like the patches of dark night. A man will get up a believer and go to sleep a kaafir, or will go to sleep a believer and get up a kaafir. The one who sits will be better than one who stands, and one who stands will be better than one who runs. Break your bows, cut their strings and strike your swords against stones. If someone comes to kill any of you then be like the better of the two sons of Adam." (ABU DAWOOD)

On the authority of Abdullah bin Omar(RA). Once the Sahabah were seated with the Prophet (saw) and he (saw) began to relate to them some of the fitan (trials and tribulations) the Ummah will face. Then he (saw) said, “Then will come to you the fitna of the Duhayma, it will not leave any one of you from this Ummah except that it will reach them all, and when they say that the fitna has ended, it will increase, at that time a man will awake as a Muslim but will go to sleep as a Kaafir until all the people will become divided into two (clear) camps; the camp of Imaan, wherein there is no hypocrisy and the camp of hypocrisy, wherein there is no Imaan (belief). When this occurs, await the Dajaal on that day or shortly afterwards.” (Sunan Abu Dawood, Vol. 2 Pg. 496, Hadith no. 4242)

As I explained in my Post number 33 on this thread, this is a fight between two groups among Sunnis. The extremists and the puppets (you can call them seculars/nationalists). The extremists draw their power and legitimacy from a radicalized society whose ideology is based on crude and raw interpretation of religion. The puppets draw their power and legitimacy from outside their society, mostly from their military in addition to alliance with foreign countries and international law.

The reason for situation having become this way, is the lack of a political ideology among Sunnis. What do they want? What are their goals in life? How they are going to get it? Who are their leaders? They have no answer to these questions. Both the puppets and the extremists.

It is an intra-civilizational fight among Sunnis. Shias are just easy targets that both these groups can agree on. Apart from this, they have no commonality between themselves.

At its core, it is not a Shia-Sunni war. It is a Sunni-Sunni war. The Sunni world has failed to come up with its own political ideology relevant to modern times. So they have been left with only two options. Either embrace TTP/Isis type of ideology. Or live as a puppet under puppet governments for puppet purposes with no real political roots or goals.

Iran and the Shias were lucky to have had some one like Ayatollah Khomeini who created a modern political interpretation for them, so that they do not need to choose between only these two options of extremism and puppetry. They have their own interpretation of religion from which they can derive political solutions. Otherwise, Shias would not have been immune to what is happening among Sunnis.

You do acknowledge the proxy war ?

 

[GBU-28]

Very sad, but inevitable when Iran decided to hijack another Arab country.

Much of the middle east problems stem from Iran.

Even with Gaza the Iranians won't allow a peace deal. I watched a very interesting talk by an Iranian who says that Iran uses Gaza whenever it needs 'distractions'.

Lebanon is Iran's, Iraq, Syria - so far Bahrain has managed to hold out.

It's a pity that useless idiot Obama caved in to the Iranians and didn't continue with the sanctions. We could have had the collapse of the Mullah regime.

 

[Daneshmand]

Did you acknowledge what I said?

Iran can not sit idle by while Isis takes over the whole region, massacring Sunni Kurds, Iraqi Shias, Syrian Allawites and Zaidi Yemenis. Iran will help its allies to prevent that. This is not proxy war.

Proxy war is when some one promotes and supports a group outside his country while at the same time fighting it inside his country. That is called proxy. Examples: Promoting Taliban in Afghanistan but fighting it in Pakistan. Promoting Isis in Syria but fighting it in Saudi Arabia and Tunisia. Promoting Mujahedin in USSR/Russia while fighting it in USA.

Stop the hypocrisy.

If you believe something is good for Syrians and Libyans, then it is good for Pakistanis too. If it is not, then it is not for either.

As you are aware, Pakistan military is fighting a war against only the Sunnis militants. Pakistani air force is bombing Sunni militants. It is the Sunni militants that are beheading your soldiers and blowing up markets and schools in Pakistan. Does this make Pakistan military a "sectarian" organization?

If Pakistani military can fight this same ideology and you do not believe Pakistani military is a sectarian force under the control of Shia Iran, then why blame Iraqi military or Yemenis? They also do not want to live under this ideology. The same as you do.

Stop the hypocrisy.

If this Saudi ideology is not good for you to live under, it is not good for Iran and its allies as well. Stop expecting Iran and its allies to live under this ideology, just because you want it or desire it.

Very sad, but inevitable when Iran decided to hijack another Arab country.

Get your propaganda somewhere else. You Takfiris have no nowhere to hide now. You have been exposed for the whole world to see your ugly faces.

No you are wrong. Arabs were primary target of European colonialism. Go read it up on Libya, Algeria or Palestine and what they went through in late 1800's to early-mid 1900's. You are trying to brand them as 'puppet peoples' which is wrong. They put up a fight that no Iranians will ever come close to have doing against colonialists and against US in modern day. It's not a 'Sunni-Sunni' war. It's a chaotic situation that draws in all people but certain ideals will prevail overtime, depending on who has most determination. It won't end in manner you are hoping for where Arabs are severely weakened allowing Iran to take over. The more Iran works towards collapses of Arab governments the more likelyhood Sunni Islamists gain power.

I disagree, it's not because of Khomeini but because of Persian identity that unites Iranians. Iranians in general don't like Islam and cling to their ancestral roots. They try denying this by branding Islam as 'Wahabism' and having their own interprettion of religion. In reality they aren't inspired by religion but rather by regaining what they believe was lost to Arabs; dignity. And Shia's support them in this case. Shia's today have common enemy which is why there isn't internal strife amongst them. Back then, such as in Lebanon during time where Arab nationalism prevailed, Syrian regime was killing Hezbollah members, Amal and vice-versa.

If you read about Islam, the Prophet stated that Islam will return to what it was in the beginning. Meaning it will go to grassroots and revive itself but in different nature then past. Today it is involving lots of violence because of drastic new culture that spread all over world(globalization). So it requires unorthodox methods which groups like ISIS are filling in. They are trying to cause radical changes in geopolitical situation of region to restore debate/concern amongst people. And at one point ISIS will take a vacation from the scene and the people will act in unpredictable ways.

Arab Sunni's will suffer as you correctly acknowledge that leadership is lacking. This is forcing young Arab Sunni men into taking lead. And therefore naturally it will be more violent as young people are more militant. And therefore unexpected chaos will ensue which only determined people can prevail in.

Very sad, but inevitable when Iran decided to hijack another Arab country.

Leave Gaza out of this, Iran has no influence in Gaza. Israel which besieges it and controls what goes in and out does. And Iranian-Palestinian relations are at all time low. What you said is untrue, Gaza never took orders from Iran and one conflict does not distract world from the others.

 

[GBU-28]

Get your propaganda somewhere else. You Takfiris have no nowhere to hide now. You have been exposed for the whole world to see your ugly faces.

Iran armed and funded Shia militia to overthrow Yemen and make it part of the Iranian sphere of influence.

You deranged Mullahs have caused another civil war in another Arab country.

It's not enough that a once democratic Christian country like Lebanon is now your playground, it's not enough that you dominate Iraqi politics and now Syria too.

Not enough for Iran which seeks to dominate.

AQ or ISIS may have been behind this bomb, but the blood is on the hands of the Iranian terrorist state that cannot stop interfering and usurping countries in the region.

Leave Gaza out of this, Iran has no influence in Gaza..

No. It's not like Iran owns Islamic Jihad who were the first to launch rockets in the summer which escalated into a conflict?

It's not as if they funnel arms and cash to Hamas eh?
