This man was crediting the religion of Islam for transforming his brother
into an unthinking killing machine. The motivation was purely racist:
Bukhari:V1B1N6 "Just issue orders to kill every Jew in the country."
Innocent blood still dripping from his hands, Mas'ud proclaimed for all
the
world to hear: "Muhammad ordered me to murder." Today's terrorists haven't
corrupted their religion; their religion has corrupted them.
While hideous, this act does not stand alone. Soon thereafter, Muhammad
ordered Muslims to assassinate Sallam. Tabari, Islam's earliest historian,
explains: Tabari VII:101 "They asked the Prophet for permission to kill
Sallam. He granted it." Tabari VII:99 "When they got to Khaybar they went
to
Sallam's house by night, having locked every door in the settlement on the
inhabitants. He was in an upper chamber. His wife came out and asked who
we
were. We told her that we were Arabs in search of supplies. She told us
that
her husband was in bed. We entered and bolted his door. His wife shrieked
and warned him of us, so we ran at him with our swords as he lay on his
bed.
When we had smitten him Abdallah bore down his sword into his belly until
it
went right through him. 'By the God of the Jews, he is dead!' Never have I
heard sweeter words than those. We returned to Allah's Apostle and told
him
that we had killed his enemy. We disputed before him as to who had killed
him, each of us laying claim to the deed. Muhammad demanded to see our
swords and when he looked at them he said, 'It is the sword of Abdallah
that
killed him; I can see traces of food on it.'" Deceiving victims is still
standard operating procedure for Muslim militants. Attacking defenseless
civilians is the very definition of terror. And so is gloating. Today's
Islamic terrorists are as eager as Muhammad's original henchmen to claim
"credit" for their deeds.
