Amish Militants Stab 12 People in 12 Separate Attacks

Admit it, that would be a shocking headline if it were true. Why? Because some religions are actually peaceful.

Islam, however, is not.

It isn't Amish militants stabbing people, of course, it is orthodox Muslims. Stabbing is the new trend in killing infidels. Paul Alster reports:

The knife has replaced suicide bombings, car attacks and random shootings as the new tool of choice for waging jihad on Israel, with leaders blatantly calling for Palestinians young and old to take up the kitchen implement and kill.

While cars careening into crowds was the trend in terror last year — with hit songs in Gaza and the West Bank praising "martyrs" behind the wheel — this year Hamas and Palestinian Authority leaders, clerics and newspaper editors are openly encouraging stabbings that have so far killed a dozen and wounded 167 since Oct. 1. Through sermons, social media, online blogs, editorial cartoons and TV and radio reports, the message seems to be that anyone can pick up a knife and advance the cause.

“Restrain the victim while others attack him with axes and butcher knives," influential Sheikh Muhammad Salakh recently preached as he brandished a knife in a sermon that was widely viewed within the territories. "Do not fear what will be said about you. Oh men of the West Bank, next time, attack in a group of three, four, or five. Attack them in groups. Cut them into body parts.”

What kind of religion is this? In case you didn't catch it, let me highlight a few phrases: "hit songs in Gaza and the West Bank praising martyrs... clerics and newspaper editors openly encouraging stabbings... Through sermons, social media, online blogs, editorial cartoons and TV and radio reports, the message seems to be that anyone can pick up a knife and advance the cause." The only religion that would do this is Islam.
