Video: It’s A Dog’s Life

You may have heard that dogs are considered unclean (haraam) by Muslims. You may have heard of Muslim taxi drivers refusing to pick up blind wannabe passengers with seeing-eye dogs for this reason. There are only a few verses about dogs in the Koran, none of them too terrible. The Hadith, on the other hand, which is a collection of Islamic sayings and traditions, is replete with canine references. Here are two:

Bukhari Vol. 4, #540: Narrated ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar: Allah’s Apostle ordered that the dogs should be killed.

Abu Dawud #2839: Abd Allah B. Mughaffal reported the apostle of Allah as saying: Were dogs not a species of creature I should command that they all be killed; but kill every pure black one.

Muslim #3813: Abu Zubair heard Jabir Abdullah saying: Allah’s messenger ordered us to kill dogs and we carried out this order so much so that we also killed the dog roaming with a women from the desert. Then Allah’s apostle forbade their killing. He said: “It is your duty to kill the jet-black (dog) having two spots (on the eyes) for it is a devil.

These Islamic references to killing dogs highlight the striking difference between Muslim and Jewish attitudes toward dogs. Islamic thought likens dogs to the devil and calls for killing them. Islamic thought says a dog’s saliva is unclean. Saying Islamic prayers in front of dogs, renders those prayers null and void.

The Hebrew word for dog, on the other hand is “Kelev” which means, “like the heart.”

Indeed, when I watched the following clip (hat tip to Elder of Ziyon) it was as if my heart were being ripped out of my chest and set alight. (WARNING: Graphic and disturbing footage).

I only watched half before I just couldn’t take it anymore.

I haven’t been able to get the sight or the sound out of my mind all day. A friend who is an animal lover asked me why on earth I watched it at all.

I watched this clip because I feel it is important to know what we’re dealing with here. These men are possessed by evil. You can see it in the cruel, unfeeling way they shoot these poor animals and fling them into the backs of garbage trucks, not even stopping to ascertain whether they are really dead. These are the same men who behead the innocent, and steal young girls out of school rooms for their personal pleasure.

The pained cries of these animals were as knives being driven into the heart: k’lev. Like the heart. Like my heart HURT seeing and hearing that!

It made me think of the Holocaust and of cold unfeeling Nazis throwing newborn babies up into the air (as their mothers watched!) to see how many times their bullets could hit the moving targets before they fell to the ground.

It made me think of wheelbarrows full of bodies to be transported to the crematorium, like garbage to be burned off into smoke and ashes.

It made me think of bodies turned into soap and lampshades made of human skin.

Sometimes I am positive that the West hasn’t a clue what they are up against when they think of ISIS or Hamas or Boko Haram or an Iran with nuclear weapons. And I think: if only they would watch this clip, they would finally understand. What they do in this clip to dogs? It’s emblematic. It’s a symptom of the disease of evil.

A Jew is to these men, the same as a dog. To them, a nuclear Iran sounds like a great idea! It would be one way to clean up the “garbage” of the Middle East.

This is what President Obama wants to enable. This is why he has no red lines and why he is desperate to keep Benyamin Netanyahu from addressing Congress. It’s a process that he, the President, doesn’t want stopped.

It’s a process he has decided must happen.

I won’t offer up any conspiracy theories because it doesn’t much matter why he, Obama, feels this way. It doesn’t matter why he wants us not to think that Jewish targets are targeted because they are Jewish. What matters is that we open our eyes and see the truth for what it is: Muslims want to hunt Jews down like dogs in the street and kill them for sport. And President Obama’s sympathies are with these men of Islam and not with the Jews of Europe, Israel, or any other place you can name.

Here is something important to remember: His issue, the President’s issue with naming things, does not have to be our problem. We can call it Islamic terrorism. We can say it, name it, and own it for what it is.

We can say it’s not random when Jews are targeted and killed by Muslims. And where God’s innocent creatures are hunted down and killed for sport, we can recognize the Devil and be utterly repulsed.
