We have been discussing the alarming and baffling migration of Muslim men and women from the West to join the blood-soaked Islamic State or ISIS forces as they behead and murder their way through captured territories. While the vast majority of Muslims are disgusted by ISIS, the chilling reality is that there is a large portion of people who do not just support but long to behead and torture other people. Oklahoma is facing precisely that reality in two cases involving Muslim men who appear to identify with ISIS and relish the concept of beheading people in the name of Islam. It is a fatal attraction that may explain the thousands flocking from the West to the ranks of the Islamic State.
In Oklahoma City, Jacob Mugambi Muriithi (left above), 30, is being held on a charge of a terrorism charge after he allegedly threatened to behead a co-worker. He was located less than 20 miles from where Alton Alexander Nolen (right above) who is accused of beheading a co-worker just the day before the threats were allegedly made.
Nolen had only recently converted to Islam in prison but immediately took to the aspects of the religion that he viewed as justifying murder and decapitations. Writing under the name “Jah’Keem Yisrael” on his Facebook page, he wrote various incendiary and bizarre messages:
“A Future Prophecy Revelation 18:8 She (The statue Of Liberty) is going into flames. She and anybody who’s with her.”
“AMERICA SO CALL HELPS IRAQ (WHICH NOT)- WELL WHY CANT U HELP THE GAZA CITIZENS AGAINST ISRAEL…AMERICA AND ISRAEL ARE WICKED. WAKE UP MUSLIMS!!!”
“I JST WANT TO SAY AS AN MUSLIM WE DNT CELEBRATE AMERIKAS HOLIDAYS.”
“KAFIR KAFIRS MEANS SOMEONES WHO DISAGREES WITH ISLAM. JST CAUSE YOU AS-SALAAMU ALAKIUN EVERY MORNING DNT MEANS YOUR AN MUSLIM THANK YOU THO.”
“Ima Tell You Off Top Im Not Your Friend My Friends Are At The Mosque All Around The World.”
“Im an Muslim from the Tribe of Judah who Was Pretty Much Raised In Killeen Texas. My Ancestors Who Are The True Jews Here In America Today Are Originally From Israel. They Were Bombed Outta Israel By The Roman Catholic Army So They Fled To Egypt And The Afrikans Sold Us To The White Man As Slaves Along With Any Other Black Person Here In Amerika Today Aka The True Jews From Israel. Our Ancestors Are Originally From Israel. Were Not from Afrika.”
“You know what gets me about Christians is that they blaspheme saying that Jesus (pbus Ameen) is God. If Jesus (pbuh Ameen) was God why when you claim he was on a cross he quoted Quote’ Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing? With this said he can’t be the Savior. All Praise To Allah,”
In one message, he declared “Islam Will Dominate the World. Freedom Can Go To Hell.”
He had been trying to convert people at his work and was telling co-workers about how women should be stoned for committing certain offenses. After he was fired, he returned and beheaded a female co-worker and stabbed another woman. After beheading Colleen Hufford, 54, and stabbing Traci Johnson’, 43, in the attack at Vaughan Foods store, he was shot and wounded by off-duty sheriff’s deputy and company CEO Mark Vaughan.
Nolen has a long previous criminal record including assault and battery on an officer, possession of a controlled substance, and escaping from detention.
Muriithi is identified as a native of Kenya who worked at Bellevue Nursing Home in northwest Oklahoma City. He also was trying to convert people and praised Islamic State for beheading Christians. He is quoted as saying that it “is just what we do.” He allegedly told the victim that he was going to cut her head off with “a blade” and said that, after cutting off her head, he would post it on Facebook. Islamic State fighters have been using social media to parade the heads of murdered captives.
Both Muriithi and Nolen are disturbing examples of the resource of disaffected, marginal, and unhinged individuals who swell the ranks of the Islamic State. For them, religion is an excuse to vent their anger and to kill in the name of faith. It is precisely the dehumanizing elements of the ISIS beliefs that attract them — to be able to treat women and other humans as undeserving of mercy or sympathy. Religion is the not the cause but the vehicle for their violent expression.
They need to march both these bast*rds out, place them against a wall, dip the bullets in pigs blood, then pour the rest of the blood on these creeps then shoot both of them.
happypappies,
You neglected to include my response to justa… regarding her post. Her comment and my response had nothing to do with your fixation on George W. Bush and oil; which by the way, may explain your efforts to deflect us away from the topic of radical Islam.
Is this another vicitm of PTBS?

I have been contributing on this blog for 4 or 5 days now regularly. I don’t have an agenda. I was not trying to make any issue with or of you. I was responding to your question. I did not look all the way above to where you answered because I am not that familiar with you yet. Please forgive me for seeming to be on some kind of attack because it is not my way.
Okaaaay, so are we to expect you will trot out every bad actor on the planet? Is this a personal mission for you? I’m not clear how Kony got involved in this thread.
Olly –

for starters…. it seems that NONE of you have heard of The Lords Resistance Army…. They are beheading people in AFRICA.. in the name of Christianity…..
and Secondly….. These are NOT Terrorism attacks or
terrorism THREATS….. Oxa is RIGHT…. we are using the Terrorism tag is little too liberally these days…
Fact is … That guy who cut attacked his coworkers, would have done this even if he was a Christian…. he got fired and went POSTAL…..
It REALLY is that simple…..
that is ALL that happened… It is horrible and
unfortunate… BUT, it happens….
On this thread above at 8:26 am. I leave law and order to you guys. This is a problem because everyone is ignoring it and it’s another sneaky way for us to get oil by taking advantage of the underprivileged it started under gwb.
You asked. I answered. k
happypappies – you are WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY behind the curve. We have discussed this group several times today. They are NOT connected with Christianity. In fact, nobody seems to be able to figure out just what their philosophy is.
Paul, you are insulting me for no good reason because Olly was the one who asked me. I am the one who explained it. Go back through the comments.and remember you were the one who said to me there was nothing remotely Christian about Kony. I am very familiar with this. I think we are exploiting them for oil
happypappies – I am insulting no one. I looked up Kony and his band of merry men and no one officially can determine if they are Christian or not. I was not asked if they were be exploited for oil, that was not the question of the table and I did not deal with it.

I think you were trying to get my goat when you said I was behind the curve. You got it. I was teasing about Rush Limbaugh and no one got it because no one here has a sense of humor. It’s ridiculous. That man is ridiculous. I am halfway kidding you when I say you are insulting me because this is a freaking blog. lol I will always take it one step further because like Olly said “What is this, Your personal Missson” well, maybe it is in a way. idk.
happypappies – if you want something to be funny put a smiley face on it. Other than that I take everything seriously.
Paul – I plead ignorance on how to do smiley faces. lol
happypappies – ask annie for the list of emoticons for wordpress, she shared with me.
Paul – very good link I dug our of my archives on the Holy Spirit Army
http://infidels.org/library/modern/richard_petraitis/spirit_war.html
happypappies,
I had to google the name and I have no idea what motivates him. My guess is whatever he can use to hold power and terrorize.
Olly – that’s just it – Joseph Kony is not known to many Americans. But he should be. The LRA kidnaps children, using the girls as sex slaves and forcing the boys to fight and often kill their own families. The most frightening act of violence used by the LRA is mutilation. You can find hundreds of photos of African men and women, their faces marred, limbs missing, blind and crippled from these brutal attacks.
We never talk about this because it’s not considered a threat because I personally feel that we will victimize these people. For Oil If you read between the lines of the article and then Google oil in Central Africa and then I found another Article that I didn’t want to believe but was along the lines of the pattern of “The Economic Hitmen” Central Africa is rich with Oil and Obama keeps sending the Military out there to find an “Invisible” Kony. There should be – well, your guess is as good as mine but I know China is interested in this Oil also and the Media isn’t this interested in all of this

Ok that was a link to something Limbaugh said about this group several years ago. If he hasn’t sued by now, I doubt that he will soon. I still don’t see what Limbaugh has to do with whether someone is acting in a Christian manner or not. How is HE affecting anything in Uganda?
I do agree however, with the thrust of what that snippet seem to be saying. WHY are we interfering there in that particular place and retreating every where else. Why does Obama send in troops to attack one group and not another who are doing basically the exact same thing.
“Kony’s Ugandan rebel group is blamed for tens of thousands of mutilations and killings over the last 26 years,” according to the Associated Press. “The militia abducts children, forcing them to serve as soldiers or sex slaves, and even to kill their parents or each other to survive.”
Sounds pretty much like what Boko Harum has been doing. Islamic rebels attacking and kidnapping Christians, mutilating and killing. I don’t see the Obama administration falling all over themselves to take sides here.
Dust Bunny Queen. There is probably Oil over there or something you know?? I agree about Boko Haram
happypappies – there is nothing about Joseph Kony that makes him Christian.
Blame Rush Limbaugh for that
WUT?? What does Limbaugh have to do with someone’s Christianity?
Dust Bunny Queen He is probably suing to to get this off the internet as he is defending the Christian Army of Joseph Kony

I agree Nick. If there was ever a time to NOT trust what our government is telling us, this is it.
The FBI also classified the Fort Hood shooting as workplace violence. Then, Obama droned the US citizen terrorist who inspired that “workplace violence.” I’m amazed @ how intelligent people like JAG can accept information form the FBI when it fits their worldview. Otherwise, JAG would be HIGHLY skeptical of ANYTHING the FBI says. But, here, an overnight “investigation” and then “there’s nothing to see here” and JAG accepts it carte blanche.
justagurlinseattle,
So nothing? Got it.
YES
Do you mean OTHER than the statements by the FBI and Local Law Enforcement that have said that this case does not have any connection to Terrorism???? that it was in retaliation to being FIRED from his job…
Justa…,
When did you interview the suspect in this case to determine there is no connection with radical Islam and/or ISIS? What is your evidence he was not inspired by ISIS or any other radicalized faction within the Muslim community?
Olly, are you familiar with Joseph Kony? I don’t think his brand of evil is “Muslim” lol
happypappies – there is nothing about Joseph Kony that makes him Christian.
Paul –

This was about Anger, Uncontrolled Anger…
NOTHING MORE….
He will be put to death no matter what…..
he went home, got the ONLY weapon he had, a knife…
if he would NOT have been an Ex-Con…. perhaps he would have gone home and grabbed a gun…..
If he would have SHOT his co-workers, we would NOT even be talking about this….
I have to even question as to if he was even TRYING to just killer her, and it was OVERKILL due to rage????
Personally, I do NOT think he was trying to behead her….
I think he just stabbed her over and over in the neck, and he hit the right place to decapitate her…. NOTHING MORE….
This is being Sensationalized in the BIGGEST way…
I am shocked that many of you do not see this…..
The second guy….. he threatened a Co-worker….
This happens EVERY day in the USA…. Christians and Muslims and ALL
other types of people of various Religions do this….
this does NOT make it a terror attack…..
it is a messed up world and unfortunately, people do not control their anger VERY well….
again. This is just being Sensationalized….
“Oh my g*d… ISIS is here…. ISIS is here….. ”
and lastly, Noooooo…. Islam does NOT Condone beheading women just for the heck of it…. NO more than the bible does…..
Perhaps some people here should STOP reading Pam Gellers page…..
Fact is…. These cases have NOTHING to do with terrorism….
they are NOTHING more than Blowing the cases WAY out of Proportion in a bid for MORE readers… More viewers… more listeners….
Our Media and Politicians LOVE to Sensationalize
EVERYTHING….. Creating more fear…
fear sells MORE advertising ….
and fear gets VOTES…..
This is just being USED/ Exploited to create FEAR…..
Used as a Propaganda tool to convince you all that
ISIS is in the USA…. ISIS is in the USA….
The Media and the Politicians are just using this
to TRY and convince the American Public that ISIS is on
American Soil now…..
and the American Public is eating it UP….
Do I think that ISIS is a threat and will try an attack on American Soil??
yes, I do….
BUT… these Cases are NOT even connected to ISIS…
and we have to start looking at things LOGICALLY,
NOT just raging emotion….
we can NOT start calling every single crime that a Muslim
commits, Terrorism….
If we do that, we cheapen the MEANING of that word…
Apparently you have not seen any of my comments yet. I totally agree with you, These are hate crimes. We are all aware of the Lords Resistance Army and if you look in the Archives here you will see articles on it – Joseph Kony is a complete psycho and I personally know exactly what you mean He think’s he channel’s God and Jesus on the hour and probably the Virgin also.
But you are not going to change anyone’s mind here by capital letters trust me
Paul, Obama may give in to “boots” eventually.The military telling Congress they need boots is a major negative for Obama. His cavalier attitude about security briefings, along with the rise of ISIS, negates anything he says. “You didn’t read that.”
National Review hack wants to hang women who abort because sanctity of life
http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/09/nation-review-hack-wants-to-hang-women-who-abort-because-sanctity-of-life/
max-1 – 1) if you agree that the murder of unborn children is murder and some states do, then is the death penalty out of line? And if we put the death penalty out there, then is hanging (when done right a rather quick method of death) is on the table. Calling the writer a hack is out of line considering his critic of Lena’s writing was dead on. 🙂
Annie, are those girls from that Australian mermaid tv show? Can you tell I have a daughter?
Karen
I haven’t read everything you said but must say this:
1-Islam was not written by the hand of Allah, for Allah has no hand. Muslims frown upon anthropomorphism (hence the issue with Jesus being the son of God). The Quran was written by people, to whom it was dictated by Prophet Muhamad, to whom it was transmitted by angel Gabriel. But because it was written down and memorized while being transmitted by Gabriel through Prophet Muhamad, the recitation was always used to check and confirm the written version, or, the written and the recited checked each other, and the Quran is widely confirmed to be exactly now as it was before, unchanged.
Muslims occupy various levels of litteralism, from those who believe the letter to be exact to the spirit being the key and those who occupy a floating realm between the two.
I, for example, believe as the sufis do, that every word means what it means, and the quran speaks to one at his level. It is said that there are at least 7 meanings to everything int he quran ,some obvious and others hidden, and one will interpret it as his heart, his knowledge and his wisdom allow. Interestingly, none of the islamic saints believe in violence of any kind, unless to save a life,and use the quran as proof. Throught he years, every quranic ayat as come to hold a higher meaning for me, perhaps not different from my initial understanding, but surely enhanced.
Reza Aslan, as another example, who speaks for Islam but does not believe in the inerrancy/litteralism of the Quran. Both of us believe in the ultimate religious dictate however, do no harm, which is the main message to course all the holy books.
2- Every religion has violence in it because every religion is human, and religion is as peaceful or violent as its adherents are. Even Buddhism, ask the Rohingya Muslims in Burma who are being progrommed by the Buddhist majority.
Why don’t we change the process, Karen, let’s make it “ask your muslim neighbor”. Any question about Islam you need me answering?
Po, I am only answering you Karen comment so I can send it to my Islamophobic friends who think Allah is Mohammad
po – the Angel Gabriel only appeared to Mohammed to announce to him he was to receive the information from the Sustainer. Gabriel was not himself the Sustainer. Since Mohammed was illiterate we do not know who wrote it down as it may have been carried orally for some time. We do know that it was codified after the death of Mohammed. We also know that some scholars have problems with early versions of the texts since the versions don’t match exactly.
The Left refuses to admit terrorism has struck America’s heartland. They fear the wrath of voters. See “Terror Strikes America – Again!” at http://t.co/nurkdy0GI6.
Paul, And the intelligence people are ripping Obama a new one w/ leaks showing he is an incompetent liar. This administration is in free fall. That’s one reason some folks are cranky here all the time.
Offer them a plane ride!
