Terrorist state Saudi Arabia forms coalition of 34 Sunni Islamist nations to "fight terrorism"
2015-12-16
Saudi Arabia has formed a military coalition of 34 Islamic countries to combat terrorism, the Saudi government announced on early Tuesday morning.

The Saudi government said the multi-national coalition includes Turkey, Pakistan, Nigeria, Qatar, Egypt, Morocco, Yemen, and Jordan, but other details were not immediately disclosed. Saudi Defense Minister Mohammad bin Salman Al Saud said the alliance will not just confront the Islamic State (ISIS) group, but "any terrorist group in front of us."

The coalition will operate a joint operations center in the Saudi capital of Riyadh and coordinate with other international bodies to combat terrorism, a statement said. It emphasized human dignity and the rights to life and security, and said the coalition is committed to eliminate terrorism through the use of international legal instruments.

The full list of countries as announced is as follows: Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Pakistan, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Benin, Turkey, Chad, Togo, Tunisia, Djibouti, Senegal, Sudan, Sierra Leone, Somalia, Gabon, Guinea, Palestine, Comoros, Qatar, Ivory Coast, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, the Maldives, Mali, Malaysia, Egypt, Morocco, Mauritania, Niger, Nigeria, and Yemen.

The Saudi government added that more than a dozen other Islamic countries have expressed support for the military alliance, including Indonesia.
Saudi Arabia can fight terrorism by opening its own borders to multiculturalism and by turning off the oil money to export Islamist fascism... is that what they are doing? NO they are building a coalition of states in various stages of Islamist fascism, members of the OIC to fight us. And pretend they are fighting terrorism so Russia doesnt bomb them

#5  with the exception of Lebanon.

Hizb'allah is not happy that the government -- still lacking a president, mind you -- went ahead and made that committment without consulting them. On the other hand, they're going to be quite busy at home and in the near abroad for some time to come. On the other hand, "Palestine" is also listed. I can't imagine that means Hamas as well as the PA, even if Hamas could get many men out through the tunnels, nor can I imagine the PA can spare any when Hamas plots against the opportunity to steal the West Bank as well as Gaza from the heirs of Arafat.

In the end I imagine this will be useful for mustache-cursing in loud harmony, but nothing more effective.

#4  Know who I don't see in that list?

This reads more like the beginning of a military alliance against the Mullahs, than anything else, with the exception of Lebanon.

#1  I repay those that worship false gods with utter destruction. The damage of this thing, and the time it cost me every hour is unacceptable.

The fucking saudis are on my shit list every time some wahabbist or salifi picks up a weapon and destroys people.

My dreams are deafening with the screams of those under torture from their offspring.

Islam is offensive in every way to me. It is an affront to the Lord who will give it no quarter neither here, nor the hereafter.

It is too late for the magik kingdome to solve this. The roots of SIN lies squarely with the land that converted a child rapist into a prophet.

GOD is at end with it, and I think these "princes" know they have sins of the Fathers and Grandfathers on their hands.

We do not put up with death cults for long. and with piece of shit languages like arabic, 16 different dialects and limited communication, illiteracy, broken government for like forever -qualifies them the piece of shit bad roots that created a tree that has no accountability.

It is wormwood.

GOD will destroy it.
