Terrorist Group Issues Fatwa to Kill Journalists and Spies

From Blaze.com (Jan. 10):

Leaders of Pakistan’s most deadly terrorist organization issued a recent “fatwa” – an Islamic edict – ordering their followers to kill journalists and those believed to be spies for the West, saying they are enemies of Islam.

The 30-page document titled “FATWA Regarding Dajjali Media, Who is Wrong? Who is Right?” was issued by the Terik-E-Taliban’s (TTP) Central Shura in Pakistan’s lawless tribal belt and includes Fox News, the Associated Press, the BBC, Pakistan’s GEO News, Al Jazeera and several other news outlets whose logos are on the cover of the document. That said, the document stipulates the edict is to be directed at any reporter or news organization they deem anti-Islamic.

The document, written in Urdu, has only been released on several Jihadi websites. TheBlaze obtained the document this week and had it translated but chose not to publish it in its entirety out of the concern for journalists and other individuals working overseas. [read more]

What is this?! Islamists wanting to kill journalists? I don’t get it. The lame-stream-press is always careful not to tick off the Jihadists. Must be one of those conservative journalists ticking them off. Probably, made a online video disrespecting Islam. That’s got to be it.

The journalists and Western spies don’t have to worry about the FATWA though. It doesn’t seem to be issued by Al Qaeda. So it’s alright. They can let out a sigh of relief.
