Why the Khobar terrorists killed Indians

Blinding hatred

This is an archived blog post from The Acorn.

John Bradley has an interview with the leader of the al Qaeda cell responsible for the brutal terrorist attack in the Saudi town of Khobar that killed 22 foreigners, including 8 Indians. The terrorist reveals how and why they killed the Indians: because they were Hindu polytheists and one of them did not allow Muslims to perform their prayers.

We found Filipino Christians, and killed them and dedicated their death to our brothers the Mujahedeen in the Philippines, and we found Hindu engineers and we killed them too, thanks to God. So we rid the land of Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him) of a lot of Christians and polytheists that day.After that we went towards the hotel. We entered it and found a restaurant, where we ate breakfast and rested for a while.

Then went up to the first floor and found some Hindu dogs, and we killed them, and I said to the brothers: put the bodies on the stairs, so when the solders of the idolaters attempt to attack us, they will see the bodies and be terrified by the sight. It seems that I had been too optimistic, because not one of the cowards entered the building until we left.

We take the chance to initiate a Qu’ran reading circle for the remaining Muslims, and we taught them how to read the Fatiha [the opening verse] perfectly. And they seemed to be overwhelmed by us. They were saying, how did you manage to pull this off in the current volatile situation, and thanked God that we were able to do so. The Muslim Indians informed us that their manager was a malicious Hindu who does not let them perform their prayers, and that he would be coming in a while. When he came, we confirmed his religion from his ID papers, then left him sit with us for a while…

I assigned each of the brothers in a certain place at the hotel, to be ready to face any attack against us by the government dogs. At 2pm they attacked with an officer…

Nemer, mercy on his soul, was shouting at someone, saying: Come closer coward, come closer… and the others were running away from him. They started heavy shooting against the hotel and kept it up until the Asr (after 1500th prayer), during which time we killed this bad Hindu Indian, who did not allow the Muslim employees to perform their prayers.
