LGBT vs Islam

Progressives’ Naivety Exposed as Islam-Linked Violence Against Gays Surfaces in Australia

ABC footage exposes alleged ISIS-linked gangs targeting gay men in Sydney, reigniting debate over extremism, religious doctrine, and growing security fears ahead of the city’s Mardi Gras.

Muslim teenagers have been filming themselves bashing homosexuals throughout Sydney.

This will come as a shock to the Queers for Palestine mob.

The ABC has obtained and published numerous videos of Muslim gangs beating young gay men they had lured into meeting through dating apps.

The attacks have been ongoing over the past few years.

There are now urgent calls for extra security at this weekend’s Gay Mardi Gras.

Extremism researcher at Deakin University, Josh Roose, told the ABC that gays were among the most likely targets of violent extremists.

No kidding.

Muhammad is widely reported in Islamic scripture as having commanded his followers:

“Whoever you find doing the action of the people of Lot, kill the one who does it and the one to whom it is done.”

The “people of Lot” were those in Sodom and Gomorrah — a city famous for its embrace of homosexuality.

This represents a major problem for “moderate” Muslims. More on that in a moment…

Violent Attacks Exposed in Sydney

Young Muslim men can be seen, in footage obtained by the ABC, punching and kicking their gay victims to the point of unconsciousness.

Some of the attackers are seen wearing clothing associated with Islamic State.

And some of the videos bear the Islamic State’s watermark.

Police have arrested a number of the attackers, whom they allege are part of an ISIS cell in Sydney.

Police allege the young men referred to gays as “kafir dogs”, which is another way of saying nonbelievers.

One attacker is alleged to have written in a chat group:

“We keep doing that to gay [expletive].”

“Wallah we gunna make a living off this… We make them pay or we roll them.”

His friend replied:

“We don’t get sins for it since they’re gay.”

The Queers for Palestine mob might want to have a come-to-Jesus moment on all of this.

The ABC reported:

According to Dr Roose, LGBTQIA+ Australians are the most likely to be killed by violent extremists, after Australian Jews.

As for the ABC, when reporting on gays being violently attacked in Sydney back in 2024, they said:

Recent events have shown the threat of homophobic violence in Australia lingers stubbornly.

Really? Lingers? Or imported?

Holy Writ

The 2024 report continued:

It is difficult to know in each case what has motivated the people involved.

But that didn’t stop them speculating. They interviewed a criminologist who took a stab in the dark (if you’ll pardon the pun)…

He told the ABC:

“[It] might have its origins in religious bigotry in the United States, but then is amplified through digital platforms and manifests in protests against drag queen story time.”

Ah yes, it’s those MAGA-loving, gay hating Christian nationalist types!

Er, no.

For those up the back…

Both the Bible and the Islamic Scriptures teach that homosexuality is a sin.

While the Bible details the death penalty for homosexuality, it does so in a way that makes it clear that it was at a certain time in history.

You cannot read the Bible today and conclude that homosexuals should be put to death.

Jesus makes it abundantly clear that, while homosexuality is still a sin, God loves gay people and that they are to be shown grace — not violence.

Islamic scriptures, however, make no distinction between what Muhammad called for around AD 600 — the murder of gays — and what Muhammad would expect in 2026.

Until “moderate” Muslims come out and say that Muhammad’s example is not to be followed today, some Muslims will continue to emulate him.

Of course, moderate Muslims won’t say that Muhammad’s example is to be ignored. They cannot say that. And if they did, they would be regarded as apostates, rightly fearing the same fate as gays.

The mostly progressive media have been eager to avoid the inevitable clash between Islam and the LGBTQ agenda.

Progressives try desperately to elevate Islam as an alternative to Christianity. But events like these clearly reflect the naivety common among Western progressives when it comes to comprehending Islam and its core values.

For now, it will all be smoothed over.

There will be talk of radicals and extremists and about how those who did this were not motivated by Islam but by Islamic State… as if the two are disconnected.

But, like I said, the clash is inevitable. Queers for Palestine should take note… while they still can.

    Thanks for the Truth , James. Yes, the “progressive ” Australian media tries to blame these attacks on Christians. Where I live there has been NO news about these attacks. Censorship and propaganda are alive and well in Australia.

    Oh dear. The romantic naivity of the all inclusive diversity cult is coming home to roost.
    Did anyone ever consider that Muslim immigration and the LGBTQA+ community wouldn’t be compatible?
    So now we have both the Jewish and Rainbow communities under threat from extremist members of the demographic that Labor must court to stay in power. This will be interesting.

    They always label them as “extremists”, completely ignoring that such attacks are almost always islamists, and then go on to imply that christians are the culprits. They want to protect the criminals while foisting the blame on christians, who they consider their true enemy.
    Standard marxist propaganda.

    When are the media and the government going to realise that people who obey the Quran, Sharia law and the Hadiths are not extremists but normal muslims doing what their god told them to! Check out http://www.billionbibles.org/sharia/sharia-law.html Where it states (•8) that homosexuality is punishable by death. So these gay attackers are following their religion. (Not that that justifies them in any way). Obviously the multicultural idealogues didn’t study this when they pushed multicultualism.
    As Christians we need to be aware of their beliefs so that we can show show them God’s way. Show them in the Quran, Surah (chapter) 3:2,3 where it mentions salvation through the gospel, and in Surah 3:45-50ff where it says to instruct him in the Torah and Gospel. I have found that this is a great lead in to doing an evangelistic bible study in the Gospels with muslims. So be a Christian ‘extremist’ and pray and get out and share the gospel with the Muslims. Jesus commanded it Acts 1:8

    Putting the gay attackers to one side for the moment, I agree wholeheartedly that we must not repay sin with sin. But I quote your sentence “Jesus makes it abundantly clear that, while homosexuality is still a sin, God loves gay people and that they are to be shown grace — not violence.” However, ‘grace’ does not imply tolerance. As a nation we don’t tolerate murder. And as a nation we should not tolerate homosexuality, or any other sin, but be sharing the gospel with them instead. And the Lord DETESTS the fact that we celebrate homosexuality by allowing the Mardi Gras AND having our PM parade alongside! Tolerating sin is just as bad as committing sin. Let’s take the log out of our own eyes first!
