Just a Flag?

SWEDEN: Pay no attention to that Black Flag of al-Qaeda flying on a Muslim building in Gothenburg

“That black flag is simply a religious symbol, representing the Islamic faith. It has nothing to do with violence and hatred. It stands for peace, tolerance, and interfaith understanding.”

GOV This jihad flag is flying on a Bosnian Association building in Gothenburg, reportedly near a mosque that has been linked to the al-Shabaab terror network. Also flying are Swedish, Pakistani and Bosnian flags. The imam spoke to Expressen after the media discovered the black flag and reported it. Despite his soothing words and apparent unconcern, however, the newspaper noted that “just hours after GT.se published article on it, the flag was taken down. At 2 pm it was missing.”

Go to this link to see the video of the Expressen interview with the Imam:

If I'm not mistaken the Imam is bold face lying to the Expressen reporter when he says that the black flag "is simply a religious symbol, representing the Islamic faith" and that "It stands for peace, tolerance and interfaith understanding" than that is a bold face lie.

Here's why:
The Black Banner or Black Standard (راية السوداء rāyat al-sawdā' , also known as راية العقاب rāyat al-`uqāb "banner of the eagle" or simply as الراية al-rāya "the banner") is the historical flag flown by Muhammad in Islamic tradition, an eschatological symbol in Shi'a Islam (heralding the advent of the Mahdi),[1] and a symbol used in Islamism and Jihadism.
 
1.

The "black flag of jihad" as used by various Islamist organisations (since the late 1990s)

2.

Flag used by the Islamic State of Iraq (2007), al‑Shabaab and other jihadists during the 2000s.

3.

Typical use of jihadist flags is in rallies, but also as banners hung in the background in videos released by such groups. This example shows the beheading of Jack Hensley in September 2004. The flag shows the shahada in white, above a white circle surrounded by the name jamaa'tul tawhid wal jihad in yellow script.

Do you still think that the little black flag is harmless, think again, it stands for the radical Islamic "we are taking over" statement. Swedes need to wake up and learn about the radical culture that is taking over their nation very quickly.
