Since October 2001 there has been a trend in the "mainstream" news media to cover up acts of terrorism, calling
them "isolated incidents". Some examples of this are shown below, but I'm sure there have been other
similar cases. It's not difficult to connect the dots when dots are so plentiful.
One of the most obvious cases of the government dimissing a terrorist attack
as an "isolated incident" was the first one after September 11, 2001 — the
crash of American 587, in New York City,
just two months after the 9/11 attack. The plane was still smoldering on the ground when
government officials began making extraordinary pronouncements that there was "no connection to
terrorism" and it was just an "unfortunate accident." I could go on at length
about this case... and I did,
on this page.

More examples of pro-Islam bias in the media can be

Two examples of incidents that were hushed up and thrown down the memory hole
are Northwest Flight 327
and American Flight 587.
There have been many other similar cases.
The most prominent recent case is that of
the Boston bombing.

The Islamic terrorist attack in Orlando, Florida is discussed on its own page.

The Islamic terrorist attack in Garland, Texas is discussed on its own page.
Bottom line: Islam IS NOT a "religion of peace."

Who Commits Most of the World's
Extremist Violence? Even a superficial glance at the record indicates that of the nearly 20,000 people killed
in thousands of extremist killings in 2017, white supremacists were responsible for very few. The worst terrorist event
of 2017, according to the State Department, was the explosion of a truck bomb outside the Safari Hotel in Mogadishu, Somalia,
which killed more than 580 people. This violent act is believed to have been the work of Al-Shabaab, which was
responsible for 97 percent of the 370 instances of extremist killings in Somalia in 2017, accounting for about 1,400
deaths — mostly civilian. The remaining violent acts were carried out by Jabha East Africa (ISIS-Somalia), a
dissident Al-Shabaab splinter group. The deadliest extremist attack in Egypt's history took place in 2017, when
ISIS-Sinai terrorists converged on a mosque in Sinai during Friday prayers and slaughtered 312 people, including 27 children,
when they came outside. Also in Egypt that year, on Palm Sunday, an extremist suicide bomber connected to IS-Egypt
killed 30 Coptic Christians at a church in Tanta. He coordinated his actions with another suicide bomber, who killed 16
people at a church in Alexandria.
Judge
Jeanine and the paradoxes of the post-9/11 world. [D]ays after 9/11, even as Bush was planning the Afghanistan
campaign, he told the American people that "The face of terror is not the true faith of Islam. That's not what Islam is
all about. Islam is peace." In the eighteen years since, the Western political and media establishment have
continued to echo that lie. Jihadists have struck Bali, Madrid, Beslan, London, Mumbai, Fort Hood, Paris, San
Bernardino, Brussels, Orlando, Nice, Manchester, Barcelona, and New York again — just to name a few of the
deadlier and more high-profile incidents. Yet, perversely, the lie about Islam is stronger than ever. Throughout
the West, schoolchildren and college students alike have been fed a picture of Islam that's pure propaganda. Yes, one
has the impression that many people are more aware of the reality of Islam than they used to be — but one also has
the impression that they feel more cowed than ever into keeping quiet about it.
10
Questions About the Compatibility of Islam with America. The Religion of Peace website counts 34,034 Islamic
terrorist attacks worldwide since September 11, 2001. Mosques financed by Saudi Arabia and Iran are primary sources of
Jihadist activity. Israel has foiled at least 40 ISIS attacks in Western countries in just the last three years.
Since 9/11, an additional 158 Americans have been killed in 53 separate acts of deadly Islamic terror or Islam-related honor
killing in the United States. Hundreds of mass murder plots have been thwarted or botched. Between 5 [and] 25% of
Muslims in America believe that violence in defense of Islam is justified.
The Top 50 Liberal
Media Bias Examples. [#43] Lone Wolf Terrorist: This leads us to the general penchant of the media to
ignore the Muslim connection to many of the mass shootings since 911. While the Tea Party or conservatives are often the
first people the media blames for such crimes, Islam is consistently downplayed or entirely ignored as playing a role in
these shootings or attempted terror attacks. The case of a 26-year-old man from Massachusetts is a good example of
this. Few reports of the arrest of Rezwan Fedaus mentioned he was a Muslim. Instead, the Old Media likes to
characterize these killers (or killer wannabes) as "lone wolf gunmen," as if they popped up spontaneously from the earth
fully grown with no connection at all to Islamic terror.
The Wall is National
Defense. America maintains hundreds of overseas bases, builds and develops increasingly sophisticated
conventional arms, continues to slog on inconclusively in Afghanistan, and, in spite of a smallish uniformed military, still
spends mountains of money. [...] In spite of these expensive efforts overseas, American soldiers and civilians have continued
to be killed by periodic attacks by Islamic terrorists at home, including the 55 victims of the Pulse nightclub attack, the
five dead from the Chechen refugees who perpetrated the Boston Marathon bombing, the five victims of Muhammad Abdulazeez, who
shot up a military base in Chattanooga Tennessee, and the 14 victims of the San Bernardino terrorist attackers, Syed Farook
and Tashfeen Malik. In the case of the Boston bombing and the San Bernardino attacks, the perpetrators were not only
Islamic immigrants but were permitted to enter the country after the 9/11 attacks.
European
Holiday Life With Jihad — New Threats, Weak PC Governments and Terror Barricades Decorated for Christmas. Concrete
K-Rail Barriers, positioned to stop terrorist attacks by vehicles, dressed up like Christmas decorations around the local holiday markets.
What a ridiculously sad and pathetic visual of everything wrong in Europe. Amid the anxiety of anticipating the next Jihadist attack, which
everyone knows is not if — but rather 'when', it would appear joy is somewhat lowered on the scale of relativity.
Islamic
terror is not a law enforcement puzzle, it's a war. Another sickening Islamist terror attack, this time on the
streets of New York. On each occasion we seem to go through the same ritual — sympathy, condemnation, a
parade of well-meaning statements from government officials insisting that the terrorists "will not win." Fine. But
forgive me for feeling a certain sense of frustration. The truth is, we are not taking this threat seriously
enough. Our response needs to be much more aggressive. [...] First, we should remove all known Islamists from our
country. If they are not U.S. citizens, they should be immediately deported. If they are naturalized U.S.
citizens, they should first have their citizenship revoked.
Why
Bureaucracies Don't Stop Terror. Of course Sayfullo Saipov "had been on the radar of federal authorities," as the New York Times
put it in a report that had the stink of inevitability on it. Who else was on the radar of the relevant law-enforcement and intelligence
agencies? Omar Mateen, Syed Farook's social circle, Nidal Hasan, Adam Lanza, the 2015 Garland attackers, the Boston Marathon bombers ...
The 2015 Paris attackers were "on the radar" of French authorities, as were the Charlie Hebdo killers. The Copenhagen terrorists were
known to local authorities. Man Haron Monis, who staged an attack in Sydney, had written a letter to Australia's attorney general inquiring
about whether he'd get into legal trouble for communicating with ISIS. The men behind the Quebec car-ramming and the shooting at parliament
were known to Canadian authorities. Mehdi Nemmouche, who murdered four peoples at the Jewish Museum in Brussels, was a convicted armed robber
who was under surveillance after traveling back and forth to Syria. [...] The Sayfullo Saipov case is another instance of serial institutional failure,
from immigration authorities to domestic counterterrorism forces. We've given them tremendous amounts of money, manpower, and investigatory
authority. Now we need to see results.
The Language of Losing.
[Scroll down] But the reason the west's enemies are able to pile up a continuous corpse count in Paris, Nice, Berlin,
Brussels, London, Manchester, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Orlando, San Bernadino, Ottawa, Sydney, Barcelona, [Your Town Here] is
because they have "safe havens" in France, Germany, Britain, Scandinavia, North America, etc. Which "safe havens" are
likely to prove more consequential for the developed world in the years ahead? [...] You can't connect what's happening in
Molenbeek, Malmö and the other "safe havens" of the west with the "safe havens" of the east if you think what's going on
is about random "maniacs" adopting "false religious garb".
Burn-through.
Narratives are powerful but not omnipotent. The Lone Wolf Narrative can be sold to the public only while attacks fall
below a certain frequency. Once the attacks happen too frequently the script fails and the public begins to wonder if
the Lone Wolves aren't really a pack. Even the immense media resources at the disposal of progressives can be overcome
by a strong signal from events. The presence of jamming can sometimes be inferred from an excessive number of "sudden"
or "unexpected" events that appear in full blown form without the slightest warning. Their sudden onset is explained by
the pop out when they pass the filter. When things appear suddenly and very close at hand it might be because
they're past the blinders. The presence of too many sudden and unexpected events of the same type could be a sign
that a filter is in operation.
Should We Embrace
the "Inevitable Reality" of Terrorism? Those who support freedom know that "freedom is not free," as those who
support diversity equally understand that "diversity is not free." Both freedom and diversity require sacrifice.
Why
do Muslims always shout "Allah Akbar" when they carry out or threaten to carry out a terrorist attack? The answer will help you argue against
Muslims and their leftist useful idiots when they say "terrorism has nothing to do with Islam."
Anatomy of Lone Wolf.
It is a mistake to dismiss the Lone Wolves as "cowardly and depraved". On the contrary their tactics require a willingness to die and
the intelligent use of abundant dual-use materials that is rarely if ever equaled by the political leadership of the West. The
September 11 attacks are a superb example of how creative and determined a foe the Jihadis can be. Using box cutters and
wide-bodied aircraft the Muslim world could not invent for itself[,] a handful of highly motivated men killed thousands of people in
the heart of Manhattan. [...] And attack they do, surprisingly yet unsurprisingly. It is Western leadership that is more deserving
of criticism for turning in such a poor defensive performance despite their vast resource superiority. Obsessed with looking good,
timid to the point of inactivity, determined at all costs to proclaim their own virtue, the Western elites have proved singularly incapable
of combating their vastly weaker foes. The ritualualistic candle-lighting, trite speeches, frightened processions and self-congratulation
of the political class are completely ineective against [the] laser-like menace of their foes.
Keep Calm and Propagandize On. In 2006, Melanie
Phillips wrote a book called Londonistan: How Britain Is Creating a Terror State Within. She argued that Britain was a sitting duck for
Islamic terrorists, owing to its idiotic embrace of political correctness, multiculturalism, and religious relativism. The left greeted the book
with hisses and dismissed Phillips as an alarmist crank. But on Monday [3/20/2017] her description of Britain's capital as "Londonistan" came
graphically to life, as a terrorist chose one of its chief symbols, the area around the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, as the place to plow his
car into pedestrians and then stab a police officer. The initial reporting after terrorist attacks these days is often full of hesitation and
curious silences. The death toll is usually low-balled and the identity of the attacker is left hazy for as long as possible. So it is
not surprising that the first reports on this attack identified the terrorist as merely "Asian."
Five
Days and Two 'Known Wolf' Terror Attacks, Yet No Apparent Concern from Western Governments. We've seen two more
"Known Wolf" terror attacks in the West, and yet Western government authorities seem unwilling to acknowledge, let alone
begin to address, the "Known Wolf" terror problem. I first identified the "Known Wolf" terror trend and coined the term
in October 2014 here at PJ Media, noting that many, possibly most, Islamic terrorists who actually committed terrorism in the
West were already known to Western law enforcement, national security agencies, and intelligence services. Yet sufficient
action was not taken to prevent them from conducting terror attacks.
A
Complete List of Radical Islamic Terror Attacks on U.S. Soil Under Obama. In a speech at MacDill Air Force Base
in Tampa, Florida on Tuesday, President Obama declared that "[n]o foreign terrorist organization has successfully planned and
executed an attack on our homeland." The claim earned perfunctory applause, but a closer look at the reaction of many of the
servicemen and women there made clear what they really thought about the administration's handling of national security. The
President's claim — which he has repeated in some form or fashion over the last few years — is an obvious
rhetorical attempt to gloss over the reality of the threat of radical Islamic terror on American soil. The attempt to
disconnect "lone wolf" terrorists from the terror organizations who often inspire them does nothing to alleviate the pain of
those who have suffered at the hands of jihadists and only hurts prevention efforts. Rhetorical tricks aside, the reality
is that during Obama's tenure scores of innocent Americans have been murdered on U.S. soil by jihadists, most of whom were
inspired by or acting under the direction of foreign terror groups, particularly the Islamic state.
Here
Is Your Complete List Of Islamic Terror Attacks During The Obama Administration. Tuesday's [3/22/2016] deadly
terror attack in Brussels, Belgium was yet another Islamic terror attack that has occurred during President Barack Obama's
administration. Obama's weakness on the world stage and failure to even utter the words "radical Islamic terrorism" has
emboldened the Islamic jihadist movement and has caused their evil expansion and growth. Here is the complete list of
Islamic terror attacks that have occurred under Obama's watch.
Right-wing
think tank declares 72 terrorists from Trump's banned countries have been convicted in the United States since 9/11. A report released
by the US Senate provided information on the 580 individuals convicted of terrorism in America since the 9/11 attacks. The conservative
non-profit Center for Immigration Studies claim they obtained a copy of the information, which was originally released in 2016 by the Senate
Subcommittee on Immigration and the National Interest, then chaired by new Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
White
House publishes list of 78 terror attacks that the media 'ignored' - including Orlando, San Bernardino, Bataclan and Nice
truck attack. The White House has released a list of 78 terror attacks that the press had 'ignored' following
President Donald Trump's claims that the media was 'very, very dishonest'. The attacks dated from September 2014 to
December 2016, all of which the president believed were 'underreported' as he put the blame on the media Monday.
Trump's administration said the attacks in Orlando, San Bernardino, Brussels, Nice and the Bataclan in Paris 'have not
received the media attention they deserved' and released the list on Monday night [2/6/2017] as proof.
Trump:
'The Very, Very Dishonest Press Doesn't Want to Report' on Threat from Radical Islam. In a speech today at
MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Fla., President Donald Trump said that "the very, very dishonest press" doesn't want to
report on the threat posed by radical Islamic terrorists determined to strike the homeland. Trump also vowed that he
would not allow "radical Islamic terrorism... to take root in our country." "Radical Islamic terrorists are determined to
strike our homeland as they did on 9/11, as they did from Boston to Orlando to San Bernardino and all across Europe.
You've seen what happened in Paris and Nice. All over Europe, it's happening. It's gotten to a point where it's
not even being reported, and in many cases the very, very dishonest press doesn't want to report it," Trump said.
Surprise:
All Those Lone Wolf ISIS Attacks Weren't So Lone Wolf After All. During the Era Of Obama, we were told time and
time again that any attack by hardcore Islamic extremists, also known as Islamists, were lone wolf attacks. Even though
virtually all of them pledged allegiance to ISIS, we were told that there were no links, and, of course, the requisite "it
has nothing to do with Islam!"
Yes,
Foreign-Born Immigrants Have Committed Terrorism. Among such individuals: the Tsarnaev brothers of the Boston
Marathon bombing, who were both born abroad. Tamerlan was born in Kyrgyzstan in 1986, and Dzhokhar was reportedly born
in Dagestan. The 2015 Chattanooga Recruiting Center shooter, Mohammad Youssuf Abdulazeez, was born in Kuwait and lived
in Jordan before migrating to the United States at the age of six. He killed five people. Ohio State University
attacker Abdul Razak Artan, who ran over several fellow students with a car before attacking them with a butcher knife, was a
refugee born in Somalia who had only been in the United States for two years. Ahmad Khan Rahimi, born in Afghanistan,
detonated a bomb near a 5K run event, then another in downtown Manhattan in October of last year. Dahir Adan, a Somali
born in Kenya who immigrated to the United States as a child, launched a mass stabbing attack at a St. Cloud Minnesota
mall in 2016. And these are only a few recent examples.
The Obama Presidency —
By the Numbers. Obama is fond of saying that international terrorist organizations have not pulled off a large-scale attack on
[America] during his presidency. That is true — but obscures a change in tactics. Although Obama did achieve a widely celebrated
victory by killing Osama bin Laden in 2011, with increasingly frequency, so-called "lone wolves" have responded to calls from groups like the
Islamic State to plan and carry out their own acts of terror. And lone wolves can cause plenty of carnage. A Muslim couple shot up
a party in San Bernardino, California, killing 14 people in 2015. A Muslim man who fired randomly at an Orlando nightclub killed
49 people. According to the terrorism index tracked by the Institute for Economics and Peace, there were 105 terrorist incidents
resulting in 93 deaths from 2009 through 2015. According to a database maintained by researcher William Robert Johnston, 2016
brought nine attacks and 53 deaths.
Shut
Down America's Refugee Programs Before They Turn Us Into Germany. On the same day as the Berlin attack, there
was a knife attack at a Virginia Metro station by an African Muslim, Ali Ahmed Mohamound. A similar knife attack
occurred in New York City the day before, with the suspect still at large. All this followed on the heels of November's
Ohio State knife attack by Somali Muslim refugee Abdul Artan. These attacks typify the kinds recommended in ISIS
literature, and ISIS claims credit for most of them. With Berlin, Brussels, Orlando, and so many other horrific attacks
this year, San Bernardino and Paris almost seem like old news. Although we view these events with horror and growing
alarm, the outgoing Obama administration is literally importing terrorists through our nation's refugee programs.
Because private contractors are paid by the head to resettle refugees and other needy populations, the resettlement program
has built-in incentives for uncontrolled growth. This harmonizes with the Left's open borders agenda, which seeks to
swell the rolls of new Democrat voters while weakening the influence of traditional (read conservative) America.
Obama
Says 'No Foreign Terrorist Organization' Has Planned, Executed Attack on U.S. During His Term. President Obama
delivered his last major speech on national security at MacDill Air Force Base in Florida on Tuesday [12/6/2016], boasting that
"no foreign terrorist organization has successfully planned and executed an attack" in the U.S.

Leaked
FBI documents show that more than 7,000 'terrorist encounters' occurred within the US in a year. More than
7,000 terrorist encounters have occurred within a single year in the US, according to leaked FBI documents. The
sensitive FBI data obtained by Breitbart Texas revealed that most of the encounters occurred near the US-Mexico border.
Some of the incidents which are classified as 'Known or Suspected Terrorist Encounters' indicate that suspected terrorists
attempted to sneak into the US across the border.
Muslim
Refugee Terror is Changing America. The wave of Muslim refugee terror began with a bomb targeting a U.S. Marine
charity run in New Jersey. By evening a pressure cooker full of shrapnel has exploded outside a Manhattan building for
the blind. An hour later, a rampaging Muslim terrorist began stabbing people inside a Macy's, asking them if they were
Muslim and shouting the name of "Allah," the genocidal Islamic deity of mass murder. And that was one Saturday, two
Muslim refugees and a wave of national terror 1,200 miles apart. What did Elizabeth, New Jersey and St. Cloud,
Minnesota have in common? New Jersey has the second largest Muslim population in the country. This isn't the
first time it was used as a staging ground for Muslim terror.
Why
FBI Suspects Keep Attacking Americans. Why does the Obama administration keep failing to thwart Muslim
terrorist attacks in the U.S. after receiving apparently good intelligence warning of those attacks? It turns out that
Americans keep turning in budding Muslim terrorists to the Obama administration and the administration keeps on doing
nothing. For example, the alleged mastermind of the weekend pressure-cooker bombing in New York City was turned in by
his own father but the Federal Bureau of Investigation failed to do much of anything about him. These intelligence
failures have become a recurrent theme in the Obama era, with deadly results. Excluding the events of the last few
days, there have been 89 Muslim terrorist plots and attacks in the United States since Sept. 11, 2001 and 25 of
those have taken place since the beginning of 2015, according to David Inserra of the Heritage Foundation. Counterterrorism
expert Sebastian Gorka, vice president at the Institute of World Politics, blamed political correctness for the FBI's inability to
do something about Rahami before he acted.
Will
Terrorist Attacks Be The New Normal? With three separate incidents that seem at first glance to be Islamic
terrorism, America again faces the question: Is this our inevitable future, one filled with murderous attacks by a
growing group of people who despise us? It's not a pleasant question to ask. But the first-blush evidence from
attacks over the weekend — including a pipe-bomb explosion before a U.S. Marine-sponsored running event in
Seaside, New Jersey; a bomb set off in a dumpster in New York's Chelsea neighborhood that injured 29 (and another unexploded
device found just blocks away); and a maniac stabbing 9 people in Minnesota while muttering about Allah — says
they can't be written off as merely random.
Forget
the Economy — It's the Jihad, Stupid! There's little question the Obama administration has done an
horrendous job dealing with Islamic terrorism. The rise of ISIS is significantly on the president's hands, not just
because he inanely called the mega-terrorists a JV team, but because his failure to keep sufficient U.S. troops in Iraq gave
the Islamic State the opportunity to grow and thrive. The success of the Islamic State has given rise to a worldwide
epidemic of so-called "lone wolves" who aren't really alone, but local players (sometimes banded together) who take their
inspiration from ISIS. They don't care whether the Islamic State is controlling Mosul or even Raqqa. They care
about jihad. And there seem to be more of them every day, in all corners of the world.
The Truth
About the NY and NJ Bombings (and the Minnesota Mall Attack): We Are At War. The Orwellian bias and naked
propaganda of the leftist media, such as refusing to call acts of terrorism terrorism, and criticizing Trump for calling a
bombing a bombing, really has jumped the shark and gone full retard. Which is why they have lost nearly all credibility
among the great mass of the people. It is so ridiculous that even the average formerly asleep "bread and circuses"
distracted sheeple are now able to see it. That is a good thing. But the "mainstream" media, and the SJW
communist fanatics that infest the Democratic party (same thing, really) refuse to see how they are killing their own
credibility and legitimacy. So be it. Let them keep responding to radical leftist and jihadist terrorism by
ignoring it or by trying to blame it on "racism."

Exposing
5 Little Known Facts about Islam Politicians and the Media Are Deliberately Concealing from You. Despite the fact that the perpetrator,
named as Sami Ayad, a "Frenchman" apparently, shouted what the media incorrectly call "an Arabic phrase meaning God is greatest," police insist
there's no evidence showing he'd been radicalized or motivated by politics. They didn't go as far to say he's suffering from a mental illness
this time. True to form, the media is downplaying any connection to Islam. Instead of accurately describing Ayad as a "French Muslim",
he's portrayed as a "Frenchman." Furthermore, the exclamation "Allahu Akbar" is not an Arabic phrase nor does it mean "God is greatest" as
the duplicitous media reports state. It's an Arabic phrase specific to Islam [...] and it means "Allah is greater." Meaning Allah is
greater than your Gods and greater than your man-made governments and laws. These kinds of desperate attempts to disconnect from Islam
atrocities committed by Muslims in the name of their deity are deployed by both politicians and the media in the aftermath of each attack.
They're deliberately concealing the truth about Islam in order to maintain the "it's a religion of peace" narrative.
Good
News: Media Decides Islamic Terrorism is a Mental Illness. The growth in Islamic terrorism is leading the
media to even more bizarre realms of propaganda. So unable to deny Islamic terrorism, they insist that it has nothing
to do with Islam. It's a mental illness.
The
Great Gun-Control Distraction. Since ISIS burst on the international scene, the death toll has more than
tripled. Jihadists have killed 73 American men and women in just two years. And that number would be much higher
if not for the courage and bravery of local police. The list is sobering:
• From April to June,
2014, Ali Muhammed Brown killed four Americans on a "mission of vengeance" against the United States.
•
On September 25, 2014, Alton Nolen beheaded an Oklahoma woman with a knife. His social media pages were covered
with evidence of jihadist leanings and motivations.
• On May 3, 2015, Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi
attacked an exhibit of Mohammed images in Garland, Texas. They wounded a security officer, but police killed them
before they were able to carry out mass murder.
• On July 16, 2015, Mohammad Abdulazeez killed five
people at two Chattanooga recruiting stations. FBI director James Comey declared that Abdulazeez was "inspired/motivated"
by terrorist propaganda.
• On November 4, 2015, Faisal Mohammed went on an ISIS-inspired stabbing
spree — wounding four — before he was killed by campus police.
• On December 2,
2015, Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik pledged allegiance to ISIS then killed 14 people and wounded 21 at a Christmas
party in San Bernardino, Calif.
• On January 8, 2015, Edward Archer pledged himself to ISIS and
attempted to assassinate a Philadelphia police officer. The wounded officer chased down and apprehended Archer before
he could commit any other acts of violence.
• On June 12, 2016, Omar Mateen pledged himself to
ISIS and killed 49 people and wound[ed] 53 at a gay nightclub in Orlando.
Platitudes
and Hashtags Won't Stop Terrorism. After the Charlie Hebdo massacre, the social media slogan "Je Suis Charlie"
went viral. After the ghastly Paris attacks last November, Facebook supporters swathed their profile pics in the French
flag. The victims of the San Bernardino jihadist assault in December got short shrift because the city unfortunately
doesn't have a flag to make virtue-signaling convenient. But after the Brussels slaughter in March, the French
tricoleur was swapped out for Belgium's black, yellow, and red. Now that fifty Orlando gay clubgoers are dead and
another fifty-plus wounded, rainbows abound. These are the touching but ultimately empty gestures of a culture that is
already resigned to losing the clash of civilizations. They will do nothing to save lives the next time
around — and there will continue to be many more "next times" throughout the West until we say no more, until we
refuse to accept that suffering terrorist savagery is our new normal. We must reverse our mindset, think like
conquerors instead of the conquered, and deal aggressively with the source of all this misery: Islam.
No,
We Are Not 'Doing Everything We Can'. It is a mistake — one that we insist on repeating —
to tell ourselves that the jihadists and ISIS groupies who perpetuate terrorist spectaculars such as the attack on the Pulse
nightclub outside Orlando are irrational, that they are mentally disorganized lunatics of the familiar-enough sort
exemplified by Jared Lee Loughner and John Salvi, who may or may not believe themselves to be acting in the service of a
particular cause. Lunacy is not what we are seeing with domestic jihadists. What we see instead is the pursuit of
specific cultural and political ends through acts of violence directed at symbolically important soft targets. We speak
of "lone wolf" jihadists as though this phenomenon were somehow independent of the wider Islamist project. It is
not. The model of "leaderless resistance" in the service of terrorist projects is not new, and it has not been employed
by the Islamists at random.
Under
Obama: 8 Islamic Terror Attacks That Could Have Been Prevented. It didn't take long after the attack at a gay
bar in Orlando, which claimed 49 lives and injured at least 53 others, for the public to learn that the terrorist, Omar
Mateen, had been on a terrorism watch list and was twice interviewed by the FBI. In fact, FBI director James Comey said
on Monday [6/13/2016] that there were "strong indications of radicalization." In other words, this attack didn't come out of
the blue. So why wasn't something done before Sunday? This has become a deeply troubling pattern during the Obama
administration. In fact, in all the past major Islamic terror attacks carried out on U.S. soil, federal officials
either ignored or overlooked warning signs that arguably could have prevented the carnage.
Trump:
'For every terror case known to public, there are dozens, dozens more'. Think about that and remember, thanks
to Obama policies, Customs and Border Patrol was forced to "modify" nearly a thousand terror suspect entries and remove all
references to terrorism. Meanwhile, both homegrown and immigrant/refugee terror attacks proliferate[.]
Another Day, Another Jihad
Attack. Wherever Islam goes, so goes its ethos. The barbarity and variety of actions of Islamic extremists are
seen daily around the globe, committed under the banner of Islam, and have become so commonplace that the world has come to view
them as part and parcel of a troubled humanity. And from time to time, the world is shocked into a passing and momentary
realization of the evil deeds these Islamist robots commit... and quickly gets over it and does nothing to seriously address this
affliction of humanity. [...] In short, Islam is busy with what it did from the time of its birth, fighting non-Muslims and
infighting. Violence is the animating force of Islam. Islam is a religion born through violence, raised by violence;
it thrives on violence and dies without violence.
Reality TV: Obama at the Mosque. [Scroll down]
Ever since the late 1960s, Muslim terrorism has been a growing part of the international mosaic. Remember all the airplane hijacks four decades ago that
spawned the intrusive international airport security and screening? What about Munich? The bombing of Pan Am flight 103? The Achille
Lauro? The first World Trade Center attack? 9-11? Indonesian bombings in Bali and Jakarta?? Boston? San Bernardino? These
are the more prominent of thousands of terrorist attacks mounted not, as liberal Bill Maher has reminded us, by blond Swedish women, but by Muslims.

while turning a blind eye to the horrible violence that is meted out daily in the name of their religion. This distasteful petulance
offers insight not only into the character of Islam, but also the America's impressive religious tolerance.
Obama's
Next Move is to Gang up on Israel. It took Senator Cruz to finally say that killing
our unarmed Marines and Navy personnel [in Chattanooga] is "an Act of War." So was the civilian massacre in New
York, Pennsylvania, and the Pentagon on 9/11/01. So were all the other jihadist attacks since 9/11.
These are not random "workplace accidents." They are controlled by nations like Iran and Saudi Arabia, and
therefore constitute open and declared aggression under international law. We are at war, and our
political class is lying to us about it.
A
Time to Confront Our Enemies at Home. Thanks to Obama's retreat from Iraq and the
Middle East, the jihad waged by Islamic terrorists is now being fought on American soil, instead of
on a battlefront in Fallujah and Anbar. Thanks to the borders Obama has destroyed and the tens of
thousands of legal immigrants the White House has decided to import from terrorist regions, the
enemy is among us. Thanks to Obama's denial that we are at war at all, the Islamic jihad is now
being waged in Chattanooga and Fort Hood, the fly over country that liberals and progressives have always
despised. This is not the first time that a military recruiting office in the South was attacked by
a Muslim terrorist. In 2009 — Obama's first year in office — Abdulhakim
Mujahid Muhammad opened fire on a military recruiting office in Little Rock, Arkansas, under orders from
Al Qaeda in Yemen, and killed Private William Long. It was the shot that should have been heard
around the country but wasn't, because America's Commander-in-Chief told us that Muhammad was a lone
crazed assassin, not a vanguard Islamic soldier.

under Obama is a Muslim.
The
Best Way to Deal With "Lone Wolf" Terror is to Grind ISIS Into the Dust. The single-most
persuasive thing you can do to "win the war of ideas" is obliterate ISIS. To the jihadist mind
ISIS's success is the best argument for more jihad. ISIS's success inspires new foot soldiers, leading
radical Muslims to believe that finally the tide is turning in their favor, that the caliphate is
upon us. Jihad thrives on success. Conversely, it withers in the face of defeat.
This should be a matter of common sense, but too many Americans misunderstand martyrdom, believing that
successful military operations are self-defeating because they "create martyrs." No, martyrs are
only truly inspiring (on a large scale) when they succeed, not when they fail.
Seven
Islamic Terrorist Attacks in USA in Seven Years for Obama Administration. On Thursday,
a Muslim man killed four U.S. Marines in attacks on military recruiting facilities in Chattanooga,
Tenn. The man, identified as Mohammad Youssef Abdulazeez, then died in a pitched gun battle
after he led police on a high-speed chase in a rented Mustang convertible. Abdulazeez, 24, was a
naturalized U.S. citizen born in Kuwait. [...] The terrorist attack by Abdulazeez marks the seventh
terrorist attack on U.S. soil by Muslims during Barack Obama's presidency. Two dozen people have
been killed in the attacks. Scores more have been seriously injured.
Pamela
Geller and the hijacking of America. [Scroll down] Jihadists drove a thousand
miles to enforce Sharia blasphemy laws. The cop who shot them to death likely prevented a gruesome
massacre. We are now being told that this would not have happened and everything would have been
okay if Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer had stayed quiet and didn't make any stupid moves, such as,
organizing the exhibition of Mohammed cartoons. This is exactly the behavior of passengers on a
hijacked plane. We hope that everything will be okay as long as we remain quiet and make no stupid
moves. We willingly trust the voices on TV and hope the government will sort it out. We want
to believe that every act of Islamic terrorism is an isolated incident, [...]
Islamic
State Beheader 'Jihadi John' Yet Another Case of 'Known Wolf' Terrorism. A man seen in
multiple ISIS propaganda videos speaking with a British accent and beheading Western hostages had
his identity revealed in the Washington Post this morning, and yet again the suspect is
another case of what I have termed "known wolf" syndrome since he was already known to authorities
before engaging in acts of terrorism.
Say it, Obama: 'Islamic'.
A recent news bulletin announced that police in Nova Scotia broke up a plot by two men who aimed to
carry out mass murder at a shopping mall and then commit suicide. Here is what the Associated
Press said about the plot in its second paragraph: "Police and other officials said it was not related to
Islamic terrorism." Whew, that's a relief. And a surprise. If you shared my instant reactions,
you also are wondering what [...] is going on with the Obama administration. When the liberal Associated Press
feels the need to address readers' assumptions about Islam and terrorism, we have a reached a tipping point.
When
Will Obama Get a Grip on Islamic Terrorism? Someone needs to tell President Obama that
the global War on Terror is alive and well, and not receding, as he would like Americans to believe.
Collen Hufford was beheaded in Oklahoma; in New York, an axe was embedded in the head of a New York
City Policeman. In Western Europe, Islamic extremists killed Jews and journalists in France, while
in Belgium there were shootouts. In Sydney, Australia, a hostage crisis resulted in two killed, and
in Canada, soldiers were murdered. There are reports that as many as 20 sleeper cells could be
ready to strike in France, Germany, Britain, Belgium, and the Netherlands.
Five examples of "isolated incidents:"
5
New Signs that the Jihad Against the West Is Just Getting Warmed Up. The Charlie
Hebdo and Hyper Cacher jihad massacres were not the beginning, and they're certainly not the
end. There will be many more killings, many more infidels struck down in the streets.
Jihad murder will become an ever more frequent feature of life in the West. And just this
past week there have been new signs that we are in for a long, tough war — made all the
tougher by the fact that only one side has the will to fight, a clear objective for which it is
fighting, and an indestructible tenacity enabling it to keep on fighting, no matter how long the odds.
Profiling the Islamic
"Lone Wolf". Lately, and too often, it's the ordinary-looking Muslims who have been
waging "lone wolf" jihad against Westerners. They haven't telegraphed their intentions by wearing
suicide vests or toting AK-47's and wearing ski-masks in public as they approach their targets. They
infiltrate crowds or stroll past a café and do what they came to do. Destroy.
The
blame game in the New York cop killings shows a demonization double standard. The 2009
Ft. Hood shooter was in contact with Al Qaeda and later admitted his murder rampage was on its
behalf. And, unlike the tea party crowd, Al Qaeda actually uses "eliminationist rhetoric" —
and not just rhetorically. And yet, in such cases, the knee-jerk response from the Obama administration
and of many liberals is to counsel the very restraint they deny to their domestic political opponents.
They try to minimize the event as an "isolated incident." Amazingly, the administration designated
the Ft. Hood killing "workplace violence."
Where
Was President Obama? An entire parade of infidel-hating fanatics targeted U.S. soldiers long before
Islamic State barbarians issued threats against our military personnel and their families this fall. What
happened in Canada — what ISIS wants worldwide — has been happening here for years under
Barry-come-lately's watch.
10
Acts of Jihad in America That Americans Haven't Heard About. Here are some recent acts
of jihad on American soil that you may have missed — all from this spring and summer.
Media
Matters Upset That Islamic Terror Group Being Identified As Such By 'Right Wing Media'. The gist of these defenses
of Islamic terrorists by lefties every time goes something like this: it's an "isolated incident" or a "marginalized" group
or, in the case of the Boston Marathon bombers, "they were basically loners." They are so desperate to say "all Islamists
aren't terrorists" that they make up ways to avoid saying that the key component in Islamic terrorism is the Islamic stuff.
If you press them, they'll begin barking "Timothy McVeigh!" like a chihuahua around a mailman.
Obama — Red Lines and Red Herrings.
Terror attacks or plots from Benghazi to Boston, Bulgaria to London, Detroit to Fort Hood, and Little Rock to Times Square are signs that
terrorists are still alive and kicking. Obama wants to ignore or belittle these events, just as some did before 9-11. Yes,
there were no 9-11-scale attacks, but there was a new 9-11 assault in Benghazi by Al-Qaeda. There were also more anti-US attacks
and attempted attacks in the last four years than the previous seven.
If you see something, say
nothing. It was a report of the now numbingly familiar sort. Witnesses at the synagogue in Paris recounted
that an Iranian immigrant had been screaming "Allahu Akbar!" while he chased the rabbi and his son. When he finally
caught up, he slashed away at them with a box-cutter, causing severe lacerations. Nevertheless, the Associated Press assured
readers that "[a]n official investigation was underway to determine a possible motive."
A
multicultural society where all truths are equal stokes the flames of evils like Woolwich. There has been the usual outpouring
of predictable responses since Drummer Rigby was murdered by (alleged, for legal reasons) Islamists: Iraq war; Muslim anger at that war;
EDL every bit as big a threat to our way of life as Islamist murderers, etc. Every report is couched in ultra-cautious terms by the media:
after two war memorials were desecrated this week, most reports stated that the police couldn't say whether it was the act of Islamists or some
trouble-stirring, shadowy "far-Right" group.
Peter King: Stop being 'politically correct'.
Rep. Peter King is calling for greater law enforcement focus on Muslim communities, arguing that authorities should put aside what is
"politically correct" and recognize that America faces major threats from Islamic terrorism. "Obviously the main international base, the
terrorist threats are coming from the Muslim community," King (R-N.Y.) told POLITICO on Saturday [4/20/2013]. "There have been
16 terror plots against New York [since Sept. 11, 2001], all Islamist-based.
Stay calm, all is hell! After every terror plot
since 9/11, officials rushed to calm the public by saying the plotters were not directly working for al Qaeda or another known organization. They used
phrases like "one off," an "isolated extremist" or, in the Boston case, "self-radicalized" to downplay the threat. Even when they were wrong —
the underwear bomber had training in Yemen — the aim was to assure Americans there was no imminent danger of another large-scale horror like 9/11.
The Top 50 Liberal Media Bias Examples. [#43] Lone Wolf Terrorist:
[There is a] general penchant of the media to ignore the Muslim connection to many of the mass shootings since 911. While the Tea Party or conservatives are
often the first people the media blames for such crimes, Islam is consistently downplayed or entirely ignored as playing a role in these shootings or attempted
terror attacks.
Breaking Apart the United States: Part II. I was delighted to hear that a Muslim
terrorist was caught in NYC the other day. Mayor Bloomberg and his people assured us that the "lone wolf" (a phrase repeated ad nauseam) had been
apprehended. Hurray! Unless you are one of those worrywarts concerned about the millions of other "lone wolves" still out there, you can now rest
secure in your bed at night.
Obama and the Power of Propaganda.
Obama says there is no terror and no war, while the media assure us Obama won the war. Both are wrong. There were
more actual and abortive terror attacks in the U.S. in the last three years than in the previous eight. There were
30 assaults or plots on army bases, transportation hubs, and synagogues: from Little Rock to Seattle, from Riverdale
to a New York air base, from Fort Hood Texas (the massacre and a later copy-cat plot), to New York's subways, from a plane over
Detroit to a Times Square car bomb. Most plots are not on the scale of 9-11, but there is a pattern of growing danger,
not a diminishing threat.
Media's Deadly Bias. Writing articles
on terrorism in a post 9/11 world becomes more difficult each day. It's certainly not due to the lack of terror
or terror arrests; that, unfortunately, is never ending. Since 9/11 there have been 18,598 deadly terror attacks
all in the name of Islam. The writing on the subject of terror for myself and others has become a 'cat and mouse
game' with the media and the current administration. I cannot even count the amount of times arrests have been
made in a terror plot here in the U.S. and there is absolutely no further information available. When I say no
further information, I am referring to the suspect's gender, age and of course, the name.
Murdering While Muslim. Recently a nice
Muslim fellow from Chicago by the name of Mohammad Alkaramla was convicted of sending bomb threats to a Jewish High
School. Like most serial killers, his neighbors described him as peaceful and friendly. Just the sort of
chap you want to invite to a barbecue or a bombing. His defense was that he wasn't threatening to kill Jewish
students because he was the follower of a bigoted religion, but because he was upset over his ex-wife leaving to return
home to Jordan. Mohammad Alkaramla joins a long list of Muslim terrorists who did what they did only because of
"personal problems".
Terrorism, Sure. Oh, but it's 'Not a
Conspiracy'! How many terror attacks or attempted terror attacks have occurred on U.S. soil since 9/11?
Five? Six? Ten? According to our government each and every one of these attacks, whether failed or not,
have had one thing in common: "they are not part of a conspiracy." Clearly, however, our officials are
lying to us on this count. ... There most certainly is a conspiracy going on here. One single thing links
each and every one of these many successful and attempted terror attacks: Islam.
The
anti-conspiracy theorists. After the failed Times Square car bombing, Homeland Security Secretary
Janet Napolitano immediately opined that it was a "one-off." Sen. Chuck Schumer chimed in, "The odds are
quite high that this was a lone wolf." Translation: Nothing to see here, just a random crazy and a
failed plot of no larger consequence.
Bomb Was Crude but
Lethal. A plot to blow up Times Square over the weekend appears less sophisticated than others that
authorities have thwarted since the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Between then and now, there
have been at least 10 such attempts to bomb New York City institutions, from landmarks such as the Brooklyn
Bridge to a lesser-known synagogue in the Bronx. All have been foiled with the help of informants and inside
cooperators.
Hit-and-Run Jihad Comes to
America. A radical Islamic terrorist attack doesn't necessarily need several participants
or a direct connection to a terrorist organization. It doesn't need to be spectacular or done by
someone motivated by nothing other than theology. It just needs to be an act of violence aimed at
instilling fear in order to advance the cause of radical Islam, and it is because of this failure to
understand what qualifies as a "terrorist attack" that the country does not see how many such acts
have actually occurred.
The Myth Of
The Lone Gunman. Since the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, the claim has often been made that no
further acts of terrorism have occurred on U.S. soil. But anyone following the news closely knows better.
While there has not yet been another large-scale attack, a number of terrorist plots have been broken up and a
variety of suspicious crimes and incidents have occurred across the nation. But each time, authorities
seem to have made every effort to downplay the terrorism angle.

Amateurs
– Not: All Terror Plots are Serious. Foiled terror plots often will seem ridiculous
and unlikely, especially when they are pre-empted.
If the 9/11 plot had been disrupted at its very
inception — with jihadis playing flight-simulator games in Afghanistan — it would have
seemed laughable. This is why even foiled plots deserve to be taken seriously.
The Terror Nobody Knows: Thwarted Attacks on the U.S..
In July 2005, the Los Angeles Police Department caught a group of men who had been robbing gas stations in the area. While
investigating, police uncovered something far worse: The gas station hits were bankrolling a terrorist plot to attack
National Guard facilities, synagogues, the Israeli consulate and Los Angeles International Airport.
List of Thwarted Terror Attacks Since Sept. 11.
Islamic attacks on our airline industry.
The list of incidents involving Muslim passengers disrupting flight operations aboard domestic aircraft is increasing,
while criminal charges against the suspicious and disruptive Muslim passengers are not. Instead, accusations of
racial profiling, alarmist and reactionary responses by the airlines, flight crews and passengers are becoming more
widespread, despite the historical significance of such incidents and the consequential devastation and loss of life
caused by these very same "dry runs" footnoted in the 9/11 Commission Report.
Islamic Radicalization
U.S.A.. If a major homegrown terrorist attack happens on U.S. soil in the coming years, 2009 will
be looked at as the year when the warning signs were missed. According to the Rand Corporation, the U.S.
has experienced 30 homegrown terrorism plots since 9/11. One-third of these occurred in 2009; a frightening
spike that warrants more attention than it is currently being given by public officials.
Merry Christmas
from the World of Islam. With attention focused on the flagrant security breaches around
Flight 253 on Christmas Day, too little has been made of the timing of the attack. Most readers
will be surprised to learn that this was not the only Christmas attack on Christians. Here is a list
of other holiday attacks which I found without extensive research... Isn't it noteworthy that you did
not hear about any of this from the general media?
The
Mainstream Media: Fourth Estate Or Fifth Column? Every time we allow the administration
and the MSM to categorize Major Hasan, the Fort Hood murderer, as a "lone crackpot" despite his clear
connection to the Islamic jihadists' network, we lose our edge in recognizing more potential threats.
30 Terrorist Plots Against the
U.S. Foiled Since 9/11. Sheer luck and civilian bravery played roles in thwarting some of
these attacks. Additionally, U.S. efforts in the war on terrorism, including operations in Afghanistan,
have helped to weed out terrorist sanctuaries before they can organize attacks. Finally, domestic
counterterrorism tools put in place since 9/11 have helped stop terrorists from operating on U.S. soil.
The dots some don't want to connect.
[Scroll down slowly] At Fort Hood, Maj. Hasan jumped on a table and gunned down his comrades while screaming,
"Allahu Akbar!", which is Arabic for "Nothing to see here" and an early indicator of pre-Post-Traumatic Stress
Disorder. The Times Square Bomber, we are assured by The Washington Post, CNN and Newsweek, was upset by
foreclosure proceedings on his house. Mortgage-related issues. Nothing to do with months of training
at a Taliban camp in Waziristan.
Taxi Jihad: New York
Muslim Cabbies Kill, Maim and Go on Driving. The overwhelming majority of cabbies who killed and maimed passengers and pedestrians
in the past five years are back behind the wheel. Of 16 fatal or serious crashes since 2009 examined by The Post, only two of the drivers
had their licenses revoked, according to a review based on a Freedom of Information Act request. The shocking findings reveal that in even
the most egregious cases, drivers with blood on their bumpers can remain active Taxi & Limousine Commission license holders, [...]
We Need to
Call It Terrorism. Within three days there have been two jihadist attacks in Canada,
carried out by Canadian citizens who recently converted to Islam. No terrorist organization has
claimed responsibility, at least as yet. Nevertheless, Prime Minister Stephen Harper showed no
reluctance in calling the terrorists ... terrorists. Bravo!
The
Great 'Workplace Violence' Epidemic. As if Ebola were not serious enough, a new, and
perhaps more lethal, epidemic appears to be spreading throughout the world from the Middle East to
North America. It goes under the rubric "workplace violence." The possibility of such an
epidemic first came to our attention in November 2009 when Major Nidal Malik Hasan — an
Army psychiatrist who corresponded with the late Yemen-based imam Anwar Al-Awlaki and who lectured
his fellow doctors on jihad — shouted "Allah Akbhar" and fatally shot 13 people, injuring
30 others, at Ft. Hood, near Killeen, Texas. The U.S. Department of Defense and federal law
enforcement agencies classified the shootings as acts of "workplace violence."
President
Obama, Silent. President Obama says he's "shaken" by this week's violent attacks on
three soldiers in Ottawa by an Islamic jihadist. He immediately phoned Canadian prime minister
Stephen Harper to offer support and "solidarity." He vowed to "remain vigilant." Too bad Obama
didn't show the same resolve after multiple attacks and plots against our troops by Muslim
terrorists on our soil. And I'm not just talking about the "workplace violence" of jihadist
Nidal Hasan, whose Koran-inspired Fort Hood rampage took the lives of 13 American servicemen and
servicewomen and one unborn baby.
Hatchet
Suspect Posted Pro-Jihad, Anti-US Comments. It's pretty telling and all too typical
that we have to resort to very offbeat websites (AKA citizen journalists) to find any coverage of
the background on the NYC hatchet attacker. But all the quotes are from still active links to his
Facebook page and YouTube comments. Funny, how our media guardians can't find them. [...] And yet
our news media still can't find a motive. But don't worry. Mr. Thompson wasn't a terrorist.
And even if he was, he was just a 'lone wolf'. There is no reason to be concerned about this becoming
a problem.
Rep.
Mike Rogers: Lone wolf terror threat 'huge and getting worse'. House Intelligence
Committee Chairman Mike Rogers argued Sunday [10/26/2014] that the threat of lone wolf terrorists pose to
national security is "huge and getting worse." "In Britain, they're very close to being overwashed,
meaning their resources can't keep up with the individuals that have both gone to Syria and fought
and have come back," the Michigan Republican said on CBS' "Face the Nation."
'Lone
Wolf,' or 'Known Wolf'? The Ongoing Counter-Terrorism Failure. The separate terror
attacks in Canada and a long string of terror attacks here in the U.S. show that the
counter-terrorism policies of Western governments are fundamentally broken, and are
directly responsible for getting their citizens killed.
Survival
of the witless? Unlikely to impossible. America as a whole is no more perspicacious
than the mayor of Ottawa, who in response to Wednesday's murder of a Canadian soldier by an Islamic
zealot dressed in black from head to toe, said the attack had "origins as yet not fully known,
causes not yet fully understood." Canadian police, the story noted, "would not speculate on a
motive for the shooting." Of course, they would not speculate. If they told the truth, that it
was another case of an Islamic extremist waging jihad against the West, they would be fired for inciting hate,
or some such politically correct nonsense. Survival of the fittest apparently may preclude not just
Americans but all of Western civilization from having a role in the 22nd century. Because, shackled by
political correctness as we are, we are definitely not fit to survive.
The Big 'Lone Wolf'
Dodge. The current breakout of supposed "lone wolves," like the absurd "workplace
violence" euphemism, is yet another example of the Obama administration attempting to distract the
public from the issues, in this case the most important issue of all, the continuing and growing
global spread of violent Islamic ideology. Blame anything but Islam as the cause of a problem and
instruct the FBI, our intelligence agencies and, alas, even our military always to do the same. Call
it "lone wolves," "workplace violence," or even "the man in the moon." Call it anything you
want — just don't use the I-word. But that's very point, isn't it? There wouldn't be
any "lone wolves," assuming that's what they are, were there not an Islam to make them feel not
alone. You don't see "lone wolves" adhering to another religion or ideology.
Random Thoughts on Ebola, Islam
and Hillary. [Scroll down] The recent attack in Ottawa, Canada, in which a young
soldier was killed, was committed by a Muslim, Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, whom it was first erroneously
reported was a recent convert. In actually he had been a Muslim for at least seven years. Another
reported convert, Alton Molen, beheaded a co-worker in Oklahoma in September. In the United Kingdom,
a woman was beheaded in broad daylight by a machete wielding Muslim. All one has to do is Google
'beheadings' or 'convert to Muslim murders' and you will then read U.S. official reports that these
incidents are not terrorist related. At least in Canada, Prime Minister, Stephen Harper, is honest
and brave enough to call it what it is-terrorism. President Obama nevertheless utters simplistic
remarks such as "Tragic events" or "senseless violence" when it is not senseless at all but deliberate
terrorism against the western infidels.
Lone Wolf Jihad.
What would possess a man to take a hatchet and attempt to kill police in broad daylight (New York
City)? Or mow down civilians (Jerusalem) or soldiers in uniform (Montreal suburb of St.-Jean-sur-Richelieu)?
Or behead innocents at work (Oklahoma) or on the street (London, U.K.)? Or shoot unarmed soldiers
with the intent of killing the country's Prime Minister (Ottawa)? Western politicians are stumped,
resorting to words like "senseless" or "madness". However, the answer lies in the new and improved
jihad strategy that is gaining traction throughout the world. [...] For lack of a better understanding,
the mainstream media and many Western politicians attribute the cause of the recent attacks from this
past week (including the two September beheadings in Oklahoma and the U.K.), to the random and deranged
actions of lone wolves or madmen troubled by psychological issues; the insanity defense is often employed.
These barbaric attacks have nothing to do with Islam, officials insist, despite the killers referring to the
same source — that being jihad and Allah — to motivate their barbaric actions.
Security
services have foiled FORTY terror plots since 2005. Police and security services have
thwarted 40 terrorists plots in Britain since the July 7 attacks nine years ago, Theresa May
revealed today [10/24/2014]. The foiled atrocities including 'marauding' 'Mumbai-style' gun
attacks streets, an attempt to blow up the London Stock Exchange and airplanes, and murder troops
and a British ambassador. Unveiling a raft of new counter-terror measures, the Home Secretary
warned the threat to Britain is 'greater than it ever has been' and stressed the terrorists 'only
have to be lucky once'.
Jihad
in America: List of Muslim Terror Attacks since 9/11. Islamic terror in the homeland is nothing new. What is
new is that despite the Obama administration and enemedia's relentless campaign to scrub and obfuscate the motive behind the
hate, violence and war, the American people are finally waking up.
Free
Speech Crackdown: Europe tells British press not to reveal if terrorists are Muslims. Meddling Brussels
has said the British press should not report when terrorists are Muslims in a slew of demands to the Government to crack down
on the media. A report from the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) found there was an increase
in hate speech and racist violence in the UK from 2009 to March 2016. Blaming the press, ECRI Chair Christian Ahlund,
said: "It is no coincidence that racist violence is on the rise in the UK at the same time as we see worrying examples
of intolerance and hate speech in the newspapers, online and even among politicians."

Vienna, Austria
November 2, 2020
Vienna
terrorist Kujtim Fejzulai took selfie with AK-47, machete before attack. The ISIS wannabe who gunned down four
people and wounded several others in Vienna posted a chilling photo of himself shortly before the rampage —
clutching an AK-47 assault rifle, a handgun and a machete. Kujtim Fejzulai, 20, an Austrian-North Macedonian dual
citizen with a previous terror conviction, shared the image on Instagram as he pledged his allegiance to the jihadists and
their leader, Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurashi, the UK's Mirror reported. The radicalized gunman was jailed for trying
to join the terror group in Syria and was released in December 2019, according to the news outlet.
At
least 2 dead in 'repulsive terror attack' at multiple sites in Vienna. Terrorists opened fire at several sites
Monday evening [11/2/2020] in central Vienna, including in the area of a major synagogue and the offices of the Jewish
community, killing at least two people and wounding 15. Several suspects were still at large after midnight, Austrian
authorities said. Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz and Interior Minister Karl Nehammer both said the incidents were a
terror attack with multiple perpetrators. "We are victims of a repulsive terror attack in the federal capital that is
still ongoing," Kurz said hours after the gunfire erupted.
Austria
Authorities Say a Third Person Has Died in Shooting. A man who had previously tried to join the Islamic State
group rampaged in Vienna armed with an automatic rifle and a fake explosive vest, fatally shooting four people before he was
killed by police, Austrian authorities said Tuesday [11/3/2020].
At
least two dead and 15 injured in Austrian terror attack. At least two people have been killed and 15 others
injured in six gun attacks and a reported 'suicide bomb explosion' near a synagogue in Vienna on the city's final night
before coronavirus lockdown. A huge manhunt is currently underway for multiple attackers armed with rifles following
the horrific shootings, with the first near the synagogue reported at 8pm local time. One attacker is thought to have
'blown themselves [sic] up' during the rampage with another arrested and one shot dead by police. A police officer is
also thought to have been shot and seriously injured. Vienna mayor Michael Ludwig said 15 people were admitted to
hospital, seven with serious injuries.
Nice, France
October 29, 2020
Canadian
Imam Proclaims The Teacher Beheaded In France Was "Filthy Excuse For a Human Being". Canadian imam Younus
Kathrada spoke about the re-publishing of the Charlie Hebdo cartoons mocking the Prophet Muhammad and the killing of French
schoolteacher Samuel Paty, who was murdered by a Muslim youth for showing them to his class, in a Friday sermon delivered at
Muslim Youth Victoria on October 23, 2020. "In any event, not too long ago, a teacher in France chose to show those
insulting cartoons to his class, at school. And of course, some of the Muslim students who were there were very annoyed
and upset and they objected — as did their parents. They spoke up, but nobody bothered listening to
them. Nobody paid any attention to them." [Video clip]
Three
dead as woman beheaded in knife attack in Nice, France. A knife-wielding attacker shouting "Allahu Akbar"
beheaded a woman and killed two other people in a suspected terrorist incident at a church in the French city of Nice on
Thursday, police and officials said. The attacker was confirmed by French police to have been a 21-year-old Tunisian
national, who entered the country via Italy. However, further details regarding his identity remain unclear.
Another
Muslim Terrorist Attack Shakes France, Three Dead in Stabbing Attack. Three people have died and several others
were wounded following yet another Islamic terrorist attack in France, this time in the city of Nice. Police shot and
detained the terrorist. There aren't too many details about him as of this writing, though it is alleged that he was a
21-year-old male of Tunisian extraction and that he was acting alone.
The Editor says...
Acting alone, really? Was he not egged on by his imam? Was he not a passenger on a ship full of similar invaders posing
as "refugees?" Was he not following the example of numerous other Islamic terrorists in France?
French
police reportedly stop alleged copycat attack after three killed in Nice. French police foiled another attack
Thursday by stopping a man near a church in a suburb of Paris after he told his father he wanted to "do as in Nice,"
referring to the killing of three people earlier in the day, according to a report. The suspect was arrested near the
Saint-Martin's Church in Sartrouville, were he was believed to be in possession of a knife, Le Parisien reported.
Alerted by the man's father about the alleged plot, police rushed to the scene and arrested the man in his vehicle, according
to the news outlet. The suspect allegedly intended to carry out an attack similar to the one that took place in the
Mediterranean city, where an assailant armed with a knife killed three people.
Woman
decapitated and two more killed outside French church in suspected terrorism attack. An armed attacker
shouting, "Allahu Akbar," beheaded a woman and killed two others at a church in the French city of Nice Thursday morning
[10/29/2020], in a suspected terrorism attack, according to officials. The assailant was wounded by police and
hospitalized after the killings at the Notre Dame Church, less than a mile from the site where, in 2016, another attacker
plowed a truck into a Bastille Day crowd, killing dozens. Christian Estrosi, the mayor of Nice, said the attacker, who
has been identified as Brahim Aouissaoui, a 21-year-old Tunisian migrant, had shouted the phrase "Allahu Akbar," or God is
greatest, even after he had been detained, according to the Guardian. He arrived in France earlier this month
after quarantining upon his arrival on the Italian island of Lampedusa in late September.
Here's
What You Need to Know About the Recent Islamist Terrorist Attacks in France. Samuel Paty was brutally
decapitated Oct. 16 outside a middle school in a north Paris suburb where he worked. Paty, 47, a history and geography
teacher, was targeted by an 18-year-old Muslim incensed that Paty had shown his class controversial cartoons from the French
satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo. The Paty incident would soon become part of a new wave of Islamist violence in
France. On Thursday, a man with a knife entered a church and killed three in Nice, France. One of the victims was
said to be "virtually beheaded" in a similar fashion to what happened to Paty. The suspect, whot and wounded by police,
was reported to have repeated the phrase "Allahu Akbar," the Arabic chant of "God is greater," over and over.
Brahim
Aouissaoui named as suspected terrorist in knife attack in Nice, France. French officials have identified the
terror suspect in Thursday's horrific fatal knife attack in Nice as Brahim Aouissaoui, a Tunisian migrant who entered France
illegally. The 21-year-old had been in the country for less than a month before he allegedly killed two women
worshippers and a male sacristan at the city's Notre Dame Basilica, The Guardian reported. An image of Aouissaoui in
custody after being shot by police at the scene was provided to the photo agency Backgrid by a police source. He was
shot by police while shouting "Allahu akbar!" moments after the gruesome attack left three dead, and remains in custody.
The Editor says...
Oh! He "remains in custody." How informative. An illegal immigrant, is he? There's a
shocker. A violent Muslim? What are the chances? (Answer: 100%)

Tunisian terrorist poses for photo on the day he arrived in Italy on a migrant boat. Pictured smiling just
weeks before massacring three people at a Catholic church in Nice, this is the face of terrorist killer Brahim Aoussaoui as
he entered mainland Europe. The picture was taken by authorities in the Italian port city of Bari, where Aoussaoui was
taken ashore on October 8 having spent 20 days in coronavirus quarantine — first on the island of Lampedusa, where
he landed on September 20, and then on board the Italian quarantine ship Rhapsody.
The Editor says...
He came to France as an illegal alien, and committed murder six weeks later!
Jihadist
murders three worshippers — including two who were beheaded — Inside Nice church + Gunman screaming
'Allahu Akbar'is shot dead by cops. France has been struck by two terror attacks within hours of each other as
three people were killed — two of them beheaded — in an attack inside a church in Nice before a man
wielding a knife was shot dead by police in Avignon. The first attack began around 9 am at the Notre Dame basilica
in Nice where a knifeman — believed to be a 21-year-old Tunisian migrant — beheaded an elderly female
parishioner and a male church warden, fatally stabbed a second woman, wounded several others, and was then shot and arrested
by police. Two hours later, an armed man threatened people on the streets of Avignon — 120 miles from
Nice — while shouting 'Allahu Akbar' before he was fatally shot by police.

These guys are immigrants, not migrants. They are in France to stay, not to visit.
They are in France to take over the country, not to assimilate.

Muslims
Claim Samuel Paty Murder Was Staged By French Authorities To Frame The Muslims. In a Friday, October 23, 2020
sermon at Masjid As-Sunnah An-Nabawiyyah North Miami, Imam Fadi Kablawi said that the recent beheading of French schoolteacher Samuel
Paty was "bogus," "fiction," and a "bedtime story." He said that he does not approve of the murder of Paty, but that he does not
believe it was a Chechen who killed him. Dr. Kablawi suggested that French authorities "made up this story" and took
a Muslim prisoner, shot him, and then killed Paty in order to accuse the Muslims of the crime.
CNN-Linked
Paper Threatens Satirists of Muhammad After Teacher Beheading: 'Don't Take a Pen to a Gunfight'. A U.S.
newspaper that boasts of its links with CNN, the New York Times, and Time magazine has published an opinion
piece which appears to endorse violent reactions to the satirization of the Islamic prophet, Muhammad. The
article — which appears to endorse a kind of blasphemy law for protecting Islam from critique or
ridicule — focuses on the Charlie Hebdo magazine's depictions of Muhammad. It comes just days after a
teacher, Samuel Paty, was decapitated by a Muslim refugee for discussing depictions of Muhammad with his class.

Mohammad in class.
France
Plans to Expel Radicals After Islamist Terrorist Attack. France plans to expel over 200 radical foreigners
after the killing of a French school teacher in what French president Emmanuel Macron called an "Islamist terrorist attack,"
Fox News reported Sunday [10/18/2020]. The 231 alleged radicals were identified by the File of Alerts for the
Prevention of Terrorist Attacks, which French media say is a primary tracker of terrorism within the country. Of the
individuals identified, 180 are currently detained, and French authorities plan to soon arrest the other 51. Paris already
had plans to expel all the radicals listed, but the attack on the French citizen and school teacher accelerated those plans,
Macron's government confirmed. French authorities also said 11 people have so far been arrested in connection with the
killing.
Allahu Akbar.
We haven't seen a lot of Islamic terrorism here in the U.S. lately, but yesterday a history teacher was decapitated in Paris:
["]A history teacher who had shown caricatures of Islam's Prophet Muhammed in class was on Friday decapitated and
his assailant shot dead by French police as they tried to arrest him, police and prosecutors said.["] [...] There may
have been a connection to a terrorist group: ["]Prosecutors said they were treating the incident as 'a murder linked
to a terrorist organization' and related to a 'criminal association with terrorists.'["]

'shouting Allahu Akbar' beheads Paris teacher who had shown cartoons of Prophet Mohammed to his pupils. The
French President Emmanuel Macron denounced what he called an 'Islamist terrorist attack' after a teenager shouting Allahu
Akbar allegedly beheaded a school teacher with a knife in Paris. The victim was said to have been a middle school
history teacher who had enraged parents by displaying cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed to pupils. The attacker, whose
identity has not been officially established, was shot by French officers as they tried to arrest him and later died of his
injuries, police said.

Why the "probe?" Is there any doubt the perpetrator was a Muslim? Is there any doubt that he shouted "Allahu

Suspect
in new Charlie Hebdo attack angered by republished cartoons, say Paris police. The man arrested after a knife
attack on two people outside the former offices of the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo told detectives he had been
angered by its publication of cartoons mocking the prophet Muhammad, French media reported yesterday [9/25/2020]. The
suspect, believed to be an 18-year-old born in Pakistan, is thought to have arrived in France three years ago as an
unaccompanied minor. "He was not known to be radicalised," the French interior minister, Gérard Darmanin, told
France 2 television adding that the man was not on the country's security alert list. "He arrived in France three
years ago as a lone minor. We are currently verifying his age," Darmanin added. "Clearly it was an act of
terrorism."
Four
Stabbed in Knife Attack Near Former Charlie Hebdo Offices in Paris. Two people were stabbed on Friday
[9/25/2020] in a knife attack outside the former offices of satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo in Paris, multiple
outlets reported. Police arrested a suspect shortly afterwards, but did not say whether it was a terrorist
attack. The stabbing comes five years after two terrorists entered the magazine's offices armed with various weapons
and opened fire on magazine staff, killing twelve and injuring eleven. The terrorists targeted Charlie Hebdo because it
had published material mocking Islam and the prophet Muhammad.

Knife-wielding
terrorists have targeted Brits four times in eight months — this must stop. How was it allowed to
happen again? Suspected terrorism on the streets of England by someone who was released from prison just 16 days
earlier. Khari Saadallah, who arrived here from Libya in 2012 and was granted leave to remain in the UK for five years
in 2018, seems to have been a ticking timebomb. Authorities are reported to have known the asylum seeker was an IS
sympathiser who wanted to travel to Syria to fight.
All
3 victims stabbed to death in U.K. park were reportedly members of the LGBTQ community. All three men who were
stabbed to death in a park near London last week were members of the LGBTQ community, The Guardian reported. On
Saturday afternoon, friends David Wails, James Furlong and Joe Ritchie-Bennett, a Philadelphia native, were relaxing at a
park in the south England town of Reading after attending a Black Lives Matter protest nearby. According to a statement
released by the Thames Valley Police department, officers were called to Forbury Gardens around 7 p.m. after they were
informed that a number of people had been stabbed.
What
isn't being said about the Reading attack victims. On Saturday evening, Khairi Saadallah went on a stabbing
spree in Forbury Gardens, Reading. His victims were three gay men, James Furlong, David Wails and Joe
Ritchie-Bennett. It has since emerged that the 25-year old suspect, who is now in police custody, came to the UK from
Libya in 2012. He is reported to have come to the attention of MI5 last year as an individual who had the potential to travel
overseas for terrorism purposes. The Security Service apparently decided that he was not an immediate risk. The
families of Furlong, Wails and Ritchie-Bennett might beg to differ on that last point. But who knows. So far
there has been almost no interest expressed in the possible motives of the attacker. Quite possibly there is a mental
health component. In which case I would expect that to be looked into. Quite possibly there will be some
drugs-related component. In which case I would expect the usual voices to demand an investigation into that. But
anything else to see here? Any other reason why a migrant from Libya who was given asylum in the UK might want to go
around stabbing gay men? Well who would even ask such questions? What do you want to find? Bigot.
Three
Dead in Terrorist Stabbing Attack By Libyan Man in a Park Near London. British police are saying that a Libyan
refugee, Khairi Saadallah, is responsible for the terrorist attack in a park in Reading about 40 miles outside of
London. Three people were killed and 3 injured. The attack occurred on Saturday night where people were mingling
in Forbury Gardens after the government lifted lockdown provisions. The attacks were apparently random and brutal.

Suspected
cop-stabber yelled 'Allahu akbar' during attack, police say. The man accused of shooting two cops and stabbing
a third in Brooklyn this week screamed "Allahu akbar!" three times during the unprovoked attack, police said Saturday
[6/6/2020]. Authorities have so far been unable to tie the man, Dzenan Camovic, to any organized terror group, but
there are indications that his alleged tactics and ambush were similar to anti-police attacks in Paris and elsewhere,
according to John Miller, the NYPD's deputy commissioner of counter terrorism. "All the hallmarks that would be out of
the terrorist playbook," Miller said at a briefing from NYPD headquarters in lower Manhattan
FBI
joins investigation into ambush on cop in Brooklyn. The FBI has joined the investigation into the ambush on a
police officer with a knife in Brooklyn. The officer was on an anti-looting patrol Wednesday in Flatbush when a man
walked up behind him and stabbed him in the neck, police said, setting off a struggle in which the assailant was shot and two
other officers suffered gunshot injuries to their hands. The FBI is looking into a possible terror connection to the
ambush, according to police. Sources who have seen video of the stabbing told FOX 5 News it was "utterly chilling."

Al-Qaeda
claims Pensacola jihad massacre, says Saudi airman had been planning for years to attack a US base. "Foreign
nationals participating in U.S. training go through a vetting process. The Pentagon says it includes screening for any
illicit drug activities, support for terrorist organizations, corruption and criminal conduct." Clearly the screening
process is inadequate, in large part because of the Pentagon's denial and willful ignorance regarding the motivating ideology
behind the jihad threat.
This Apple-FBI Fight
Is Different From the Last One. In 2016, the iPhone encryption debate ended in a draw. Don't count on
2020's scuffle over the Pensacola shooter's devices to play out the same way.
AG
Barr: Navy base shooting was terrorism and we need Apple's help to unlock the shooter's phones. It became
pretty clear last month that this is where the investigation was heading, now it has been confirmed. In a press
conference today, Attorney General Barr stated, "This was an act of terrorism." Barr added, "The evidence shows that the
shooter was motivated by jihadist ideology. During the course of the investigation, we learned that the shooter posted
a message on Sep. 11th of this year stating 'The countdown has begun.'" Barr went on to say that the shooter had
posted anti-American and anti-Israeli messages online including just two hours before the attack.
Mass
shooting at Pensacola Navy base WAS terrorism says AG Bill Barr - and the Saudi cadet responsible was motivated by 'jihadist
ideology'. US Attorney General William Barr has demanded that Apple unlock two cellphones used by a gunman who
carried out a mass shooting at a Florida military base. Barr made the high profile request at a press conference on
Monday where he branded the attack an 'act of terrorism'. Three American sailors were killed and eight other people
were wounded when Saudi military trainee Mohammed Alshamrani opened fire in a classroom at the US Naval Air Station in
Pensacola on December 6. Alshamrani, 21, who was training to be a naval flight officer, was then killed in a
shoot-out with police.

More
than a dozen Saudi servicemen to be expelled from US after review of December shooting at Naval Air Station.
More than a dozen Saudi servicemen training at US military installations will be expelled from the United States after a
review that followed the deadly shooting last month at a Naval Air Station in Pensacola, Florida, multiple sources told CNN.
The Saudis are not accused of aiding the 21-year-old Saudi Air Force second lieutenant who killed three American sailors
in the December shooting, two sources said, but some are said to have connections to extremist movements, according to a
person familiar with the situation.

Marine
Corps Authorizes Concealed Carry on Bases Following Recent Shootings. The Marine Corps announced Tuesday that
it was authorizing Marines and civilians in Marine Corps law enforcement roles to carry personal firearms while on base.
Lieutenant General George Smith, Deputy Commandant, Plans, Policies, and Operations, announced in a press release that the
Marines were changing their policy following December shootings at Naval Air Station Pensacola and at Pearl Harbor Naval
Shipyard in Hawaii, which left five dead. "These tragic events prompted Headquarters Marine Corps (HQMC) to accelerate
existing efforts to develop concealed carry policies," the memo reads.

Quick reactions and mitigation are great, but how about going upstream toward the problem and eliminating
the threat in the first place by getting rid of the Middle-eastern Muslim vistors?
Would-be
terrorists could exploit gun law loophole used by Saudi pilot in Pensacola shooting rampage: FBI. The FBI
has issued a warning that would-be terrorists and criminals could exploit the same U.S. gun law loophole that allowed a Saudi
military pilot to legally purchase a handgun he allegedly used in a deadly shooting rampage this month at a Florida naval air
station. The warning was included in an intelligence report released on Monday in which FBI officials said, "This
assessment is made with high confidence." Mohammed Alshamrani, 21, a second lieutenant in the Saudi air force who was
in the United States for flight training, was able to buy a Glock 9 mm pistol from a Florida gun shop by taking advantage
of a federal gun law exception that allows foreign nationals to legally purchase weapons with a valid hunting license.
Lawmaker:
'No interference' from Saudi in US probe into Navy base attack. A US lawmaker says the Saudi kingdom must
engage in "no interference" in the American investigation into the Saudi aviation officer, who killed three people and
wounded more Friday at Naval Air Station Pensacola in Florida. Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) said in a tweet on
Saturday that Mohammed Saeed al-Shamrani "wasn't alone." "Just spoke w Saudi Ambassador Reema Al Saud & received
her condolences," Gaetz tweeted. "I expressed in the strongest possible terms that we expect to conduct our
investigation w full cooperation & no interference from the Kingdom." [Emphasis added.]
Over
300 Saudi military aviation students are grounded in the US in a 'safety stand-down' after the Florida Navy base
shooting. More than 300 Saudi Arabian military aviation students have been grounded as part of a 'safety
stand-down' after a Saudi Air Force lieutenant shot and killed three people last Friday at a US Navy base in Florida.
The FBI has said US investigators believe Saudi Air Force Second Lieutenant Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani, 21, acted alone when
he attacked in Pensacola then was fatally shot by a deputy sheriff who was first to respond. The US Defense Secretary
said he had instructed the armed forces to review both security at military bases and screening for foreign soldiers who come
to the United States for training after the shooting.
The Editor says...
I saw this point raised in the comments section on another web site somewhere: Where was the Shore Patrol during this shooting,
and why did the Navy base have to rely on the county sheriff to bring a gun?
Questions
Remain As To How Pensacola Guman Got [a] Firearm. Last week was a rough one for the Navy. While gearing
up to commemorate the bombing of Pearl Harbor, we had a shooting there in Hawaii. That was then followed up with a
shooting at Naval Air Station Pensacola. The Pensacola attack was more deadly, claiming the lives of three servicemen
there on the base. Now, questions have arisen as to how the gunman, a Saudi national there at the base for training
purposes, got his hands on a firearm in the first place. [...] In other words, while they're decrying loopholes, we still
don't even know how he got his firearm. Did he buy it from a lawful dealer with false identification? Did the
dealer sell it to him illegally? Did he buy it via a face-to-face transfer and tell the other party he was an American
citizen? We simply don't know much of anything. So why do we get these stories? Well, that's because the
purpose of these stories isn't really to inform you of anything.
Nearly
900 Saudi students grounded in naval air stations throughout the USA. The Pentagon has suspended operational
training for all Saudi military students in the United States, indefinitely halting flight instruction, firing range training
and all other operations outside the classroom after the terror attack last week at the Pensacola Naval Air Station, reports
the NY Times. At least one Saudi student filmed the shooting in which 3 soldiers were killed. The shooter held
radical Islamist and anti-U.S. views, but the investigation as to motive is not complete.
Navy
suspends all training for Saudi students in U.S. after Pensacola shooting. The Pentagon on Tuesday suspended
all training of Saudi military officers training in the U.S. as it launched a wide-ranging review Tuesday evening in the wake
of a deadly shooting over the weekend at a base in Pensacola, Florida that claimed the lives of three U.S. sailors. All
operational training of Saudi nationals who are in programs at U.S. military facilities will be halted immediately, and the
review will limit their training to classroom-based only, said a top Pentagon official on a Tuesday evening call with reporters.

Train them at Guantanamo Bay!
Another Nidal
in a Haystack. Information is still coming out about the horrific shooting at a US naval base in Florida in
which Saudi national Mohammed Alshamrani killed three and wounded many others before being shot dead. Early reports
certainly suggest that this was radical Islamic terror, and that if Alshamrani had been properly monitored, multiple red
lights were flashing prior to his killing spree. All of this puts us in mind of the similar case in which Nidal Hassan
shot up Fort Hood... the investigation of which subsequently revealed the number of warnings that had been overlooked.
Authorities
searching for unaccounted Saudi nationals following Pensacola shooting. Several Saudi nationals who had contact
with the gunman who killed three at a Naval base in Florida are still unaccounted for, according to authorities.
Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani, a 21-year-old Saudi national training at Navy Air Station in Pensacola, killed three and wounded
seven during a shooting rampage that is now presumed to be a terrorist attack. Authorities announced that Alshamrani
had visited New York prior to carrying out the attack and had held a dinner party where he showed footage of similar
shootings. The FBI was already questioning six Saudi nationals who were connected to Alshamrani after two were caught
filming the attack. According to a press conference on Saturday, authorities had contacted four more Saudi nationals,
bringing the total to 10.
FBI
says it presumes base shooting was terrorism; gunman was angry at US, Israel. The Saudi gunman who killed three
people at the Pensacola naval base had apparently gone on Twitter shortly before the shooting to blast US support of Israel
and accuse America of being anti-Muslim, a US official said Sunday [12/8/2019] as the FBI confirmed it is operating on the
assumption the attack was an act of terrorism.
Saudi
gunman reportedly called US a 'nation of evil,' decried support of Israel. A Saudi military student reportedly
condemned the US as a "nation of evil" in an online manifesto prior to opening fire Friday at a US naval base, killing three
people before being shot dead by police. The SITE Intelligence Group, which monitors jihadist media, identified him as
Mohammed al-Shamrani, saying he had posted a short manifesto on Twitter that read: "I'm against evil, and America as a
whole has turned into a nation of evil."
Navy
IDs 3 victims of NAS Pensacola shooting; military calls for increased security checks. U.S. Northern Command
(Northcom) has called for increased random security checks at all sites across Northern Command following the deadly
shootings at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam in Hawaii and Naval Air Station (NAS) Pensacola in Florida. The Navy on
Saturday [12/7/2019] identified the three victims of the NAS Pensacola shooting as Ensign Joshua Kaleb Watson, 23, of Coffee,
Ala.; Airman Mohammed Sameh Haitham, 19, of St. Petersburg, Fla.; and Airman Apprentice Cameron Scott Walters, 21, of
Richmond Hill, Ga. "The Sailors that lost their lives in the line of duty showed exceptional heroism and bravery in the
face of evil," said the Navy chief of information in a statement. "When confronted, they didn't run from danger; they
ran towards it and saved lives. If not for their actions, and the actions of the Naval Security Force that were the
first responders on the scene, this incident could have been far worse."
Saudi
Naval base killer exploited loophole to legally purchase handgun he used in shooting — despite ban on non-citizens
buying firearms. The Saudi military student who killed three and injured 12 when he opened fire at Navy Station
Pensacola on Friday used a loophole in the law to purchase the handgun he used in the attack. Mohammed Saeed
al-Shamrani, 21, bought the firearm legally from a store in Pensacola by providing the business owner with his hunting
license, sources told NBC on Saturday [12/7/2019]. Non-citizens are prevented from buying firearms, unless they are in
possession of such a license. The New York Times has reported the handgun as being a Glock 45 9-millimeter with an
extended magazine.
Saudi
shooter held a mass shooting video party, plus an online rant pointing to terrorism. No one was ready to jump
to any conclusions yesterday but the gap between what we suppose and what we know is getting a lot smaller. The AP
reports that shooter Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani held a party to watch mass shooting videos earlier this week. Other
Saudi pilot trainees were at the party: [...] Obviously this raises all sorts of questions, starting with this one:
Were other people in on this plan? My first thought was that obviously the guy filming the building knew what was
coming and was set up to record it for propaganda purposes. That could be the case but it's also possible he heard a
commotion and took out his phone. It's incriminating but not absolutely clear... yet.
FBI
hunt for missing Saudi servicemen as it's revealed Pensacola Naval base killer hosted dinner party to watch mass shooting
videos. US Northern Command, also known as NORTHCOM, sent out an advisory calling for an increase in security
checks on Saturday night, according to Fox News. It comes as the FBI continues to hunt for several Saudi military
students from Pensacola, who have seemingly vanished in the wake of Friday's attack. Fellow Saudi Mohammed Saeed
al-Shamrani, 21, killed three and wounded 12 others at the base before he was shot dead by police. Investigators have
now detained 10 Saudi military students from the base — a number revised up from six — but several others remain
unaccounted for. Authorities have not revealed the number of Saudi students they are still looking for, and they have not stated
whether they are a risk to the public.
Gun-Free
Military Installations Make U.S. Troops Sitting Ducks. The Associated Press reported that the Pensacola gunman
was an aviation student from Saudi Arabia, and NBC News reported that the gunman's name was Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani.
He used a handgun to carry out his attack. Pertinent to news of this horrific firearm-based attack is the fact that
Naval Air Station Pensacola is a gun-free zone. Breitbart News reported the air station's gun-free status shortly after
the attack. [...] In other words, men and women who have signed up for years of service to use advanced weaponry —
including fully automatic weapons, guided missiles, drones with precision striking capability, and numerous other
mechanisms — are forbidden from carrying a handgun on the station for self-defense.
Official:
Pensacola Shooter Was a Saudi Arabian Aviation Student. A U.S. official has identified the shooter at the Naval
Air Station in Pensacola Friday morning as a Saudi Arabian aviation student. Authorities are investigating if the
shooting was terrorism-related. The shooting was the second at a U.S. Navy base this week. Escambia County
Sheriff David Morgan says 11 people were shot in Friday's attack, four of whom died, including the shooter.
Pensacola
Jihad Massacre Proves We've Learned Nothing Since the Fort Hood Attack. Second Lt. Mohammed Saeed
Alshamrani, an aviation officer in the Saudi Air Force, opened fire at the Naval Air Station in Pensacola, Fla., on Friday,
killing four people and wounding many others. In doing so, he showed yet again that the prevailing politically correct
obfuscation and denial regarding the jihad threat is not only wrong, it's dangerous. If we had a realistic approach to
the jihad threat, Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani's victims would be alive today. Before he embarked upon his killing spree,
someone who appeared to be Alshamrani ranted on Twitter about the evils of America. [...] This statement, if it did indeed
come from Alshamrani, as appears likely, makes clear that he was a jihad terrorist. He was killing because of America's
supposed crimes against Muslims; that rules out the alternative explanation for his acts, that he was lashing out after some
negative incident or mistreatment at the Naval Air Station.
Did
someone mention Fort Hood?
Saudi
student watched mass shooting videos during dinner party before Florida naval base attack: report. The Saudi
national who killed three people Friday morning after opening fire in a classroom at a naval air station in Florida
reportedly hosted a dinner party earlier this week where he and several others watched videos of mass shootings, a U.S.
official said Saturday [12/7/2019]. Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani, who was identified as a member of the Saudi military participating
in a flight training program for foreign military personnel at Naval Air Station Pensacola, was killed by law enforcement after he
fatally shot three people in what investigators are trying to determine was an attack motivated by terrorism.
6 Saudi nationals
detained for questioning after NAS Pensacola shooting: official. Six Saudi nationals were detained for
questioning Friday near a naval air station in Pensacola, Fla., after a Saudi gunman opened fire there, killing three people
before being shot dead by officers, a senior U.S. official told Fox News. The FBI, which is leading the investigation
into the shooting — which took place Friday morning at Naval Air Station (NAS) Pensacola in Florida —
declined to reveal the identity of the shooter in the early stages of the investigation, but a U.S. official told Fox News
the gunman was an aviation student from Saudi Arabia named Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani.
Deja
Vu: Pensacola Shooter Was Saudi National in U.S. for 'Flight School'. Four people are dead, including the
assailant, after a shooting at a U.S. Navy base in Pensacola, Fla., on Friday. According to anonymous officials and
Gov. Ron DeSantis, the suspect was a Saudi Arabian national in the U.S. for flight school. That sounds familiar...
Nineteen of the 9/11 hijackers were Saudi Arabian nationals, and most came to the U.S. for flight training. Three
hijacker-pilots, Mohamed Atta, Marwan al-Shehhi, and Ziad Jarrah flew to south Florida for fight training about a year before
the horrific September 11, 2001 attacks.

Saudis are arrested over Pensacola naval base shooting including three who filmed the attack. The Air Force
trainee who killed three and injured eight when he opened fire at a naval base in Florida assailed the United States as 'a
nation of evil' before he went on his shooting rampage, AFP reports. The man, first identified by NBC News as Saudi
national Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani, opened fire inside a classroom at Naval Air Station in Pensacola early Friday
morning. Police quickly responded to the scene and he was shot dead. US officials, who spoke on condition of
anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation, said the suspect was a second lieutenant attending the aviation school at the
base. Meanwhile six other Saudi nationals were arrested near the base shortly after the attack, as investigators began
to probe a terror link.
US official: Pensacola shooting
suspect was Saudi student. U.S. law enforcement officials were digging into the background of the suspected
Florida naval station shooter Friday [12/6/2019], to determine the Saudi Air Force officer's motive and whether it was
connected to terrorism. As questions swirled about the shooting, which left four people dead, including the attacker,
officials identified the suspect as 2nd Lt. Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani, an aviation officer in the Saudi Air Force.
The officials spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation.
The Hague (again!)
November 29, 2019
Three
minors hurt in stabbing in The Hague, police search for suspect. Three people were wounded in a stabbing in The
Hague's main shopping street Friday night, and police were searching for at least one suspect, authorities said. The
three people injured were minors, Dutch police said, without commenting on the severity of their injuries. Police
spokeswoman Marije Kuiper told The Associated Press in a telephone interview that it was still too early to say where a
terror motive was to blame for the attack. Police were "keeping every scenario open," Kuiper said.
The Editor says...
This is exactly what the police would say if they knew the incident was an Islamic terrorists attack but were afraid to say so.
Dutch police arrest
homeless man as suspect in Hague stabbings. Dutch police have arrested a homeless man and brought him in for
questioning, suspecting that he was behind the stabbing of three teens in The Hague, Netherlands, during Black Friday
shopping. Dutch police haven't released the 35-year-old man's identity, and the motive for the stabbing remains
unknown. "We are keeping all scenarios open," a statement from police said.
The Editor says...
Obviously this is a cover-up. Whenever someone goes "insane" and stabs a bunch of random strangers, especially unaccompanied women,
but including anyone within reach, it's all but certain to be the work of an Islamic terrorist. Why? Nobody else acts
like that.
Knifeman
hunted in The Hague after three children wounded in stabbing in main shopping district. Three children were
wounded in a stabbing on a shopping street in The Hague early Friday evening, Dutch police said, adding that they were
seeking a suspect. National broadcaster NOS said the attack could not immediately be attributed to terrorism.
Police launched a manhunt after the attack, which took place on a busy shopping street near the city's historic centre.
The area was cordoned off and dozens of police and ambulances were on the scene.
London (again!)
November 29, 2019
London
Bridge Attack Demonstrates the Defects of Diversity Cult. Over an otherwise peaceful Thanksgiving, the only
news that really stood out was a terrorist knife attack in London. Two people were killed by an Islamic
terrorist. The capstone of the attack was a dramatic and improvised takedown of the terrorist by some locals, who used
a fire extinguisher and ... a narwhal tusk. In the end, police shot and killed the attacker. Of course this is
not London's first brush with Islamic terror. In 2017, a similar stabbing attack occurred at London Bridge, killing a
policeman. Manchester suffered from a bombing attack during an Ariana Grande concert in 2017. In 2013, terrorists
beheaded a British soldier in broad daylight. In 2005, London endured a spate of bombing attacks, in which 52 were killed.
The
London Terrorist Attack Shows Rehabilitative Justice Doesn't Work. The British police force was severely cut
under prime ministers Tony Blair and David Cameron, the British version of the liberal-neocon duopoly who, just like their
American counterparts, believed in the transformative nature of justice. Transform they did, although not criminals and
terrorists. Instead they transformed their countries for worse. The British police force is kneecapped by its own
ruling class, the product of its new woke elite, complete with crackpot theories and activist impulses. The U.K. death
penalty was removed due to the liberal empire. Police patrols were de-sexed — mom and dad duos, as some
Brits call them. Now U.K. police are represented by a middle-aged, overweight, balding man and a plump woman in comical
fluorescent jackets, looking more like road repair workmen than law enforcement officers, standing on street corners looking
bored as they do their daily hours. In police stations, woke officers are more interested in checking mean tweets and
dancing during LGBT parades than in catching criminals.
Deadly Superstitions
in London. Last week, Usman Khan attended a conference at Fishmongers' Hall, a grand location in Central
London, marking the fifth anniversary of a rehabilitative program for prisoners called Learning Together, run by Cambridge
University's Institute of Criminology. Suddenly, Khan, wielding a knife and wearing an imitation suicide-bomber's vest,
went on a rampage, killing a graduate of the Institute who helped run the conference and a volunteer worker at the event,
also a Cambridge graduate, as well as injuring three people. If Khan had not been stopped on London Bridge by others
attending the conference [...] he would have killed others.
Terrorist
in London knife attack had been lecturing woke university leftists all about criminal justice 'reform'.
Friday's London Bridge terror attack by a fanatic Islamist with knives — and not the first one on that
bridge — was a case study in all kinds of things that have gone wrong as blue-city politics and leftist reform
agendas take over. Who let this beast into the country at all? Why, even after one terror attack attempt, was he
let out of the can on parole, with only an ankle bracelet to monitor him? It was obviously a waste of time. Why
was he not booted back to his hellhole of origin, first plane out? Why were the cops, that everyone's supposed to rely
on in lieu of guns, not around? Why did it take bystanders, one "armed" with a whale tusk taken from a decorative
display on a chowhouse wall, and another wielding a fire extinguisher, to knock the beast down? Why don't bystanders in
London have access to guns?
Why
WAS Usman Khan free to kill? Row after terrorist was automatically let out under Labour law. A furious
political row broke out today after it was revealed that the London Bridge terrorist was released automatically from prison
last year. Usman Khan, 28, was sentenced in 2012 after being arrested in 2010 for terrorism offences for his part in an
al Qaeda-inspired terror group that plotted to bomb the London Stock Exchange and kill Boris Johnson. The
Stoke-on-Trent-based radical, along with two co-conspirators, originally received an indeterminate sentence for public
protection with a minimum of eight years behind bars, meaning he could be kept indefinitely if he continued to pose a risk
to the public.
Polish
Chef Used 5 Foot Narwhal Tusk to Help Bring Down London Bridge Terrorist. There is a lot of background
information surfacing about the London Bridge terrorist Usman Khan and the attack he carried out yesterday in the U.K.
However, one of the epic heroes who took down the terrorist is worth a highlight. A Polish chef named Lukasz was
working at Fishmongers Hall near the scene when he saw the terrorist attacking. Lukasz grabbed a 5 foot narwhal
whale tusk from the wall and used it as a makeshift lance while another bystander used a fire extinguisher to confront and
ultimately take down the attacker.
London
Bridge Terrorist Kills Two, Five Wounded — Knife Wielding Jihadist Stopped by Public. Two people
were killed and up to five more stabbed as a terrorist used two knives to attack the public in London, England. The
attack happened near (and on) the London Bridge and the terrorist wore a dummy explosives vest. Members of the general
public tackled and disarmed the terrorist until police arrived moments later and shot him. British authorities have
confirmed the attack was a terrorist incident. London Mayor Sadiq Khan has promised the British people he will write a
strong letter of condemnation.
London
Bridge terrorist Usman Khan was automatically freed after serving seven years. The London Bridge terrorist who
stabbed two people to death in a horrific knife rampage yesterday sent a grovelling letter from prison begging to be sent on
a deradicalisation course during his sentencing for his first terror offences, it has been revealed. Usman Khan, 28,
was jailed in 2012 for his role in an al Qaeda-inspired terror group that plotted to bomb the London Stock Exchange and the
US Embassy and kill Boris Johnson. In an old letter from 2012, unveiled today, the terrorist begged to be shown mercy
and asked for a course to be arranged so that he could 'properly learn Islam and its teachings, and I can prove I don't carry
the extreme views which I might have carried before.'
London
Bridge stabber Usman Khan faked being a reformed jihadist. The London Bridge stabber masqueraded as a reformed
jihadist, claiming his terrorist days were behind him and begging to be de-radicalized. Yet less than a year after
convicted bomb plotter Usman Khan was released from prison, having served only half of a 16-year sentence for his part in an
al Qaeda scheme to blow up London landmarks, he killed two people, including a young coordinator of the rehab program he so
wanted to join. Another staff member of the program, called Learning Together, was killed, and three others were wounded.
TWO
killed in London Bridge terror attack. Two innocent members of the public have died after a knifeman went on a
rampage this afternoon in London. Armed police shot dead a knifeman wearing a fake suicide vest today after he stabbed
up to five people in a shocking terrorist attack as frightened crowds fled the scene. Witnesses on the scene said the
man had been brandishing two knives and had attacked people on the north side of London Bridge before running into the centre
at around 2pm.
London
Bridge suspect had prior 'Islamist terrorism' conviction: report. A man accused of stabbing to death two people
and injuring three more in London has a previous conviction for an "Islamist terrorism-related offense" — and was
wearing an electronic monitoring bracelet when he carried out Friday's attack, according to a report. The
man — who was shot dead after being wrestled to the ground by bystanders in what British police called a
"terrorist incident" — has a criminal history that includes a conviction for that unspecified offense, according
to the Telegraph. The madman, whose name has not yet been released, was sprung from prison about a year ago after
agreeing to electronic monitoring, per the report, which cites anonymous government sources.
London
Bridge stabber belonged to jihadist group that admired Hitler, plotted to bomb US embassy. The knife-wielding
terrorist who was subdued by civilians, then shot dead by police on London Bridge on Friday [11/29/2019] was a paroled bomb
plotter who once hoped to start a jihadist training camp in Kashmir — and whose fellow Islamists admired Hitler
and downplayed the Holocaust. At the time of Friday's attack, Pakistan native Usman Khan, 28, had been free a year
after serving just half of a 16-year sentence for plotting with eight others in 2010 to bomb such London landmarks as the
stock exchange, American embassy, and Westminster Abbey. He was still wearing an electronic monitoring bracelet when he
went berserk with two long knives after speaking about his own "rehabilitation" during a Cambridge University-sponsored
criminal justice conference in London, killing two and injuring three.
The Editor says...
Was he really "berserk," or was he merely acting in accordance with his violent Muslim religion?
Release
of London Bridge terror suspect was 'mistake,' PM Boris Johnson says. Friday's stabbing attack on the London
Bridge that left two people dead and three others wounded had British Prime Minister Boris Johnson arguing afterward that it
had been a "mistake" to grant an early release to the suspect, an ex-convict who was shot and killed by police. Johnson
said he had "long argued" against allowing "serious and violent criminals to come out of prison early." "It is very
important that we get out of that habit and that we enforce the appropriate sentences for dangerous criminals, especially for
terrorists, that I think the public will want to see," Johnson said.
London
Bridge hero used Narwhal tusk to help stop attacker. A hero bystander who was inside a nearby historic hall
when the London Bridge stabbing unfolded Friday ripped a five-foot Narwhal tusk from the wall to help neutralize the
knife-wielding madman, a witness said. The unidentified man can be seen on footage of the stabbing Friday in London
hovering over the suspect with the massive tusk as others attempt to disarm the assailant. Witness Amy Coop tweeted
that she was with the man at Fishmongers Hall when attack occurred shortly before 2 p.m. "A guy who was with us
at Fishmongers Hall took a 5' narwhal tusk from the wall and went out to confront the attacker," she wrote.
Armed
police shoot 'knifeman' on London Bridge as panicked passers-by flee in terror. Armed police shot a man on
London Bridge today [11/29/2019] in an incident that has left one person dead and up to five people injured as Scotland Yard
said they are treating it as 'terror-related'. Dramatic video filmed at the scene around 2pm this afternoon shows at
least four people struggling with a man on the ground before armed police officers step in.
Paris (again!)
October 3, 2019
The Editor says...
Notice a few things about the press coverage of this Islamic terrorist attack:
Did the man say anything, for example, Allahu Akhbar, while he went around stabbing people? Are the police
really baffled about his motives, as they usually pretend to be, or are the prohibited from saying what they know?
News coverage also omits or suppresses the fact that the perpetrator was stopped by someone with a firearm. The incident
took place in a police station, so why wasn't the man shot immediately?
The
Paris Jihadi's Coworkers Knew He Was Dangerous, But Remained Silent. Last week a Muslim employee of the Paris
police, Mickael Harpon, stabbed four of his coworkers to death in the offices where he had worked for years. After
initially issuing the usual claims that Harpon's motive was unclear and that he had no connection to Islamic jihad terror,
French authorities admitted that Harpon had a long track record of arousing suspicion about his jihadi sentiments. But
nothing was done. And the fault of that lies squarely at the feet of the Left. French President Emmanuel Macron
said that it was "inconceivable and unacceptable" that Harpon was able to perpetrate a jihad massacre "in the very place
where we pursue terrorists and criminals." But it wasn't really inconceivable at all, and in modern-day France, after Macron
and his colleagues finish thundering their denunciations, such attacks are unlikely to remain in any genuine sense unacceptable.
"A
Serious Malfunction" - How French Intelligence Overlooked The Terrorist In Their Ranks. It's an alarming
oversight with terrifying implications: The intelligence unit of Paris Police somehow overlooked a radicalized Islamic
convert within their own ranks. Last week, the troubled individual in question carried out an attack inside Paris
Police headquarters that ended with four victims stabbed to death, while the attacker was shot down by his former
colleagues. WSJ has the full the story of how Micka'l Harpon, the 45-year-old attacker in question, evolved from a
quiet IT expert into a disaffected convert to Salafism — a fundamentalist version of Islam that is widely
credited as the inspiration for Al Qaeda and other terror groups.
France's Homegrown
Terrorism. This time, the terrorist did not use firearms; his victims were not unarmed children, cartoonists or
Jews but policemen. [...] The assailant, Micka'l Harpon, born in the French Caribbean island of Martinique, was shot and
killed after stabbing four people to death with a ceramic kitchen knife during the lunchtime assault at the Paris police
headquarters. Harpon, a civilian IT specialist in the intelligence division holding high-level security clearance, had
worked for the police for 16 years. First he killed three men in the intelligence division, then he stabbed two female
police employees in a stairwell (one died from her wounds) before he finally was shot and killed in the building's courtyard.
Harpon was a longtime convert to Islam and a conscientious attendee of his local mosque, where he attended morning and evening
prayers. A radical imam who was nearly expelled from France officiated there.
Macron's
France: Four Police Officers Stabbed to Death in Paris HQ. Four police officers have been stabbed to
death at a headquarters building near the cathedral of Notre-Dame in Paris, France. The perpetrator "was involved in an
argument with someone and then erupted in anger, targeting other police colleagues before being neutralised," according to a
source quoted by The Sun.
IT
worker kills four colleagues in stabbing frenzy at Paris police headquarters. A knife-wielding man working at
police headquarters in central Paris went on a rampage on Thursday, stabbing and killing four employees before himself being
shot dead, officials say. A fifth person who was critically injured was being treated in hospital after what was the
deadliest attack on police in France in years. Paris prosecutor Remy Heitz said that the attacker, a 45-year-old
employee from the IT department in the police intelligence section, had killed three men and a woman before being killed in
the courtyard of the square stone building on the Ile de la Cite. [...] "Did he snap, or was there some other reason?
It's still too early to say," Loic Travers, head of the Alliance Police union for the Paris region, told BFM television.
Paris
knife attacker who killed 4 in police headquarters had converted to Islam: report. The deranged employee who
stabbed four people to death — including three cops — inside a Paris police headquarters had converted
to Islam 18 months ago, according to a report. The 45-year-old deaf IT worker — identified in media reports
as Michael Harpon attacked three members of the police force's intelligence division Thursday inside two ground floor offices,
then went into a stairwell and assaulted two women, French newspaper Le Parisien reported. One of the women survived and
underwent emergency surgery after the attacks. She was listed in critical condition.
Miami, Florida
July 17, 2019
Mechanic
sentenced to 3 years in prison for sabotaging American Airlines jetliner. A veteran airline mechanic was
sentenced Wednesday [3/4/2020] to three years in prison for sabotaging an American Airlines jetliner with 150 people aboard
in a bid to earn overtime fixing the plane. In sentencing 60-year-old Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani, U.S. District
Judge Marcia Cooke said she found no evidence to support allegations that Alani had links to the Islamic State extremist
group or any terrorist organization.
The Editor says...
Earlier reports said "the guy had ISIS video on his cell phone." (See below.)
Yet the judge "found no evidence" to link him to a terrorist organization.
American Airlines mechanic
pleads guilty to sabotaging plane at Miami International. An American Airlines mechanic accused of sabotaging a
navigation system on a Miami flight with 150 passengers aboard pleaded guilty Wednesday [12/18/2019] to attempting to destroy the aircraft
in a plea agreement designed to avoid a maximum sentence up to 20 years in prison. "I do admit the guilt," Abdul-Majeed
Marouf Ahmed Alani, 60, said through an Arabic interpreter in Miami federal court.
American
Airlines mechanic pleads guilty to sabotaging plane in Miami: reports. A California mechanic who worked for
American Airlines for more than 30 years has pleaded guilty to tampering with an aircraft in a deal to avoid a maximum
sentence of 20 years in prison, according to reports. Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani, 60, admitted using a piece of
foam to sabotage the plane's air module system — which reports aircraft speed, pitch, and other flight data to
pilots — on a July 17 flight from Miami to the Bahamas with 150 passengers aboard the aircraft. "I do admit
the guilt," he said through an Arabic interpreter in Miami federal court Wednesday [12/18/2019], according to the Miami Herald.
Mechanic
Accused of Sabotaging American Airlines Jetliner Has Ties to ISIS. The mechanic accused of sabotaging an
American Airlines jetliner back in July was found to have had violent Islamic State videos on his cellphone, as well as
desire for Allah to hurt non-Muslims, new evidence unveiled at his bail hearing revealed on Wednesday [9/18/2019].
Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani, according to prosecutors, has ties to ISIS through his brother in Iraq. The
60-year-old Alani was charged earlier this month with willfully damaging or disabling a plane. The Boeing 737, which
had 150 passengers and crew aboard, did not take off and no one was injured.
An
ISIS aircraft mechanic caught trying to disable the same system that brought down two other 737s? They're still
out there. And it was quite disturbing to learn that, contrary to what the press had so smarmily assured us about a
supposedly disgruntled aircraft mechanic who got caught trying to disable a Boeing 737, the guy had ISIS video on his cell
phone. [...] Up until now, the press had been assuring us that the whole thing was a labor issue, citing officials.
Airline
Mechanic Accused of Sabotaging Plane Had ISIS Video on His Phone. [Scroll down] One thing doesn't
necessarily have anything to do with the other. Yeah, this guy sabotaged a plane. And, also, in addition to but
unrelated to that, he also had ISIS propaganda on his phone. Apples and oranges. Oh, and Alani's phone also had a
news story about a plane crash in Indonesia last year, with specific information about the plane's airspeed control
system. The same thing he was caught tampering with. But whatever. It seems much more likely that this guy
tried to bring down an airliner so he could get more overtime. That sounds about right. Right?
Some
Guy Did Something — Judge Denies Bail for Sketchy Airline Mechanic Caught Tampering With GPS. After
disclosing his prayers of death for the infidels; and after telling investigators he was acting on behalf of his "evil side";
and after finding out his brother is a member of ISIS in Iraq; and after finding pro-ISIS propaganda videos on his cell phone
celebrating ISIS mass murders, which he shared with friends and family; well, U.S. justice officials and the FBI now suspect
a more "disturbing" motive behind airline employee Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani who was caught tampering with the
American Airline GPS system.
Another
Job Americans Just Won't Do: Sabotaging American Airlines Jets. I mentioned about ten days ago in "Time
for a National Immigration Safety Board" the case of the Iraqi mechanic in Miami who sabotaged an American Airlines
jetliner. At the time it was said to be Totally Not Terrorism. Instead, he was just trying to get some overtime
hours by creating a problem he would need to fix. Now, the NY Post is reporting that this guy may have had mixed
motivations: [...]
Mechanic
who tampered with jetliner has ties to ISIS: feds. The American Airlines mechanic who disabled a key navigation
system on a jetliner leaving Miami — saying he did it over a labor dispute — had grisly ISIS propaganda
videos on his cellphone, federal prosecutors said in court on Wednesday [9/18/2019]. Prosecutor Maria Medetis said that
when investigators grilled the mechanic, Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani, after his arrest on Sept. 5, he told them he had an
"evil side" and that he "wanted to do something to delay" the plane, which had 150 people onboard, the Miami Herald
reported. But a co-worker told investigators that Alani had once said his brother was a member of ISIS, and that he
traveled to Iraq in March to visit him.
The Editor says...
Why oh why, in the aftermath of the Islamic terrorist attacks of 9/11/2001, do airline passengers have to undergo meticulous screening
before boarding an airplane, and yet the airline has no problem hiring a guy named Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani to maintain the
airplanes? Isn't that a position that requires an extensive background check?
ISIS
video found on phone of airline mechanic accused of sabotaging airplane in Miami. An American Airlines mechanic
accused of sabotaging an airplane in Miami this July reportedly had Islamic State-sponsored video content on his personal
phone. Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani was accused earlier this month of inserting an object into the navigational
system of the airplane that would tamper with airspeed readings. The plane detected the mechanical error shortly before
taking off from Miami to the Bahamas and was promptly taken out of service, forcing 150 passengers to deplane and seek out
other methods of travel.
American Airlines
mechanic shared 'disturbing' ISIS videos, told agents he had 'evil side,' prosecutors say. An American Airlines
mechanic accused of sabotaging a plane in July reportedly told arresting agents he had an "evil side," a nefarious persona
prosecutors sought to expose Wednesday as they presented alleged evidence of his Islamist sympathies — and
aspirations — at a bail hearing in Miami. Prosecutors said Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani allegedly
displayed support for ISIS by making statements about wishing Allah would use "divine powers" to harm non-Muslims and sharing
ISIS videos on his cellphone — which he allowed the FBI to search. One of the videos showed a person being
shot in the head, according to prosecutors.
American
Airlines Mechanic Accused of Sabotaging Flight Came to U.S. from Iraq. An American Airlines mechanic who is
accused of sabotaging a commercial flight originally arrived in the United States from Iraq, Breitbart News has confirmed.
On Friday [9/6/2019], federal court records revealed that Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani allegedly tampered with a navigation
system on a plane filled with 150 passengers set to take off from Miami, Florida and bound for Nassau, the Bahamas on July 17[.]
American
Airlines Mechanic Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani Charged with Sabotaging Plane. American Airlines mechanic
Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani was arrested Thursday [9/5/2019] after sabotaging the navigation system of a flight to Nassau
with 150 passengers on board. Alani admitted on Thursday that he tampered with the controls of the flight.
American Airlines mechanic
in Miami charged with sabotaging plane. An American Airlines mechanic was arrested Thursday [9/5/2019] on a sabotage
charge accusing him of disabling a navigation system on a flight with 150 people aboard before it was scheduled to take off
from Miami International Airport earlier this summer. The reason, according to a criminal complaint affidavit filed in
Miami federal court: Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani, a veteran employee, was upset over stalled union contract
negotiations. None of the passengers and crew on the flight to Nassau were injured because the tampering with the
so-called air data module caused an error alert as the pilots powered up the plane's engines on the runway July 17,
according to a criminal complaint affidavit filed in Miami federal court.
The Editor says...
Yeah, right. He may claim now that he was all "upset over stalled union contract negotiations," but if the plane had crashed, you
can bet that he would be bragging — from another country — about all the virgins waiting for him at Allah's house.
Villeurbanne (Lyon), France
August 31, 2019
1
Killed, 9 Injured in France Knife Rampage; Authorities Say Attack 'Does Not Appear to Be Terror Related'.
According to the Associated Press, "The reason for the attack was unclear." However, an official told the AP that the
attack did not appear to be terrorism-related. [...] Raise your hand if you think there's a high probability this attack was
terror-inspired. There have been several high-profile jihad-inspired knife attacks in France in recent years, via The
Straits Times: [List of terrorist attacks] Since the 2015 Charlie Hebdo attack, more than 200 people have been
killed by jihadists in France.
The Editor says...
For the Associated Press to state that "The reason for the attack was unclear," the reporters and
editors of the Associated Press have to be willfully blind, incompetent, stupid, or willingly protecting Muslim
terrorists by discounting any possible connection to Islamic terrorism.
Update:
Rough automatic translation:
Attack
with a knife in Villeurbanne: a witness evokes a religious motivation. According to a direct witness of the
aggression heard by Le Progrès, the suspect reportedly made a religious reference at the time of the
events: "They do not read the Koran". [...] Gérard Collomb, mayor of Lyon, went on the spot, while he went to
the football match, opposing Lyon and Bordeaux. "For the moment, we do not know anything about his motives, he notes,
moved. What is certain is that it was not a fight, since it was someone who attacked passengers waiting for a bus
undifferentiated."
Lyon
jihadi explains why he went on knife rampage: "They do not read the Qur'an". Authorities are searching
for a motive, at least at this point refusing to acknowledge what is right in front of their faces.
French
prosecutor: Knife attack suspect in 'psychotic state'. An Afghan man was in a "psychotic state" and on
drugs during a stabbing in France that killed one person and injured eight others, but investigators haven't found any
terrorist ties, a regional prosecutor said Sunday [9/1/2019].
Knife
attack in Lyon leaves one dead and nine injured. One person was stabbed to death and nine others injured by a
knifeman outside a station near the French city of Lyon, before police managed to detain him. Authorities said the
reason for the attack was unclear. The attacker was a 33-year-old Afghan citizen who had applied for asylum in France
and was awaiting a response, according to a national police official. The attacker provided contradictory information
to police, but the attack did not appear to be terrorism-related, two French officials told The Associated Press.
The Editor says...
Let's review: A Muslim from Afghanistan pulls out a knife and starts attacking people at random. Most likely he
was shouting praises to Allah while he did so, but the press won't mention it. The police captured him, but they can't
figure out what possible motive he had, even though dozens of others have done the same thing, in the name of Islam.
Then the suspect lied to the police. Then the police confidently pronounce that there's no connection to terrorism.
Tune in again next week for a repeat of this event, after which the police will be even more adamant when they declare, "no
connection to terrorism," while they are "searching for a motive."
Sri Lanka
April 21, 2019
ISIS
Caliph: Sri Lanka Bombings Revenge for Caliphate, Not New Zealand. Jihadists don't need a reason to kill
anyone. Their revenge and retaliation claims are a psychological game to make us feel as if we are responsible for
their violence against us. After a mass shooting at a mosque in New Zealand, some people worried that revenge attacks
would follow. And indeed, the Sri Lanka bombings of churches seemed to follow that pattern. Soon the media was
full of claims that ISIS had murdered hundreds of Christians as revenge for the New Zealand shootings. [...] Like everything
coming out of the Sri Lankan government, this should have been taken with a grain of salt. It's not just the Jihadists
who want to shift responsibility for the violence on to us. The Sri Lankan government ignored warnings about the attack.
It's convenient for them to shift the blame.
Aloha
Snackbar: Getting Serious About the Ideological War on Terror. The Easter Day bombings of Sri Lankan
churches, which killed about 250 Christian worshippers, were claimed by ISIS as one of their attacks in a video reported by
Asia Times. Regardless of whether ISIS's claim is true, it has seized the murderous success of those attacks as an
ideological weapon to prove its continued existence. [...] We can capture and kill terrorists endlessly but we cannot seem to
deter more from joining their murderous ranks.
Extremists in Sri
Lanka Add 15 More to the Country's Death Toll. Extremists connected to the Easter suicide bombings at churches
and hotels in Sri Lanka killed 15 people after opening fire and detonating explosives Friday night [4/26/2019] when
police raided a home in the eastern part of the country, authorities said. Six of the dead were children, reported The
Associated Press. The additional violence comes after a group of attackers targeted six hotels and churches and killed
roughly 250 people, many of whom were Christians celebrating Easter. Original reports put the death toll
over 300 but it has since been revised down, reported BBC.
Sri
Lankan forces discover over a dozen bodies, including children, at ISIS safe house. As Sri Lankan security
forces raided an ISIS safe house late Friday [4/16/2019] into Saturday morning, militants open fired and detonated at least
three suicide bombs, killing 15 people, including six children. The dead were found charred, others had their
clothes burned off of their bodies. Police tipped off soldiers about a suspected safe house in the town of Sammanthurai
as part of a widespread search operation for militants with explosives believed to still be at large after the coordinated
bombings of churches and luxury hotels that killed more than 250 nearly a week ago.
Sri
Lanka suicide bomber was previously arrested and then released. One of the Sri Lanka suicide bombers was
previously arrested by police and then released, a senior government official told CNN Thursday [4/25/2109]. Ilham
Ahmed Ibrahim — one of two sons of a spice tycoon who blew themselves up in Sunday's attacks —
detonated a device at the Cinnamon Grand hotel in Colombo, the official told CNN.
Islamic
Terrorism Remains the World's Greatest Threat to Peace. [T]he coordinated bomb blasts aimed at Christian
worshipers on Easter Sunday, which killed at least 290 people and injured hundreds more, demonstrates the kind of meticulous
planning, funding, resources and support that is still exclusively the domain of radical Islamic terrorism. It's not
merely that the act was planned to maximize the death toll, but that it is a continuation of long-standing efforts by
Islamists to destroy the Christian communities left in Asia. Those who kill in the name of Islam are part of a
worldwide, historic, ideological and political movement that includes, to various degrees and various reasons, radicalized
men and women from both great factions of the faith. Then again, terrorist groups — as well as their
recruitment and propaganda outfits — are often functioning in Islamic regimes, which either actively sustain
terror, tolerate these groups or pay them off to engage in terrorism elsewhere.
It's amazing how so many people misunderstand Islam in exactly the same way.
Sri
Lankan police hunt 140 people after Easter bombings. Sri Lankan police are trying to track down 140 people
believed linked to Islamic State, which claimed responsibility for the Easter Sunday suicide bombings that killed 253, as
shooting erupted in the east during a raid.
Pregnant
wife of Sri Lankan suicide bomber detonates bomb as police raid home. With Sri Lanka already reeling from a
series of coordinated bombings, the horror continued Sunday afternoon as police raided the home of Inshaf Ahmed Ibrahim and
Ilham Ibrahim, two of the suspected leaders of the plot that killed 359 people. As police entered the residence, the
wife of one of the brothers, Fatima Ibrahim, detonated yet another bomb, killing herself, the child she was pregnant with,
three other young children and three Sri Lankan police officers.
It's
all about hate and bloodlust that's never sated. At least two of the suicide bombers had law degrees. Two
were brothers from a wealthy Colombo family, one of whom attended university in the United Kingdom and earned a postgraduate
degree in Australia. There were nine of them altogether, eight men and a woman. Most were "well-educated and come
from (the) middle or upper-middle class," Ruwan Wijewardene, Sri Lanka's deputy defence minister, told reporters. There
is still much to piece together from what happened on Easter Sunday in Sri Lanka, about why the authorities did not respond
to specific and actionable intelligence about an imminent jihadist attack, how it could be that clear warnings to and from
Sri Lanka's deputy inspector general went unheeded, and what were the names, even, of the terrorists.
Sri
Lanka's cardinal calls terrorists 'animals' and says 'punish them mercilessly'. It's not every day that you see
a churchman with a spine. The normal response in these days is anodyne pro forma deplorings, along with peace
and flowers offerings to the supporters of radical Islamism, or lots and lots of cover-ups and denials about what the attacks
were really about, so as not to offend the perpetrators. [...] The Sri Lankan archbishop obviously has gotten tired of the
niceties as more than one of the churches he shepherds mops off the blood from the walls. He indicates he knows what
the story here is — that Christianity is under fire, attacks on Christian worldwide have doubled since 2017, and
converts to Catholicism (and other Christian faiths) are being mowed down mercilessly in their churches, that he is a
shepherd, that good shepherds (as Jesus said) care about their flock, and hideous Islamist predators who are
perpetrating this have adopted evil as their religion. Churches, good, Islamist terrorists, bad; this is not rocket
science. Yet in our enervated age, statements like these draw headlines.
Two
Sri Lanka bombers were sons of Colombo spice tycoon, sources say. Two of the suicide bombers involved in the
Easter Sunday attacks in Sri Lanka were members of a prominent and wealthy family in Colombo, sources have told CNN, in a
development that has rocked the small Muslim community in the city. The brothers, Imsath Ahmed Ibrahim and Ilham Ahmed
Ibrahim, were among the band of extremists who blew themselves up in Sunday's attacks, two sources with knowledge of the
investigation said. Their father, Mohamed Ibrahim, is the founder of Colombo-based Ishana Exports, which describes
itself on its website as the "largest exporter of spices from Sri Lanka since 2006."
Orwellian
WaPo Slams the 'Far-Right' for Saying Christians Were Under Attack in Sri Lanka. In the wake of the horrific
Easter terrorist attack against churches in Sri Lanka, The Washington Post published an article slamming "far-right"
political leaders for saying that Christians are under attack. The Orwellian article suggested there was something
untoward about reporting on global Christian persecution — by selectively quoting far-right European and American
leaders on the issue and ignoring the broader discussion. The bombings, which claimed the lives of at least 321 people
and wounded more than 500 others, took place on the most important holiday for Christianity, the day Christians remember the
Resurrection of Jesus. They targeted Christian churches, and according to Sri Lanka's defense minister, a radical
Islamist terror group carried the attacks out in "retribution" for the Christchurch mosque shootings last month.
Taqiyya for Easter.
Let's say a fire breaks out at Notre Dame cathedral in Paris at the start of Holy Week, and just after two of the city's
other most prominent houses of worship — St Sulpice and the Basilica of St Denis — have been attacked
and vandalized. Well, I think we can all confidently say as the first flames are beginning to lick the ceiling that
it's undoubtedly an accident. Cigarette butt. Or maybe computer glitch. Probably just an overheated smart
phone. We don't need to get in there and sift through the debris. We can just announce it. On the other hand,
when there are coordinated attacks on Easter services at several churches in Sri Lanka, it becomes a little more
challenging to pass off multiple suicide-bombings killing nearly three hundred people as an electrical malfunction.
So, in contrast to the confident declarations of a week ago, on Sunday morning the media opted for a subtler narrative.
Sri
Lanka: Bombings were 'retaliation' for New Zealand mosque attack. The terror attacks that killed at least
321 people in Sri Lanka were "retaliation" for the mosque shootings in New Zealand, officials said Tuesday [4/23/2019].
"The initial investigation has revealed that this was in retaliation for the New Zealand mosque attack," junior minister for
defense Ruwan Wijewardene insisted to parliament there.
Sri
Lanka terror vindicates Pompeo-Trump warnings. It was only a few weeks ago that much of the mainstream media
was criticizing the Trump administration for the "Christianization" of US foreign policy. Secretary of State Mike
Pompeo's evangelical faith was widely blamed for the increased focus of American diplomacy on combating the persecution of
Christians at the hands of Muslim governments or Islamist terrorists, as well as for its support for Israel. The
administration's interest in the subject — especially in contrast to the policies of the Obama administration —
was denounced as a political payoff to Trump's Christian conservative voters and an insult to the Muslim world. Such
attention fueled, we were told, Islamophobia in the United States and elsewhere.
Radical
Muslim Group Suspected in Easter Sunday Bombings in Sri Lanka. Earlier this month, intelligence agencies
reported a radical Islamic group called National Thowheeth Jama'ath was planning attacks in Sri Lanka, and apparently they
decided to strike on Easter morning.
The
Sri Lanka Jihad Massacre and the Decline of the West. Well over two hundred people are dead, and hundreds more
injured, in jihad massacres in churches and hotels in Sri Lanka on Easter Sunday morning, and now the usual denial and
obfuscation are in full swing. I'm often asked, when I speak around the country, what it will take to wake people up to
the nature and gravity of the jihad threat. For all too many people, the answer, as the Sri Lanka attacks abundantly
show, is nothing. The facts were clear enough, at least if one checked the Indian media. India's News18.com
reported that "two of the six attacks that rocked Sri Lanka this morning are reportedly to be have been carried out by
suicide bombers," that telltale sign that this was a jihad attack, with the bombers hoping to claim the Qur'an's promise of
Paradise for those who "kill and are killed" for Allah (9:111).
The
Leftists & Their Media Enablers Again Controlling The Narrative On Islam. Once again, the "American" Left along
with their media enablers are using language to control the narrative. As my buddy Streiff points out here, the
leftists are so hostile to Christians that they refuse to use the term in their description of the attacks in Sri
Lanka. In this case, instead of "Christians," they use "Easter Worshippers," to describe the over 200 dead and [unknown
numbers of] wounded in the brutal massacre and, as of this morning, several still missing. And yes, "American," is in
quotes, as I often wonder about some of the folks on the left and, with good reason, question their patriotism.
Katie
Pavlich's Response To Washington Post's Preposterous Analysis Of Sri Lankan Bombings. [Scroll down]
First, outrage over the persecution of Christians is not confined to the far-right. Many conservatives condemned the
attacks and likely many independents as well. But the $64 million question is, shouldn't the left be as outraged as the
right? The death toll from Sunday's bombing has climbed to 290 and there are over 500 injured. Why has the response
from the left been so restrained in comparison to the outpouring of love and support following the murder of 50 Muslims in
New Zealand?
New Zealand
and Sri Lanka Were Not the Same. The seemingly unlimited supply of virtue-signalers who dominate our culture
have assured us emphatically the recent terror attacks in New Zealand and Sri Lanka are equivalent, a kind of quid pro quod
between races and religions. Other than the fact that, tragically, a great many people died in both — more
in Sri Lanka, but the numbers are horrific enough in NZ — this is utter nonsense. They couldn't be more
different. New Zealand was the act of one aberrant or evil (call him either or both) racist individual motivated by
rage against immigrants — Muslim "invaders" — he thought were ruining his country. Sri Lanka was
a planned attack on multiple targets by a local militant group, likely with the aid of a yet larger group or groups (possibly
ISIS) from outside the country, acting under the dicta of a highly-evolved ideology euphemistically referred to as
fundamentalist Islam or Islamism.
'Easter worshippers'?
Christians are the world's most persecuted minority worldwide, according to Dennis Prager, and the monstrous terror attack in
Sri Lanka during Easter Sunday morning masses by Muslim terrorists was a perfect illustration of this increasingly hideous
trend. On the Left, that's less horrifying than it is embarrassing. They don't like Christians to start with, and
they've since gone a long way to coddle Muslim extremists, too. [...] For them to have to admit that Christians are being
specially singled out for killings by Muslim terrorists is a bridge too far for these establishment Democrats who thrive on
Muslims being the 'real victims' in whatever 'something' that 'some people did' and might force them to admit they were wrong
all along about the religiously motivated warfare of the Islamist terrorists.
Father
of American boy killed in Sri Lanka speaks out. The grief-stricken father of the young Washington, DC, boy
killed in Sri Lanka's Easter Sunday bombings broke his silence on Monday, saying the terrorists who murdered his son have no
idea what they took away from the world. "The terrorists didn't know who they were killing. But we should know
what the world lost, what they took from the world," grieving father Alex Arrow told ABC News of his 11-year-old son, Kieran
Shafritz de Zoysa. "A brilliant mind who — who was going to be a neuroscientist and — he won't
make it to his 12th birthday."
Sri
Lanka Attacks: Death Toll Soars as Police Identify Seven Suicide Bombers. Sri Lanka police investigators
said Monday [4/22/2019] the coordinated Easter Sunday attacks that targeted Christians and luxury hotel guests were the work
of seven suicide bombers. The bombings, Sri Lanka's deadliest violence since a devastating civil war ended a decade ago
on the island nation, killed at least 290 people with more than 500 wounded, police spokesman Ruwan Gunasekara said.
Twenty-four arrests have been made but no single group has claimed responsibility for the terror acts, the Sri Lanka Daily
Mirror reports.
Islamic
Terrorism Remains the World's Greatest Threat to Peace. After the horrific mass murder of 50 Muslim worshippers
in Christchurch, New Zealand, there was widespread coverage and a torrent of mainstream news networks contemplating the
threat of white supremacy. These conversations, completely reasonable and necessary in the face of violent attacks from
a racist gunman, soon began deteriorating into politically motivated and specious claims contending that "white supremacy"
had become the predominate terror threat in the world. Well, the coordinated bomb blasts aimed at Christian worshippers
on Easter Sunday, which killed at least 290 people and injured hundreds more, demonstrates the kind of meticulous planning,
funding, resources, and support that is still exclusively the domain of radical Islamic terrorism. It's not merely that
the act was planned to maximize the death toll, but that it is a continuation of long-standing efforts by Islamists to
destroy the Christian communities left in Asia.
Easter
Sunday Sri Lanka bomb attacks left 207 dead. Sri Lankan authorities fear a little-known Islamist group with
links to international terrorists is behind the devastating suicide bombings that killed 290 people in coordinated attacks on
churches and hotels. Seven suicide bombers launched coordinated attacks on churches and five-star hotels and killed at
least 290 people and saw around 500 injured. The Sri Lankan government are pointing the blame at National Thowheed Jamaath
(NTJ), an extremist Muslim group, and say they received an intelligence warning the attacks would happen ten days before.
Suicide
bombers kill more than 207 people and hurt 500 in 'targeted attack on Christians' on Easter Sunday in Sri Lanka.
A bomb was found and safely destroyed at Sri Lanka's main airport this evening just hours after co-ordinated attacks killed
207 people in explosions at churches and five-star hotels on Easter Sunday. Eight blasts ripped through landmarks
around the capital Colombo, and on Sri Lanka's east coast, targeting Christians, hotel guests and foreign tourists. More
than 450 people were wounded and five British citizens were among the dead.
Sri
Lanka Bomber Stood at Hotel Buffet then Unleashed Terror. The suicide bomber waited patiently in a queue for
the Easter Sunday breakfast buffet at Sri Lanka's Cinnamon Grand hotel before setting off explosives strapped to his back.
[...] Two other hotels, the Shangri-La and the Kingsbury, were hit at about the same time, along with three churches packed
with worshippers attending Easter Sunday services.
Blasts
rock 3 churches, 3 hotels in Sri Lanka; multiple fatalities reported. Six nearly simultaneous explosions struck
three churches and three high-end hotels frequented by tourists on Easter Sunday in Sri Lanka, killing nearly 200 people and
injuring many more, according to police and hospital sources. Multiple fatalities — including 11 foreigners —
resulted among worshipers and hotel guests, a police official said, adding that at least two of the church blasts were believed to have
been a coordinated attack carried out by suicide bombers.
US
State Department warns of possibility of more attacks in Sri Lanka. The U.S. State Department on Sunday issued
a revised warning on travel to Sri Lanka and said terror groups are continuing to plot and possibly carry out new attacks in
hotels and churches. On Easter Sunday [4/21/2019], a series of bombs exploded at churches and luxury hotels in the
country, killing nearly 300. It was the deadliest series of attacks the South Asian island country had seen since a bloody
civil war there ended a decade ago. Most of the attacks occurred in or around Colombo, the capital. The U.S. said
"several" Americans were among the dead.
Paris
April 15, 2019
French
officials announce results of preliminary investigation into Notre Dame fire. The Paris prosecutor's office
said that the results of a preliminary investigation into the fire that gutted parts of the famed Notre Dame cathedral showed
no proof of criminal activity. In the Wednesday [6/26/2019] announcement officials didn't cite a specific cause, but
listed a number of hypotheses, including a malfunctioning electrical system or an errant smoldering cigarette. Although
they said there was no indication the blaze was intentional, the possibility of negligence was not ruled out.
Investigators give first
findings on historic Notre Dame fire. A discarded cigarette, still alive with smoldering tobacco, is one of the
most likely causes of the historic fire that saddened millions around the world and destroyed large parts of the historic
Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. In a preliminary report Wednesday [6/26/2019], investigators say they found no evidence
of arson after weeks of interviewing 100 witnesses and sifting through tons of blackened debris and some 1,200 possible
clues. A judicial inquiry will continue the probe.
Islamic
Minaret Should Replace Notre Dame Spire, Says Architecture Expert. An architecture expert has called for Notre
Dame's fallen spire to be replaced with an Islamic minaret as an apology to Algerian Muslims killed by French police.
Should Notre
Dame include a mosque? French President Emmanuel Macron declared that the historic Catholic church should be
rebuilt "consistent with our modern, diverse nation." Architects — a profession devoted to foisting buildings
that constitute a form onto a public that wishes their form would honestly follow their function — knew what
Macron meant. They promptly suggested adding an Islamic minaret. Presumably this political correctness will also
dictate elements of Protestantism (which, as a Protestant, I suppose I should welcome but don't), Judaism, Hinduism, paganism
and — why not? — Satan worship. This isn't because the establishment likes Protestantism,
Judaism, Hinduism, paganism or Satan, mind you. It's because they hate Catholicism. [... But] their hatred of Catholicism
is simply because they hate real religion and, despite some shortcomings, Catholicism is a real religion. The reason
they hate real religion is that it threatens their personal religion of secular socialism.
The
Burning of Notre Dame and the Destruction of Christian Europe. Barely an hour after the flames began to rise
above Notre Dame — at a time when no explanation could be provided by anyone — the French authorities
rushed to say that the fire was an "accident" and that "arson has been ruled out." The remarks sounded like all the official
statements made by the French government after attacks in France during the last decade. The Notre Dame fire also
occurred at a time when attacks against churches in France and Europe have been multiplying. More than 800 churches
were attacked in France during the year 2018 alone. Churches in France are empty. The number of priests is
decreasing and the priests that are active in France are either very old or come from Africa or Latin America. The
dominant religion in France is now Islam.
The
Notre Dame fire: Conclusions enforced before the evidence was examined. The recent fire in Notre Dame
Cathedral has highlighted the attempts of the powerful to control the news. The Paris prosecutor, Rémy Heitz,
has decided the fire was "likely accident, not arson." [...] There it is: the orthodox truth. If you don't accept the
"orthodox" story, you are a "conspiracy theorist," an Islamophobe, and a racist. Deviance from the orthodox view must
be silenced. Fox News's Shepard Smith invited the French media analyst Philippe Karsenty for an eyewitness interview
while the fire was still raging. Karsenty said, "Of course you will hear the political correctness, that it's probably
an accident, but..." Before he could finish, Smith interrupted: "Sir, sir, sir, we're not going to speculate here of
the cause of something that we don't know." Karsenty continued: "I'm just telling you, you need to be ready..."
Smith cut him off: "No, sir. We're not doing that here. Not now. Not on my watch! Philippe
Karsenty, it's very good of you to be here." Fox's Neil Cavuto had a similar experience in his interview with William Donohue,
president of the Catholic League. Donohue was skeptical about the accident claim. He commented, "Forgive me for being
suspicious. Just last month, a 17th-century church was set on fire in Paris. We've seen tabernacles knocked down,
crosses have been torn down, statues." Cavuto responded, "We don't know that. So if we can avoid what your suspicions
might be." Dohohue then stated, "When I find out that the Eucharist is being destroyed and excrement is being smeared on
crosses..." At that point, Cavuto decided to terminate the interview: [...]
Modern
Architects Want Notre Dame Rebuilt with Glass Spire or Islamic Minaret. Modern architects are making plans for
the new and updated Notre Dame Catholic Cathedral in Paris, France. Proposed plans include a giant glass spire to
signify secularism or an Islamic minaret. This is the modern day left.
The Editor says...
If the Notre Dame fire was started by Muslim terrorists, why not just eliminate the gradual intermediate steps and
make a mosque out of it?
The
Notre Dame Fire: Our Fault, Our Most Grievous Fault. Buildings like Notre Dame do not erupt into flames
spontaneously. That's not how God works, even to punish a civilization as deep in moral ruin as ours. My suspicions,
and those of almost everyone I know, are hardly calmed when we see Fox News — yes, even Fox — repeatedly refusing
to host an honest discussion of the possibility, even as experts tell French TV that eight hundred year old timber simply
doesn't burn that way without an accelerant. I mean, it's not as though news networks restrain their hosts from wild
speculation during other crises. So, understandably, the first reaction from anyone who has been reading the news
lately was: "Muslims, right?" Alas, even Right-wing newsreaders are terrified of saying the wrong thing when the
perp might be a member of the Religion of Peace. Attacks on Christian churches in Europe have become so numerous that
even Newsweek has had to admit it — though the magazine hilariously claims that no one knows why these attacks are
happening, and the words "Islam" and "Muslim" are nowhere to be found in its reporting.
What
Really Caused the Notre Dame Cathedral Fire? Following the horrifying fire that badly damaged one of the
world's great treasures, the mainstream media is pushing the storyline that the fire that ravaged the Notre Dame Cathedral in
Paris was caused by an "electrical short circuit." But the story in the Daily Mail lacks any evidence to back up that
claim. [...] "Investigators" brought in to determine the cause of the tragic blaze have not yet been given access to the burned-out
cathedral. Nevertheless they are already announcing the results of their investigation. Even as the embers were still
glowing on the day of the fire, French prosecutors were ruling out arson.
ISIS
fanatics warn of a future attack on fire-ravaged Notre Dame in online poster depicting the cathedral up in flames once
more. Jihadists linked to ISIS have shared a menacing image of Notre Dame in flames once more, warning: 'Wait
for the next'. The extremist media group published the graphic showing flames in front of the Paris cathedral's bell
towers, which survived Monday's blaze. There is no indication that the fire was linked to terror but ISIS fanatics have
revelled in the damage to the 850-year-old landmark, a symbol of Western civilisation, just days before Easter. The
latest image, revealed by terror monitors SITE intelligence, hints at a possible deliberate attack by ISIS-aligned militants
in the future.
10
Catholic Churches Attacked in France in One Week. At least 10 incidents of vandalism and desecration of
Catholic churches have been reported across the Channel since the beginning of February. French Roman-Catholic newspaper
La Croix International reported how the attacks on churches took place across France. Senseless acts included the
desecration of altars, the defacing of Christ on the cross and in an extreme case, human excrement being spread across the
walls of a holy place of worship.
The
Internet Erupts With Speculation About Who Started The Notre Dame Fire. Ever careful to watch for false-flags
and conspiracy theory concerns, video is emerging of a Gilets-Jaunes in black clothes at one of the two towers half an hour
after the start of the fire at Notre-Dame. [Video clip] One definite way to disenfranchise the yellow vests — as
they crush French autocracy — would be to set them up as the fall-guys for this national disaster. Surely that is not possible!
[...] In the end, there are only two options. Either this was an accident, or someone intentionally started the fire. And if the
fire was intentionally started, obviously someone had a motive for doing so.
ISIS
fanatics revel in Notre Dame's destruction. ISIS fanatics are heartlessly revelling in the inferno at Notre Dame
Cathedral just days before Easter calling it 'retribution and punishment', according to terror intelligence researchers.
A poster of the blazing cathedral appeared online accompanied by the words, 'Have a good day,' and was created by the ISIS
affiliated Al-Muntasir group according to the Terrorism Research & Analysis Consortium. The poster says: 'Its
construction began in the year 1163 and ended in 1345. It's time to say goodbye to your oratory polytheism.' The
jihadists referred to the catastrophe as 'retribution and punishment,' SITE intelligence reported.
Utrecht
March 18, 2019
Gunman kills 3 on Dutch tram;
mayor fears terrorism. A gunman killed three people and wounded five during a mid-morning tram ride Monday in
the Dutch city of Utrecht, raising the specter of another extremist attack only days after the murderous rampage in New Zealand.
Manhunt launched after shooting
on Dutch tram wounds many. A shooting on a tram in the central Dutch city of Utrecht on Monday left "multiple"
people wounded, police said, adding that they are considering the possibility of a "terrorist motive."
Muslim
Terrorist Kills Three on a Dutch Train. Occasionally a "Man Bites Dog" story comes along. But most of the
time, it's "Dog Bites Man." Honest reporting should reflect the ongoing nature of dogs biting men, instead of pretending
that man bites dog is a major crisis.
Manchester
December 31, 2018
Knifeman
'shouts Allah' before station rampage. A knife-wielding attacker shouting 'Allahu Akbar' stabbed three people
at Manchester Victoria station last night, before he was Tasered to the ground and arrested. A man and a woman in their
50s and a British Transport Police officer were injured during the terrifying knife attack, which unfolded as revellers
travelled into the city ahead of the New Year's celebrations. Anti-terror police are handling the investigation, but
officers have yet to confirm whether the incident was a terror attack. [...] Another video shows him shouting 'Allahu Akbar',
meaning 'God is most great' in Arabic, as he was put in the back of a police van.
Man
shouted' Allah' before knife rampage at Victoria Station in Manchester. British counter-terrorism police are
leading an investigation after a knifeman stabbed three people at a central railway station in Manchester, England. Two
commuters — a man and woman in their 50s — were taken to hospital with knife injuries and a British
Transport Police officer was stabbed in the shoulder. An eyewitness to the attack, which occurred at Victoria Station
around 9pm local time on New Year's Eve, said they heard the assailant shout "Allah" during the incident.
First
Muslim terrorist attack of 2019 took place in Manchester Victoria Station. "Allah-Akbar"- shouting, knife
wielding Muslim terrorist has been arrested after stabbing three people in a brutal frenzy in Manchester Victoria
station. Apparently, it took seven, yes seven, cops to handcuff one terrorist.
Morocco
December 17, 2018
Suspects
who 'slaughtered two Scandinavian backpackers hastily-organised terror cell' then 'pledged allegiance to ISIS before
attack'. Two Scandinavian tourists killed in Morocco were slaughtered by a 'lone wolf, hastily organised
terrorist cell' who travelled to the village of Imlil knowing it was popular with foreign hikers. Moroccan police
yesterday arrested five more people for the murders of Louisa Vesterager Jespersen, 24, from Denmark, and Maren Ueland, 28,
of Norway, bringing the total in custody to 19. At a press conference in the country's capital, Rabat, domestic
intelligence spokesman Boubker Sabik labelled the suspects 'lone wolves'.
Graphic
Video has emerged of one of the two Scandinavian female tourists being 'beheaded' by Muslims at popular tourist hiking
trail. The Danish and Norwegian victims, who were students in their 20s, were discovered by other tourists near
the foot of North Africa's highest peak, Mount Toubkad with what police say was 'evidence of violence on their necks' while
unverified local reports say they had been decapitated. At least one of the 3 suspected Muslim beheaders is an
"extremist," according to Morocco authorities. It raises fears that the gruesome double murder in Morocco was an act
of terror.
Maren
Ueland, beheaded by ISIS jihadis in Morocco, in 2015 posted pro-Muslim migrant video on Facebook. [There]
appears to be an archive of Maren Ueland's Facebook page, revised into a sort of memorial page shortly after her murder.
If it is authentic, Maren Ueland, who was brutally murdered by Islamic jihadis while hiking in Morocco, in 2015 posted on
Facebook a video shaming people who oppose the Muslim migrant influx into Europe.
Police
Find 2 Bodies of Scandinavian Tourists Near Mount Toubkal. The bodies of two female tourists of Norwegian and
Danish nationalities were found Monday [12/17/2018] in the province of Al Haouz in the Marrakech-Safi region, 10 kilometers
from Imlil in the Atlas Mountains, according to a statement received by Morocco World News.
ISIS-Inspired
Beheading Video Of Two Women "Authentic". Moroccan authorities have four men in custody after finding the
brutalized bodies of Louisa Vesterager Jespersen of Denmark and Norwegian citizen Maren Ueland. Police have linked the
four to ISIS and consider the dual murders of the two young women a terrorist act. A video reportedly made of the
killings, including the beheading of one of the tourists, has been authenticated by Norwegian investigators. [...] The
existence of the video is bad enough, but to send that barbarity to the friends of their victim is doubly horrific. It
should double our resolve to stamp out the insane radical-Islamist ideology that drives ISIS, a poison it hopes to keep
spreading around the world. And that's not all. They want their caliphate back too, as they proved yesterday.
'It's
Allah's will': Fanatics branded two Scandinavian women the 'enemies of God' as they filmed themselves decapitating one of the
tourists in Morocco. Suspected ISIS terrorists branded two Scandinavian women the 'enemies of God' as they
filmed themselves decapitating one of the tourists in Morocco. Maren Ueland, 28, from Norway, and Louisa Vesterager
Jespersen, 24, from Denmark, were found dead near the village of Imlil in Morocco's High Atlas mountains on Monday
[12/17/2018]. A video showing the murder of one of the women has been recognised as genuine, Danish intelligence
service said today adding that the killings can be connected to ISIS.
Strasbourg, France
December 11, 2018
Fifth
Victim Of Strasbourg Market Attack Dies. The Paris prosecutor's office said on Sunday [12/16/2018] that a fifth
person had died from their wounds following Tuesday's Strasbourg Christmas market shooting. [...] The gunman, Cherif Chekatt,
was killed on Thursday night [12/13/2018] after firing on police, ending a two-day manhunt that involved more than 700 members
of the security forces.
Terror in Strasbourg. In a
way, the crime and its aftermath encapsulates what Europe, the union, represents. The suspect, Strasbourg-born of
Moroccan parents, would have got across the border without formalities; but the police forces on both sides work together as
a matter of routine. Risks; benefits. Taxpayers are rarely consulted. Chekatt, a career criminal before his
30th birthday, had been sent back to France from a German prison after serving a sentence for robbery. He had done time
in France as well, and had a police record in Switzerland. He was known to be a habitual delinquent, but also a
politicized one: he had found religion in jail and was known to have contacts with radical Islamists. His name
was on the S-file, a list of individuals of varying concern to the police.
The Editor says...
One would think that the German and French police know their business and don't need my advice; but really, if
there is a list of known troublemakers, or persons likely to be trouble in the near future, and any of these people
are non-citizens, they should be rounded up and deported.
Christmas
market gunman evades French police two days after attack. The suspected gunman who killed three people at a
Christmas market in the French city of Strasbourg was shot dead on Thursday in a brief gun battle with police after being on
the run for 48 hours, police sources said.
French
Christmas market shooter was radical Islamist on government's radar. The man who sprayed gunfire at a Christmas
market in Strasbourg, killing three people and wounding 13 others, was identified as a radicalized Islamist with a lengthy
rap sheet who was on France's national security list as a possible terror threat, according to reports. Cherif Chekatt,
29, who was known to be part of radicalized networks in his native Strasbourg, is a "repeat offender" and "delinquent" who
served time in French and German prisons, the UK's Independent reported. Senior Interior Ministry official Laurent
Nuñez said on France-Inter radio that police had sought to arrest Chekatt on Tuesday morning [12/11/2018], hours before
the shooting, in connection with an attempted murder and armed robbery.
Known
Wolf: Terrorist Attacks Christmas Market in Strasbourg France. A known individual on a "terror watch
list" opened fire [12/11/2018] at a Christmas Market in Strasbourg France.
Strasbourg
shooting suspect, ID'd as extremist, still at large; 5 others arrested. Before he opened fire on a crowded
Christmas market in Strasbourg, France on Tuesday, 29-year-old Cherif Chekatt yelled "Allahu Akbar," Paris' public prosecutor

terror attack. Though no groups have claimed responsibility for the attack, Islamic terrorists have a history of
plotting assaults at Christmas markets — including one disrupted plot in which nearly a dozen militants sought to
bomb the Strasbourg market around the millennium. Chekatt escaped from the scene in a taxi, bizarrely bragging to the
driver about being injured in a firefight with soldiers after killing 10 people, officials said. Police said three
people were killed in the attack.

Somali
Muslim Arrested for Attempting to Mow Down Jews With Car in Front of L.A. Synagogue. Los Angeles police are
investigating an incident Friday night as a potential hate crime after a Somali man, 32-year-old Mohamed Mohamed Abdi,
attempted to run down worshipers standing outside a Hancock Park synagogue. According to witness, Abdi was yelling
"F*****g Jews! F*****g Jews!" during the attack. Abdi reportedly insulted another couple leaving the synagogue
before getting into his car and attempting to run over two men. He later crashed into another car nearby, at which time
he was arrested. A Koran was found on the dashboard of his car.
Update:
Los
Angeles criminal case against Muslim who tried to run over Jews suspended: "questions about his mental health".
"Mohamed was arrested Nov. 23 after police say he shouted anti-Semitic slurs toward a crowd of worshippers exiting
Congregation Bais Yeshuda in Hancock Park. Investigators said Mohamed tried to run down two men with his car before
speeding away and crashing." However, "Mohamed's family has said he holds no hatred toward the Jewish community or any
other groups," and of course their claims are to be taken at face value, with no investigation or further inquiry. Any
other course of action would be "Islamophobic."

American
tourists stabbed in Amsterdam were targeted by Afghan man with a 'terrorist motive': officials. Two Americans
who were stabbed Friday night [8/31/2018] at a train station in Amsterdam were targeted by an Afghan citizen who had a
"terrorist motive," officials say. City authorities said the 19-year-old suspect, identified only as Jawed S.,
appeared to target the American tourists in a stabbing attack at Central Station just after noon on Friday [8/31/2018].
"Based on the suspect's first statements, he had a terrorist motive," the city administration said in a statement on
Saturday. They did not elaborate on what the statements were or in what ways they might have shown intent.
Amsterdam
stabbing suspect had "terrorist" motive, officials say. An Afghan man shot by police at Amsterdam's central station on
Friday [8/31/2018] after stabbing two American tourists had a "terrorist" motive, city officials said on Saturday. The suspect,
who was identified as a 19-year-old Afghan with a German residence permit, was questioned on Saturday in hospital where he was being
treated for gunshot wounds to his lower body. "First statements made by the suspect indicate he had a terrorist motive,"
Amsterdam city council said in a statement.
Dutch
terror threat level stays at 4 of 5. The Netherlands' counter-terror chief says the country's threat level will
remain at four on a scale that tops out at five following a double stabbing at the city's main railway station that officials
say had a "terrorist motive."
Dutch
Police Shoot Suspect After Stabbing at Train Station. Police in the Dutch capital shot and wounded a suspect
Friday [8/31/2018] following a stabbing at Amsterdam's busy central railway station. Amsterdam police said in a series

taken to a hospital.
Update:
Afghan
'who stabbed two American tourists' at Amsterdam train station says he travelled to Holland 'to protect the Prophet Mohammed'. An
Afghan man suspected of stabbing two American tourists last year at Amsterdam's Central Station has told judges he travelled to the Netherlands
'to protect the Prophet Mohammed'. Jawed Santani, 20, appeared at a two-day hearing in a heavily fortified courtroom in Amsterdam, where
he faces two attempted murder charges with the aim of committing an act of terror.

'Allahu
akbar' shouting knifeman killed his mother and sister before being shot dead by police in France. A 36-year-old
taxi driver has been identified as the man behind a knife attack outside Paris today [8/24/2018] in which he stabbed his mother and
sister to death and seriously injured a third person. Kamel Salhi, who had been on a terror watch-list since 2016, was
shot dead by police after shouting 'Allahu akbar' during the attack in Trappes. ISIS has claimed responsibility for the
attack in the town 20 miles west of Paris, where more than 50 people have travelled to Syria and Iraq to fight for ISIS.
Shortly after the attack, ISIS's Aamaq propaganda agency tweeted that the man had heeded their calls to target 'nationals of
coalition countries.'
Suspected
Islamist shot dead after killing mother and sister in Paris suburb. A suspected Islamist with a past conviction for "defending terrorism"
was shot dead by French police on Thursday [8/23/2018] after he killed his mother and sister and seriously wounded a female passerby in Trappes, 33 km
southwest of Paris. [...] The killer was identified as Kamel Salhi (36). He figured on the French "S" and FSPRT lists for suspected Islamist militants.
In 2016, Salhi was charged with "defending terrorism" but let off for insufficient evidence. A local official in Trappes told France Info radio that
Salhi "was known to police for being psychologically fragile and for having problems in his relationship".
The Editor says...
He was known to the police as a convicted terrorist sympathizer. He was "shouting 'Allahu akbar' during the attack."
His crime appears to have been some sort of Islamic "honor killing." But the police insist he's just insane, and the
incident has nothing to do with terrorism, so just forget you saw anything here.

London
Subway Terror Attack — Why is There a Media Blackout? There was yet another terror attack in London,
Monday night [8/20/2018], however, there is an eerie silence coming from the mainstream media. What is going on with
the details of this attack that would silence the media giants? This is typical, and we can expect more silence from
the MSM, especially if the attack was conducted by an Islamic terrorist. According to the one source we could find, The
Guardian, the attack happened on Monday night. The gunman opened fire, shooting three civilians. The Guardian
says there are no reported casualties. Of course, we don't know who the suspects are because the media has stopped
doing its job due to "political correctness."
Three

No
terror link in London Underground shooting: police. Three people were after a gunman opened fire outside a north London
Underground station on Monday night, Scotland Yard said. The victims' injuries from the incident outside the Kingsbury station
were not thought to be life-threatening, a spokesperson said. The incident is not treated as terror-related, police added.

believed to be life-threatening. [...] Scotland Yard said the incident was 'not terror-related' and have not yet made any arrests.

He's a regular choir boy — or whatever the equivalent is at a mosque.
'Sudanese
immigrant terror attacker' who drove around London for hours before smashing his car into cyclists outside
Parliament. A friend of the Westminster terror suspect described him as a 'kind, quiet' and 'decent' person who
is 'always smiling' — and that the car crash outside the Houses of Parliament was an 'definitely an accident'. Speaking to
ITV News this evening, Anwar Khater said he was sure Salih Khater did not mean to injure people yesterday when his car rammed
through pedestrians and cyclists during the morning rush-hour. He said: 'You can take three words to describe any
good person, he is. He is very generous, very smiley... even in any event that happens. He is always
participating in a good way.
Another
Terrorist Attack In London — 10 Cyclists Mowed Down At 50mph. Well, their Mayor DID tell us that
terror attacks would be 'part and parcel' of living in a big city. Of course, that's the same country that —
for years — turned a blind eye to organized rape gangs. The country that arrested Tommy Robinson for
reporting on the trial of members of one of those very same gangs, and routinely arrests people for 'hateful' Twitter
posts. For all that care taken not to offend the 'religion of peace', they are once again seeing mass casualties in
London.
Another
Terrorist Attack in London: Jihadist Hits 15 Cyclists With Vehicle. Sadly another jihadist attack hits
the heart of London, England, today as a terrorist used a car to drive directly into pedestrians and cyclists only a few
yards away from an earlier, almost identical, attack. Thankfully, no one was killed; several cyclists were hit by the
vehicle and treated for injuries.
Toronto
July 22, 2018
Distrust of
Police Growing in Canada. July 22 was a balmy Sunday evening in Toronto and a lot of people were on the section
of the city's Danforth Avenue known as Greektown. A 29-year-old man, later identified as Faisal Hussain, walked slowly
down the street firing bullets into restaurants, coffee shops and other places where people congregated. When it was
all over, 13 people were injured. Reese Fallon, 18 was killed and 10-year-old Julianna Kozis, who went to the Danforth
with her family for ice cream, died in hospital the next day. Hussain was killed by self-inflicted bullet wounds during
a shootout with police. Hussain's name was not released until late the next day. As soon as it was, a spokesperson
for the family released a statement to CBC saying the shooter was mentally ill. What the family says is not evidence of
mental illness but it was enough for the media to make the poor 29-year-old the 16th and most important victim of the
shooting. The police were quick to downplay the fact this was a terrorist act. While acknowledging they were
checking his computer and online postings, the fact it might have been terrorism was ignored. Toronto police were
overjoyed a day later when ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack. They beamingly announced there was no evidence
ISIS ordered the killings. Of course that was not the issue; the issue was whether Hussain was inspired by ISIS which
would make his actions a terrorist attack. We don't know and in all likilhood will never know.
Did we just dodge 9/11
2.0? On July 22, 2018 Faisal Hussein, a Canadian-born 29-year-old male of Pakistani heritage and Muslim faith,
opened fire with a handgun on citizens along Toronto's Danforth Avenue, killing two and wounding 13. After an exchange of
gunfire with police Faisal Hussein turned his gun on himself. Faisal was known to police. He had posted
favourable comments on jihadi websites and had recently visited Afghanistan. In mid-2017 Faisal's brother, Farad
Hussain, suffered an overdose. He has been in a coma ever since. In September 2017 firefighters responded to a
carbon monoxide alarm at a house on Liatris Drive, in Pickering, Ontario (40 kilometres east of Toronto). Inside the
house they found a cache of weapons, including 31 identical high-end handguns, and 42 kilograms of carfentanil. It
was the largest carfentanil find in North America; if not the world. This house was Farad Hussain's home at the time of
his overdose. The media misrepresent the 42 kilos of carfentanil as a major narcotics stash. Actually, it
was a massive chemical weapons stockpile.
How Unclean Was My Valley.
As more information about last week's Danforth Ave. shooting in Toronto comes to light, the entire episode becomes less
surprising. The shooter who killed two girls and injured 13 others was, as we noted last week, another member of what
Mark calls the Amalgamated Union of Known Wolves. Faisal Hussain's brother had ties to the Thorncliffe Park Kings, a
street gang headquartered in the neighborbood with an 80 percent Muslim population. That same brother once lived at a
house where police recovered 33 guns and 42 kilograms of carfentanil. Carfentanil is a powerful street drug, but
also has the potential to be used as a chemical weapon. Hussain himself previously threatened to cut his building security
guard's throat, the guard told the Toronto Sun. His family prayed at a mosque that'll surely be familiar to longtime
readers. The Hussain family went to the Masjid Dar-us Salaam, the mosque that served as the force behind the infamous
"mosqueteria" at the nearby Valley Park Middle School in Toronto, where, every Friday, the cafeteria played host to
sharia-compliant Islamic prayers.
ISIS
claims responsibility for deadly shooting in Toronto. The Islamic State has claimed responsibility for a
shooting in Toronto on Sunday that killed two people and wounded 13, the group's AMAQ news agency said Wednesday
[7/25/2018].
Older
brother of Toronto mass shooter was facing drug and weapons charges: court docs. The older brother of the
gunman responsible for one of Toronto's worst mass shootings was facing drug and weapons charges when he went into a coma
last year, court records show. After Faisal Hussain was identified as having carried out Sunday's attack that killed
two and wounded 13, it emerged that his brother had been unconscious in a coma at Sunnybrook Hospital in Toronto for months.
The Editor says...
Nice try but this is all immaterial. It is an attempt to generate sympathy for a terrorist and his family.
Toronto Discovers
the Joys of 'Diversity'. Detectives in Canada are still seeking a motive for a mass shooting which left three
dead — including the gunman — and injured more than a dozen others, as residents of Toronto grapple
with the latest in a string of violent incidents to hit Canada's biggest city in recent months. Federal officials said
on Tuesday that there was no terror link to Sunday's attack in which the lone gunman opened fire along a bustling avenue in
the city, seemingly shooting at random at pedestrians and into shops and restaurants. "At this time, there is no
national security nexus to the investigation," said a spokesperson for the ministry of public safety. The attack killed
two people, a recent high school graduate Reese Fallon and 10-year-old Julianna Kozis. The 13 injured include six women
and girls, as well as seven men.
Yet
Another "Mentally Disturbed" Muslim, Faisal Hussein, Shoots 14 People, Murders Two. There seem to be an awful
lot of 'mentally ill' people running amok, mass-murdering — or trying to mass-murder — people in public places
of late, in numerous countries across the Western world, and a great many of them seem to be Muslims.
One
dead and at least nine, including a child, are injured in a mass shooting in Toronto. Two people have died and
another 13 are in hospital after a gunman dressed all in black opened fire in central Toronto on Sunday night [7/22/2018].
[...] The gunman, 29, was also shot dead after getting into a firefight with officers. Police have not released his identity
due to an investigation by the Special Investigation Unit, and have given no indication of what his motive might be. [...] Mark
Saunders, Toronto Police Chief, confirmed the suspect was killed in 'an exchange of gunfire' with the police and pronounced
dead at the scene. He said police are still looking for a motive behind the shooting. [...] Toronto Councillor Paula Fletcher
told CP24 she'd been told the gunman was emotionally disturbed, as did Councillor Mary Fragedakis. 'It's not gang
related. It looks like someone who is very disturbed,' Fletcher said.
The Editor says...
The cops, as usual, pretend to be baffled! This guy can't possibly be an Islamic terrorist — he must be crazy.
Jihad — and
the Usual Excuse — in Toronto. On Sunday night, a Muslim named Faisal Hussain strolled calmly down
Danforth Avenue in Toronto's Greektown, a popular area known for its restaurants and cafes. Hussain pulled out a weapon
and started firing into some of those restaurants, murdering two people and injuring another 13. The most obvious explanation
for this is that Hussain was answering the call of the Islamic State (ISIS) and al-Qaeda for individual Muslims to murder
civilians in Western countries. [...] Hussain's family, on the other hand, was ready with a different explanation.
Family
says suspect in Toronto shooting had mental problems. A man whose family said he suffered from psychosis and
depression fired a handgun into restaurants and cafes in a lively Toronto neighborhood, killing a 10-year-old girl and an
18-year-old woman and wounding 13 others in an attack that has shaken the confidence of many in the normally safe city.
Authorities on Monday evening identified the suspect as Faisal Hussain, 29, of Toronto, who died in an exchange of gunfire
with police. It was not immediately clear whether he killed himself or was killed by police.
The Editor says...
What else could the family members possibly say? They can't say, We go to a mosque every week where the Imam preaches hate
and encourages us to put the sword to the infidel. They can't say, The rest of us would like to do the same thing someday.
They can't say, Islam intends take over the world by violence and intimidation, and this guy was just doing his part. No,
they have to claim that this fellow is nuts, and must have misunderstood Islam in exactly the same way that hundreds of others
have misunderstood it over the last few decades.
Toronto
Greektown shooting: 2 dead, as 15 people 'struck by gunfire'. The suspect, identified by police on Monday afternoon
[7/23/2018] as 29-year-old Faisal Hussain, fired shots at groups of people several times while walking along Danforth Avenue, the
agency that investigates police-involved shootings said Monday. He was armed with a handgun and an "exchange of fire" took
place after officers located him, officials said. He was subsequently found dead nearby. [...] Hussain was not on any U.S.
watchlist prior to the shooting, four senior law enforcement officials told NBC News. They also said Hussain did not
seem to have much of a social media presence, if any. [Toronto Police Chief Mark] Saunders said the act was not
random, but added that investigators were not ruling anything out, including terrorism. Authorities were seeking judicial
approval to research his residence.

in Paris terror attack was flagged as potential threat. The terrorist behind the deadly Paris knife attack was
a French citizen born in Russia's Chechnya who was on the police's radar for radicalism, authorities said Sunday [5/13/2018].
Police identified Khamzat Azimov, 20, as the man who shouted "Allahu akbar" — God is greatest — before killing

Travis AFB Attacker Identified.
Just in case you missed the news with all the porn star and sullen teenage instastars news, there was an attack on Travis Air
Force Base in California last week, and authorities have now identified the attacker: ["]The man who drove into
Travis Air Force Base in California on Wednesday night [3/21/2018] has been identified as Hafiz Kazi, 51, according to the FBI
special agent in charge, Sean Ragan.["] [...] I'm going to go out on a limb and guess Hafiz Kazi wasn't a Baptist.
FBI
Can't Find Motive of Muslim Who Drove Burning Minivan Onto Travis Air Force Base. "Motive a mystery in car
explosion at Travis Air Force Base" was the Los Angeles Times headline, and this one is indeed a real mystery. A Muslim
named Hafiz Kazi, according to the Times, "drove a burning minivan filled with propane and gas tanks into the front gate of
Travis Air Force Base in Northern California." After scrutinizing all the evidence closely, the FBI just can't figure out
what could possibly have been Kazi's motive. And that in a nutshell shows what's wrong with today's FBI.
FBI
can't figure out motive of Muslim who drove burning minivan full of propane tanks onto Travis Air Force Base.
Jihad Watch: "We don't have any nexus of terrorism at this point," Ragan said. That means they didn't find an
ISIS membership card in his wallet, or lots of phone calls to Iraq or Syria, or a note from Kazi reading, "I did this for
Allah and Islam. Allahu akbar."
Attack
at Travis Air Force Base in California reportedly being treated as terrorism. An incident this week at a U.S.
Air Force base in Northern California — in which a vehicle burst into flames after crashing through the main
gate — is being treated as "an act of terrorism," according to a report. Authorities said a driver died,
likely by igniting himself, after gaining "unauthorized access" to Travis Air Force Base in Solano County, about 55 miles
northeast of San Francisco, on Wednesday night [3/21/2018]. There was no further threat to the base, where approximately
7,000 active military members and 3,700 civilians live and work, Air Force officials said. The FBI has also joined the
investigation alongside base officials.
Terrorist
is killed after driving through the gates of a California air force base, setting himself on fire. A motorist's
vehicle burst into flames after it 'gained unauthorized access' to the main gate of a Northern California Air Force
base. The incident is being considered an act of terror. Travis Air Force Base officials and the FBI said they
are investigating the Wednesday night event in which the motorist died after crashing the vehicle at the military
installation. The vehicle was loaded with propane tanks as it ran through the main gate of the base. CBS News
reports that the incident is being considered an act of terror. The driver, whose identity is known by law enforcement
but has not been released, ignited himself, causing the car to drive off the road and into a ditch.

Lasandra Johnson, 34, who was still hospitalized Tuesday after being injured in the fiery crash, has a long rap sheet
including drug and domestic violence arrests.
Florida
woman deliberately crashes car into sheriff's station, media ignore the obvious. It's a rule of thumb for alert
readers that when a politician is caught doing something embarrassing or criminal, if no political party is specified, you
can safely bet that he is a Democrat. Something similar appears to be at work with terroristic acts. Consider the
incident on Monday in which a woman named Lasandra Johnson appeared to deliberately crash her car into a Broward Sheriff's
Office in Pembroke Park, Florida, carrying accelerants that caused the car to burst into flames.
Florida: Woman who intentionally
crashed car into police station is devout Muslima — total media blackout. Why does the mainstream
media always cover up this savagery? Deliberately ramming cars into people and buildings, and targeting police in
particular, is a common jihadi pattern. The Islamic State (ISIS) and others have called on Muslims in the U.S. to
attack police, and to run them over with their cars. If the media in Florida were worth its salt and actually
interested in reporting, they would tell these facts to the public, and reveal that Lasandra Johnson is a devout Muslim.

Palm
Beach "Known Wolf" Teenage Jihadist Had Extensive FBI Monitoring. A 17-year-old Jihadist in Palm Beach Florida
stabbed three people, killing one, over the weekend. Corey Johnson admitted to police he was inspired by ISIS and
carrying out the attacks on behalf of Islam. Yesterday [3/14/2018] local, state and FBI officials also admitted that he
was "on their radar", uh huh. Well, you're likely not going to believe how extensive their radar contact
and monitoring was. As an example: they were mirroring his social media in real time; they knew he had contacts
with ISIS; they knew he was behind international threats; the FBI was 'actively' monitoring him; and all the officials
met several times to discuss the likelihood his unstable behavior might lead to much worse. But they didn't want to
take action, because he was a minor, and preferred "redirection" or diversionary programs to change his behavior.
Teen
cites Muslim faith as reason for killing boy and stabbing two others, police say. A teenager invoked his Muslim
faith as the reason he killed a 13-year-old boy and also stabbed a woman and her son, Palm Beach Gardens police said Tuesday
[3/13/2018]. Police say Corey Johnson, 17, of Jupiter, was sleeping over at the home of Elaine Simon when the knife attack
happened early Monday. Police say Johnson killed another boy who was sleeping over — 13-year-old Jovanni
Brand — by stabbing him repeatedly and cutting his throat. It was Jovanni's birthday. Police said
Johnson also stabbed Simon about 12 times and stabbed Simon's 13-year-old son, Dane Bancroft, about 32 times.
FBI
Was Monitoring Florida Muslim Teen Who Stabbed Boy to Death in Name of Islam, Did Nothing to Stop Him for a
Year. Corey Johnson, a 17-year-old Florida youth who converted to Islam confessed to killing a 13-year-old boy
at a sleepover and attacking the host family in the name of Islam on Monday. Johnson was on the FBI's radar screen for
over a year as an ISIS sympathizer but the FBI did nothing because he was a juvenile. Johnson also stabbed the host
family's 13-year-old son 32 times as he defended his mother while she was being stabbed, according to Palm Beach Gardens,
Florida police.
Muslim
teen fatally stabs 1, injures 2 in Koran-inspired knife attack. A Jupiter [Florida] teenager said his Muslim
faith led him to fatally stab a boy on his 13th birthday and injure two others at a sleepover Sunday night in BallenIsles
Country Club, Palm Beach Gardens police said during a 2 p.m. news conference. Corey Johnson, 17, was arrested Monday
[3/12/2018] after he reportedly confessed to stabbing the three people while he spent the night at a friend's home in the gated
community off PGA Boulevard. He faces one murder and two attempted-murder charges in the stabbings. The FBI also is
investigating the attacks.
Teen
says Islam is why he stabbed boy to death and tried to kill two others. A teenager in Florida, who was sleeping
over at a friends house, said that his Muslim faith is what propelled him to stab a boy to death as well as stab the mother
and brother in an attempt to kill them.
A Boy's 13th Birthday Turned
Into A Bloody Nightmare Over Teen's Muslim Faith. A teen accused of a fatal stabbing spree at a sleepover
admitted to the attack and said it was due to his Muslim faith, Palm Beach Gardens Police Chief Clint Shannon announced
Monday [3/12/2018]. The 17-year-old converted to Islam after watching radical Islamic propaganda, which encourages
believers to kill those who doubt the religion, the suspect said. The teen admitted to killing the 13-year old boy
after allegedly stabbing him and two others with a knife, CBS News reported. The teen also read the Quran before
attacking to "give him courage to carry out his intentions," he admitted.
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

Dept.
of Homeland Security Classifies Harrisburg Shooting as Act of Terror. A man named Ahmed Aminamin El-Mofty
engaged in gunfire with police at more than one location in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania on Friday night. The Department of
Homeland Security has now classified the incident as a terror attack. This is also apparently another case of someone
who entered the country through chain migration.
Family of Harrisburg
gunman say they're shocked: 'That's not his behavior at all'. Ahmed Soweilam is still in shock over the events
of Friday night, the night his sister's ex-husband is accused of going on a two-hour shooting spree across Harrisburg.
Ahmed Aminamin El-Mofty, 51, is accused of firing at police officers in three locations across the city between 4 and 6 p.m.,
leaving one officer wounded, before El-Mofty was shot and killed by police. Ahmed Soweilam, 34, the co-owner of a Halal
store in Camp Hill, said he and his family are still deeply confused by the incident. "That's not his behavior at all,"
he said. "That's not him. I still don't believe it."
Harrisburg
gunman has ties to Middle East. Authorities are asking the public for any information they may have on Ahmed
Amin El-Mofty to come forward. El-Mofty opened fire in Harrisburg on Friday evening in three separate shootings, before
being killed in a shoot out with State Police. One state Trooper was injured, but she is expected to be okay.
Shootings in
Harrisburg 'a terror attack': Homeland Security. The Department of Homeland Security referred to the three
shootings in Harrisburg on Friday as "a terror attack." Tyler Q. Houlton, acting press secretary for agency, tweeted a
statement Saturday about the incidents. Houlton said that Ahmed El-Mofty was a naturalized U.S. citizen who was admitted
to the country from Egypt on a family-based immigration visa. "The long chain of migration that led to the suspect's
admission into the United States was initiated years ago by a distant relative of the suspect," Houlton said in a release. "One
of the most recent links in that chain was an extended family member admitted into the United States from Egypt on an F24 visa."
Gunman
killed after targeting Pennsylvania cops in shooting rampage. A gunman hell-bent on shooting cops was killed in
a firefight with police in Harrisburg, Pa., Friday [12/22/2017], authorities said. During his rampage, Ahmed Aminamin
El-Mofty, 51, did manage to hit one cop with a bullet, Dauphin County District Attorney Ed Marsico said.

hitting pedestrians. The man who deliberately drove a car into a crowd in Melbourne is a drug user with mental
health issues but no known terrorism links, police say. The Australian citizen of Afghan descent was taken into custody
after a struggle at the scene of the incident. The car the 32-year-old was driving hit a number of pedestrians on
Flinders Street, a busy thoroughfare in the city centre, said Victoria Police. Fourteen people have been injured, with
several in a critical condition. A second man, 24, was arrested after being seen filming the incident. He had a
bag of knives with him, police added.
Police
arrest two men after they 'drove a car into Christmas rush hour crowds' outside Melbourne's Flinders. More than
a dozen pedestrians, including a toddler, have been injured with four fighting for life in hospital after a car 'deliberately'
ploughed into rush hour crowds in the heart of Melbourne. A white Suzuki SUV with p-plates, driven by 32-year-old man of
Afghan descent, who The Herald Sun have identified as Saeed Noori, crashed into a large group of commuters and shoppers at the
corner of Melbourne's busy Elizabeth Street and Flinders Street at 4.41pm on Thursday [12/21/2017]. The 32-year-old
lone wolf driver was known to police and was arrested at the scene. The driver, who is an Australian citizen, is
under police guard at hospital with shoulder and hand injuries. Victoria Police said the driver has a history of drug
use, criminal history with a minor assault in 2010 and is on a mental health plan.
We Are the Bollards.
You'll recall there was a previous "vehicle attack" in downtown Melbourne earlier this year, after which the authorities
ordered up the bollardization of every pedestrianized precinct in the vicinity. [...] In this case, the non-terror-related
Australian citizen simply waited until the little green sign indicated it was safe for pedestrians to cross the street and
then floored it. In an amusing touch, his car eventually came to a rest against a bollard.
Melbourne
attack driver had mental health issues but no terror connection. The driver of a car which plowed into
Christmas shoppers in Melbourne Thursday had a history of drug use and mental health issues, police said. Acting chief
commissioner of Victoria Police Shane Patton told reporters that while the crash was considered to be deliberate, there was
no evidence of a link to terrorism. [...] A 24-year-old man was also arrested at the scene, after he was seen filming the
incident on his phone. Police found three knives in his bag.
Melbourne
Car Attack Was Not Connected to Terrorism, Police Say. The Australian police could point to no motive for the
attack, which paralyzed the city's heart at the end of the workday, as it was teeming with people heading home or doing
holiday shopping. Among the injured was a preschool-age child and an off-duty police officer who arrested the
driver. Four of the 19 victims admitted to hospitals were in critical condition, the authorities said. Shane
Patton, Victoria's acting police commissioner, described the driver as a 32-year-old Australian citizen of Afghan descent.

Hmmm. Let's connect the dots: [1] A guy intentionally drives a car into a crowd. [2] Same
thing happened earlier in the year and it WAS terrorism. [3] Christmas shoppers. [4] "Afghan descent."

accessory after the fact, carrying knives in a backpack, is standing there recording the whole thing. [6] The news media
refuse to say his name. [7] The police refuse to call it terrorism. Logical conclusion: It's terrorism.
The next day, some of the truth starts to spill out, along with the perps' name:
Driver
ran over Christmas shoppers as revenge for 'mistreatment of Muslims': cops. The man who plowed an SUV into a crowd
of Christmas shoppers in Australia told cops he carried out the attack as retaliation for the "mistreatment of Muslims," officials
said Friday [12/22/2017]. Saeed Noori, 32, injured 19 people — three critically — when he sped his
vehicle into a busy intersection in downtown Melbourne outside the city's main train station just before 5 p.m.
Thursday. Noori, an Afghan who was granted entry into Australia in 2004 as a refugee and became a citizen two years later,
made the comments to police after he was arrested. "He has said that he attributes his actions to the perceived mistreatment
of Muslims," Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull said.

New York
December 11, 2017
Lefty
media has lots of love for terrorists. C'mon down, Akayed Ullah, the New York Port Authority bus terminal
suicide bomber from Bangladesh, this month's "diversity lottery" terrorist. In the underground corridor linking the bus
station to Times Square, the devout Muslim walked by any number of ads and billboards for assorted infidel products, until he
got to where he wanted to detonate his homemade pipe bomb full of nails. He set it off in front of a Christmas
poster. Needless to say, The New York Times has been swooning over this nice young man. The undocumented
immigrant got the traditional front-page sob story last week. He was a good boy, a very good boy. He had recently
returned to the Third World hellhole from which he came. It was a "lonely trip."
We All Live in Bangladesh
Now. Akayed Ullah, a Bangladeshi Muslim living in Brooklyn, really hated Christmas. He hated Christmas so
much that he used Christmas tree lights (along with a battery and some wire) as a trigger for a pipe bomb. He filled
the pipe bomb with screws so that when it went off, metal shrapnel would tear bloody holes through morning commuters in
Manhattan. Wearing a hooded jacket and a backpack to cover the pipe bomb strapped to his body, Ullah got on the F Train
at the 18th Avenue elevated subway station off Little Bangladesh. Like the Duke Ellington song says, he switched over
to the A Train at Jay Street. It was early morning, but there were plenty of people riding the train. Jay Street
is a major transit hub. But Ullah was waiting to blow up somewhere else.
Family
Of Alleged Port Authority Terrorist 'Outraged' Over Police Behavior. The family of Akayed Ullah, the suspect
behind Monday morning's failed suicide bombing at the New York City Port Authority Bus Terminal, expressed "outrage" by the
actions of law enforcement. "We are heartbroken by the violence that was targeted at our city today, and by the
allegations being made against a member of our family," Albert Fox Cahn, the legal director for CAIR New York, stated on
behalf of the Ullah family, WABC reported Monday. "But we are also outraged by the behavior of law enforcement
officials who have held children as small as four years old out in the cold and who held a teenager out of high school
classes to interrogate him without a lawyer, without his parents," the family said.
How Much Does
the 'New York Times' Hate Donald Trump? [Scroll down] One might point on that there have been plenty of
Muslim anti-Christian episodes since 2014, including the recent attempted suicide bombing in Times Square, which was
"provoked" by the sight of Christmas posters. This creature, an "immigrant" from Bangladesh, was kind enough to confess
that he tried to kill Real Americans "for the Islamic State."
The
Port Authority Attack is a Snapshot of Our Future. New York City on Monday suffered another terror attack at
the hands of a young Muslim man who swore fealty to the Islamic State of Iraq and Al Sham (better known as ISIS). The
27-year-old Bangladeshi national strapped a pipe bomb on himself and attempted to detonate it at the New York City Port
Authority in the middle of morning rush hour. Three people were injured (mercifully, there were no deaths), and the
would-be bomber, identified as Akayed Ullah, was taken to a nearby hospital. It is a good thing for New York City and
the country that the terrorist wannabe did not understand how to build a proper pipe bomb. If he had, there likely
would be many people dead and maimed, much economic damage, and another wave of fear would grip the city and the nation.
Port
Authority bombing suspect targeted hallway because of Christmas posters. The alleged Port Authority bomber
spent an hour spilling his guts to investigators at Bellevue Hospital on Monday — saying he picked the specific
hallway because of Christmas posters and that he was avenging violence against Muslims around the world, law enforcement
sources said. Akayed Ullah mentioned President Trump and past administrations during the grilling, and said his anger
was fueled by decades of anti-Muslim bloodshed in Gaza, Syria and Iraq. Ullah, a Bangladeshi immigrant, said the attack
was specifically inspired by ISIS — "not Al-Qaeda" — and also mentioned seeing Christmas posters before
detonating the device in the underground tunnel between the bustling bus depot and the Times Square subway.
Bangladeshi
Muslim Bomber Chose Target Because of Christmas. The only way to stop this War on Christmas is by ending
Islamic terror migration to this country.
New
York bomber was inspired by Islamic State Christmas attacks, officials say. A would-be suicide bomber set off a
pipe bomb strapped to his body during the morning rush hour Monday, deep inside one of Manhattan's busiest commuter
corridors, police said. He chose the location because of its Christmas-themed posters, recalling strikes in Europe
against Christmas markets, he told investigators, and set off the bomb in retaliation for U.S. airstrikes on Islamic State
targets in Syria and elsewhere, several law enforcement officials said. The blast echoed through the subway tunnels
just off Times Square, and filled parts of the Port Authority Bus Terminal with smoke as commuters fled into the streets to
escape what authorities quickly concluded was an act of terror.
What Were
the Motives of the Port Authority Bomber? What were the motives of Ayaked Ullah, the Port Authority bomber in
yesterday's attack? There are many news headlines that address the issue, and they advance differing theories, each of
them presented as fact.
NYC
Subway Suicide Bomber is a Muslim Who Entered the Country on a 'Diversity' Visa. The suspect in the New York
City subway blast Monday told investigators he detonated a crude bomb after he spotted a holiday display and did it in the
name of ISIS to avenge the deaths of Muslims around the world, law enforcement officials said. Akayed Ullah, a
27-year-old Bangladeshi immigrant, said he consumed terrorist propaganda and learned how to make the explosive device
through online instructions, the officials said. He assembled it at his Brooklyn apartment, they said.

Terror Attack Courtesy of Chain Migration From America-Hating, Third World Hell-Hole. And how did this animal

migration — signed into law by President Lyndon Baines Johnson — has resulted in the immigrant share of
the U.S. population almost tripling from about 4.7 percent to around 14 percent since 1970.
Family
of Port Authority bombing suspect is 'outraged' at investigators' tactics. The family of the alleged
ISIS-inspired Port Authority bomber said they were "heartbroken" by the attack on Monday and blasted law enforcement agencies
for what they claimed were heavy-handed tactics by investigators. "We are heartbroken by the violence that was targeted
at our city today and by the allegations being made against a member of our family," said the statement read by Albert Fox
Cahn, the Legal Director for the NY Chapter Council for Islamic Relations. "But we're also outraged by the behavior of
the law enforcement officials who held children as small as 4 years old out in the cold and who pulled a teenager out
of high school classes to interrogate him without lawyer, without his parents."

New
York's failed terror attacker revealed to be part of large family who all got in thanks to his aunt or uncle.
President Donald Trump said Monday a bomb blast in Manhattan highlights the need for an immigration overhaul — as the man
arrested was revealed to be part of a large Bangladeshi family sponsored by his aunt or uncle. Trump said that the U.S.
'must fix its lax immigration system, which allows far too many dangerous, inadequately vetted people' into the country.
The Republican president pointed to his controversial travel ban as an example of the kind of policy that needs to be put in
place. And he called on Congress to end 'chain migration,' in which family members are permitted to join relatives who
have immigrated.
HS:
Suicide-Bomb Suspect Arrived by Chain Migration. On Monday 27-year-old Akayed Ullah, a Bangladesh national,
injured three individuals when he allegedly tried to detonate a suicide bomb in New York City in a planned terrorist
attack. Ullah, as confirmed by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), entered the U.S. in 2011 as a chain
migrant. Under "chain migration," new immigrants to the U.S. are allowed to bring an unlimited number of poorly-screened
foreign relatives with them, creating a never-ending flow of immigration from some terror-ridden countries. Ullah came
to the U.S. through the F43 visa, allowing him to obtain a Green Card simply because his father's brother or sister had
recently been naturalized as a U.S. citizen. This process is known as "extended-family chain migration."
Port
Authority Bomb Suspect Says He Was Angry About Muslim Killings, Meant Blast as Suicide Attack: Officials.
A man with a "low-tech" pipe bomb strapped to his body with Velcro and zip ties detonated the device in an underground
passageway near Port Authority Bus Terminal in midtown Manhattan as Monday's morning commute got underway, prompting mass
evacuations but appearing to seriously injure no one but himself, according to city and state officials. NYPD officials
have detained and identified the suspect as Akayed Ullah, a 27-year-old man of Bangladeshi descent with a last known address
in Brooklyn. Commissioner James O'Neill said Ullah "did make statements" about ISIS following the blast in a block-long
tunnel between the Times Square subway station and the bus terminal around 7:15 a.m.
Chain
migration responsible for NYC terror suspect's entry: White House. The attempted suicide bombing in New
York early Monday would never have happened if President Trump's immigration policies had been in place, the White House said
after it was revealed that the terror suspect had entered the country via chain migration. Akayed Ullah, a 27-year-old
Bangladeshi national, allegedly strapped a pipe bomb to his body with Velcro and zip ties, and it detonated in a subway
corridor, New York Police Department officials said. Hours later, the Department of Homeland Security confirmed to Fox
News that Ullah was admitted to the U.S. after presenting a passport displaying an F43 family immigrant visa in 2011.
Suicide
bomber strikes Port Authority. An ISIS-inspired would-be suicide bomber set off a homemade explosive device at
the Port Authority Bus Terminal subway station Monday morning [12/11/2017], seriously wounding himself and injuring three
others, law enforcement sources said. The man — a 27-year-old Brooklyn man identified by high ranking police
sources as Akayed Ullah — had wires attached to him and a 5-inch metal pipe bomb and battery pack strapped to his
midsection as he walked through the Manhattan transit hub. The man partially detonated the device, which he was
carrying under the right side of his jacket, prematurely inside the passageway to the A, C and E trains at Eighth
Avenue and West 42nd Street around 7:40 a.m., sources said.
Suspect
'wearing wires' is taken into custody after blast near Times Square. A Bangladeshi national in his 20s has been
taken into custody with serious injuries after a suspected pipe bomb he was carrying malfunctioned and exploded prematurely
inside a Midtown Manhattan subway station Monday morning [12/11/2017]. The explosion happened around 7:20am, in an
underground tunnel linking the Port Authority Bus Terminal to Times Square. The underground tunnel is a major
thoroughfare for workers during the morning rush hour. The suspect, identified as 27-year-old Akayed Ullah, was found
injured at the scene and rushed to Bellevue Hospital. He was wearing what appears to be a homemade pipe bomb attacked
to his body with velcro and zip ties. Authorities say Ullah is talking to investigators at the hospital.
Suspect
reportedly tied to ISIS sets off rush-hour bomb. A Bangladeshi man reportedly inspired by ISIS set off a pipe
bomb inside New York's Port Authority bus terminal during rush hour Monday morning, sowing mass chaos but causing few
injuries — likely because the "attempted terrorist" detonated his "low tech device" prematurely. Akayed
Ullah, 27, set off the "effectively low-tech device" in a subway passageway just before 7:30 a.m., New York Gov. Andrew
Cuomo said in a news conference. Ullah suffered burns and wounds to his abdomen and hands and appeared to be the only
person seriously injured in the pipe bomb explosion, authorities said.

Man Explains Mall Stabbings. The Star Tribune article on the charges noted that no motive for the stabbings was
offered in the complaint, but that "it did suggest Abdirahman has had psychological difficulties. In 2016, he was
arrested on suspicion of stabbing two staff members with a pen at an inpatient psychiatric unit." That case apparently
went nowhere. This past Thursday Abdiraham pleaded guilty to the assault charges. [...] Eyewitness News reporter Beth
McDonough didn't leave it at that. She also sought comment from interested parties. Twin Cities Somali community
spokesman Omar Jamal suggested that Abdirahman is not simply the basket case presented by the Star Tribune. "This is a
widespread sentiment with Somali youth," he said. Jamal said the federal government's effort to make it difficult for
would-be jihadists to travel abroad and join a terrorist group has had unintended consequences locally.

'Bike
path terrorist' Sayfullo Saipov threatened to decapitate corrections officer: court papers. Accused bike path
terrorist Sayfullo Saipov threatened to decapitate a federal corrections officer for repeatedly waking him while he's locked
up at the Metropolitan Correctional Center, a new court filing detailing a trove of the government's evidence against him
alleges. Saipov, who's accused of killing eight people during his 2017 Halloween terror attack on the West Side
Highway, allegedly threatened the officer on Dec. 17 last year for repeatedly slamming a door at night, making it hard for
the ISIS follower to sleep, the filing states. "During the course of this confrontation, the defendant threatened to
kill the Officer. Indeed, as the defendant later admitted to the MCC's disciplinary committee (the 'Committee'), he
told the Officer that if the Officer dared to open the defendant's cell, in two minutes 'other guys will be picking up your
dead body,'" the filing states.
Accused
'Diversity Visa' ISIS Murderer: 'I Am Following Orders of Allah'. The Islamic State (ISIS) terror
suspect — who came to the United States on the "Diversity Visa Lottery" — accused of murdering eight
people in New York City, said in court he is "following orders of Allah." In October 2017, 31-year-old Uzbek national
Sayfullo Saipov allegedly mowed down eight individuals in the Tribeca neighborhood of New York City after securing a visa in
2010 through the Diversity Visa Lottery, which President Trump has asked Congress to end.
Accused
bike-path terrorist Sayfullo Saipov tells judge he only answers to Allah. Accused bike path terrorist Sayfullo
Saipov told a Manhattan federal court judge Monday [11/18/2019] he doesn't respect his authority — while
prosecutors said they want to empanel an anonymous jury to oversee the death penalty case. "The orders issued here have
nothing to do with me," Saipov told Judge Vernon Broderick through an Uzbek interpreter. "I am following orders of
Allah, who gave me life." The comments followed a hearing regarding jury selection ahead of the alleged ISIS militant's
trial for driving a truck down a crowded bike path on Halloween 2017, killing eight people.
Accused
Hudson River bike path terrorist Sayfullo Saipov was under government surveillance 'for years'. The ISIS
sympathizer accused of killing eight people in the Hudson River bike path attack was under government surveillance "for
years," according to new court papers. The revelation included in a heavily redacted filing in Manhattan Federal Court
from Sayfullo Saipov's defense team raises questions about whether the government could have done more to prevent the alleged
act of terrorism by the unhinged Uzbek.
Caliphate of the Mind.
The Islamic State's self-declared caliphate may be all but dead and buried in Iraq and Syria, but it thrives in the minds of
the frustrated faithful like Sayfullo Saipov, the 29-year-old Muslim immigrant from Uzbekistan, who self-radicalized in
America, police say, and decided a year ago to bring the jihad home. [...] Filled with new and stunning details about New
York's worst terrorist attack since 9/11, the federal complaint sheds new light on the mind of a volunteer member of the
global jihad. After being read his Miranda rights, Saipov not only confessed that he was inspired to act in the
name of the Islamic State but also boasted that he "felt good" about his carnage. Had he not been forced to leave the
rental van after colliding with a school bus, he had intended to continue on to the Brooklyn Bridge, where he would have killed
more people. He asked that an ISIS flag be hung in his hospital room, the complaint states, a request the police ignored.
New York to ISIS:
Keep Killing Us! We're Resilient! There's a Southern saying for hypocrites like Bill de Blasio: he's slimier than a bowl of
boiled okra. The mayor began with a phony request to be allowed "to be frank" and, with a mask-like expression, stated the obvious: "It was
an act of terror." He used the word "terror" once, and never said "Islamic," "ISIS," "terrorist," "terrorism," or "war," but he employed the vague,
minimizing terms "tragedy" and "loss" for the rest of his remarks. Cue the firm resolve face: "We know that this action was intended to break
our spirit." No, Billy, your words are intended to break our spirit; Saipov intended the glory of killing as many infidels as possible.
De Blasio continued, "But we also know New Yorkers are strong. New Yorkers are resilient. Our spirit will never be moved by an act of
violence, an act meant to intimidate us." Remaining unmoved when religious fanatics are slaughtering you is not resilience; it is mental illness.
Trump
calls for end to diversity visa program. President Trump and some of his allies on the far right have found a
new culprit in Tuesday's deadly terrorist attack in Manhattan: Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.).
As details emerged about the incident, prominent right-wing commentators and news outlets seized on a report from New York's
ABC affiliate that the alleged attacker, Sayfullo Saipov, had come to the United States from Uzbekistan under a State
Department program known as the Diversity Visa Lottery.
The Fatal Folly of
Diversity. Diversity refers not to a variety of ideas, as any conservative speaker trying to deliver a lecture on a college
campus can attest, but instead to identity markers of skin color, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual preference, traits which most Americans
see through without discrimination. As Martin Luther King, Jr. spoke of judging people by the content of their character, not the
color of their skin. Diversity apparently applies to immigration too, specifically the Diversity Visa Lottery. Something most
Americans didn't even realize existed until last week's Manhattan terrorist attack. The terrorist entering the U.S. from Uzbekistan
via this so-called lottery. Seeing how this played out suggests that this isn't a lottery, instead a game of Russian roulette.
Spin the cylinder and take your chances as to whether a law-abiding, productive citizen comes out of the gun or a radical Islamic terrorist.
Libs think you're Stupid. Are
You? In New York City, another metropolis ruled by Democrats who make it impossible for good citizens to get
legal guns, an Isis fan just used a truck to mow down and kill bike riders and pedestrians. Turns out this militant had
been questioned by Comey's ineffectual FBI in 2015 but as usual couldn't find enough to charge him. Seems also that
this jihadist came here under a ridiculous program initiated by Democrats, of course, that allowed immigrants to come here
permanently by lottery and this killer from Uzbekistan brought in 23 family members. The only thing we really know
about Uzbekistan is that its major religion is Islam. Ah diversity. Don't you love it?
New
York City Terror Victims lost Chuck Schumer's "Diversity Lottery". Maybe now, Democratic liberals will see the
folly of giving illegal aliens drivers licenses on the false premise that it makes us all safer. And maybe liberal
judges from Hawaii will think again about the wisdom of Trump's travel ban and desire to switch to a merit-based immigration
system. Sayfullo Saipov was not an illegal alien and his home country of Uzbekistan was not on the travel ban list of
countries, but his presence here to kill and maim American citizens speaks to another idiotic immigration program —
the diversity visa lottery created by the same Sen. Chuck Schumer who cried about the cruelty of Trump's travel ban
amidst a bevy of aliens from central casting.
Cultural
Marxism and its discontents. Sayfullo Saipov, a 29-year-old Uzbekistan native living in New Jersey, yelled
"Allahu akbar" while mowing down 20 people, killing at least eight on a bike path in lower Manhattan. He came to the
U.S. in 2010 via the "diversity lottery" system created as part of the Immigration Act of 1990. Officials say he was
"radicalized" by ISIS after moving to the U.S. As President Trump rightly noted, Sen. Charles Schumer, New York
Democrat, was a prime backer of the diversity program, in which 50,000 foreigners are admitted annually in a lottery.
It doesn't matter whether they love America or hate it.
How Leftism Makes Us Stupid.
Perhaps the worst thing about having an exclusively leftist media is that it makes all of us, right and left, stupider.
Take for example that media's reaction to the latest Islamist terror attack in Manhattan. Evil loser Sayfullo Saipov
follows the ISIS playbook by driving a rented van over innocent civilians, killing eight. He jumps out of the van
shouting "Allahu Akbar!" (Allah is the greatest) and later tells police he's glad about what he did and requests an ISIS flag
in his hospital room. In reporting the event, CNN Crime and Justice reporter Shimon Prokupecz refused to share the police
description of the killer after he was caught. Because he's a journalist, and the last thing we want is to have journalists
going around giving people information! CNN's Jake Tapper responded to news of the loser's Arabic shout by remarking inanely
that Allahu Akbar is "sometimes said under the most beautiful of circumstances, and too often we hear it being said in moments
like this." He later clarified that he was referring to beautiful circumstances like weddings and births. Yeah, what
if the guy had been waving a Confederate flag? They wear those at some weddings too. [...] None of which is to make fun
of a tragedy, of course, but only of the absurd reaction of the leftist press.
Trump Calls For Immediate End to Diversity
Visa Lottery Which Brought Terrorist Into America. President Trump said Wednesday [11/1/2017] he's starting the
process immediately to terminate Senator Chuck Schumer's Diversity Visa Lottery program which brought the Manhattan terrorist
into America. "I am today starting the process of terminating the diversity lottery program. I am going to ask
Congress to immediately...get rid of this program," Trump said, calling the suspect an "animal." "Diversity lottery —
sounds nice, it's not nice. It's not good. It hasn't been good," he said. "We want people that are going to help
our country, we want people that are going to keep our country safe," Trump said. "We don't want lotteries where the wrong
people are in the lotteries and guess what? Who are the suckers that get those people? We want a merit-based system."
They never said anything to the cops, of course, but...
Manhattan
terrorist's sister says the family became concerned when he started growing out his beard. The sister of an Uzbek immigrant
accused of killing eight people in New York said her brother might have been brainwashed and appealed to U.S. President Donald Trump on
Friday [11/3/2017] to ensure he gets a fair trial. Sayfullo Saipov, 29, was charged in a federal court on Wednesday with driving a
rented pickup truck down a riverside bike trail, crushing pedestrians and cyclists, in support of Islamic State. As well as those
killed, a dozen people were injured in the city's bloodiest single attack since Sept. 11, 2001. Trump has called for Saipov
to receive the death penalty.
Jihad
Rears Its Head Again, with Democrats Enabling. Tuesday [10/31/2017] in New York City, Sayfullo Saipov, a 29-year-old Uzbek
immigrant and jihadist, plowed a rented truck into bicyclists and pedestrians, killing eight and seriously injuring "numerous" others.
The response from leading New York Democrats was sickeningly rote. It was saturated with political correctness — hence, deceptive.
Deceptive, therefore cynical. If not stopped, Democrats' P.C. will keep killing Americans. Democrats enable jihad on these shores.
Their worldview, policies, and steadfast denial of the long-term war being waged by Muslim fundamentalists are costing lives — San
Bernardino, Orlando, now Manhattan, to name marquee attacks. It puts Americans across the nation at risk daily.
NYPD
Suspected NYC Jihadi's Local Mosque of Terror Ties over a Decade Before Massacre. The NYPD had suspected New
Jersey's Masjid Omar Mosque, where jihadist Sayfullo Saipov reportedly worshipped, of having radical ties for over 10 years,
allegedly keeping all its worshippers under watch. Moreover, the FBI, which claims it had nothing to do with monitoring
the mosque, interviewed Saipov as a potential Islamic terrorist in 2015, but ultimately let him go. On Tuesday, Uzbek national
Saipov killed eight people and injured at least 11 in a vehicle attack on the West Side of Manhattan on Tuesday [10/31/2017].
ISIS
Claims N.Y. Attack by 'One of the Soldiers of the Islamic State of America'. The Islamic State made its first
official acknowledgement of the Halloween attack on the West Side bike path in Manhattan, calling terror suspect Sayfullo
Saipov "one of the soldiers of the Islamic State of America" in their weekly newsletter released today [11/2/2017]. ISIS
lauded the attack in al-Naba, an Arabic-language 16-page color newsletter distributed within ISIS territory and online
as a PDF. Instead of being buried in the news briefs in the back of the issue, where ISIS recently touted the death toll and
damages in California wildfires, the New York news was nestled next to the editor's note on page 3. Without mentioning
Saipov by name, ISIS said the attacker killed "a number of crusaders on a street in New York City" close to the site of the
"Battle of 11 September."
Jihadism's E-Z Pass to New York. After Tuesday's
[10/31/2017] terrorist attack, the useless pols of New York quickly assembled before the cameras to recite the usual litany of politically correct
talking points. Looking like a lost giraffe, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio stepped up to the microphone and said that "the last thing we should
do is start casting dispersions" on Islam. That moment of illiteracy was then followed by a burst of illogic, as he argued that the proper response
to Islamic terrorism in a tolerant country is even more tolerance. "Anyone who wants to come into this country should be very thoroughly vetted as
an individual," he said. "But the minute you start generalizing it, especially to a whole religion, then unfortunately we're sending the exact
negative message that a lot of our enemies want and the terrorists wants to affirm — that this nation is somehow anti-Muslim. We've got to do
the exact opposite. We've got to show we respect all people in America." In other words, let's prioritize political correctness over safety and
propaganda over truth.
Trump
Reveals NYC Terror Suspect Brought 23 Others To U.S. After Winning Green Card Lottery. At a Cabinet meeting
Wednesday afternoon at the White House, President Donald Trump revealed that NYC terror suspect Sayfullo Saipov may have been
able to help as many as 23 other individuals migrate to the United States, as part of a "chain migration" that began when
Saipov was awarded a green card. "This man that came in — or whatever you want to call him — brought in,
with him, other people," the President said amidst a discussion of proposed changes to immigration policy. "And he was a point,
he was the point of contact — the primary point of contact for, and this is preliminarily — 23 people that
came in, or potentially came in with him." "And that's not acceptable," Trump continued.
New

investigation and a friend to aggressor, Sayfullo Saipov, told the Associated Press in a statement Thursday: 'This not from
our religion, it is not acceptable.' The married father of two toddler-aged children revealed he was heartsick over the
tragedy, while among other members of the Muslim community who completely 'reject' the actions of Saipov. Kadirov was
found by the FBI Wednesday nearly an hour and a half after a poster was shared, seeking further information on him.
WSJ
Reporter Rips Trump For Not Calling for Death Penalty for (Already Dead) Vegas Shooter. In making a point about
the difference between President Donald Trump's reaction to the Las Vegas shooting and the NYC terror attack, WSJ
reporter Eli Stokols made a pretty obvious mistake by questioning why Trump didn't demand the death penalty for the assailant
who killed 58 concert goers in last month. Stokols, an MSNBC contributor, spoke with Nicolle Wallace Thursday [11/2/2017]
about the President saying the NYC terrorist should get the death penalty. And Stokols talked about the difference in how
Trump approaches these attacks compared to others.

Details On NYC Terror Suspect Emerge: Feds Interviewed Him In 2015. According to law enforcement
officials, Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov, the 29-year-old Uzbekistan national suspected of mowing down pedestrians and
cyclists in Manhattan on Tuesday, was interviewed by Homeland Security agents two years ago about possible ties to suspected
terrorists, but the agents could not find enough to open a case on him. Officials say that the interview was conducted
in 2015 by the Department of Homeland Security Investigations Unit, which was looking into Saipov's possible terror
connections. "Saipov's name and address was listed as a 'point of contact' for two different men whose names were
entered into the Counterterrorism and Criminal Exploitation Unit's list after they came to the United States from 'threat
countries,'" ABC News reports, citing an unnamed federal official. ABC reports that one of the two men has disappeared
and is now being sought as a "suspected terrorist."
Authorities
seek Uzbek national as person of interest in NYC terror attack. The FBI put out a wanted poster for an Uzbek
national labelled a "person of interest" in Tuesday's terror attack — but called off the search an hour
later. "We believed he had information related to yesterday. But we are not looking for that individual any
longer," FBI honcho Bill Sweeney said Wednesday evening. "We have found him and I'll leave it at that." The agency
had earlier issued the poster for Mukhammadzoir Kadirov, 32, saying it was seeking information about him.
NYC
terror attack suspect asked to display an ISIS flag in his hospital room. Sayfullo Saipov, the suspect charged
in Tuesday's deadly terror attack in New York City, asked law enforcement during an interview if he could display an Islamic
State flag in his hospital room. According to a criminal complaint filed Wednesday, Saipov asked to display the flag
because he felt "good" about what he did, adding that he was considering displaying the flag on his truck but decided it
would draw too much attention.
What
If Home Depot Had Refused To Rent A Truck To Sayfullo Saipov? John Miller, NYPD deputy commissioner of intelligence and
counterterrorism, said Wednesday: "We did extensive outreach to the truck rental business. We visited over 148 truck rental
locations in this area. The industry has had a high level of awareness on this matter from the NYPD." And "Miller said that
if a company is suspicious of a would-be renter, they usually delay or simply deny a rental to let police investigate." Really?
The companies deny rentals to suspicious characters? Is that so? Sayfullo Saipov, the New York City truck jihad mass murderer,
looks like a jihadi. But to acknowledge that would be to engage in racial profiling, and given the decidedly Islamic style of his
facial hair (a hadith depicts Muhammad telling Muslims to trim their mustaches but not their beards, because the Jews and Christians trim
their beards but not their mustaches), religious profiling, a manifestation of "Islamophobia," as well.
Yet
Another Radical Islamic Terror Attack That Could Have Been Prevented. It didn't take long before we learned that
the alleged New York terrorist who plowed into pedestrians in a well-planned attack that killed eight had been on the government's
radar. That makes 10 terror attacks over the past eight years carried out by Islamic extremists "known to authorities."
Vehicular
Jihad Comes To Manhattan. In lower Manhattan on Tuesday afternoon, a Muslim named Sayfullo Saipov, screaming
"Allah akbar," drove a rented truck along a bicycle path, killing at least eight people and injuring numerous others.
According to Al Arabiya, "New York state governor Andrew Cuomo told media that there is no evidence to suggest wider plot or
wider scheme." And Time.com reported that Cuomo said that there was no "evidence of an ongoing threat or any additional
threat." No evidence to suggest a wider plot or an ongoing threat? Really, Governor? Here's some: last
June, the Islamic State published a poster depicting an SUV driving over a heap of skulls and bearing the legend "Run Over Them
Without Mercy."
Graham:
NYC Terrorist Must Be Declared an 'Enemy Combatant Under the Law of War'. Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said
a terrorist who mowed down more than 20 people with a truck in New York City must be held as an "enemy combatant," not as a
common criminal. He told Shannon Bream on "Fox News @ Night" that 29-year-old Uzbek immigrant Sayfullo Saipov should be
held by U.S. intelligence for as long as necessary to figure out whether he was part of a broader ISIS plot and to examine
his past contacts. "The last thing that I want this guy to hear tonight is, 'You have the right to a lawyer.' The
last thing he should hear is his Miranda rights. I've been a military lawyer for 33 years. There is enough
evidence to believe that he qualifies as an enemy combatant under the law of war," said Graham.
Feds
interviewed suspected NYC truck attacker in 2015 about possible terror ties. Sayfullo Saipov, who has been charged
with killing eight people in a vehicle attack on the West Side of Manhattan on Tuesday, was interviewed in 2015 by federal agents
about possible ties to suspected terrorists but a case was never opened against him, law enforcement officials tell ABC News.
Saipov was listed as a "point of contact" for two men whose were listed in a Department of Homeland Security counterterrorism
database and later overstayed their tourist visas, a federal official told ABC News. One was flagged after arriving from
a so-called "threat country," while the other vanished and was being actively sought by federal agents as a "suspected
terrorist." An official told ABC News that the FBI has since located him and he is not believed to have been involved in
Tuesday's attack.
McCain
Calls NYC Attack an 'Act of War': Terrorist 'Should Not be Read Miranda Rights'. Following the deadliest
terrorist attack in New York since 9/11, Senator John McCain of Arizona released a statement declaring it an "act of war."
The Senate Armed Services Committee chairman also said the attacker should be treated as enemy combatant and is not entitled
to Miranda rights. He published the following press release in response to the eight Americans who were killed and the
numerous who were wounded yesterday afternoon [10/31/2017].
Bloodbath in
downtown NYC after truck driver runs over pedestrians. A terrorist in a rental truck sped for nearly a mile
down a popular bike-only path in lower Manhattan on Tuesday — killing eight people in the shadow of the World
Trade Center and then shouting, "Allahu Akbar." "This was an act of terror," Mayor Bill de Blasio declared at an evening
press conference. "A particularly cowardly act of terror aimed at innocent civilians, aimed at innocent people going
about their lives." Sayfullo Saipov, a 29-year-old immigrant from Uzbekistan, was shot by a cop after getting out of his
car at Chambers and West streets with two realistic-looking guns while screaming "Allahu Akbar" — Arabic for "God
is great," police sources said.
Watch:
CNN Falsely Claims That Terrorist Said "God Is Great" Instead Of "Allahu Akbar". CNN falsely reported on
Tuesday that the Islamic terrorist who attacked and murdered innocent civilians in New York City shouted, "God is Great,"
instead of what he is alleged to have actually said: "Allahu Akbar." Sayfullo Saipov, 29, is the alleged
terrorist who yelled "Allahu Akbar" — "God is greater" (superlative) [sic - comparative] and in Arabic —
as he got out of his truck, after he ran over multiple pedestrians, the New York Post reported. However, on CNN's The
Situation Room with host Wolf Blitzer, the left-leaning news network chose to distort what Saipov said — claiming on
their banner that he said "God is Great" in Arabic.
Terror
suspect in NYC truck attack had pledged allegiance to ISIS. The driver who plowed into a group of people on
Tuesday, killing eight, left behind handwritten notes pledging loyalty to ISIS along with an image of an ISIS flag inside his
vehicle. Sayfullo Saipov, 29, had the notes written in Arabic inside his Home Depot rental truck along with a picture
of the ISIS flag, according to law enforcement sources. The handwritten notes indicated that he had pledged allegiance
to the terror group, the sources said.
Uber:
New York truck attack suspect passed background check. Uber says it's in contact with the FBI after it emerged
that the suspect in the deadly truck attack in New York City was one of the company's drivers. Sayfullo Habibullaevic
Saipov, originally from Uzbekistan, has been living in the U.S. since 2010, law enforcement sources told CNN. Uber said he
started driving for the ride-hailing app in New Jersey just over six months ago. The 29-year-old is accused of using a
rented pickup truck to mow down cyclists on a busy bike path near the World Trade Center in Manhattan on Tuesday. He
was shot and detained by police.
I'm
not celebrating diversity visas. Does America owe everyone in the world a lottery ticket chance to gain entry
to our homeland? Sayfullo Saipov, the jihadi who mowed down bikers and pedestrians in New York City, shouting "Allahu akbar!"
("Allah is supreme!") before being shot and captured, was in this country thanks to the Diversity Visa Process that operates as
if our first duty is to make sure everyone has a shot at immigrating here, instead of picking who will benefit Americans.
Reform Islam or
Live the 'New Normal' Forever. Two of the more repugnant Americans today are the moral narcissist judges from
Maryland (Theodore Chuang) and Hawaii (Derrick Watson) who tried to upend Donald Trump's travel ban. They have
metaphorical blood on their robes, whether they know it or not. The fact is the travel ban is insufficient, not
illegal. It's only a meager beginning in dealing with a situation that has not changed in any real sense since 9/11, as
the events in New York Tuesday testify. If we do not move even more seriously to prevent them, they will indeed become
the "new normal." Globally, they already have. The ISIS-loving psycho killer who murdered eight and crippled more,
Sayfullo Saipov, is from Uzbekistan, which is not on the banned list. Not only that, he was admitted to the U.S. via
something called the Diversity (yes, that word again) Visa Program, a blind lottery system that seems more like Russian
roulette for existing citizens. Spin the wheel and admit a mass murderer for Allah.
NYC
terror attack leaves 8 dead, several injured; suspect's notes pledged ISIS loyalty. The man accused of plowing
into New York pedestrians Tuesday had a printout of an ISIS flag in his car and left behind handwritten notes pledging his
loyalty to the Islamic State, as a clearer picture emerged Wednesday morning of Sayfullo Saipov's alleged links to the terror
group. Saipov, 29, is originally from Uzbekistan and is not a U.S. citizen, federal law enforcement sources have
confirmed to Fox News.
Report:
NYC Foreign Terror Suspect Entered U.S. with 'Diversity Visa' Trump Wants to End. The suspected foreign
national terrorist behind the New York City attack that has left at least eight individuals dead came to the United States
years ago through the Diversity Visa Lottery, a program that President Trump and pro-American immigration reformers have
demanded an end to. According to ABC New York, 29-year-old Sayfullo Saipov — the man who allegedly mowed
down pedestrians in the Tribeca neighborhood of New York City — entered the U.S. in 2010 from Uzbekistan under the
Diversity Visa Lottery before obtaining a Green Card.
New
York City terror attack suspect had note that referenced ISIS. The suspect in the terror attack in New York
that left eight people dead and another 12 injured left a note that referenced the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), a
federal law enforcement source confirmed to CBS News. CBS News has learned Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov, 29, is the
suspect in the attack, which New York City officials describe as an act of terror.
Chris
Matthews is baffled why an Uzbeki would want to attack us. Chris Matthews has put in a strong entry for the title of
stupidest reaction to the Halloween jihad massacre in Lower Manhattan. Was there a memo at NBC News that forbade any mention
of Islam or Jihad in discussing Sayfullo Saipov? Or is Matthews really that stupid? Was this madness passed down from
the suits at 30 Rock? Or does Chris Matthews wear such huge blinders that he can't connect the dots and see that this
attack is like Barcelona, Nice, and several other examples of jihadis renting trucks and mowing down infidels?
Obama's
Tweet On Terror Attack Leaves Out Key Detail. Former President Barack Obama tweeted about Tuesday's [10/31/2017]
New York City terror attack, and noticeably left out a major point concerning the nature of the incident. Obama made no
mention of the word "terror" or "terrorist" and simply referred to Tuesday's events as "today's attack."
Terror
suspect was rude customer at local supermarket. The driver who mowed down people with a truck in Manhattan,
killing 8, was known as an "erratic" customer who berated the cashiers at his local supermarket. Sayfullo Saipov, 29,
was notorious for his behavior at the Farm Boy Super Fresh Supermarket on Getty avenue in Paterson, NJ, the manager
said. "Every time he came here he was always erratic or arguing with the cashiers," she told The Post about the terror
killer. "He would get angry very fast... he would break the cans, dumb things." The manager, who declined to give
her name, said Saipov was very rude to the cashiers, and called them "uneducated."
London
October 7, 2017
Cab
slams into pedestrians, injuring 11, police say it isn't (Islamic) terrorism, then decide to keep an open mind, driver was
laughing. British emergency services raced to London's Natural History Museum after a cab driver plowed into
pedestrians on sidewalk outside the building leaving 11 people injured. A photo shared on social media shows a man
being restrained by four people. Police first ruled out terror before later reversing their position and saying they
were "keeping an open mind."
London
police release man held after 11 hurt in crash outside Natural History Museum. A 47-year-old man arrested after
a car rammed into a group of people outside the Natural History Museum in London was released Sunday but still remains "under
investigation," authorities said. London's Metropolitan Police said the man has not been charged, and has been released
while an investigation continues.
Driver
'deliberately mows down pedestrians' after mounting the pavement outside London's Natural History Museum. Pixie
Lott's fiance told how he pinned down a taxi driver who had injured 11 people after mounting a pavement and running over
pedestrians outside London's Natural History Museum. Model Oliver Cheshire, 29, was sat in his Jaguar in Kensington
when the man, said to be an Uber driver, ploughed into his vehicle. He immediately leapt into action and helped
apprehend the man, who he said was screaming on the ground. Police have tonight [10/7/2017] ruled out terrorism and
described the crash as a 'road traffic incident'.
Police:
Car crash in London is traffic accident, not terror. A car crash that injured 11 people outside a major
London tourist attraction Saturday [10/7/2017] of a terrorist attack but turned out to be simply a traffic accident, London
police said. The accident at 2:20 p.m. outside the popular Natural History Museum in the heart of central London
brought a gigantic police response, including helicopters and hazardous area response teams, because of terrorist concerns.
Las Vegas
October 4, 2017
Editor's Note:
Weeks after this incident, there is still no official explanation of the shooter's motive.
Much of the modus operandi points to an act of Islamic terrorism: First of all, it's Las Vegas,
also known as Sin City, where drunkenness, immorality, prostitution, gambling, smoking, revelry, hedonism,
and unaccompanied young ladies in public after dark have been promoted for decades. In other words,
everything that offends Muslims is gathered in one place. Second, an Islamic terrorist organization claimed
responsibility for the attack, which they never do without having some involvement. Third, the official
explanation and timeline change every few days, and one of the key witnesses has disappeared went
into hiding for a while. Therefore if one is to jump to a conclusion, the shortest jump leads to Islamic terrorism.
Top 10 Iconic
Events Of The Last Decade. [#3] Mass Shooting In Las Vegas: [...] Investigation into Paddock's history revealed
that he was a frequent gambler who liked to place bets that would see him earn rewards such as free food and
accommodation. It was also established that he was somewhat of an alcoholic and that his father was a criminal wanted
by the FBI. It seemed that Paddock simply wanted to murder a lot of people without any obvious reason as it was found that he
researched other venues in Boston and Chicago before deciding on Las Vegas. Naturally many conspiracy theories saw the
light after the massacre including accusations of a false flag event and rumors of a second shooter that was never brought to
book. Other theories linked Paddock to the Antifa movement while ISIS falsely claimed that he was one of their
"soldiers". Some believe that there were a group of shooters but that this is being covered up in order to advance the
promotion of gun control laws. It is very likely that the true motive for the senseless massacre will never be
discovered. To date this was the worst mass shooting carried out by one person in the history of the US.
On
the Two Year Anniversary of the Las Vegas Shooting, There Are Still No Answers. It is the two-year anniversary
of the Las Vegas shooting today [10/1/2019] , allegedly perpetrated by lone gunman Stephen Paddock, and there has been no
evidence produced publicly to validate the official story. 58 people were murdered in the slaughter, with an additional
900 being injured as a result of the attack, which allegedly happened from the Mandalay Bay hotel to the Route 91 Harvest
music festival on October 1, 2017. Investigators would give no motive for Paddock's actions and withhold the video evidence
from public scrutiny. A former high-level law enforcement official told Big League Politics last year that it was possibly a
joint ANTIFA-ISIS terrorist attack. With the way the feds are known to protect ANTIFA from consequences from their violent
actions, it is not a far-fetched notion.
30
of The Biggest Lies & Hoaxes Perpetrated on The American People. [#27] Gun Control & False Flags: Disgustingly,
there have been orchestrated shootings so as to fuel the need for "gun control." Of course, there are disturbed
individuals out there, but when people can begin to predict when shootings will happen based upon timing of key events taking
place, something is awry. And, when seconds following these events, all the usual suspects begin yelling "gun control"
right on cue, that too is very telling. [...] Now keep in mind, any shootings that were "false flag" events, does not mean that
people did not get injured or die. It means the event was orchestrated to serve an agenda. It's sick. These folks
went above and beyond to bury the facts on the Las Vegas shooting, from law enforcement to the FBI on up — buried.
The
Las Vegas Mass Murderer's Motive: A Psychoanalyst Explains. On October 1, 2017, America was stunned by
the horrible mass murder in Las Vegas. The lengthy search for the murder's motive most likely ends in the bitter
unconscious severe neurotic conflicts of Stephen Paddock's troubled mind. His obsessive-compulsively planned mass
murder seemed intended to make his father's life of petty crime look like peanuts in comparison. Psychodynamically,
Paddock's horrendous act was an ultimate fantasied oedipal victory. As noted by Dave Phillips and Mathew Haag's
perceptive New York Times article of October 2, 2017, Benjamin Hoskins Paddock, Stephen Paddock's father, was a grifter,
con artist, bank robber and jail-breaker who spent years on the FBI's most wanted list.
Las
Vegas police officer who 'froze' during 2017 massacre fired by department. An armed, veteran police officer who
stood idle for several minutes as the Las Vegas gunman slaughtered dozens of concertgoers in 2017 was fired by the department
months ago, officials revealed Tuesday [7/2/2019]. Cordell Hendrex was fired March 20 from the Las Vegas Metropolitan
Police Department, spokesman Larry Hadfield told the Associated Press. While officials did not reveal additional details
on what led to Hendrex's termination, police union president Steve Grammas said the officer was fired because of his actions
during the Oct. 1, 2017 mass shooting.
FBI
doesn't find motive for Vegas mass shooting. The high-stakes gambler responsible for the deadliest mass shooting in
modern U.S. history sought notoriety in the attack but left his specific motive a mystery, the FBI said Tuesday [1/29/2019] as it
concluded the investigation of the 2017 massacre that killed 58 country music fans. While the agency found no "single or clear
motivating factor" to explain why Stephen Paddock opened fire from his suite in a high-rise casino hotel, Paddock may have been
seeking to follow in his father's criminal footsteps, the FBI said. "It wasn't about MGM, Mandalay Bay or a specific casino
or venue," Aaron Rouse, the agent in charge of the FBI's Las Vegas office, told The Associated Press. "It was all about doing
the maximum amount of damage and him obtaining some form of infamy."
FBI
Concludes Investigation Into Las Vegas Shooting, Finds No Motive. A high-stakes gambler who rained a hail of
gunfire down on a crowd of country music fans, killing 58, took to his grave any specific motive for the 2017 attack, the FBI
said Tuesday as it concluded its investigation into the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history. The agency
found no "single or clear motivating factor" to explain why Stephen Paddock opened fire from his suite in a high-rise casino
hotel. The 64-year-old, who acted alone, fatally shot himself as police closed in. "It wasn't about MGM, Mandalay
Bay or a specific casino or venue," Aaron Rouse, the agent in charge of the FBI's Las Vegas office, told the Associated
Press. "It was all about doing the maximum amount of damage and him obtaining some form of infamy."
Media & Officials Participating in Clear
Cover-up of Bullets Fired at Bellagio Hotel During Mandalay Massacre. Clear video evidence has surfaced which
indicates that the Bellagio Hotel was forced into Lockdown, sequestering hundreds of guests, as a result of bullets being
fired into the front of the hotel during the Mandalay Bay massacre. However, according to Las Vegas officials and
numerous media accounts, no mention has been made and even denials have been issued, concerning gunshots being fired into the
Bellagio hotel during the concert massacre across from Mandalay Bay. The question obviously becomes why the cover-up?
New
Las Vegas Shooting Officer Statements Challenge LVMPD "Single Shooter" Narrative. Documents released on Thursday [12/27/2018]
from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department LVMPD point to multiple shooters and a contaminated crime scene in an already controversial
investigation into the Las Vegas shooting over a year ago.
Justice
Department awards nearly $17M to aid Las Vegas shooting survivors. The US Justice Department announced Friday
an award of nearly $17 million to help survivors of the 2017 mass shooting at Las Vegas' Route 91 Harvest music
festival. Funding from the department's Office for Victims of Crime will help cover the costs of counseling, therapy,
rehabilitation, trauma recovery and legal assistance for victims of the deadliest mass shooting in US history.
Survivors covered by this award include ticket holders, concert staff, vendors, witnesses, law enforcement and other first
responders, according to a DOJ statement.

Las Vegas
Massacre: An unexplored political motive? Retired CIA Station Chief Brad Johnston notes that the many
hundreds of people who were so severely impacted by this horrific event, deserve more than this less than satisfactory
conclusion. Johnston has studied the reports and witness statements from the beginning and feels that there's at least
one trail of evidence that has not been given the follow up and attention it merits. Watch as he explains what
that is and why it might lead investigators to the "why." [Video clip]
The
Las Vegas Massacre's Missing Data. [#1] Where is the muzzle flash? While the report discusses weapons fired during the event,
it does not mention recorded imagery of muzzle flash from the 32nd-floor window where Paddock was determined to have carried out his killing spree.
Muzzle flash from weapons such as the AR-15 is one of the key indicators of shooter location, particularly in the thermal infrared, a region of the
electromagnetic spectrum extending beyond the range that the human eye can see. According to the report, Paddock used a total of 13 weapons
during the shooting (not including the pistol with which he killed himself). Even if some weapons were flash-suppressed, the incessant,
continuous, violent barrage from one location should have produced some flashes whose signatures were captured on video — even on the cell
phone camera videos taken by many individuals on the ground. Moreover, FBI forensic experts determined that some of the weapons had been
loaded with tracer ammunition, making a signature more likely to be seen on imagery. No discussion of flash or tracer signatures appears
in the document, and no explanation for the omission is provided.
Las
Vegas Hotel "Security" Enters The Big Brother Age After The Vegas Shooting. What would you do if you owned a
hotel on the Las Vegas Strip after the Vegas shooting to increase security? Why, of course... you'd perform surprise
security checks on the most paranoid group that visits there — DEF CON. Caesar's Palace in their stupidity
has allegedly implemented a practice where hotel security, using keys to the rooms there, are doing random security checks where
they enter the rooms without knocking and seize items from the rooms. And if Caesar's Palace is doing it, the rest of the
hotels on the Strip won't be far behind. Any highrise hotel will fall in line. You probably don't have to worry about
Best Westerns or Holiday Inns... yet.
Las
Vegas gunman spent $1.5M, became distant before rampage. In the months before unleashing a hail of bullets into
a Las Vegas concert crowd, Stephen Paddock burned through more than $1.5 million, became obsessed with guns and increasingly
unstable, and distanced himself from his girlfriend and family, according to an investigative report released Friday [8/3/2018].
Lawsuits
claim MGM has no liability to Las Vegas shooting victims. MGM Resorts International has filed federal lawsuits
against more than 1,000 Las Vegas mass shooting victims in an effort to avoid liability. The company, which owns Mandalay
Bay and the Route 91 Harvest festival venue, argues that it cannot be held liable for Oct. 1 deaths, injuries or
other damages, adding that any claims against MGM parties "must be dismissed," according to complaints filed Friday [7/13/2018]
in Nevada and California. "Plaintiffs have no liability of any kind to defendants," the complaints argue.
Mandalay
Bay owners sue victims of Las Vegas mass shooting. The corporate owners of the Mandalay Bay casino filed suit
against the victims of last year's Las Vegas concert mass shooting, claiming it has no liability for the massacre, according
to a published report on Monday [7/16/2018]. MGM Resorts International went to federal courts in Nevada and California and
took on more than 1,000 shooting victims, saying claims against the hotel giant "must be dismissed." "Plaintiffs have no
liability of any kind to defendants," the complaints argue, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
MGM
Sues 1,000 Victims of Mandalay Bay Shooting to Avoid Liability. The company cites a 2002 federal act that
extends liability protection to any company that uses "anti-terrorism" technology or services that can "help prevent and
respond to mass violence." They hired a certified DHS company to handle security, making them free from liability, they
claim, since they are government-backed. MGM isn't looking for money from the victims. "I've never seen a more
outrageous thing, where they sue the victims in an effort to find a judge they like," attorney Robert Eglet, who represented
some of the victims, told the Review-Journal, accusing MGM of "judge-shopping" in federal court, rather than state court
where he believes any lawsuits should be filed. "It's just really sad that they would stoop to this level."
MGM
Resorts International Sues Victims Of Vegas Mass Shooting. Nine months after the horrific mass shooting at a
Las Vegas concert venue, MGM is actually suing the victims of the attack. MGM Resorts International has filed a
complaint against more than 1000 individual victims in an attempt to seek relief from the lawsuits of victims claiming the
resort is partially liable for Stephen Paddock's murder spree in October of 2017. [...] Mandalay Bay and it's parent company
are under extreme scrutiny after it was revealed that it took security and SWAT nearly 80 minutes to reach Paddock's
room. Litigants hold MGM responsible for the slow response and inadequate surveillance and security.
Thick
hotel walls, an inundated dispatch and too many officers trying to transmit at once. During the deadliest
shooting in modern American history, first responders inside and in the vicinity of the Mandalay Bay hotel in Las Vegas faced
a slew of radio communication issues, it has been revealed. Metropolitan Police officers were unable to communicate
directly with EMS, with their only line of communication being a peripheral police radio channel, all while dispatchers were
fielding a surge of reports. Inside the hotel hallways, 'thick walls' of the hotel caused radio service to cut
in-and-out, and it was very difficult for officers to communicate with the main command post located within the hotel.

Vegas
Docs Reveal Stephen Paddock Told Uber Driver About A "Terrorist Attack For Mandalay Bay". A witness statement
that is part of a batch of newly released police documents concerning the Las Vegas shooting reveals that in the days before
the Las Vegas shooting, Stephen Paddock and a woman were picked up by an Uber driver who said Paddock "commented on the
Mandalay Bay Area for a terrorist attack" as he was being dropped off at the Mandalay Bay. The witness statement is one
of many previously unspoken statements that were released nearly one week ago after a judge ordered them to be released.
This appears to be off-topic — until the last sentence:
The
Left Has Created A Cottage Industry From the Deaths of Children. More details about the incident are sure to be
made public in the coming hours and days, but we'll take a wild guess here: White, male student, considered a loner,
possibly already on the radar of local law enforcement, and almost certainly under the influence of prescription drugs
in the SSRI class. Why do I feel so confident about making this assumption? Simply because this has been the M.O.
of nearly every mass shooter in American history since the advent of antidepressants, (which is pretty much every mass
shooter in American history). One of the few exceptions to this rule was Stephen Paddock of Las Vegas infamy, whose
timeline and history have been an oddly well-guarded secret among local law enforcement.
Police
release body cam footage from Las Vegas Massacre. Las Vegas police have finally released partial footage from
police body cameras that showed officers entering and combing through the hotel room where gunman Stephen Paddock unleashed a
hail of gunfire on concert-goers last October. The video released on Wednesday came from officers Sgt. Joshua
Bitsko and David Newton, the Las Vegas Journal-Review reported. The first officer to enter the room, Levi Hancock, did
not activate his body camera, for reasons that remain unknown to investigators.
The Editor says...
Right. Or maybe his body camera was turned on, and it showed something we're not supposed to see, and the footage was
destroyed. That would help to explain why it took six months and a court order to get any of the body camera footage released.
Otherwise, why all the secrecy and delays?
Supreme
Court orders release of audio, video from Las Vegas shooting massacre. The Nevada Supreme Court on Friday
[4/27/2018] ruled that the Metropolitan Police Department must begin releasing body camera footage and 911 call audio from
the Las Vegas mass shooting. "The speed with which the Supreme Court made this decision reflects the complete absence
of merit in the Metropolitan Police Department's arguments," Review-Journal Executive Editor Glenn Cook said Friday
[4/27/2018]. A Clark County judge ruled in February that Metro had 30 days to hand over all the records, which
were requested days after the Oct. 1 shooting. But Metro contested it would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars
and take much longer to produce the footage and audio.
Vegas
Mole Hunted by Rogue FBI Brass; Death Threats Made to True Pundit over Mandalay Bay Investigative Series. The
rogue faction of the FBI — leftover disciples of the Andrew McCabe-school of federal law enforcement —
have waged a manhunt to find FBI personnel who are leaking REAL details about the Mandalay Bay massacre to independent news
media. You might think the FBI would spend its time running down leads to pinpoint the details of the Las Vegas
shooting spree that claimed the lives of 58 people and injured 500 more. Not so. But it is imperative to
understand the two FBIs at play in Las Vegas right now, One faction comprises the rank-and-file FBI who are working
diligently to run down leads on Stephen Paddock and who helped him. And he did have help, The other faction at work are
upper-echelon FBI who are trying to control and curate a carefully-constructed narrative: Paddock was a lone wolf, a
mystery man who has stumped law enforcement. Even the Deep State's house organ, the New York Times was employed to try
and stop the bleeding this week of the faulty official narrative.
Key
Forensic Evidence in Las Vegas Shooting Sidestepped; FBI Brass Applauded Ignorance While Loved Ones Buried Their
Dead. The FBI and the Las Vegas Metro Police Department did not follow credible leads revealing the distinct
possibility of another shooter working inside the hotel suite alongside Stephen Paddock, FBI insiders and intelligence
officials confirm. When FBI brass was provided with forensic evidence of multiple gunmen, they told agents to stand
down and focus on Stephen Paddock only. Even a key video captured by a hotel guest of multiple rifles firing from
Mandalay Bay went ignored, covered up. The troubling debate among veteran FBI agents and intelligence experts isn't
the question of whether there were multiple shooters during the Las Vegas massacre in October.
Police
can't charge 'exhorbitant' fees for Vegas massacre info, judge rules. The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police
Department has every right to try and recoup costs for providing the media with body camera videos, 911 records and written
reports in connection with the city's Oct. 1 massacre, a judge has decided. But police cannot charge "exhorbitant
fees," such as the range of $233,750 to $458,159 the department has estimated for making such data available, Clark County
District Judge Richard Scotti ruled Friday [3/9/2018].
The
Vegas Massacre Exposé: What Really Happened? The Vegas Massacre is clearly the new "JFK Murder
Conspiracy" updated for the 21st century. The whole story stinks to high heaven. It's rancid. Clearly, our
own government, FBI and Las Vegas police are involved in some sort of cover-up. The question is — what are
they covering up? [...] How did an overweight, out of shape, 60-year old, anonymous guy (on no one's radar) with no military
training and no military or law enforcement history become Rambo overnight? He carried out this plot with no help?
Got hundreds of pounds of weapons to his room? He broke open a hurricane-strength 800- pound window? [...] Second, the
Vegas Massacre had the M/O of several previous ISIS attacks. They seem to enjoy attacking concerts and hotels.
See the Paris nightclub concert and Manchester Arianna Grande concert. Not to mention numerous hotels attacks throughout
the world. [...] Never before in history has ISIS ever taken credit four times for any terror attack.
Court
documents identify second 'person of interest' in the Las Vegas massacre: Feds wanted to question another. An Arizona man was
questioned as a 'person of interest' by Las Vegas police over selling ammunition to the gunman who committed the deadliest mass shooting in modern
US history in October, documents released Tuesday [1/30/2018] have revealed. Douglas Haig, 55, said on Tuesday that he told ammunition to
Stephen Paddock before the lone gunman shot 59 people dead in Las Vegas in October. Days after the investigation, Haig was questioned
by police over his involvement in the shooting.
2nd
Person Of Interest Identified In Las Vegas Massacre. Police records unsealed on Tuesday [1/30/2018] revealed the identity of an
additional person of interest in the investigation into the Las Vegas massacre, the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history. The
second person of interest, Douglas Haig, was identified in the nearly 300 pages of unsealed search warrant records.
Unnamed

unnamed suspect who occupied Mandalay Bay room 32-134, the room adjacent to Stephen Paddock's end suite (32-135), made their
escape out the front door then exited the building, according to vague details published in the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police
Department's 19 Jan. preliminary report on the 1 October mass casualty shooting which left 58 people attending
a country music concert dead.
Health
Ranger, InfoWars proven RIGHT yet again about the Las Vegas "multiple shooters" analysis. Anyone who's taken
even a cursory look at the official story of events surrounding the Las Vegas Route 91 Shooting probably already knows that
things just don't add up. But now there's even more concrete evidence that debunks the obvious inconsistencies
concerning what allegedly happened that fateful day, including proof that there were, indeed, multiple shooters, as
Natural News has long been saying. A new video by InfoWars' Rob Dew breaks it all down in simple terms,
explaining new information about the case that has emerged.

Las
Vegas Update: Irregularities Cause Story Behind Massacre To Stink To High Heaven. [Scroll down]
Over the weekend, the trickle of developments continued, with Fox News revealing Paddock had child porn his computer... but
last we knew, the hard drive to Paddock's computer was missing. Furthermore, after months of claims and explanations by
authorities that Paddock was a "lone gunman", Fox5 of Las Vegas revealed that Metro Police confirmed they're unable to
release further details on the case because "there are still suspects being investigated". Even after months of being
ignored by the mainstream media, the story still doesn't add up.
Las Vegas
shooter began to act 'strangely' leading up to carnage, girlfriend says, as motive remains a mystery. Stephen
Paddock gambled large sums of money, kept child pornography on his computer and purchased more than 55 weapons in the year
leading up to the largest mass shooting in modern American history. On Friday, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department
released an 81-page report that revealed fresh insights into the behaviors and patterns of Paddock prior to the night he opened
fire from his 32nd floor room at the Mandalay Bay on Oct. 1, killing 58 people. In all, 871 people
were injured, with 422 suffering gunshot wounds.
Vegas
Investigation Details Emerge: New Suspects, Child Porn Discovered. [Scroll down] The other piece of
the puzzle for this cockamamy cluster of conspiracies is the purported lack of evidence revealed by the FBI and local
authorities. Many internet sleuths will point to other terror incidents around the world, and the speed at which traces
of the perpetrator are released to the media. In Paddock's case, in a city with security such as Las Vegas has, there
have been no videos or Paddock entering the Mandalay Bay Hotel, loading his mobile armory onto a half dozen luggage carts,
and meticulously weaponizing his 32nd floor suite. [...] We are now hearing more tidbits than ever before in the case of
Stephan Paddock's October 1st rampage, however, and they are spawning far more questions than answers.
Las
Vegas shooter Paddock had child porn on computer, FBI investigating person of interest: sheriff. Investigators
scanning computers belonging to Las Vegas shooter Stephen Paddock found "numerous" child pornography photos, the city's
sheriff revealed Friday, adding that the FBI is looking into a person of interest in the case. Sheriff Joe Lombardo, in
his first press conference since Oct. 13, 2017, released an 81-page preliminary investigative report on the shooting Friday
that contains new photographs of Paddock's hotel suite and online searches he conducted before the attack, such as for SWAT
tactics and other potential public venue targets. Lombardo said the unnamed person of interest the FBI is looking into
is not Paddock's girlfriend, Marilou Danley, and he reiterated that authorities believe Paddock was a lone shooter.

Mandalay Bay valet receipt shows a woman using the name Marilou Danley checked Stephen Paddock's vehicle into the hotel hours

Las
Vegas Massacre Twist: 'Additional Suspects' Now Under Investigation As Sheriff Lombardo Is Contradicted Yet Again.
It's been three months since the deadliest shooting in modern U.S. history took place near the Mandalay Bay hotel in Las Vegas,
Nevada and we still know little about gunman Stephen Paddock's motives. According to local Las Vegas news outlet Metro 5,
key details surrounding the motive cannot be released because "additional suspects," are still under investigation. Sheriff
Lombardo previously claimed only one person is under investigation. Metro lawyer Nick Crosby believes information about the
additional suspects could be revealed in 60 days.
Judge
unseals search warrants in mass shooting in Las Vegas. Her fingerprints were on the ammunition. Her
casino players' card was found in his room. Investigators scoured her social media accounts and emails — one
of which he, Stephen Paddock, had access to. Marilou Danley may not have been present when Paddock unleashed a furious
barrage of bullets down on a crowd of 20,000 at a Las Vegas country music festival, killing 58 people and wounding more than
500 others, but her links to his life seemed to be everywhere. The facts about Danley were among the details revealed when
a U.S. District Court judge in Las Vegas unsealed more than 300 pages of search warrants and affidavits at the request of
several media outlets, including the Los Angeles Times. The request was unopposed by prosecutors.
1
October shooting suspect had at least seven cell phones and mobile devices. Within hours of the Route 91
massacre on Oct. 1, Las Vegas police obtained 14 search warrants connected to Stephen Paddock. News 3 obtained copies
of what isn't currently under seal and had them reviewed by retired LVMPD detective Phil Ramos. The warrants gave detectives
sweeping authority to examine the last year of Stephen Paddock's life, starting with Mandalay Bay hotel rooms 32-135, and 32-134.
"This gives them permission to search every single square inch of that hotel room," said Ramos.
Vegas
gunman's girlfriend deleted Facebook account soon after shooting, data show. The girlfriend of Las Vegas gunman
Stephen Paddock deleted her Facebook account less than an hour before police released Paddock's name, according to
reports. Marilou Danley was traveling in the Philippines on Oct. 1 when Paddock fired a barrage of shots
from his hotel room on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay resort and casino.
Las
Vegas shooter's girlfriend said she handled his ammo, helped him load magazines, unsealed docs say. The girlfriend of the
Las Vegas shooter told authorities that they would likely find her fingerprints on some of Stephen Paddock's bullets because she sometimes
assisted him in loading ammunition into magazines, court documents unsealed on Friday [1/12/2018] revealed. There was no evidence at
that time of "criminal involvement" by Marilou Danley, an Oct. 3 document showed, but it noted that investigators had not ruled out
the possibility. Officials also reportedly sought the email, Facebook and Instagram accounts of Danley, who was in the Philippines
during the Oct. 1 shooting.
Las
Vegas shooting: Hotel staff interacted with gunman more than 10 times before massacre. Mandalay Bay
Resort and Casino staff interacted with Las Vegas shooter Stephen Paddock more than 10 times in the days leading up to the
October 1 massacre that claimed 58 lives. During Paddock's stay at the hotel, room service and housekeeping "had contact
with Paddock or entered his suite more than 10 times," according to a statement sent to CNN from MGM Resorts International,
which owns the Nevada hotel. The Las Vegas Review-Journal first reported the extent of the hotel staff's interactions with
the gunman.
FBI
Agent In Charge: Report On Las Vegas Shooting Should Be Done By Anniversary. What happened in Las Vegas
on October 1, 2017, is horrific. There are no other words to describe what took place. The number of casualties,
both killed and wounded, is still staggering. Yet, we still don't have an answer to the question of just why this happened.
While the FBI Special Agent in Charge of the Las Vegas office can't promise an answer on the motive of the killer, he does say that
we can expect the report by the anniversary of the terrible attack.
FBI chief in
Nevada says motive behind Las Vegas concert massacre is still a mystery. Federal authorities continue to search
for the motive that drove a gunman to open fire on country music festival this fall, a bloody rampage that left 58 people
dead and hundreds wounded. FBI Special Agent in Charge Aaron Rouse told the Las Vegas Review-Journal on Wednesday [12/20/2017]
that investigators still couldn't say what made 64-year-old Stephen Paddock begin firing into a crowd of 22,000 at the Route 91
Harvest Festival on Oct. 1. "Ours is focusing a large part on the why, OK? Which is what everybody wants to know,"
Rouse said. He said federal authorities expected to issue a report sometime next year.
Motive
of Vegas Shooter May Take a Year to Release, Says FBI. An FBI official is now saying it may take until next
October for law enforcement to tell us why Stephen Paddock gunned down hundreds of people from a Mandalay Bay hotel window
leaving 58 dead.
All
58 victims of Las Vegas mass shooting died from gunshot wounds, many to the head, coroner says. The 58 victims
killed in the mass shooting at a country music concert on the Las Vegas Strip in October died of gunshot wounds, the Clark
County coroner reported Thursday [12/21/2017]. According to the coroner's list, 18 of the victims died of gunshot wounds
to the head and 15 were shot in the back. Four were listed as suffering "multiple gunshot wounds." The rest suffered
predominantly chest, leg and neck wounds. Stephen Paddock, the 64-year-old gunman, died by suicide — a
gunshot through the mouth, according to Coroner John Fudenberg.

The video clip is 20 minutes long, but well worth your time.
There
was more going on inside Mandalay Bay on the night of the massacre than authorities admit. Bombshell footage
that was live-streamed on the night of the massacre proves there was more going on inside the Mandalay Bay than authorities
have told the general public. According to several employees who were working inside of Mandalay Bay at the time of the
shooting, the situation was far worse than the media was reporting and there were more shooters than one. Investigative
reporter Jake Morphonios explains what really went on inside the hotel and casino that night. [Video clip]
Fact:
Helicopters were airborne behind the Mandalay Bay during the Las Vegas Shooting. If you have been following my
reports on the Las Vegas Shooting than you are likely aware of my "helicopter theory" which I presented in great detail on
"The Alex Jones Show" Halloween day. On the broadcast, I presented a portion of the information I possessed at the time
as a "theory" in order to fill in the blanks for the listening audience by explaining exactly how an advanced air assault and
extraction were indeed possible despite the fact that I already had seen enough evidence at the time to conclude in my mind
that helicopters were indeed operating within the airspace around the vicinity of the venue before, during, and after the
massacre took place.
Private
surveillance footage reveals "helicopter hovering overhead" at time of Las Vegas Massacre, FBI never asked for
tape. Footage captured by a private surveillance camera on the night of the deadliest mass shooting in modern
U.S. history reveals several shocking details which authorities have failed to investigate. The bombshell footage was
released on Fox News's "Tucker Carlson Tonight" on Friday evening and is presumed to have been captured by a nearby business's
southward facing security camera which is located approximately 780 feet due east of the venue where the Route 91
Harvest Music Festival was held on Oct. 1. The tape was given to Fox News by an attorney who represents several
shooting victims.
Vegas
Shooting Survivor Kymberley Suchomel 'Dies Suddenly,' Report Says. Kymberley Suchomel, a woman who survived the
Las Vegas mass shooting earlier this month, died suddenly this week, according to a local media report. The 28-year-old
died early Monday [10/9/2017] in her Apple Valley, California, home, said her grandmother Julie Norton. She found her
just after 8:30 a.m. when she arrived to care for her 3-year-old great-granddaughter, Scarlett. Norton thinks that
Suchomel died when her husband, Mike, left for work, reported the VV Daily Press based in Victorville, Calif.
Uninjured
Las Vegas Survivor Who Wrote of Multiple Shooters Found Dead at Home. 28 year old Kymberley Suchomel, an
uninjured survivor of the Las Vegas massacre passed away in what may be suspicious circumstances less than a week after the
event. This death has set the conspiracy world abuzz, but may in fact, be nothing more than a tragic case of a young
woman who was deeply traumatised by the events she witnessed.
Missing
Las Vegas Shooting Witness Shot Dead Outside Church. A key witness in the Las Vegas shooting massacre, who
mysteriously vanished shortly after giving a statement that conflicted with the "official" narrative, has been shot dead
outside a central Las Vegas Valley church.
7
Las Vegas Shooting Witnesses Now Dead Within 1 Month of Attack. One month on from the Las Vegas shooting massacre on
October 1st, and we still have no satisfactory answers for horrific events that took place at the Route 91 Harvest music
festival. The mainstream media has all but given up on reporting on the attacks, now that it seems as though the public
has swallowed the "lone wolf" shooter narrative, that claims Stephen Paddock acted alone in killing 59 people and injuring
hundreds more. In the month that followed the incident, a staggering seven key witnesses have died in very suspicious
circumstances.
Lawyer For Las Vegas Music Festival and Jason
Aldean, Found Dead. Orville Almon, the lawyer representing the Route 91 music festival and Jason Aldean, the
singer onstage when the Las Vegas shooting began, has been found dead. He was 66.
Route
91 massacre survivor saw brass shell casings strewn across Tropicana parking lot upon his retreat. Route 91
massacre survivor Joe Napoli retraced the path in which he and several of his colleagues took on the night of the massacre as
they fled the concert venue along with thousands of others as volley after volley of bone-rattling gunfire pierced the air
and bullets pummeled scores of innocent victims. [...] "...I saw casings right here," the witness said as he pointed at a
specific area of the parking lot. "So there were beer cans, there were empty drink cups, and there were maybe a dozen
brass inch-and-a-half to two-inch tubes spread out." "I don't know how anybody else didn't see them but we ran right
over them," he said. Napoli's testimony gives credence to other eyewitness accounts of multiple shooters.
New
Audio From The Night Of The Las Vegas Massacre Reveals That There Was "Another Active Shooter". Newly released
audio from the Clark County Fire Department has provided even more proof that there were multiple shooters during The Las
Vegas Massacre, further debunking the official narrative of a lone gunman on the 32nd floor and once again calling into
question almost every aspect of what actually happened during the worst mass shooting in American history. The audio,
released on the SoundCloud account of a local news reporter, is an almost three hour recording of transmissions between
dispatch and units on the ground amid the confusion of the mass shooting that at one point details a report that a wife of a
firefighter was actually pinned down in the Foundation Room bar on top of the Mandalay Hotel. Intellihub's Shepard
Ambellas, who has extensively reported on the entire Vegas cover-up since the beginning, recently found that at around the
1:27:54 mark of the audio file you can clearly hear dispatch describing the situation to first responders who are headed in
that direction.
Questions
remain in Las Vegas Strip shooting investigation. [For example,]
• What was the
gunman's motive?
• When did the gunman start planning his massacre?
• Where
did the gunman store all of the weapons before the shooting?
• Why did the gunman stop shooting?(Las
Vegas Review-Journal)
• Considering the gunman killed himself, why are investigators withholding so
much information about the case? Do they believe he had accomplices?
• What was the gunman
planning to do with the explosives found in his car?
• What evidence shows he might have planned to
escape?
• What exactly were the 23 guns found in the hotel suite? How many were equipped with
bump stocks? How many had been fired? How many jammed? How many rounds did he fire?
•
What else was recovered from the gunman's hotel room and his homes in Mesquite and Reno?
•
When did authorities determine the hard drive from the gunman's laptop was missing?
• Which law
enforcement agency is in charge of what parts of the investigation?
Report:
Vegas Shooter's Brother 'Bragged' About Relation To Attacker. According to a new report, Bruce Paddock, the
brother of Las Vegas shooter Stephen Paddock, bragged about the mass shooting attack. TMZ reports, "the day after
Stephen Paddock slaughtered 58 people, his brother Bruce bragged to folks at the assisted living facility, where he was
staying, that Stephen was his brother." Bruce Paddock was arrested for child porn charges last month following the
shooting. There was a warrant out for Paddock for those charges previously, but evaded getting caught by police for years.
Paddock's
girlfriend may be hiding something, sheriff suggests. Stephen Paddock's girlfriend may be hiding something from
investigators who are trying to piece together the motive behind the Las Vegas massacre, the city's sheriff suggested in a
wide-ranging interview with a local television station. Marilou Danley, who is still a person of interest in the case,
has told authorities that she never knew the attack was coming. Sheriff Joseph Lombardo, in his first TV appearance in
nearly three weeks, told KLAS that investigators he's spoken to believe this assessment is accurate. But he added that
something appears to be off about the manner in which Paddock amassed his arsenal of weapons. "There is a lot of people
that have hundreds and hundreds of guns, but for this individual to do it at a certain point in time and to do it all with
such robust action, you would think that Ms. Danley would have some information associated with that," he said.
"But currently we haven't been able to pull that out of her, if it's in her."
I guess the cops forgot to mention this when it happened — four weeks earlier.

According to the Riverside County Fire Department, their vehicle crashed into a metal gate outside their community at 10:50 p.m. on the 20000

Vegas Security Guard Fled to Mexico.
Tucker Carlson held up a document showing that Las Vegas security guard Jesus Campos fled to Mexico shortly after the largest
mass shooting in American history — now being called the crime of the century.
Jesus
Campos reportedly left the country days after Vegas massacre. Mandalay Bay security guard Jesus Campos
mysteriously left the country just days after the Las Vegas massacre, a report says. Customs and Border Patrol
documents obtained by Fox News show that the 25-year-old entered the United States from Mexico at the San Ysidro border
crossing in California — one week after the mass shooting. It's unclear how long Campos was out of the
country. The documents only show that he entered back into the US.

Tucker
Reveals Las Vegas Security Guard Left The Country Days After Shooting. Fox News host Tucker Carlson dropped a
huge new detail on the days following the deadliest mass shooting in modern American history in Las Vegas Wednesday
[10/25/2017]. [Video clip]
New
timeline in Las Vegas massacre may offer new insights. The New York Times has formed its own timeline of the
Las Vegas massacre, which places the shooting of Mandalay Bay security guard Jesus Campos about one minute into the
attack — and not before, as authorities claim. Digital investigators working for the newspaper's video unit
pieced together footage that was captured at the scene and apparently discovered that local police were wrong yet again about
what happened that night. Instead of being shot right before the assault, they claim that Campos was targeted at
10:06 p.m. — one minute after Stephen Paddock opened fire on the crowd at the Route 91 Harvest Festival.
Las
Vegas shooter's laptop missing its hard drive. A laptop computer recovered from the Las Vegas hotel room where Stephen
Paddock launched the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history was missing its hard drive, depriving investigators of a potential key
source of information on why he killed and maimed so many people, ABC News has learned. Paddock is believed to have removed the
hard drive before fatally shooting himself, and the missing device has not yet been recovered, sources told ABC News.
The
hard drive from Las Vegas gunman Stephen Paddock's laptop reportedly is missing. A laptop computer recovered
from the hotel room of the man behind the recent mass shooting in Las Vegas was missing its hard drive, according to ABC
News. ABC News on Wednesday [10/25/2017] reported that the device's state deprives investigators of a potential key
source of information about Stephen Paddock's motive for the attack. Sources told ABC News that Paddock is believed
to have removed the hard drive before fatally shooting himself during the Oct. 1 incident.
The Editor says...
Does that make sense? If you were involved in a losing gun-battle and intended to die rather than be captured,
would you take time out to remove parts from your computer, and then dispose of those parts in such a way that the
FBI couldn't find them? Does any part of this story make sense any more?
FBI-Police Cover-Up
of Mass Shooting? [Scroll down] Now, 11 days into the so-called investigation of Stephen Paddock's
heinous killing spree, the sheriff of Clark County, Nevada, and the FBI are at a likely feigned loss to explain his
motive. This is simply not believable! If I had to guess, given just the few examples of government deceit
detailed in this column, I would say that Paddock was in some way an informant or working for the local police and/or the
FBI. Given that Las Vegas is a "Mafia haven" for the gambling industry, and since Paddock was a gambler who frequented
high-end casinos and wagered large sums of money — rubbing shoulders with other gamblers and likely Mafia
figures — could it be that he was doing undercover work for law enforcement? And, if this is so, there would
indeed be a strong motive for the local police or the FBI not to want it known that one of theirs committed the biggest mass
murder of its kind in American history. Also, we know that Paddock worked for three different federal agencies during his
career — the Postal Service, IRS and Defense Department — so he would have been a man known to the feds.

motive and critical questions linger about what exactly happened on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino.

'It Was Clearly Managed': Tucker Questions
Ellen-Campos Interview, Talks Las Vegas Conspiracies. Wednesday night [10/18/2017] on Fox News, Tucker Carlson
questioned why Las Vegas security guard Jesus Campos gave his one and only interview to Ellen DeGeneres, who is heavily

"Well, it turns out it could actually be a bizarre case of cross marketing by MGM Resorts that owns Mandalay Bay, sponsors by

Degeneres airs eight-minute interview with Mandalay Bay security guard Jesus Campos. The Mandalay Bay security
guard who was the first victim of the Las Vegas shooting sat down for his one and only interview with Ellen Degeneres on
Wednesday [10/18/2017] — but viewers hoping for answers about the ever-changing official timeline of the massacre
were sorely disappointed. Last week, security guard Jesus Campus scheduled interviews at all the major networks, but
then cancelled at the last minute and mysteriously disappeared.
Compilation
of Eye Witnesses Confirming Second Las Vegas Shooter. Multiple eyewitness testimony and video confirms the
existence of a second shooter in Las Vegas. The official narrative that gunman Stephen Paddock acted alone with dozens
of guns has been unraveling by the day.
Killing
Off the Vegas Witnessess, JFK Assassination Style. To all eyewitnesses to the Vegas massacre, be advised your
lives are in extreme danger. You may wish to consider not speaking to anyone, and I mean anyone, and then scrub all
social media accounts. The trail of Las Vegas eyewitness bodies are growing in a manner that is reminiscent of the
Kennedy assassination. The Common Sense Show greatly respects the sacrifices and courage of law enforcement
personnel. These brave men and women are normally a citizen's best friend. However, in the case of the Las Vegas
massacre, you can trust nobody and all are advised to not speak and write publicly. As an individual citizen you have
no obligation to risk your life. The Common Sense Show can assure you that we already have all the evidence we need to
expose the truth.
Hero
security guard who was Vegas gunman's first victim describes moment killer fired 200 bullets at him through a door. The
security guard who was shot at the beginning of the Las Vegas gunman's rampage has finally spoken out about his brush with death.
Jesus Campos had several interviews scheduled last week, before he cancelled them all and disappeared. But he resurfaced on Tuesday
[10/17/2017], when Ellen announced that she would be interviewing him on her show.
Las
Vegas guard Jesus Campos vanished after visiting urgent-care clinic, union leader says. The Mandalay Bay
security guard who disappeared last week moments before he was scheduled to break his silence in television interviews has
not been heard from since he went to a walk-in health clinic, his union president said. David Hickey of the Security,
Police, and Fire Professionals of America (SPFPA) told reporters Friday that he got a text the night before saying Jesus
Campos was taken to a UMC Quick Care facility, though he did not specify where or whom the text came from. A
spokesperson at the UMC Quick Care, which has eight locations throughout the Las Vegas area, told Fox News on Monday
[10/16/2017] that they had "heard nothing" about Campos visiting them.
Mandalay
Bay guard is laying low to avoid media spotlight. Jesus Campos apparently isn't missing after all. MGM
Resorts International suggested Tuesday [10/17/2017] that the Mandalay Bay security guard was simply laying low in an effort
to avoid the media attention brought on by his role in the Las Vegas massacre. While reports emerged this week saying Campos
was missing — after he failed to show up for an interview on the Sean Hannity show, as well as other scheduled
appearances on CNN, CBS, ABC and NBC — hotel officials told The [New York] Post that this was not the case.
Vegas
sheriff changes Mandalay massacre timeline AGAIN. During a tense and at times emotional press conference held
on Friday, Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo offered a third timeline of the Las Vegas massacre, saying there was no
six-minute gap between when the gunman shot a hotel security guard and opened fire on concertgoers. Lombardo, who is in
charge of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, also revealed that Stephen Paddock deliberately fired on responding
police officers, possibly to keep them at bay, but said there is no evidence that he was driven by ideology, or was
affiliated with any group.
The
Less We Believe Them about Las Vegas, the More They Want Our Guns. Las Vegas was a bit different from previous mass shooting in at least two
glaring respects. First, the inability of law enforcement to discover a motive remains the biggest mystery. Admittedly, these same authorities
in the US — and even worse in Europe — typically find themselves scratching their collective head in puzzlement after a murderer shouting "Allahu Akbar"
kills a bunch of people. (What did he mean by that? Maybe that's Arabic for "Merry Christmas"! We're still trying to figure out why
he did it, but we're sure it had nothing to do with Islam. And anyone who says it did is a racist.) At this point, the actions of the
person identified as the Las Vegas killer are attributed to mental instability. That's not good enough. Subjectively, even maniacs think
they are doing something. Even a total lunatic who believes he is, say, fighting Martians or chopping potatoes, intends that outcome. But
here, supposedly, someone stockpiles weapons for months, meticulously plans a murderous onslaught — and maybe had contingencies for attacks
elsewhere — and there's not a hint of what he thought he was up to. That's simply not plausible.
Vegas hotel:
Paddock opened fire on crowd within 40 seconds after guard was shot. Las Vegas authorities have revised the
timeline of the mass shooting, saying Stephen Paddock shot a hotel security guard around the time he began firing on the
crowd, not six minutes earlier. Speaking at a Friday [10/13/2017] news conference, Sheriff Joe Lombardo didn't offer
any new information about what motivated Paddock to open fire from the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Resort and
Casino, leaving 58 people dead and 546 injured, with 45 still hospitalized.
10
things that just don't add up about the Las Vegas mass shooting. [#6] Where is all the expended brass?
Now, maybe I'm just a moron who thinks automatic rifles discharge expended brass or something, because the last time I shot
my rifle — which was yesterday — hot brass kept blasting out the right side port with every
round. Very annoying. I wish I knew how to turn that off. So, given that Stephen Paddock was firing
full-auto rifles in a sustained 10-minute assault, at roughly the rate of six rounds per second, we should probably see
massive piles of expended brass all over the place. Let's see: 6 rounds per second, times 60 seconds
in a minute, times 10 minutes of sustained fire... that comes to 3600 rounds of ammunition. If you figure
there were pauses in the automatic fire, you could discount that to maybe 3000 rounds actually fired. Again, maybe
I'm just stupid or something, but if Paddock fired 3000 rounds, there should be 3000 brass casings all over the floor of
the hotel suite. [...] So where is all the brass, anyway? Did Stephen Paddock possess magical brass that can disappear
after being fired? I find it curious that ballistics details of the bullets that hit the pavement have not been released.
All the evidence we need is all over the concert lot, yet the public will never be given access to details about that evidence.
A
Tactical View: Mysteries of the Las Vegas Shooter. [#1] The motive: No apparent motive.
Paddock led a life of near luxury, had a happy relationship with his girlfriend and gave no indication to anyone of any
instability or ideological affiliation. He had no criminal record. He was also well beyond the average age range
of people commonly involved in such crimes. He does not fit any of the characteristics of mass shooters. Period.
[#2] The arsenal: Paddock put a substantial amount of thought and planning into the position of his perch as well as a
potential escape. He had the knowledge and experience to calculate accurate shots from an elevated position at distance.
But, for some reason the 64-year-old-man decided it was warranted to drag at least 23 guns and hundreds of pounds of
ammunition in ten separate suitcases to his room at the Mandalay Bay. A person with the intelligence displayed in the
planning of this event would know that most of these rifles were not needed in the slightest to achieve the effect desired.
They are dead weight, and moving them into the Mandalay only presented unnecessary risk of discovery. Unless, of course,
the original plan involved multiple shooters. [...] [#5] The windows: Why, after so much careful planning, did Paddock expose
his position by smashing two separate windows in his adjacent hotel rooms? There are other ways of providing a shooter's
loophole with less exposure? Very odd. Almost as if the decision to actually shoot was made suddenly, which does not
fit the rest of the narrative or evidence. [...] [#8] Multiple shooters?: Las Vegas County Sheriff Joseph Lombardo is quoted
as saying that it was only logical to assume given the evidence that Paddock "had some help at some point" in the staging of the
Vegas attack. To me, this is absolutely clear in the tactical planning. Paddock does not appear to have the background
or training to have chosen and staged the perch. The report suggesting that a phone charger was found that did not belong
to Paddock has since been refuted by police, as well as the report that his card key was used to access his room while Paddock
was gone. Of course, hotel surveillance would prove this one way or the other and should be made available to the public.
What Happens
in Vegas Doesn't Stay in Reno. [Scroll down] I don't know quite what's involved in "working" a crime
scene but one would assume it includes at minimum securing the crime scene. Yet apparently not. Last
weekend, Paddock's home in Reno was burgled. Just consider that for a moment: On Sunday night someone pulls off
the worst single-shooter massacre in American history - and yet it's insufficient of a priority to the multiple federal,
state and local agencies investigating it to prevent the supposed perpetrator's property being broken into under their
noses. That seems odd, don't you think? Sometimes, in unusual cases, sleepy small-town two-man police departments
find themselves a wee bit overwhelmed, and sloppy things happen. But how can it happen with these resources in the most
prominent investigation in the country? It is unclear to the Keystone Kops what was taken from the Reno home. Of
course. Since Day One, this entire case has been about what's missing, and what's missing seems to be getting larger.
A
Tale Of Two Shootings And A Destroyed Media Narrative. Ever wonder why some shootings disappear from the
headlines and others don't? Sure there can be a factor that makes it particularly newsworthy, but in general it is
driven by political sensitivity. For instance, if the daily carnage that happens in Chicago were not happening in
minority neighborhoods do you think the national media would impose a virtual omerta on coverage? (Every wonder why black
children who go missing in Washington DC are basically ignored by the Washington Post?) Sure race is an issue, but the
underlying cause is that every story has a dominant narrative and no major new outlet will run counter to that dominant
narrative. When a story doesn't fit, there is no cognitive dissonance, the story is simply ignored. Shootings are
a prime example. Let's look at a couple of recent ones.
FBI
Back In Reno After Burglars Elude Security And Raid Las Vegas Shooters Home. The FBI has beefed up security in Reno, Nevada,
after a group of burglars broke into the heavily guarded home of Las Vegas mass shooter, Stephen Paddock over the weekend. According
to authorities, a number of unidentified individuals descended on Paddock's home in the Del Webb retirement community just outside Reno,
bypassing both state and federal law enforcement who were assigned to protect the property. Local law enforcement says it's not clear
how the group got into the home, which is supposed to be under round-the-clock surveillance, and they do not have any suspects —
but they also believe nothing was taken from inside the home, as the home was left completely undamaged.
The Editor says...
Sounds like a professional was involved here. In and out without a trace, at one of the hottest crime scenes in America today.
There must have been something in the house that was worth the risk. Nothing was taken, they say. Ri-i-i-ight. Why not
just deny that the burglary happened at all?
What
Is Going On? Burglars Break Into Las Vegas Shooters Guarded Home. What were they looking for?
Burglars broke into the Las Vegas shooter, Stephen Paddock's Reno home over the weekend despite it being heavily
guarded. Treasure hunters looking for stuff to sell online? Or a coordinated movement to cover the tracks of a
much wider plot? Could this event spawn more conspiracy theories and for good reason?
Ann
Coulter: Media Find Las Vegas Shooter's Motive — He's White! If the media are going to keep
wailing about how vital a free press is, could they start reporting stuff? There's a remarkable number of dangling
facts about Stephen Paddock's mass murder in Las Vegas, which the media have shown little inclination to investigate.
It's almost as if they're worried that too much investigation will ruin it. For example: Who was the woman
shouting, "YOU'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!" right before the concert? Is any reporter interested in finding out?
Probably a random crazy lady, but that's not typical pre-concert behavior.
Las
Vegas sheriff frustrated by data discrepancies, unanswered questions. Nearly two weeks after a gunman unleashed
one of the deadliest mass shootings in modern U.S. history, authorities in Las Vegas are still left with more questions than
answers. Sheriff Joseph Lombardo, head of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, expressed his own frustrations
with the investigation, but said he remained determined to keeping the public informed.
FBI
Agents Working Evidence of Second Las Vegas Shooter Have Been Directed by DC Bosses To Stand Down. The hunt for a second
or third gunman in the Mandalay Bay Massacre in Las Vegas appears to be over, at least as far as the FBI is concerned. Whether
premature or not. FBI officials told True Pundit late Thursday [10/12/2017] the focus of the case now is zoned in solely
on Stephen Paddock as the lone gunman, per a directive from FBI headquarters in Washington D.C. The directive came as a shock,
as FBI insiders said they were pursuing leads that while Paddock was sniping innocent victims from his 32nd-floor perch at Mandalay
Bay, another gunman wielding an AR-15 5.56 caliber weapon was closer to the ground shooting from another angle.
Las
Vegas Shooting: Who Benefits? One way to investigate an incident is to ask who might have benefited from
it and then work backward from there. The Las Vegas shooting is such a case. A 'snapped' 64-year-old millionaire
brings 23 guns into a hotel, sets up multiple cameras and fires into a crowd across from the hotel. [Video clip]
Ann
Coulter: Las Vegas Massacre — The Story Is Coming Apart. The media are either doing PR for the
gambling industry or they don't want anyone considering the possibility that Paddock was using gambling to launder money. [...]
The media think about money the way Democrats do. They have absolutely no conception of where it originates. Those
casino owners sure are generous! reporters think to themselves. Economist Thomas Sowell is always ridiculing journalists
for not understanding basic economics. It turns out, they don't understand the spreadsheet of a lemonade stand. The
New York Times explained that the "top" video poker machines pay out 99.17 percent. That's great that Paddock
was only losing cents on the dollar (if true), but it's still losing. The Times quickly explained that he could have more
than made up his losses with all the "comps" — the free rooms, meals and "50-year-old port that costs $500 a
glass," as his brother Eric said. Gamblers who are beating the house are not given $500 glasses of port. Refer to
the profit/loss spreadsheet. And yet, according to his brother, Paddock was treated like royalty by the casinos.
Which means he was losing.
Steve
Wynn Was Right — Las Vegas Shooter Used Mandalay Bay Freight Elevator. During an interview on Sunday
casino, hotel and resort billionaire Steve Wynn was describing some insider trade talk about the Mandalay Bay Massacre.
During the interview Wynn inadvertently mentioned shooter Stephen Paddock using the "service elevators" and how Wynn's
internal security measures would never allow that to happen. Asked for clarification, Mr. Wynn quickly demurred.
However, CBS is now reporting that Stephen Paddock did in fact use the freight elevator at the Mandalay Hotel and Casino.
The
Official Mandalay Bay Massacre Narrative Just Completely Changed. Well, well, well... the entire previous weeks
claims about the timeline and structure of Stephen Paddock and how he carried out the Mandalay Bay Massacre just changed a
full 180 degrees today when Sheriff Joseph Lombardo dropped a statement that Paddock did not begin shooting until his
advanced preparation was interrupted by Mandalay Bay security officer Jesus "Jose'" Campos. [...] Paddock was drilling a hole
in a door ("adjacent room") when Campos walked in at 9:59pm. That's when Paddock opened fire on Campos wounding him in
the leg. Immediately thereafter is when Stephen Paddock broke out the windows and opened fire on the crowd below.
This latest revelation is explosive because it shows Paddock was interrupted in the act of preparing for the attack, and not
during the commission of the attack itself. This explains a great deal about the event and why so many advanced
preparations appeared not to have been utilized. [...] This is not a timeline issue. No way can this current
explanation square with all the previous details, which were stated as facts day-after-day well into their fourth and fifth
day press conferences. Lombardo and the FBI were telling a story that they now admit was demonstrably false.
Why
We Cannot Trust the FBI. The FBI is discounting ISIS' claim that the Las Vegas attack was jihad. But is
the FBI really trustworthy? The Islamic State says Steven Paddock converted six months ago. He filmed himself
killing; jihadis do that and post it online. The attack was meticulously planned, as jihad attacks are, and Paddock
likely had an accomplice. Paddock made numerous trips to the Middle East. Over 200 of his foreign financial
transactions were flagged for possible "covert terrorism financing." Contrary to the ignorant, misinformed and delusional
talking heads in the media, ISIS does not take responsibility for events that are not theirs. This has led even the New
York Times' terrorism expert to give credence to ISIS' claims.
Forensic acoustic proof of SECOND shooter
in the Las Vegas massacre. In essence, because of the differences in the speed of sound vs. the speed of the
bullets from a known cartridge (.223 Remington, in this case), the time lag between the last bullet hitting the pavement and
the last audible report of the rifle muzzle can be used to very accurately calculate the range of the shooter. More
importantly, when the audio from the Las Vegas shooting is analyzed, it reveals TWO shooters operating at the same time, not
just one shooter.
New revelations:
Las Vegas gunman shot security guard before opening fire on concert-goers, police say. Police have dramatically
changed their account of how the Las Vegas massacre began on Oct. 1, revealing Monday that the gunman shot a hotel security
guard six minutes before opening fire on a country music concert — raising new questions about why police weren't
able to pinpoint the gunman's location sooner. Officials had previously said that gunman Stephen Paddock, 64, of Mesquite,
Nev., shot Mandalay Bay security guard Jesus Campos after Paddock had unleashed his deadly volley at the Route 91 Harvest
Festival, an assault that began at 10:05 p.m. and left 58 people dead, with hundreds more injured.
Mandalay
Bay security guard was shot six minutes before Las Vegas gunman began shooting, police say. [Scroll down]
At 9:59 p.m., Campos was shot in the leg after Paddock reportedly fired 200 shots into the hallway. Paddock began
shooting into the crowd six minutes later, contradicting original reports that Campos' arrival is what stopped Paddock's mass
shooting. Between the time that Campos was shot and Paddock began shooting, Campos notified authorities of what happened,
which Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Undersheriff Kevin McMahill said Friday was "absolutely critical" as it gave
police Paddock's exact location.
Vegas
Taxi Driver Video: The Zapruder Film of the Mandalay Massacre? There are several videos circulating that
make it sound as though there were more than one shooter in Vegas. But none that I've seen compare to this one, which
has been called "The Zapruder Film" of the massacre. In it, there are several bursts of fire that sound very far away
and — pretty much at the same time — another weapon discharges very close to the camera.
Video:
Automatic Gunfire Heard At Ground Level During Las Vegas Mass Shooting As Cover-Up Continues To Unravel. In the
video, which is amazingly over an hour long, you can not only hear gunfire and its echo in the distance for much of the time,
you can also hear shots fired literally right near the frightened couple who filmed their entire escape from the concert.
[...] Take note that this footage has NOT been addressed by any of the authorities who have seemingly totally ignored its
existence while continuing to claim that only one shooter operated from the 32nd floor of the hotel. Most likely, the
same officials (and media outlets for that matter) who are covering up the obvious possibility of multiple shooters are
the very people who directly lied about when Stephen Paddock actually checked into the hotel in the first place.
NY Times ISIS expert
does a 180, thinks Vegas slaughter might be ISIS after all. Rukmini Callimachi, New York Times ISIS
correspondent is having second thoughts about the Islamic State's involvement in the Las Vegas attack. It appears
increasingly to point in that direction and it would be a stunning indictment of the FBI's nonchalant dismissal of their
claims. Knowing what we know about the FBI's involvement in the Garland Texas jihad attacks and the Boston plot to
behead me, the kindest thing I can say about them is that they cannot be trusted.
The
Collapse Of The Government Narrative On The Las Vegas Shooting. The internet is swirling with possible
scenarios for things that could have happened. I've seen a lot of them and won't rehearse them here. It isn't
necessary to rehearse what might have been, what could have been, what's possible, and what is feasible, in order to
understand that the government narrative is infeasible. For me there are two pieces of evidence that point conclusively
to the fact that this didn't go down the way the FBI says it went down. Everyone who has operated guns for a long
while, like I have, had to ask themselves the following question: "If God forbid I decided to perpetrate something evil
like this, what would that room have looked like when I was finished?" The answer for most knowledgeable and sensible
people is this: "Not like that." Not at all like that. After firing so many rounds from rifles, the
curtains, my face, my clothing, the carpet, the bedding, and just about everything else, would have been so covered with
carbon and lead deposits that the dominant colors would have been black and grey in any photograph. [...] I don't have to
tell you what happened in order to tell you that the government account didn't happen. It didn't go down the way they
said it went down, with one lone shooter firing bump fire stock AR-15s from one vantage point for no reason under the sun
except that he lost gambling money (or whatever). Their story is a lie.
Mystery
remains of why gunman's room had another person's cellphone charger in it... but police insist there was only one
shooter. Law enforcement have said they are 'confident' Stephen Paddock carried out the Mandalay Bay massacre
from his hotel room alone. Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Undersheriff Kevin McMahill said on Friday that
investigators are sure no one else was in the room before he shot dead 58 and injured almost 500 on Sunday.
Earlier, NBC News had reported a mysterious charger that did not mach any of Paddock's cellpones — raising the
possibility that another person had been with Paddock beforehand.
3 Curious
Factoids: Were Others in Paddock's Suite? [#1] Reports from NBC News indicate that more than one person
almost certainly visited Stephen Paddock's suite at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino. [...] [#2] at Captain's
Journal, Herschel Smith points us to a video snippet that seems to capture two weapons firing simultaneously.
Were
Others in Paddock's Suite? Did Paddock act alone? While the evidence is far from convincing that he had
help, there are certainly avenues that remain to be explored before we categorically state that he was a lone actor.
New
ISIS Infographic on Vegas Shooting Claims Paddock Converted Six Months Ago. The Islamic State continued insisting that they
have a connection to Sunday night's massacre in Las Vegas with the publication of an infographic about the crime filling the second page
of their 16-page weekly newsletter. Today's release marks the 100th issue of al-Naba, which is distributed in ISIS territories and
online via mediums such as Telegram and social media as a PDF. ISIS claimed through their Amaq news agency Monday morning [10/2/2017]
that the "Las Vegas attacker is a soldier of the Islamic State who carried out the attack in response to calls for targeting coalition
countries." They claimed he had converted to Islam recently. In the new al-Naba issue, the terror group claims Stephen Paddock
converted to Islam six months ago.
Was
Las Vegas Shooter "Radicalized"? The deadliest mass shooting in modern American history has been cravenly transformed into
anti-American propaganda by the Left, as Democrat commentators race to ghoulishly disparage white men, gun rights and the NRA, Republicans,
and President Trump, blaming them for what otherwise looks like a Muslim terrorist atrocity. Islamic State continues to claim
responsibility for the massacre. The terrorist group also claims Paddock converted to Islam six months ago and refers to him
by a nom de guerre, Abu Abdul Barr al-Amriki. In Las Vegas Wednesday [10/4/2017] FBI Special Agent in Charge Aaron
Rouse said, "We have found no evidence to this point to indicate terrorism, but this is an ongoing investigation. We're going
to look at all avenues, not close any." Paddock may have been "radicalized unbeknownst to us," Clark County, Nevada, Sheriff Joe
Lombardo said at a presser without elaborating. The reporters present for the statement did not bother to follow up.
For much of the mainstream media, the fact that Paddock was a white male explained his violent rampage.
Vegas
Sheriff: Large Quantities of Explosive Compounds in Shooter's Car; No Known Hotel Companion. Clues left
behind by Las Vegas shooter Stephen Paddock — including 50 pounds of Tannerite, 1,600 rounds of ammunition and
an undisclosed amount of ammonium nitrate left in the gunman's car at the Mandalay Bay hotel — indicate he may have
thought he would survive and escape, authorities said today [10/4/2017]. At an evening briefing on the investigation into
Sunday night's massacre, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Sheriff Joseph Lombardo tackled some of the reports and rumors
that have been circulating: what looks like a notepad on a table in the leaked crime scene photos "was not a suicide note,"
and the stairwell next to Paddock's suite was not welded shut but it was "secured." "We haven't been able to determine if
there was anyone else in that room besides him," Lombardo said.
Veteran,
who alerted the cops to Vegas gunman's EXACT location, demands to know why it took more than an hour for the hotel room to be
raided. An Iraq war veteran who was staying in the same hotel as the Las Vegas gunman is demanding to know why
it took more than an hour for the cops to take him down. Police received their first report of gunfire at the Route 91
Harvest festival, in Las Vegas at 10.08pm on Sunday. But it was another 72 minutes before SWAT teams finally burst into
Stephen Paddock's room at the Mandalay Bay to find the suspect had shot himself dead moments earlier. The most concerning
issue is there appears to have been an unexplained 24 minute delay, where SWAT teams were armed and ready to go outside
Paddock's room, but waited until 11.21 pm to enter.
Gowdy
on Vegas Shooting: 'Difficult to Believe That a Single Person Could Have Done This Without Detection'. Monday [10/2/2017] on
Fox News Channel's "The Story," Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) offered his thoughts on the investigation of the Las Vegas mass shooting a
night earlier that left at least 59 dead and 527 injured. Gowdy told host Martha MacCallum he was skeptical that Stephen
Paddock, the individual thought to be responsible for the shooting, could have acted without at least one person identifying his
behavior as suspicious. The South Carolina Republican predicted in coming days he will be proved correct.
ISIS provides proof of
Vegas claim, "careful monitoring of the crusader gathering" and other facts you do not know. The Islamic State
has provided further information (in English) to substantiate its claim that Steven Paddock was a Muslim convert who waged
war in the cause of Allah in Las Vegas Sunday evening, claiming that Paddock did a reconnaissance of the site of his mass
shooting. It is unwise for the authorities and the leftwing media to dismiss the Islamic State's claims out of
hand. Primarily because underestimating the Islamic State has been one of the West's biggest mistakes, and secondly
because we know nothing about this unfathomable act of evil. The FBI said it had found no such connection so far, with
the local sheriff describing him as a lone "psychopath." How could they possibly know that so much early in the
investigation? It speaks to a gross incompetence and already predetermined outcome.
UTT Assesses Las Vegas
Attack As A Jihadi Operation. While investigation reveals [Stephen] Paddock was a politically left-wing
individual with possible Marxist ties to Antifa and other groups, the evidence points to jihad. Since UTT first
published its initial assessment, the Islamic State claimed the Las Vegas attack was conducted by one of their "soldiers."
It should be noted, this is a very strong data point in understanding the events in Las Vegas. The Islamic State has
never claimed responsibility for an attack that was not carried out by a jihadi. Later in the day Monday [10/2/2017],
the Islamic State issued a second public message calling Stephen Paddock a "soldier of the caliphate" and a "martyr" and
stating he converted to Islam in the last few months. The Islamic State further gave Paddock the Arabic name of Abu
Abed al Bir Al-Amriki. The fact the FBI found "no evidence" of links between Paddock and "terrorist organizations" is,
in fact, evidence he is likely linked to such organizations. The FBI has been wrong on every single attack of this
nature over the last 8 years. The FBI had investigations on and interviewed nearly all of the jihadis who
ended up killing Americans in the attacks in Little Rock, San Bernadino, Ft. Lauderdale, Orlando, Boston, and
others. The government called the massacre at Fort Hood, Texas and the beheading of a woman in Oklahoma as "workplace
violence." The government continues to catastrophically fail in their basic duties to (1) know the enemy and
(2) protect the public.

Unanswered Questions About The Las Vegas Shooting That Mainstream Media Doesn't Want To Talk About. As you will
see below, the evidence is mounting that there were multiple shooters and that this was an operation that was planned well in
advance. But according to the mainstream media, a 64-year-old retired accountant with a flabby physique that had no
military training whatsoever and that wasn't very experienced with guns was able to pull the whole thing off all by
himself. We are being told that Paddock was a "lone wolf" that didn't have any ties to terror groups, and since he is
now dead nobody is ever going to be able to interrogate him. But the American people definitely deserve some answers
about what took place, and that means that all of us should keep digging. [...] How did someone with "no military background"
and that wasn't a "gun guy at all" operate such advanced weapons? Because what we are being told by the
mainstream media just doesn't make any sense whatsoever.
Based
on the Early Reports, the Las Vegas Shooting Is Very, Very Strange. [Scroll down] Put all this together,
and the shooting is flat-out bizarre. It's significantly different from virtually any other mass shooting in U.S.
history. If the weapons were fully automatic, then he likely would have spent immense sums of money to obtain them
legally, jumping through extensive legal hoops. [...] As my colleague Charlie Cooke tweeted earlier this morning,
legally-owned fully-automatic weapons have been used in three crimes since 1934. So, a person who's "not a gun guy" has
either expended untold thousands of dollars to legally purchase fully-automatic weapons, somehow found them on the black
market, or purchased and substantially modified multiple semi-automatic weapons — and did so with enough
competence to create a sustained rate of fire. This same person also spent substantial sums purchasing just the right
hotel room to maximize casualties. I cannot think of a single other mass shooter who went to this level of expense and
planning in the entire history of the United States.
LVMPD
audio: 'There are at least two shooters with fully-automatic weapons'. Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department
audio captured during last Sunday's active shooting at Mandalay Bayresort and casino reveals how officers confirmed that
there were at least two shooters firing down onto the crowd of concertgoers attending the Route 91 music festival.
After a series of fully-automatic gunfire popped off and people started getting struck by flying rounds a team of law
enforcement officers and another 'element' stormed the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay it was feared that there was an
additional shooter on the 29th floor.
The
Vegas Shooter's Girlfriend's Story Strains Credulity. Are we ever going to get to the bottom of the Las Vegas
shooting? A lot of hopes were pinned on getting access to his girlfriend, Marilou Danley, who has now returned from a
trip to visit her family in the Philippines. She's been speaking to authorities and the information made public so far
might be seen as clearing her from involvement but... well, let's just say more questions need to be answered.
Secret
Life? ISIS Doubles-Down, Says Vegas Gunman Converted Six Months Ago. The Islamic State doubled-down on
previous claims that the man behind the worst mass shooting in American history had converted to Islam six months ago, and
carried out the devastating attacks as an ISIS soldier. The terror group renewed its claims in the 16-page edition of
'Naba', its weekly newsletter; saying Stephen Paddock, the 64-year-old former accountant from Mesquite, Nevada, secretly
converted to an Islamic fighter half a year ago. "Las Vegas attacker is a soldier of the Islamic State who carried out
the attack in response to calls for targeting coalition countries," said the ISIS newsletter.
Where did
the Las Vegas Mass Murderer's Money Come From? One of the puzzles about the mass murderer in Las Vegas is the
source of his money. His brother characterizes him as "very wealthy" and that "$100,000 is no big deal". His real
estate holdings holdings have been estimated as worth several millions of dollars. He paid cash for his latest real
estate, and gambled up to a million dollars a year, according to a real estate agent who dealt with him. [...] There
are many unconventional sources of wealth that could be laundered through casino gambling.

Muslim
Terrorist Shouting, "Allahu Akbar" Slits Woman's Throat In France. This is the new Europe. Terrorist
attacks like these are not an aberration. They're the new normal. And the new normal procedure is to bury them as
crimes or just the random attacks of random madmen, randomly shouting, "Allahu Akbar".
Knifeman
shouting 'Allahu akbar' slits a woman's throat and stabs another to death at Marseille station before he is killed by French
army. ISIS have claimed responsibility for a terror attack which saw a man shouting 'Allahu Akbar' stab two
women to death with a butcher's knife in Marseille. The victims, aged 17 and 20, suffered horrific injuries during the
'frenzied' attack, with one slashed in the throat and the other stabbed in the chest and stomach. Eyewitnesses told how
a man 'dressed in black' launched himself at the two women, who screamed for their lives as others ran for safety. The
assailant was gunned down by soldiers who were on patrol inside Saint Charles train station at the time as part of France's
ongoing state of emergency. [...] It is thought to be the latest in a long series of Islamic State atrocities across France
and the rest of Europe.
Man
yelling 'Allahu Akbar' kills 2 at French train station before being shot dead. A man wielding a butcher knife
and shouting "God is great" in Arabic stabbed two young women to death — slitting one's throat —
outside a French train station before being shot dead by soldiers Sunday morning [10/1/2017]. The Paris prosecutor's
office launched a terrorism investigation into the killings in Marseilles. Hours later ISIS claimed the attacker was
its "soldier." The unidentified terrorist struck his victims — who were just 17 and 20 — at the
Gare Saint-Charles train station, cutting one's throat and stabbing the other in the chest and stomach.

Two
American female tourists in their early twenties are rushed to hospital after having acid thrown in their face[s] outside
Marseille train station. Two female American tourists suffered facial injuries in an acid attack that left two
others nursing burns, outside a train station in Marseille. The four tourists, in their early twenties, were travelling
between Marseilles and Paris when a 41-year-old man sprayed them with hydrochloric acid, according to reports. [...]
According to witnesses, no slogans were shouted out during the attack, and it was not thought to be terrorist related. [...]
Fourteen firefighters rushed to the scene in four emergency vehicles. Police do not believe the attack is terror related.
The Editor says...
Nope, no sign of Islamic terrorism. Except they're the only people who do stuff like this, and anybody with any common
sense — even 4800 miles away — can see it is an act of Islamic terrorism. Prove me wrong.
Acid
attack on 4 US students not seen as terror act, France says. The Paris prosecutor's office said earlier Sunday
that its counter-terrorism division had decided for the time being not to assume jurisdiction for investigating the
attack. The prosecutor's office in the capital, which has responsibility for all terror-related cases in France, did
not explain the reasoning behind the decision. [...] A driver deliberately rammed into two bus stops in Marseille last month,
killing a woman, but officials said it wasn't terror-related.
London
September 15, 2017
Second
London "Bucket Bomb" Suspect Arrested Was Syrian Refugee. The second suspect arrested in the London 'bucket
bomb' attempt highlights the reality of the multi-year concern about unvetted refugees and the potential for importing
terrorism. Yahya Faroukh, 21, is a Syrian national who sought asylum in the U.K. from the civil war.
Unfortunately, it appears he carried the civil war of jihad with him.
Both
suspects in London subway attack are "refugee" 'kids' nurtured by do-gooders. The 'kids' (unaccompanied alien
minors?) were from Iraq and Syria. Both received government-supported foster care from a couple known for their welcome
to needy 'kids.' Of course we have to wonder if they were even kids when they got into the UK, but that's a story for
another day.
Pair
questioned over Parsons Green Tube bombing. The younger man is suspected of planting the device, which exploded
on a District Line train in London on Friday morning, injuring 30 people. He and the other man, reported to be from
Syria, are being questioned by police on suspicion of offences under the Terrorism Act.
The
Unaccompanied Muslim Minor Refugee Terror Attack in London. Ronald Jones, 88, and Penelope Jones, 71, like so
many well-meaning Westerners, had no idea what they were letting themselves in for until the police were hammering at their
door. Now they themselves have been turned into refugees, seeking shelters with relatives, while the police search for
clues to the latest terror attack. The couple became interested in fostering "refugees" when the media barraged
helpless listeners with sob stories of Syrian suffering. But while they spoke often of children, the actual migrants
are adults. At the center of the case is Yahyah Farroukh, a Syrian, in his twenties. Farroukh was no child.
Neighbors described a constant flow of traffic to the Jones home. The visitors wore the traditional Islamic clothing
often associated with the Jihadists who are the core of the European terror threat. Prayer mats were set out in the
garden. And there were constant cell phone conversations.
Parsons
Green bombing: Police cordon off home of second refugee foster child. A 21-year-old man was arrested in Hounslow on
Saturday night [9/16/2017] just hours after police caught the 18-year-old suspected of planting the Tube bomb at the Port of Dover.
After the second arrest officers cordoned off a property just yards from Heathrow Airport linked to a Syrian refugee who had previously
lived at the home of Ron and Penny Jones, who had been fostering the 18-year-old before his arrest.
The Editor says...
The British press is clueless, incompetent, and paralyzed by political correctness.
A young man of fighting age who enters another country to engage in terrorism is not a refugee.
An 18-year-old guerrilla is not a foster child. How many other "foster children" have beards,
stockpiles of weapons, and no plans to get a job?
Police
admit another 'Bucket Bomber' could be on the run. The 18-year-old being held by police on suspicion of
planting a bomb on the London underground was arrested two weeks ago at the exact same tube station where the device exploded
but released, neighbours have said. The teen — who is being held after police tracked him to the departures hall at the
Port of Dover — is thought to have been a 'problematic foster child' who was raised in Sunbury-on-Thames by Penelope Jones,
71, and husband Ronald, 88. Serena Barber, 47, who has known the couple all her life and lives in a property backing on
to theirs, said: 'They have two boys at the moment, both are foreign. One is very quiet and polite, the other
who is 18 is awful.
Second
man is arrested over Parsons Green attack. A second man has been arrested in connection with the terror attack at
Parsons Green. The 21-year-old man was arrested in the London borough of Hounslow at around 11.50pm last night [9/14/2017]
and has been taken to a south London police station. It comes as neighbours claim terror police have recovered '15 firearms
and a bomb' from a Surrey house raided in connection with the attack.
Manhunt
for London bomber underway as threat level raised. British police raced Saturday [9/16/2017] to track down
whoever planted a bomb on a packed London Underground train, as authorities raised the national threat level to maximum,
meaning another attack may be imminent.
Parsons
Green terror: Teenager arrested in Dover in connection with bomb attack. A teenager has been arrested in
Dover in connection with yesterday's bomb attack on a tube at Parsons Green, West London. The 18-year-old man was
arrested in Dover under The Terrorist Act in connection with the Parsons Green station bombing. The terror attack saw
an improvised explosive device detonated on a London underground tube injuring 29 people.
British police arrest man in hunt for London
bombers. British police arrested an 18-year-old man in the southern port of Dover on Saturday [9/16/2017] in a
"significant" development in the hunt for the people behind a London commuter train bombing that injured 30 people a
day earlier.
Multiple
injured after 'blast' at London subway station. A bucket wrapped in an insulated bag caught fire on a packed
London subway train Friday, sending commuters stampeding in panic at the height of the morning rush hour. Police said
they were investigating it as a terrorist attack. Photos taken inside a District Line train show a white plastic bucket
inside a foil-lined shopping bag. Flames and what appear to be wires emerge from the top. London ambulance
service said they had sent multiple crews to the Parsons Green station and 18 people were hospitalized, though none
had life-threatening injuries. Police advised people to avoid the area in southwest London.
At
least 20 people are injured in Tube terror attack. Police are today [9/15/2017] hunting for the 'bucket bomber'
who tried blow up a rush hour Tube train amid claims the terror suspect is armed with knives and may have left other
devices. The crude device could have killed dozens but failed to properly detonate and sent a 'wall of fire' through
the carriage injuring at least 18 people including a ten-year-old boy. Terrified passengers 'ran for their lives'
and were seen covered in blood with scorched hands, legs, faces and hair after the incident at Parsons Green station in west
London at 8.20am.

Two dead, at least six hurt in knife
attack in Finland. A man with a knife killed two people and wounded eight others in a stabbing rampage in a market square
in the Finnish city of Turku on Friday [8/18/2017], police said. Police shot the suspected attacker in the leg and arrested
him. They said they had yet to establish the identity of the man who was of foreign origin, or his motive.
Several
wounded in stabbing attack in Finland. Authorities in Finland have shot and arrested a suspect after several
people were stabbed in the city of Turku. The incident reportedly occurred in the city's Puutori-Market Square area,
BBC reported. The police have warned people to stay away from the area.

German
hurt in Barcelona car rampage dies, bringing toll to 16. The number of people killed in twin terror attacks in
Spain last week rose to 16 on Sunday, local authorities in Barcelona said Sunday [8/27/2017]. "This morning a 51-year-old
German woman died after being treated in a critical condition in hospital," said a statement from the region's civil defense.
The attacks on Las Ramblas boulevard in Barcelona and in the seaside resort of Cambrils left around 120 wounded.
Spain
is left reeling by Barcelona attacks chilling map shows how more than 300 innocents have lost their lives in 16 separate
jihadist atrocities. Barcelona and Cambrils, Paris, Stockholm, Berlin and London — these are just some of the
horrifying attacks which have taken 364 lives, severely injured victims, ripped families apart and left communities
devastated in Europe over the past two years. Each attack — committed by ruthless jihadis — has shocked and saddened
the world, leaving people heartbroken and fearful about the future. Streets are flocked to by emergency services,
witnesses reveal the horror of climbing over bodies and desperately trying to save strangers and families launch campaigns to
find their missing loved ones. But despite the attackers attempting to scare people into not living their lives, the
cities and communities come back fighting each time.
Five
jihadis wearing suicide belts are killed and seven people injured as gunfire erupts in beach resort south of Barcelona.
A hero policewoman surrounded by drugged-up jihadis wearing 'Coke can' suicide vests killed four out of five of them herself and saved
an injured colleague, it was revealed today [8/18/2017]. The terrorists carrying knives and an axe bailed out of their overturned
Audi A3 used to plough into crowds on the seafront in Cambrils on the Costa Dorada at 1am today, killing a woman, 61, from Zaragoza,
and injuring six others. Two police officers were on a routine foot patrol when one was hit by the car and within seconds her
partner pulled out a handgun and killed four of them as they charged her.
American
dead in Spain, US citizen also injured in terror attack. The State Department announced Friday [8/18/2017] that one American
was among the 14 people killed in a pair of deadly terror attacks in Spain. The assaults — in Barcelona and
Cambrils — wounded more than 100 others, and one U.S. citizen was also among that count, officials said.
Hero
Spanish cop killed 4 Cambrils terror attack suspects, official says. A heroic Spanish police officer on Friday [8/18/2017]
single-handedly killed four of the five suspects who were believed to have carried out a terror attack in the Catalan seaside town of
Cambrils, a senior police official said. At least one of the suspected terrorists appeared to be laughing and taunting a police
officer who shot and killed him, according to video footage of the incident and a witness who saw the stunning encounter.

Knife-wielding
Muslim shouting "Allahu Akbar" arrested at Eiffel Tower. "Not terrorism," said police right after it happened,
even though the Muslim knifeman (allegedly with "mental issues"), from the West African state of Mauritania, brandished a
knife in front of tourists and security forces and told police he wanted to kill a soldier.
Man
with knife arrested at Eiffel Tower. French police arrested an intruder brandishing a knife at the Eiffel Tower
on Saturday night which led the monument to be evacuated, sources said. The man, who is aged around 19 and has a
history of psychological problems, forced his way past security guards and then shouted "Allahu Akbar" ("God is Greatest"), a
legal source told AFP.

Spot
the difference: CNN vs. Breitbart edition. Why would CNN leave out what the stabber actually said
in the article plus the person's race? CBS radio also is not saying what the person said or his name and saying it is
impossible to tell if it is terrorism. Somehow, the other day, when a white person drove a truck into Muslims in
London, the media were immediately able to declare it terrorism and say the driver's race. Isn't that amazing? I
am not a law enforcement officer or a reporter, but my deep analysis of the situation leads me to conclude that the stabbing
was a terrorist attack done in the name of Islam. Why don't the media report what they know instead of intentionally
keeping certain information from the public?
Man
Who Stabbed Police Officer In Michigan Airport Is a Canadian Muslim. The attacker armed with a knife that
stabbed a Flint airport police officer Wednesday morning [6/21/2017] has been identified as Canadian resident Amor M.
Ftouhi. The officer, Lt. Jeff Neville was stabbed in the neck, by Ftouhi, and was critically injured but has now
been upgraded to satisfactory condition. Ftouhi was arrested at the scene by Neville, helped by another police member,
a fire department member and a maintenance worker.
Attacker
Shouts 'Allahu Akbar' Before Stabbing Michigan Cop At Flint Airport. An unknown assailant allegedly yelled
"Allahu Akbar" before stabbing an off-duty police officer in the neck area at the Bishop Airport in Flint, Michigan on
Wednesday, according to various reports. The suspect is currently in custody, according to a Fox News report, and the
FBI is investigating the incident as a possible terror attack. The officer, Lt. Jeff Neville, was taken to the
hospital in critical condition, but has since been upgraded to stable after surgery, according to NBC.
POSSIBLE terror incident. NBC isn't quite sure. Let's keep an open mind, after all.

neck, sources and witnesses at Bishop International Airport said.
Brussels

Foiled Brussels attacker's
bag had nails & gas bottles — prosecutor. A bag found at the scene of a foiled terrorist attack in
Brussels contained gas canisters and nails, according to a Belgian prosecutor. The suspect, who was shot dead, is a
36-year-old Moroccan national with no previous record of being a terrorist suspect. The man was identified as O.Z., and
his home in the Molenbeek area was searched, Prosecutor Eric Van Der Sypt told journalists at a news conference. The
suspect was not wearing a suicide belt, but was heard shouting 'Allahu Akbar' ('God is great' in Arabic) before being shot
dead by soldiers, the prosecutor said.
Man
With 'Explosives Belt' Shot By Brussels Police, Explosions at Central Station. Reports claim that there have
been explosions at the main railway station in Brussels and that police have ordered people to evacuate the building.
The Brussels Public prosecutor has said that there have been no civilian deaths or injuries in the incident. The
prosecutor's office has not so far specified whether the man shot has died or is being treated for his injuries and have not
identified the man.
Suspected
suicide bomber threatening train passengers 'shouts Allahu Akbar and triggers an explosion'. A suspected
suicide bomber who allegedly shouted 'Allahu Akbar' before triggering an explosion at Brussels Central Station has been
gunned down by soldiers. Shots rang out soon after 8pm tonight as police and soldiers moved in to 'neutralise' the man,
who was said to be 'threatening rail passengers' in what is being considered as a terrorist incident. Initial reports
suggested the suspect — described as being 'tanned, well-built and in his 30s' — was wearing an explosive vest or
rucksack, while witnesses later claimed he tried to blow up a trolley or a suitcase.
London
June 3, 2017
London
Terrorist Fought in Sen. McCain's Beloved Free Syrian Army. One of the terrorists who carried out the deadly London Bridge attack
in England this month fought in an affiliate of Senator John McCain's beloved Free Syrian Army (FSA) in Libya, supporting the U.S.-backed effort
to topple Muammar Gaddafi. His name is Rachid Redouane and, after fighting in the Libyan revolution with the Tripoli-based group Liwa al
Ummah, he joined a militia that deployed jihadist fighters to Syria.
The
18 glaring chances missed by authorities to stop the London Bridge killers. The police, MI5 and the UK border
force missed at least 18 clear chances to tackle the three London Bridge jihadists raising even more serious questions about
their ability to stop violent extremists. MailOnline can reveal there were several opportunities to stop more than one
of the terrorists getting into Britain in the first place — but the authorities failed to intervene. Mastermind Khuram
Butt was deemed a 'low priority' despite an aborted attempt to wage holy war in Syria, links to several notorious extremists
and an appearance on national TV where he unfurled an ISIS-style flag in public.
London
Mayor Sadiq Khan accidentally reveals Trump's criticisms of his statement were correct. So the mayor [of
London] admits that there are 200+ trained insurgents roaming the streets of Britain, but there is no reason to be
alarmed! Hmm, that sounds like a guy who has an armed security detail that follows him everywhere he goes. Don't
worry about the cops not following these trained killers who believe that murdering the mayor's constituents is a holy
obligation because "all of us have a role to play"? Does this mean the mayor believes that family, friends, and
neighbors would turn in anyone suspected of planning terror attacks? That hasn't been the way it has worked.
Have
we finally had 'enough'? Islamic terrorists killed eight people and wounded 48 more in London on June 3 before
being shot to death by police. It was the third terrorist attack in Britain in as many months. Last September, after a jihadi
attack in New York, London Mayor Sadiq Khan said, "It is a reality I'm afraid that London, New York, other major cities around the world
have got to be prepared for these sorts of things."
Britain Pays the Price
for Complacency. The attacks in London on Saturday are the latest in a series of terror strikes that have led
to the deaths of over 30 civilians of various nationalities. British PM Theresa May has expressed the outrage of most
British people, declaring that "we cannot allow this ideology the safe space that it needs to breathe" and calling for the
regulation of cyberspace to prevent the internet being used so effectively by terrorist groups to disseminate their poisonous
ideology. These declarations by the British prime minister conceal a scandal. The signs of Britain's current
predicament were visible decades earlier, and successive prime ministers and cabinets proved incapable of anticipating the
extent of the threat from Islamist terrorism.
Police:
All 12 people arrested after London attack released without charges. London police announced Monday [6/5/2017]
they were releasing the 12 people they arrested following the attack in the city Saturday night that killed seven and
injured dozens. Police did not say why they were releasing the individuals or what they had been suspected of doing.
The
decades-long smoldering of England's Muslims. The alienation that lacerated London Bridge Saturday night has
been a long time festering, at least a quarter-century, when I first became aware of it. In 1989, book-burnings in
Britain against the novel "The Satanic Verses" led to the fatwa, or death sentence, against its author, Salman Rushdie,
forcing him into hiding for a decade. Then, in 1991, more Muslim protests broke out against the British government's
support for the U.S.-led first Gulf War to reverse the seizure of Kuwait by Saddam Hussein. Suddenly, the British
discovered that a large and undigested population of disaffected Muslims lived in the heart of England.
No
wonder they didn't want us to know who the London Bridge Butchers were. [Scroll down] The senior
echelons of intelligence and investigation appear utterly incompetent. They give endless press statements and tweets,
parading leaders of community faith groups in the name of diversity, but still they fail to take action. The West
Midland Police have just admitted that their Head of Counter-Terrorism Unit has classified and highly confidential papers
stolen from a car he was using on May 15. A force spokesman said: 'An investigation has been launched after items were
stolen from a West Midlands Police officer's unmarked car. 'A number of personal items were taken during the theft along
with a locked metal box that contained documents relating to police matters. The box was locked in the boot. The
officer remains at work.' At a time when our terror threat was heading from Severe to Critical — the head of
counter-terrorism has highly classified papers nicked from his car? Are we leaving paperwork in parked cars now?
My shenanigans detector is flashing red. It's not adding up.
London
Bridge terrorists: All refugees or immigrants. The ringleader of the London Bridge terror attack who was
photographed on the ground with canisters strapped to his body was today named by police as Khuram Butt[.] Butt, 27, of
Barking, East London, is believed to have led the trio of terrorists who ploughed into pedestrians using a hired van, before
stabbing revellers in pubs and bars on Saturday night [6/3/2017]. Assistant Commissioner Mark Rowley said Butt was known
to police and MI5 but said there had been no evidence of "attack planning" and he had been deemed as a 'low priority.'
From My Cold Dead Keyboard.
The global community has been rocked by tragedy after tragedy over the last several weeks, but few instances have captured
the international spotlight as readily as the recent attacks in London. The international community was quick to offer their
support to the beleaguered Britain, but a troubling response came from that nation's own leader. In a prompt speech following
the terrible events, British Prime Minister, Theresa May offered a plan of action to address the uptick in terrorism that has ravaged
Western Europe. May's ideas raise fears of their own. In her call to action, May called for a drastic change in global
Internet policy. From removing "safe spaces" where terrorists may communicate anonymously, to forcing companies to weaken
their encryption standards so government entities may more easily monitor communications, the proposed policies sound a myriad
of alarms for those concerned about their civil liberties.
The Editor says...
The internet isn't the problem. Civil liberties are not the problem. Islam is the problem. But
the internet is easier to control, and civil liberties are easier to remove.
The Endless Terror War.
By all accounts, the killers bore no special grudge against those they murdered. They appear not even to have known
their victims. Why, then, did they kill these strangers, and themselves? A BBC eyewitness suggests a
motive: "They shouted, 'This is for Allah,' as they stabbed indiscriminately." The murderers were Muslims.
The rationale for their crimes lies in the belief that their bloody deeds would inscribe them in a book of martyrs, and Allah
would reward them with instant ascension into the paradise that awaits all good Muslims. Ideas have consequences.
And where might these crazed killers have gotten an idea like that?
Preacher
Who Helped 'Radicalize' London Attacker Lives In Michigan. A Michigan-based Islamic preacher's YouTube account
may have helped radicalize one of Saturday's London attackers, a friend of the attacker told BBCNews Asia. The
preacher, Ahmad Musa Jibril, is well known on youtube for preaching sermons that appear to lionize Islamic terrorists
fighting in Syria. The friend of the attacker was so concerned by his obsession with the preacher's sermons, it
prompted him to notify the anti-terror police. The attacker and two accomplices killed seven and injured dozens more
after plowing a car into a crowd and stabbing passersby before police could gun them down.
London
terror attack: British officials eye burka ban and stripping citizenship. After yet another deadly
terrorist attack swept through the streets of Britain late Saturday [6/3/2017], lawmakers and leaders were scrambling to take
back the reins and foil any further tragedies. British Prime Minister Theresa May, speaking Sunday after a meeting of
the government's COBRA emergency committee, claimed there was "too much tolerance" of Islamist extremism in the U.K. and
insisted that the country's counterterrorism strategy would be reviewed.
The Editor says...
Politicians all over the world speak about Islamic terrorism without actually calling it what it is. They'll
think about what just happened and they'll review it all, but they'll never take any substantive action,
because that would be portrayed in the newspapers as "racism," a (most likely) baseless charge the politicians
nevertheless find indefensible.
Mass
immigration without assimilation is national suicide. The UK got another lesson in this rule last night.
A nation simply cannot allow a massive flood of immigrants that do not share the values and ideals of that nation. And
if that nation makes no effort at demanding assimilation, the situation will get worse very quickly because that nation has
surrendered its sovereignty. And, if that nation has also effectively disarmed its citizens, well, then that nation is
reduced to running, hiding and telling. Will the UK, or the rest of Europe learn? Will they reject the
foolishness of allowing mass immigration of people who largely reject Western culture? Will they at the very least roll
back their inane gun control laws? Will they stand up and say what must be said, that it is Islamists that are the
cause of every last terror attack to hit Europe in recent years? Will they let go their irrational addiction to
"equality" and face reality? If they do not then attacks will increase both in frequency and scope. Western
culture is not the problem, Jihadism is, and Europe has allowed the seeds of these attacks to be sown by not having common
sense immigration laws. Now, they are reaping the fruit of those seeds.
London attack: Terrorists
shouted 'this is for Allah'. Seven victims are confirmed dead after a group of terrorists with hoax explosives
strapped to their chests drove a van into pedestrians on London Bridge before jumping out and stabbing people. A Kiwi
man is among the injured after three Jihadi terrorists shouted "this is for Allah" as they stormed the Borough Market area,
full of pubs and restaurants, and attacked punters with 12-inch hunting knives.
Islamic
State Supporters Celebrate London Terror: Allah Will Reward You for Running over Infidels. Writing in an
encrypted chat room, Islamic State sympathizers and militants hailed Saturday's deadly attacks in London and typically called

After
London Bridge, The World Is Sick Of Politicians Downplaying Terrorism. As if on cue, in the wake of Saturday's
terrorist attack in London political leaders are trotting out the usual treacly lines that have become so rote. But the
words they pretend will provide comfort to anyone but the most naïve are borderline worthless. Worse, they're an
insult to the families who have had to experience the shocking pain of the sudden loss of a family member or friend at the
hands of a terrorist.
London
Mayor Sadiq Khan's tweets haven't aged well. London Mayor Sadiq Khan is offering the usual condemnation cliches for
Saturday's terror attack on London Bridge, which left at least 6 dead and some 20 injured, calling the attack 'cowardly'
and the murders 'tragic.' Cue the teddy bears, the floral displays, and the hastags. It's the same futile response that
followed the Manchester terrorist concert massacre and the Westminster Bridge terror attack. But Khan has a history,
noted by the Twitter account named Tennessee. It's not going down well in the wake of the latest terror attack[.]
Nigel
Farage: 'Words Are Not Enough, People Want Action', Slams Sadiq Khan, Theresa May on Terror Responses. UK
Independence Party (UKIP) MEP Nigel Farage has slammed London Mayor Sadiq Khan for not addressing extremism in Muslim
communities and criticised Theresa May's tenure as home secretary, saying that the prime minister's words are not enough and
people want action. On Fox and Friends Weekend, the Brexit campaigner criticised Mr. Khan for telling Londoners
"not to be alarmed" [...]
Jihadis
Celebrate Deadly London Terror Attacks Online. Islamic State sympathizers are reportedly celebrating the latest
attacks to shake the United Kingdom online. Attackers slammed a van into pedestrians on London Bridge late Saturday
evening. The incident was immediately followed by a string of stabbings at Borough Market nearby. Pro-ISIS
channels are heralding the attacks as "the black days we've promised" and are anticipating an ISIS claim, reports the SITE
Intel Group, which monitors jihadi activity worldwide.
London
attacks: Witnesses report van swerving into people, rapid gunfire and stabbings. Authorities in London responded late Saturday [6/3/2017]
to reports of attacks on citizens in three locations near the London Bridge, as witnesses report what appeared to be a coordinated attack. Multiple
witnesses reported a vehicle veering off the road and hitting several pedestrians; others also said they saw a man with a knife. Witnesses reported
seeing injured people on the ground on the bridge.
Saturday attacks
[represent] a tipping point in campaign to destroy the West. There is no longer any doubt: the mayhem in London Saturday night [6/3/2017]
has raised terrorism to a new threat level to the Western world. The methods, and reported reference to Allah by one of the knife wielders points to
Islamic perpetrators, though no official statements have been issued. Yet the van that plowed into pedestrians on the historic London Bridge, the
knife attacks near Borough Market — carried out nearly simultaneously — reflect the same boldness and brazenness on the part of the twisted warriors
of the Islamist campaign to destroy Western civilization and force us all to worship their version of God. Coming only a few days before British
voters go to the polls for a June 8 snap election, and just months after a similar vehicular attack on Westminster Bridge, the weekend violence is
certain to have an effect on turnout and, quite possibly, the makeup of parliament and the next British government.
A
white van 'mows down 20 people' on London Bridge amid unconfirmed reports of gunfire and stabbing. Seven people
are feared dead after three men with 12-inch hunting knives reportedly stabbed pedestrians after mowing down up to 20 people
with a white van on London Bridge. The men, described as being 'of Mediterranean origin', reportedly jumped out of the
van and began 'randomly stabbing people' along Borough High Street in central London at 10pm. The car, believed to be a
B&Q vehicle, reportedly veered in an 'S shape' at 50mph across the bridge and has driven towards the Shard and is south of
the river. 'Rapid gunfire' was heard in the London Bridge area as armed police are thought to have shot shot dead two of
the men, with a search underway for the third man.
Manchester, UK
May 22, 2017
Introduction and overview by The Editor:
I had never heard of Ariana Grande before this incident, nor do I care to listen to any of her past performances to see what
the attraction could have been, but this incident should have been forecast weeks in advance. Why? Because the Muslims
hate to see unaccompanied women having fun in public, especially after sunset, and especially if some of them should go home and
put some more clothes on. The Muslims detest revelry and drunkenness and loud secular music. They all do.
The jihadis are those in the suicidal subset who are willing to do something about it, hoping to be instantly rewarded in
paradise with their own little set of virgins. They immediately find out how wrong they were, I believe, but by then
it's too late. Frankly, I'm surprised that incidents of this sort don't happen more often, in places where the same
types of events are scheduled and publicized, like Times Square on New Year's Eve, Mardi Gras, and every weekend in
Las Vegas. As the Muslim population grows, and especially when they reach the majority, these incidents will
multiply rapidly, and then they will come to an abrupt end when outdoor performances of secular music are outlawed.
But by then they'll find something else that's offensive and intolerable.
Brother
of Manchester Arena bomber found guilty of murder. The brother of the Manchester Arena bomber has been found
guilty of the murder of 22 people and helping to plan one of the deadliest terror attacks the UK has ever seen. Hashem
Abedi was not in court to hear the unanimous verdict after deciding earlier in the week to withdraw himself from the proceedings,
sacking his entire defence team. As each victim's name was read out the jury returned a guilty verdict, with family members
becoming emotional and heard crying in the courtroom.
Police
arrest 24-year-old man on suspicion of terror offences over Manchester bombing. Police investigating the
Manchester Arena terror attack have arrested a 24-year-old man, force bosses confirmed this morning [6/3/2017]. He was
arrested in the Rusholme area of the city on suspicion of terrorism offences. A statement from Greater Manchester
Police this morning said: 'As it stands 17 people have been arrested in connection with the investigation,
of which six people have since been released without charge.
Ariana
Grande concert attack: 119 wounded, 64 people still hospitalized. The number of people wounded in the explosion
at an Ariana Grande concert in England, increased to 119 on Wednesday [5/24/2017], double the number initially reported,
Manchester health officials said. Officials said the number was raised because of the "walking wounded" who came in
seeking medical treatment hours after a bomb detonated at Manchester Arena on Monday, killing 22 people.
Manchester
bomber Salman Abedi took his twisted revenge out of 'love for Islam'. Salman Abedi launched his suicide attack
out of 'a love of Islam' and in twisted revenge for US airstrikes on Syria, his sister has claimed. Jamona Abedi failed
to condemn her brother's murderous actions but instead claimed to offer an explanation for the atrocity, in which 22 innocent
people, many of them children, were killed. Miss Abedi, who lives in the Libyan capital Tripoli, said her brother had
become increasingly violent over the course of the past year, convinced that Muslims were under attack both in the UK and abroad.
Chemical
engineering student and his brother held over the Manchester terror attack. A chemical engineering student and
his brother were being held over the Manchester terror attack last night as Amber Rudd admitted that members of the bomber's
network could still be at large. University students Mohamed and Yahya Werfalli were arrested in the early hours of
Saturday [5/27/2017] — hours before Theresa May lowered the UK's terror threat level from critical to severe.
The brothers, who like other suspects are British born but of Libyan heritage, are believed to move in the same friendship
circles as the Manchester bomber Salman Abedi, also 22. Yahya is listed on Facebook as a friend of the bomber's brother,
Hashim, 20.
The Myth of White
Terrorism. Islam isn't just preying on the weak. They're preying on the weak-minded. On Monday
night, Salman Abedi murdered 29 young Britons and their parents with a nail bomb. As is always the case, the response
has been flowers and apologies and calls to coexist. On Sky News I hate-watched some ponce tell an SAS soldier
he "understands his rage" but we can't punish Muslims because it will create a backlash. This is a country where they
ignore child rapists and regularly imprison white men for offending Islam.
How Obama's 'smart power'
helped seed the Manchester attack. South Manchester is home to one of the world's largest Libyan expatriate communities, which
in recent years has become a prime recruiting ground for young jihadists. And Libya itself is the base for an ISIS external-operations
wing tasked with plotting terrorist attacks in Europe. Indeed, since the fall of Moammar Khadafy, Libya has become a haven for Islamist
terrorist groups. Such is the result of Barack Obama's failed policy — which he so confidently announced would prove smarter
than his predecessor's mistakes in Iraq, only to be proved horribly wrong.
Manchester
attack: Fears over 'second bomb' after police find huge chemical explosive cache in Salman Abedi raid.
The Manchester suicide bomber may have built a second device which is now in the hands of fellow jihadists, police
fear. Officers who raided the home of Salman Abedi discovered a working bomb factory with a huge stash of explosive
chemicals and other components. Security sources now believe that Abedi assembled the bomb himself after learning his
trade in Libya. But the amount of material in his home has led to fears that he could have built more than one device
and and distributed them to other British-based extremists.
The Left's Road Leads To
Manchester. I hadn't heard of Salman Abedi before he murdered all those little girls and their friends and family members at the
Ariana Grande concert, but when I recently spoke at Truman State University in Missouri, the University at Buffalo, and Gettysburg College, and
then at an event in Iceland, I discussed the belief system that incites people such as Salman Abedi to violence. I explored the ways in
which jihad terrorists use the texts and teachings of Islam to justify violence and make recruits among peaceful Muslims, and the texts of the
Qur'an and Islamic law that call upon Muslims to wage war against those who do not believe in Islam. For this, the three universities and
the Icelandic press treated my presence in the country as if Josef Goebbels had stopped by for a visit.
Manchester
Bomber, Salman Abedi, Linked to Libyan ISIS — "Libyan Dawn". Today [5/24/2017] the links emerge
between the Manchester bomber, Salman Abedi (22), and these extremist forces within Libya. It appears the bombing
attack against the Manchester concert venue was directed and coordinated by the family of Abedi and their close contacts
within Libya including his father Ramadan Abedi who was arrested earlier today.
Mosque
of Manchester Bomber Refuses to Take Responsibility. Now that Salman Abedi has been named as the suicide bomber
who blew up dozens of children in Manchester, today was the time for the elders of his mosque in Didsbury to speak.
They were resolute and clearly angry, but as the press statement was read, it became depressingly clear what they were angry
about: Islamophobia and the media. The statement started with a firm insistence that this statement would be the
only one and that there would be no questions. Then, the usual opening remarks about how the bomber had basically
embarrassed Islam by his actions, and a half-hearted request to assist the police.
England
is Safe from Geller and Spencer But Not from Islamic Terror. British Police have named Saman Abedi as the
Terrorist suicide bomber caused the mass murder of Children in England after an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester and it's
reported that another person has been detained in connection to the attack. As I watch the usual suspects are sounding
the same, the phrases "Lone Wolf", Islamophobia, love vs hate, and doing all it can to take the Islam out of the latest
example of Islamic Terror.
He wasn't exactly a lone wolf if there are five other suspects.
Live
Manchester attack latest: Fifth suspect arrested in Wigan'carrying a package'. A woman was arrested in Manchester following
an armed raid on a block of flats late on Wednesday evening [5/24/2017] in connection with Monday's suicide attack. Several other arrests
were made including a suspect in late night raid in Nuneaton, Warwickshire, as detectives probe a "network" linked to the Manchester suicide
bomber. One suspect, believed to be carrying a package, was also arrested in Wigan earlier today. Seven people have now been arrested
in total.
One of the
Biggest Failures Leading to Manchester. One of the great failures in the run up to the Manchester situation has
been the Church of England, which has manifestly failed at providing answers to the question the little voice asks. In
England, atheists outnumber believers and credible estimates have the number of practicing Christians in the single
digits. Atheism provides no answer to the quiet voice we all hear asking questions. It certainly provides no way
to address the rise of radical Islam. It presents no alternative to dangerous ideologies. The Church of England
will have much to answer for on the final day.
Father
and Brother of Manchester Bomber Arrested in Libya. The father and a brother of suspected Manchester suicide
bomber Salman Abedi have been detained by security personnel in the Libyan capital, Tripoli, according to witnesses and
officials. Three vehicles drove up to the Abedi home Wednesday evening and several men wearing uniform, some of them
masked, detained Ramadan Abedi, the alleged attacker's father, and two other unidentified men in the street. It wasn't
immediately possible to reach a spokesman for the United-Nations backed government in Tripoli for comment.
Father
of Manchester suicide bomber Salman Abedi says son is innocent, had recently traveled to Libya. The suspected
Manchester suicide bomber is a 22-year-old college dropout who made frequent trips to Libya and may have visited Syria, a
French official said. Authorities are investigating if Salman Abedi was radicalized during the trips. Less than
two days after the deadly blast, two of his brothers and his father would be in police custody.
That
Didn't Take Long: Newsweek Already Fretting About 'Reprisals' Against Manchester Muslims. This seemingly
is the first reaction from the media whenever a Muslim fanatic slaughters innocent people. Don't concern yourselves
with the victims or the next terrorist attack. Worry instead about the backlash that never comes and so-called "Islamophobia."
Manchester
bomber's brothers, father arrested. The older and younger brothers of the Manchester terrorist have been
arrested, along with his father, all suspected to have ties to to the Islamic State. The bomb maker is still being hunted.
Salman
Abedi Flew from Libya Days Before Attack, Travelled to Syria. The Manchester Arena suicide bomber, Salman
Abedi, allegedly returned to Britain from Libya just days before carrying out his deadly attack and is thought to have also
travelled to Syria. The son of "deeply religious" refugees who returned to the North African country after Colonel
Muammar Gaddafi's death, Abedi is said to have had "proven" links to the Islamic State by French interior minister Gerard
Collomb, citing "British investigators".
Manchester
Suicide Bomber Salman Abedi: Son of Libyan Immigrants Who Chanted Arabic Prayers in The Street. Salman
Abedi, the suicide bomber responsible for the Manchester Arena bombing Monday night which left 22 people dead and dozens
injured, was reportedly the son of Libyan immigrants and was apparently radicalised while living in one of the country's most
heavily Muslim areas — an area that had terror-related problems before. Greater Manchester Police Chief
Constable Ian Hopkins identified Abedi Tuesday as the man who detonated a bomb at the end of an Ariana Grande concert as
concert-goers left the arena. Multiple outlets, including The New York Times and the Daily Telegraph,
reported that Abedi was born in 1994 in Manchester and was of Libyan descent.
Manchester
Bomber Said To Be Known To Authorities, Likely Didn't Act Alone. The suicide bomber who killed 22 people and
injured 59 after a pop concert in Manchester was known to the security services and likely did not act alone, interior minister
Amber Rudd said on Wednesday [5/24/2017]. Authorities have named the bomber as Salman Abedi, 22, who was born in Manchester
to parents of Libyan origin.
Western politicians worry
more about being called "Islamophobic" than they do about stopping jihadist slaughter. London mayor Sadiq Khan
(who recently dismissed terrorist attacks as "part and parcel of living in a big city"): "London stands with Manchester."
Orlando mayor Buddy Dyer (who, in the wake of the Pulse nightclub massacre, proclaimed a CAIR-backed "Muslim Women's Day" —
you know, the kind of event that proclaims hijabs "empowering"): Orlando "stands in solidarity with the people of the UK."
L.A. mayor Eric Garcetti (who went berserk when Trump tried to impose that temporary travel ban from a half-dozen Muslim countries):
"Los Angeles stands with the people of Manchester." Meaningless words, all of them. But Angela Merkel takes the cake:
"People in the UK can rest assured that Germany stands shoulder to shoulder with them." Well, isn't that ... reassuring. In
what way do such words help anybody to "rest assured" of anything?
European
Multiculturalism Will Lead to More Manchesters. Increasingly, in the United States, the left wishes to employ a
salad bowl approach, instead of a melting pot. The idea is that each culture lives together, but keeps strong
distinctions between itself and the other. The lettuce may pick up the taste of the carrot while both are smothered in
a common dressing, but they remain distinct. European multiculturalism reflects the salad bowl model and it is going to
keep getting them killed. Throughout Europe, muslim immigrant communities stay in their ghettos, keeping their culture
separate, while taking on the citizenship of their new countries. There are sections of Paris where you dare not go if
you are Jewish. The same is true in parts of Sweden, Belgium, and even Great Britain now. Cultural fiefdoms outside
the common cultural heritage of a nation have sprung up and as muslim populations begin exceeding 10%, problems start happening.
Manchester's
Islamist Appeasing Police And Politicians Have Blood On Their Hands. In the months before weeping little girls
with nails in their faces were carried out of the Manchester Arena, the authorities of that city were hard at work fighting
the dreaded threat of Islamophobia. While Salman Abedi, the second-generation Muslim refugee terrorist who maimed and
killed dozens in a brutal terrorist attack, stalked the streets wailing, "There is no god but Allah and Mohammed is the
messenger of Allah", Manchester police were busy with more important things. The Greater Manchester Police are one of
only two police forces to list Islamophobia as a hate crime category. Earlier this year, Chief Constable Ian Hopkins
honored Tell Mama for fighting Islamophobia. Tell Mama had lost funding earlier when its claims of a plague of violent
Islamophobia fell apart.
Muslim
with an Axe and Baseball Bat Arrested During Manchester Attack Vigil. Footage shows the man shouting incoherently before
being taken away in a riot van in Edmund Street, which runs behind Birmingham's council house. A police officer could be seen
carrying away what appeared to be a baseball bat and a small axe. Speakers who had been paying tribute to the 22 Manchester
victims were interrupted by the man's loud protests, from down a side street.
In
Wake Of Manchester Bombing, NY Times Calls For Respecting Hardcore Islamists. This is a dance we've seen time
and time again. A person who practices extremist Islam, referred to as an Islamist, attacks in the name of their
religion, and the Leftist apologists immediately go into a mode of "let's not be mean to Muslims or talk about the root
causes and we all need to be respectful and diverse", even though the Islamists offer no respect and are happy to kill those
who aren't Islamists, including other Muslims.
The
jihad playbook: Why terrorists attack children. The attack in Manchester, England, that has so far killed
at least 19 and wounded at least 50 is ghastly. That it targeted children is as unforgivable as it is consistent with
the jihadist playbook. Conservative Review's Jordan Schachtel has the full story from Monday night, and details are still
coming out at the time of this writing. Among of the bigger observations that has been made about this attack, however,
is that it was waged against young adults, teenagers, and children attending a pop concert.
Yet
Another Jihad Massacre in Britain. Here we go again. 19 people are dead and 50 wounded in a suspected
jihad-martyrdom suicide bombing at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, a target that the jihad murderers apparently chose
because of its concentration of pre-teens and tweens, so as to maximize the potential to "strike terror into the hearts of
the enemies of Allah" (Qur'an 8:60). But don't be unduly concerned: Britain's criminally feckless Prime Minister
Theresa May is on the job, saying in a statement: "We are working to establish the full details of what is being
treated by the police as an appalling terrorist attack. All our thoughts are with the victims and the families of those
who have been affected." As canned responses go, that one is particularly packaged, processed, and colorless. How
grand that she is thinking about the victims and their families. And the police are on the job! Marvelous!
Manchester
Ariana Grande Concert Bomber is Yet Another 'Known Wolf' Terrorist. As with virtually all Western terror
attacks (as I've reported many times here at PJ Media — see below), this appears to be yet another case of "Known
Wolf" terrorism. The suspected bomber had been known to authorities beforehand. In this case, as in so many
others, he apparently had been deemed not a threat.
Security
services know Ariana Grande concert bomber's name, says PM as reports claim ISIS attacker 'was known to police'. Neighbours of
British-born Manchester suicide bomber Salman Abedi have revealed his 'strange behaviour' in the weeks before he slaughtered 22 people.
The 23-year-old British-born attacker was heard 'chanting Islamic prayers loudly in the street' outside his home in the south of the city.
Last night, the suicide bomber murdered and maimed concert goers as they were leaving Manchester Arena. ISIS this morning claimed responsibility
and threatened further attacks, saying 'one of the caliphate's soldiers placed bombs within a gathering of the Crusaders'.
Explosion
in Manchester leaves mass fatalities. Several people have been killed and countless others injured after a
massive explosion occurred Monday night [5/22/2017]at Manchester Arena in England. The explosion occurred as the venue
was hosting a concert for the American performer Ariana Grande.
Manchester
death toll reaches 22; ISIS claims responsibility. The death toll climbed to 22 and the Islamic State claimed
responsibility Tuesday following a suicide bombing that brought death, fear and panic to a packed concert venue in the heart
of this northern city, authorities said. The explosion rocked an area of the 21,000-seat Manchester Arena at about
10:33 p.m. local time Monday — just as teen pop idol Ariana Grande wrapped up her sold-out show. Chaos
ensued as concertgoers, many of them pre-teens and teens, scrambled for the exits amid smoke and the cries of the wounded.
Children as young as age 8 were among the victims.
Latest
on investigation into Manchester concert bombing. Police on Tuesday [5/23/2017] identified the man who blew
himself up the previous night at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England, as 22-year-old Salman Abedi. CBS News
confirmed Abedi was known to British authorities prior to the attack. In a generic statement posted online, the Islamic
State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) claimed responsibility for Abedi's suicide bomb attack, which left 22 people dead, including
children, at one of the entrances to the Manchester Arena.
Leftists
on Twitter are only worried that people are saying bad things about Muslims. A terrorist attack (likely Islamic)
outside of an Ariana Grande concert Monday night [5/22/2017] killed at least 22 people and injured approximately 59, but the
bleeding heart Muslim sympathizers on Twitter seem more concerned about hurting the feelings of Muslims. Some verified
users are angry at the "racism (what "race" is Islam?) and xenophobia" they're seeing in response to the attack, which reports
say was carried out by a (Muslim) suicide bomber. How about a little anger on behalf of the innocent victims?
Terrorist kills
22 in Manchester, UK. An explosion at a packed pop concert arena in the northern British town of Manchester has
left 22 dead and injured another 69 music fans. Police are treating it as a terrorist incident carried out by one man,
a suicide bomber. Many of the victims were teens, children and young families. Witnesses reported hearing an
explosion, which police said was in the foyer area, moments after the American singer Ariana Grande's gig finished in the
Manchester Arena packed with more than 20,000 fans.
Fresno, California
April 18, 2017
Fresno
shooting spree: 3 people killed, suspect who yelled 'Allahu Akbar,' says he 'hates white people' in custody.
Police said the man who killed three people on a shooting spree in downtown Fresno, California, on Tuesday [4/18/2017] while shouting
"Allahu Akbar" wanted to kill as many people as possible after a warrant was released for his arrest in the murder of a motel
security guard last week. Fresno Police Chief Jerry Dyer said Kori Ali Muhammad, 39, knew he was being searched for and
he "decided he was going to kill more people."
AP
Removes Fresno Killer's Allahu Ackbar and Islam Reference. Kori Muhammad, the Muslim terrorist who killed three
in Fresno earlier today targeted white, non-Muslim people for his attacks. His social media was full of hatred of white
people, Trump and non-Muslims. But that doesn't matter to the media like the Associated Press.
Why Don't
Police Care About "Allahu Akbar" in Fresno? A gunman shouting "Allahu Akbar" killed three people on a rampage
in Fresno, California, on Tuesday morning local time. The suspect, Kori Ali Muhammad, 39, surrendered to officers at
the scene and said "you guys are looking for me." At this point the FBI is not treating this as a terrorist incident.
[...] "Immediately upon the individual seeing the officer he literally dove onto the ground and was taken into custody and as
he was taken into custody he yelled out 'Allahu Akhbar,'" according to Fresno Police Chief Jerry Dyer. However, Dyer added
that the attack had "nothing to do with terrorism in spite of the statement he made" saying "this is solely based on race."
Motive
sure to stump many after several people killed in Fresno by suspect who hated 'white devils' and shouted 'Allahu
akbar'. As you might expect, the motive of the suspect with a dislike of "white devils" who police say shouted
"Allahu akbar" could take some time for many to untangle.
Fresno
Police: Shooter Not A Terrorist, Killed Solely Based On Race. Authorities in Fresno, California, are
saying that Kori Ali Muhammad did not commit a terrorist act on Tuesday when he went out and shot and killed three
people. Despite shouting "allahu ackbad" as law enforcement moved in, Muhammad committed a "hate crime," police
say. "This is solely based on race," said Fresno police chief Jerry Dyer. Muhammad has a lengthy criminal record,
with the Associated Press reporting that he has been in court several times between 1997 and 2004 for "forgery, domestic
violence, criminal threats and driving under the influence."
AP
Edits Fresno Killer To Erase Islam Reference, Implicate God. The Associated Press may want to reconsider the
publication of their stylebook if they're choosing to fake translate words in order to score political points. Which is
what they just did on a huge story, where the words matter a great deal. [...] Who are they to translate what he
actually shouted? He chose his words, that specific phrase, for a reason. And you know what? So did the AP.
AP
Changes Fresno Shooter's Words From 'Allahu Akbar,' Removes Islam Reference. The Associated Press edited the
words of a Muslim man who allegedly killed three white people in downtown Fresno Tuesday afternoon [4/18/2017] and shouted "Allahu
Akbar!" The suspect, 39-year-old Kori Ali Muhammad, holds fervent anti-Trump beliefs according to his social media
profile, and he told police afterward that he hates white people. Rather than reporting the gunman's literal words,
however, the AP reported the gunman as saying "God is great." On Twitter, the AP's report gave no indication that the
suspect's words were said in Arabic.
CNN
Completely Ignores Anti-White Fresno Murders. The murders of three white men by a black supremacist gunman in
Fresno received limited media attention on Tuesday [4/18/2017], most notably at CNN. CNN's dearth of coverage of the
shootings, carried out by 39-year-old Kori Ali Muhammad, an African-American Muslim, stands in stark contrast to its
reporting of other non-political news events: the manhunt for a Cleveland man who killed a 74-year-old man on Sunday,
a sexual harassment scandal involving Fox News host Bill O'Reilly, and a child custody battle involving radio host Alex
Jones. A review of CNN's broadcast through primetime shows that the Fresno killings received no mentions on air.
'I
hate white people': What man screaming 'Allahu Akbar' told police in Fresno. A man who shot and killed three
people on the streets of downtown Fresno on Tuesday was trying to murder as many white people as he could, authorities
said. Kori Ali Muhammad, 39, shouted 'Allahu Akhbar,' meaning 'God is great,' in Arabic while being apprehended shortly
after the shootings. He later told police that he hates white people. His victims were all Caucasian males
apparently chosen at random.
Black Islamic
'Kang' Murders Three in Anti-White Spree. Black anti-white terrorist Kori Ali Muhammad opened fire in downtown
Fresno, California midday Tuesday [4/18/2017], murdering three white victims before being arrested by local police.
Muhammad yelled "Allahu Akbar," Arabic for "God is greatest," during his arrest, explaining to law enforcement he hates white
people. He was already wanted for the Thursday shooting of a Motel 6 security guard, also in Fresno. Despite
Muhammad using a traditional Islamic chant, Sayed Ali Ghazvini, the imam of the Islamic Cultural Center of Fresno, denies
Muhammad was a member of his organization. Which makes sense, since Kori Ali Muhammad lionizes Wallace Fard Muhammad,
the charlatan — and nebulously black — founder of the Nation of Islam.
Fresno
police rule fatal shootings a hate crime. Fresno Police Chief Jerry Dyer announced late Tuesday [4/18/2017] the
department is investigating three fatal shootings that took place earlier in the day as a hate crime. "We believe this
is solely based on race," Dyer told reporters. Kori Ali Muhammad, 39, was taken into custody after he allegedly opened
fire on four random white people around 10:45 a.m. local time. A shooting spree followed.
Fresno
Killer: "Your Time Is Up, White Devil Skunks". As the news comes out about the killer who went on a
shooting spree in Fresno, California, it is becoming clearer and clearer what his motivations were. It has been
reported by several outlets (though, notably, not the Associate Press) that he shouted "allahu ackbar" prior to his
arrest. That seems to conform with what is not making the rounds on social media.
Stockholm, Sweden
April 7, 2017
Truck
jihadi wanted to "create fear in the population" and "run over unbelievers". A man has been indicted for
hijacking a truck in Stockholm and mowing down pedestrians in April 2017, killing five and injuring 15 others. The
man confessed to carrying out a "terrorist crime" in April last year. Swedish prosecutors charged an Uzbek man with
attempted terrorism and causing danger to others on Tuesday [1/30/2018].
Shocked
Stockholm On Lockdown After Truck 'Terror Attack'. Stockholm's usually vibrant city centre was eerily silent on
Friday evening [4/7/2017] with restaurants, bars and cinemas shuttered and streets emptied hours after a truck ploughed into
a crowd outside a department store, killing four people and injuring 15. Stockholmers appeared to be following police
advice to stay indoors and avoid crowded areas, with a number of normally-bustling city streets deserted.
Sweden
will 'never go back' to the days of mass immigration after failed asylum seeker launched Friday's truck attack in Stockholm,
says PM. The Prime Minister of Sweden has vowed his country will 'never go back' to recent levels of mass
immigration after it emerged the terrorist who killed four people in a truck attack was a failed asylum seeker. Stefan
Löfven pledged to change his country's liberal attitude, insisting the massive influx allowed during the 2015 migrant
crisis would never happen again. Rakhmat Akilov, from Uzbekistan, hijacked the lorry and deliberately drove into
pedestrians on central Stockholm's main shopping street on Friday afternoon [4/7/2017].
Truck
Crushes Pedestrians In Stockholm — We're Betting The Killer Wasn't Baptist. Yet another violent
attack on a 'soft target' of unsuspecting innocents. The real problem is not the type of weapon being used. The
problem is the desire of wicked men to kill innocents. And all too often, there's a common denominator.
Sweden
terror as truck rams into crowds in Stockholm - four dead, children injured. A hijacked truck has driven into
crowds on a crowded street in central Stockholm, killing at least four people and injuring dozens more. The vehicle
drove into crowds on Drottninggatan (Queen Street) — one of the city's major pedestrian streets, just before 3pm local time,
before crashing into Åhlens Mall. Armed police remain at the scene and the incident is being treated as a suspected terror
attack, according to local media. At least 15 people have been injured — of which 9 are in a serious condition.
Among the injured are two children — one with serious injuries.
Second
Man Detained in Connection with Stockholm Attack. Swedish public broadcaster SVT reported police had detained a
second man and that he had a connection to the previously arrested person, citing police sources.
London, England
March 22, 2017
Westminster Bridge attack victim Andreea Cristea
dies. A Romanian woman who fell into the Thames during the Westminster terror attack has died, police have
said. Andreea Cristea is the fifth victim of the attack on 22 March, in which Khalid Masood drove into crowds
on Westminster Bridge then stabbed a policeman to death, before being shot dead himself.
What
we know about London attacker Khalid Masood. British authorities have identified the man responsible for
Wednesday's terrorist attack in London as 52-year-old Khalid Masood. Originally from Kent, he had been living in
Birmingham, Britain's second-largest city, where neighbors said Thursday they had last seen him several months ago.
Marjoli Gajecka, 26, frequently visited her mother's house next to Masood's apartment.
Loony
Liberal Actress Claims London Terror 'May Be' a 'Set Up' by Trump. Put this one in the loony lefty bin.
Hollywood actress Patricia Arquette, known for winning the best supporting actress Oscar two years ago, revealed she's a
conspiracy theorist last night on Twitter. After an Islamic terrorist killed 4 people and wounded at least 40 others
in London Wednesday [3/22/2017], the actress claimed it was all a ruse by President Trump to distract us from the FBI investigation
into his ties with Russia.
'No
evidence' London attacker associated with ISIS: police. British authorities said Monday [3/27/2017] they had
found no evidence that London terrorist Khalid Masood had any association with ISIS or al Qaeda — but he was
clearly interested in jihad. "His attack method appears to be based on low-sophistication, low-tech, low-cost
techniques copied from other attacks, and echo the rhetoric of (ISIS) leaders in terms of methodology and attacking police
and civilians," counter-terror official Neil Basu said in a statement, Reuters reported. Police also had no indication
that 52-year-old Masood — who also went by the name Adrian Ajao — had discussed plans with others
before the deadly attack that left four dead near Parliament, Balu said.
London attacker Khalid Masood acted alone, say police.
Westminster attacker Khalid Masood acted alone and there is no information to suggest further attacks are planned, Scotland
Yard has said. Masood killed three people and injured 50 when he drove a car into pedestrians on Wednesday. He
then fatally stabbed a police officer before being shot dead by police — all within 82 seconds. Police said it was
possible "we will never understand why he did this".
The Editor says...
I'm absolutely certain you'll "never understand why he did this," if you don't open your eyes and learn the simple truth:
Islam is not a religion of peace. The Muslims — all of them — are bent on world domination through violent coercion
and outright terrorism.
Khalid
Masood Identified as London Parliament Attacker. The knife-wielding terrorist who killed an American tourist
and three others outside the U.K. Parliament was British-born and previously investigated for "violent extremism," officials
said Thursday. Police identified the suspect as Khalid Masood, 52, on Thursday. Authorities said Masood was born
in Kent and detectives believe he was most recently living in the West Midlands. He was known by a number of aliases,
police said.
British
Lawmaker: London Terrorist's Religion Is 'Utterly And Completely' Irrelevant. British Lawmaker Lord Digby
Jones does not believe the religion of the London attacker is pertinent, The Washington Post reports. Jones comments
come in the wake of a tweet by Donald Trump Jr. criticizing London Mayor Sadiq Khan for once telling citizens that terrorist
attacks are "part and parcel" part of living in a big city. Some British lawmakers drew offense from the tweet, saying
Trump was attacking the mayor in the midst of a terrorist situation.
Paris, France

The
police vs. the PC police. As is almost always the case, signs of trouble preceded the latest shooting in Paris,
which left one police officer dead and wounded two bystanders before police killed the gunman, later identified as French
national Karim Cheurfi, a known criminal with a long, violent record. ISIS claimed to be behind the attack.
According to police, a note praising ISIS fell out of Cheurfi's pocket when he fell. Cheurfi was of Algerian descent,
born in a Paris suburb. The Washington Post reported he had a criminal record and was known to authorities. His
rap sheet included four arrests and convictions since 2003. He had spent nearly 14 years in prison for crimes
that included burglary, theft and attempted murder.

His father insists that he wasn't a terrorist. The media rushes to blame drugs for his attack. It reports widely on the drugs in
his system rather than the Koran found on his body. No one asks if he was on drugs or on Jihad. Ziyed Ben Belgacem had been
in and out of prison. He was known to the authorities as a potential Jihadist and had been investigated for "radicalization" back in
2015. He had been suspected of burglaries last year and had been paroled in the fall. The system had failed all over again.

Paris
airport attack investigated as terrorism, suspected man known to police. The 39-year-old suspected attacker
killed at Paris' Orly airport on Saturday [3/18/2017] after trying to wrestle away a soldier's weapon had already crossed authorities'
radar for suspected Islamic extremism. Paris prosecutors said the suspect's house was among scores searched in November
2015 in the immediate aftermath of ISIS-led suicide bomb-and-gun attacks that killed 130 people in Paris. Those
searches targeted people with suspected radical leanings.
Chilling final words of
Paris airport attacker who shot at cops before he was killed. A convicted criminal with links to radical Islam shouted 'I am here to
die for Allah, there will be deaths' seconds before he was shot dead during an attack at Paris Orly airport. The 39-year-old, named locally as
career criminal Ziyed Ben Belgacem, was killed after wrestling a soldier's gun from her and fleeing into a McDonald's. He sent a text message
to his brother and father stating 'I shot the police', shortly before he was killed.

An
Attempted Terrorist Attacker at the Louvre Is Taken Down Quickly. Way down in the tenth paragraph:
["]While French officials have not expounded on their determination that the attack was "terrorist in nature," police
have said the suspect shouted "God is great" in Arabic during the incident.["] Yeah, see, when a guy does that,
it does seem to clear up his motive. Thank God no civilians were hurt, and this aspiring jihadist was dumb enough to
literally bring a knife to a gunfight.
Machete-wielding
man slumps to the ground after being shot in the stomach at the Louvre museum. A terror probe has been launched
in Paris after a machete-wielding man was shot while attacking four soldiers outside the Louvre. The suspect was shot
five times in the stomach and is in a critical condition. He was shouting 'Allahu Akbar' — Arabic for 'God
is the greatest' — according to the Paris chief of police, and reportedly had paint bombs in his backpack.
Machete-wielding
Muslim screaming "Allahu akbar" attacks French soldiers at the Louvre. Cue the next round of establishment

The Editor says...
This attack was not reported as an act of Islamic terrorism at all. Only after several days of follow-up
investigation was it revealed that the actor in this case had converted to Islam long ago. Until then, it was just
reported as an attack by a "mentally disturbed" soldier suffering from PTSD or something similar.

Still in Cover-up Mode: Ft. Lauderdale Airport Shooter Indictment Omits Terrorism. Days after the
massacre that shut down one of the state's busiest airports, Judicial Watch reported that the shooter, Esteban Santiago, is a
Muslim convert who years before joining the U.S. Army took on an Islamic name (Aashiq Hammad), downloaded terrorist
propaganda and recorded Islamic religious music online. A California-based investigative news site dug up the
information while the mainstream media blindly repeated the Obama administration's version of the facts though early on a
photo surfaced of Santiago making an ISIS salute while wearing a keffiyeh, a Palestinian Arab scarf. This was
disturbingly reminiscent of the Benghazi cover up, in which the president and his cohorts knowingly lied to conceal that
Islamic terrorists attacked the U.S. Special Mission in Libya.
FBI
Confirms Fort Lauderdale Shooter Carried Out Attack For ISIS. Fort Lauderdale shooter Esteban Santiago told FBI
agents he carried out his Jan. 7 deadly shooting in the name of the Islamic State, CNN reports. Santiago killed five
and wounded six in a shooting rampage in the baggage claim area of Fort Lauderdale airport. Santiago reportedly checked
his gun in his bag, loaded it in the bathroom, and randomly executed his fellow passengers. The FBI revealed Santiago's
confession at his bond hearing Tuesday. Santiago appeared to harbor delusions about being controlled by ISIS, and
reportedly walked into an FBI field office in Alaska to confess his delusions about being controlled by ISIS.
FBI
Says Ft. Lauderdale Shooter Did Not Pledge Allegiance to Islamic State. The search for motives in
26-year-old Esteban Santiago's shooting spree at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport continues, but the
authorities say they cannot find any ties to the Islamic State (ISIS) or other international terrorist organizations.
Miami Herald reports that, despite rumors to the contrary, nothing in Santiago's social media history indicates he was
"an Islamic convert inspired by terrorist organizations." According to the Herald's law enforcement source, the
airport shooting was clearly a planned attack, but Santiago appears to have planned it on his own, for reasons known currently
only to himself.
Airport
Shooter Converted to Islam, Identified as Aashiq Hammad Years Before Joining Army. The Ft. Lauderdale
Airport shooter is a Muslim convert who years before joining the U.S. Army took on an Islamic name (Aashiq Hammad),
downloaded terrorist propaganda and recorded Islamic religious music online, according to public records dug up by the
investigative news site of an award-winning, California journalist. This is pertinent information that the Obama
administration apparently wants to keep quiet, bringing up memories of the Benghazi cover up, in which the president and his
cohorts knowingly lied to conceal that Islamic terrorists attacked the U.S. Special Mission in Libya. Information is
slowly trickling out that links the Ft. Lauderdale Airport shooter to radical Islam while the official story from
authorities is that the gunman is a mentally ill, Hispanic Army veteran named Esteban Santiago that became unhinged after a
tour in Iraq. Only one mainstream media outlet mentions the possibility of Santiago's "jihadist identity," burying it
in a piece about New York possibly being his initial target.
CNN
Dishonestly 'Alters' Photo Of Fort Lauderdale Shooter's Connections to Radical Islam. CNN is at it again with
fauxtography doctored for political reasons. During CNN's coverage of the Ft. Lauderdale shooting, they put up a
photo of the shooter, Esteban Santiago-Ruiz. But it was the way they did it. They showed it in black and white
and they cropped it. The scarf CNN cut out of their picture is a keffiyeh and the one finger salute is a common ISIS
symbol. Selective editing.
Fort

Police
say gun was returned to Florida airport shooting suspect last year. Police in Alaska said on Saturday they had
returned a handgun to the Florida airport shooting suspect which was temporarily taken from him when he underwent a mental
evaluation late last year. Anchorage Police Chief Christopher Tolley said it was not immediately clear if it was the
same gun used in Friday's deadly rampage in Fort Lauderdale. Officials told a news conference the gun was returned to
the suspect, Esteban Santiago, 26, because the Iraq war veteran had not committed a crime.
Florida
Shooter Went by the Name "Aashiq Hammad". Fort Lauderdale Airport terrorist Esteban Santiago registered on

that "Islam had nothing to do with it."
Anchorage
police returned gun to Florida shooting suspect after 'mental health crisis'. The Anchorage man accused in the
mass shooting at a Florida airport Friday did not have ties to a terrorist organization when he was investigated last year,
the FBI said at a news conference Saturday [1/7/2017] in Anchorage. Law enforcement said he had exhibited mental health
problems during an incident at the Anchorage FBI office that led local police to take his gun.
Ft.
Lauderdale Fighter Claimed He Was Being 'Forced to Fight for ISIS'. Pamela Geller is reporting that the Ft. Lauderdale
shooter today was previously known to the FBI, and that in November he had walked into an FBI office in Anchorage, Alaska[,]
claiming he was being forced to fight for ISIS.
'He
Lost His Mind': Esteban Santiago Identified as Fort Lauderdale Airport Shooter. Florida Senator Bill Nelson
identified the name of the alleged shooter at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport during a Friday afternoon
hit on MSNBC. Senator Nelson told the cable news net during an interview Friday afternoon that the alleged gunman's name is
Esteban Santiago. At this time, five people have been killed at the airport, which has been evacuated.
Fort
Lauderdale Gunman Said He Was "Forced To Fight For ISIS". A law enforcement source identifies the accused
shooter as Esteban Santiago Ruiz, 26, of New Jersey. Sources say he had a concealed weapons permit on him. The
source added he had a minor criminal history.
Ft.
Lauderdale shooting suspect made confused visit to FBI, said US intelligence forced him to watch ISIS videos. Estaban
Santiago, the 26-year-old airline passenger accused of shooting up a baggage claim area at the Ft. Lauderdale-Hollywood airport
Friday [1/6/2017], leaving five dead and eight injured, visited the FBI Anchorage field office and told officers he was being forced
to watch ISIS videos, law enforcement sources told Fox News. The visit took place last November. The sources said Santiago
told agents that US intelligence had infiltrated his mind and were forcing him to watch ISIS propaganda videos. "In November 2016,
Esteban Santiago walked into the Anchorage FBI Field Office to report that his mind was being controlled by a U.S. intelligence agency,"
a senior federal law enforcement official said.
The Editor says...
Hmmm. There are two mutually-exclusive possibilities here: [#1] His mind was being controlled by a U.S. intelligence agency,
in which case the federal government is culpable in the Fort Lauderdale shooting; or [#2] his mind was not being controlled by a
U.S. intelligence agency, in which case the federal government should have locked him up immediately, and put him on the no-fly list,
and made sure he never had access to firearms again until his mental problems were resolved. But none of that happened, so in either case,
the federal government is culpable in the Fort Lauderdale shooting. The FBI had this guy in their office and let him go.
Fort
Lauderdale Airport Shooting — "Terrorism Not Ruled Out". Law enforcement officials say the suspect,
Esteban Santiago, was carrying military identification. He was apprehended and placed in federal custody. He is
expected to face federal charges. Early [Saturday] morning, the Broward County Sheriff's Office posted his booking
record, including booking photo, on its website. According to the record, he was booked on a murder charge.
Ft.Lauderdale
shooting suspect made jihadi gesture in photo as authorities investigate his obsession with terror group. A
photo of Florida airport gunman Esteban Santiago appears to show him making a jihadist one-fingered salute while wearing a
Mid-Eastern keffiyeh sometime prior to him carrying out the shooting massacre. The 26-year-old Iraq war veteran was
pictured in the photo gesturing with his index finger in a pose that has become notorious among supporters of the Islamic State.
It would be stupid to assume otherwise.
Alleged
Ft. Lauderdale airport shooter planned the attack, FBI says. The alleged gunman in the Fort Lauderdale airport fatal
shooting went to Florida specifically to launch the attack that killed five and seriously wounded six, FBI officials said Saturday
[1/7/2017]. After spending hours interrogating the suspect, Esteban Santiago, 26, investigators believe he went to Florida with
a plan to carry out the attack, which FBI officials said can't be ruled out as an act of terrorism.
Fort Lauderdale airport
shooter 'came here specifically' to attack, FBI says. Esteban Santiago went to baggage claim and picked up his
one piece of checked luggage. There were no other bags, just a case with a handgun inside. Santiago allegedly
took the 9 mm handgun out of its case and fired at other travelers Friday afternoon [1/6/2017], killing five people at the
Fort Lauderdale airport. On Saturday, authorities revised the number of wounded to six after earlier saying eight.
A few months earlier he reportedly had a mental evaluation after a bizarre visit to an FBI office in Alaska.
Berlin
December 19, 2016
Morocco
Warned Germany Twice About Berlin Killer Anis Amri; German Intel Did Nothing. A Moroccan security official says
that his country's intelligence service warned Germany twice about the risk posed by Anis Amri, the radical Muslim who slaughtered
12 people at a Christmas market in Berlin earlier this month. The official, who spoke to Turkish newspaper Daily Sabah,
says that the Germans received two written warnings, one on September 19 and the other on October 1, about Amri's
radical Islamic beliefs.
Berlin
attacker had 14 aliases and was subject of repeated counterterror briefings. The Tunisian man who ploughed a
truck into a Berlin Christmas market had lived under 14 aliases and was so well known to German officials that a key
counterterrorism committee discussed his case seven times, suggesting the scale of the missed opportunities to thwart the
December 19 attack. The fresh details about Anis Amri — shot dead in Italy four days after the attack — emerged
Thursday during testimony in the regional parliament of North-Rhine Westphalia, where the suspect once lived. German
officials have already said that Amri had previously been flagged as a terrorism threat. But Ralf Jäger, the
state's interior minister, described for lawmakers in Düsseldorf how the Joint Counter-Terrorism Center, an institution
coordinating the work of Germany's security agencies, had discussed his case repeatedly.
Armed
German commandos storm a Berlin refugee centre and arrest man suspected of aiding Christmas Market killer Anis Amri. Elite
German police commandos stormed a refugee home in Berlin on Tuesday evening to seize a man said to be a supporter of Christmas market
truck killer Anis Amri. Units of the SAS trained GSG9 and the SEK anti-terrorist police swooped on the home in the Spandau district
of the capital shortly before 9.00 pm.
Suspect
in Berlin Christmas market attack shot dead in Milan. The suspect in the Berlin Christmas market attack was
shot dead Friday at a Milan checkpoint by an Italian police trainee, ending an international manhunt but raising new fears as
an Islamic State video purported to show the attacker calling for more bloodshed in Europe. The 24-year-old Tunisian,
Anis Amri, was killed following a dramatic encounter in the Piazza I Maggio in the Sesto San Giovanni area outside Milan,
after a two-man patrol stopped him for questioning around 3:15 a.m. on suspicion of burglary.
Report:
Berlin attack suspect [was] better connected to extremists than thought. Christmas market attack suspect Anis Amri
visited 15 mosques in Germany and had contact with two men with ties to IS, according to a media report. Security
authorities also reportedly labeled him a threat back in May.
Berlin
Attack Suspect Is Killed by Police Near Milan. Anis Amri, the chief suspect in the deadly terrorist attack on a
Christmas market in Berlin this week, was killed by the police in a shootout outside Milan around 3 a.m. Friday [12/23/2016],
ending a brief but intense manhunt across Europe, Italian officials announced. Stopped in the suburb of Sesto San Giovanni,
north of central Milan, Mr. Amri was asked to show identification papers, Italian officials said. He pulled out a
pistol and shot the officer who had asked for the papers. A second officer then opened fire, killing Mr. Amri.
'It's
all too convenient': Questions over how police missed Berlin attack suspect's ID in truck for 24 hours. A
far-right leader in Germany knew the suspect in the Christmas market attack was a Tunisian just two hours after the attack — despite
police initially arresting a Pakistani man, it has emerged. Lutz Bachmann, who fronts the anti-immigrant PEGIDA group, tweeted on
Monday night that he had 'internal police information' about the nationality of the lorry driver who murdered 12 revellers in
Berlin. At the time, police had announced the arrest of a Pakistani asylum seeker — it was only when he was released that
Tunisian Anis Amri was publicly identified as the chief suspect.
The Editor says...
I object to the use of the word revellers to describe sober and peaceful shoppers looking for Christmas decorations.
Go to Mardi Gras and you'll see what revellers means.

That's a big help. German authorities
are asking their citizens for help finding the man who slaughtered twelve and injured another fifty at the Christmas market
in Berlin. So they released his picture to the public. [...] The problem is, Germany has such strict privacy laws, they
can't even publish a picture of a mass murderer who is on the run because they don't want to invade his privacy. The
21-year-old Tunisian asylum-seeker is the most wanted man in Europe today and Germany wants to protect his privacy.
Berlin
terror attack suspect 'was caught on CCTV visiting a mosque' just hours after Christmas market carnage that killed 12
people. A far-right leader in Germany knew the suspect in the Christmas market attack was a Tunisian just two
hours after the attack — despite police initially arresting a Pakistani man, it has emerged. Lutz Bachmann, who fronts
the anti-immigrant PEGIDA group, tweeted on Monday night that he had 'internal police information' about the nationality of
the lorry driver who murdered 12 revellers in Berlin. At the time, police had announced the arrest of a Pakistani
asylum seeker — it was only when he was released that Tunisian Anis Amri was publicly identified as the chief suspect.
System
that produced German terror thrives in U.S.. What appears from the outside to be a bungling of basic
law-enforcement operations in Germany — allowing a known illegal alien with a criminal and terrorist past to move
about freely in German society for more than a year — may not be a bungling at all. Rather, it's part of a
coordinated strategy also being used by open-borders globalists in the Obama administration, says a retired Homeland Security
officer. Philip Haney, co-author of the whistleblower book "See Something Say Nothing," explains how a Muslim migrant
was able to stay in the country long enough to plan an attack that killed 12 and injured nearly 50 at a Berlin Christmas
market Monday. This, despite being under surveillance by the German government for months.
German
Lesson: Islamist Enclaves Breed Jihadism. German investigators have named a Tunisian refugee, Anis Amri,
as the jihadist whom they suspect carried out Tuesday's mass-murder attack. Amri is believed to be the man who drove a
truck through a Christmas festival in Berlin, killing twelve and wounding four dozen others in an atrocity reminiscent of the
attack in July, when 86 people were killed at a Bastille Day celebration in Nice. Notwithstanding that they arrested
and held the wrong man for several hours, it turns out that German authorities have been well aware that Amri posed a danger.
He is yet another of what my friend the terrorism analyst Patrick Poole has dubbed "known wolves" — Islamic terrorists
who were already spotlighted by counterterrorism investigators as likely to strike. Amri, who is variously reported to be
23 or 24, arrived in Germany in July 2015 as an asylum-seeker. He was able to remain because of Chancellor Angela Merkel's
suicidal open-door policy for refugees from the Muslim Middle East and North Africa.
Berlin
attack: Tunisian police arrest nephew of Christmas market terror suspect Anis Amri. Tunisian police have
arrested the nephew of the suspected Berlin Christmas market attacker and two other men thought to be connected to Anis
Amri. A statement says the three suspects were members of a "terrorist cell" that was "connected to the terrorist Anis
Amri who carried out the terrorist attack in Berlin". This trio, according to Tunisia's Interior Ministry, includes
18-year-old nephew "Fredi" who Amri allegedly sent money to so he could join him in Germany.
Tunisian
suspect in Berlin Christmas market attack faced past German terror probe, official says. The prime suspect
sought in the deadly attack on a Berlin Christmas market — a 24-year-old Tunisian migrant — was the
subject of a terrorism probe in Germany earlier this year and was not deported even though his asylum bid was rejected, a
senior German official said Wednesday [12/21/2016]. The suspect — who went by numerous aliases but was
identified by German authorities as Anis Amri — became the subject of a national manhunt after investigators
discovered a wallet with his identity documents in the truck used in Monday's attack that left 12 dead, two law enforcement
officials told The Washington Post. Meanwhile, a clearer portrait took shape of the suspect, including accusations that
he had contact with a prominent Islamic State recruiter in Germany.
German
political analyst: After Berlin jihad attack, Merkel is ruined, open door will close. The Berlin truck
attack follows a series of other "lone wolf" attacks that some experts try to diminish in importance; however, the "Berlin
bloodbath" appears to be a tipping point.
Geert
Wilders Warns "Political Revolution Is Brewing In Europe". Yesterday, the Islamic State claimed the Berlin
terror attack of Monday evening, in which twelve people were killed with a truck at a Christmas market. The killer
managed to escape. However, in the truck the police found identity papers belonging to Anis A., a Tunisian who came
to Germany as an asylum seeker in 2015. When last year German Chancellor Angela Merkel opened Germany's borders to almost one
million refugees and asylum seekers, she invited the Trojan horse of Islam into her country. Among the so-called refugees
were many young men of Islamic background, filled with hatred for the West and its civilization. One of them was Anis A.
It took almost a year for the German authorities to reject his asylum request, but meanwhile the man had disappeared.
Germany
could not deport Berlin truck jihad attacker because of missing paperwork. From one bungle to another, with
some authorities not taking the jihad threat seriously enough, even when it was right in front of their faces. Anis
Amri spent four years in jail in Italy for burning down a school, and then left the country for Germany last year.
Since then, he was arrested at least three times and was identified as an ISIS supporter who received weapons training, but
authorities kept on losing him; now it's revealed that missing paperwork precluded him from being kicked out of Germany.

'It was as cold-blooded
and monstrous as you can possibly be!' This is the worst of possible worlds for the authorities, who have no evidence they can
point to that it was a terrorist attack, while ISIS is taking responsibility, and even Merkel is calling it terrorism. But it's hard
to think of another possible motive given all the circumstantial evidence.
Christmas
Market Massacre Proves Ignoring Muslim Warnings Will Get You Killed. Hidden in the media coverage of the
carnage at Berlin's Weihnachtsmarkt (Christmas Market) was a hint or two that German intelligence had some previous
indication that Christmas markets and other Christian holiday celebrations were potential targets for Muslim
terrorists. In actuality the warnings, both tactical and strategic, were not mere "indications"; they were clear for
all who wished to heed them.
Tunisian
asylum seeker, 23, suspected of carrying out Berlin massacre was arrested three times this year. Armed police
tonight stormed two apartments in the hunt for the Berlin terror attack suspect after it was revealed he had been under the
surveillance of German intelligence agencies for several months. Commandos raided two addresses in Berlin's Kreuzberg
neighbourhood as police launched a Europe-wide search for Tunisian national Anis Amri, who remains on the run more than
48 hours after the atrocity which claimed 12 lives.

and terrorists.
For What It's Worth.
Over the summer, I met a lady from southern Germany who had found herself on the receiving end of some vibrant multicultural
outreach from one of Mutti Merkel's boy charmers. As a result, she no longer goes out after dark. She had also
decided — with reluctance, because she enjoyed it — to cancel her participation in a local Christmas
market, where she'd sung carols every year — in broad daylight. "Why would you do that?" I asked.
"Because it's Christmas," she said, "and I'm worried Christmas will be a target."
On
Trucks As Tools Of Terror. Angela Merkel imported the terrorist who killed people with a large truck and
trailer laden with steel. She has imported terror into Germany. She is an idiot, and should be deposed,
immediately. [...] Now, the intellectuals among you will read this, and you will pass over the fact that a heavy truck was
used in this most recent terror attack in Berlin, just as you failed to note something of importance in the Nice, France
attack in which a heavy truck was used. You smart people think that just anyone can get into a truck and drive
it. Nothing could be less true than to suppose this. [...] This is Angela M.'s fault. She has been played like
a fiddle by Islamic terror. She is the ultimate useful idiot to the mullahs and terrorist leaders who plan this sort of
stuff. And, she is an architect of the Euro Union stupidity on immigration policies for Middle Eastern "refugees."
How
many more atrocities before our leaders stop lying to us and admit that, thanks to their immigration policies, being mowed
down while doing your Christmas shopping is simply the new normal? 'We will do whatever is necessary.
That means long-range weapons, short weapons, machine guns, even if this sounds martial.' These were the words of German
politician Klaus Bouillon, a member of Mrs Merkel's CDU party, in response to yet another slaughter of innocents, this time
at a Christmas market in Berlin. Of course, Merkel wasn't around to respond to the horror as it unfolded. She was
attending an award ceremony to celebrate the International Day of Migrants even as it seemed one of the 1.1 million she has
let into the country tore another hole in her people and in Germany's cultural life.
Dr.
Sebastian Gorka: 'The front line is when you leave your house in the morning'. National security expert
Dr. Sebastian Gorka said that Monday's attack on a Christmas market in Berlin, Germany represented "the sad reality" of
the fight against terrorism. "There is no front line like there was in World War I and World War II," Gorka told Eric
Bolling on "Hannity" Monday night. "The front line is when you leave your house in the morning or when you go to a
Christmas market in downtown Berlin."
German
authorities 'knew about Christmas market terror plot days before the Berlin lorry attack was carried out'.
Berlin authorities may have known that a Christmas market terror attack was being planned days before it took place, it has
been reported. A 23-year-old Pakistani asylum seeker named as Naved B, who entered the country under a false name,
was arrested on suspecion of murdering 12 and injuring dozens by ploughing a lorry into crowds gathered outside the Kaiser
Wilhelm Memorial Church last night [12/19/2016]. However, there are reports in Germany that police now believe he was
not the perpetrator and that the true attacker is 'still armed, at large and can cause fresh damage.'
German
police 'arrested wrong man': Truck driver is 'still at large and armed'. German newspaper Die Welt has quoted
police sources as saying the suspect arrested last night is not the man who carried out the attack. The publication
reports that the terrorist who carried out the truck killings is still at large and is 'likely to be armed and able to carry
out further attacks.' A Pakistani refugee named only as Naved B. was named as the prime suspect in the Berlin
Christmas market attack.
Deadly
Berlin Christmas Market Episode Is Latest in Europe. A truck driver barreled into a crowded Christmas market in
Berlin on Monday night, killing at least 12 people and injuring scores more. The police believed it to be an attack,
but the identity of any attackers and their motives were not immediately clear. It was the most recent deadly episode
to shake Europe in the last two years. Many recent attacks have been linked to jihadists, and some to the Islamic
State, also known as ISIS.
Hey,
Remember All That "Fearmongering" About Muslim Refugee Terror? When Merkel threw open the doors to the
calamitous horde of migrants, she ushered in utter disaster. The myth about Muslim refugee immunity from terror had
already been collapsing. These days it's on its last legs but in the United States, the usual suspects will still
strive to offer the usual arguments. Reality is hard to beat in a debate though. And reality is as grim as the
horror that took place in Berlin. Muslim refugees are a cold wind that blows terror through the cracks in the open
borders of the world. Walls don't make good neighbors. They prevent horrors like the one that was inflicted on
Christmas shoppers in Berlin.
CNN Uses
Germany Attack To Bash The Right. CNN's online coverage of Monday's deadly terror attack on a German Christmas
market focused on the attack's potential to stoke far-right anger, rather than the threats of Islamic radicalism. The
attack in Berlin killed at least 12 people and injured dozens more, but on CNN's website, the network's top story warned
about "the fallout of fear" and said that "attacks fuel [the] far right's assault on democracy."
Trump
says terrorists 'must be eradicated from the face of the earth' after 12 died and 48 hurt when lorry ploughs into Berlin
market. Donald Trump has vowed to 'eradicate' terrorists from the 'face of the earth' after 12 people were
killed at a Berlin Christmas market. The president-elect said it was a 'horrifying terror attack' and would push the US
and its 'freedom-loving partners' to take on ISIS. His comments were made after a lorry packed with steel ploughed into
dozens of shoppers perusing stalls. At least 12 were killed and 50 injured at around 8.30pm local time on Monday,
police said.
German
far-right blames Angela Merkel's open-door migrant policy for Berlin truck attack. German Chancellor Angela
Merkel is facing a backlash after 12 people were killed when an attacker ploughed through innocent revellers at a Christmas
market in a truck. [...] "These are Merkel's dead," Marcus Pretzell, chairman of the Alternative for Germany party in the
western state of North Rhine-Westphalia, posted on Twitter. And Klaus Bouillon of Mrs Merkel's CDU party said told Saarland
radio: "We must state that we are in a state of war, although some people who want to see only the good can not see."
The
terrorist attack on Berlin's Christmas market ended my leftie fantasy about Germany. Details are still emerging
about what happened at the Christmas market. Events already being stitched into the extraordinary narrative surrounding
"Islamist terror", generally reserved for atrocities committed on European soil. One nice thing about the darkness, my
friend pointed out, is that it makes the Christmas lights seem that much brighter. Since Britain voted to leave the EU
in June and the US elected Donald Trump to be its 45th president, I have been pompously reminding people in Berlin that we
are living on an island, part of an archipelago of liberal values around which the sea is rising fast. As the news
spread over Monday night — 12 people are now known to have died and 48 were injured after a 32-tonne goods lorry
careered off the road and ploughed into a busy Christmas market — I tried to answer texts and worried phone calls,
some of which quite honestly seemed a little OTT, until I discovered that one of my friends was unaccounted for and started
doing exactly the same thing.
Angela
Merkel was warned of Christmas massacre just weeks ago. German officials were warned jihadists were planning to strike
Christmas markets — just weeks before the horrific attack in Berlin. At least 12 people were killed
last night after a suspected ISIS militant ploughed a lorry into a festive market in the German capital. Last month, US
counter-terror experts warned European countries of a "heightened risk of terror attacks" at Christmas-themed events.

who narrowly escaped death in Berlin Christmas market massacre describe how they saw 'rivers of blood' as the horror
unfolded. Tourists saw a young child being crushed underneath the hijacked truck which ploughed through a
Berlin Christmas market last night, killing 12 and wounding around 50. Mike Fox and his partner were a 'few metres' from
being run down by the lorry driven by a Pakistani asylum seeker Naved B, 23, who has only been in the country a few months.
Truck
ploughs into crowd at Christmas market in Berlin terrorist attack: many dead, 50 hurt. Berlin police have
confirmed the horrific truck crash which ploughed into a bustling Christmas market and killed 12 people and left
at least 50 others injured was "probably" a terrorist attack. The German police force announced via their
Twitter account that incident is a "deliberate" suspected terror attack on German shoppers. Counter-terrorism forces
have taken over the investigation while security forces are set to step-up their security efforts across Germany and the
rest of Europe.
Lorry
ploughs into crowd of shoppers killing one at Christmas market in Berlin sparking fears of a terror attack. The
Berlin Christmas market killer may still be on the loose with a gun and ready to inflict 'further damage' 12 hours after an
asylum seeker from Pakistan was chased down and arrested, a senior police chief said today [12/19/2016]. Detectives
interrogating suspect Naved B, 23, have said he has no blood on his clothes, no injuries and denies hijacking a 25-tonne
lorry and using it to murder 12 people and injure 48 more last night. A security services source, a senior police
chief, told die Welt newspaper: 'We have the wrong man. So we have a new situation. The true perpetrator is
still armed, at large and can cause further damage.'
That
Berlin Truck Attack Is Going To Cause Problems For Merkel. Yesterday [12/19/2016] John Sexton provided a solid,
blow by blow examination of the terror attack on Berlin's Christmas market and it was indeed brutal. With a dozen dead
and scores injured, this will be recorded as one of more "successful" of the low tech, low budget Islamic terror attacks on
European soil. The Daily Mail has an extensive collection of photos, videos and interviews from the scene and during
the aftermath if you're in the mood for some very depressing doom porn. But with the confirmed identification of the
terrorist responsible for the carnage they also highlight the factor which could spell serious trouble for Chancellor Angela
Merkel as she seeks another term in office next year.
Ankara, Turkey
December 18, 2016
'It's astounding
how close Turkish assassin got to Russian ambassador'. The assassination of the Russian ambassador in Turkey
looks like a jihadist retribution for losses in Syria, but it might have a deeper motivation, such as damaging Russia-Turkey
relations or taking terrorism to a whole new level, political analysts and experts told RT. Russian ambassador Andrey
Karlov, 62, was fatally shot in the Turkish capital of Ankara while delivering a speech at an art gallery on Monday.
The man who assassinated the Russian diplomat was identified as a 22-year-old officer with the Turkish riot police.
CNN:
'No Guarantee' Allahu Akbar-Screaming Assassin In Turkey 'Speaks For Muslims'. The world is still in shock
after a rogue police officer gunned down the Russian ambassador to Turkey and shouted "Allahu akbar" Monday, but one of CNN's
priorities was apparently to claim the jihadi doesn't "speak for Muslims," as if people might think he were an elected
official and not a murderous Islamic extremist.
Missing
from media headlines, Russian ambassador killed by gunman screaming 'allah akbar'. Another example of why the
media can't be trusted and how they cower in fear to Muslims. They are the real Islamophobes.
The most
terrifying part of this incident wasn't caught on camera. Yesterday's entire horrific episode was caught on
camera for the world to see. The Russian Ambassador to Turkey was shot in the back at an art gallery as he stood at a
podium to speak. As I watched the news unfold, I immediately considered the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand and his
wife back in Sarajevo by a Serbian nationalist. That singular incident launched the world into what would be known as
World War I. Is that what's coming?
Russian
ambassador is shot dead by gunman screaming 'Allahu akbar'. The Russian ambassador to Turkey was last night
shot dead by an off-duty Turkish police officer at an art gallery in Ankara in 'revenge' for the conflict in Syria.
Ambassador Andrei Karlov, 62, was shot several times from behind by a gunman shouting: 'Allahu Akbar (God is Great).
We die in Aleppo, you die here!' He also screamed: 'Only death will take me out of here.' The shooter, who was
wearing a suit and tie, has been identified as Mevlüt Mert Altintas, 22, a member of Ankara's police riot squad. He
reportedly fired into the air before taking aim at the ambassador.
Russia's ambassador
to Turkey killed in Ankara shooting. A gunman shouting "Do not forget Aleppo!" assassinated Russia's ambassador
to Turkey at an Ankara art gallery on Monday [12/19/2016] in what leaders of Russia and Turkey called a provocative terror
attack. Ambassador Andrey Karlov's shooting was captured in real time in photos and video that quickly spread through
the Internet worldwide.
Russian

Grassley:
Homeland Security 'Missed Signs of Possible Link to Terrorism' In Somali Refugee Who Attacked Eleven.
Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) tells Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson in a letter that DHS "missed signs of possible
link to terrorism" when it vetted Somali refugee Abdul Razak Ali Artan, his mother, and six siblings in 2013. Artan
attacked eleven people with a car and then a knife on November 28 on the campus of Ohio State University before a campus
police officer shot and killed him.
Ending
Multicultural Madness. On November 28, Abdul Razak Ali Artan, a Somali-born Muslim inspired by ISIS, went on a
rampage at Ohio State University. He injured 11 when he rammed his car into a group of students with murderous intent
and then immediately went on a knife attack before campus security shot him dead. No soon had this fanatic's body
reached room temperature then Stephanie Clemons Thompson, employed as something called an "assistant director of resident
life a Ohio State," started calling for sympathy and compassion for Artan and lamented that he was taken out so quickly.
[...] One has to wonder how many others like Abdul Razak Ali Artan are here existing like potential time bombs, ready to
explode if America does not show what they consider to be proper deference to them and their religion.
10 Things We Should Learn
From the Ohio State Attack. Americans returned from Thanksgiving to news of the latest jihadi attack waged by a
Somali Muslim, Abdul Razak Ali Artan. [...] Artan was a legal resident who came to the US through Pakistan in 2014. He
arrived with his family, securing a refugee status after having escaped from Somalia. Ohio State University President
Michael V. Drake, along with Ohio State Governor John Kasich, shied away from identifying the cause of the attack.
This despite Artan's last Facebook post embracing a chilling message that in part read, "By Allah, we will not let you sleep
unless you give peace to the Muslims..." Terrorism expert Walid Phares is clear about the motive. In private
correspondence, Dr. Phares shares his belief that the Ohio State attack is "Another case of urban Jihadism. At
this point the issue isn't even a link or not to ISIS or al Qaeda, but a link to the specific ideology called Jihadism.
This is the generator of terror."
OSU
Activists Complain Terrorist Was Wrongly Shot By Police. An Ohio State University (OSU) student who attempted
to go on a stabbing spree last month before being gunned down by a nearby officer has been added to a protest list of
non-whites "wrongly" shot and killed by a police. The OSU Coalition for Black Liberation is a campus protest group on
OSU's main campus in Columbus. The group held a rally Wednesday to protest the death of young black men at the hands of
police, and read off a list of non-white men who had been killed by police in the last two months. Among the names read
off was that of Abdul Razak Ali Artan. Artan, of course, is the man who attempted to kill his classmates last week by
attacking them with his car and then going on a stabbing spree.
Ten
Unanswered Questions About the Refugee Resettlement Program and Somali Attacker at Ohio State. The story of
Abdul Razak Ali Artan's two and a half years in the United States reveals the many weaknesses of the federal refugee
resettlement program. Breitbart News has put together a list of ten unanswered questions about Artan, the Somali
refugee who on Monday attacked eleven people on the campus of Ohio State University, first with a car and then with a knife,
before he was shot and killed by a campus police officer.
Lawyer
Says Ohio State Attacker's Family 'Very Afraid' After Trump Tweet. The family of Abdul Razak Ali Artan is
finally speaking out through an attorney, one week after authorities say their son was responsible for an attack at Ohio
State University that wounded 11 people. Artan was killed during the attack by a police officer who responded to the
scene. The family's attorney, Robert Fitrakis, spoke to VOANews.com and said the family is deeply concerned for their
safety as a result of a tweet from President-elect Donald Trump in the aftermath of he attack.
US
govt loaned money to OSU jihadi refugee to fly to America. Of course U.S. government money is money pilfered
from American taxpayers — who are financially supporting millions of Muslim "refugees" and illegal aliens.
Somali
teen in Ohio State 'ISIS' attack was given home in US by Christian charity. THE Somali teenager who injured 11
people with a butcher's knife at Ohio State University was given money and a home by a Christian charity when he arrived in
the United States, it has been claimed. Devout Muslim Abdul Razak Ali Artan was shot dead by police after he ploughed a
car into 11 people at the university's Columbus campus on Monday before jumping out of his vehicle and stabbing people with a
butcher's knife. Many of the injured are still in hospital three days later.
FBI: 'Too
soon' to call Monday's attack terrorism. It's too soon to call the attack on Ohio State's campus on Monday an
act of terrorism, although the student who sent 11 people to the hospital might have been inspired by the deceased
al Qaeda-linked terrorist Anwar al-Awlaki, as well as Islamic State. "It's too soon to draw any conclusions if this
is terrorism," FBI special agent Angela Byers said at a news conference held with the Columbus Division of Police on Wednesday
afternoon [11/30/2016].
Ohio State
Knife Attacker Abdul Artan Was Taking a Class About Microaggressions. Before he was shot dead while attempting
to murder a bunch of people with a car and a butcher's knife, Ohio State University student Abdul Artan — a
Somali-born Pakistani immigrant who reportedly became radicalized after learning about injustices committed against fellow
Muslims — was enrolled in a class called "Crossing Identity Boundaries." In fact, he had a group project on
"microaggressions" due later this week. The assignment, worth 15 percent of his grade, required students to find a
dozen examples of microaggressions on social media and explain which identity groups were the victims, according to the
syllabus. The purpose of the class is to promote "intercultural leadership" and transform students into "actively
engaged, socially just global citizen/leaders." It seems to go well beyond merely educating students, though —
it actually requires them to become social justice activists.
One
suspect dead, 9 injured after attack at Ohio State University involving car, butcher knife. A Somali-born
student at Ohio State University injured 11 people, one of them critically, on Monday when he attacked a crowd of pedestrians
on campus in an incident one lawmaker said "bears all the hallmarks of a terror attack." Authorities said Abdul Razak Ali
Artan, 18, plowed a small gray Honda into the crowd outside Watts Hall, an engineering classroom building, just before
10 a.m. ET. Artan then got out of the vehicle and attacked people with a butcher knife before he was shot and
killed by a campus police officer.
The Editor says...
One tiny detail was omitted: The campus police officer was the closest
person with a gun. That's the reason this Islamic terrorist's
rampage didn't continue for the rest of the day.
Meet
the Hero Cop Who Took Down the Somali Stabber at Ohio State. Abdul Razak Ali Artan's "ram and stab" rampage at
Ohio State University Monday morning [11/28/2016] sent ten people to the hospital — including one who is in
critical condition — but it could have been much, much worse. Thanks to the quick actions of 28-year-old
Ohio State University officer Alan Horujko, the threat was eliminated in less than two minutes. The officer was
in the area responding to a fire alarm when Artan plowed his vehicle into a number of pedestrians and then jumped out and
started stabbing at them.
What Was
Ohio State Maniac Abdul Razak Ali Artan Doing Here? A better question than Abdul Razak Ali Artan's motive for
going berserk at Ohio State yesterday is what the Somali maniac was doing in our country. [...] Religiously affiliated
nonprofits have been raking in a fortune by helping the government bring in Muslim colonists from terrorist breeding grounds
like Somalia.
Tucker
Carlson vs BLM Advocate Who Questioned Heroism of White OSU Cop. On Monday, Tariq Nasheed, a filmmaker who's
Twitter bio reads "Anti-Racism Strategist," posted a racially-charged tweet seemingly questioning the fact that the Ohio
State University cop who shot and killed Abdul Razak Ali Artan is being hailed as a hero.
NBC
News: OSU Terrorist's Friends Think He 'Loved America'. Wouldn't you know it: friends of Abdul Razak Ali
Artan, the Somali refugee who terrorized the Ohio State university campus in a knife-wielding ambush, say that he "loved America."
Forget the message Artan posted on Facebook only minutes before his murderous rampage, which spoke of hatred of the United States while
mentioning ISIS and "lone wolf attacks." NBC News took the time to interview friends of Artan's; their protestations that the warm,
loving Artan loved America should mitigate our anger at someone who violently knifed innocent young people.
Authorities:
Ohio State attacker likely inspired by radical cleric. Authorities say the attacker at Ohio State was at least
inspired by American-born cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, a leader of al Qaeda in Yemen who was killed by an American drone strike.
But Angela Byers, special agent in charge of the FBI's Cincinnati division, said it's too early to speculate on the extent of
Abdul Razak Ali Artan's involvement with ISIS.
Former
DHS Secretary Chertoff: No Changes in Refugee Policy Needed After Ohio State Attack. Former Homeland
Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said the U.S. government does not need to change the number of refugees it allows into
the country after the Ohio State University attack because people who are not refugees have committed similar crimes.
Abdul Razak Ali Artan, 20, was a refugee from Somalia who drove into a crowd of pedestrians and stabbed people with a butcher
knife at Ohio State University on Monday. ISIS claimed Artan was one of their lone wolves.
(Knee)-Jerk
of the Week: Tim Kaine was really in a hurry to blame the NRA for attack at Ohio State. Yesterday a man
described as an 18-year-old Somali refugee (Obama's still trying to determine if he should be categorized as "widow" or
"orphan") injured many people at Ohio State by ramming them with a car and slashing others with a knife. The sound of a
campus officer taking down the attacker with a gun led to early reports of an "active shooter" situation, but Hillary's
former running-mate Tim Kaine didn't need to wait for any more details because his lefty instinct had kicked in.
Mosque
Near Ohio State Campus Has History Of Attendees With Terror Ties. Columbus, Ohio, is no stranger to attacks
like the one seen at Ohio State University Monday and a controversial mosque just a mile from OSU has already been at he
center of six separate terror cases. It is presently unknown if the suspect at OSU Monday, Abdul Razak Ali Artan,
attended the Masjid Omar Ibn El Khattab mosque, but the mosque has a history of former attendees who have been involved in
terror activities.
Islamic
State: OSU attacker was 'soldier' of group. The media arm of the Islamic State claimed Tuesday that the
Ohio State student who crashed a car into campus crowd and then lashed out with a butcher knife was a "soldier" of the
terror group who heeded appeals to strike the U.S., and its allies. The claim issued by Amaq news agency makes no
suggestion that the assailant, Abdul Razak Artan, had been in direct contact with the group or was formally affiliated with
the organization, according to a transcript of the report provided by SITE Intelligence Group, which monitors radical organizations.
ISIS
claims responsibility for Ohio State attack. The Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) has claimed
responsibility for Monday's attack at Ohio State University that injured nine. The terror group's Amaq News Agency on
Tuesday claimed the attack, carried out by an 18-year-old Ohio State student, was perpetrated by a "soldier of the Islamic
State." Authorities have not commented on what motivated the attack but could not rule out the possibility of
terrorism. Abdul Razak Ali Artan hit a crowd of pedestrians with a car before stabbing several people with a butcher
knife Monday morning on Ohio State's campus.
Ohio
State Attacker: 'By Allah, I Am Willing To Kill A Billion Infidels'. A chilling Facebook message is shedding
new light on the motive behind yesterday's attack on the campus of Ohio State University. Authorities say Abdul Ali
Artan, a Somali-refugee with permanent resident status, drove his car into a crowd of OSU students and attacked them with a
large knife before being shot by campus police. He injured at least nine people, several of whom are still recovering
in local hospitals. In a Facebook post he published shortly before he embarked on his violent rampage, Artan said he
had reached a "boiling point" and that he "just couldn't take it anymore."
Flashback:
Somali Man Attacked People With Machete In Ohio In February. A 20-year-old Somali refugee identified as "Abdul
Razak Ali Artan" is believed to be the man behind a knife and car attack on the Ohio State University campus that injured
nine on Monday. Although details are still coming in, this is not the first attack perpetrated by a Somali refugee in
the State of Ohio this year. On February 4th of this year, four people were injured when a machete wielding Somali man
named Mohammed Barry attacked people in a Columbus, Ohio deli.
Rep.
Peter King: 'Up to 40 Somali Americans' Have Become 'ISIS Terrorists'. Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.), a member
of the Homeland Security Committee, said Monday's attack at the Ohio State University "has all the indicators of terrorism,"
including a Somali refugee as the suspect and the use of a knife and a vehicle to harm people, as ISIS has encouraged its
followers to do. "There's been a real problem with the (American) Somali community as far as having a large number of
Al-Shabaab supporters," King told Fox News's Megyn Kelly Monday night. As CNSNews.com reported on Tuesday [11/29/2016],
nearly 100,000 Somali refugees have been admitted into the United States since the 9/11 terrorist attacks, including 9,020
during fiscal year 2016 and 1,352 last month alone.
Ohio
State attacker praised ex-Al Qaeda leader as 'hero' online, sources say. Investigators have found evidence that
the man who plowed a car into a crowd at Ohio State University Monday before stabbing several pedestrians with a butcher
knife was inspired by ISIS propaganda, law enforcement sources told Fox News. The sources did not specify what evidence
was found, but investigators are inclined to believe that the attacker, 18-year-old Abdul Razak Ali Artan, was "self-radicalized."
Artan also praised American-born Al Qaeda cleric Anwar al-Awlaki as a "hero" and railed against U.S. interference in Muslim lands
in a series of Facebook posts, officials said.
The Editor says...
Allow me to ask the obvious question: If you hate America so much, why did you come here?
The Victim Mentality
Kills. Take a good look at the Facebook post of the Ohio State University attacker. Sure, there's plenty
of that familiar jihadist rhetoric. "America, stop interfering with other countries, especially the Muslim Ummah.
We are not weak... By Allah, we will not let you sleep unless you give peace to the Muslims. You will not celebrate or
enjoy any holiday." But what comes through most is this whining sense of victimhood, that he's forced to commit these
atrocious, barbaric attacks on innocent people out of a righteous sense of self-defense to protect his feelings.
Somali
Refugee Stabs Students, Left Blames Guns. So, it turns out that the supposed mass shooting at Ohio State
University today was actually a mass stabbing allegedly perpetrated by a 20-year-old Somali refugee named Ali Mohammed, who
drove his car into a crowd and then hopped out, hacking innocents with a butcher knife. This has been a humiliating
experience for the left, which immediately jumped to typical gun control talking points based on their desired story.
OSU
jihadi Abdul Artan lived in Pakistan before coming to US as "refugee," used car registered to Mohamed Ali. The
question of the jihad attacker's identity seems to be solved now. Also, Columbus Police Chief Kim Jacobs was
refreshingly honest, saying: "I think we have to consider that it is" a terror attack.

conversation about yesterday's OSU terrorist attack carried out by a Somali refugee using a machete to attack students, CNN

The Editor asks...
Why should we be "in solidarity" with homicidal maniacs bent on world domination?
Ohio
State Jihad Attacker Named Abdul Razak Ali Artan, Vehicle Used in Attack Belonged to Mohammad Ali. In a
previous reports, the attacker was named as Mohamed Ali. NBC News is now identifying the attacker as Abdul Razak Ali
Artan. The vehicle involved in the incident is registered to Mohammad Ali from Columbus. It is unknown how many
were involved in this jihad cell. Ten people were wounded after Abdul Ali drove into pedestrians with a vehicle and
attacked others with a machete at Ohio State's campus[,] one of the largest in America. Officials at Ohio State said the
vehicle drove onto campus, hitting victims when the jihadi got out of his vehicle and starting attacking people in the area
with a butcher knife.
OSU
Diversity Officer Urges Compassion for Somali Terrorist Who Attacked Students. The Ohio State University
assistant director of residence life allegedly expressed sympathy for Somali stabber Abdul Razak Ali Artan in a bizarre
Facebook post Monday that has since gone viral. Stephanie Clemons Thompson urged her followers to have compassion for
Artan after he expressed a desire "to kill a billion infidels" and then tried to kill as many as he could at OSU. She also
urged people to "think of the pain he must have been in," [...]
The Editor says...
On the contrary, we should consider the pain inflicted by this Muslim terrorist, and the additional pain and death he would have inflicted if given the
chance — not to mention the pain and death his fellow Muslim terrorists from Somalia will inflict when they get an opportunity.
Update:
Ohio
State University administrator faces calls for dismissal after seeking compassion for student who attacked.
Ohio State University's assistant director of residence life is facing calls for her dismissal after asking for compassion
for Abdul Razak Ali Artan, who was killed after injuring 11 people in a car and knife attack Monday. [...] Stephanie Clemons
Thompson posted a message to Facebook, including a reference to the Black Lives Matter movement, on Tuesday chiding those who
celebrated Artan's death and posted photos of his body. While she wrote the message should not be shared, screenshots
were soon circulating on social media.
Ohio
State Suspect Had Tie to Dallas. It was June 5, 2014 when a young teenager named Abul Razak Ali Artan arrived
in Dallas with his mother and six siblings. A little more than two years before he was the suspect in a violent knife
attack on the Ohio State campus. "We gave them aid and comfort and some shelter as part of the government resettlement
program," explained Catholic Charities C.E.O. Dave Woodyard. The Somali immigrants arrived from Pakistan at D/FW
International Airport via JFK International Airport.
The Editor says...
Whether or not the OSU killer came through the DFW airport is irrelevant and immaterial. Texas (especially Dallas) TV stations are always
on the lookout for a "Texas connection" to every news story. It's nothing more than ratings-driven sensationalism.
Ohio
State Attacker Described Himself as a 'Scared' Muslim. An apparent attack at Ohio State University on Monday
morning [11/28/2016] has left at least ten people injured after Abdul Razak Ali Artan struck them with his car and slashed
them with a knife. Artan was shot dead by police shortly after the attack began at approximately 9:52 a.m., director
of public service Monica Moll said at a afternoon press conference. Artan aimed his Honda Civic at a group of pedestrains,
jumping the curb, and colliding with them. Artan then exited the vehicle and began slashing pedestrians. By
9:53 a.m. — less than one minute following the start of the attack — responding officer Alan Horujko
shot and killed Artan. No other people are suspected in the attack.
Useful
idiots offer 'chalk therapy' to comfort Somali Muslim invaders who live in fear of a backlash following the latest Somali
Muslim terror attack. Go right ahead, you bleeding heart leftist idiots in Minnesotastan, open up your hearts
and your legs to Somali Muslims, then sit back and see what they have in store for you. Or did you miss the news about
a Somali Muslim terrorist who used his car to run down and stab 10 people at Ohio State University? It was in
all the papers. [Video clip]
Ohio State Attack:
Terrorism Eyed as Police Seek More Info. Investigators are looking into whether a car-and-knife attack at Ohio
State University that injured 11 people was an act of terror by a Somali-born student who had once criticized the media
for its portrayal of Muslims.
You reap what you sow.
Ohio
State students and faculty pushed hard for more Islamic immigration. The case of Abdul Razak Ali Artan, the
Somali-born Islamic terrorist who ran over and stabbed 11 people with a butcher knife at Ohio State may be what President
Obama calls a "teachable moment." We can feel great sympathy for the victims, but it is also fair to point out that some of
the policies advocated by said victims helped contribute to this tragedy. And the fact is that a large number of Ohio State
faculty and students are strongly pro-Islamic immigration.
Trump:
Ohio State terrorist 'shouldn't have been in country'. The Ohio State University terrorist "should not have
been" in the United States, according to the next president. "ISIS is taking credit for the terrible stabbing attack at
Ohio State University by a Somali refugee who should not have been in our country," Donald Trump said in a tweet Wednesday
morning [11/30/2016].
On
His First Day, Trump Could Stop More [Terrorist Attacks] From Happening. An 18-year-old Somali refugee
reportedly ran his car into a group of pedestrians on campus, before attacking them with a knife. At least 9 people
have been injured, although thankfully there are no deaths yet — except for the attacker, but I was talking about
real people. The immigrant, by the way, came to the US just a few years ago. He's an Obama-era addition to
America. And he was at a public school, meaning taxpayer money was spent on his education. Perhaps some
enterprising student journalist will let us know how much. The attack was carried out with a car and a knife, so
naturally leftists — including the man who was almost Vice President — and the mainstream (fake news)
media are already blaming Ohio's lack of gun control.
Ohio
State police officer hailed for swiftly killing attacker. The 28-year-old police officer who shot and killed the man behind Monday's
[11/28/2016] attacks at Ohio State University is being hailed for his quick actions. "Our officer was on scene in less than a minute and he
ended the situation in less than a minute," Ohio State University Police Chief Craig Stone said at a press conference Monday afternoon.
Ohio
State Attacker Identified: Everything We Know About Abdul Razak Ali Artan. The man behind Monday's
horrific attack at Ohio State University has been identified as Abdul Razak Ali Artan. Ohio law enforcement officials
confirmed to NBC News Monday afternoon that Artan — an 18-year-old freshman at OSU — was the man who
plowed a car into a crowd of people on campus and subsequently attacked passers-by with a butcher's knife.
Ohio
State University knifeman slammed US media for making him 'scared' to pray in public. The extremist and Ohio
State University student, who stabbed and shot 11 people on his campus yesterday, previously slammed the US media for making
him "scared" to pray in public. Speaking to The Lantern, his university paper in August, Abdul Razak Ali Artan, said he
continuously complained about America's treatment of Muslims to his mother. In the article, Artan — a Somalian
refugee — said: "If people look at me, a Muslim praying, I don't know what they're going to think, what's going to
happen. "I am a Muslim, it's not what the media portrays me to be."

"active shooter" on the Ohio State University campus Monday, Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) tweeted about the "senseless act of
gun violence" before updating the campus attack was performed with a car and a knife. "Deeply saddened by the senseless
act of gun violence at Ohio State this morning. Praying for the injured and the entire Buckeye community," Kaine tweeted
at 11:58 AM. The Associated Press reports authorities are saying nine people were injured at Ohio State University
when an attacker purposely drove over a curb and into pedestrians and then got out of the vehicle and began stabbing people
with a butcher knife.
Progressives
Demand Gun Control After Knife Attack At Ohio State University. Progressives used a brutal knife attack at Ohio
State University (OSU) on Monday as an excuse to demand more gun control, even after authorities declared that they had no
evidence the attacker even used a gun during his rampage. The attacker reportedly struck pedestrians with his vehicle
and proceeded to stab several others, harming at least nine individuals, one of whom is in critical condition. Despite
OSU's initial tweets stating there was an active shooter on campus, authorities later said there was no evidence that the
attacker used a gun during his attack.
43,000
Somali refugees settled in US under Obama, 99 percent Muslim. The Obama administration resettled 8,858 Somali
refugees in the United States last year, and nearly 43,000 during Obama's eight years, a huge number that is now raising
concerns after a Somali refugee led a one-man attack spree on the campus of Ohio State.

Ohio
State University attacker was refugee. In a suspected act of Islamic terror, at least one attacker struck Ohio
State University in Columbus, Ohio early Monday morning, running over students with a car before exiting and attacking
victims with a large blade, reportedly a machete. In the brutal attack — shockingly similar to refugee knife
attacks carried out by ISIS-inspired Islamic terrorists throughout 2016 — the blade-wielding madman, reportedly an
18-year-old refugee that lived nearby, seriously wounded a number of students with a large knife before being killed by
responding police officers.

Police officers were shot by Kirk Figueroa after responding to a domestic disturbance call. Figueroa is now dead and
the two officers are recovering from bad injuries. And that's about all the mainstream media want everyone to
know. However, Boston's WCVB 5's investigation has uncovered a much different picture of Figueroa including his Islamic
faith. That fact is missing from nearly every major news site that this author searched. [...] [T]he shooter was a
Democrat and inspired by the words of the Obamas, who back the anti-police Black Lives Matter and constantly defend Islam as
a religion of peace.
Boston:
Muslim who had Islamic "rebirth" shoots two police officers. Cue the stories about how this has nothing to do
with Islam, and about how local mosques are now fearing an "Islamophobic backlash."

Jordanian
student pilot intentionally crashed his plane into a Connecticut street. A flying instructor desperately fought
for the controls of a plane moments before his student pilot 'deliberately crashed into a Connecticut street', sources
say. Trainee pilot Feras M. Freitekh and his instructor Arian Prevalla had been arguing during the flight on Tuesday
afternoon after the student said he no longer wanted to fly the plane, a source told the Hartford Courant. Prevella had
desperately tried to regain control of the Piper PA 34A — which has two sets of controls — when Freitekh suddenly began
flying erratically. But the experienced pilot was not able to stop their descent and the plane crashed on Tuesday.
Jordanian national Freitekh, 28, was killed in the crash while Prevalla was rushed to hospital with serious burns.
Palestinian
Muslim Takes A Plane And Crashes It Attempting To Destroy U.S. Major Military Defense Contractor In Connecticut. The
National Transportation Safety Board's initial investigation of a Tuesday's aircraft crash in East Hartford, Connecticut should be
a serious concern as it was a possible attempt to destroy one major US military defense contractor. As it seems, Muslims are
possibly attempting to carry out an attack by using airplanes again. [...] What is strange about this story is the ring of Muslim
student pilots and the testimony of the co-pilot stating that the suicide pilot did "an altercation in the cockpit during their
training flight, and the instructor was unable to regain control of the plane from the [Muslim] student pilot."
F.B.I.
Investigating if Fatal Plane Crash in East Hartford Was Intentional. The F.B.I. is investigating whether the
crash of a small plane in East Hartford, Conn., that killed a passenger on Tuesday [10/11/2016] was intentional, according to
four federal law enforcement officials. The pilot, who survived the crash, told investigators that it was not an
accident. [...] Officials identified the passenger as Feras M. Freitekh, 28. [...] Mayor Marcia Leclerc of East Hartford said
the plane took off from a flight school at the airport. The police chief of East Hartford, Scott M. Sansom, said during
a news conference that the police sought the help of the Federal Bureau of Investigation because the plane went down near a
Pratt & Whitney factory on Main Street, which he described as being "critical infrastructure." The company, which has its
headquarters in East Hartford, is a global manufacturer of jet engines for commercial, military and general aviation aircraft.

shoot 'Arabic ex-soldier' in the leg after he stabs two officers in Belgium's 'hotbed of jihad'. Two police
officers were stabbed as one of Belgium's busiest train stations was evacuated due to a bomb scare. The officers were
attacked by an unnamed individual in a busy main road in Schaerbeek, known as a 'hotbed of jihadism'. Police shot the
suspect in the leg and arrested him. The assailant has been named in Belgian newspaper De Standaard as 43-year-old
'Hicham D', a Belgian national who was formerly in the armed forces and known to the security services. He is
reported to have had contact with jihadi fighters who had returned from Syria.
Two
policemen injured in Brussels stabbing in suspected terror attack. A knife-wielding assailant stabbed two
policemen in a Brussels district known as a hotbed of jihadism in what prosecutors are treating as a suspected terrorist
attack. The violent assault, which ended in the suspect being shot in the leg, took place as one of the Belgian
capital's main train stations was briefly closed due to a bomb scare. The assailant, named by the Brussel prosecutor
only as Hicham D, a 43-year old Belgian national, lunged for the officers in a busy main road in Schaerbeek — the Brussels
neighbourhood where the terrorists behind the airport and metro attacks of March 22 had set up their bomb making factory.

Wash.
mall shooting suspect voted in 3 elections without U.S. citizenship. The man charged in Washington state's
deadly mall shooting on Sept. 23 voted in three elections despite not having U.S. citizenship. Arcan Cetin of Oak
Harbor is charged with five counts of first-degree premeditated murder in relation to last week's shooting that killed
five. The green card holder, who moved to the U.S. from Turkey when he was 7, may now face additional charges related
to voter fraud. State records show that Mr. Cetin registered to vote when he turned 18 and then voted in three
elections, including the 2016 presidential primary. Federal sources confirmed to a local NBC affiliate on Wednesday
[9/28/2016] that he is not a U.S. citizen and is legally prohibited from voting.
Mall
shooter not a U.S. citizen — voted in 3 elections. Add voter fraud to the list of Arcan Cetin's
offenses. Cetin, 20, is the Turkish immigrant arrested Saturday for the Friday night [9/23/2016] shooting and killing
of five people in a Burlington, Washington, mall. Security camera's show Cetin entering the mall briefly without a
weapon, leaving and then returning with a rifle. Cetin fled but was apprehended 24 hours later. He has
reportedly confessed to the five murders.
Investigators
may probe Cascade Mall suspect's citizenship status, voting record. The Cascade Mall shooting suspect, Arcan
Cetin, may face an additional investigation related to his voting record and citizenship status. Federal sources
confirm to KING 5 that Cetin was not a U.S. citizen, meaning legally he cannot vote. However, state records show Cetin
registered to vote in 2014 and participated in three election cycles, including the May presidential primary. Cetin, who
immigrated to the United States from Turkey as a child, is considered a permanent resident or green card holder. While a
permanent resident can apply for U.S. citizenship after a certain period of time, sources tell KING his status had not changed
from green card holder to U.S. citizen.
Cascade
Mall Shooter Arcan Cetin Mentioned Ayatollah, Islamic State on Blog. A neighbor told the Associated Press that
Cascade Mall shooter Arcan Cetin was so "creepy, rude, and obnoxious" that she kept a Taser near her front door, just in case
he came calling. The neighbor, 21-year-old Amber Cathey, said she blocked Cetin on Snapchat after he sent her a photo
of his crotch. She found him so frightening that she would walk a longer route to her nearby apartment to avoid him, if
she saw his car in the parking lot.
Turkish
Muslim Arrested For Washington State Mall Shooting. A 20-year-old Turkish Muslim named Arcan Cetin has been
arrested in Oak Harbor Washington for the murder of five people in the Burlington Mall Shooting.
Man
suspected of killing 5 people at Burlington mall arrested in Oak Harbor. A man suspected of killing five people
at Burlington's Cascade Mall on Friday night [9/23/2016] has been arrested in Oak Harbor after a 20-hour manhunt. The
Washington State Patrol identified the suspect as 20-year-old Arcan Cetin. Cetin emigrated from Turkey and is a legal
U.S resident, according to an initial police investigation. Cetin graduated in 2015 from Oak Harbor High School.
Washington
mall shooting suspect 'zombie-like' when arrested, police say. The 20-year-old man suspected of killing five
people with a rifle at a Macy's makeup counter had had a string of run-ins with the law in recent years, including charges he
assaulted his stepfather, and was described by a neighbor as so "creepy, rude and obnoxious" that she kept a Taser by her
front door. As investigators tried to piece together information on Arcan Cetin, who was arrested Saturday evening
after a nearly 24-hour manhunt, a picture emerged of a troubled young man. Court records show more than a half-dozen
criminal cases in Island County alone since 2013.
Surveillance
pictures appear to show 'Hispanic' gunman enter mall without a weapon. Authorities are looking for the active
shooter who reportedly shouted a woman's name repeatedly before he opened fire and killed five people during a deadly
shooting at a mall north of Seattle on Friday evening [9/23/2016]. Four women and one man are confirmed dead after the
shooting at the Cascade Mall in Burlington, about 65 miles north of Seattle, the Washington State Patrol said.
Victims have not been identified, however police said their ages ranged from teenager to elderly.
5th
victim dies in Cascade Mall shooting in Burlington; suspect remains at large. Five people are confirmed dead following a shooting at
the Macy's store in the Cascade Mall in Burlington Friday night, the Washington State Patrol said. The shooter remains at large.
Washington State Patrol Sgt. Mark Francis said that a single man with a hunting rifle walked into the mall in Burlington, about 65 miles north
of Seattle, and opened fire around 7 p.m, then left the scene before police arrived. He was last seen walking toward nearby Interstate 5.
Investigators
said they killed for ISIS. But were they different from 'regular' mass killers? Dahir Adan, a former Apollo
High School honor student, walked into a mall here last Saturday and stabbed 10 people before an off-duty police officer shot
him dead. The Islamic State hailed him as one of its soldiers. The FBI has hesitated to describe Adan's rampage
as an ideologically inspired terrorist attack and Thursday night called on witnesses — ideally with
videos — to come forward. For years, FBI officials and other national security experts have said that
apparent lone wolves such as Adan and Ahmad Khan Rahami, charged in last weekend's New York bombing, have no discernible
profile that could be used to head off terrorist acts. But some counterterrorism experts who studied attackers
motivated by jihadist ideology say they often exhibit traits similar to those of non-Muslim mass killers who have attacked
schools, churches and workplaces.
Mall shooting suspect
was 'zombie-like' when arrested, officials say. A suspected gunman believed to have killed five people at a Washington state mall was
arrested Saturday [9/24/2016], according to authorities. At a news conference, officials said they had not ruled out any possible motives for
why 20-year-old Arcan Cetin allegedly shot four women and one man at the Cascade Mall in Burlington Friday evening. [...] Mount Vernon Police Lt. Chris
Cammock said Cetin had immigrated to the U.S. from Turkey and was a "legal permanent resident." It was not immediately clear when Cetin came to
the U.S.
Hunt
on for gunman who killed 5, including 4 women, at Washington mall. Police were searching for a gunman who
killed four women and a man at a Washington state mall Friday [9/23/2016] before fleeing the area. Washington State
Patrol spokesman Sgt. Mark Francis said police were searching for a Hispanic man wearing black and armed with a rifle
who was last seen walking toward Interstate 5 near the Cascade Mall in Burlington.
St. Cloud, Minnesota
September 17, 2016
FBI:
Minnesota Mall Attacks "Consistent With the Philosophies of Violent Radical Islamic Groups". The information
discovered by the FBI in its investigation of the background of an attack on a mall in Minnesota suggests jihad. FBI
Special Agent Rick Thornton told reporters that the attacker, one Dahir Ahmed Adan, showed every sign of being an ordinary
college boy until recently. After he started reading the Quran in the several months predating the attack, he
progressively became less interested in playing video games, or physical sports, and "went from being an excellent student
with a GPA to flunking out of college almost overnight." By itself that suggests a strong influence, but the FBI agent was
not finished. "We have numerous credible witness accounts of him asking victims during the attack if they were Muslim,"
Agent Thornton reminded the reporters, "and at least one instance of him yelling 'Allahu Akbar' while stabbing one of his
victims, and others heard him yelling 'Islam, Islam.'" Citing "compelling evidence" that the attack was provoked, Thornton
added dryly, "one could reasonably conclude his actions were consistent with the philosophies of violent radical Islamic groups."

Graphic
new videos shed light on Minnesota stabbing attack by a man the FBI believes had been 'radicalized'. He chased
one store clerk into an electronics store, swiping at his head with a pair of steak knives, and then plunging one into his
back before the man was able to scramble to his feet and run. He came within inches of stabbing another store clerk,
who pulled a metal shutter closed just in time. He lunged repeatedly at an off-duty police officer who had chased him,
near the end, into a Macy's store. And then, even after he was shot, he got to his feet and lunged a second time.
The FBI and Minnesota law enforcement officials for the first time on Thursday released surveillance video footage that show
the mall attack by Dahir Adan, a 20-year-old from St. Cloud, Minn., on Sept. 18.
Hero
who Stopped Mass Stabbing in St. Cloud, MN, is Firearms Instructor, Concealed Carry Advocate. Jason
Falconer is the armed citizen who stopped the mass stabbing in the Crossroads Center Mall in St. Cloud, Minnesota, on Saturday
evening, September 18th, 2016. Falconer is competitive shooter, firearms instructor and CEO of Tactical Advantage.
Crossroads
Mall is a Gun Free, Weapons Free Zone. The mass stabbings that occurred at the Crossroads Center (Crossroads
Mall) in St. Cloud occurred in a gun free, weapon free zone. It appears that the armed citizen who stopped the
attack was not allowed to legally be armed in the mall. The armed citizen was an off duty officer from another jurisdiction.
Knife-wielding
attacker (who injured 9) in St. Cloud mall was a Somali. It is simply pathetic that a couple of hours ago
all of the officials arrayed in a lengthy St. Cloud press conference — the mayor (who has been a vocal
advocate for the expanding Somali enclave there), the police, even the FBI couldn't bring themselves to identify the dead
perpetrator, but waited (did they wait on purpose?) to give the 'Somali community' time to spin the story. He was a
good boy, no violent past, a good student, a college student in St. Cloud. (Maybe even a security guard!) So
what! He was first and foremost a Jihadist. And, Obama and his Lefty friends who chalk up 'violent extremism' to
poverty and lack of opportunity can just shut up! This guy had prospects for a good future and he chose jihad for Allah instead.
Police
baffled over motive of mall attacker yelling 'Allah', asking victims if they're Muslim. OK, I get it.
Police don't want to jump to conclusions in high profile cases. But can police authorities please stop insulting the
public when a Muslim starts attacking random strangers while yelling about Allah? The latest example of studied
ignorance comes from St. Cloud, Minnesota, the thriving metropolis of Central Minnesota.
Minnesota
stabbing survivor: 'He looked me dead in the eyes'. Ryan Schliep and his girlfriend had just gone inside a
Minnesota shopping mall when he saw a girl screaming and crying. "Call 911!" the girl said, according to Schliep.
Moments later, as he was standing by one of the mall's entrances, a man in uniform walked toward him. "He looked me
dead in the eyes," Schliep told The Washington Post. "He had a pretty emotionless face, just a blank stare."
Terror
suspect was arrested for stabbing but a grand jury let him walk despite cop's warning he was 'a danger'. The
28-year-old man suspected of planting bombs in Manhattan and New Jersey over the weekend was previously arrested for stabbing
a person in the leg and possession of a firearm in 2014, DailMail.com [sic] has learned. But a grand jury let him walk,
despite a warning from the arresting officer that Rahami was likely 'a danger to himself or others.' Ahmad Khan Rahami,
who was arrested on Monday in Linden, N.J., after a manhunt ended in a shootout with police, was also a deadbeat dad who
didn't like America and hated gays, according to the mother of his young daughter.
It's
Time We Faced the Facts about the Muslim World. Despite making up a tiny fraction of the American population,
Muslims are responsible for exponentially more terror deaths than any other meaningful American community. Even if you
use the Left's utterly ridiculous standard of "terror deaths since 9/11" (why exclude America's worst terror attack when
calculating the terror threat?), Muslim terrorists have killed almost twice as many people as every other American faction or
demographic combined. Yet when any politician or pundit suggests restrictions or even special scrutiny applied to
Muslim immigrants — especially Muslim immigrants or visitors from jihadist conflict zones — entire
sectors of the Left (and some on the right) recoil in shock and horror. Whenever there's a terror attack, there's an
almost palpable desperation to determine that the attacker was not Muslim and the attack had "no connection" to international
terror, in spite of the fact that it is now ISIS and al-Qaeda strategy to inspire lone wolves.
The
Somali 'ISIS fanatic' who went on Minnesota knife rampage after checking whether victims were Muslims. A "lone
wolf" jihadi who slashed shoppers during an alleged IS-inspired knife attack at a US mall was named last night as a Call Of
Duty-obsessed university student. Basketball fanatic Dahir Adan, 22, was unmasked by his family as the attacker who
died during his mass stabbing spree at the Crossroads Mall in St Cloud, Minnesota.
Minnesota
mall attacker referenced Allah before stabbing rampage, police chief says. ISIS claimed responsibility after a
knife-wielding man injured eight people at a mall in central Minnesota Saturday evening, a bloody rampage during which he
reportedly asked at least one victim whether they were Muslim and referenced Allah. St. Cloud Police Chief
William Blair Anderson said the suspect, whom he did not identify, was shot and killed by an off-duty police officer from
another jurisdiction. Five of the eight victims had been treated and released from a local hospital and all were
expected to survive their injuries. ISIS-related media on Sunday morning claimed responsibility for the attack, issuing
a statement via a source.
Dayton
Calls For Tolerance After St. Cloud Mall Attack. Gov. Mark Dayton said he plans to travel to
St. Cloud Monday to offer support for the community following the knife attack at a mall that left nine people wounded
and a suspect dead. Authorities say the suspect, who has yet to be identified, attacked several shoppers at the
Crossroads Center mall on Saturday night. Police say he mentioned Allah and asked at least one victim if they were
Muslim. "If true that [the stabbings] were motivated by religious bigotry, I condemn them even more strongly," the
governor said in a press release Sunday [9/18/2016].
The Editor says...
There is a big difference, Governor, between bigotry and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Hero
cop saved mall patrons during stabbing rampage. A hero cop saved bystanders at a Minnesota mall when a
knife-wielding terrorist descended on the shoppers Saturday evening, slashing eight of them before he was killed by the
off-duty officer. St. Cloud Mayor Dave Kleis described surveillance footage of the attack, which has not yet been
released, lauding the officer's response and calling the video akin to a "training video for law enforcement."

CAIR:
Minnesota Jihad Stabbing Puts Muslims at Risk. At a press conference addressing a jihadist attack in Minnesota,
the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) warned Muslims are now potential victims at risk of being harmed in
retaliation. CAIR has been declared a terrorist organization by the United Arab Emirates and was named by federal
prosecutors as an unindicted co-conspirator in a Hamas-funding operation. The St. Cloud, Minnesota, mass stabbing
occurred at the city's Crossroads Center mall on Saturday night. A Somali man allegedly shouted, "Allah," as he stabbed
nine people before he was shot dead by an off-duty officer. All nine victims stabbed at the Crossroads Center mall in
St. Cloud survived.
Somali
community in Minn. fears backlash after stabbing suspect ID'd. Authorities are investigating the stabbings of
nine people at a Minnesota mall as a potential act of terrorism, a finding that would realize long-held fears of an attack in
the immigrant-rich state that has struggled to stop the recruiting of its young men by groups including the Islamic
State. A young Somali man dressed as a private security guard entered the Crossroads Center mall in St. Cloud
over the weekend wielding what appeared to be a kitchen knife. The city's police chief said the man reportedly made at
least one reference to Allah and asked a victim if he or she was Muslim before attacking.

Reports:
Several hurt in Crossroads Center incident. The FBI is investigating the Crossroads Center knife attacks on
Saturday as "a potential act of terrorism." Nine people were injured by an attacker who was killed inside the Macy's store
by an off-duty Avon police officer. St. Cloud Mayor Dave Kleis identified that officer as Jason Falconer during a
press conference Sunday. A short time earlier, St. Cloud Somali-American community members identified the
deceased suspect as Dahir Adan.
Reports: Multiple people injured at Crossroads
Mall in St. Cloud. In a press conference, St. Cloud Police Chief William Anderson said the suspect
was wearing a private security uniform and carrying a knife. Police believe the suspect acted alone and could not say
whether the incident was a terrorist attack or not. Based on witness accounts, the suspect made reference to Allah and
asked at least one of the victims if they were Muslim before he assaulted them.
Police
Chief Doesn't Know Why Allah-Referencing Terrorist Knifed 8 People in St. Cloud. There were three
separate terror attacks yesterday — in St. Cloud, Minnesota, New York City and Seaside Park, New
Jersey. The officials all echoed the same lines: there is no imminent threat, we don't have a motive, we don't know if
it's a terror attack, and there is no evidence anyone else was involved or that the attacks were connected. Also, we
can't call the device a bomb. The DEVICES in New York were pressure cookers. The one that didn't explode had
wires coming out of it and was hooked to a cellphone. The one that exploded let off loud booming sounds and clouds of
smoke like nothing the witnesses had ever heard or seen before. If devices explode like this, I'd better get rid of my
coffee maker. CBS is calling the Minnesota terror attack, a "mall incident." CNN referred to it as a "mall attack."
Mayor de Blasio aka Mayor Wilhelm went a step further and said it's not a terrorist attack.
Mass Stabbing at
Popular American Mall. A vicious stabbing attack has left one dead and eight injured. The sick attack
happened at the Crossroads Mall in St. Cloud, Minnesota. The suspect is deceased and authorities are not sure of
the motive.
Minnesota mall attack: Man
shot dead after stabbing 8 people. The man who stabbed nine people at a Minnesota mall Saturday before being
shot dead by an off-duty police officer was a "soldier of the Islamic state," according to an ISIS-linked news agency.
The statement posted online Sunday by the Amaq agency follows a pattern of ISIS-related media claiming responsibility for
what appear to be the acts of individuals across Europe in the past few months. CNN cannot independently confirm this
latest claim.
ISIS
claims responsibility for mass stabbing at Minnesota mall carried out by a knifeman who talked about Allah. A
'soldier of the Islamic State' went on a stabbing rampage at a Minnesota shopping mall before he was shot dead by an off-duty
police officer, the terror group claims. Isis claimed responsibility for the attack at the Crossroads Center mall in
St. Cloud on Saturday night in a statement released today [9/18/2016] through their propaganda channel. The assailant,
who reportedly made references to Allah and asked at least one person whether they were Muslim, injured nine people, St Cloud
Police Chief Blair Anderson said.
Islamic

references to Allah and asked at least one person if they were Muslim before he assaulted them at the Crossroads Center mall
in St. Cloud on Saturday, the city's Police Chief William Blair Anderson told reporters. "Whether that was a
terrorist attack or not, I'm not willing to say that right now because we just don't know," Anderson said at a news conference.

New York City / Elizabeth, New Jersey / Lindon, New Jersey
September 17, 2016
Multiple simultaneous incidents — strictly coincidental, of course!
Convicted
N.J. terrorist gets another life term for trying to kill cops in gunfight after bombings. Convicted terrorist
Ahmad Khan Rahimi was sentenced to life in prison Friday after a Union County jury for attempting to kill five Linden police
officers in a shootout after they identified him as the man wanted in bombings throughout New York and New Jersey.
Rahimi, a naturalized U.S. citizen born in Afghanistan, is already serving multiple life terms for setting off a pressure
cooker in Manhattan in September 2016 that injured dozens. He still faces federal charges for planting bombs around the
same time in Elizabeth and a 5K race in Seaside Park.
Alleged
Chelsea Bomber Ahmad Rahimi Indicted on Federal Terror Charges. Federal prosecutors boosted their case
Wednesday against a man charged with setting off bombs in New Jersey and New York that injured 30 people, bringing additional
charges in an indictment and subjecting him to a potential mandatory life-in-prison penalty if he's convicted. The eight-count
indictment in Manhattan federal court speeds the case along against 28-year-old Ahmad Khan Rahimi. He has been held without
bail in the Sept. 17 attacks since his arrest two days afterward when he was shot by police in a shootout outside a Linden,
New Jersey, bar.
2
Men Who Found Bomb in Chelsea Are Identified as Airline Security Guards. Two men who found a travel bag
containing a bomb on a Manhattan street last month — and then walked off with the bag but left the
bomb — were not just employees of EgyptAir but in-flight security officers for the carrier, two officials at the
airline said on Friday [9/30/2016]. Surveillance footage showed two men finding the bag on West 27th Street on the evening
of Sept. 17, soon after a bomb exploded on West 23rd Street, injuring 31 people and triggering terrorism fears across the
region. In the video, the men were seen pulling from the travel bag a white plastic bag that contained a pressure cooker
connected to wires and a mobile phone. They left the white bag on the sidewalk and walked away with the travel bag.
The bomb did not explode, and investigators have said that the men may have inadvertently disabled the device.
Two
main suspects in NYC bombing were able to hightail it out of the country. Two men wanted by the FBI in connection with the
New York City bombing have reportedly left the country. The FBI put out a wanted poster for the two young men, who were caught on
camera walking off with the luggage that contained one of the planted bombs. Sometime later the duo boarded a plane and left the
country, according to multiple new reports.
After
Chelsea Bombing, NYC Launches Efforts To Silence 'Negative Rhetoric' About Islam. Less than two weeks after the
terrorist bombings in New Jersey and New York City's Chelsea neighborhood, NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio's administration is
launching a new campaign against the "negative rhetoric targeting Muslim communities" that the city says gets worse after
"terrorist incidents." A press release from the city on Monday [9/26/2016] explained the reasoning for the new anti-anti-Islam
efforts: "Across the country, hateful speech has made Muslim residents the target of misguided attacks and threats,
especially in the aftermath of terrorist incidents," states a press release from the city.
Two
men seen removing undetonated bomb from wheeled duffel bag left on Manhattan street 'by chicken shop terrorist' identified by
FBI. Two men seen removing an unexploded bomb from a wheeled duffel bag left on the street by the Chelsea
bomber have been identified by the FBI. Officials say the pair are both Egyptian pilots who have since left the U.S.,
presumably to return to Egypt, ABC News reports. Their names have not yet been made public. The men had been seen
on surveillance video removing the bomb from luggage on West 27th Street, Manhattan, at around 8 pm on the night
of the Chlsea bombing attack on September 17.
Comey
vows to review past warnings to FBI about alleged NY bomber. FBI Director James Comey told lawmakers Tuesday [9/27/2016]
his agency will learn from any missteps it might have made leading up to last week's Manhattan bombing, amid reports that the alleged
bomber had been known to agents for at least two years. Comey, who was testifying before the Senate Homeland Security Committee
hearing, also said that when the FBI makes a mistake, the agency is open about it. In two recent cases, he noted the FBI is
looking over its past investigation of the Orlando nightclub shooter — and the bureau's prior interactions with the father
of Ahmad Rahami, who was charged last week in the Manhattan explosion that left dozens injured.
Once
Again, The Obama Administration Missed Terrorist Red Flags. After the recent spate of terror attacks in the
U.S., President Obama defended himself by saying that these type of attacks are "very hard to detect and very hard to
prevent." But it turns out that officials had the New York City bomber in their sights — twice — and
failed to do anything about it, making this the ninth terror attack on Obama's watch that arguably could have been prevented.
The
feds keep letting 'known wolves' drop off the radar. The FBI had the future Chelsea bomber on its
radar — for a while, anyway — but let him slip through. Just as officials had done with men who
became the perps in at least eight other terror attacks. Customs officials screened Ahmad Rahami in 2011 on his return
from a trip to Pakistan, and again after a 2013-2014 trip there. They notified Homeland Security Department's National
Targeting Center — which sent the report on to the FBI and other agencies. Then, in August 2014, Rahami's
dad told the authorities his son was a terrorist. Agents checked records and found nothing. When his father
recanted, they say, they closed the book. Yet they never bothered to interview Ahmad Rahami himself.
FBI
Training Questioned in Recent Terror Attacks. Recent domestic terror attacks by Islamic extremists are raising
questions among officials and security experts about whether FBI counterterrorism training is deficient. The chief
suspect in the New York City homemade bombing attacks last weekend, Ahmad Rahami, was probed for several weeks by the FBI in
2014 after his father alerted authorities to his terrorist leanings. Rahami's father, Mohammad Rahami, told reporters
this week that he informed the FBI about concerns about his son after Rahami stabbed one of his brothers in a domestic
dispute. "Two years ago I go to the FBI because my son was doing really bad, OK?" the elder Rahami said. "But
they check almost two months, they say, 'He's okay, he's clean, he's not a terrorist.' I say OK." "Now they
say he is a terrorist. I say OK," Mohammad Rahami said.
FBI seeking information on 2 'unknown individuals'
in NY bombing case. Earlier today, the FBI released the notice above seeking information on "two unknown
individuals" who were seen "on West 27th Street between 6th and 7th Avenues in Manhattan between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m., on
Saturday, September 17, 2016, in the same hour that an explosive device had detonated on West 23rd Street." The FBI's
statement continues: "Closed circuit television recordings indicate that these individuals allegedly located a piece of
luggage on the sidewalk, removed an improvised explosive device from the luggage, and then left the vicinity leaving the device
behind but taking the luggage." At this point in time, the FBI is not publicly alleging that these two individuals
did anything other than what is stated above.
Blood-covered
journal of New York bombing suspect references al-Qaeda and Islamic State. The man accused of a bombing spree in New York and
New Jersey was flagged by Customs and Border Protection officials for questioning at least twice over the last few years after returning from
Pakistan, but in both cases they found no reason to deny him entry to the United States, law enforcement officials said. Ahmad Khan
Rahami, who remains heavily sedated in a New Jersey hospital after a police shootout that resulted in his arrest on Monday [9/19/2016], was
one of thousands of such individuals traveling from high-risk countries who are flagged each year for "secondary" questioning at the
airport. He was in Pakistan in 2013 and in 2014, including stays in Quetta, a stronghold of militant groups, law enforcement officials
said. And in both cases, upon his return, "nothing derogatory" arose out of the screenings, and the information was relayed to the FBI,
said one senior law enforcement official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation is ongoing.
NY
Muslim Bomber's Notebook Urged Killing Non-Muslims. Killing the kuffar isn't a "perversion of Islam". It is
Islam. Islam settles religious disputes, internally or externally, with murderous violence.
Accused New York bomber's
wife back; lawyer seeks access to suspect. Ahmad Khan Rahami, 28, has been held in a Newark, New Jersey,
hospital since being arrested on Monday with wounds after a shootout with police. Rahami faces federal charges in both
states stemming from a Saturday night bombing in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood that injured 31 people and explosives
found in two New Jersey locations. No one was killed in the blasts.
Federal
complaint against bombing suspect omits journal's ISIS references. Pages from the bloody journal of the New York and New Jersey bombing
suspect Ahmad Khan Rahami show he was a follower of Al Qaeda as well as the Islamic State terror group, yet federal investigators made no reference to
ISIS in their complaint charging him on Tuesday [9/20/2016]. At least two pages include references to Anwar al-Awlaki — the
American-born Muslim cleric who was killed in a 2011 drone strike and whose preaching has inspired acts of terror linked to ISIS and Al Qaeda.
Federal investigators mentioned Awlaki in the complaints. However, the journal also appears to reference Abu Muhammad al Adnani — the
ISIS spokesman killed by coalition forces in August after he called his followers to attack non-believers in their homelands.
Is
the Justice Department Hiding ISIS Connection in NY-NJ Bombings? Images released of the journal of Ahmad Khan
Rahami, the suspected NY-NJ bomber, show mention of a recently killed ISIS leader, but that reference is curiously missing
from the federal indictment filed against him yesterday [9/20/2016]. Is the Justice Department again trying to hide an
obvious ISIS connection or inspiration from this past weekend's attacks, just as they did when they censored Orlando mass
killer Omar Mateen's pledge to ISIS?
It's time
to send Muslim terrorists a message: Deport the Rahami Family. The Rahami family came to America from
Afghanistan as refugees. They made life miserable for their neighbors. When the police tried to bring some order,
they cried Islamophobia. Two of the Rahamis have posted in support of the Muslim Brotherhood, Al Qaeda and other
Islamic terror groups on social media. The third actually built and planted bombs to kill Americans. He
terrorized two states, tried to kill and maim countless Americans and then shot it out with police. Ahmad Khan Rahami,
the central figure in the terror case, brought his wife here from Pakistan and she departed days before his attack. His
mother left for Pakistan a few weeks before his bombing spree. The media, eager for a story of redemption, has widely
broadcast the claim that Mohammed Rahami, Ahmad's father, told the FBI that he was a terrorist. But that was years
ago. And Mohammed didn't turn in his son because there was a terror plot, but because he attacked family members.
Immigrants
are a 'vicious cancer from within': Trump goes on offensive as Afghan-born is named in New York bomb hunt.
Republican Donald Trump is warning of a spike in terror attacks after a bomb placed under a dumpster in Chelsea exploded over
the weekend, and is placing blame for the attack squarely on immigrants he called a 'vicious' threat. 'They're
here. We're letting tens of thousands of people flow into this country,' Trump said Monday morning. 'They're
bringing in many cases vicious cancer from within. This is something that's going to be so tough. And you know
they stay together so nobody really knows who it is, what's happening. They're plotting. This has been going on
for so long everybody knows it,' Trump said.
Father Of New York Bombing Suspect Just
Dropped A Bombshell That's Shaking The FBI. On Tuesday [9/20/2016], The Father of New York bombing suspect,
Ahmad Khan Rahami, claimed he TWICE reported his son was a terrorist to the FBI. New York Times reported: Two years
before Ahmad Khan Rahami went on a bombing rampage in New York and New Jersey, his father told the police that the son was a
terrorist, prompting a review by federal agents, according to two senior law enforcement officials. The father made the
statement about his son being a terrorist to New Jersey police in 2014, when Mr. Rahami was arrested after a domestic
dispute and accused of stabbing his brother.
Jersey
Jihadi Rahami's Wife Fled to Pakistan Before Bombings. The wife of Ahmed Khan Rahami, the prime suspect in a
string of bombings spanning from Manhattan to the Jersey shore this weekend, fled to Pakistan days before Rahami allegedly
planted bombs throughout the tri-state area, according to multiple reports. The Daily Mail notes that the Los
Angeles Times has reported that the wife, whose name has not been released, has left the country.
Cops nab NY bomber as
more suspects keep coming to US. This would not be a good day to slander the flag as an act against the
police. It was the police who came to the rescue after a series of bombings that shook New York City and New Jersey
over the weekend. This would be a good day to honor all members of Law Enforcement. Within 24 hours they caught
and arrested suspect Ahmad Khan Rahami. Even BLM (Black Lives Matter) and other cop-hating associates may want to give
it a rest. But that is unlikely, as illustrated at Monday Night Football where the Chicago Bears hosted the Philadelphia
Eagles, and three members of the Eagles raised their fists at the playing of the national anthem. They were making a statement.
'The
sounds of the bombs will be heard in the streets': A scrawled journal found with New York bombing suspect.
Years before he was accused of becoming a terrorist, when he was just another young man getting by in New Jersey, Ahmad Khan
Rahami led an undistinguished American life. He worked at his dad's fried chicken restaurant and went to a local
college and sometimes struggled with the bills. Then something changed. Rahami's faith in Islam seemed to grow
more serious in recent years, coinciding with lengthy trips back to Afghanistan, which his family fled in the 1990s,
acquaintances said. Rahami, a naturalized American citizen, grew a beard, married a woman from Pakistan, and watched
jihadist martyr's anthems on YouTube, investigators say.
Suspect wrote 'bombs
will be heard in the streets,' authorities say. The suspect in Saturday's bombings in New York and New Jersey
declared that "the sounds of bombs will be heard in the streets" and praised "Brother Osama Bin Laden" in a journal found on
him when he was arrested, authorities said. Ahmad Rahami was charged Tuesday with four counts in federal court in
connection with an explosion in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood and an unexploded pressure cooker found nearby.
New
York bombing suspect Ahmad Khan Rahami said he received instructions from 'terrorist leaders... to attack nonbelievers'. The
New York bombing suspect said that he had received instructions from "terrorist leaders... to attack non-believers where they live", as he
was charged on Tuesday night with the use of weapons of mass destruction. Ahmad Khan Rahami's journal revealed that he accused the US
of slaughtering Islamist fighters in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and the Palestinian territories.
Days
after attacks, Obama pitches more refugees. President Obama on Tuesday will lead a special summit on the need
to take in Syrian refugees, just days after weekend terrorist attacks that are raising more questions about whether the U.S.
should be cracking down on immigration instead of opening the doors further. Plans for Obama to lead the summit were
months in the making, long before Ahmad Khan Rahami allegedly planted a pressure cooker bomb in New York that detonated,
injuring 29 people. Rahami, a naturalized U.S. citizen born in Afghanistan, is also thought to be responsible for bombs
discovered in New Jersey.
The
New Terror: Even When It Fails, It Works. A 28-year-old man originally from Afghanistan, Ahmad Khan
Rahami, has been arrested in Linden, New Jersey, in connection with the bombing in New York City on Saturday night that
wounded 29 people. There reportedly was a brief shootout in which two police were wounded and Rahami was injured in
the shoulder. Video from the scene shows the wounded suspect as he was being loaded into an ambulance, a stocky figure with
a heavier beard than appears in the "wanted" poster photograph distributed by the FBI.
Ahmad Khan
Rahami's Father Told Police in 2014 His Son Was a Terrorist, Officials Say. Two years before the bombings that
Ahmad Khan Rahami is suspected of carrying out in New York and New Jersey, his father told the police that he suspected his
son might be involved in terrorism, prompting a review by federal agents, according to two law enforcement officials.
The father, Mohammad Rahami, in a brief interview on Tuesday [9/20/2016], said that at the time he told agents from the Federal
Bureau of Investigation about his concern, his son had just had a fight with another of his sons and stabbed the man, leading
to a criminal investigation.
Revealed:
Chicken shop terrorist's Father called the FBI about his son two years ago after 'he stabbed his brother and hit his
stepmom'. The father of chicken shop terrorist Ahmad Khan Rahami warned authorities about his violent son two
years ago — but they still didn't put him on a terror watch list. Mohammad Rahami Sr appeared outside his apartment in
Elizabeth, New Jersey on Tuesday and spoke to reporters in broken English, saying he called the FBI out of fears his son
might be radicalizing after violent outbursts including incidents when he stabbed his own brother Nasim and hit his stepmother.
The claims raise concerns that law enforcement could be responsible for letting Rahami slip under the radar.
FBI detains
5 in connection to Chelsea bombing. FBI agents arrested five men who may be connected to Saturday's bombing in
Chelsea after stopping their car in Brooklyn, sources said. The men were heading over the Verrazano Bridge from Staten
Island when they were stopped Sunday night. Sources said the FBI suspected the men may have had a role in the bombing
and were questioning them at the FBI headquarters in Manhattan.
Mayor
de Blasio Avoids Terrorism Label in Manhattan Explosion. It was on the minds of New Yorkers, who immediately
drew comparisons to Sept. 11, 2001. It could be felt in the police response, which included teams of heavily armed officers
stationed at key targets and the Joint Terrorism Task Force of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Police Department.
But for Mayor Bill de Blasio and top city officials, terrorism was the word that could not be spoken on Sunday. Seeking to
project a responsible and measured reaction, the mayor pointedly avoided calling the bombing in the Chelsea neighborhood of
Manhattan on Saturday that injured 29 people — and the presence of a seemingly related but undetonated device
a few blocks away — a possible act of terror, declining at several points on Sunday to do so. He
emphasized that there would be no "easy answers" and that no suspect had yet been apprehended.
Five
Men In Arab Garb Detained in New York En Route to Airport. According to New York Senator Marty Golden, media
and eye witnesses, five men dressed in Arab garb have been stopped, and detained, by the FBI.
Source:
NY and NJ Bomb signatures "nearly identical". According to a federal law enforcement source close to the
investigation of the bombing in Manhattan, it was disclosed that the "signatures" of the bombs, both detonated and
undetonated, possess enough similarities to suspect they were constructed by the same maker. In addition to "having the
ability to be remotely detonated," the same components were used. Specific information about the bombs was not being
disclosed to avoid compromising the integrity of the investigation, although this source stated that the investigating
agencies have a "suspect pool" based on the construction of the explosive devices. That does not mean that the bomber
might be easily solved, or the bomber readily identified, cautioned this source.
The
Response to This Weekend's Terror Attacks Showed Willful Blindness in Real Time. In the all too familiar
pattern, things are going boom, Americans are under attack, and the American political class is already busy playing the "See
No Jihad" minuet. In a rational world, where our highest imperative would be to understand the threat that confronts us
rather than to find the least offensive way of describing it, it would be patently, undeniably obvious that we are targets of
international terrorism fueled by Islamic supremacist ideology. Nevertheless, the political class can only bring itself
to say this kicking and screaming, and only if there is no other plausible alternative — which basically means a
terrorist caught in the act while wearing an ISIS T-shirt.
Pal:
Terror suspect underwent 'shocking' change after Afghanistan trip. A man who described himself as a childhood
friend of the 28-year-old busted today in connection with this weekend's New York-area bombings told the [Boston] Herald the
suspect made a life-changing trip to Afghanistan two years ago. "At one point he left to go to Afghanistan, and two
years ago he came back, popped up out of nowhere and he was real religious," friend Flee Jones, 27, said of suspect Ahmad
Khan Rahami. "And it was shocking. I'm trying to understand what's going on. I've never seen him like this."
The Editor says...
Ri-i-i-ight. You had no idea he was going to Afghanistan? You didn't wonder why he would go there? You
had no idea that Islam is bent on world domination, through the murder of one infidel at a time?
Obama:
No Connection Between Stabbing, Bombings. A community activist says a man who went on a stabbing rampage at a
Minnesota mall that injured 10 people had gone to the mall to pick up a pre-ordered iPhone. Haji Yusuf, community
director for the social tolerance group UniteCloud, has been working with the family of 20-year-old Dahir Adan. Adan's
father has identified him as the mall attacker who was eventually shot dead by an off-duty police officer. Yusuf told
WCCO-TV that Adan had gone to Crossroads Center to get a new phone and "was very happy" upon leaving home. He says
Adan's family doesn't know what happened.
Bombing
Suspect Ahmad Khan Rahami Captured In Linden. Eyewitness News captured exclusive video of the man believed to
be behind weekend bombings in Chelsea, Seaside Park and Elizabeth being taken into custody following a incident with police
in Linden, New Jersey. Monday night, officials in New Jersey had charged Rahami with five counts of attempted murder of
a law enforcement officer. He was also charged with second-degree unlawful possession of a weapon and second-degree
possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose. He is being ordered held on $5.2 million bail.
Police arrest bombing suspect.
Ahmed Khan Rahami, wanted on suspicion of involvement in the bombings on the east coast of the US over the past two days, has
been apprehended in Lindon, New Jersey, after a firefight, according to reports. Rahami is an immigrant from
Afghanistan who lived in New Jersey. A manhunt had been conducted for Rahami over the past day. Police suspect
that he is also behind the bombing in New York on Saturday night.

ISIS
Supporters Rush To Celebrate NYC Explosion. Supporters of the Islamic State rushed to celebrate Saturday
night's powerful explosion in New York's Chelsea neighborhood that injured at least 29 people, even as no group or individual
has been arrested or claimed responsibility. "The lions of the Caliphate roar in New York, we cause you pain inside
your house, the carrier of the Cross," wrote one Twitter user who went by the name "I am ISIS, come and block me." The
account was soon suspended. Another, called "The Lone Wolves," tweeted with the Arabic hashtag #ExplosionManhattanNewYork
"Oh God burn America, take revenge in the name of your oppressed slaves and believers' blood."
Heavy
duty metal dumpster destroyed by Manhattan bomb saved lives says the owner. The owner of the dumpster which was
crumpled from the force of a bomb which detonated inside it on a New York street on Saturday night told DailyMail.com that he
believes the sturdy nature of the steel container probably saved many lives. Some 29 people were injured in the blast
from an explosive device which happened at 8.30pm on West 23rd Street in the Chelsea neighborhood, outside a hotel, The
Townhouse Inn of Chelsea, and residential center for the blind, Visions at Selis Manor.
How
Police Found Second Bomb, and a 'Total Containment Vessel' Hauled It Away. After the explosion on West 23rd
Street on Saturday night, the police did what they typically do when they suspect a bomb has gone off. They spread out
and began looking for unexploded bombs — what those on the New York Police Department's bomb squad call
"secondaries." Officers began searching block by block, going as far south as 14th Street and as far north as 34th
Street. A few hours into the effort, two state troopers participating in the search found what appeared to be one, on
West 27th Street, about four blocks above the explosion. On the sidewalk on the north side of the street, there was a
pressure cooker with a cellphone attached to it, law enforcement officials said. A photograph of the device shared on
social media shows the cookware, with wires and the cellphone. The authorities confirmed that the photo was authentic.
Possible
'Live Bomb' Found Near New Jersey Train Station, Shutting Down Transit Service From NYC. New Jersey Transit
service has been shut down temporarily out of New York City tonight [9/18/2016]. The Mayor of Elizabeth, NJ has reportedly
confirmed that a trash can was found with explosive materials near the town's main train station this evening.
'Possible
live bomb' found at Elizabeth train station, mayor says. An improvised explosive device in a backpack detonated
near the Elizabeth train station early Monday as authorities were using a bomb robot to examine the item, officials
said. The blast occurred around 12:40 a.m. near Morris Avenue and Julian Place. The explosion was not a
controlled blast, but happened unintentionally as the robot was cutting the device, according to Mayor Christian
Bollwage. No one was injured in the blast, Bollwage said.

Possible Explosive Devices Recovered, 1 Detonated in Elizabeth, NJ. FBI agents surrounded a house in Elizabeth,
New Jersey early Monday after a backpack was discovered the previous night with five possible explosive devices in the same
town. Earlier Monday, just after midnight, an explosive device detonated during a police attempt to disarm it after a
bomb squad was called in, in the third New York City area incident involving what appear to be improvised bombs.
'Pressure
cooker used in New York explosion' has eerie echo to Boston Marathon bombings. The explosion that injured at least
29 people in Manhattan has brought to mind eerie reminders of the Boston Marathon terrorist attacks of 2013. Mayor Bill
de Blasio has said the blast that ripped the affluent Chelsea neighborhood on Saturday night was 'an intentional act' —
but has denied any links to terrorism. Yet explosives experts have pointed out similarities with the Boston Marathon bombings
of 2013 — specifically the type of device used, pressure cookers.

At
least 29 people injured after 'intentional' explosion in New York City, officials say. Dozens of people were
injured Saturday night in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan in an intentional bombing apparently caused by an improvised
explosive device, authorities said. Twenty-nine people suffered non-life-threatening injuries in the blast, which
occurred on the street, according to the New York Police Department. Authorities confirmed that all 29 victims
had been treated and released from hospitals Sunday morning.
Other than Muslims, who does stuff like this?
29 injured in
explosion on Chelsea street; second location at 27th Street investigated: 'This was an intentional act'. An
explosion during a bustling night in NYC's Chelsea neighborhood Saturday that resulted in 29 people being injured was
"obviously an act of terrorism" although no links to international groups has been discovered, Gov. Andrew Cuomo
said of investigator's findings the day after the attack.
Explosion
rips through Chelsea street: 'Everybody started running and screaming'. A thunderous explosion rocked a Chelsea
street Saturday night [9/17/2016] — injuring at least 29 people, blasting out windows and sending scores of
panicked pedestrians running for their lives, cops and witnesses said.
We had
a lot of "coincidental" attacks on September 17th. Let's just get it out of the way and say it: Saturday,
September 17th, 2016 was a bad day. While nobody in the media seems to want to jump in and "hastily" talk about
terrorism, there were a few too many coincidences yesterday to be ignored in terms of public acts of violence. The big
headline, of course, was the Saturday night bombing in the Chlesea neighborhood of New York City.
New
York mayor de Blasio under fire for saying there's 'no evidence of a terror connection' in Manhattan blast. New
York Mayor Bill de Blasio has been criticized by some for saying there is no link between Saturday night's explosions and
terrorism — despite admitting it was an intentional act. The mayor spoke at a news conference at around 11:30 p.m.
local time, just three hours after a blast on West 23rd Street left 29 people injured, one of them critically.
'Tonight New York City experienced a very serious incident,' de Blasio said. When pressed by reporters if the blast was the
result of terrorism, the mayor said it was premature to say.

No
injuries after pipe bomb explodes before Marine charity run in New Jersey. Authorities evacuated dozens of
homes for hours after a pipe bomb exploded in a Jersey Shore town Saturday morning [9/17/2016] where thousands of people were
about to participate in a charity 5K race to benefit Marines and sailors. Investigators said they would not rule out
terrorism as a possible cause. No injuries were reported in the blast in Seaside Park around 9:30 a.m., officials
said. The third annual "Semper Five" run was canceled. The pipe bomb was in a plastic garbage can when it exploded.
Explosion
in New York City believed to be 'intentional,' mayor says; 29 injured. An explosion that injured at least 29
people in New York City late Saturday [9/17/2016] appeared to be "an intentional act," Mayor Bill de Blasio said, as sources
told Fox News a second device — a pressure cooker — was found four blocks away. De Blasio
said the explosion had no known connection to terrorism and wasn't related to a pipe bomb explosion at a charity run in New
Jersey earlier Saturday.
The Editor says...
This is a new twist in the reflexive denial blurted out by public officials after every obvious terrorist attack: The "explosion
had no known connection to terrorism." The connections will be made later, of course. Even so, what would be the
purpose of setting off an explosion in a big city full of tourists on Saturday night, if it were not an act of terrorism?
Manhattan
Blast That Injured 29 Does Not Appear to Be International Terrorism. A bomb that injured 29 people on Saturday
in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan, and another that failed to detonate, were filled with shrapnel and made with pressure
cookers, flip phones and Christmas lights to set off a powerful explosive compound, law enforcement officials said on Sunday
[9/18/2016]. Both bombs appeared designed to create maximum chaos and fatalities. They also provided a trove of clues.

Muslim
who slashed NYPD cop faced deportation; wrote of martyrdom, wife approved. Just days before this weekend's
Islamic terror attacks in New York City, New Jersey and Minnesota, a Palestinian Muslim facing deportation attacked an NYPD
cop with a meat cleaver in broad daylight. Law enforcement and the media claimed he was just a crazy man. The
facts, once again, prove otherwise.
Three
Violent Attacks: Connect the Dots. In New York, a Palestinian named Akram Joudeh was picked up two months
ago while screaming "Allahu akbar" outside a Brooklyn synagogue. He was ordered deported, and was in Midtown on
Thursday appealing his deportation notice when he started attacking bystanders with a meat cleaver. An off-duty NYPD
officer confronted Joudeh and was slashed down the side of his face, requiring 70 stitches. Police shot Joudeh
when he refused to drop the meat cleaver.
New
York: Cleaver-Attacking Palestinian Muslim Was Slated for Deportation. On Thursday [9/15/2016], Palestinian Akram
Joudeh slashed an off-duty cop with cleaver after the foreigner was confronted for trying to remove a boot from his parked car.
The officer, NYPD Detective Brian O'Donnell, was slashed across his face by the cleaver which Joudeh had tucked in his waistband (!),
and the perp was shot by other police in the following confrontation. Fortunately Detective O'Donnell was released from the
hospital on Friday, so that's good news.
Man
shot and left in critical condition near Macy's 'for attacking New York cop with a meat cleaver'. The man who
allegedly hit an off-duty NYPD detective in the head with an 11-inch meat cleaver during a dramatic Midtown Manhattan
confrontation has been identified as Akram Joudeh, 32, formerly of Qeens. Joudeh was shot multiple times on West 32
Street, near Penn Station, by several officers at around 5pm Wednesday after a dramatic chase that culminated in three
officers being injured, cops said. The detective suffered a six-inch gash from his temple to his jaw, while Joudeh was
left in hospital in critical but stable condition.
NYPD
cops shoot man who struck officer with butcher knife in Midtown. A madman with a meat cleaver, upset over his
car getting booted, was shot by cops in Midtown on Thursday after he sliced an off-duty NYPD detective in the head during a
chaotic confrontation. The mayhem began less than a block from Penn Station during the height of rush hour after Akram
Joudeh went into a blind rage when his illegally parked Nissan Sentra was slapped with a wheel lock, cops said. It
ended with Detective Brian O'Donnell recovering from a 6-inch gash that runs from his temple to his jaw and his attacker in
critical condition.

arrested, police have revealed. The vehicle, a Peugeot 607 without a licence plate, was found with its hazard lights
flashing close to the landmark building in the heart of the French capital. Documents with writing in Arabic were also
found in the car. Police say the car's owner, who is now in custody, is on an intelligence services watchlist of people
suspected of religious radicalisation.
Hollande
Urges France To "Embrace Islam" Hours Before "Radicalized Fanatics" Are Arrested In Latest Terror Plot. Earlier
today, the French interior ministry announced that three women arrested in connection with a car loaded with gas cylinders
found near Notre Dame cathedral had been planning an attack on a Paris railway station. [...] According to NBC, the French
official said the youngest of the three women, a 19-year-old whose father was the owner of the car, had written a letter
pledging allegiance to ISIS. Sunday's discovery of the Peugeot 607 laden with seven gas cylinders triggered a terrorism
investigation and revived fears about further attacks in a country where Islamist militants have killed more than 230 people
since January 2015. Furthermore, one of the women stabbed a police officer during her arrest before being shot and wounded,
Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said late on Thursday [9/8/2016]. "These three women — aged 39, 23 and
19 — had been radicalized, were fanatics and were in all likelihood preparing an imminent, violent act," Cazeneuve
said in a televised statement.

allegedly cried "Allahu Akbar" during a stabbing attack that left a 21-year-old British woman dead in front of up to 30
onlookers at a backpackers hostel in Australia's north-east. The 29-year-old suspect allegedly repeated the
phrase — which means God is greatest in Arabic — when arrested by Queensland police who were
"confronted with a terrible scene" at the hostel in Home Hill — about 100km south of Townsville —
on Tuesday night.

investigating whether Virginia stabbings were ISIS-inspired. Federal authorities are investigating a weekend
stabbing in Virginia to see whether the attacker may have been trying to behead a victim and whether the attack was inspired
by the Islamic State terror group. Wasil Farooqui, 20, was charged with two counts of aggravated malicious wounding in
the stabbing attack Saturday [8/20/2016] that left two people wounded. The FBI confirmed to Fox News it is investigating the
dual stabbing alongside the Roanoke County Police Department. A source familiar with the case also told Fox News the FBI is
investigating the attack as a possible terrorism-related incident.
FBI
Investigating Possible ISIS-Inspired Knife Attack in Virginia. The FBI has launched a federal terrorism
investigation into a weekend stabbing in Roanoke, Virginia, looking at whether the attacker may have been trying to behead
his victim in an alleged ISIS-inspired assault, sources told ABC News. Federal authorities have been aware of the
alleged attacker, 20-year-old Wasil Farooqui of the Roanoke area, for some time, sources familiar with the case told ABC
News. In the past year, sources said, he traveled to Turkey and may have tried to sneak into Syria, where ISIS is
recruiting and inspiring sympathizers from around the world.

the incident in the train carriage in the eastern canton of Saint Gallen. The attack came as the man set the carriage
on fire and stabbed at passengers, including a six-year-old child, leaving four people in hospital.
Muslim
train attacker in Switzerland described as crime of passions. After a Muslim burned and stabbed at least seven
people on a Swiss train, the Swiss have already begun doing damage control, refusing to classify this incident as
terrorism. Isn't they've invented a new, PC word for the attack, a crime of passions. Wonder how long it is
before leftists in this country demand Muslim terrorist attacks be described as crime of passions rather than actual
terrorist attack.
Seven
people injured in attack on Swiss train. Seven people have suffered burn and knife wounds in an attack on a Swiss
train, according to St Gallen police. The suspected attacker, described as a 27-year-old Swiss man, reportedly set fire to
a train in northeastern Switzerland after igniting a flammable liquid.
Woman, attacker killed after fire, stabbing on Swiss
train. Police are still searching for a motive but said there's no indication the suspect, identified only as a 27-year-old Swiss man from a
neighboring region, had ties to extremist groups.
The Editor says...
Random attacks on train passengers don't happen — except when the attacker is a Muslim. The article above goes on to remind us that
the same thing happened on another train last month.
Charleroi, Belgium
August 6, 2016
Belgian police attacker shot and killed
in Charleroi. A man shot by police after he attacked two officers with a machete in the Belgian city of
Charleroi has died. The women officers' injuries are not life-threatening. The assailant is said to have shouted
"Allahu Akbar" ("God is greatest" in Arabic) during the assault outside the city's main police station. Belgian Prime
Minister Charles Michel told broadcaster RTL by phone: "Initial indications very clearly point towards terrorism."
Islamic
State claims responsibility for machete attack on Belgian police officers. Islamic State has claimed responsibility for a machete
attack that wounded two police officers in the Belgian city of Charleroi, calling it an act of reprisal carried out by one of its "soldiers".

(God is greatest) injured two female police officers before being shot outside the main police station in the southern
Belgian city of Charleroi on Saturday, police in the city said. The attacker, who was shot by a third officer,
subsequently died of his wounds, but the police officers were out of danger, they added.
Belgian
PM calls machete attack on cops a likely act of terrorism. Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel said Saturday [8/6/2016]
that "preliminary indications" suggest an attack by a machete-wielding man on two police officers in Charleroi was an act of terrorism.
The attacker was shot and killed by police after striking two female offices with the large knife while shouting "Allahu Akhbar (God is
great)," according to police spokesman David Quinaux, Belgian public broadcaster RTBF reported. One officer received deep cuts to
the face, but both were out of danger, Charleroi police said on Twitter.
Muslim
knifeman shouting 'Allahu Akbar' stabs two Belgian policewomen in street rampage. A machete-wielding attacker
who shouted 'Allahu Akbar' before injuring two policewomen has died after being shot by a third officer. The man, who
was armed with the knife, stabbed the two officers outside the police station in the Belgian city of Charleroi —
38 miles south of the capital Brussels. They were injured during the attack and one of the female officers suffered
significant 'wounds to the face', according to reports.

Belgian police hurt by machete-wielding assailant shouting 'Allahu akbar'. A machete-wielding man shouting
"Allahu akbar" (God is the greatest) wounded two policewomen in southern Belgium on Saturday [8/6/2016] before being shot dead, in what
appeared to be the latest in a string of jihadist attacks in Europe. The attack outside the main police station in the city of
Charleroi, around 60 kilometres (40 miles) south of Brussels, left one of the policewomen with "deep wounds to the
face" while the other was slightly injured, Belga news agency said.
London
August 3, 2016
London:
Somali who stabbed six, killed American, is a devout Muslim, read jihad books. Zak [Zakaria] Bulhan launched a
six minute rampage on Wednesday night [8/3/2016] which left five people injured and the wife of an American professor dead in the
Russell Square area of the capital. After initially circulating reports that a "white chubby man" was responsible for the
attack, the media subsequently reported that Bulhan, an immigrant of Somali origin, was the culprit, yet press outlets still
bizarrely insisted on calling him "Norwegian". Within hours of the stabbings, authorities signaled that "mental health"
problems and not terrorism was the main motivation behind the attack, an obvious attempt to calm fears that Islamic terrorism
had once again struck Europe after a series of bloody incidents in France and Germany. However, it has since emerged that
Bulhan could easily have been inspired by ISIS spokesman Abu Mohammed al Adnani's call for would-be jihadists to launch stabbing
attacks against western "disbelievers". According to Bulhan's former school friend Rakesh Naidu, the killer "was a devout
Muslim and he would passionately defend it."
London knifeman was "devout Muslim"; neighbor
says had no mental problems. Immediately after the attack happened, British authorities said that the attacker
had serious mental health issues and no link to terrorism. Now his neighbor has come forward and revealed that he had
no mental health issues but a big interest in the Islamic State (ISIS). The British (and U.S.) authorities try to obscure the
motivating ideology of jihad terrorists every time there is a jihad attack. They are doing everything they can to keep their
people from getting the idea that there is a jihad threat at all. This is a grave disservice to Britons and Americans, and
the ignorance and complacency this strategy fosters endanger us all.
Somali
in London knife attack whom police said was just mentally ill 'recommended Jihad terror books'. The British
authorities have said Zakaria Bulhan — the 19-year-old Norwegian man of Somali descent arrested on suspicion of
murdering American tourist Darlene Horton in London on Wednesday night [8/3/2016] and stabbing five others — does not
necessarily have any links to Islamic terrorism. However, Heat Street has found evidence that a person using the same
name — Zakaria Bulhan — has listed at least one book advocating violent jihadism in their personal
account on the Good Reads website since 2014.
American
Woman Killed in London Knife Attack: Cops. An American woman was killed and five other people injured in
a stabbing attack on the streets of the British capital, police said Thursday [8/4/2016]. A 19-year-old of Somali ancestry
was arrested on suspicion of murder after the incident in Russell Square, a busy area near the British Museum. Another
American citizen was among the injured — along with Australian, Israeli and British nationals, according to London's
Metropolitan Police.
Russell
Square stabbing attack 'not terror related', say police after interviewing Norwegian suspect. A Norwegian man
was being held in custody on Thursday [8/4/2016] on suspicion of murdering an American woman in a "random" stabbing rampage
in central London. Investigators say the 19-year-old suspect, who is of Somali origin and moved to the UK aged five, is
mentally ill and has no known links to terror groups or radicalisation. Witnesses described their horror as a knife-wielding
man launched his attack on passers-by in Russell Square, stabbing anyone he could reach late on Wednesday evening.

British
security services warn attack on UK is 'very likely' as churches on terror alert after Normandy priest murder.
A terrorist attack in the UK is "highly likely" following attacks in other parts of Europe, a five-judge tribunal has heard,
as churches in Britain are told to tighten security after the murder of an 85-year-old priest in Normandy. The
heightened state of security comes as images threatening attacks in London and other major world capitals were reportedly
posted on Telegram, a messaging app used by jihadis.
ISIS
teen who killed priest passed background check for airport job. A French Islamic State fanatic who ended up
murdering a Catholic priest "easily" passed a police investigation to become an airport baggage handler, it was revealed
today [7/29/2016]. Abdelmalik Petitjean and Adel Kermiche, both 19, were on terrorist watchlists when they slit Father
Jacques Hamel's throat in Normandy on Tuesday. Now it has emerged that Petitjean worked full-time at Chambery airport
in the Savoie region, which is used by more than 250,000 passengers a year including many Britons, until just three months
ago. He started as a porter there in December after completing his baccalaureate at the Marlioz high school in nearby
Aix-les-Bains, where he lived.
France
was warned about terrorist who killed priest in church attack. French authorities were warned that one of the
ISIS jihadists who slit the throat of a Catholic priest was likely going to carry out a terrorist attack, it was revealed
Thursday [7/28/2016]. Police across the European nation received a photograph of an unidentified man believed to be Abdel
Malik Petitjean, 19, four days before the savage attack inside a church in Normandy. The picture was accompanied by a
message warning that the person in the photo "could be ready to participate in an attack on national territory," a French
prosecutor announced Thursday.
'We
have to fight this war' Hollande takes immediate action in Normandy (take notice Merkel). Francois Hollande has
arrived at a Normandy church just an hour after it was targeted by Islamist terrorists — in stark contrast to Chancellor
Angela Merkel who took more than a day to even speak about four horror attacks in Germany. The French president visited
the scene in the town of Saint Etienne du Rouvray after two attackers, allegedly shouting "Allah Akbar", stormed a church and
took hostages at around 10am local time. Speaking at the scene, the president said France was "at war" with the
barbaric Islamic State (ISIS) and slammed what he described as a "vile terrorist attack".
Why
did no one act? Normandy Catholic church was on ISIS terror 'hit list' found last year. The church
Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray was one of a number of Catholic churches on a terrorist "hit list" found on a suspected ISIS
terrorist, raising questions as to whether it had heightened security. The church in Normandy was the scene of a
shocking attack this morning where a priest was murdered by two knifemen shouting "Allah Akbar". The information about
it being on a hit list was discovered on Sid Ahmed Ghlam, 24, who was arrested last April.
France: Police arrest 1 in connection
with priest's beheading. French police have arrested one person in connection with the beheading of a priest at
a church in Normandy, northern France, a "source close to the inquiry" told Reuters. The source reported on condition
of anonymity, as they were not authorized to comment on the case. No further details as to the identity of the suspect
were revealed.84-year-old priest Jacques Hamel was murdered in the attack by two Muslim terrorists, and another person was
critically wounded, before the assailants were shot dead by police.
Elderly
priest, 86, is 'beheaded' by two ISIS knifemen shouting 'Allahu Akbar' after they took nuns and worshippers hostage at French
church. Two ISIS knifemen who stormed a church in Normandy forced an elderly priest to kneel before filming
themselves butchering him and performing a 'sermon in Arabic' at the altar, a terrified witness has revealed. The
attackers, claimed as 'soldiers' by ISIS, were both known to French police before they cut the throat of 84-year-old priest
Jacques Hamel at the church in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray near Rouen. Both were shot dead by police marksmen as they
emerged from the building shouting 'Allahu Akbar' following the attack that also left a nun critically injured.
Normandy
church terror: ISIS knifemen made priest, 84, kneel as they slit his throat. A priest had his throat slit and
several others were taken hostage after armed men stormed a church in Normandy during morning mass today [7/26/2016], as
President Francois Hollande said ISIS had declared war on France. The hostage, said to be 84-year-old Father Jacques
Hamel, was killed by the attackers, who stormed a church in the town of Saint Etienne du Rouvray at around 10am local
time. The knifemen slit his throat after they entered the church by the back door shouting "Allah Akbar", according to
local media. One of the attackers was tonight named as Adel Kermich. The victim was filmed as he was forced to
kneel before the sadistic killers knifed him in the throat, one of the nuns has said.
Hollande: Deadly
church attack in France carried out in name of ISIS. A deadly hostage-taking at a Catholic church in Normandy,
in which a priest was killed and another person seriously wounded, was a terror attack committed in the name of ISIS, French
President Francois Hollande has said. Speaking to journalists in the northern French town of Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray,
where two men took five people hostage during morning Mass Tuesday, Hollande said the attack was a "cowardly assassination"
carried out by "by two terrorists in the name of Daesh" — another name for ISIS.
Analysis:
Islamic State's first act of war on European Christianity. Regardless of whether Tuesday's attack was the work of Islamic State or
whether it was merely inspired by the jihadi rhetoric emanating from the so-called caliphate, its symbolism is hard to ignore. Previous
attacks in France perpetrated by Islamic State and in its name have been against freedom of speech (Charlie Hebdo), Western liberalism (the
Bataclan theater), the ideals of the French Revolution, which stand at the heart of Western thought (the Bastille Day truck attack in Nice)
and against Jews (Hyper Cacher).
White
House Stresses 'Religious Liberty' Commitment After Normandy Attack, Doesn't Mention ISIS. The two terrorists, one who tried to go
fight in Syria after the Charlie Hebdo attack but was stopped and briefly imprisoned, were shot dead by police. Another man suspected to
have a connection to the attack was arrested. ISIS' Amaq news agency quickly claimed responsibility for the attack: "The two executors
of the attack on a church in Normandy, France, were soldiers of the Islamic State. They executed the operations in response to calls to target
countries belonging to the crusader coalition."
ISIS
Beheads 86-Year-Old Priest in France. Democrats Mention ISIS ZERO Times At DNC. That's right —
61 speakers, zero mentions of ISIS. But the Democrats did find time to put an illegal immigrant on stage, as well as an
irritating comedic actress who uses her spare time auctioning sanitary napkins. They found time to take down "offensive"
Mississippi state flags and wave Palestinian ones on the floor of the convention. They found time for another actress who
claimed that the "border crossed" her family, and a video from J.J. Abrams about that Queen of Mystery and Light, Hillary
Clinton. The Democrats know their priorities. And defeating ISIS isn't one of them.
Normandy:
Jihadist Mosque Next Door to Beheaded Priest's Church. The more details that emerge surrounding the gruesome
lethal attack on a priest in northern France Tuesday [7/26/2016], the more it appears that the attack could have been
foreseen and perhaps prevented. On Tuesday morning, two jihadists associated with the Islamic State entered the parish
church of Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray in Normandy while 84-year-old Father Jacques Hamel was celebrating Mass in the company of
several members of the parish. The assailants seized Father Hamel and slit his throat before taking the other members
of the congregation as hostages.
Ansbach, Germany
July 23, 2016
Germany: Syrian suicide bomber
in 'chat' directly before attack. A Syrian with suspected links to the Islamic State terrorist group (ISIS) who
blew himself up outside a German music festival in Ansbach, Bavaria, was in contact with another person "who influenced the
attack" immediately beforehand, authorities said Wednesday [7/27/2016]. The 27-year-old failed asylum-seeker, who
wounded 15 people at a nearby cafe late Sunday [7/24/2016] when he was refused access to the festival venue, had been
speaking to an unknown person in an "intensive" online chat, Bavaria state interior minister Joachim Herrmann said.
"Apparently he had direct contact with someone who had significant influence on the way the attack played out," Herrmann was
quoted by DPA news agency as saying on the sidelines of a state government meeting.
Suspected
attacker dies in 'deliberate' explosion at a restaurant near Nuremberg. The 27-year-old, named locally as
Mohammad Daleel, injured 12 people outside a packed wine bar in Ansbach, near Nuremberg at 10pm last night after being turned
away from an open-air music festival filled with 2,500 people because he didn't have a ticket. Instead he walked to a
bar in the centre of Ansbach, a town of 40,000 that is also home to a US Army base, and detonated a DIY bomb filled with metal
shavings and screws. It was the fourth violent attack on members of the public in Germany in less than a week and authorities
have now ordered increased security at airports and train stations.
The Editor says...
Really? He was snubbed at a music festival, so he went home (or somewhere), picked up his suicide bomb, and went
back to use it? Or did he hastily assemble it from materials he found around the house? Hard to believe.
It would be far easier to believe he was an easily-offended Muslim who didn't
like the idea of infidel revelers having fun at a music festival involving alcohol and unescorted ladies. He probably spent
all day assembling his bomb.
Ansbach explosion: Syrian asylum seeker
blows himself up in Germany. A failed Syrian asylum seeker has blown himself up and injured 15 other people
with a backpack bomb near a festival in the south German town of Ansbach. The 27-year-old man, who faced deportation to
Bulgaria, detonated the device after being refused entry to the music festival, Bavarian officials say. About 2,500
people were evacuated from the venue after the explosion. It is the third violent attack in Bavaria in a week.
The state's premier described it as "days of horror".
Suicide bomb hits Ansbach,
Germany in latest violent attack. The Syrian suicide bomber who injured 15 people in a Sunday night attack on a
music festival in Ansbach, Germany, left behind a video pledging allegiance to ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, Bavarian
Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann said Monday [7/25/2016]. The ISIS-affiliated media group Amaq also claimed the
attacker was an ISIS "soldier" in a statement the group's supporters posted online Monday, but there is no evidence
he was in contact with ISIS or directed to carry out an attack.
Police:
Bavarian official says attacker in Germany explosion was denied asylum. Bavaria's top security official says a
man who blew himself up after being turned away from an open-air music festival in the southern German city of Ansbach was a
27-year-old Syrian who had been denied asylum.

Update:
'Balcony
Man' Who Stood Up to Munich Shooter To Face Prosecution for Insulting the Dead. The Munich resident who hurled
insults at shooter Ali David Sonboly as he was carrying out an attack on a shopping mall has been accused of libel, the
Munich prosecutor has announced. Thomas Salbey became an internet sensation after footage of him hurling abuse at
Sonboly, from the balcony of his fifth floor apartment was posted on Twitter. But while many praised Mr. Salbey
for standing up to the gunman — who aimed shots in his direction — Florian Weinzierl, a spokesman for
the Munich prosecutor, has confirmed that Mr. Salbey is to be charged with libel for his comments. It is not known
who reported Mr. Salbey to the authorities.
BBC
Scrubs 'Ali' From Munich Killer's Name On TV, In Articles, and On Social Media. The BBC has unilaterally chosen
not to report the Munich attacker's full name, in what appears to be an attempt to scrub any Muslim or Islamic heritage link
to its coverage of the incident. Most sources at this point suggest that Ali David Sonboly — the Munich
attacker who targeted children and killed nine yesterday — is not connected to radical Islam, but the BBC has gone
to extraordinary lengths to try to keep any reference to his heritage out of its coverage, opting to name him only as "David
Sonboly". Other news organisations including the Wall Street Journal, Independent, Daily Mail, and Sky News named the
attacker as "Ali David Sonboly" or "David Ali Sonboly". CNN even referred to him simply as "Ali Sonboly".
Ten
Dead In Shooting At Munich Shopping Mall. The teenager who opened fire at a shopping center in Munich killing
nine people Friday had planned the attack for over a year, German authorities said Sunday [7/24/2016]. The 18-year-old
German-Iranian gunman, not officially identified but named by local media as David Ali Sonboly, killed himself after the
attack Friday, which also left 35 people injured, including 10 seriously and four critically.
Munich
Shooter Identified as Ali Sonboly — Media Cultural Marxists Jump Into Action. The Munich shooter has
been identified as Ali Sonboly, an 18-year-old German with Iranian citizenship. The 18-year-old German/Iranian opened
fire in a crowded Munich shopping mall and a nearby McDonald's, killing nine people and wounding 16 others before killing
himself. However, as many are noting, the EU liberal media are trying to disconnect any reference to Islam despite the
eye-witness claims.
Afghan
youth arrested over possible role in Munich shooting: police. German police arrested a 16-year-old Afghan youth
on Sunday [7/24/2016] on suspicion of a connection to the killing of nine people by an 18-year-old gunman in Munich,
authorities said. The youth was under investigation for possibly having failed to report the plans of the gunman, who
later shot himself, a police statement said.
Munich
Shooting: 9 dead and 20 critical after attack on shopping centre — 3 gunmen on run. Munich is in the grip of a
co-ordinated terror attack as armed officers storm the city in search of three gunmen. Federal police have said at
least nine people are dead and 20 critical after the horror shooting which has prompted the city to declare a state of
emergency. Police have said one of the dead may be the shooter.
Second shooting
at Munich metro station after multiple dead at shopping centre. A second shooting was reported in Munich just
moments after at least nine people were killed and 20 injured in a nearby shopping centre. Reports revealed a gunman
opened fire at the Karlsplatz U-bahn metro station in Stachus Square, Munich's main square just three miles away from the
Munich Olympia centre where the first incident happened. People in the square were seen running away from a building
which looked like a church. Authorities blocked off the Hotel Stachus and a heavy police presence surrounded the hotel
where terrified travellers were holed up.
'Several
dead' and 10 injured in shooting rampage inside a Munich shopping centre as police hunt gunman. A gunman shouting 'Allahu Akbar' opened fire
at children in McDonald's before rampaging through a shopping mall, killing at least eight people. Munich is in lockdown tonight, as a major police
operation is ongoing around the city's Olympic Park, with the force warning people to stay in their homes and avoid public spaces. A ninth body has
been found tonight [7/22/2016] and investigators are looking into the possibility of it being the attacker.
Munich shooting: Police say nine dead
as manhunt continues. German police are engaged in a huge anti-terror manhunt in the city of Munich after nine
people died in a shooting at a shopping centre. Police are investigating whether one of the bodies is that of a perpetrator.
At least 10 people have been wounded. Three armed attackers were earlier reported to be on the run. Police urged
people to avoid public places.
Munich
killer had planned his attack for a year, investigators reveal. German investigators looking into Friday's mass shooting in Munich revealed
on Sunday the gunman had spent more than a year preparing his attack. The 18-year-old shooter, identified only as David S., visited the site of
a previous school shooting in the German town of Winnenden and took photographs, Bavarian investigator Robert Heimberger said. [...] He also received
inpatient psychiatric treatment in 2015 for two months, spokesman for the Munich prosecutor's office Thomas Steinkraus-Koch told reporters. "The
suspect had fears of contact with others" and depression, the spokesman said. Steinkraus-Koch added there was no evidence of any political
motivation to the crime, nor that the shooter killed specific victims.
BBC
'Fixes' Munich Killer Article Following Breitbart Expose Of Muslim Name Cover Up. The British Broadcasting
Corporation (BBC) has corrected its coverage of Munich killer Ali David Sonbaly following a Breitbart London expose of how
the global media giant was attempting to hide the murderers Muslim name. Despite sources outwardly rejecting any link
to radical Islam, the BBC still felt it necessary, in isolation, to scrub any reference to the name "Ali" in the killer's
name. The organisation chose to report his name as "David Sonbaly" on social media, on broadcast TV, and in its online coverage.
Munich
Terror: Gunman shouted 'Allahu Akbar' as he shot Children in McDonald's. A witness has claimed she heard the gunman
who has killed at least nine in a shooting rampage in Munich shout "Allahu Akbar" during the attack. The shooting at a McDonald's
across from the Olympia shopping mall occurred about 5:50 p.m, police said. A Muslim woman, named by CNN as Loretta, told the
channel she heard the gunmen shout "Allahu Akbar" — meaning God is Greatest in Arabic — as they shot children.
Angela
Merkel backlash: Fury erupts at German leader amid Munich shooting rampage. German Chancellor Angela
Merkel faced a furious backlash yesterday as the city of Munich mourned its dead in the wake of the horrific shootings.
As the horrifying scenes from Germany's third largest city sparked outrage across the world many in German pinned the blame
directly on the country's leading politician and her open door policy on migrants. Mrs Merkel cut short a holiday in
the Alps to return to the country but she has still not addressed the nation about this latest terrifying attack.
Of
Course: MSNBC Connects Munich Terror Attack Talk to GOP Convention. MSNBC on Friday [7/22/2016] used the
unfolding shooting spree in Munich to bash the Republican Party and connect the GOP convention to it. Regarding terror,
Daily Beast editor Christopher Dickey talked to Brian Williams and lectured, "What we're looking at now in Europe and, to
some extent, at the Republican convention and in the discourse in the United States, is a lot of talk about war as if we're
talking about a massive operation." Dickey insisted that the terror threat not be overstated: "Yet we're often
talking as if we're going to go to war with a billion Muslims. And I think we need to be very, very careful about
that. You are very careful. NBC is very careful."
Misunderstander
of Islam shouting "Allahu Akbar" executed children in McDonald's. An Islamist shot up a shopping mall in
Munich, Germany, located just blocks from the site of the 1972 Olympic massacre. Which was conducted by other Islamists
in the name of their ideology. This was, of course, just after they started executing children in a McDonald's
fast-food restaurant, which was reminiscent of the Nice terror attack in which the truck Jihadist apparently targeted women
with strollers. And let me venture a guess: the latest little Jihadist massacre was conducted by — or
facilitated through — some of the million or so of Islamist "migrants" who German President Angela Merkel allowed
to flow unchecked into the country. So, by all means, let's follow through with Hillary Clinton's plan to import a
million more Islamist refugees.
Wuerzburg, Germany
July 14, 2016
Germany
Train Attack: Afghan 'refugee' shouted "Allahu Akbar," motives "completely unclear". Barely 4 days after the deadly attack in
Nice, France that killed 84 people and left more than 300 injured, Germany has been hit by a terrorist attack. A 17 year-old Afghan 'refugee'
went on a stabbing spree inside a commuter train near the southern German city of Würzburg. According to eyewitnesses, the attacker shouted
"Allahu Akbar" as he attacked passengers with knife and axe — critically injuring four people. The attacker was killed by Special Forces
just 500 meters from the crime scene, as he tried to flee.
"I
am a Soldier of the Caliphate and I am Going to Carry Out a Suicide Attack in Germany["]. For a while it was
fashionable by experts to sneer at the inevitability that the "poor refugees" swarming Europe and the rest of the free world
included ISIS supporters. Surely such a thing was impossible. Even after Bataclan, they kept finding
excuses. But the latest axe attack in Germany by an ISIS refugee is the end of that road. The Muslim attacker was
of your classic "widow and orphan" flavor. He came as an unaccompanied minor. He was exactly the sort of migrant
that Merkel would cheerfully take selfies with. And then he began hacking away in a train car while shouting Allahu
Akbar. He had an ISIS flag in his room and ISIS took credit for his attack.
Germany:
Muslim Migrant Screaming 'Allahu Akbar' Injures 21 with [an] Axe. The latest jihad attack in Germany reveals
how difficult it is becoming for the political and media elites to maintain their fantasy-based narrative in the face of
reality. An axe-wielding Muslim refugee from Afghanistan stormed a train, screamed "Allahu akbar" and began attacking
passengers. This happened, of course, as a result of policies that Angela Merkel aggressively pursued. And as she
did so, she must have known that this kind of thing would start happening. What else could she possibly have
expected? Those who called for Europe to take in as many Muslim migrants as possible may have foreseen this: after all,
they insisted that the refugees were not a danger, but were in danger. Only racist bigoted Islamophobes would dare
express any skepticism about the wisdom of admitting these refugees, we were told. To oppose the Muslim migrant influx
into Europe was evidence of a moral defect, we were told.
Motive
of Muslim Refugee Axe Attacker Shouting "Allah Akbar" Unclear. [Scroll down] Motive unclear. There are so many
reasons why a Muslim would attack non-Muslims with an axe while shouting a Jihadist battle cry that originated with the
Muslim genocide of non-Muslims. Maybe it was the lack of a job or a failure to integrate. Or it was
raining. The possibilities are endless. But we know it had nothing to do with Islam.
German train attack: IS releases video
of 'Afghan knifeman'. The so-called Islamic State has released a video purporting to show an Afghan asylum
seeker making threats before attacking a German train. The 17-year-old injured five people with an axe and knife, one
critically, in the attack in Wuerzburg on Monday evening. He was shot dead by police. In the video, a young man
brandishing a knife says he is an "IS soldier" preparing for a suicide mission. German officials say they later found a
hand-painted IS flag in his room. The teenager reportedly shouted the Islamic phrase "Allahu akbar" ("God is great")
during the attack.
Germany
train axe attack: Afghan teenage refugee shouting 'Allahu Akbar' goes on bloody rampage hacking
passengers. An axe-man who stormed a passenger train and hacked at terrified passengers while shouting "Allahu
Akbar" has been identified as a 17-year-old Afghan who entered Germany as a lone refugee. The attacker was identified
by stunned government officials after a huge investigation was launched just hours after the bloody attack exploded.
The horror began at around 9mpm local time when the teenager stormed a train that was travelling close to Wurzburg in
southern Germany.
In Germany, Man Wounds at Least 20 People In Savage

Afghan
child refugee shouting 'Allahu Akbar' attacks 19 in axe attack on train in Germany. An Afghan refugee has
injured at least 19 people with an axe as he shouted "Allahu Akbar" during a rampage on a train in Germany. The
17-year-old — who was an "unaccompanied minor refugee" according to the Bavarian Interior Minister was wiedling an
axe and knife as he boarded the train. Police found a hand painted copy of an Islamic State flag in the bedroom of the
foster home where the German train attacker lived. He had only been with the foster parents for a fortnight.
Axe-wielding
Jihadist Wounds 21 on German Train. Muslim immigration continues to prove to be very, shall we say, problematic
for Germany, which recently absorbed over a million "refugees" from Muslim countries. On Monday evening [7/18/2016] a
17-year-old Afghan refugee attacked passengers on a regional train near Würzburg, in southern Germany with an axe and a
knife, injuring 21 people, three critically. A passenger onboard the train pulled the emergency brake and the assailant
then fled, but was later tracked down by a special forces team and shot dead. Bavarian interior minister Joachim
Herrmann told Bavarian TV that the 17-year-old had arrived in Germany seeking asylum as an unaccompanied minor. "There
is a statement that, shortly before he was shot by the police, he shouted out an Islamic slogan," said Herrmann. Hmm,
an Islamic slogan? What might that be?

Wuerzburg. A man armed with an axe injured four people on a train in southern Germany before being shot dead by
police, officials say. Three people were seriously hurt and one suffered minor injuries in the attack in Wuerzburg,
police said. Initial reports said up to 20 people had been injured but it was later revealed that at least
14 had been treated for shock. The identity of the attacker or the motive is not yet clear.
Nice, France
July 14, 2016
Nice attack: City refuses police call
to delete CCTV images. The local authorities in Nice have refused a request by French anti-terror police to
destroy CCTV images of last week's lorry attack. The Paris prosecutor's office said the request had been made to avoid
the "uncontrolled dissemination" of images. But officials in Nice have responded by filing a legal document, arguing
the footage could constitute evidence. It is the latest evidence of a growing dispute between the local and national
authorities in the wake of the attack.
Nice
Truck Driver Planned Attack a Year Ago, Had Accomplices. A truck driver who killed dozens on Bastille Day
revelers in Nice, France, had been planning the attack for months and had at least five accomplices, the Paris prosecutor
said Thursday [7/21/2016]. The suspected accomplices — four men and one woman — were in custody
in Nice, Francois Molins told a news conference, and were indicted Thursday on various terrorism charges. While none of
the accomplices was known to intelligence agents for ties to Islamic radicalism, one of them — identified as
Franco-Tunisian Ramzi A. — had been charged six times for other crimes, ranging from theft to violence.
Were
The Nice Attacks A False Flag Or A Lone Nut? The recent truck attack in Nice, France was, from the outset,
exploited by national governments and reported in a schizophrenic manner that, on one hand, declared the attacker a "weird"
loner acting completely on his own by virtue of his many psychological problems while, on the other hand, a terrorist attack
aimed at the allegedly democratic institutions of France and the Western world. Among the reports surrounding the
attack, many alternative media outlets are suggesting that the attack was yet another false flag engineered or at least
facilitated by Western intelligence agencies for the purposes of propaganda, psychic driving, and the establishment of the
"new normal" of constant terror and fear. So which is it?
MSNBC's
'truck crash' framing of France terror attack ignites Twitter mockery. An MSNBC tweet on late Thursday [7/14/2016] that framed
France's latest terror attack as a "truck crash" elicited a stinging response from readers. "Follow our live blog for the latest from
Nice after a truck crash leaves at least 70 dead," the network tweeted at 8:49 p.m. EST., well after even President Obama and
French President Francois Hollande called the event an act of terrorism. Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel, 31, killed at least 84 people
during Bastille Day ceremonies by plowing a giant truck through crowds along the Promenade des Anglais.
How
The Media Covers Up Muslim And #Blacklivesmatter Terrorism. The propaganda, the artful selection and deselection of facts, have
become as familiar to us as they were to any of the residents of the Soviet Union or North Korea. Anyone who pays attention knows not
only that they are being lied to, but can easily predict the lies that they will be told on the evening news even before they actually hear
them being spoken out loud. We always knew that the Muslim terrorist, even before he was identified, would turn out to be a secular
loner who was depressed over his family life. All the media had to do with Mohammed Bouhlel, the Islamic terrorist who murdered
84 people in Nice, France was to replay the same exact narrative as the one that they had fed us with Omar Mateen, the Islamic terrorist
who murdered 49 people in Orlando. Irreligious, depressed loner with family problems. Check. No connection to Islamic
terrorism. Suggestion of mental illness. Check and check. Insistence on his lack of interest in religion? One final check.
You'll
Never Guess Who Reuters Blames for the Nice Terror Attacks: Yep, "Muslim Grievances". After the Nice,
France terror attack — where approximately 84 people were killed and hundreds injured — Western
"mainstream media" is again in full damage control trying to rescue "the narrative," namely, that Islam has nothing to do
with terrorism. [...] Consider: if Muslims are terrorizing France due to social and political "grievances," why are they also
terrorizing and slaughtering other non-Muslim minorities who have no political power to "aggrieve" anyone?
Where
Did Unemployed France Terrorist Come Up With $142,000? Since the latest Muslim terrorists attack has pretty
much been swept away by other news, at least here in the states, it's curious to note that the piece of garbage killer sure
did have a lot of disposable cash for a guy who allegedly drove a truck for a living and had recently been fired.
After
Nice, France Grapples With How to Combat Terrorism. The Nice terror attack spurred finger pointing among
France's political elite about insufficient security during Bastille Day celebrations, as well as a sober acknowledgment that
the threat of radical Islamist terrorism has become a day-to-day reality for life in France. The terror attack that
killed 84 along the French Riviera on France's independence day, July 14, has challenged the political discourse in
France on how to combat terrorism.
Spengler
explains Nice attack's real significance. I don't think I have ever recommended the same author as the read of
the day twice in a row. But yesterday Spengler brought a meaningful framework to Turkey's attempted coup, and today he
puts the Nice massacre in perspective, making absolute sense by looking at important factors other observers ignore.
Writing in Asia Times as David P. Goldman, he deduces that Tunisian Mohamed Lahouaiej-Bouhlel, a known criminal, was allowed
to stay in France because he was a snitch for the police. [...] It makes sense. You have to know something about the Muslim
community and about the way police agencies really work to infer this.
Read the Non-Islamic Islamic
Magazine Article Describing How to Conduct a Nice-Style Truck Terror Attack. The entire October 2010 issue of Inspire —
the English-language journal of Islamonazism — is worth reading. It provides an excellent primer on the religious-slash-political-slash-military
ideology that has (according to the Democrat Party) nothing at all do with religion. Clerics of all stripes opine on the use of terror to accomplish world
domination. Religious authorities describe the rationale for killing non-believers. And so on. The article describing how to conduct a
Nice-style terror attack is excerpted below. Entitled "The Ultimate Mowing Machine", it pretty much fits in well with the other instructional material in
the magazine. Which is to say, another yet creative way to kill innocent children, women, and men, in the most painful and vicious ways imaginable.
Nice
terror attack: 'soldier of Islam' Bouhlel 'took drugs and used dating sites to pick up men and women'. The
Bastille Day killer described by Isil as a "soldier of Islam" regularly used dating sites to pick up male and female lovers,
it was claimed on Sunday night [7/17/2016]. Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel's mobile phone records suggest he used dating
websites and dabbled with drugs and drink, French media reported. The handset was picked up by police officers after
they shot him dead last Thursday in a lorry that he had used to kill 84 people on the Promenade des Anglais, in the French
city of Nice.
More
suspects arrested in connection with truck attack in Nice. French authorities on Sunday arrested two more
suspects potentially linked to the man who rammed a truck into crowds, killing 84 people in this French Riviera city, as
investigators sought to determine his path to radicalization and whether he acted alone. [...] Seven people have been
detained in connection with the Thursday attack, including Bouhlel's ex-wife, but she was reportedly released from custody
Sunday morning, according to authorities speaking to local media.
Attacker in Nice was 'radicalized rapidly,'
French interior minister says. The man who used a 20-ton truck to plow down hundreds of people in Nice this week, killing 84,
somehow became rapidly radicalized and hadn't shown up on any anti-terrorist intelligence radar, French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said
Saturday [7/16/2016]. The minister said Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel, 31, had had no record of making militant statements and was not known
to the intelligence services. It seems he became radicalized very quickly," Cazeneuve said, without offering specifics.
So much for being a "lone wolf."
Attack on Nice: Five held by French police.
Five people believed to be linked to the man who killed 84 people in Nice are in police custody, the Paris prosecutor's
office says. Three arrests were made on Saturday and two on Friday, including the man's estranged wife, Le Monde
reported. Mohamed Lahouaiej-Bouhlel drove a lorry into crowds marking Bastille Day on the Promenade des Anglais on
Thursday before he was shot dead by police. So-called Islamic State claimed one of its followers carried out the attack.
FBI
has found no evidence that Orlando shooter targeted Pulse because it was a gay club. The FBI has found no
evidence so far that Omar Mateen, who killed 49 people and wounded more than 53 at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, chose the
popular establishment because of its gay clientele, U.S law enforcement officials said. "While there can be no denying
the significant impact on the gay community, the investigation hasn't revealed that he targeted Pulse because it was a gay
club," a U.S. law enforcement official said.
France: Another truck bomb parked near Nice defused, Muslim suspect
arrested. The French Special Forces defused an explosive-laden truck parked on a highway near Nice, local media reports.
A bomb disposal operation was conducted on a highway near Nice where a truck attack occurred Thursday night.
France
has 7th terrorist attack in 18 months, media blames the truck. A radical jihadist from Tunisia drove a truck
into a crowd of people in the southern French city of Nice where people were celebrating Bastille Day, the French equivalent
of the Fourth of July, killing 84 and wounding more than 100. The American media's knee jerk reaction was to blame the
truck. France has become ground zero in the war on terror after radical jihadists attacked the European nation for the
seventh time in 18 months on Thursday.
As if he really means it:
Obama
vows to 'destroy' ISIS after Bastille Day attack. President Obama pledged to "destroy" ISIS following the
heinous terror attack at a Bastille Day celebration in France — and used remarks to diplomats at the White House
to defend his own legacy. "We cannot give in to fear or turn on each other or sacrifice our way of life. We
cannot let ourselves be divided by religion, because that's exactly what the terrorists want," Obama said, pledging to be
"vigilant" in defending security and liberty. Obama urged the gathered diplomatic corps "to step back and reflect on
what we are doing to eliminate this kind of chronic violence." But sensing the end of his presidency, Obama pivoted to
focus on legacy items he wants to be remembered by and not the terror acts that have become a near weekly occurrence.
Nice
is All You Need to Know. This is what we are up against and it is high time we have a clear picture of what it
is.
It's not just about immigration the beast who did this was a citizen of France, just as the Orlando shooter
was an American born Muslim.
It is not just about religion: It is a totalitarian system that embraces
religion, law, morality and (most of all) culture.
It is not just about a lone wolf. It is planned,
advocated, inspired, supported in concert with a monstrous movement that wants to conquer the world.
It is not
about jobs or alienation. Their culture is what alienates them and keeps them unemployed.
Islam is not
about Peace. Islam means submission and this is what happens to the children of those who do not submit.
It
is not at all about the oil or the U.S. or the decadence of The West. It is about Sharia, The Caliphate and Jihad.
Its not just about Terror, It is annihilation by the most brutal and indiscriminate means possible.
It is
not about to stop. If it we do not wake up and stop it. It will kill you gladly.
At Least
80 Dead In Terror Attack On Nice. Eighty-four people — including several children — died
in the French city of Nice after a terrorist plowed a truck, which was "loaded with" grenades and other arms, into a large
crowd during Bastille Day celebrations Thursday night, according to officials and the French president. As of Friday 8 a.m.
local time, 18 individuals were in critical condition, 50 were lightly injured, and 120 were receiving treatment, according to a
spokesman for the Ministry of the Interior.
Nice terrorist identified as
31-year-old French man from Tunisia. The terrorist who carried out the recent attack in Nice has reportedly
been identified as a 31-year-old local resident, originally from Tunisia. At least 84 people were killed and more than
100 wounded when he drove into a Bastille Day parade and then opened fire with a handgun. More weapons, including
grenades, were found in the truck after security forces killed the attacker. The Israeli Foreign Ministry is checking
whether any Israelis were present during the attack. "The truck simply cut people down and left bodies behind," said a
witness. "The driver continued speeding while he ran over the bodies. It looked like an accident at first, but we
understood very quickly that he was deliberately running over people."
Huge
cache of guns, grenades and 'larger weapons' found inside bullet-riddled truck. Bloodshed befell France's most
important national holiday last night as 80 people were massacred when a truck mowed through crowds and the driver unleashed
a hail of bullets on fleeing revellers. But fears have already been raised the terror attack on the seaside resort of
Nice could have been far deadlier had police not shot the gunman dead when they did. A huge cache of guns, grenades and
'larger weapons' were said to have been found inside the bullet-riddled lorry after it ground to a halt on the busy
promenade — suggesting the driver intended to spill more blood.
Bastille
Day attacker was a delivery driver born in Tunisia. The man who carried out the murderous rampage in Nice has
been identified as Mohamed Lahouaiej-Bouhlel, a French-Tunisian petty criminal, according to reports. The 31-year-old
delivery driver, a resident of the French Riviera city, was found guilty in March of violent contact — but he had
no known links to terrorism and had not been under surveillance, sources told the Telegraph. "An operation is currently
under way at the dead suspect's home in Nice. It is being raided by officers," an investigative source told the paper.
Nice
Airport evacuated day after Bastille Day terror attack. French troops rushed to the airport after a suspect
package was found at around 1 pm. Passengers were forced to leave the airport and wait nervously outside as soldiers
conducted a sweep. The airport has now re-opened to travellers. Yesterday [7/14/2016] a terrorist purposefully
drove a truck for one mile through a crowd of people celebrating Bastille Day. At least 84 people were hit and
killed, while dozens more have been left in a serious or critical condition.
Nice
attack was due to 'decades of multiculturalism and political correctness' says Polish Interior Minister.
Poland's right wing interior minister Mariusz Blaszczak has blamed last night's terror attack in Nice on 'multiculturalism'
after it emerged the killer was a French Tunisian living in the city. Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel, 31, killed 84 people
as he drove his large lorry along the main promenade in Nice indiscriminately knocking down pedestrians who had just finished
watching the city's Bastille Day fireworks. Unlike other international politicians, Blaszczak blamed France and the
European Union's Foreign affairs commissioner Federica Mogherini for last night's deadly attack.
Enough. The latest
Muslim atrocity in Nice will have far-reaching international consequences, and not just for the countries of Europe.
After promising a "pitiless" war against Islamic aggression, the Hollande government in France effectively came to an end
last night on the Promenade des Anglais and will soon enough be replaced by the Marine Le Pen government. The British,
having voted themselves out of the European Union, are effectively under siege by hordes of invaders gathered in Calais,
preparing to storm the Chunnel in order to bring their unique brand of vibrant diversity to perfidious Albion's shores.
Meanwhile, in Germany, the charmless Mutti Merkel mutters to herself as she plots to import even more "refugees" in order to
destroy the Bundesrepublik she grew up learning to hate as a child in communist East Germany. It will also affect the
course of the American election. The utter bankruptcy of the Obama administration's deliberately feckless, see-no-evil
approach to Muslim terrorism is now on plain display for all the world to see.
At
least 50 feared dead and shots fired as lorry RAMS into crowd celebrating Bastille Day in Nice. A lorry ran down a large group
of people in the southern French city of Nice during a suspected terrorist attack. At least 50 people are feared dead with more
than 100 injured during the Bastille Day attack. Eyewitnesses have reported that hostages have been taken in two hotels and a restaurant
in the city. [...] It is not known at this stage is whether the attack was terror related.
The Editor says...
Technically, at the moment the article above was written, it was probably true that they didn't know that the attack was "terror related,"
i.e., Islamic terrorism. But whenever an act of mass murder takes place in the 21st century, whether through the use of a pressure cooker bomb,
a speeding truck, a firearm, or hijacked airplane, it is reasonable to surmise that the event is yet another act of Islamic terrorism. As far
as I know, there hasn't been a spate of Catholic terrorism lately, or a rash of Mennonite terrorism, or widespread Mormon terrorism. As soon as
it becomes evident that a mass-casualty event has been deliberately inflicted on a number of people, it is obvious that the attack can be blamed on
those who "misunderstand" Islam. Unless the attack happens in the United States and the victims are all white police officers,
in which case, it's instantly attributable to violent black racists.
Delaware County, Pennsylvania
June 24, 2016
'Abdul
Wahi' held in shooting of Pa. police officer. Authorities say a suspect is in custody after a police officer
was shot several times in Delaware County, Pa. on Friday morning [6/24/2016]. The suspect was identified as Donte
Brooks Island. It took about three hours for upwards of 200 police to track down and arrest the alleged shooter.
Three others were taken into custody, but they have not yet been charged. The main suspect, though, is well known to law
enforcement. Island, who also goes by the name Abdul Wahi, lives in the Folcroft Station Apartments where police caught him
allegedly smoking weed and dealing drugs.
Muslim
Felon Shoots Cop 7 Times, then Opens Fire on Another — Media Silent on Terror. The suspect is
identified as Donte Brooks Island, aka Abdul Wahi. He is charged with two counts of attempted murder, aggravated
assault and other related offenses. Action News was there Friday as Island was taken to a patrol car. He is
currently being held on a $1 million bail. Island was recently released fro prison after serving time for drug and
firearms violations, District Attorney Jack Whelan said.
Pennsylvania:
Muslim Abdul Wahi shoots cop in the face multiple times. Likely a prison convert to Islam. How many are
roaming the streets, freed from prisons by Obama? This took place outside of Philly where the Muslims have a habit of
trying to kill cops.

Suicide Bomber Take 50 Germans Hostage At Theater, The Police Blast Him Just Before He Blows Himself Up. This was a close

Suicide belt, grenade found near German cinema

a hand grenade and was wearing a suicide belt, German Bild newspaper reports. According to the paper, the grenade was discovered by the
police after the incident. An eyewitness told Bild that the attacker was speaking in "broken German language." The police
said that they currently have no leads linking the man to radical Islam, and other motives are being looked into.
Twin Falls, Idaho

Twin
Falls, Idaho: Is Prosecutor attempting to downplay rape story? Why would he do that? Because the
whole narrative that keeps refugees flowing to cities and towns to supply cheap labor for multi-national corporations under
the guise of humanitarianism could come crashing down. That, carefully crafted, decades old narrative, is this:
refugees are good people, downtrodden souls, escaping war and poverty, and it is US tradition (indeed our role in the world!)
to care for those in need and so we must welcome refugees from around the globe who only want a better life for their little
children (even if they come from cultures that do not share our traditions, values and laws). Therefore, news about
refugee children raping and sexually assaulting American children simply must be covered-up. There is too much money
involved to let this story grow!
Twin
Falls Refugee Rape Victim Activists Call For Attorney To Step Down. In an exclusive interview with Breitbart
News, a local activist in Twin Falls demands U.S. Attorney Wendy Olson step down. The activists want to bring justice
to a five-year-old American girl who was raped on June 2 by a group of refugee children as a 14-year-old refugee videotaped
the horrible incident. Idaho activist Julie Ruf tells Breitbart News that statements made by Olson to protect the refugee
community in the wake of rapes indicate she is unfit for the job of protecting the Constitution.
Chief
Idaho federal prosecutor warns: "The spread of false information or inflammatory or threatening statements ... may
violate federal law". On June 2, a 5-year old girl was allegedly sexually assaulted at a Twin Falls, Idaho,
apartment building by three boys ages 7, 10 and 14. The exact nature of the sexual assault is unclear; but apparently the
7-year-old sexually touched the girl, and it seems that the 10- and 14-year-olds are being charged because they put the
7-year-old up to this. The boys may be Sudanese and Iraqi refugees resettled in Idaho; according to the Twin Falls
Times-News (Nathan Brown), "Officials suspect the boys have been in the [U.S.] fewer than two years," but "aren't sure if the
families are refugees." In the following weeks, rumors started flying on the Internet and in Twin Falls; as best I can
tell, many of the rumors were false. The boys were misidentified as Syrian refugees, rather than potential Sudanese and
Iraqi refugees. Though the crime is serious as it is, it was described as being much more serious, including as a gang-rape
at knife-point, with the children's fathers cheering the events after they happened. Apparently none of that is true.
Muslim
Migrants Sexually Assault 5-Year Old In Idaho. On 2 June, 2016 a five-year old girl with special needs was
playing outside her home at the Fawnbrook Apartments in Twin Falls, Idaho when she was taken by knife point to the shared
laundry facilities on the premises by three boys from two refugee families, ages 13, 9, and 8 years old who sexually
assaulted and urinated on her. The eight year old is also reported to have cut another young child's arm with his knife
a week before school was adjourned. According to the victim's mother, a trusted neighbor discovered her daughter with
the three boys. Her clothes had been stripped off by the boys who were also naked and the 13 year old had a phone which
allegedly held video of the incident. The mother and father of the victim promptly arrived on the scene after being alerted
by the neighbor.
Updated: Story of
Syrian refugees raping Idaho girl is wrong, prosecutor says. Authorities are denying reports that Syrians
gang-raped a child at knife-point in a Twin Falls apartment complex earlier this month, saying the false claims are being
spread to incite anti-refugee sentiments. "There were no Syrians involved, there was no knife involved, there was no
gang-rape," Twin Falls County Prosecutor Grant Loebs said Monday morning [6/20/2016]. His comments largely refute
several differing accounts about the incident circulating on anti-refugee resettlement and conspiracy websites and
anti-Muslim blogs. Most of those accounts claim a group of Syrian refugees sexually assaulted a mentally disabled girl
at knife-point June 2 in the laundry facilities of Fawnbrook Apartments, a low-income housing complex in Twin Falls, and
that the attack was celebrated by the perpetrators' families as city officials orchestrated a cover-up.
Raped
By PC — Five-Year-Old Idaho Girl Raped By Three Iraqi and Sudanese Refugees — Politically Correct Local
Government Frozen. You might have heard a story from Twin Falls Idaho about a 5-year-old girl sexually
assaulted / raped, by three older "Syrian refugees". As the word spread throughout the shocked community, the local police
and the county commission members quickly jumped into action to deny the claim. The County Leadership was furious: "the
three rapists were not Syrian refugees, and such lies should cease immediately". The police then clarified the record:
they are Iraqi and Sudanese men, and maybe they were refugees, or maybe not, we're not going to say.
Horror
and Hush-Up in Twin Falls, Idaho. Something wicked happened in Idaho's rural Magic Valley. The evil has
been compounded by politicians, media and special interest groups doing their damnedest to suppress the story and quell a
righteous citizen rebellion. On June 7, a brief news item appeared on local Twin Falls, Idaho-based KMVT about a
"reported sexual assault that possibly occurred near the Fawnbrook Apartments" five days earlier. Unconfirmed accounts
of the alleged crime on conservative-leaning websites, plus reports from area members of anti-jihad activist Brigitte
Gabriel's Act for America group and longtime watchdog Ann Corcoran's Refugee Resettlement Watch blog, culminated in coverage
on the powerhouse Drudge Report.
Cops,
media hide Idaho girl's sex assault by Muslim migrants. A 5-year-old girl was sexually assaulted by two boys at
an apartment complex in Twin Falls, Idaho — while a third boy filmed the attack — and some local
residents are charging the police and city officials with covering up the fact that the boys are from Muslim immigrant
families from Sudan and Iraq. Although not yet confirmed, the alleged perpetrators — migrant boys ages 14,
10 and 7 — appear to be from refugee families. At least three local newspapers have tried to discredit the
reports of the assault, focusing instead on a few details that were erroneously reported by bloggers while ignoring or
downplaying the broader truth of the story — that Muslim migrants stripped down and humiliated a vulnerable
little girl.
Report:
Three Syrian "Refugees" Rape Little Girl at Knifepoint in Idaho. Three Syrian refugees reportedly raped a
little girl at knifepoint in Idaho before urinating on her body, an incident that prompted furious residents to accuse Twin
Falls city council members of covering up the assault. The sexual assault allegedly took place on June 2, but has
received virtually no media attention aside from one vague KMVT report.

Terrorist In Ohio Takes Apartment Complex Hostage, And Then Opens Fire On American Police Officer. A Muslim
terrorist in Ohio, Mohammad Laghaoui, took hostages in an apartment complex and then opened fire with an AK-47 on an officer
once she arrived on the scene. The hostages were Mohammad's father and brother. Mohammad threatened to murder his
father and brother. His brother dialed 911 and Mohammad punched his father in the face and left, only to return with an
AK-47. His father and brother locked Mohammad out. He opened fire through the door and shot his father in the
arm. The officer, Deputy Katie Barnes, responded to the emergency call and arrived on the site. That is when
Mohammad opened fire on the officer.
Warren
County shooter says 'charges not accurate' after judge sets bond. The active shooter who ran from police for
seven hours last week was in court this morning. Meanwhile, Warren County Sheriff Deputies still can't find the

19-year-old shooter wounds own father, sheriff's deputy before arrest. The 19-year-old who spurred a seven-hour

arrested. When Warren County Sheriff's Deputy Katie Barnes responded to a domestic disturbance call at the Orchards of
Landen apartment complex Thursday night, she arrived alone.

Abdou Laghaoui, accused of shooting Deputy Katie Barnes, kept low profile. The 19-year-old charged with

Friday. "They kept to themselves," said James Gross. "We didn't see much of them, just saw them come and go."

Couple Arrested And Released After Making Terror Threats. Arkansas husband and wife Daphne and Alan Crawford
were charged with making terroristic threats Thursday [6/16/2016] by local law enforcement and released Friday. They
are now the focus of a manhunt by the FBI and Fayetteville Police Department, KNWA News reported.
Married
Muslim Converts Arrested in Arkansas for Making Terroristic Threats. A husband and wife in Northwest Arkansas
have been arrested on terror charges after allegedly threatening a waitress in a local diner. "People like you are the
reason we kill," the wife reportedly said to the victim. She further threatened the waitress on social media by posting
a picture of her husband in "Muslim attire" kneeling with an assault rifle. This was not the first time the couple
attracted the attention of law enforcement.
Arkansas:
Married Muslim couple who made terroristic death threats taken into custody for FBI questioning. This Muslim
convert couple has been making numerous death threats in their neighborhood. Like Omar Mateen, they have been wielding
Islam and threatening anyone who displeases them. They parade around like SS goons. In December 2015, the couple
was escorted out of Central Mall in Fort Smith after investigators said the pair was video recording stores in the building.
Just like the Orlando jihad, law enforcement appears to have done nothing about this. Just as in Orlando and many other
instances when all the warning signs have been there.

Threatens Death on Those Who Refuse to Accept Copies of the Quran: Police. A man is jailed on a charge of
terroristic threat Wednesday [6/15/2016] after threatening to impose the death penalty on several people who refused to take copies of
the Quran, Denton police say. Peshwaz Azad Waise, 28, was arrested just after 8 a.m. outside of the Denton County
Courthouse after several run-ins with police that morning and the night before. Denton police said officers responding
to a call for assistance Tuesday night [6/14/2016] were stopped by Waise, and that he was speaking irrationally and making
comments about God and Allah. Since Waise was not in violation of any law, the officers continued responding to the
initial call for help, police said.
Texas:
Muslim Threatens to KILL Those Who Refuse to Accept Copies of the QURAN. He's just being a good, devout
Muslim. Oppose him and you are "suppressing his freedom of religion," you islamophobe. Law enforcement thinks so,
too. Police said officers responded to a call for assistance, but said jihadi Peshwaz Azad Waise was not in violation
of any law. Death threats under sharia are not sanctioned by US law?

Lawrenceville, Georgia
June 1, 2016
Update:
Feds
clear Muslim flag attacker of hate crime. The FBI has determined that no hate crime occurred on the day after
Memorial Day in Lawrenceville, Georgia, when a Muslim woman dressed in a burqa came out of the woods behind a homeowner's
house, grabbed the family's large American flag and attacked them with it. The FBI was asked by local police to
investigate whether Amina Ali Ahra, 30, may have committed a hate crime when she attacked homeowner Dami Arno and her
17-year-old daughter while the two were drinking coffee in their garage on the morning of Tuesday, May 31. Ahra
grabbed the family's large flag off their mailbox and used the 4-foot long pole made of PVC pipe as a weapon, swinging it
wildly at Arno's head. The 42-year-old fought off the much larger Ahra and two neighbors helped restrain her until
police arrived.
Muslim
attack on flag-waving American family remains mystery. It's been two weeks since an Atlanta-area mother and her
daughter were attacked at their home by a burqa-clad Muslim woman who stole the American flag from their front yard and
charged at them, swinging the flagpole at the mother's head. The family says their lives have been turned upside down
by the attack, and they don't go anywhere now unless armed. Two weeks later, they say they're still waiting for answers
from their local police chief and the FBI. Who attacked them and why?
Story
about Somali woman who attacked Georgia Mom is surreal. This is a scary story and one sure to really tick you
off — in the wake of Orlando, for the authorities to be so protective of this immigrant's rights is simply mind blowing!
Police: Woman in Burka attacks Lawrenceville
family with American flag. A family in Lawrenceville said they were attacked by a total stranger just because
they were flying an American Flag. Amina Ahra, 30, was arrested on two counts of simple battery after being accused of
attacking a mother and daughter at their home. Dami Arno told police she was in the garage talking with her daughter
when she said Ahra came out of the woods wearing a full Burka, grabbed the flag from off the mailbox and charged at them.
Munich train station
May 10, 2016
One
dead, 3 hurt after stabbing spree at train station outside Munich. One person was killed and three others were
injured Tuesday morning when a knife-wielding suspected Islamist attacked people indiscriminately at a commuter rail station
outside Munich, Germany. [...] Investigators told the Suddeutsche Zeiting newspaper that witnesses had reported that the
attacker had shouted "Allahu Akbar!", the Arabic phrase meaning "God is Great!" during the assault. Merkur reported
that the suspect had yelled, "You infidels!", among other statements.
The
Global Outbreak of Mental Illness. On Tuesday [5/10/2016], a Muslim screaming "Allahu akbar" and "Infidel, you
must die" stabbed four people, killing one, at a train station near Munich. Nonetheless, Bavarian security officials
immediately denied that he "had an Islamic extremist motive." Then what caused the attack? Bavaria's state interior
minister Joachim Herrmann said that the attacker had "mental disorders." There you are. Nothing to do with Islam
here, folks. Don't go jumping to conclusions that these stabbings had something to do with Islam just because he
screamed "Allahu akbar" and "Infidel, you must die." He was mentally ill. That's all.
Brussels, Belgium
March 22, 2016
One
of Brussels airport bombers had worked there for five years. One of the jihadists who blew themselves up at
Brussels Airport last month had worked there. He had also briefly worked as a cleaner at the European Parliament
several years ago. The 24-year old Najim Laachraoui worked at the airport for five years until 2012, having been
recruited by a temp agency, Belgium's Flemish-language VTM television reported Wednesday [4/20/2016].
Belgian
minister says many Muslims 'danced' after attacks. Belgian Interior Minister Jan Jambon said Saturday that a
"significant" part of the Muslim population celebrated attacks, blaming the country's policies for failing to integrate
migrants into society. He did not explicitly refer to last month's jihadist attacks on Brussels' airport and metro
system that killed 32 people[.] "A significant section of the Muslim community danced when attacks took place,"
Jambon said in an interview with the Flemish-language De Standaard newspaper.
Belgians
seize key suspects in Paris, Brussels attacks. Belgian police detained two key suspects on Friday [4/8/2016] in the
Islamic State attacks on Paris and Brussels as operations go on to track down militants who have fought with or take direction
from leaders in Syria. Mohamed Abrini, a Belgian thought to have helped prepare the Nov. 13 bombing and shooting
attack that killed 130 people in the French capital, was held with two others, prosecutors said.
Belgian
vice PM acknowledges street celebrations following Brussels attacks. In the days following terrorist attacks in Brussels,
street celebrations broke out in several places in Belgium, the county's vice prime minister said. Jan Jambon made the statement
about the March 22 bombings, which killed 35 people, on Wednesday [3/30/2016] during a symposium titled "Terrorism, Israel and
International Law" and organized by the Dutch anti-racism and pro-Israel lobby group CIDI, or the Center of Information and Documentation
on Israel, in The Hague. Jambon, a rightist politician, made the remark while acknowledging Belgium has a jihadism problem.
Belgium
terror hotline operator to Jewish caller: Israel doesn't exist. Belgian Jews reacted with shock on Thursday [3/31/2016]
when an operator working Belgium's federal hotline on the terrorist attacks in Brussels told a Jewish caller that Israel does
not exist and is in fact called Palestine. The call Thursday [3/31/2016] to the Belgian Interior Ministry's hotline was
recorded and the audio file posted on the website of Joods Actueel, a Belgian Jewish monthly.
Brussels
Bomber Was 'Migrant Rights Activist' Who Lived Next Door To EU. The first man charged with the Islamic State
(IS) Brussels terror attacks is a migrant rights activist and 'freelance journalist' who lived next door to headquarters of
the European Union (EU). Faycal Cheffou is thought to be the "man in the hat" pictured next to suicide bombers Najim
Laachraoui and Ibrahim El Bakraoui as they entered Brussels airport shortly before 8am on the 22nd on March. A taxi
driver who dropped the men at the airport has identified him.
I wouldn't want to be this guy's cell phone provider.
Brussels
attack: Belgian police release 'man in the hat' suspect Faycal C citing lack of evidence. The only man arrested
and charged by prosecutors over the Brussels airport bombings has been released by Belgian police due to a lack of evidence.
Named by local media reports as Fayçal Cheffou, police said the suspect — who is also known as "the man in the hat" because
of his appearance in CCTV footage — is not the man suspected of being the mystery third bomber. Police said he had
none of the links to the Paris attacks that characterised the other three men who died carrying out last Tuesday's attacks and have
been identified.
Why
There Are Muslim Ghettos in Belgium, But Not in the US. Long before Tuesday's terror attacks in Brussels, it
was clear that Belgium had become a breeding ground for Islamist extremists. Hundreds of Belgian Muslims — as
many as 500, according to one estimate — have gone to Syria and Iraq to fight for ISIS, making Belgium by far
Europe's leading supplier of foreign jihadists. Last November's horrific slaughter in Paris was masterminded by a Belgian
radical, Abdelhamid Abaaoud, and at least four of the men who carried out those attacks were from the Brussels district of
Molenbeek. One of them was Salah Abdeslam, who was captured in Molenbeek, after an intense manhunt, on March 19.
For Islamist imams and terrorist ringleaders, such neighborhoods — heavily Muslim, densely populated, with high
unemployment and crime rates — have proved fertile territory for recruiting violent jihadists. "There is almost
always a link with Molenbeek. That's a gigantic problem, of course," Belgium's prime minister said after the Paris atrocities.
The
Brussels attacks were a terrorist interrogation failure. For years, Brussels has been the epicenter for
European outrage over the CIA's terrorist interrogation program. Now it is Belgium that has some explaining to do for its
failure to effectively interrogate a high-value terrorist — an interrogation that may have foiled last week's
deadly terrorist attacks. The carnage is a direct result of Europe's refusal to accept that terrorists must be treated
differently than common criminals. When Salah Abdeslam, believed to be the logistics chief for an Islamic State terrorist
cell, was captured, Belgian officials followed law enforcement procedures with precision. They provided Abdeslam a lawyer,
told him he had the right to remain silent and put him into the Belgian criminal-justice system. Four days later, the
terrorist cell carried out bombings in Brussels that killed 35 people — including at least four
Americans — and injured hundreds more.
Stop
Subsidizing Terrorists. It is telling that the Muslim terrorist and unemployed electrician, Ibrahim Abdeslam,
arrested just prior to the Brussels bombing, was struggling by with his wife on just 1,000 euros a month from welfare.
I raise that question because, to me, there is nothing more important to a terrorist than an independent income. How can you
plan your bombings and sew your suicide belts if you have to show up at the construction site to wire up junction boxes?
US
official says 2 Americans perished in Brussels attacks. At least two Americans have been confirmed killed in
the Brussels attacks, a U.S. official said Friday [3/25/2016], as Secretary of State John Kerry visited the stricken city to
express condolences and defended Belgium's counterterrorism efforts against "carping" by critics.
Columbia
University Op-Ed Claims Belgians Are To Blame For Brussels Attack. A student at Columbia University has
authored an editorial saying Belgians deserve to be blamed for Tuesday's Islamic terrorist attack in Brussels because their
society is a front of "Islamophobia." "Columbia's vigils and memorial services allow us to mourn victims and condemn
terrorism," writes student Brian Min in the Columbia Daily Spectator. "Moving forward, however, they should condemn
not only terrorism, but also the specific Islamophobic attitudes and policies that facilitated the recent attacks."
Min, a freshman planning to study French as well as women, gender, and sexuality studies, argues that the Brussels attack
and other terrorist attacks, are "usually not arbitrary events without any justification — they often are responses
to institutionalized hate and oppression."
From Paris to Brussels: Why the attacks
are linked. A clear connection is emerging between the men who carried out the Brussels airport and metro
bombings and the Islamist cell behind the Paris attacks last November in which 130 people died. Soon after the
13 November gun and bomb attacks in the French capital, it became evident that several bombers had come from Belgium
and that some of the bombs had been made in a flat in Brussels. The attacks have been claimed by so-called Islamic
State (IS), and key individuals are now being linked to the planning and execution of both.
State
Dept.: 'This Isn't About a Religion'. Tuesday's terrorist attack in Brussels was not about religion but a "depraved ideology,"
State Department spokesman John Kirby told reporters. "This isn't about a religion," he said. "This is about a warped and brutal,
depraved ideology that continues to be attractive to a small number of people in the Muslim faith — radicals and extremists."
"And we don't believe that it is indicative in any way of the Muslim faith or the people who practice Islam as a religion," Kirby continued.
"But it is a group that remains deadly, remains lethal. And we are going to remain focused on defeating them."
Belgian
Attacks Horrific, But Expected. As shocking as this morning's simultaneous terror attacks at Belgium's airport
and in its Metro system may be, they show the disturbing depth of the terrorist infrastructure which was allowed to take root
in the European Union capital's back yard. A series of police actions reportedly are underway targeting elements of that
infrastructure. It's a safe bet that some of those raids will be in Molenbeek, a Brussels suburb. It has been dubbed
"Europe's terrorism capital." Saleh Abdeslam, the key surviving player in November's horrific attacks in Paris, was arrested
in Molenbeek Friday [3/19/2016]. Police were thanked by a hail of bottles, stones and other debris by locals more loyal
to the terrorist than the land that gave them refuge.
Post-Jihad
Gesture Theater: Je Suis Sick of It. While homicidal, suicidal and genocidal jihadists are busy plotting the
next soft-target terror attacks on the West, docile Westerners are busy shedding cartoon tears and doodling broken hearts on
social media. [...] Echoing the "Je Suis Charlie" and "Je Suis Paris" rallying cries that followed the January 2015 Charlie
Hebdo jihad attack and the November 2015 jihad massacres in Paris and Saint-Denis, tens of thousands of people spread the
"JeSuisBruxelles" message with their thoughts, prayers and memes. And, of course, there will be flags lowered and
monuments lit up all over the world this week in the national colors of Belgium to show "solidarity" with Tuesday's victims
of The Perpetrators Whose Religion Shall Not Be Named. To borrow a useful phrase coined by British journalist James
Bartholomew last year, we have reached the oversaturation point of post-terrorism "virtue signaling:" Hashtags, avatars
and animated GIFs ad nauseam. These are the easy advertisements and maudlin displays of one's resolute opposition
to an unidentified something that must be stopped somehow by unspoken means.
It's
Time To Stop Pretending All Religions Are Equal. Of course, the only thing more routine than Muslims slaughtering mass
numbers of innocents is how people react to it here in America. The same old arguments, amounting to nothing. President
Barack Obama stopped flapping his limp wrists in Cuba long enough to deliver a quick and empty statement about the attacks.
He called for "unity" and spewed a few other dull platitudes that have no meaning.
The
Timing of the Brussels Attack. [Scroll down] And in the United States, the terrorists know that under the
current administration's policies, capture will result in a quick transfer to the criminal justice system, where the jihadist
will be given counsel and advised, pursuant to Miranda v. Arizona, that he need not answer questions. These
guidelines reflect the pieties of the Left: the view that, over the long haul, we enhance our security by treating enemy
operatives as criminal defendants and affording them all the majesty of Western due process. To my mind, this is a
harebrained theory for which there is, unsurprisingly, no empirical support. In reality, our enemies see our approach as
weakness, and it emboldens them, causing more attacks. Whether I am right or wrong about that, a stubborn fact remains:
By making it clear to our enemies that they will be regarded upon capture as mere criminal defendants rather than terrorist enemy
combatants, we have extended the amount of time it will take to pry intelligence about ongoing plots.
Brussels
and Willful Blindness. [Defense] Secretary Carter called the [Brussels] attacks a "tragedy." The mass murder
obviously has tragic effects for those killed and wounded, and for their families, but this is not a tragedy. It is
a war crime targeting a civilian population in the course of an ongoing war, which — notwithstanding
the reckless posturing by the commander-in-chief — is not close to "winding down," much less being over. [...] Our
enemies are at war with us. They continue to execute acts of war, not tragedies, against us. We cannot "end" the
war by withdrawing from it; we can only lose that way. We cannot prevail, or even adequately protect ourselves, without
seeing the enemy plain: radical Islam — Islamic supremacists determined to impose sharia on the world, with
jihadists as the pointy end of the spear, and ideological sympathizers as their support system.
After
Brussels, Time to Get Serious. It would be dangerously naïve to think that the Islamic State is not planning to export
its brand of terror to the United States. To that end, America cannot repeat the mistakes of Europe, beginning with irresponsible
immigration and refugee-resettlement policies. (The Somali community in Minnesota's Twin Cities, which has seen an alarming number
of young men and women depart to join al-Shabaab and the Islamic State, offers an example of what can happen if large Muslim populations
fail to assimilate.) Securing our borders is a crucial step in preventing the infiltration of terrorists into the country, and
preventing them from radicalizing and recruiting young Muslims here. Additionally, our reliance on European intelligence to vet
foreigners arriving in the United States must be reconsidered. France, Belgium, and others lack the surveillance capacities to
defend their own citizens, let alone ours.
The
ugly reality of contemporary Brussels. The fact that today's terrorist attacks in Brussels occurred just days
after the capture of Salah Abdeslam has fueled speculation that this was revenge. [...] That the attacks followed the capture
so closely may be due to fear by the terrorists that Abdeslam might provide information which would enable authorities to
thwart the next wave of attacks. For me, the main lesson of recent events in Brussels is that the terrorists there must
have considerable support, and even more sympathy, from local Muslims. Abdeslam was able not just to hide for months in
Brussels, but also apparently to plan new attacks.

Nazareth
Restaurant owner says he's debating moving back to Israel. Owner Hany Baransi said he is unsure of the fate of his restaurant after a machete
attack left several people injured at the establishment. While Nazareth Mediterranean Cuisine will open for normal business hours on Friday [2/19/2016],
Baransi tells NBC4 he is contemplating going back to Israel, or taking a break from the business. It's been a week since the machete attack was carried out
at his restaurant. Baransi said he is just now starting to process what happened, including knowing his friend Bill Foley is still in the hospital.
It only took a week for the FBI to make this announcement:
FBI
Confirms Act of Terror in Ohio: Muslim Machete Attacker on Terror Watchlist, Came to U.S. on Green Card. Authorities have confirmed that the
machete-wielding attacker, who slashed guests at an Ohio restaurant, was an immigrant and that the incident is being investigated as an terror attack. [...] The
Columbus Dispatch reported, "The owner of the Nazareth Restaurant and Deli said he believes his business was targeted because of his Israeli descent."
He and others immediately said the attack was an act of terror.
'No
rhyme or reason' for machete attack at Ohio restaurant. Information connected to the registration of the suspect's car triggered
an alert that required contacting the local terrorism task force, including the FBI, [Sgt. Rich] Weiner said.
Machete Jihad
in Ohio. Last Thursday there was yet another jihad terror attack on American soil: a Muslim named Mohammad
Barry entered the Nazareth Restaurant & Deli in Columbus, Ohio, screamed "Allahu akbar" and began slashing at patrons with a
machete. Immediately, the denial and obfuscation machine cranked into high gear. Columbus police Sgt. Rich Weiner said:
"Right now there's nothing that leads us to believe that this is anything but a random attack." The Washington Post wondered:
"Random act or Islamist terrorism?" It's actually abundantly clear that this was not a random attack, but an incidence of "Islamist
terrorism," and not just because Barry screamed "Allahu akbar" (which was not reported in mainstream media accounts about the attack).
Barry was on the FBI's radar for his jihadi views, although they dropped any investigation of him back in 2012 (why?).
Machete
attacker who stormed Israeli-owned Ohio restaurant and slashed four was investigated by FBI for radical Islamist views four
years ago. A machete-wielding man who stormed an Ohio restaurant and slashed diners at their tables had
previously been investigated by the FBI over his radical Islamist views. Mohamed Barry, 30, from the Republic of Guinea,
West Africa, was shot dead by police during the rampage at Nazareth Restaurant and Deli, a Mediterranean restaurant owned by
an Israeli man in Columbus, on Thursday [2/11/2016].
Atta boy!
Owner
Of Deli Targeted By Machete-Wielding Muslim For Israeli Flag Vows To Get Bigger Israeli Flag. On Thursday [2/11/2016], police shot a
machete-wielding west African man dead after he went on a rampage in a Christian-owned Middle Eastern deli in Columbus, Ohio. The man, Mohammad
Barry, slashed several patrons, sending four to the hospital (at least one with very serious injuries). Barry's motive is unclear but substantial
evidence points to anger about the Israeli flag prominently displayed in the window of the Nazareth Restaurant and Deli — right next to an
American flag as well as a sign bearing a greeting in Arabic. Hany Baransi, the deli owner, said Barry came by less than an hour before the
attack asking a server where Baransi is from. The server told Barry that Baransi is a native of Israel. In an interview with The Tower,
an English-language news site that focuses on the Middle East, Baransi said he has no plans to stop displaying an Israeli flag at his restaurant.
Quite to the contrary, he said, he plans to make the flag more prominent.
At
least 4 injured in machete attack at Ohio restaurant. Columbus police Sgt. Rick Weiner said, "At that point he had a machete
and another knife in his hand and he lunged across the hood at the officers." That's when police said an officer shot and killed the
man. It remained unclear what sparked the attacks. "There was no rhyme or reason as to who he was going after," said Weiner.
"There's nothing that leads us to believe that this is anything but a random attack."
Police kill man they say attacked
restaurant patrons with machete. Columbus police say a man came into the restaurant and began hacking people with a machete, sending
four of them to area hospitals and critically injuring at least one. He was shot and killed by police after they tracked him down about
5 miles from the restaurant. As of late Thursday [2/11/2016], police hadn't released the names of those injured or the name of the
man who was killed by officers. It's unclear why he did what he did.
The Editor says...
No, it isn't unclear at all. Nor was it unclear from the outset. Any time a guy named Mohamed starts flailing away at strangers with
a machete, in a locale that has a Mediterranean / Middle Eastern connotation, it is not unreasonable to surmise that he is an Islamic terrorist.
FBI
Joins Probe of Possible Terror Attack on Israeli-Owned Ohio Deli by Machete-Wielding Man. A machete-wielding man stormed a
central Ohio restaurant owned by an Israeli on Thursday evening, injuring four people before being shot dead by police. Authorities
identified the suspected attacker as Mohamed Barry, a 30-year-old of Somali background who police say may have traveled to the United Arab
Emirates in 2012. The FBI, which has joined the investigation, is probing whether the assault was an instance of homegrown extremism
motivated by the mistaken impression that the restaurant owner was Jewish, according to NBC News. Security officials are worried that
the incident is the same sort of "lone wolf terrorist attacks they're trying to stop," CBS News added.
So Where's The Reporting On This? Is it terrorism?
A man walked into a restaurant called Nazareth and asked if the owners were Jewish or Christian. He then left. He returned
a short time later with a machete and attacked the people inside, hacking up a number of them. The cops caught up with him
a few miles away and in the confrontation that followed they shot him. He's dead.
Machete-Wielding
Muslim Man Attacks Israeli-Christian's Ohio Restaurant, Several Wounded. Police have shot and killed a man who allegedly attacked patrons of a Columbus,
Ohio, restaurant Thursday night [2/11/2016], wounding several people. One of the victims is in critical condition, according to reports. The suspected
attacker is a Somali national named Mohammad Barry, CBS reports. There are also reports that Barry was on a terrorist watchlist. "Law enforcement is
concerned that this incident has the hallmarks of the type of so-called "lone wolf" terrorist attack that they have been working to stop," the report reads.
Cops kill man after machete attack at Ohio
deli. Police shot and killed a man who stormed into a central Ohio restaurant wielding a machete and randomly attacking people as they sat unsuspectingly
at their dinner tables, authorities said. Four people were injured in the brutal attack Thursday evening [2/11/2016] at Nazareth Restaurant and Deli, a
Mediterranean restaurant in Columbus. The victims were taken to an area hospital and were expected to recover. Police identified the suspected
attacker as Mohamed Barry, 30. CBS News homeland security correspondent Jeff Pegues reports that investigators were running down leads to try to determine
if the attack was somehow tied to terrorist organizations.
Sources:
FBI investigating Ohio machete attack as possible lone wolf terror act. Law enforcement sources close to the investigation into a machete attack
at an Ohio restaurant told Fox News Friday [2/12/2016] that federal authorities are investigating the incident as a potential lone wolf terror attack.
FBI investigators have not yet found any evidence to suggest the attack was directed by Islamic State or any other foreign terror organization, but federal
authorities are still running down the possibility that Mohammad Barry was inspired by terrorist propaganda. [...] "There's nothing to lead us to believe this
is anything more than a random attack," Columbus police spokesman Sgt. Rich Weiner told The Columbus Dispatch.
The Editor says...
That's right Mr. Weiner, nothing at all except that the attacker's name is Mohammad, and, as the article goes on to say,
"The entrance [to the restaurant] is adorned with a small Israeli flag and the Arabic phrase, 'Ahlan Wa Shalan' which
translates to 'You are my family, take it easy.'" It's not as if this is the first Islamic terrorist attack in the U.S., or the first one
involving a single attacker with a knife. Recall the Oklahoma Beheader from 2014. Unfortunately this sort of single-actor terrorism
is probably going to be increasingly common.
Car
of suspect in machete attack was red-flagged. After chasing a suspect in a vicious machete attack at a Northeast Side restaurant, police
realized from a computer alert that the suspect's car had been flagged by authorities. The information in that alert led them to call in federal
anti-terrorism officials. They also called the bomb squad. [...] The move to call in federal authorities was tied to "something that's in the
(computer) system that came back about the vehicle and this person," said Sgt. Rich Weiner, Columbus police spokesman, referring questions about the
nature of the computer alert to the FBI.
Networks
Skirt Mentioning Islamism in Machete Attack Coverage. ABC, CBS, NBC's Friday evening newscasts all failed to mention Islamism as a possible
motive in their coverage of the machete attack inside an Ohio restaurant on Thursday [2/11/2016]. ABC's World News Tonight didn't even use the
word "terrorism" during their report on Mohamed Barry's rampage. Alex Perez merely noted that "Barry was known to the FBI, but was not under a full-scale
investigation." CBS's Jeff Pegues underlined that "police say the assault has the hallmarks of a terrorism-inspired attack." Pegues was also the only
Big Three correspondent to report that Barry was "here in the U.S. on a green card." All three programs noted that the restaurant owner's Israeli background.
However, NBC's Pete Williams was the only one to specify that "the owner... is from Israel — a Christian Arab. Investigators are looking at whether
Barry may have mistakenly thought he was Jewish." Williams also revealed that "radical comments by him [Barry] four years ago brought a brief look from the
FBI, which then moved on."
Attempted murder of a Philadelphia cop
January 7, 2016
CAIR
Caught In Lie About Philly Shooter's Attendance At Mosque. The man who shot Philadelphia Police Officer Jesse Harnett was not shy
about why he did so, confessing immediately that he did so 'in the name of Islam'. He also told police that he had sworn allegiance to ISIS.
According to the shooter, Edward Archer, the police enforced laws which were not in the Koran, and he was bothered by that. Archer also appears
to have worn Islamic dress while shooting Officer Hartnett.
Philly
mayor claims he was 'misinterpreted' on claims terror attack had 'nothing to do with being a Muslim or following the Islamic
faith'. Philadelphia's Mayor Jim Kenney has earned himself a place in the Doofus Hall of Fame for telling a
press conference about an attempted assassination a police officer by a man who told police he acted "in the name of Islam"
because "the police defend laws that are contrary to the teachings of the Quran": [...] Now he is trying to backtrack in the
face of near universal mockery. But of course, he will not correct himself, retract his statement, or in any way
man up. No, he blames others: the idiots who "misinterpreted" him — especially Republicans
and Rush Limbaugh.
The enemy that's out of
sight. The threat of Islamic terror is constant. Violence may erupt anywhere. Unexpectedly. That's the
nature of terror. And it's happening more and more, with less and less time between events. Most recently, as AT readers
know, a Philadelphia police officer was shot by a Muslim barbarian who pledged his allegiance to ISIS. And now it appears he
may be linked to a terror cell.
Report:
Philadelphia Terrorist Only One Part of Larger Terror Cell Targeting Police. This Philadelphia report by NBC
actually aligns with what many people have been able to piece together in the San Bernardino attack in December. Individual
members activate, but they are only one part of larger Islamic Jihad terror cells.
Philly
police, FBI investigating whether alleged cop shooter was part of radical group. According to a statement from
the Philadelphia Police Department on Sunday [1/10/2016], a citizen stopped a Philadelphia officer on the street on Saturday
night [1/9/2016] to warn that the alleged gunman, Edward Archer, was part of a larger group. ABC News, which obtained the police
report from Saturday night, reported that the unnamed tipster was a woman. She told the police that the man involved in Thursday's
shooting (Archer is not mentioned by name) is not the most radical of his group of four people, and that the threat to police is not over.
Philadelphia
police probe tip that radical group wants to harm officers. The police department said Sunday evening [1/10/2016] that someone
approached an officer on the street over the weekend and alleged that the man who attacked Officer Jesse Hartnett — allegedly
30-year-old Edward Archer — "had an affiliation to a group with radical beliefs." According to CBS Philly, the person said
Archer is "part of a group that consists of three others." She added that the suspect "is not the most radical of the four" and that
"the threat to police is not over."
Two Big Victories for the Religion of Peace. [#1] Cop Ambush and Attempted Murder, Philadelphia:
Officer Josh Hartnett was sitting in his car when a guy in Muslim dress and ski mask ran across the intersection, shouting allah akbar and shooting at him, to
end up standing over his open car window with his arm and gun inside, blasting Hartnett at point-blank range. [...] One thing that not all the stories have
mentioned is that [Officer] Hartnett, a Coast Guard veteran, got off some shots of his own, three of them connecting with the Allah Hu Akbar Kid, which is how
the cops were able to bag him — they followed the blood trail and found him cowering with an empty pistol.
Jihad in Philadelphia.
When I first saw this news story this morning, I thought it must be a "Black Lives Matter" spinoff — Philadelphia,
white cop, late at night, attempted execution. But now it seems to be something else. According to the latest reports,
the suspect (who was shot by the cop and is now in custody while being medically treated), did it in the name of Islam.
The
President Who Fell From Grace. [Philadelphia's Democratic Mayor Jim] Kenney dug himself in even deeper in Obama
vaporous swill, contending that the crime had nothing to do with Moslems or Islam, "In no way, shape or form does anyone in
this room believe that Islam or the teaching of Islam has anything to do with what you have seen on that screen." Then he
turned the presser over to Police Commissioner Richard Ross who directly contradicted the mayor's fantastical account: He
said the shooter confessed that he committed the act in the name of Islam and had pledged allegiance to ISIS. At the same
time the disastrous-to-Obama Kenney presser unfolded, two Iraqi-born refugees to the U.S. were arrested on terrorism charges.
White
House 'wondering' whether shooting of Philly cop was terrorist act. President Obama's spokesman said Monday [1/11/2016] that
White House officials are "wondering" if a gunman's attack on a Philadelphia police officer was an act of terrorism, and said the White House
views the shooting as another reason for gun control. Whether the shooting of Officer Jesse Hartnett was an act of terrorism "is
something we're all wondering right now," said White House press secretary Josh Earnest, adding that White House officials have been in
contact with Philadelphia authorities.
'It
has nothing to do with being a Muslim' and other liberal fallacies. On Thursday night [1/7/2016], Philadelphia
police officer Jesse Hartnett was sitting in his patrol car when a man dressed in Muslim garb walked up to him and fired 13 shots
through the driver's side window. [...] According to the Associated Press, Capt. James Clark, head of the homicide unit, said Archer
told investigators: "I follow Allah. I pledge my allegiance to the Islamic State and that's why I did what I did."
In addition, Philadelphia Police Commissioner Richard Ross reported that the shooter told investigators he tried to kill Archer because,
"police bend laws that are contrary to the teachings of the Quran." But the story does not end there. In an example of
political correctness that helps to explain the popularity of Donald Trump and the anger of the American people, the newly elected
mayor of Philadelphia, Jim Kenney, said at a press conference: "In no way shape or form does anyone in this room believe that
Islam or the teaching of Islam has anything to do with what you've seen."
Shooter
of Philadelphia policeman described as quiet, devout Muslim. The gunman who claimed allegiance to Islamic State
after shooting a Philadelphia police officer was described by people who knew him as a devout, quiet Muslim who became more
"combative" after trips to Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
FBI
investigating alleged Pa. cop shooter's trips to Middle East. The FBI is investigating two trips alleged Philadelphia police
shooter Edward Archer made to the Middle East, a spokesman told Fox News late Friday [1/8/2016]. Special Agent Eric Rouna said federal
authorities are investigating a trip Archer made to Saudi Arabia in 2011 where the suspect spent "a couple" of weeks. Authorities are
also seeking more information about the several months Archer spent in Egypt in 2012. [...] Archer was caught in surveillance video ambushing
Officer Jesse Hartnett in his squad car, shooting him multiple times, and claimed he acted "in the name of Islam," police said at a news
conference Friday.
Philadelphia
police: Man who tried to kill officer pledged allegiance to the Islamic State. A police officer in Philadelphia
was shot multiple times late Thursday [1/7/2016] by an attacker who later said he had pledged loyalty to the Islamic State, officials
said Friday. Authorities described the attack as a brazen assassination attempt that took place on a quiet West Philadelphia
intersection and marveled that the officer was able to not only survive, but return fire and injure the shooter. The attacker,
who was firing a stolen police gun, was taken into police custody and "confessed to committing this cowardly act in the name of Islam,"
Richard Ross Jr., the city's new police commissioner, said at a news conference Friday.
Philadelphia police officer ambushed 'in the name of Islam'. Edward
Archer fired at least 11 shots at the officer, in an act done "in the name of Islam", police said. Despite being shot, Officer Jessie Hartnett left his vehicle
and was able to return fire, striking Mr Archer at least once. Mr Archer escaped on foot but was apprehended by police shortly after. "This is absolutely
one of the scariest things I've ever seen," Police Commissioner Richard Ross said.
Philadelphia
shooter 'does not appear' to be observant Muslim: CAIR. The man who shot a policeman in Philadelphia and claimed to have
pledged allegiance to Islamic State militants does not appear to be a mosque-going Muslim, a senior official at the largest U.S. Muslim
advocacy group said. "At this hour, it does not appear that he was an observant or mosque-going Muslim" in the local community, said
Jacob Bender, executive director of the Philadelphia Chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.
Philly
Mayor: Islamic State Cop Shooter 'Does Not Represent' Islam. The Muslim man who said Islam motivated him to shoot a police officer
does not represent the teachings of Islam, Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney stated in a press conference on Friday afternoon [1/8/2016], following an
attempted execution by a man who had reportedly pledged to the Islamic State. A 33-year-old Philadelphia policeman, Jesse Hartnett, was
ambushed late Thursday when Edward Archer, a Muslim man, reportedly tried to execute him while he was sitting in his police vehicle.
Source: Philly gunman says he
shot cop in name of Islam. A man using a gun stolen from police said he was acting in the name of Islam when he ambushed an officer sitting
in his marked cruiser at an intersection, firing more than a dozen shots at point-blank range, authorities said Friday [1/8/2016]. Both the officer
and suspect were wounded during the barrage of gunfire. The suspect, 30-year-old Edward Archer, also pledged allegiance to the Islamic State of
Iraq and Syria when he was questioned after his arrest in the shooting late Thursday, police said.
Philadelphia
Mayor Jim Kenney declares the sky is green. Okay, not quite. But Philadelphia's new mayor, Jim Kenney, might
as well have told yesterday's press conference on yesterday's attempted assassination of Officer Jesse Hartnett that the sky
is green when he claimed that Islam had nothing to do with the assassination attempt. Americans believe that politicians
often lie, but it is very rare for one to blatantly lie following presentation of the truth by a senior law enforcement official,
only to be followed by yet another law enforcement official who reiterates the truth that contradicts the politician's lie. [...]
Mayor Kenney is reported to be a Catholic, so how he has the theological authority to make such a statement is unclear.
Moody Air Force Base
December 4, 2015
This incident has not developed into a terrorist attack YET, but there is far more to this situation than the government is letting on.

Afghan trainees graduate at Moody Air Force Base; 2 students
still missing . The whereabouts of the two Afghan trainees remain unknown after they were last seen on Dec. 4. The Department of Homeland Security
said it is following a variety of electronic and physical leads. Mirwais Kohistani and Shirzad Rohullah were reported missing on Dec. 8 when they didn't report
for duty.
If they're harmless, then why are they on the run?
Afghan
airmen who vanished from Georgia Air Force base are 'nice guys' who pose no threat: coworkers, officials. Mirwais Kohistani and
Shirzad Ruhullah were reported missing after they didn't show up to Monday training exercises at Moody Air Force base. The pair of
Afghan Air Force airmen have been training at the Valdosta-area base since February. U.S. Air Force spokesman Ed Gulick said he does not
believe the Afghan nationals, who were screened by the Department of State before their arrival, pose a threat to any Americans. In fact,
the missing airmen may be the ones at risk, he said.
Two
Afghan Air Force Students Reported Missing from Moody AFB. The search continues for 2 Afghan Air Force students
who were reported missing from Moody Air Force Base on Tuesday after they did not report for duty on Monday [12/7/2015].
We still do not know the names of the men or have a description of them. Moody Air Force Base officials say they will not
release that information. Moody officials did tell Eyewitness News that the two are allowed to leave the base just like
other airmen and do not require an escort.
2
Afghan trainees reported missing from Moody Air Force Base. Two Afghan national air force students assigned to
Moody Air Force Base near Valdosta have been reported missing. The two men, whose names were not released, are both
assigned to the 81st Fighter Squadron, but did not show up for work Monday [12/7/2015], Moody said in an emailed statement.
The two arrived at Moody in February and were screened before their arrival on U.S. soil, more than a year ago, according to officials.
"The students have trained alongside American counterparts for the entirety of 2015 and do not pose any apparent threat," Moody said.
Photos
of missing Afghans withheld. Moody Air Force Base officials are not releasing the names or photographs of two
missing Afghan trainees. Capt. Korey Fratini said Wednesday [12/10/2015] the decision to not release the names is a U.S. Air Force
decision and not one that has been made by the base commander. "It is a matter of policy," Fratini told The Valdosta Daily Times.
Missing
Afghan Military Trainees Still on Loose — Names and Passport Photo's Released. The police and FBI
would NOT be releasing their identities if this was NOT a security threat. This release increases the likelihood there is
something very sketchy afoot.
New
details in search for Afghan airmen missing from Moody AFB. New details emerged Thursday [12/10/2015] in the
intense search for two Afghan student airmen missing from Moody Air Force Base, about 230 miles south of Atlanta, near
Valdosta. Authorities say Mirwais Kohistani and Shirzad Rohullah failed to show up for their training at the base on
Monday. "They've just gone missing. We're not sure why," said Ed Gulick, the spokesman for the Air Force.
It's a question he wants answered. Gulick told 11Alive's Dontaye Carter by phone they're tracing every step the two men
took the last five days.
The
two Afghan Air Force trainees now being hunted by Homeland Security after they disappeared from U.S. military base in
Georgia. Air Force officials say the Department of Homeland Security has taken the lead role in the search for
two Afghan men who disappeared while training with the U.S. military at a base in south Georgia. The men — who were part
of a group of 23 from Afghanistan who have been at the base since February — have now been identified as Mirwais Kohistani
and Shirzad Rohullah. Their names and passports were released Thursday as part of a federal investigation to track down
the pair, after they failed to show up for training on Monday.
Afghan
Men Training at Georgia Air Force Base Reported Missing. Two men from Afghanistan who are undergoing training
at an Air Force base in Georgia have been reported missing, officials said Tuesday [12/8/2015]. Officials at Moody Air
Force Base, near Valdosta, said in a statement the two students didn't report Monday to "their regular maintenance training"
with the 81st Fighter Squadron. The two men have been training at the base since February and "were screened prior to
their arrival in the United States more than a year ago," according to the statement. "There's zero evidence that these
guys are terrorists," said Brian Childress, police chief in Valdosta, which is near Moody Air Force Base.
The Editor says...
Right. There's zero evidence that they are terrorists — except that they're Muslims, and AWOL and apparently
on the run. But there was no such evidence against the Boston Bombers either,
until suddenly they were terrorists!
Update:
One of two missing Afghan airmen
located. One of two Afghan airmen who disappeared from Moody Air Force base in south Georgia has been located six weeks after he
vanished. Channel 2 investigative reporter Aaron Diamant confirmed through federal sources that the Department of Homeland Security has
located one of the men.

Mali
November 20, 2015
Miles blames San
Bernardino terror attack on stress. And capitalism. And global warming. My leftwing brother Miles
thinks he knows what triggered the massacre in San Bernardino, California yesterday. Both the killers were Muslim, but
Miles is certain the couple were driven to kill because having newborn baby put them under so much stress.
Radical
Islam in Mali and Greater Africa: The Threats Facing the West Today. The Malian local Islamic terrorist group
Al Mourabitoun (The Sentinels in Arabic, with ties to al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, composed mostly of Tuaregs and Arabs
from the northern Mali regions, including Algerians, Tunisians, and other nationalities) reportedly claimed responsibility
for the hotel attack in Bamako. The hotel is a favorite lodging place of Westerners in a city of 2 million
people. The attackers reportedly took over 170 hostages, killing about two dozen innocents, before local Malian forces,
with varying degrees of United States and French support, subdued them. The penultimate issue facing Western governments
like the United States, and those like Great Britain and France who once had African colonies, is how deeply they can afford
to get involved in African affairs and in chasing terrorists like the group responsible for the attack in Mali.
Terror in Mali and the Real
Meaning of 'Allahu Akbar'. As another Islamic terrorist attack occurred in Mali's capital of Bamako, where Muslim gunmen attacked a
luxury hotel full of foreigners, killing innocents and taking 170 people hostage, reports confirm that the terrorists demanded that hostages
recite the Shahada (the Muslim declaration of faith) and that those who were able to do so were allowed to leave the hotel.
Recite
from the Koran or die. Hillary Clinton and Team Obama like to pretend that the terrorism perpetrated throughout
the world by Muslims has nothing to do with Islam. Maybe they should tell this to the families of those killed today at the
Radisson Blu hotel in Bamako, Mali. According to reports, the terrorists took a large number of hostages, but then released
those (reportedly around 20 in number) who could recite a verse from the Koran. That's what I call a religious test.
Jihadis
storm hotel with guns and grenades taking 170 hostage in ex-French colony Mali. The siege is taking place at a
Radison Blu hotel, popular with Air France crew, in the Malian capital of Bamako. Militants, who have been heard speaking
in English, fired shots in the corridors while shouting "God is great" in Arabic.
Gunmen Take 170 Hostages In Mali Hotel
Attack. Around 10 men armed with guns and grenades stormed the Radisson Blu hotel in the capital Bamako at around 7am local
time. They were shouting and screaming "Allahu Akbar", which means "God Is great" in Arabic.
Firsthand Accounts of Law Enforcement
During Bataclan Terror Attacks. Don't know about you, but I'm getting a bit tired of the mass-murders, suicide bombings,
crucifixions, beheadings, civil wars, sex slaves, and mass migrations that are completely random and wholly unrelated to a certain military
doctrine that purports to be a religion.
Hotel
Horror: Radical Islamists Storm Hotel Shouting "Allahu Akbar" — Take 170 Hostages. The Radisson Blu
Hotel in Mali's capital was just stormed by at least 10 radical Islamists shouting "Allahu Akbar!" Gunmen drove vehicles onto
the premises with diplomatic plates and they spoke English. The Macina Liberation Front, a wing of Boko Haram is taking
credit for the attack. They took 170 hostages and at least 3 are dead now.
Mali:
Muslims screaming "Allahu akbar" take hostages, free those who can recite Qur'an. We have seen this before on several
occasions in Kenya. In September 2013 at Nairobi's Westgate Mall, Muslims murdered people who couldn't answer questions about
Islam. In June 2014, Muslims murdered people who could not pass an Islam quiz. In November 2014, Muslims murdered 28
non-Muslims who couldn't recite Qur'an verses. In April 2015, Muslims screaming "Allahu akbar" stormed Garissa University
College, and only shot those who couldn't recite Qur'an. Now we see it in Mali. And this is coming to the U.S.
Paris
November 13, 2015
Update:
The
band 'Sting' sings "Inshallah" ('Allah wills it' in Arabic) at the re-opening of the Bataclan theater in Paris.
One year after the November 2015 massacre in Paris where Islamic State terrorists butchered, tortured, and/or slaughtered 130
innocent people (89 dead), the Bataclan Theatre reopened with a concert featuring the band "Sting" where they paid tribute
to the Muslim terrorists in a song called "Inshallah."
Paris bomber's phone seized
months before attacks, found 2yrs later under police papers — report. Paris suicide bomber Brahim
Abdeslam's mobile phone was reportedly found underneath a pile of paperwork at a Belgian police station months after going
missing, but authorities claim its absence has not hindered their investigation. The phone was seized as part of a drug
investigation in February of 2015, months before the Paris attacks that left 138 people dead and 368 others injured
on November 13, 2015, but it should have been handed over to Belgium's anti-terrorist police once Abdeslam's links to
extremism were revealed, La Derrière Heure newspaper reported.
French
Police Hung Up on Paris Theatre Shooting Victim. News reports have surfaced showing the French government
covered up the torture and rape that French citizens suffered at the hands of Islamic terrorists. What hasn't been
reported is that the police told one of the victims, who called begging for help, to stop wasting their time.
Paris
Terror Files Reveal Missed Opportunities to Stop Attacks. NBC News has obtained exclusive access to a trove of
thousands of internal French and Belgian documents that constitute the Paris case file, including many pages describing
connections to the 2009 Egypt bomb plot. They show that, despite significant evidence, a joint French and Belgian task
force appears to have spun its wheels from 2009 to 2012 in a plodding and ultimately feckless attempt to penetrate what they
believed to be a terror cell in France and Belgium.
Horrifying
details of the Bataclan Theatre massacre revealed. The Islamic State terrorists who attacked the Bataclan theater in Paris
last November not only killed scores of innocents — they also gouged out the eyes and sliced up the genitals of some of
the victims, according to testimony in a disturbing French report. Some victims' bodies from the second floor of the theater had
been beheaded, eviscerated and otherwise mutilated, according to two secondhand accounts reported to a parliamentary commission set up
to investigate the attack. The investigation's chair, conservative lawmaker Georges Fenech, complained to the commission that details
of the mutilations have been kept from families and the press, according to an online transcript.
Police
Weep As They Learn What French Hostages Were Forced To Do. When the terrorist attack went down at the Bataclan
in France, I wrote of hostages being disemboweled. Those reports were evidently true and much, much worse took place at
the time. It was so bad that the police ran out and vomited. [Gruesome details omitted.] ISIS needs to be wiped
from the face of the earth and fast. Wherever they are found, they need to be eliminated with prejudice. No mercy, no
quarter. Take them out. They are a scourge and a threat to all of mankind's very existence.
True
mastermind of Paris terror attacks 'still at large'. The man initially believed to have masterminded the Paris
attacks was only a "coordinator" and French intelligence have now discovered the true identity of the terrorist leader who
planned the massacre, it emerged on Thursday [7/7/2016]. Abdelhamid Abaaoud, a Belgian-Moroccan killed by police five
days after the November 13 atrocities, was only a go-between, not a senior figure, the head of France's external intelligence
agency told a parliamentary inquiry. "We know the mastermind but I will remain discreet on this point," Bernard Bajolet
testified to a committee of MPs.
Law
Enforcement Sources: Gun Used in Paris Terrorist Attacks Came from Phoenix. One of the guns used in the
November 13, 2015 Paris terrorist attacks came from Phoenix, Arizona where the Obama administration allowed criminals to buy
thousands of weapons illegally in a deadly and futile "gun-walking" operation known as "Fast and Furious." A Report of
Investigation (ROI) filed by a case agent in the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives (ATF) tracked the gun
used in the Paris attacks to a Phoenix gun owner who sold it illegally, "off book," Judicial Watch's law enforcement sources
confirm. Federal agents tracing the firearm also found the Phoenix gun owner to be in possession of an unregistered
fully automatic weapon, according to law enforcement officials with firsthand knowledge of the investigation.
'Fast
& Furious' link: Gun used in Paris terror attack may blow up Obama's 'gun control' narrative. A gun used
in the November Paris terrorist attack has reportedly been traced back to Phoenix where the Obama administration's
gun-running experiment Fast and Furious allowed criminals to buy thousands of weapons illegally. The Bureau of Alcohol,
Tobacco Firearms and Explosives tracked one of the guns used in the November 13, 2015 attacks to a Phoenix gun owner who
sold it illegally, according to Judicial Watch. The gun owner also had an unregistered fully automatic weapon, according
to law enforcement officials with firsthand knowledge of the investigation. Tracking the weapon following a paper trail,
it was found that the Phoenix gun owner had at least two federal firearms violations, for selling one weapon illegally and for
possessing an unregistered automatic, according to Judicial Watch. But no action was taken against the gun owner whose
identity was "kept quiet," law enforcement sources said.

France to shut down up to 160 mosques.
In the wake of the November 13 Paris terrorist attacks that claimed more than 130 lives, the French government is ordering up
to 160 mosques to be shut down in the coming months. Raids have revealed large stashes of weapons and ammunition.
The government's emergency powers grant it the right to take this extraordinary measure, and mosques that are unlicensed or
have a history of "preaching hatred" are being singled out. One of France's chief imams, Hassan El Alaoui, said last
Wednesday, "According to official figures and our discussions with the interior ministry, between 100 and 160 more mosques
will be closed because they are run illegally without proper licenses, they preach hatred, or use takfiri speech.
Takfiri speech involves sectarian slurs leveled by one Muslim against fellow Muslims.
France Raids Mosques,
Finds Weapons-Truth! Reports that mosques in France have been raided and shut down in the wake of terrorist
attacks in Paris on November 13th are true. Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said on December 2nd that French
officials had shut down three mosques and had detained 22 people who were believed to have participated in "Islamist
radicalization." In one of the mosques, located about 22 miles east of Paris, authorities seized a 9mm revolver,
a hard drive and documents, the Wall Street Journal reports.
When
the First Amendment and terror collide. Nohemi Gonzalez, an ambitious 23-year-old student of fashion and design
at California State University, Long Beach, was eating at a restaurant on the Rue de Charrone during her fall semester in
Paris when gunmen attacked and murdered her. She was the only known American among the 129 people who were killed
in the Nov. 13, 2015, Paris terror attacks. Last week Nohemi's father, Reynaldo Gonzalez, filed a federal lawsuit
in U.S. District Court in the Northern District of California against Twitter, Facebook and Google, alleging that they are
liable for his daughter's death because they "knowingly permitted the terrorist group ISIS to use their social networks as a
tool for spreading extremist propaganda." The suit calls this "material support" for terrorism, saying that without
social media, the growth of ISIS "would not have been possible."
Paris
victim's father sues Twitter, Facebook, Google over ISIS. The father of a young woman killed in the Paris
attacks last November is suing Google, Facebook and Twitter, claiming that the companies provided "material support" to
extremists in violation of the law. Nohemi Gonzalez, 23, of El Monte, California, was the only American killed in the
November 2015 shootings and suicide bombings that left 130 people dead, CBS Los Angeles reported. Her father, Reynaldo
Gonzalez, filed the suit on Tuesday [6/14/2016] in the U.S. District Court in the Northern District of California. The
suit claims the companies "knowingly permitted" the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) to recruit members, raise money
and spread "extremist propaganda" via their social media services.
Muslim in Brussels
Counter-Terror Shoot Out was a Migrant, Islamic State Flag, Prayer Books Found. The Wall Street Journal is
reporting: Authorities here found an Islamic State flag inside the apartment where an hours long battle between gunmen and
police investigating the November Paris attacks left one suspect dead, prosecutors said on Wednesday [3/16/2016]. [...] Belgian
authorities said more than 100 house searches have been conducted since the terror attacks in Paris. Belgian authorities
have detained and questioned 58 people as part of the direct investigation of the Paris attack. Another 23 people
were questioned in related investigations.
French Minister Christiane Taubira resigns amid terror row. French
Justice Minister Christiane Taubira has stepped down from her job, shortly before plans to strip people convicted of terrorism of their citizenship go before
parliament. Ms Taubira was known to disagree with the controversial proposals. The citizenship plans were put forward after the 13 November
Paris attacks in which 130 people were murdered.
Germany
manhunt for 12 people who entered country on same stolen passports as Paris attackers. A manhunt has been
launched in Germany for 12 people who used fake Syrian passports to enter the country and then disappeared, according to a
report in a German tabloid. The documentation is believed to have been taken by ISIS when they captured the Syrian city of
Raqqa in 2013 and supplied to migrants by the same source as those used by two of the Paris attackers, the Bild newspaper claimed.
The Real Lesson of the Paris
Attacks. [Scroll down] The latest attacks in Paris were, indeed, targeted at absolutely everybody.
In that, there should be a lesson of a kind. The lesson should remind us that in a free society, no one can wholly
dodge the bullets of these particular fanatics. In the conflict that faces us now, there is no opt-out if you happen to
be "lucky" enough not to be Jewish. There is no opt-out if you happen to think that people should not draw or publish
opinions that are anything other than 100% agreeable to 100% of the people, 100% of the time. Because one day, you will
be targeted for being at a restaurant or a concert, or for having the "decadent" temerity to attend a football match.
When the Third World Attacks. Give
me a break, New York Times. The Paris terrorists were 100 percent Middle Eastern, although most were born in Muslim ghettos in Europe.
After 50 years of the most backward, dysfunctional cultures pouring into the civilized world, the media are forced to blatantly lie to us
whenever immigrants attack: This has nothing to do with refugees! Ismail Omar Mostefai is "a Frenchman." Ismail is
"French" in the same way that Caitlin Jenner is a "woman."
Non sequitur of the year:
Negotiators
vow to honour Paris victims with climate deal. Climate negotiators in Paris vowed Sunday [11/29/2015] to craft
an historic pact to avert catastrophic global warming in honour of the victims of this month's horrific attacks in the French capital.
Third
Paris stadium jihad suicide bomber identified as "refugee" who came via Greece. The solution offered by the
media and political elites: bring in more Muslim refugees. What could possibly go wrong?
Self-Defenseless. What might have
happened if a few of the 1,500 concert attendees in Paris' Bataclan theater had guns? The terrorists had time to kill, reload
and kill again. The police unit didn't come for more than a half hour. If a few people in the theater were armed, might
they have killed the killers?
Islam: 'The Strongest Retrograde
Force in the World'. In January 2014, [Barack H. Obama] made the now-infamous remark that he regarded ISIS as merely a "jay-vee" threat.
The months that followed saw that group slaughter hundreds, maybe thousands, in the most public and grotesque manner. Allied groups in Africa raided schools
and villages, shooting, hacking, and raping their way through the populace. On the morning of November 13 (the anniversary, incidentally, of end of the
Ottoman Caliphate), President Obama told George Stephanopoulos on Good Morning America that his administration had "contained" ISIS. That very evening,
less than a year after the massacre by ISIS affiliates at the offices of the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, a series of carefully coordinated,
cold-blooded attacks by ISIS erupted across Paris, leaving some 130 dead and more than 250 wounded. One of the attacks, at the Stade de France,
came within yards of François Hollande, the French president, who was there for a football match. Some containment.
Three Liberties Being Threatened
After the Paris Attacks. In the wake of the horrific terrorist attacks in Paris recently, statists and power-hungry bureaucrats have
seized the opportunity to try and expand governmental power. In the spirit of never letting a crisis go to waste, they hope to capitalize on
fear to place new restrictions on individual liberties. Here are three ways in which the forces of ever bigger government are seeking to
exploit the Paris attacks to erode personal freedoms.
Elites Versus the Masterminds.
The French have voted to extend the State of Emergency for three more months in reaction to an attack on Paris that claimed 129 lives.
"The lower house of parliament voted overwhelmingly to extend the measures until the end of February and to increase certain powers, including
immediately placing people under house arrest if they are considered a risk." These include the power to detain preemptively detain
individuals, carry out warrantless searches, seize data and block websites. The Eurocrats have declared open season on anything which
obfuscates government supervision over individual activity. Reuters reports that "European Union countries plan a crackdown on virtual
currencies and anonymous payments made online and via pre-paid cards in a bid to tackle terrorism financing after the Paris attacks."
The Editor says...
As I've said before, I'd much rather take my chances with the Muslim terrorists than with Big Brother. The Muslims might be able
to kill a hundred people at a time, but Big Brother can put all of us under tyranny overnight, while pretending it's for our safety.
A totalitarian socialist government that has tasted this level of power will probably be reluctant to give it up.
Democrats prefer fantasy to reality. In Paris, the day
before the fantasy land debate, eight Islamic terrorists affiliated with ISIS targeted innocent people, killing 129 and wounding 352. It
was a horrific attack on not just the country of France, but on all of Western civilization. It was only the latest in a long string of
attacks that have been going on for decades, but started to intensify in the aftermath of the Iranian revolution of 1979.
How Stupid Are We? Several days ago,
Paris was struck again by Islamic terrorism. Innocents enjoying a night on the town were brutally gunned down or blown apart by a malicious
blood thirsty cult. They kill for sport. As I write this, the death toll exceeds 130 and many more severely injured. But
whomever [sic] it was, one fact is not debatable. They were Islamic terrorists. They are not a nation armed with tanks and planes
nor are they a "jayvee" team; as President Obama infamously suggested. They are pursuing a modern day Caliphate of control and power
in the Middle East and their antlers of death and destruction have spread to the Western Hemisphere.
Salvaging
the Tatters of the Obama Doctrine. Rarely has such a group been so rhetorically attacked but left so physically
untouched as ISIS. [...] It is now believed the Paris attack was launched from a suburb of Brussels called Molenbeek, to
which nearly every terrorist attack in Europe has been linked, and over which the Belgian interior minister claims no
control. At least some of the attackers were furnished from the ranks of refugees streaming in from Syria. The
planning itself may have used the chat feature of Playstation 4, which the French sleuths had not thought to tap.
Obama:
Don't Equate Paris Attacks To Islam. While speaking at the G20 Summit on Monday, President Obama said that it's
"counterproductive" to "equate the terrible actions that took place in Paris with the views of Islam."
UK
Home Secretary: Paris Attacks 'Have Nothing To Do With Islam'. The Home Secretary Theresa May has said the attacks
in Paris, "have nothing to do with Islam". She said Islam was peaceful, whilst explaining that "appropriate security measures"
will need to be taken at the England France football match tomorrow [11/17/2015].
Paris
attacks highlight France's gun control problems. The arsenal of weapons deployed by the eight attackers who
terrorised Paris on Friday night underlined France's gun control problems and raised the spectre of further attacks. The
country has extremely strict weapons laws, but Europe's open borders and growing trade in illegal weapons means assault rifles
are relatively easy to come by on the black market. They feature regularly in gang warfare and were used by both
the Charlie Hebdo killers and an extremist who targeted a Jewish school and paratroopers in 2012 shootings around Toulouse in
the south of the country.
Dear
Paris, You've got a friend in the USA — but not much more. After Islamic State warriors slaughtered
more than 120 innocents in France, an urgent question arises for us Americans. Will we send James Taylor to Paris to serenade
the French? You may recall that this was our response in January after Islamic radicals slaughtered 17 people at the
Paris offices of Charlie Hebdo, a French satire magazine, and at a kosher market there.
How that 'jayvee team' metastasized into the
world's most destructive terror force. Attacks in Paris on Nov. 13 claimed by Islamic State left at least 129 people
dead and scores more wounded in the worst terrorist assault in Europe for a decade. [This article comprises] a timeline of seminal events
in the militant group's history and leading up to the tragedy that French President Francois Hollande has called an "act of war."
Jihadists
Crippling the West from Within. More than 14 years ago, they succeeded in killing nearly 3,000 Americans in a
plot carried out right under our noses. In those intervening years, billions of dollars were spent on creating and connecting
massive databases between countries to share intelligence, new counterterrorism intelligence units were formed, tens of thousands
of jihadists around the world were placed under surveillance, entire militaries were transformed to fight the new type of asymmetrical
war, and government leaders vowed to wipe out the nest of terrorist vipers wherever they were. Yet, the jihadists still
succeeded in carrying out the single largest attack in Europe since World War II, slaughtering more than 120 innocent men, women
and children. If there is any lesson that can be drawn, it is that the jihadists are now coming for us.
Report:
Paris Attack 'Mastermind' Also Behind Train Attack Thwarted By Hero Marines. French authorities have confirmed
that the "mastermind" behind Friday night's deadly attacks in Paris was also behind the thwarted train attack in August,
where off duty U.S. marines apprehended a jihadist gunman. Jihadist Abdelhamid Abaaoud has previously been described as
"one of the most active Isis executioners" in Syria and is known to have fought with Islamic State (ISIS) in the region. He
appeared in an online video driving a car loaded with mutilated bodies.
Paris
attacks terrorist suspect Ahmed Almuhamed 'was rescued near Greece after his refugee boat sunk'. The
25-year-old is said to have been rescued by Greek authorities from a wrecked migrant boat while posing as a refugee to
smuggle himself to Paris.
Four
important lessons world must learn from French tragedy. First, the Paris attacks were not "senseless violence"
as some media commentators observed as the news coverage unfolded. Nor were they "an attack on all of humanity and the
universal values that we share," as President Obama said late Friday evening [11/13/2015]. This coordinated, well-planned
and, sadly, well-executed series of assaults on innocent civilians was deliberate, ideologically motivated, and carefully
targeted. These Islamic radicals know who their enemies are, and have for decades. It is we —
or at least some of our leaders — who have forgotten who is under attack.
Scarier
Than The Paris Attacks Is The Democrats' Passivity. 'If left unchecked, these terrorists could pose a growing
threat beyond" the Mideast, "including to the United States," Obama said of the Islamic State 14 months ago. "Could pose,"
not "do pose." The president now contends that we have not left ISIS unchecked in the months since. And yet somehow the
terror organization he dismissed as a JV team managed a sophisticated, coordinated spree of attacks in the heart of Paris, leaving
at least 129 dead.
Palestinian
Authority Official Newspaper Blames Israel for Attacks in Paris. An opinion piece from Sunday's [11/15/2015]
edition of al-Hayat al-Jadida, the Palestinian Authority's official daily newspaper, argued that the Israeli
intelligence agency Mossad was responsible for the terror attacks that occurred in Paris on Friday night, which killed at
least 129 people and wounded hundreds more, according to an article in the Times of Israel.
Donald
Trump to packed house in Knoxville: 'Guns could have prevented Paris attacks'. Trump's early comments were
against President Obama's release of five prisoners from Guantanamo Bay last week and that Friday's attacks in Paris could
have been prevented if citizens had guns. "If you had 25 people in there that had guns, it would have been a totally
different story. It would have been the Shootout at the OK Corral, and there would have been death, but it could have been
their death," Trump said.
Not difficult:
Francois
Hollande is making Obama look like a fool. No sooner had ISIS claimed responsibility for the butchery than
[President François] Hollande got in front of TV cameras and told the traumatized public that the savagery was an "act
of war." He vowed to pound ISIS into submission. Compare that to the American president's initial reaction.
President Obama, who once ridiculed ISIS (or "ISIL," as he calls it) by comparing it to a junior varsity squad, was loath to
point fingers. "I don't want to speculate at this point in terms of who was responsible for this," he said.
On the other hand...
France's
President Lied, Frenchmen Died. Last month, French President Francois Hollande ridiculed the idea that the
massive numbers of Muslim migrants entering his country were any kind of threat. "Those who argue that we are being
invaded are manipulators and falsifiers, who do this only for political reasons, to scare," the left-wing politician huffed.
And then the pudgy little Socialist had to be rapidly evacuated from France's national soccer stadium after one of those refugees
blew himself up trying to reach Monsieur le Président, and Merkel's Foreign Minister, Frank-Walter Steinmeier. Minister
Steinmeier had urged rejecting "barriers, fences" when it came to the Muslim migrants, but it was a barrier and the security in
front of it that kept one of his beloved refugees from reaching him.
Mother
of Paris suicide bomber says her son did not mean to kill anyone... and claims he may have blown himself up because of
STRESS. The mother of a Paris suicide bomber says her son 'did not mean to kill anyone' — and claims he may
have blown himself up because of stress, while a third son said his family were 'thinking of the victims'. Ibrahim
Abdeslam, 31, launched a solo attack outside the cafe Comptoir Voltaire, close to the scene of the Bataclan concert hall
massacre on Friday night.
Global
Warming Came To Paris, Again. According to President Obama, the recently elected leftist Canadian Prime
Minister, and various euro-socialist left-wing open-border types, the most significant danger to the citizen sheep amid our
collective nations is "global warming". Well, they say it, so it must be true. We can only reasonably reconcile
reality and political pontification by accepting the term "global warming" now means "Islamic Jihadists carrying AK-47
rifles and explosive uniforms". And, as such — they're right. That type of global warming is advancing
everywhere.
Donald
Trump says tough gun control laws in Paris contributed to tragedy. Donald Trump says the tough gun control laws
in Paris contributed to the high death toll during a series of terrorist attacks on Friday. The attacks, he added, also
reveal the danger in allowing Syrian refugees into the country. "You can say what you want, but if they had guns —
if our people had guns, if they were allowed to carry — it would have been a much, much different situation," Trump
said to cheers during a political rally at an arena in southeast Texas on Saturday afternoon [11/14/2015].
Obama: Paris terror
rampage a 'setback'. Three days after teams of Islamic State terrorists brazenly carried out raids across Paris
that left 129 people dead, President Obama labeled the slaughter a "setback" in responding to questions about his policies.
"There will be setbacks and there will be successes. The terrible events in Paris were obviously a terrible and sickening
setback," Obama said Monday [11/16/2015].
The Editor says...
Obama is reluctant or afraid to criticize radical Islam or even call it by name. We can easily surmise that Obama
is either a coward or a Muslim — or both.
Why Only Fools Listen to Obama. If only France had rigid gun
control, yesterday's bloodbath in Paris could have been avoided. Oh wait, France is run by moonbats and does have rigid gun
control. That's why no one was in a position to fight back against the Muslims.
Islamic
State 'not contained' as Paris attacks show. Even as Islamic State terrorists carrying Syrian and Egyptian
passports were moving into position last Friday morning to launch the most terrifying attack on Paris since World War II,
President Obama went before the cameras on ABC's "Good Morning America" to assure George Stephanopoulos and his audience that
we've "contained" ISIS. He dismissed ISIS, another name for the Islamic State group, as he has in the past as something we
shouldn't be overly concerned about. "From the start," he assured those watching, "our goal has been to contain them, and we
have contained them."
Why
did Obama declare ISIS 'contained' the day before Paris attack? On Thursday, President Barack Obama declared in
an interview that ISIS had been "contained," asserting that the terror cell had been stalled in Iraq and Syria. The next
day, ISIS claimed responsibility for one of the worst terror attacks in European history, shattering what had been a growing
sense of momentum in the global fight against extremists and driving home the frightening ability of ISIS to inspire and
possibly coordinate attacks outside their power base in Iraq and in Syria.
Massive
Muslim Terror Attack in Paris. The death toll from the Bataclan theater has been raised to 120, bringing the
total dead to 160 citywide. French authorities believe that all of the terrorists involved in the attacks themselves have
been subdued with Paris Public Prosecutor, Francois Molins has said on French television that at least 5 terrorists have been
"neutralized." Two of the terrorists appear to have blown themselves up during the police raid on the Bataclan rather than
face capture or death at the hands of the authorities.
The
names of the people responsible for the massacres in France. The names of the people responsible for the
massacres in France are as follows: [#1] François Hollande, president of France. [#2] Angela Merkel,
prime minister of Germany. [#3] David Cameron, prime minister of the U.K. [#5] Stefan Lofven, prime minister
of Sweden. ...as well as most of the other prime ministers and European heads of state. Oh, and we must include the pope,
too, who insistently called on Europe to take in more Muslim refugees. All these people — and their predecessors in
office — have the blood of the dead French citizens, and the other victims of radical Islam, on their hands. They
willingly and knowingly have imported millions of Muslims from barbaric Middle Eastern cultures. They knew that many were
military-age young men. They knew that a substantial minority of them were supporters of radical Islam. And then, when
the unthinkable occurs, they act surprised and outraged and vow to secure their borders.
Idiot
'shocked' by Paris attacks. [I]sn't it odd that Angela Merkel, leader of Germany's Christian Democratic Party,
has taken her humanitarian stand specifically in favor of the only refugee population one could find that is associated by
religious affiliation and political history with profound Jew-hatred and Holocaust trivialization? It would be amusing, were
it not so sad, to remember how pleased North American conservatives used to be with the "pro-business" Merkel. An object
lesson in why conservatives must stop confusing pro-business with pro-freedom — two very different positions, in fact.
If there is still a significant pro-freedom faction in Europe at all, one hopes its members are well beyond being "shocked" that
Muslims could commit violence.
ISIS Claims Deadly Paris Attacks,
'First of the Storm'. The terror group ISIS today released a statement claiming responsibility for the horrific, apparently
coordinated attacks in Paris Friday that killed more than 100 people. Calling the attack "blessed," an audio statement released
online in French and Arabic said that ISIS "soldiers" targeted the "capital of prostitution and obscenity, the carrier of the banner of the
Cross in Europe." The statement claimed the attack was the "first of the storm and a warning to those who wish to learn."
Two
men linked to Paris attacks registered as migrants in Greece: police. Greek police on Saturday [11/14/2015] said at
least one man with a possible connection to the Paris attacks had registered as a refugee with Greek authorities earlier this year.
French authorities had asked their Greek counterparts to check the fingerprints of one man who died in the attacks, with a Syrian
passport found next to him, in addition to the fingerprints of another man.
The
Migrant Jihad Has Begun in Paris. French and European authorities can't say they weren't warned. Last February,
the Islamic State boasted it would soon flood Europe with as many as 500,000 refugees. And the Lebanese Education Minister
recently said that there were 20,000 jihadis among the refugees in camps in his country. Meanwhile, 80% of migrants who have
recently come to Europe claiming to be fleeing the war in Syria aren't really from Syria at all. So why are they claiming
to be Syrian and streaming into Europe? An Islamic State operative gave the answer when he boasted in September, shortly
after the migrant influx began, that among the flood of refugees, 4,000 Islamic State jihadis had already entered Europe.
Media
Rushes to Shift Focus of Paris Attacks Away from Jihadist Terror. Before the dust had settled and even the extent of the
damage and number of dead had been tallied from a string of terror attacks in Paris, France, liberals in the old media establishment
were already writing pieces blaming conservatives, bemoaning that the attacks had taken the focus off pet liberal issues like Mizzou
and global warming and wringing their hands over the safety of Muslims. Salon was early out of the gate with a story twisting
the terror attacks into a weapon to use against conservatives.
University of California Merced
November 4, 2015
Overview:
California:
ISIS Jihadi Stabs Four in University Classroom, University Blames Toxic Masculinity. The FBI last Wednesday
[11/25/2020] released new details about the case of Faisal Mohammad, who in November 2015, while he was a freshman at the
University of California, Merced, entered a classroom and stabbed four people. It was already known back at the time of
the attack that young Mohammad was a jihadi: The College Fix reported that he "was found to have an image of the ISIS
flag, a handwritten manifesto with instructions on how to behead someone, and reminders to pray to Allah." The new
information that has just been released about the case only confirms this, and shows up the abject idiocy of the university's
utterly predictable reaction to the attack. [...] The University of California Merced is no different from any other campus
all over the country today: full of self-righteous, pseudo-intellectual, indoctrinated bots who have been thoroughly imbued
with the notion that when Islamic jihadists attack us, it is our fault.
FBI Admits Faisal Mohammad A Self-Radicalized Jihadist.
Now they admit he was a "self-radicalized" Islamist. Previously, they spent a lot of time claiming to have no
idea what his motive could possibly be. If you don't remember the stabbing spree at Merced University, that's because
Obama and the FBI have conspired to make sure you don't.
Feds Cover
Up Another ISIS Case. The Obama regime has finally admitted what we've been arguing for months —
that November's stabbing spree at a California college was not only terrorism, but also an ISIS-inspired attack.
What took so long?
Four
Stabbed, Suspect Killed at California College. The attacker, a male student, was shot and killed by police.
Call
it terrorism, says father of hero who helped stop stabber at California college. The California college student who
stabbed four people last month in a campus spree that ended when he was killed by campus police was described by his roommate
as "an extreme Muslim" and carried a manifesto and a photocopy of an ISIS flag — more than enough to convince John
Price he was a terrorist. Yet, more than a month after the Nov. 4 attack at University of California Merced, local and
federal authorities continue to insist that Faisal Mohammad, 18, carried out the vicious attack because he'd been banished from a
study group. Price, whose son Byron Price, a 31-year-old construction manager for the family business who was working nearby
and was stabbed when he heroically intervened, suspects the White House's reluctance to identify acts of radical Islamic terror
has trickled down to investigators who are still probing the Merced attack.
Sword-wielding
Muslim chases neighbor in California and other news from adherents of the Religion of Peace. A Muslim man
wielding a sword screamed that he would "die and kill for Allah" as he chased his terrified neighbor down the street. It
happened on Monday [12/7/2015] in Victorville, California, located in San Bernardino County. The Victor Valley News reports
that the suspect, Mohamed Elrawi, was taken into custody after investigators searched his home and found a copy of the Quran and
other items suggesting he had become "radicalized." (I happen to think the word "radicalized" is as bogus as the term "radical
Islam." People do not become radicalized. They become devout.)
Stop
Lying, Progressives, and Call It What It Is: Islamic Terrorism. The classification of the recent knife attack
on several students at the University of California at Merced by 18-year-old Faisal Mohammad is in danger of falling through
the cracks of political correctness. [...] A subsequent search of Mohammad's property uncovered a folded copy of the ISIS
flag, a handwritten manifesto with detailed instructions to behead students and multiple reminders to "praise Allah." This
horrendous act was then glorified on a Twitter posting from an account associated with ISIS stating "May Allah accept him."
Is there any question as to how this incident should be classified? Apparently in the minds of some there is. At a press
briefing, Merced County Sheriff Vern Warnke said "there is nothing to indicate this was anything other than a teenage boy who got
upset with a few fellow classmates."
ISIS-linked
tweet praises Calif. university stabber as details on his background emerge. As authorities worked to establish
a motive for the 18-year-old college freshman who stabbed four people on a California campus Wednesday [11/4/2015], more disturbing
details emerged about the attacker. Faisal Mohammad, who was killed by University of California Merced police, was described
by at least one witness as smiling as he slashed at victims, called a loner by a fellow dorm resident and drew praise Thursday from
a Twitter account associated with ISIS, which just last week released a series of videos calling for lone wolf stabbing attacks.
UC
Merced Stabbing Spree Suspect May Have Had Larger Plot, Officials Say. A college freshman who stabbed four
people at the University of California Merced before being killed by police apparently carried out the attack because he was
upset over being kicked out of a study group, officials said Thursday [11/5/2015]. Merced County Sheriff Vern Warnke
said authorities discovered a two-page "script" while conducting an autopsy on suspect Faisal Mohammad, the 18-year-old
freshman who carried out the attack.
Faisal
Mohammad identified as man who went on 'smiling' as he went on stabbing spree. A reclusive student shot dead by
police after stabbing four people in a California university campus attack 'had far greater intentions to do damage', Merced
County Sheriff said Wednesday [11/4/2015]. Faisal Mohammad, a freshman who majored in computer science and engineering at
the University of California was carrying highly flammable petroleum jelly, ziptie handcuffs, night vision goggles, duct tape
and a hammer in his backpack when he was shot in the back by cops.
California
Knife Attacker Identified as Militant Quaker Extremist. I'm just guessing the religion of the knife-wielding
attacker — who stabbed multiple innocents at UC Merced — based upon his name.
Media
Yawn At Calif. College Stabbing Spree By Freshman Mohammad. Something terrible happened on a U.S. college campus that's
escaped national media coverage, likely because it wasn't a mass shooting and the suspect wasn't a disturbed white kid, but Faisal
Mohammad. The weapon was a hunting knife, so it didn't help advance the mainstream media's anti-gun agenda. But news of
the attack, completely blacked out by major media, was no less terrifying than recent campus shootings.
Campus
stabber's manifesto included 'praise for Allah,' plan for beheading. A handwritten manifesto carried by a
California college student whose stabbing spree Wednesday [11/4/2015] left four wounded bore names of his targets, a vow "to cut
someone's head off" and as many as five reminders to "praise Allah," law enforcement authorities told FoxNews.com, while insisting
that neither terrorism nor religion appear to be motives in the attack. In the two-page document found in Faisal Mohammad's
pocket by the county coroner, the 18-year-old freshman wrote a numeric list outlining his plans of who he wanted to kill, and how,
including beheading and shooting his victims, Merced County Sheriff Vern Warnke told FoxNews.com

Report:
UC Merced stabber was on terror watch list, had Islamic State flag. If the information in this report is true,
then Merced County Sheriff Vern Warnke was deliberately lying when he told the media that this attack had nothing to do with
Faisal Mohammad's Islamic faith. What is the motive of these people? When it comes to Islamic jihad attacks, virtually all
public officials downplay the Islamic aspect, obfuscate the motive, and often lie outright, all to protect Islam. What has
made Islam sacrosanct so that no matter how high the stack of bodies gets, no matter how many atrocities are committed in its
name and in accord with its teachings, the one thing we must not do at all costs is identify the root cause properly?
New Details Emerge About UC
Merced Stabber. It is looking increasingly likely that Faisal Mohammad, the knife-wielding assailant who was shot and killed by
police after stabbing four people at the University of California, Merced, last Wednesday, was motivated by quite a bit more than disappointment
over being kicked out of a study group. Local authorities have decided to hand over control of the criminal investigation to the FBI after
"new information" about Mohammad came to light on Saturday [11/7/2015], according to Merced County Sheriff Vern Warnke.
ISIS
flag, radical manifesto raise questions about Calif. campus stabber's motive. The California college student who stabbed four
people last week was carrying an image of the black flag of ISIS according to a report Tuesday [11/10/2015], as well as a handwritten manifesto
with instructions to behead a student and multiple reminders to pray to Allah, yet authorities continued to insist Faisal Mohammad's motives
had nothing to do with radical Islam. The 18-year-old, who was killed by a campus police officer to end the Wednesday morning attack,
was a loner who was incensed at being booted from a study group, according to Merced County Sheriff Vern Warnke. But the extreme way
Mohammad dealt with his rage, the presence of the printout of Islamic State's black flag and the deadly plans spelled out in the two-page
document he carried could indicate there was more to the attack than simple rejection.
Umpqua College Shooting
October 1, 2015
Islamic
State (ISIS) Claims Responsibility for Chris Harper Mercer Umpqua College Shooting. The Islamic State is
crowing on social media, laying claim to the mass murder in Roseburg, Oregon. Not surprising. Lining up
Christians and shooting them in the head is one of their religious rituals. There is much we do not know. We
know Harper Mercer's only male friend was a jihad sympathizer who praised "the brave Mujahideen heroes." And said,
"The Mujahideen freedom fighters of Palestine. My brothers and sisters keep on doing your thing. Allahu Akbar."
"my brave soldiers keep on fighting for the liberation of Palestine against Israel [...]"
Was
the Oregon mass shooting an Islamist attempt to assassinate Alek Skarlatos? Was last week's massacre at Umpqua
Community College in Oregon a failed attempt to assassinate a Christian American hero for thwarting a Muslim terrorist train
attack this summer in France? There may simply be a series of unlikely coincidences at play, or there may be circumstantial
evidence suggesting that anti-jihadist hero Alek Skarlatos was an intended target of Chris Harper-Mercer, who put several Christians
to death in an Umpqua classroom on Thursday, Oct. 1 for being Christian.
Attack on a high-speed rail line in Belgium
August 21, 2015
America
And Europe Desperately Need History Lesson On Radical Islam. Hundreds of potential victims owe their lives to
three Americans and a fellow British passenger who risked theirs to save them on an Amsterdam to Paris train last week.
The heroes, including two U.S. servicemen on leave, contrast sharply with the unarmed crew who barricaded themselves inside
locked cabins. And even more so with politically correct leaders on both sides of the Atlantic who continually fail to
show leadership in confronting radical Islam. Even though the gunman, Moroccan 25-year old Ayoub el-Khazzani, was known
to Spanish, German and French authorities for ties to "radical Islamist movements" and was armed with an AK-47, 300 rounds of
ammo, a pistol and box cutter, the French government's reaction was typical: "It is too early to speak of a terrorist link."
Man
tackled on train on authorities' radar in 3 countries. Three American travelers say they relied on gut instinct
and a close bond forged over years of friendship as they took down a heavily armed man on a passenger train speeding through Belgium.
Trump the Trickster and Our
National Identity. [Scroll down] The Americans didn't stop to consider that the jihadist might be a
member of a historically oppressed culture, or what slights he might have been subject to in his past. You have to
have a Ph.D. in something or other to think so precisely on the spot. Only a product of many years of déformation
professionnelle in one of our Ivy League universities could have his native hue of resolution so obscured by the pale cast
of thought that he loses the ability to act when action is clearly needed. Neither did they heed the advice of Homeland
Security. Had they done so they would have locked themselves in the bathroom and waited for help to arrive.
America in Their Bones. It was astounding how the
three Americans — Anthony Sadler, Alek Skarlatos, Spencer Stone — leaped, without appraising personal risk, from
their seats and lit into the lug who held an AK-47. They sensed what had to be done. They did it. How American!
That is no bad way to think about the affair on the train. Though as a people, we're a little rusty when it comes to sorting out
good guys from bad ones and knowing instinctively which side to come in on with fists and moral power.
Semper
Fi-Speed Rail: Three U.S. Marines Overpower Gunman On Amsterdam-To-Paris Train. U.S. Marines heard the distinctive
sound of a gunman charging an AKM-pattern rifle in the bathroom of a high-speed Amsterdam-to-Paris train, and beat him down
before he could carry out a massacre. [...] Attitude goes a long way towards determining the winner of a fight. In this
instance, the honed reflexes and warrior spirit of the Marines enabled them to quickly overcome what is believed to be a
fully-automatic weapon and subdue the gunman with a minimal number of casualties, preventing a possible massacre.
Mystery
hero of the French train attack revealed as American professor. As four heroes were awarded France's highest
honor of bravery on Monday for preventing 'carnage' by tackling a French train terrorist, a fifth hero has been revealed.
Mark Moogalian, an academic at the University of Paris, was shot in the neck as he fought with Ayoub El-Khazzani on board the
high-speed service from Amsterdam to Paris. Moogalian, 51, originally from Midlothian, Virginia, is said to have first
become suspicious when he saw El-Khazzani enter the train's bathroom with his suitcase on Friday [8/21/2015].
France
Train Jihadi 'Dumbfounded' to Be Accused of Terrorism. It is a recurring and increasingly ridiculous feature of
jihad terror coverage: every time a Muslim screaming "Allahu akbar" plants a bomb or opens fire on a crowd of infidels,
mainstream media coverage notes that "the attacker's motive is not known." But now Ayoub el-Khazzani, the Muslim gunman who
was overpowered by three Americans, including two Marines, on a Paris-bound train last Friday, has gone the media one better
by professing to be "dumbfounded" at being accused of terrorism. But the media, not unexpectedly, is happily going along,
spreading the fog of disinformation that envelops the West's response to the jihad threat even more thickly.
2 members of U.S. military stop Islamist attacker on
train in Belgium. The train was speeding through Belgium when the man emerged from the train bathroom, shirtless
with a rifle — possibly an AK 47 — slung over his shoulder, the Americans said. The three
men — a member of the Air Force, an inactive National Guard member and a civilian — responded quickly,
possibly preventing a deadly attack on the high-speed Thalys train. The suspect had a box cutter or some other bladed
weapon, authorities said.
Americans hailed
as heroes for foiling train attack. One serves in the Air Force, another recently served in Afghanistan in the
National Guard, another is studying physical therapy in California — and all three Americans are being hailed as heroes for
tackling and disarming a gunman they happened to encounter on a high-speed train between Amsterdam and Paris.
Americans
Recount Bloody Encounter With Gunman on Train to France. The passenger — singled out by French
officials for his courage, but not named by them — threw himself on the man. The gun went off, once, twice,
several times. Glass shattered. A bullet hit a passenger. The man with the gun kept going down the carriage,
holding his AK-47 and a Luger pistol. In a pocket was a sharp blade capable of inflicting grievous harm. The man
had at least nine cartridges of ammunition, enough for serious carnage.
As usual, the lawyers claim it's all a misunderstanding.
What
Terror? Train Gunman Wanted to Rob People, Lawyer Says. The gunman who was disarmed by passengers on a train in
France two days ago looked weak and malnourished and said he had only meant to rob people, a lawyer who interviewed him after
the attack said on Sunday [8/23/2015]. "(I saw) somebody who was very sick, somebody very weakened physically, as if he
suffered from malnutrition, very, very thin and very haggard," the lawyer, Sophie David, told BFMTV. David said the
26 year-old Moroccan expressed surprise when he was told that European authorities suspected him of being an Islamist militant.
As usual, the police can't imagine what his motivation might be.
Suspected
Train Attacker Ayoub El Khazzani Probed for Links to 'Broader Framework'. Authorities were investigating on
Sunday whether the heavily-armed gunman thwarted in the midst of an apparent terror attack on a Amsterdam-Paris train was
acting alone, or whether "a wider framework" was involved. Belgium's chief prosecutor Eric Van Sypt told NBC News that
the suspected attacker was 26-year-old Moroccan Ayoub El Khazzani, who had lived in Europe for several years and recently
spent time in Brussels. Van Sypt said it was not yet known if El Khazzani had an accomplice or was acting alone, and
authorities in Belgium were probing "if there is possibly a wider framework involved."
France train gunman identified as
Islamist militant. Fingerprint evidence shows that the gunman overpowered by passengers on a train in France is a Morrocan
known to European authorities as a suspected Islamist militant, according to a source familiar with the case. Two people were
wounded in the struggle to subdue the Kalashnikov-toting attacker aboard the high-speed train from Amsterdam to Paris on Friday [8/21/2015].
Hero's
Father To MSNBC: 'PC Crowd Needs To Recognize Terrorism For What It Is'. Emanuel Skarlatos, father of Alek Skarlatos, the
Guardsman who helped save dozens of innocent lives on a train in France, had a strong condemnation for the would-be assailant and the
political correctness crowd, saying, "this terrorist coward deserved what he got, and the PC crowd needs to recognize terrorism for what
it is." "It's better to die like a lion that be slaughtered like sheep," Skarlatos also said in a phone interview with MSNBC's
"News Nation" with Tamron Hall [8/24/2015].

Under
Obama: 8 Islamic Terror Attacks That Could Have Been Prevented. Kuwaiti-born Mohammad Youssef Abdulazeez had
spent seven months in Jordan before shooting up a recruiting center and a Navy Reserve center. A friend told CNN that
"something happened over there," and before the shooting Abdulazeez blogged about wanting to become a martyr, fighting "jihad
for the sake of Allah."
Update: What was immediately obvious to you and me if finally being admitted by Jeh Johnson.
Why
Now? FBI Decides Terror Motivated Chattanooga Shooter. The FBI announced foreign terrorists "inspired and motivated"
the shooter behind the attack at a reserve center in Chattanooga, Tennessee last summer. The designation is significant because
[it] allows victims of the shooting to receive the Purple Heart, along with all the benefits and compensations that go with the medal.
In the Chattanooga attack, Mohammed Yousef Abdulaziz killed four U.S. marines and a naval petty officer. FBI investigators just
announced Abdulaziz was inspired by Anwar al-Awlaki, a U.S.-born cleric who was a senior operative for Al-Qaeda. At the time of
the shooting, in statements to the media, the FBI pointedly stated Abdulaziz was a "homegrown violent extremist" who acted on his own.
The message was not a holding pattern — words chosen by the FBI until more facts were in about the case. Rather, it was
part of a national strategy instituted by the U.S. government, explained by the head of U.S. Homeland Security, Jeh Johnson.
Pentagon
To Protect Recruiters With 'Desk Partitions,' No Guns. [Mohammad Youssef] Abdulazeez had hundreds of rounds of
ammo and could have killed dozens more service members. He was stopped only because others returned fire. Still, "none of
the military services are interested in arming recruiters," the [Marine Corps] Times reported. Why? Brass worry that
shoppers at malls, as well as educators, parents and students on school campuses, might be alarmed at seeing soldiers carrying
guns. "Recruiters showing up armed is not going to make either educators or parents comfortable," Marine Corps Commanding
General Mark Brilakis said.

Carolina Resists Syrian Refugee Resettlement. Middle Tennessee has long been a favorite dumping ground for
Muslim refugees. The threat posed by budding jihadists was dismissed there until Muhammad Abdualzeez went on his
rampage shooting in Chattanooga.

Chattanooga
Marine Unleashes BRUTAL Video On Obama, Says 9 Words That Are Going Viral. A U.S.
Marine offered President Barack Obama a tough lesson in what it means to show respect for his fallen
brothers-in-arms. In the 11 minute video, the unnamed veteran, who said he is from Chattanooga,
first called out the president on the manner he chose to speak following the Chattanooga shootings.
"The day of the attack, you delivered a statement. You didn't even have the decency to stand up,"
he said.
Report:
Chattanooga Victims May Not Be Eligible for Purple Hearts. Four Marines and one sailor
who were killed in the Chattanooga shooting reportedly will only be eligible to receive Purple Heart
awards if the FBI declares the shooter had ties to a terror organization. The FBI has only
referred to Mohammad Youssuf Abdulazeez as a "homegrown violent extremist." "Determination of
eligibility will have to wait until all the facts are gathered and the FBI investigation is
complete," Marine Corps public affairs officer Maj. Clark Carpenter told the Marine Corps Times.
Information
about the Chattanooga Shooter is Disappearing from the Internet. week after
Chattanooga shooter Mohammad Abdulazeez's attack, very little is known about his motives, path to
radicalization, and network of affiliations. Immediately after the attack, Islamic State (IS)
fighters and supporters hailed Abdulazeez as a "soldier of the Islamic State," but no official
messages from IS claiming the attack have yet been made. This silence is noteworthy considering the
case of the shooting in Garland, Texas: Not only did IS fighter Junaid Hussain bluntly indicate his
connection to this attack, but in less than two days, IS officially announced the shooters to be "two
soldiers from the soldiers of the Caliphate." So why all the confusion surrounding Abdulazeez?
Because he was prepared. Abdulazeez did what jihadists are asked to do prior to execution of their
attacks: delete important information that could provide insight into their networks.
Sources:
Navy officer, Marine fought to take out Chattanooga gunman. A Navy officer and a
Marine fired their sidearms hoping to kill or subdue the gunman who murdered five service members
last week in Chattanooga, Tennessee, according to multiple military officials familiar with internal
reporting on the tragedy. It remains unclear whether either hit Muhammad Abdulazeez, who was
shot and killed on July 16 after he gunned down four Marines and a sailor at the Navy Operational
Support Center in Chattanooga. It's also unclear why they were armed, as it is against Defense
Department policy for anyone other than military police or law enforcement to carry weapons on
federal property.
Chattanooga
Marines Reportedly Sacrificed Themselves to Protect Innocents. According to reporting
from The New York Times, some of the Marines killed in the Chattanooga shooting were killed trying
to draw the gunman's fire away from another, larger group of innocent bystanders.
Lawyer:
Tennessee Shooter's Uncle Detained in Jordan. An uncle of the man who killed four
Marines and a sailor in Tennessee has been in custody in Jordan since a day after the attacks on two
military sites, a lawyer said Tuesday [7/21/2015].
The
Chattanooga Shooter's "Muslim Brotherhood" Uncle Has Been Detained in Jordan. Things
just got a whole lot more interesting folks. Uncle Asaad Ibrahim Asaad Haj Ali, has been detained in
Jordan since the day after the shootings in Tennessee. Uncle Ali is represented in Jordan by the
Muslim Brotherhood. I'm now 99.9% certain that Abdulazeez's father's previous investigation,
which put him on the terrorist watch list, is connected to the Holy Land Foundation terrorist
financing investigation — as a direct tie to his mosque's involvement. That pre-Obama
DOJ investigation was wrapped around the Muslim Brotherhood infiltration of North America Islamic
groups. Despite their protestations to the contrary, the Muslim Brotherhood is the political
umbrella over ISIS.
Terrorist mollycoddled but no flags lowered
to half-staff. Why do major television networks continue to get away with mollycoddling
murdering radical terrorists in the very wake of their evil carnage? Within four days of the attack
that claimed the lives of four US Marines and a Navy sailors slaughtered in the Chattanooga shooting spree,
ABC is portraying poor Mohammod Abdulazeez — not as a radical Islamic terrorist —
but as a "disturbed, suicidal young man using drugs, preparing for bankruptcy and facing an appearance
in criminal court".
Report:
Chattanooga Killer Viewed al-Awlaki Videos Before Murders. Mohammad Youssuf Abdulazeez, the 24-year-old
who carried out an attack in Chattanooga last week that killed five U.S. servicemen and wounded several others,
researched the late radical American cleric Anwar al-Awlaki before carrying out his mass murder, authorities say.
Under
fire for inaction, Obama orders flags lowered for Chattanooga victims. President
Obama, facing growing criticism from conservatives and some veterans, ordered all American flags on
federal grounds to be lowered to half-staff for the remainder of the week to honor the five service
members killed at a naval reserve center in Chattanooga, Tenn.
Five days after the attack:
President
Obama Orders Flags Fly at Half Mast to Honor Chattanooga Shooting Victims. President
Barack Obama ordered flags to be lowered in honor of the service members killed July 16 by a gunman
in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Mohammad Abdulazeez, 24, shot four Marines, a sailor and a police officer.
Obama
Orders Military to Stop Wearing Uniforms at Recruitment Centers to Hide from Terrorists. After last week's
terror attack on two military recruitment offices in Tennessee, Obama's defense secretary has taken steps to stop future
attacks. Has he moved to arm our soldiers? Nope. He's ordered them to cower and hide by telling them to
stop wearing their uniforms. You heard that right. Obama's administration is demanding that soldiers stop
wearing their uniforms so that terrorists won't get mad.
Obama
Praises Move To Recognize Eid As An Official Holiday. Keep in mind, he said this just
after a Muslim killed four U.S. Marines and a sailor on American soil.
Muslim
Killer Prayed at Islamic Center Next Door to 'Gun Free' Armed Forces Recruiting Location. Mohammad
Youssef Abdulazeez, the 24-year-old Kuwaiti-born Muslim terrorist who murdered five active duty members of the
U.S. Armed Forces in Chattanooga on Thursday, prayed several times at a Brentwood, Tennessee Islamic Center
located next door to a "gun free" Armed Forces Career Center. Mohammad Fazili is the leader of the Islamic
Center of Williamson County. It's located in a strip mall on Carothers Parkway in Brentwood, next door
to an Armed Forces Career Center that features a "WARNING: Weapons Prohibited" sign on its door. Fazili
tells the local Nashville, Fox News affiliate that Abdulazeez had participated in afternoon prayers there but
"after the first two, three days of Ramadan he disappeared."
Tennessee
gunman was armed to the teeth and ready for war with America. Mohammad Youusef
Abdulazeez, the naturalized American-turned Islamic radical who killed four Marines Thursday
[7/16/2015], was heavily armed, wore an ammo vest and was bent on waging war against America, according
to authorities who spoke a day after the horrific attack at two military facilities in Chattanooga.
Time
to make the Islamic State fear the U.S.. In fact, the threat of the Islamic State
(ISIS) has already appeared on our shores. A pair of arrests was made by federal agents in New
Jersey to capture men who conspired to join ISIS and to provide support to the Islamist group.
Within the past month alone, at least nine people have been taken into custody for terrorism-related
charges linked to ISIS, and that is without counting last week's terrorist attack in Chattanooga.
Last year, that man, Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez, made a trip to Jordan, and the FBI suspects that
he may have been in touch with extremist groups there.
Chattanooga
Shooter's Friend to CNN: 'He Loved America'. A friend of Chattanooga shooter Muhammad
Youssef Abdulazeez spoke out on CNN today about what he was like and what kind of person he was.
Lots of questions about Abdulazeez, his background, and his Muslim faith have been raised in the
days since he opened fire on two military installations, leaving four Marines and a Navy sailor
dead. CNN's Drew Griffin spoke with James Petty, a friend of Abdulazeez's, and in a clip,
Petty said, "He loved America. He was more American than me."
The Editor says...
I don't know where CNN found this guy, but obviously he is either mistaken, or just lying.
A man who loves America doesn't shoot at anyone in a U.S. military uniform, or at their office.
CNN is happy to use his testimonial to make the rest of us more reluctant to reach the obvious truth:
This was a Muslim simpleton (yes, a college graduate; still a simpleton) bent on martyrdom.
Chattanooga:
Stop Crying, Start Getting Angry. We need to stop crying over the 'senseless act of
violence' committed in Chattanooga on Thursday. This was not a single act of violence. It was
simply a continuation of a long war that too many in Washington fail to recognize. Stop decrying
this "senseless act" and start becoming enraged!
Gun Control:
The Killer's Best Friend. Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez is suspected of murdering four
unarmed Marines in Chattanooga and wounding others. As I write this, we still don't know how
Abdulazeez obtained his gun or what his motivations were — though, we can take an educated
guess on the latter. What we do know is that Abdulazeez shot his victims in a "gun-free zone,"
which is a useful illustration of the absurdity of gun-control laws: we constrain conscientious
Americans but offer free rein to killers. In this case, even our best trained warriors were helpless.
Top
Five Warning Signs That Mohammad Yousuff Abdulazeez Was Radicalized. [#5] A previously
clean shaven young man who is the son of Muslim parents from the Middle East suddenly begins sporting
a scraggly beard. I live in Hipster Hell so this would not necessarily indicate that a 24 year old
had been radicalized. But when you add this to the fact that his parents have been in this country for
decades and the majority of his female relatives still do not venture out of the house without sporting a
hijab[,] it points to a fundamentalist orientation in the family's religious observation.
Chattanooga
Is About Guns And Celebrating Ramadan. The media and the FBI are going through hoops
trying to figure out a motive for the terror killings in Chattanooga and they are trying to do it
without mentioning radical Islam. CNN can't seem to figure it out since the killer was such a good
kid, though at least one guest said we need to look at guns. Within hours of the shootings,
President Obama tweeted out his celebratory message to all Muslims in honor of the end of Ramadan.
In our modern day INGSOC, the Marines have the same capability of defending themselves as the rest of
us — they can call 911. CNN has a full-throttled disinformation campaign going on that.
Gun
Grabbers Ignore Terrorism in Chattanooga, Go For Guns Instead. The terrorist attack in
Chattanooga which ended in the deaths of five Marines and Sailors had nothing to do with guns and
everything to do with an ideology. Despite this, the media is searching for a motive, the
terrorist's parents are claiming he killed soldiers because he was depressed, and Michael
Bloomberg's Everytown is spending in the six-figures to buy ads promoting more gun control.
Tennessee
gunman texted friend link to Koranic verse before attack. A few hours before going on
a shooting spree that killed four Marines and a sailor in Tennessee, Mohammad Youssuf Abdulazeez
sent a cryptic and ominous text to a friend. The message included a link to an Islamic verse with
the line: "Whosoever shows enmity to a friend of Mine, then I have declared war against him."
But the text didn't throw up any red flags, the friend told Reuters — especially because
the two had hung out that week happily racing around in a rented Mustang.
Cruz:
Tennessee Gunman Wasn't 'Lone Shooter' Anymore Than Ft. Hood Was 'Workplace Violence'.
Texas Senator and Republican presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) declared that the shooting
in Chattanooga wasn't perpetrated by a "lone gunman" "anymore than Hasan and Fort Hood was workplace
violence" at Saturday's Family Leadership Summit in Iowa. Cruz said, "You cannot fight and defeat
radical Islamic terrorism when you have a president and an administration who refuses to utter the
words 'radical Islamic terrorism.'"
Obama
May Not Believe We are at War With Islamism, but Islamism is at War With Us. In the
wake of this vicious attack on our nation we need to rid ourselves of two dangerous delusions, first
and foremost that a 'lone gunman' — as President Obama described the shooter —
is somehow isolated from the larger threat of radical Islamic terrorism. In the modern world,
no one acts in isolation. Through social media ISIS, al Qaida, and other groups are infiltrating
our nation with impunity while our government will not even admit that radical Islamic terrorism is a problem.
The second delusion is that this attack is somehow isolated from previous episodes, notably those in Little Rock,
Arkansas and Fort Hood, Texas, in 2009 — both of which were attacks on American military facilities.
The Obama administration was woefully reluctant to call either an act of radical Islamic terrorism, instead
suggesting 'workplace violence' as a justification for the killings.
Family
of Chattanooga gunman says their son suffered from depression. The family of the man who authorities say killed
four Marines and a sailor in Chattanooga said in a statement that their son suffered from depression and was not the same person
they knew. "There are no words to describe our shock, horror, and grief," said the statement, provided Saturday [7/18/2015]
to the Associated Press by a lawyer representing the family of Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez. "The person who committed this
horrible crime was not the son we knew and loved. For many years, our son suffered from depression. It grieves us
beyond belief to know that his pain found its expression in this heinous act of violence."
The Editor says...
Of course it was the same person. When someone is depressed, suicidal or homicidal, he doesn't turn into another person.
Even if this depression claim is true, it is just a cover story to mask the influence of Islamic jihad on this coward's wasted life.
Who but a coward shoots at unarmed strangers?
Terrorist
Killed Marines To Celebrate Ramadan While Obama Just Celebrated End Of Ramadan. When
the Marines were Killed — White House released statement wishing Muslims a happy end to
Ramadan. Now, one Middle East source in London, Awsat just revealed that the Chattanooga Tennessee
shooter wrote on his Facebook page that he "wanted to be martyred before the end of Ramadan" as to
celebrate the holiest month and is "why he carried out his attack in the last day of Ramadan".
No,
the Chattanooga Shooter Really Does Appear to Be a Jihadist. In the immediate aftermath of Mohammod
Youssuf Abdulazeez's killing of four Marines and wounding of at least three other people, there was a noticeable
effort to portray the jihadist as an all-American boy from small-town Tennessee. With just a bit of digging,
however, a different picture is emerging. The New York Times reported Friday morning [7/17/2015] that
Abdulazeez had spent about seven months in Jordan last year. As is their wont in cases where Muslims kill
Americans, investigators hastened to point out that overseas stays in a region rife with Islamic radicalism are
not necessarily suggestive of terror ties ... even if the traveler, on his stateside return, promptly shoots up
military installations while the Islamic State and al-Qaeda urge Muslims to shoot up military installations.
Abbott
orders Texas National Guard to carry guns at military facilities. Gov. Greg Abbott
says he is reluctantly asking Texas Military Forces to arm soldiers at their home bases after
Thursday's attacks at military sites in Tennessee that killed four Marines and one sailor. Abbott
said in a release Saturday [7/18/2015] that he will authorize Adjutant General John Nichols of the
Texas National Guard to arm National Guard personnel at military facilities across Texas. Abbott's
move followed shootings on two military facilities in Chattanooga, Tenn.
Yes,
media... the motive for the Chattanooga shooting is just a mystery, isn't it? If
Abdulazeez had shot up the homes of some relatives we might readily assume it was some domestic
dispute gone badly awry. If he'd shot up any number of other targets where he at least had some
direct connections to the victims, this might have been something else entirely. But he didn't. He
shot up our uniformed heroes. He attacked our military and our first responders, right out of the
Jihadi 101 playbook. [...] Even in the bluest, most gun-grabby states we make allowances for a few
people to have weapons close at hand. Surely our military qualifies. If the marines in Chattanooga
had been armed that little cretin wouldn't have gotten off very many rounds. Sounds to me like something
that could be made to happen rather quickly without a lot of expense.
Jindal:
Chattanooga Shooting 'Underscores Grave Reality' That 'Radical Islam Is At War With Us'. Louisiana
Gov. Bobby Jindal, a 2016 GOP presidential candidate, is reacting to the shooting in Chattanooga, Tennessee, where
four U.S. marines were killed, allegedly by Kuwaiti-born 24-year-old Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez. [...] "This shooting
underscores the grave reality of the threat posed to us by radical Islamic terrorism every single day," Jindal said.
Andrea
Mitchell Tries to Portray Abdulazeez as a Gun Nut. Desperately looking for a way to
avoid pegging the Chattanooga murderer Mohammad Youssuf Abdulazeez as anything but a terrorist,
MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell asked a childhood friend of the killer what he liked to do in "small town
Tennessee": [...] Abdulzaeez apparently owned some guns, but it is unknown whether he bought them
after his return from the Middle East last year. For a terrorist, guns are a tool of the trade and
not a means of self defense or anything to take pleasure from on a hunt. For Mitchell to try and
equate terrorism with the gun culture instead of trying to get to the bottom of the shooter's
radicalization is horrible journalism.
Muslim
Marine murderer's father 'sexually assaulted wife and beat his son' — and wanted to take second wife
'because it was allowed under Islamic law'. The Muslim murderer of four US Marines came
from an abusive and violent home where his mother was physically and verbally abused by her husband.
Court documents obtained by Daily Mail Online reveal that Muhammad Youssuf Abdulazeez was also victim of
beatings by his father that were carried out 'without provocation or justification.'
Obama:
'We Take All Shootings Very Seriously'. "We take all shootings very seriously," Obama
said [7/16/2015]. "Obviously when you have an attack on a U.S. military facility then we have to
make sure we have all the information necessary to make an assessment in terms of how this attack took
place." Obama didn't reveal the name of the shooter even though he added that law enforcement
officials had identified the culprit — 24-year-old Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez.
Tennessee
shootings investigated for possible terrorism link. The shooter, identified by the FBI
as Mohammad Youssef Abdulazeez, 24, of Hixson, Tenn., was killed, apparently by police, at the end
of a rampage that also wounded a Chattanooga police officer and a member of the U.S. military.
The assault marks the latest eruption of gun violence in the United States. It comes amid a flurry
of recent arrests, disrupted plots and warnings from U.S. counterterrorism officials that the Islamic
State terrorist group has called on its followers to mount attacks against U.S. targets, including
military installations.
The Editor says...
The Washington Post has attempted, in the article immediately above, to conflate "gun violence" with
Islamic terrorism. It was obviously an act of terrorism, perpetrated by a Muslim.
It isn't necessary to look all day for a link to terrorism when the evidence speaks for itself.
Also note the headline: The shootings are being (why do they leave out verbs?) investigated for possible
terrorism link. Again, it was an obvious act of terrorism. What link is required to explain or mitigate this fact?
Republicans
blame Obama policies for rise in domestic terrorism. President Obama called the murder
of four Marines in Tennessee Thursday "heartbreaking" and pleaded for Americans not to jump to
conclusions, but Republicans were already blaming him for what investigators termed domestic
terrorism, as the shooting quickly became part of the 2016 presidential campaign. Louisiana Gov.
Bobby Jindal, who is seeking the GOP nomination, said the killing appeared to be terrorism, and said
Mr. Obama needs confront the dangers posed by the "evil" of jihadists.
Obama's
Iran Deal Should Die in Chattanooga. It's unlikely the hideous terror attack in Chattanooga, Tennessee,
was specifically ordered by ISIS, as was indicated by a tweet, but in the famous words of a woman who seeks to be our
first female president: "What difference at this point does it make?" Inspired by or directed
by is a distinction without a difference to the dead Marines and their families.
Muhammad...
Muhammad... Where Have I Heard That Name Before? In the wake of the latest mass
shooting, carried out by Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez, an engineer like so many Islamic terrorists,
we are seeing the usual scramble to avoid stating the obvious. On CNN, Tom Fuentes ludicrously
cautioned that Muhammad is not an Islamic name: [...]
The
Motive of Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez is Abundantly Clear. Four Marines are killed by
a Muslim terrorist and the mainstream media cannot fathom why. [...] Jihadists consider the presence
of the U.S. military and the military of its allies on Muslim lands to be a declaration of war against
Allah and have declared that it is duty of every Muslim to kill Americans and their allies be they
soldiers or civilians. At some point, Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez became convinced it was his
duty to kill American soldiers and yesterday he did just that.
Gun Control:
The Killer's Best Friend. Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez is suspected of murdering four
unarmed Marines in Chattanooga and wounding others. As I write this, we still don't know how
Abdulazeez obtained his gun or what his motivations were — though, we can take an
educated guess on the latter. What we do know is that Abdulazeez shot his victims in a "gun-free
zone," which is a useful illustration of the absurdity of gun-control laws: we constrain
conscientious Americans but offer free rein to killers. In this case, even our best trained warriors
were helpless. Surely, we are in for a new round of emotional pleas for more gun-control laws.
Trip
to radicalization? Authorities scrutinize Chattanooga shooter's visit to Jordan.
Mohammad Youusef Abdulazeez, the naturalized American-turned Islamic radical who killed four Marines
Thursday, was heavily armed, wore an ammo vest and was bent on waging war against America, according
to authorities who spoke a day after the horrific attack at two military facilities in Chattanooga.
Abdulazeez, 24, a Kuwaiti-born Chattanooga resident who was killed by police to end his rampage, used an
AK-47 to gun down the unarmed Marines after crashing into a gate at the Navy Operations Support Center,
according to Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, the chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee.
And the troubled gunman, who officials believe had become increasingly radicalized in recent months,
wore an ammo vest with multiple rounds of ammunition, while carrying other weapons.
Probe
of Chattanooga shooting suspect focuses on Mideast travel. U.S. authorities believe the suspect
in the fatal shootings of four Marines in Tennessee visited Jordan last year and possibly Yemen as well, two
U.S. government sources said on Friday [7/17/2015], as investigators looked for any connection to Islamist militants.
Mitchell
Fishes for Better Angle on Chattanooga Terrorist. MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell went fishing for a better
angle Friday [7/17/2015] when she asked a former classmate of Chattanooga mass murderer Mohammad Youssuf Abdulazeez
whether he enjoyed "hunting" and other "small-town Tennessee activity." "Were guns a big part of activities —
social or other activities?" Mitchell asked her interviewee abruptly. [...] Mitchell is a vocal opponent of the widespread
availability of firearms.
The Editor says...
Andrea Mitchell was apparently hoping to portray an Islamic terrorist as Jed Clampett, just because
he lived in Tennessee. "Fishing for a better angle" is exactly right — it appears that she desperately wanted to
steer the conversation away from the obvious: This was just another in an endless series of "lone wolf"
attacks, encouraged and incited by Islamists via the internet.
Chattanooga
Gunman Mohammod Youssuf Abdulazeez: 'Life Is Short and Bitter'. He was a hardened
mixed-martial arts fighter who kept a blog where he mused about submitting to Allah. And on
Thursday, the authorities say that Mohammod Youssuf Abdulazeez, 24, killed four Marines and wounded
at least three other people. He himself died in what the United States attorney here called a
potential act of "domestic terrorism." According to a federal official, Mr. Abdulazeez was a
Kuwaiti-born Jordanian who became a naturalized United States citizen.
Cruz:
Chattanooga shooting 'an act of war'. The shootings at military facilities in
Chattanooga, Tenn., constitute an act of war by radical Islamists, Sen. Ted Cruz said Friday
[7/17/2015]. The Texas senator and Republican presidential candidate linked the killings to a
broader extremist campaign against the United States. "Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez was there to
carry out jihad, an act of radical Islamic terrorism," he said in a statement. "An act of war, in
which those four brave Marines lost their lives, while at least two others were wounded."
After
Marines Slaughtered By Islamic Terrorist Obama Jets Off To Broadway Show, Fundraiser.
Just hours after four U.S. Marines were shot and killed by Islamic terrorist Muhammad Youssef
Abdulazeez in Chattanooga Thursday, the White House announced President Obama has plans to go see
Hamilton on Broadway over the weekend. [...] Obama will also attend a DNC fundraiser tonight
[7/17/2015], which is typical behavior after major national tragedies.
Chattanooga
gunman reportedly blogged about Islam, showed increased signs of devotion. The man
authorities say killed four U.S. Marines when he attacked two military sites in Chattanooga, Tenn.
was a practicing Muslim who reportedly showed signs of becoming increasingly devout in recent weeks.
Mohammad Youssef Abdulazeez, 24, was shot and killed by police after he allegedly attacked the
Marines at the Navy Operational Support Center and Marine Corps Reserve Center at around 11 a.m.
Thursday [7/16/2015]. Before attacking the military center, police say Abdulazeez sprayed an Armed Forces
recruiting center seven miles away with bullets, leaving a police officer with a non-life threatening ankle wound.
Chattanooga
shooting proves it's time to arm our Armed Forces. It turns out that at least one of
the two military facilities attacked in Chattanooga, Tennessee — was a gun-free zone.
If you looked closely crime scene photographs[,] you can see the sign[,] plastered on the
front of a bullet-riddled window. Four Marines were slaughtered — a fifth wounded —
along with a Chattanooga police officer. Authorities say the gunman, identified as 24-year-old
Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez, was killed in a shoot-out.
Why
should we make it easy for killers to attack our military? Thursday [7/16/2015] saw yet another
tragic attack in a gun-free zone. Four Marines were murdered. Others were injured. Watching
the coverage on television Thursday, it was hard to ignore the gun-free zone sign on the front door of the
recruiting station. It was surrounded by bullet holes.
4
Marines killed in attacks on Chattanooga military facilities. Two law enforcement
sources told CBS News that the shooting suspect was identified as Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez.
According to a U.S. intelligence official, a "first review" of intelligence databases have not found
any references to Abdulazeez. [...] U.S. Attorney Bill Killian said officials were treating the
attacks as an "act of domestic terrorism," though FBI Special Agent in Charge Ed Reinhold said
authorities were still investigating a motive.
US
official: Tennessee Gunman Identified as 24-year-old Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez. A U.S. official
tells the Associated Press the gunman in the shootings in Tennessee has been identified as 24-year-old Muhammad
Youssef Abdulazeez. He was believed to have been born in Kuwait, and it was unclear whether he was a U.S.
or Kuwaiti citizen. The official was speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss the ongoing, sensitive
investigation. It was not immediately clear whether the gunman's first name was spelled Muhammad or Mohammad.
Boston
June 3, 2015
Wake
up and smell the chaos. Speaking of the Islamic State, did you hear the one about the
glorious martyr in Boston who was killed while trying to figure out how to cut off a policeman's
head with a military knife while he was being shot? Seriously, that was a mean-looking blade, but
didn't he ever hear the one about bringing a knife to a gun fight? I suppose this could be seen
as good news, not bad news. One more dead terrorist after all, but when will we ever again have the
comfort level suggested by the words "homeland security"? Security is the opposite of what we have
in our country as our executive branch, with the connivance of Congress and the federal judiciary,
has imported hundreds of thousands (more like millions) of security threats in the form of jihadis,
drug dealers, career criminals and probably Russian, Chinese and Iranian spies.

"Draw Muhammad" cartoon contest in Garland, Texas that drew two Muslim gunmen that were shot and killed.
Rahim had been monitored by the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force and was believed to have been radicalized by
ISIS. He approached law enforcement officials holding a knife yesterday and they shot him, fearing for
their lives.

Imam: Cops Should Have Just Captured Terror Suspect Like an Elephant. An imam who came
before media today to speak on behalf of the family of slain terror suspect Usaamah Rahim protested
that the Joint Terrorism Task Force should have been able to capture the knife-wielding 26-year-old
alive — because you can capture animals alive. Abdullah Faaruuq, of the Mosque for
the Praising of Allah in Roxbury, was removed as Muslim chaplain at Boston's Northeastern University
in 2013. He's advocated for the release of convicted al-Qaeda terrorist Aafia Siddiqui and has
been accused of other instances of encouraging extremism.

February 14, 2015
Police:
Man stabs two after asking about religious beliefs. Both of the victims were standing
at the bus stop outside of Detroit with the suspect on Saturday [2/14/2015], Southfield Police Chief Eric
Hawkins said. Several people there "engaged in conversation" until the suspect, identified by Hawkins as
39-year-old Terrence Lavaron Thomas, "asked some of the folks there if they were Muslims." Two of
them answered, the chief told The [Washington] Post on Tuesday: They were not Muslims.
Thomas "was not not happy with that answer," Hawkins said. Shortly after, "without provocation,"
Thomas pulled out a 3-inch folding knife "and attacked one of them," Hawkins said.
Man Asks Bus Passengers If They Are Muslims And
When They Say No, He Stabs Them. Incidentally, the Washington Post's headline makes it
sound as if a non-Muslim is stabbing Muslims:
Police:
Man stabs two after asking if they are Muslim
People objected to that deliberately-misleading headline, so they've changed
it to a slightly different lie:
Police: Muslim
man stabs two after discussion about religious beliefs
They did not have a "discussion about religious beliefs." He asked
people if they were Muslim and, upon learning they were not, attacked them in accord with the teachings of his religion.
Terror
or hate? FBI probes Detroit-area stabbings where Muslim suspect reportedly asked victims'
faith. Detroit police contacted the federal law enforcement agency after Terrence
Lavaron Thomas, 39, was charged with two counts of assault with intent to murder after allegedly
attacking two men with a 3-inch blade at a bus stop near a shopping mall on Saturday [2/14/2015].
Both victims suffered stab wounds, and were treated and released from a hospital for non-life threatening
injuries. But it was the exchange the suspect allegedly had with his victims, in which he asked if
they were Muslim, that has prompted a further investigation.
Michigan
Man Stabs Two After Confiming They Were Not Muslim. A Muslim man in a Detroit suburb
Michigan asked two people at a bus stop if they were Muslim. After they both answered no, some talk
ensued, after which he stabbed both of them. Terrance Lavaton Thomas, 39, who is suspected of the
attack, which occurred on Valentine's Day evening, was arrested by police who found him within
minutes of the attack walking in the area carrying two knives, one of which was reported to have
been used in the attack. Local reports say that the man did not know the victims previously.
He reportedly made a number of comments about Islam and asked them about their religion just before
attacking them.
Christopher Lee Cornell, a/k/a Raheel Mahrus Ubaydah
January 14, 2015
Case
Against Capitol Bomb Suspect to Include Classified Evidence. The trial date for
Christopher Cornell, the Ohio man accused of plotting to bomb the U.S. Capitol and shoot federal
workers as they fled, was postponed Tuesday [2/4/2015] after prosecutors said they intended to use
classified evidence.
Ohio
Man Arrested for Alleged ISIS-Inspired Plot on US Capitol, FBI Says. The FBI today
arrested an Ohio man for allegedly plotting an ISIS-inspired attack on the U.S. Capitol, where he
hoped to set off a series of bombs aimed at lawmakers, whom he allegedly considered enemies.
Christopher Lee Cornell, 20, of Green Township, was arrested on charges of attempting to kill a U.S.
government official, authorities said.
Ohio
man, 20, arrested for ISIS-inspired terror plot on the US Capitol. The FBI today
arrested a 20-year-old Ohio man for allegedly plotting to carry out a terrorist attack on the US
Capitol. Christopher Lee Cornell, of Green Township, was taken into custody by federal agents on
charges of attempting to kill a government official and possession of a firearm in furtherance of
attempted crime of violence, according to a criminal complaint.
Ohio
man arrested, charged with Islamic State-inspired bomb plot on U.S. Capitol. An Ohio
man plotted to attack the U.S. Capitol using pipe bombs and rifles, saying he wanted to conduct an
attack in solidarity with the Islamic State terrorists the U.S. is fighting in the Middle East, the
FBI charged in a criminal complaint Wednesday [1/14/2015]. Christopher Cornell had saved money,
researched government buildings in Washington, laid plans to travel to the capital to carry out his
attack and on Wednesday bought two M-15 semiautomatic rifles and 600 rounds of ammunition,
prompting police to move in and arrest him.
Ohio
Man Charged With Plotting to Bomb U.S. Capitol. An Ohio man was arrested Wednesday and
accused of planning to attack the U.S. Capitol, U.S. officials told NBC News. But the officials
said the man was dealing with an undercover agent the entire time and was never in a position to carry
out his plan. "There was never a danger to the public," an official told NBC News.
The Editor says...
If there was never any danger to the public, why was he arrested? This sounds like another FBI sting job
bordering on entrapment.
FBI Defuses Another Of Its
Own Terrorist Plots. Not only did he just convert to Islam a few months ago (and
there's no indication that he ever actually attended the mosque that he claimed to have joined), but
the details of the overall story certainly match the pattern of an FBI made up plot.
FBI: Green
Township man planned ISIS-inspired terrorist attack on US Capitol. John Cornell Sr.,
Cornell's father, said his son converted to Islam only recently. He said his son didn't discuss his
new religion often, and was just a normal kid "who loved video games and was best friends with the
family cat." Cornell Sr. said he noticed his son praying about two months ago.
The
man who allegedly plotted to attack U.S. Capitol. Recently, Cornell converted to
Islam, his father said, explaining that he first noticed his son praying about two months ago.
Since then, his son has "found peace in the religion," he told the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Cincinnati
Man Chris Cornell Arrested In Pipe Bomb Plot, FBI Says. John Cornell, the father of
alleged ISIS pipe bomber Chris Cornell, told CNN that his son was discussing converting to Islam in
recent days. Cornell said he could not recall the Muslim name his son had pondered taking, but
noted that it had something to do with "being protected by God."
New
details on man who allegedly plotted to bomb U.S. Capitol. Christopher's family say he
had been interested in Islam for several months and it was only recently that he actually converted
to Islam.
Latest
FBI Claim Of Disrupted Terror Plot Deserves Much Scrutiny and Skepticism. Family
members say Cornell converted to Islam just six months ago and claimed he began attending a small
local mosque. Yet The Cincinnati Enquirer could not find a single person at that mosque who had ever
seen him before, and noted that a young, white, recent convert would have been quite conspicuous at
a mosque largely populated by "immigrants from West Africa," many of whom "speak little or no English."
Father
of Ohio terror suspect defends 'mama's boy'. Cornell is accused of using cyberspace to
plot to assassinate congressional employees and attack the U.S. Capitol for his personal jihad. He
was charged with attempted killing of U.S. government officers and possession of firearms in furtherance
of an attempted crime of violence. Authorities said Cornell began communicating with the informant
via Twitter in August, and that they first met in October. Cornell, using his alias, posted pro-jihadist
videos and statements on several Twitter accounts and expressing support for the Islamic State. "I
believe that we should just wage jihad under our own orders and plan attacks and everything," Cornell wrote
in an Aug. 29, 2014, Instant Message online, the FBI alleges.
The Editor says...
The fishiest aspect of this story is that the FBI started watching this fellow in August of last year, but his father says young Mr. Cornell
only recently converted to Islam, as in
about two months ago. Did someone from
the FBI encourage a hapless dupe to convert to Islam? Not likely, but the FBI sure latched on to this guy the moment he
said something on his Twitter account. And these days the FBI is in need of success stories which can be injected into the evening
news whenever the White House needs a red herring, which is often.
John
Boehner explanation for foiled Capitol shooting plot at odds with FBI. John Boehner
said on Thursday that Christopher Cornell, the 20-year old Ohio man arrested for allegedly planning
a Capitol Hill shooting spree, had his plot foiled thanks to communications intercepted by US
authorities. [...] Yet according to the criminal complaint against Cornell, a secret government
informant, not the communications interception covered by Fisa, was the key to the case.
House
Speaker John Boehner says controversial government surveillance responsible for uncovering plot to
bomb the US Capitol. House Speaker John Boehner credited a controversial government
surveillance program on Thursday [1/15/2015] for helping uncover an alleged plot by an Ohio man to
bomb the U.S. Capitol and kill government officials. 'The first thing that strikes me is that
we would have never known about this had it not been for the FISA [Foreign Intelligence Surveillance
Act] program and our ability to collect information on people who pose an imminent threat.' He
addressed the topic during a news conference at a retreat of Republican lawmakers in Hershey, Pennsylvania.
Kosher deli in Paris
January 8, 2015
Obama
and the Flippancy of Fools. Over the last 7 years of the Obama era, Barack Obama and
his team have regularly responded to serious questions with flippant responses. Don't Americans
deserve better than the flippancy Obama and his top officials dish out to us? [... For example,] When a man
claiming allegiance to ISIS killed four Jews in a deli in Paris in January 2015, Obama dismissed the deliberate
targeting of Jews since he said the attack was someone who just "randomly" shot "a bunch of folks in a deli in
Paris." The facts: the deli was Jewish, all the victims were Jewish (non-Jewish customers and
employees were spared) and the murderer had said he was targeting Jews. They weren't a bunch of random
folks in a deli.
Paris
Details Reveal Islamist Gunman Asked Religion Of Hostages Then Killed The Jews.
Obviously President Obama looked like a fool when he proclaimed the victims of the Kosher market
killings were just a bunch "of random folks" because he wanted desperately to remain willfully blind
and disconnect the hateful ideology of the Islamist killer away from Muslim sensibility. But the
latest revelations of what actually took place inside that market make Obama's foolishness appear
even more foolish.
Paris attacks: Coulibaly siege video transcript emerges. Details
have emerged of footage filmed by Paris gunman Amedy Coulibaly during a bloody rampage inside a Jewish supermarket, a French website says.
He delivers an anti-Semitic rant and shouts "Stand up or I'll kill you" at hostages, according to a transcript obtained by Le Nouvel Observateur.
During the seven-minute video he shoots dead three of his four victims.

Will
France Finally Rain Justice Down on Islamic Terrorists? A court case in Paris began on September 2, 2020 to
render justice concerning a series of terrorist attacks in recent French history. The case is occurring after five
years of investigation and delay, partly due to COVID-19, which caused the closing of most French courthouses, with the trial
of 14 suspects, three in absentia, accused of being connected with those responsible for the terror attacks on the satirical
weekly magazine Charlie Hebdo in central Paris and following events — the attack on a kosher supermarket,
Hypercacher, in east Paris and other sites for three days beginning on January 7, 2015. The suspects are charged with
being involved in the logistics and preparation of the events, helping finance and providing operational materials and
weapons in support of the jihadists. Because of its unusual nature, and the judicial and political importance of the
trial, which is expected to last two months, the high-security proceedings are to be filmed.
Charlie Hebdo to reprint
Prophet Muhammad cartoons on day Islamist attackers of French satirical magazine go on trial. French satirical
magazine Charlie Hebdo, which was targeted by jihadists in 2015, is to republish the controversial cartoons of the Prophet
Muhammad ahead of the trial of the gunmen this week. A special edition of the magazine on Wednesday [9/2/2020] will
feature interviews with family members of the victims of the terrorist attack, an article on the public's attitude towards
freedom of expression and a reprint of Islam-themed cartoons, including those featuring the Prophet Muhammad, Charlie Hebdo
announced on Tuesday. The prophet cartoons triggered the 2015 spree of terror violence in Paris, in which 17 people
were killed over the course of three days. Of those lives, 12 were lost in the January 7 raid on the Charlie Hebdo
office. The 12 drawings were initially published by a Danish daily in 2005 and then reprinted by the French magazine.
Alleged
Charlie Hebdo attack organizer lands in France, initial charges served. Peter Cherif, who is suspected of
helping to arrange the 2015 attack on the satirical magazine's offices, has been deported from Djibouti. He had been on
the run for seven years following other alleged crimes. French authorities on Sunday [12/23/2018] served preliminary
terrorism charges against a suspected jihadi accused of helping to organize the terrorist shooting at the Paris headquarters
of the magazine Charlie Hebdo.
Update:
Charlie
Hebdo attack suspect arrested, French officials say. French authorities confirmed on Friday the arrest of a
suspected extremist linked to the 2015 attack on Charlie Hebdo satirical magazine that killed 12 people.
Morocco-born
Charlie Hebdo journalist quits magazine, complains it's afraid to take on radical Islam. Charlie Hebdo
journalist Zineb El Rhazoui is parting ways with the French satirical magazine because the publication has dulled its attack
against Islamic extremism, she said Friday. Ms. Rhazoui, 35, indicated in a new interview that she believes the
magazine lost its edge after two Islamists stormed its Paris office in Jan. 2015 and murdered 12 people, including eight
of her colleagues. Speaking on the eve of the massacre's second anniversary, the journalist described the rampage as a
turning point for the magazine, editorially speaking.
Charlie
Hebdo jihad massacre survivor: "We need to stop saying Islam is a religion of peace". As a secular
Muslim, Zineb El Rhazoui is allowed to say in the mainstream what others are excoraited as "anti-Muslim extremists" for
saying. The truth is true no matter who says it, but in today's culture of identity politics, it's truer when coming
from racially and culturally approved voices. [Video clip]
Charlie
Hebdo faces 'immiment' attack after publishing image of naked Muslims. The satirical French magazine Charlie
Hebdo has received death threats after it published another controversial front page which has been accused of mocking
Muslims. Commenting on the decision to ban burkas from beaches in Cannes, the latest issue depicts a man and woman with
a traditional beard and hijab running naked on the beach with the caption "The reform of Islam: Muslims loosen up".
The issue was published on Wednesday and the staff received a threat that a new attack was imminent via the magazine's Facebook
page, Le Parisien reported.
Kerry
Marks Terrorism Anniversary Without Mentioning Terrorism. Secretary of State John Kerry marked the first anniversary of the
Charlie Hebdo and Jewish market attacks in Paris without mentioning terrorism. Saïd and Chérif Kouachi killed 11 people
and wounded 11 more at the newsroom of the satirical magazine on Jan. 7, 2015. Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula claimed
responsibility for the massacre. The cartoonists at the magazine were on their hit lists for drawing Mohammad. Two days later,
the Kouachis' friend Amedy Coulibaly killed four and wounded nine at the Hypercacher kosher market in Porte de Vincennes. He pledged
allegiance to ISIS. Coulibaly is also believed to have shot and wounded a jogger on Jan. 7, 2015, and shot two people on Jan. 8,
killing a policewoman.
The Real Lesson of the Paris
Attacks. [Scroll down] After the January attacks in Paris, there were large marches through the center
of Paris, and the phrase, "Je Suis Charlie," for a moment, seemed to be the hashtag or profile picture of everybody
on social media. But, of course, almost nobody was Charlie, because apart from a lot of people dwelling on Twitter and
Facebook under various virtual noms de guerre, very few people were keen to republish any cartoon of Mohammed or make
new Mohammed cartoons of their own. Sadly, a few months after the attacks, the remaining staff members at Charlie Hebdo
announced that they were not going to draw Mohammed any more. No one could blame them: as well as losing
most of their colleagues, it must have been exhausting to be among the only people still exercising a right that everyone
else was just pretending to defend on Twitter.
Charlie Hebdo Responds to
Paris Terror Attack: A Covert Plea for Guns. The famed French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo has published its take on the Paris
terror attacks. It would appear that this particular magazine cover is a clever plea for a French version of the Second Amendment. [...]
It's pretty sad that an ultra-leftist magazine is more conservative then Barack Obama.
John
Kerry Is a Disgrace. The top diplomat in the United States just publicly argued that because the victims at
Charlie Hebdo had spoken risqué words but the victims at the Bataclan had not, the violence against the former
was more comprehensible than the violence against the latter. Has he lost his mind?
John
Kerry Justifies Charlie Hebdo Slaughter. In remarks today [11/17/2015] in Paris, France, Secretary of State
John Kerry justified the terror attack earlier this year that targeted the magazine Charlie Hebdo in January. This latest
attack, by contrast, was different, said Kerry. "In the last days, obviously, that has been particularly put to the
test," Kerry said, according to a State Department transcript. "There's something different about what happened from Charlie
Hebdo, and I think everybody would feel that. There was a sort of particularized focus and perhaps even a legitimacy in terms
of — not a legitimacy, but a rationale that you could attach yourself to somehow and say, okay, they're really angry
because of this and that.["]
Kerry
in Paris: Charlie Hebdo Attack Had 'Rationale' to 'Aggrieve One Particular Sense of Wrong'. Secretary of State John Kerry
told employees at the U.S. Embassy in Paris this morning [11/17/2015] that Friday's attacks were more senseless than the Charlie Hebdo
assault because there was some "rationale" for slaughtering the staff of the magazine that drew Mohammad caricatures.
Yemen
Al Qaeda Leader Who Claimed Credit for Charlie Hebdo Attack Killed in U.S. Drone Strike. A
senior al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula leader who claimed the group's responsibility for the Charlie
Hebdo massacre and the murder of an American hostage during a botched raid in December has been killed
in a U.S. drone strike in Yemen, it was announced Thursday [5/7/2015].
Six
PEN Members Decline Gala After Award for Charlie Hebdo. The decision by PEN American
Center to give its annual Freedom of Expression Courage award to the French satirical newspaper
Charlie Hebdo has prompted six writers to withdraw as literary hosts at the group's annual gala on
May 5, adding a new twist to the continuing debate over the publication's status as a martyr
for free speech.
Murdered
Charlie Hebdo Staff Named 'International Islamophobe Of The Year'. Charlie Hebdo has
been named 2015 International Islamophobe of the year, despite many of its staff having been killed
by Jihadists in January. The annual 'award' was given by Islamic Human Rights Commission (IHRC), a
British group that claims to campaign against terrorism. According to the Muslim website 5Pillars
the award was given to Charlie Hebdo because of its "continual stoking of Islamophobic sentiment by
caricaturing Muslims as terrorists and ridiculing their beliefs."
Free
speech in Britain: Police tracking people who bought Charlie Hebdo. Wait a minute...
wasn't David Cameron at the front of the line for that Paris rally in support of Charlie Hebdo not
that long ago? I'm pretty sure that we were all supposed to be on the same page when it comes to the
whole free speech, satire is okay bandwagon. But if that's the case, why were the British police
tracking down the people who bought copies of the magazine when they put out that record setting edition?
Two
weeks after Zuckerberg said 'je suis Charlie,' Facebook begins censoring images of prophet Muhammad.
Only two weeks after Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg released a strongly worded #JeSuisCharlie statement on the
importance of free speech, Facebook has agreed to censor images of the prophet Muhammad in Turkey —
including the very type of image that precipitated the Charlie Hebdo attack. It's an illustration, perhaps,
of how extremely complicated and nuanced issues of online speech really are. It's also conclusive proof of
what many tech critics said of Zuckerberg's free-speech declaration at the time: Sweeping promises are all
well and good, but Facebook's record doesn't entirely back it up.
How France Grew
Its Own Terrorists. In the wake of the massacre of 17 people in Paris last week, some
have questioned the role that immigration played in bringing radical Islam to France. Some are even
calling for a moratorium on immigration to France from Muslim countries to avoid further terrorist attacks.
Although it's necessary to look to the history of immigration in France to understand how this happened, it's
wrong to think that changes to immigration policy now will make a difference. The damage has already been
done. The truth is, the men who launched these attacks in the name of Islam were French citizens.
They were born and educated in France.
Niger:
Death toll in pro-Islam protests against Charlie Hebdo cartoons mounts. At least 10
people are feared killed in Niger after scores of pro-Islam protesters took to the streets against
the cartoons published by the French satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo. On the second day of the
protests on Saturday [1/17/2015], five people were killed. The victims were either inside churches
or bars which were set ablaze by an angry mob. The previous day, five people were killed in the
city of Zinder after Friday prayers.
To
Call This Threat by Its Name. [French Foreign Minister Laurent] Fabius will not
describe as "Islamists" the terrorists who on Wednesday, Jan. 7, walked into the offices of the
newspaper Charlie Hebdo, right in the heart of Paris. Nor will he use "Islamic State" to describe
the radical Sunni group that now controls territory in Syria and Iraq. No reference can be made to
"Islamic fundamentalism," for fear that Islam and Islamism might get conflated. The terms "Daesh"
and "Daesh cutthroats" are to be favored instead, even though in Arabic "Daesh" means the very thing
to be hidden: "Islamic State." Let us call things by their rightful names, since the French
government seems reluctant to do so.
Muslims
and Free Speech. Should there be limits to free speech and expression? The issue is
now on the front
