Florida Muslim arrested after shouting "Allahu akbar" and "I am going to blow this place up"

He didn't turn out to have a bomb, but did terrorism task force officials commit "Islamophobia" and "racial profiling" by taking his shouts seriously? In any case, maybe he is just crazy, or maybe he was doing his best to "strike terror into the hearts of the enemies, of Allah" (Qur'an 8:60).

"Man arrested for making bomb threat," from The Associated Press (thanks to ocean guy):

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Authorities from a terrorism task force closed off a roughly 10-block downtown area on Sunday after a man made a bomb threat.

Youssef Bouchlarhem made threatening statements in both Arabic and English saying, "Allah is great," "I am going to blow this place up" and "Kill Me, according to Micheal Edwards, director of the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office Department of Investigations and Homeland Security.

A witness called authorities around 11:45 a.m. to report a man who was behaving strangely in the middle of the street.

When officers arrived and attempted to detain Bouchlarhem, he physically resisted and had to be restrained, Edwards said.

Bouchlarhem, 34, was charged with making a false report about planting a bomb and resisting police. He is scheduled to appear in court Monday.

It was not immediately known if he had legal representation.

Authorities searched Bouchlarhem's home, but did not find any evidence of bomb making materials, Edwards said.

And quite right too. Can't a member of the Ummah have a Peaceful Inner Struggle&trade these days without getting into infidel trouble?

And why exactly doesn't this constitute a terrorist act?

Ocean Guy's blog entry says the guy he was playing some kind of Arabic music. Well, alrighty-then - obviously he's a "moderate Muslim", and not such a threat?

Jacksonville, FL authorities are not considering this a terrorist act? Got to be kidding.

And why exactly doesn't this constitute a terrorist act?

Because he really didnt mean it?


Who knows? But you know we live in a politically correct world so we arent allowed to label jihad as a terrorist act.

In any case, maybe he is just crazy, or maybe he was doing his best to "strike terror into the hearts of the enemies, of Allah" (Qur'an 8:60).


Or maybe, he is part of the legal jihad where does this sort of thing, gets himself arrested, and plays the muslim-victim-card with CAIR's help then attempts to sue those people who called the police.

At a minimum, he has tied up the courts which should be prosecuting criminals anyway; at maximum, he could help destory silence future witnesses of terrorism in the making.

hate this network!

, he could help ------- silence future witnesses of terrorism in the making.

Everything is twisted. Obviously they are the "haters" killing people and trying to kill people but nothing happens to 'em. Then, an American somewhere steps on a Koran and he's a racist and a bigot and a hater and charged with a hate crime!

Am I wrong?

From now on, and I mean it, whenever I hear anyone shouting Lord Jesus or Hallijuah, I will call 911, or homeland security.

Too bad we won't find out where he's from and send him back. If he's from the United States... we need to start thinking about what we're going to do with such persons. They are most likely as 'fixable' as pedophiles.

Oh for cryin out loud.....someone get the guy an exorcist.

You know, like the flying Imams, maybe this guy wanted to be a 'martyr, (maybe he hoped to be shot) so that it could be discovered that he was unarmed, so that the muslims could moan even more about profiling.

As for a solution to the radicals (like those that protest in London). They need to be taken from their homes in the middle of the night and dropped somewhere in the middle of the desert in the ME. They could then be told to "pray to their moon god for him to supply their water".

No one need ever know.

Progressive - when we come to a point where Evangelical Christians are saying 'Yahweh is greatest' 'I'm going to blow this place up' and 'Kill me' then yes, we should arrest them and get them off the streets.

But until Christian types begin to threaten society in the name of Jesus, the Father and the Holy Spirit... we don't have a comparison for you to use.

...made threatening statements in both Arabic and English saying, "Allah is great," "I am going to blow this place up" and "Kill Me”...

a man who was behaving strangely in the middle of the street.

If he also had his tee-shirt pulled over his head, wandering around asking ‘are you threatening me?’ and stating ‘I am the great Cornholio’, there is an easy fix. Keep the man away from candy.

From now on, and I mean it, whenever I hear anyone shouting Lord Jesus or Hallijuah, I will call 911, or homeland security.

Go right ahead, at least you won't have to worry about something exploding nearby or airline pilots getting their throats slit they way you would if they had shouted "allahu akbar."

Nor, will you have ANY fears of being sued by Christians for harrassment and intimidation because CAIR and the ACLU ONLY work on behalf of muslims in these matters.

So go ahead and make that call -- nothing will happen to you; maybe with CAIR's help, you can successfully sue the Chirstians who dared to utter the name "Lord Jesus" in public; this is America, after all.

It's amazing your brain has the power to make your legs move. Honestly.

I fail to see how there is any comparison here. Please point us to the last time someone blew themselves up inside a nightclub, cafe, bus, airport or public building and did it in the name of Jesus, Mickey Mouse or any other entity other than Allah.

I'll await your reply.

"He is scheduled to appear in court Monday."

This could become another incident of, "we had him in custody, but..."

This skell shopuld be kept in a cell until we can ship him to some God foresaken, third world Hell.

Nah. Just take his type to the middle of a ME desert, drop him off and tell him to pray to his moon god for water.

No one need ever know where he went.

Another paranoid schizophrenic for Allah. 'Allahphrenia', a fractured mentality due to contact with the demon Allah. The symptoms are shouting Allahu Akbar, making threats, physically and verbally assaultive, hostile and uncooperative, they also have a strong desire to blow thing's up.
Often Allahphrenics take their psychotic energy to the street. When many Allahphrenics gather together in his name, and have a spectacular, public group Allahgasm, it is a symptom of collective psychosis. The west call's this, a riot, disturbance, protest, or demonstration, but we know what it really is, Allahphrenia. Those afflicted with this insidious condition are now loosely refered to as 'Asians'.
I am sure that poor Youssef is an 'Asian', even if he is not. So keep an eye on those 'Asian's'. Not all Asians are muslims, but all muslims are 'Asian's'. Most non muslim Asians are fisherman...fishermen never riot, they dont shout Allahu Akbar, while fishing, and they dont blow anything up. Asian fishermen are not the problem. so dont blame them. Muslim Asians dont catch fish, their idea of a job is to stay on welfare as long as possible. Individual, and collective Allahphrenia, and a regular job, cancell each other out. So the Allahphreniac 'Asians', like 'rage boy', have no other job but to take it to the streets for Allah. I bet niether 'rage boy', nor Youssef, have ever caught a fish in their live's. Allah never taught them how to bait a hook...

Youssef Bouchlarhem forgets that Americans are keeping an eye on him and that he knew he was going to get into trouble.

I should have added, American non-Muslims.

Foehammer to progressive:

Priceless.

If he adds that he will blow shit up, by all means. But how many Christians evoke God before they blow stuff up or lop off heads like your Muslim friends do?

Foehammer - no feed troll :)

This gentleman should receive whatever the current penalty is for falsely shouting, "Fire!"
in a crowded theater.

The only way to defeat a terror movement is by serious action.

Can we expect any here ?

Only Muslims kill people in the name of their "God," "Allah," who, by the way, doesn't exist, progressive!

Now, go and whack your head 5 times a day to a figment of your imagination! Hey - Knock yourself out, literally!

It was not immediately known if he had legal representation.
Oh, for Pete's sake. Let's make sure he's all "lawyered up".

Go right ahead. You might make some money though, if instead you called a Muslim lawyer and asked to sue that person for "emotional pain" for making you feel uncomfortable. Try the ACLU.

And why exactly doesn't this constitute a terrorist act?

Posted by: Foehammer

Why, he's mentally ill of course. He LOVES America. He just has a desire to commit suicide by cop. Why? Because Islam doesn't allow suicide (let the cop do it and make him a martyr) and because we have made him feel unwelcome. Another reason is that he's not a Muslim and is deliberately trying to incite violence against the entire Muslim community. CAIR can give you either story, depending on their mood at the time.

This is an act of terrorism because he was "striking terror into their hearts". He should be deported, jailed or in an internment camp. I betcha CAIR will defend this Muslim scum...

And yet another stunning example of muslim intellect. Benny Hill theme song please. Deport.

hey foehammer -

i guess REgressive's lucky the brain stem functions automatically, assuming no injury or damage of course.

so, REgressive -

how's your swallowing?

(hint: you'll have to know biology to get that one.)

From now on, and I mean it, whenever I hear anyone shouting Lord Jesus or Hallijuah, I will call 911, or homeland security.

Progressive be a funny Muhammadan!!!!!

I live in Jacksonville. Guess what. Not a peep from the local media about this incident. And this is a relatively conservative town with a huge military population.

i also live in jacksonville.....this is an odd event. It happened early on a sunday morning...at a time when downtown jacksonville is pretty empty. My guess is that this guy was still in downtown from the night before...he was probably drunk or hungover from the night before?

anyway..i saw it posted on several jacksonville news sites. If this guy was just fooling around he deserves what he got. These are not times to be shouting "allah akbar" and making bomb threats no matter where you live. i heard his bail was set at $700,000...good luck with that one. Hope it was worth it.

sudden jihad syndrome? seems like the terrorists are getting sloppy....no bomb found...bombs in london not going off..driving lit cars into airport barracades? are these guys stupid? dumb? or both? we are all getting sick of this BS! if you don't like living in a free country...please feel free to move back to your oppressive country of origin.

thanks for posting the info on this strange event.

Progressive, you forgot to read the story before you commented on it and you forgot to blame the man's arrest on the JOOZ and the occupation of Palestine. You're just being way too lazy in your bigotry today.

are these guys stupid? dumb? or both

infidel13,

How long will it take for the Progressives of the world to claim the failure of these bombs to detonate is proof that Muslims didn't put them together? Muslims want to kill. Western governments only want to scare.

I can hear it now: it was an inside job.

Maybe the question should be: Are WE that stupid that we'd let this continue?

Since 9-11, We in the U.S. don't have terrorist acts - we simply don't. This must be true, because I heard a network talking head say so this morning in a discussion of the recent British unpleasantness. I guess that Egyptian gent at the El-Al counter in L.A. a few years back was simply angered by poor customer service. Likewise, Muhammad (errr... "Smith" and Malvo(the D.C. Beltway snipers) were merely disgruntled motorists with an unusual hobby. sort of like the junior jihadi in Salt Lake City did not really mean to shoot up that mall, nor did sudden jihad syndrome play a role in the movie theater murder in Pikesville, Maryland a while back that was completely ignored by all but local media. Kinda reminds you of "distubed" driving incidents in Chapel Hill and California when "confused" believers in a specific religion engaged in un-safe motoring. I'm sure the list goes on...

"Damn, even in my own hometown. Back in the 70's, if this guys would have done that, tons of Lynyrd Skynyrd fans (from Jax) would have beat the crap out of that guy. Thus, these guys tended not to do things like this. Hmmmmmmm......... Think this would work today?"

It wouldn't work today, boxter. They'd send the guys that beat the crap out of him to jail, and Mr. Bouchlarhem would be inducted into the Rodney King hall of fame as a victim if Islamohobic brutality.

Probably just really wanted a Clark bar.

Bad.

Australian authorities have arrested a local man while boarding a flight for Singapore (to escape no doubt). He is linked to the U.K. conspiracy by cell phone records/intercepts probably.

People pop up shouting "Allah is great" and "I am going to blow this place up". All the time these days, all over the place.

To have such thoughts is propably a lot more common than anyone would like to think -- if only because people (of a certain disposition) see it on the news or on the net -- and they wonder, hmmm... what would that be like?

This time the neighbors were lucky. Being a nutbag loser, he was just spouting what was in his head.

But how many, marginally more competent losers are thinking the same thing, but not shouting about it?

being from jacksonville i know what you mean brother....i mean if this guy would have been naked downtown shouting "play some friggin skyyynarrd!" he would'nt be in jail...in fact he probably would have been mobbed by topless groupies just wanting that freebird solo to keep goin and goin....but obviously this guy's idea of groupies involves 72 burka clad virgins yelling "play some friggin YOUSEF ISLAM, man."

if this happened in a famous amos...that poor man would have to be wheeled to the ER...don't mess with skynard in famous amos in jacksonville!!!

Oh, so that's your problem.

"JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Authorities from a terrorism task force closed off a roughly 10-block downtown area on Sunday after a man made a bomb threat. "


....for those out there familiar with downtown Jacksonville Florida, know that it is ringed with primarily black residents...I would suspect this nutcase is probably a black Muslim convert terrorist wannabee...you have seen the type, scraggly beard, flowing Muslim clothing and a beanie cap, long fingernails, and an attitude against white folks...Blacks become Muslims primarily because Islam is a perfect religion for those who hate....

I could be wrong...but Islam is for losers....
