Gokmen Tanis: “I’m doing this for my religion.”
Pope Francis and a host of Western non-Muslim political leaders: “No, you’re not. You misunderstand your peaceful religion.”
Dutch prosecutors: “He may be a terrorist, but we’re sure he is mentally ill: ‘He will shortly be admitted to a specialist center to undergo psychological observation.’ After all, what sane person would do such a thing? And we will keep on trying to figure out his motive: ‘Prosecutors said their investigation will continue in an effort to determine what exactly happened in and around the tram, Tanis’ motive…'”
Gokmen Tanis: “I’m doing this for my religion.”
“Suspect in deadly Dutch tram shooting appears in court,” by Mike Corder, Associated Press, July 1, 2019:
BRUSSELS (AP) — Dutch prosecutors said Monday they have a “strong indication” that a man accused of fatally shooting four passengers on a tram in the central city of Utrecht in March had a “terrorist motive.”
In a written statement following a preliminary hearing at Utrecht District Court, prosecutors said 37-year-old suspect Gokmen Tanis left a handwritten letter in a getaway car that said in Dutch: “I’m doing this for my religion, you kill Muslims and you want to take our religion away from us, but you won’t succeed. Allah is great.”…
Prosecutors added that their suspicions of a terrorist motive also stem from two statements Tanis gave to an investigating judge before refusing to answer any further questions, and from the fact that he opened fire on people he did not know in a tram….
He will shortly be admitted to a specialist center to undergo psychological observation, prosecutors said. His trial is expected to start early next year.
Prosecutors said their investigation will continue in an effort to determine what exactly happened in and around the tram, Tanis’ motive and the possible involvement of others, though they added that he said he acted alone….

I guess the Dutch are a little slow on the uptake. That’s probably why they’re still wearing wooden shoes.

MUSLIM TERRORIST: “We did this because our Islamic holy texts exhort us to do it.”
WESTERN LEADERS: “No, you didn’t.”
MUSLIM TERRORIST: “Wait, what…yes, we did.”
WESTERN LEADERS: “No, this has nothing to do with the Muslim religion. You guys are just using religion as a front for social and geopolitical reasons.”
MUSLIM TERRORIST: “WHAT? Did you even read our official statement? We provide explicit Quranic justification and documentation. This IS jihad: a holy crusade against pagans, blasphemers, and disbelievers.”
WESTERN LEADERS: “No, this is definitely NOT a Muslim thing. You guys are not true Muslims, and you defame a great religion by saying so.”
MUSLIM TERRORIST: “HUH? Who are you to tell us we’re not true Muslims? Islam is literally at the core of everything we do, and we have implemented the truest, most literal and honest interpretation of its founding texts. It is our very reason for being.”
WESTERN LEADERS: Nope, we created you. It’s our fault. We installed a social and economic system that alienates and disenfranchises you, and that’s why you did this. We are sorry.”
MUSLIM TERRORIST: “What? Why are you apologizing? We just murdered your citizens mercilessly in the streets. We targeted unwitting civilians – ‘disenfranchisement’ doesn’t even enter into it.”
WESTERN LEADERS: “Listen it’s our fault. We don’t blame you for feeling unwelcome and lashing out.”
MUSLIM TERRORIST: Seriously, stop taking credit for this. We worked really hard to pull this off, and we’re not going to let you take it away from us.”
WESTERN LEADERS: “No way. We nourished your extremism and therefore we must accept full blame.
MUSLIM TERRORIST: SHEESH…ALLAH ABOVE! How many more of your people do we have to slaughter around here to finally get our message across that we are doing this in the name of Islam?”

A prosecutor who had to try a case where a young woman murdered another who had been kind to her, had been her friend when she had no one else, said that people like her had “something missing up there” and pointed to his own head to illustrate. But, he did his best to prosecute her and send her away for first degree murder.
The prosecutors in this case have said the evidence “indicated” it is “terrorism,” at least in motive and one of the reasons being “he opened fire on people he did not know in a tram”
Perhaps they feel like the prosecutor in the case mentioned above in my comment …people like that have to be “missing something” up there.
moslims are “missing something” good and have replaced it with pure satanic evil.
James says
The elites do not want to admit mass Muslim immigration is a bad thing so they try to marginalize Islamic terrorists from the mass of Muslims. Theey are not Muslim terrorists but deranged persons. But how many deranged Christians go around killing randomly in the name of Christ? Really not very many.

When they tell you why they are doing things, it’s a real good idea to listen to what they are saying.
James Lincoln says
From the feature article,
“He may be a terrorist, but we’re sure he is mentally ill…”
Fact: A terrorist is not necessarily mentally ill. They are pure evil – but not necessarily mentally ill.
In fact, most mentally ill people do not commit crimes.
Angemon says
Not that this has anything to do with islam… /sarc. off
Paul J says
Trying to take their religion away, ie not letting them muslims. What a coincidence; that was the very same excuse ole Mad Mo used to justify the slaughter of an unarmed caravan during the forbidden months. His army’s first sucessful raid after 7 attempts. The rot has got worse ever since.

Netherlands: Muslim who shot four passengers on tram wrote: “I’m doing this for my religion…Allahu akbar”
………………….
Yet no doubt the Dutch authorities are still baffled as to motive…
