Canada: Muslim found guilty of terror charges, eyed Canadian targets

Jul 11, 2014 3:14 pm By Robert Spencer

MisbahuddinAhmed“Crown lawyers said during the trial that Ahmed was a ‘committed jihadist’ with an eye on potential Canadian targets, pointing to a bag in his basement they alleged held bomb-making materials.” Where did Misbahuddin Ahmed learn this outrageous misunderstanding of the religion of peace? Why do so many Muslims misunderstand it in the same way? Why do no government officials in Canada or the U.S. show any curiosity about such questions?

“Misbahuddin Ahmed found guilty of 2 terrorism charges,” CBC News, July 11, 2014:

Former Ottawa hospital technician Misbahuddin Ahmed has been found guilty of two terrorism-related charges by a jury.

Ahmed, 30, had pleaded not guilty to conspiring to knowingly facilitate a terrorist activity, participation in the activities of a terrorist group, and possession of explosives with intent to do harm.

His eight-week trial began in mid-May and went to a jury on Tuesday. On Friday, the jury found him guilty of the first two charges but not guilty to the possession of explosives charge.

Ahmed will be sentenced on Sept. 15.

Crown lawyers said during the trial that Ahmed was a “committed jihadist” with an eye on potential Canadian targets, pointing to a bag in his basement they alleged held bomb-making materials.

Ahmed and his defence said during the trial that he was trying to stop a planned attack and was planning to destroy the contents of the bag.

    where did Misbahuddin Ahmed learn this outrageous misunderstanding of the religion of peace?…

    Definitely not from the Koran or his pedophile prophet….. M

      The sad CBC makes an apologetic news report for even considering jail and a guilty verdict in this terrorist case. WTF. Such a good family man. So was Osama bin and every other heinously perverse evil terrorist in history. If you think that was bad just wait until ,,gd forbid,,, a left wing liberal government ever gets back in power ,,, the CBC will be given a monopoly on news reporting.

    “he was trying to stop a planned attack”.
    Must be one of those ” moderate” Muslims who believe in the Kumbyar Koran and have dedicated their lives to protecting Western society from their brothers that have misunderstood Islam.

    Entrapment!
    /Screeching Leftist Harpies in many of these pre-detonation cases

    Knowing, as they should by now, the world is at least dimly aware of the jihad threat, how is it still so easy to get Muslims to attempt jihad attacks against civilian targets?

    It’s almost as if they view murder as virtuous and innocent people as legitimate targets. Almost. Of course true Islam is peaceful and to kill one person is to kill the whole world.

    LOL

      Of course, the verse really says, “Whoever kills another person, *except for villainy in the land*, it shall be as if he had killed the whole human race.

      The “villainy in the land” loophole gives considerable leeway to Islamic extremists. For groups like al-Qaeda or ISIS, simply being a non-Muslim or a supposedly heretic Muslim (that is, a Muslim who believes in loving their neighbor as themself, instead of murdering others), constitutes villainy in the land.

      However. “the whole human race” or “all Mankind” would also presumably include non-Muslims and “heretic Muslims” too. Haven’t the al-Qaeda and ISIS folks considered this?

        Confidentially from Kaffir to Kaffir:

        Not exactly. Mo has declared them to the descendents of pigs and apes.

        Simple Islamic logic: All non-Muslims are not human and therefore are not entitled to any human rights.

        So say the Qura’n and the Hadith but of course most Kaffirs do not know Arabic and even those who do cannot be trusted to translate honestly.

        In polite Arabic please remember:

        La Allah Illa YAHWE, uveMuhammad bin Sharmutta, bint Jinn RassoulShaitan.

    Ain’t Misbahuddin’, I’m savin’ jihad for you.

    I’m adding that smiling friendly photo to my gallery of “Smiling Faces” on my blog — pics of smiling friendly Muslims over the years found out to be mass-murderoud fanatics (i.e., found out to be normal mainstream garden-variety Muslims).

    • voegelinian says

      Jul 11, 2014 at 5:45 pm

      should be “mass-murderous” of course.

        There’s no need to keep correcting your typos; we get the point.

        • bettina says

          Jul 11, 2014 at 9:18 pm

          Leave voegel alone, Joe. In his or her scrupulous attention to what he writes, he’s an example to be emulated — not remonstrated for his conscientiousness, okay?

        • voegelinian says

          Jul 11, 2014 at 11:55 pm

          Jovial Joe must be unaware of how many thousands of people read Jihad Watch daily, with a high rate of new first-time readers. His idiotic and childish retort to me only makes sense if only he and his 4.5 buddies on JW are reading comments.

        • voegelinian says

          Jul 11, 2014 at 11:57 pm

          (And the 0.5 buddy is Philip Jihadski, to be overly generous…)

          I sometimes wonder whether to correct my typos or leave well enough alone.
          Both arguments have merit.

          If there were an option to a typo correction link or a hover over feature that would enable typo correction display and improve the comments flow while allowing corrections to be offered if needed.

          voeg, voeg, voeg
          It is no big deal to make a few typos but calling Jovial Joe childish and then throwing out a comment about 4.5 and 0.5 at PJ. immediately after, well …
          Come on now,
          let us all use the following example to behave like grown adults

    A smiling, bearded Muslim can’t help but be a kinda’ repulsive image.

    Am I generalizing here? You bet I am. Just as I would have done with Nazis and Marxists. After all, just because you’re generalizing doesn’t mean you’re wrong.

    Ain’t wrong here, now am I?

      “A smiling, bearded Muslim can’t help but be a kinda’ repulsive image.”

      That’s the first thing that struck me. The Canadian media, without exception, has used his clean shaven pic for all their stories. This is the first time I’ve seen him wearing his finest jihadi pubic-hair face.

      Gee, I wonder why …

  7. bettina says

    Jul 11, 2014 at 9:24 pm

    Furthermore, voegel’s “mass-murderoud” typo has a certain arab-sounding je ne sais quoi, doesn’t it… you can almost smell the swarthy allahu akhbaring muslim murderoud from here…

  8. Jay Boo says

    Jul 12, 2014 at 12:14 am

    I kinda like a variation of that using the letter ‘i’ to end up with:
    mass-murderoid

    It has a better sound effect.

    • Jay Boo says

      Jul 12, 2014 at 12:17 am

      above comment @bettina

      BTW
      bettina I hope no one fusses at me about this follow-up correction.

        JB
        I hope nobody fusses at you either.
        Lets just concentrate all our efforts at the global Jihad against Islam.
        I believe that to be the fundamental objective of JW.

        • Jay Boo says

          Jul 12, 2014 at 2:48 am

          Agreed
          The other stuff is minor

        • Jovial Joe says

          Jul 12, 2014 at 2:59 am

          Agreed. That’s why I felt compelled to bring up Voeg on his incessant corrections which is indicative of someone more interested in proving his literary credentials than combatting jihad. It doesn’t need repeating though. End of.

        • Jovial Joe says

          Jul 12, 2014 at 3:05 am

          Agreed. That’s why I pulled up Voeg on his incessant corrections which indicate to me someone more interested in flashing his literary credentials than in combatting jihad. Point doesn’t need repeating though. End of.

    A clear case of Islamofauxbia, everybody knows Muslims do not do this kind of thing, not ‘real muslims’ anyway. As our liberals and govts. keep telling us the jihadists are not ‘real muslims’ even though they impose strict sharia everywhere they hold sway and constantly intimidate and destroy anything not Islamic or not Islamic enough.
    Just keep reciting. “Not real Muslims” to yourself all day, that will keep you from falling prey to Islamofauxbia.
