Islamic jihadists call for jihad attack on US Open

Jul 16, 2014 4:46 pm By Robert Spencer

arthur-ashe-stadiumAl Qaeda has long called for jihad attacks on sporting events, as they feature large concentrations of Infidels, most of all of whom are having a good time — a perfect place to “strike terror into the hearts of the enemies of Allah” (Qur’an 8:60). The Boston Marathon was just the beginning — especially considering the denial and willful ignorance of law enforcement agencies.

“Police: Al Qaeda Magazine Suggesting Attack On US Open,” CBSNew York, July 16, 2014:

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — The US Open Tennis Championship appears on a wish list of terror targets in an al Qaeda magazine, an NYPD official said Wednesday.

In a briefing for New York City’s private security community, Rebecca Weiner, the NYPD’s director of intelligence analysis, warned that Inspire magazine is instructing would-be terrorists on how to make bombs and where to set them off, WCBS 880′s Marla Diamond reported.

The magazine lists targets in Washington, D.C.; Virginia; and New York — including the US Open, which begins Aug. 25 in Flushing Meadows, Queens.

Weiner stressed that police are not aware of any specific threats against the tournament.

“We will ensure that the suggestions in this magazine remain hypothetical,” she said. “Nonetheless, we would be remiss not to take note of it as this event comes up.”…

    Having been to the U.S. Open a number of times, as well as Citifield and other stadiums around the NYC area, despite our new mayor and his commie/islamist sympathies, the NYPD will be on HIGH ALERT and vigilant, as well as my fellow New Yorkers. Hopefully, nothing will happen.

    Greetings:

    This is a tough one for me. A sport in which you can’t bump into your competitors and in which women win for 3 sets what men have to play 5 sets to garner, well, I just know. If we have to give up a sports event, this might be a good one to start with.

      Who’s talking about giving up anything?

        I couldn’t agree more, Bettina.

        While I’m sure 11B40 was joking here, I—like you—don’t plan on giving up *anything* to these damn savages.

    Islamic jihadists call for jihad attack on US Open
    …………………………….

    And why the hell not? Muslims have already called for attacks on the World Cup, caused the US to pull out of the Ryder Cup match in Britain after 9/11, and have actually murdered innocent people at the Olympics and the Boston Marathon.

    Then there was the Jihad terror attack on the Sri Lankan Cricket team in Pakistan in 2009, where eight people were killed and six injured. And this wasn’t the first time Infidel players had been targeted in Pakistan; in 2002 a bomb went off at the New Zealand team’s hotel—while no players were harmed, their physiotherapist was murdered in the blast, along with eleven members of the French navy and two unlucky Pakistanis. And in 2008 the Dakkar Rally car race was canceled after Al Qaida murdered a French family in Mauritania.

    Besides the threat of murdering happy Infidels gathered in one place, I believe another reason Jihadists target sporting events is because a competition that doesn’t involve savage blood-letting is profoundly un-Islamic.

    If only Jihad called for Muslims to kill themselves when no one else was around

    Muslim fanatics must come to know that no matter how many they kill, reality still shows:

    Islam is not a religion
