Silvio K. would appear to be a convert to Islam. How is it that he became a Salafist when as we all know, the overwhelming majority of Muslims in the West reject all “extremism” and abhor the idea that Islam mandates any kind of violence. So how did Silvio go from being an Infidel to a misunderstander of Islam? Will German authorities wave away this question by blandly noting that he was “radicalized on the Internet”?
“Salafist threatens US nuclear facility,” The Local, August 7, 2014:
German security services said on Thursday the risks posed by Islamist terrorists in the country remained “high” after one extremist threatened to bomb an American nuclear facility in the west of Germany.
The Federal Criminal Office said they were aware of a threat made by German Salafist Silvio K., who is believed to be fighting in Syria for ISIS.
But, the office, said there were “no indications of concrete attack plans or an impending attack”.
Silvio has reportedly threatened to attack the Büchel facility near the western city of Koblenz, where US nuclear weapons are stored.
The Westdeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung (WAZ) reported on Thursday that security around the facility had been stepped up.
“We are working closely with the German authorities,” a spokesman for the US embassy in Berlin said.
An international arrest warrant was put out for Silvio in July.
Silvio was born in Saxony and lived in Essen and then Solingen in North Rhine-Westphalia. He is thought to be a member of the banned German Salafist group Millatu Ibrahim.
“He is a star of the Jihad scene and has between 5,000 to 10,000 Salafist supporters in Germany,” terror export Guido Steinberg told WAZ.

Notice he has 5,000 to 10,000 followers in Germany only. I’m sure other fighters have their own admirers in other European capitals. But, but we’re told that most Muslims are moderate, and that radicals only make 1% of Muslims. Really?

The 15,000,000 strong army of the tiny minority of extremists, based on lowball estimates.
It sure will be ‘intersting’ to see how many Saudi troops stay loyal to the House of Saud when the shooting starts there. But not as interesting as possible Pakistani-to-IS technology transfers. The IS supoosedly has billions in hard currency in addition to priceless artifacts under the ground it controls.

It is a well established fact that converts to any religion, including Christianity
are always the most ‘enthusiastic’. I suppose it is because they want to show
the rest how great a Muslim/ Christian etc. they are. So they, in the case of Islam are the ones likely to be jihadis. It is rare for a Christian convert to immediately start looking for people to kill!

that’s a great video, isn’t it?
It cheers one up, to watch it, and see the deluded Jew-haters and servants of Jihad getting 1/ outnumbered, massively and 2/ drowned out.
Put to rout: by people who are *so* much more interesting and fun to watch and listen to!

What a ghastly looking crew! Can’t you just smell the peace?

Wipe isis out, then deport every muslim and leftist who supports them and hitler. If they love them so much they can die with them.

There are so many wrongs in this sentence it is hilarious.
What does ISIS have to do with leftists and Hitler ???

So there are 5,000 to 10,000 Salafist supporters in Germany, eh?
Here’s an idea.
How about Germany rounds up the lot and interns them, since they are manifestly a public menace, with a view to removal of citizenship / residency/ “refugee” status and …deportation or (in the case of infidel-background converts to Islam) imposition of Lifelong Exile.
Then Germany lets the UNHCR know that there will be room in Germany, soon, for 10,000 Iraqi Christians, prioritising those from Qaraqosh and Mosul. They make the arrangements (including troops for guarding and protecting the refugees as they gather at whatever exit points are identified and secured, and people from Barnabas Fund to help with interpreting and processing the refugees) and they bring them out: Operation Magic Carpet, or Operation Saint Michael and Saint George, or whatever one might want to call it.
And the moment those Christians are safely unloaded on the tarmac in Germany, to be settled in via the churches, Catholic and other…then the 10 000 Salafists get the boot, to whichever Islamic hellholes they or their parents came from, or that they have been professing to admire and making plans to visit for an Excellent Jihad Adventure. Out they go.
Population exchange, and cheap at the price: Germany would gain 10,000 proven non-Muslims who would be pathetically grateful, who share a religion – Christianity – with not a few Germans, who would be willing to get educated and get work, and would intermarry with the locals and would NOT hatch mass-murderous plots…and it would get rid of 10 000 dangerous mad dogs.

Sorry to say, but if the salafist truly bomb something in germany, may be beheading on the street, suicide vest bomber, i think germany and many similar country are deserve to it..the country was imported them, bringing home and give facility, some of them even richer. So why germany should be worry now?
