No surprise here. Even if the Islamic State wasn’t directly involved, the jihad shooting in Ottawa is just the kind of thing its leaders want to see on a regular basis in Canada, the U.S., the U.K. and Western Europe. And given the weakness, fecklessness and denial of most Western leaders, they will probably get their wish.
“Islamic State Sympathizers Cheer Canada Shooting,” by Adam Kredo, Washington Free Beacon, October 23, 2014:
Prominent Islamic State (IS, ISIL, or ISIS) cheerleaders on Twitter celebrated the fatal shooting of a Canadian soldier Wednesday, hailing it as just retribution for the country’s decision to join the fight against the Middle Eastern terror group. While it remained unclear late Wednesday what the motivation of the gunman—identified as Canadian-born Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, 32—was, IS backers wasted no time in praising his murder of the soldier and subsequent shooting at Canada’s parliament. Multiple Twitter users known for their pro-jihadist rhetoric celebrated the violent attack and warned that IS will wage war on any country that opposes it. “My sympathy goes out to all the victims by Canadian F16s. They themselves have brought the war home!” one user identifying himself as Abu Zarqawi tweeted shortly after the attack.
The tweet, like others praising the murder, was retweeted many times by others. Another IS backer identifying himself as Muthanna al-Kanadi was “laughing out loud” over the deadly attack. “Another Shooting in Canada,” al-Kanadi wrote. “This time inside the Pariliament [sic] building…and they wanted to bomb Iraq and Syriaa [sic]… lolllll [laughing out loud],” he tweeted.

Yet another pro-IS Twitter user who identifies himself as Abu Talha Al Muhajir and claims to be “amongst the Islamists in Sham,” or the Islamic State, said that attack was “expected.” “After Canada decided to Bomb & murder muslims, Supposedly just few bullets shook all of #Canada. Expected wasn’t it?” Muhajir tweeted. The Canadian Parliament’s decision to join the U.S. and other countries in the battle against IS sparked the attack, some claimed. “Oct 7: Canadian MPs [Members of Parliament] voted to bomb #IS, Oct 22: Attack on Parliament,” tweeted another IS sympathizer named “mujahid” who included the hashtags, “Ottowa” and “Canada.”

Islamic vanity decorates Islam’s spiritual meaninglessness while chained to its worst nemesis, ‘the nagging awareness of Islam’s eternal Emptiness’.

Reports say his father’s name is Bulgasem Zehaf. Would explain a lot.
Nemesis says
OK, so Canada is at peace, but isn’t the fact that the weapon of the soldier guarding the War Memorial WASN’T EVEN LOADED a perfect metaphor of just how blindly the West stumbles into its next war?

Wow only pure evil would dance on the graves of the innocent …

Some years back, I remember seeing a huge protest in Gaza. A long street was packed with screaming, Kalashnikov wielding palistinians screaming “Death to Israel.” It looked like a million or more. I commented at the time (to the horror of my listeners) that they were very lucky that I wasn’t head of the IDF. That street would have quickly become a lake of fire.
Dealing with these people is like getting in a pen to fight a rabid animal and saying “Okay, now here are the rules.”
Kathy Brown, Esq. says
That’s true, except for likening Muslims to an animal. Even a rabid one.
We don’t want to insult the animal. But then: Animals only act like that when they’re ‘compelled’ to, so to say, by a ravaging disease.
Muslims-supposedly human beings (!?)- freely choose this evil. And that evil is their only joy.
UnEasyOne says
Rabies/islam. That’s the disease.

Now that I can get behind. Thanks Un.

Anyone found cheering and happy about the killings in Canada or Israel or New York, should be rounded up and deported immediately!!!!! Nothing more is needed to know if you are against the United States or any othe sovereign nation that is not islamic you need to be gone from the U.S. plain and simple. We cannot continue to let the enemy live among us. It is too dangerous a time. These peoplehate us and we open our door and say come in, what is wrong with us??? If a man came to your house and he said I am goinf to steal all your things and kill you, would you say no need to break a window here let me make you a key so you can come whenever you want to????? That is what we are doing, we are knowing allowing people who want to kill us right in the front door!!!!!!
