Montreal: Muslim arrested for terrorist threats against police

“Man arrested for terrorist threats against Montreal police,” QMI Agency, December 22, 2014 (thanks to Pamela Geller):

MONTREAL – A 21-year-old man is facing terrorism-related charges after threatening to attack four police Montreal police.

Jeffrey Labelle was arraigned Monday and will return to court Tuesday.

He had been arrested on Friday after the discovery of handwritten notes specifying which precincts would be attacked.

The threat came just two days after two police officers in New York City were murdered in their squad car by a gunman.

Those deaths have given a greater sense of urgency to ensuring police here in Canada stay safe, according to Yves Francoeur, head of the Montreal police union.

“Our people must be vigilant at all times,” he told TVA, QMI Agency’s sister TV station. “We see what is happening in Canada. Toronto has already secured their stations a few years ago and Ottawa is in the process of doing so.”

Police were alerted to the threat by relatives of Labelle, who had noted a change in his way of dressing and his words, according to a spokesman for the Montreal police. Labelle was a recent convert to Islam.

According to his grandmother, however, he was not dangerous.

“He wasn’t that kind of boy,” Sylvie Labelle told TVA. “When he converted, he found inner peace. He wanted to take care of his mother and be the man of the house.”

The grandmother did note that Labelle had carried a machete, but said she believed it was to protect his mother from a violent person.

She added that she believes she knows which family member had turned Labelle in out of revenge.

    Maybe…just possibly…this young warrior was listening to his Caliph in Syria who ordered him to attack kafirs with knives, cars, guns or even stones.

      Or maybe he was listening to the Caliph in America who says ” there is no future for those who insult the Prophet .”

    Let’s see, recently we’ve had a muslim attacking gendarmesin France, a muslim killing two NYPD officers, and now a muslim threating to attack four members of the Montreal police (Canada).

    Hmmm, I wonder what’s the common element in all those “incidents”…

    Canada may have its problems but it doesn’t need Islam to add to them. With Islam also come the fruits of that religion such as Islam terrorism that come in different forms such a shootings, bombing. With is comes its other fruits being, riots, rapes, and of course the cruel and vicious actions of “honor killings.” Jesus taught ” By their fruit you will recognize them.” Matthew 7:20. [N.I.V.]

    He was just a peaceful supporter of the Satanic State.

    Grandmaman “thinks she knows who turned him in out of revenge.”

    Seems her only problem with the whole thing is that he was caught. Oh the blindness of many mothers and grandmothers to these rotten boys! The overwhelming majority of Quebecois are hostile to Islam, but Montreal is more cosmo, more “tolerant” and “open-minded” than the rest of the province (the city is home to more than 220,000 muslims).
