Canada: Muslim arrested after plotting to bomb U.S. consulate in Toronto

“ISIS sympathizer arrested after plotting to bomb U.S. consulate in Toronto: CBSA,” by Stewart Bell, The National Post, March 11, 2015 (thanks to Pamela Geller):

TORONTO — A Pakistani man arrested by immigration officials this week is an ISIS supporter who had plotted to bomb financial buildings and the U.S. consulate in Toronto, the Canada Border Service Agency alleged at a hearing Wednesday.

Jahanzeb Malik, who came to Canada as a student in 2004, told an undercover police officer he had attended training camps in Libya and wanted to build an explosive device to conduct attacks in Toronto, the CBSA said.

Believing the undercover officer was a veteran of combat in Bosnia, he attempted to recruit him by showing him ISIS beheading videos and encouraging him to watch the lectures of al Qaida figure Anwar Al-Awlaki.

He was arrested on Monday following what the CBSA called a “lengthy investigation” by the RCMP Integrated National Security Enforcement Team in Toronto. He faces no criminal charges at this point but is being deported.

The planning was elaborate, including discussing with the undercover officer the video message they would leave behind in order to inspire others

Had the man he attempted to recruit not been an undercover officer, “mass destruction and possible loss of life would have been the result,” CBSA officer Jessica Lourenco told the Immigration and Refugee Board.

“He indicated his support of the attackers in Paris,” she said, referring to the deadly attack on the office of the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo.

“The planning was elaborate, including discussing with the undercover officer the video message they would leave behind in order to inspire others,” Lourenco said.

Since arriving in Canada, Mr. Malik made several trips abroad that the government has been unable to explain. He became a landed immigrant in 2009 after he was sponsored by his wife, from whom he is now separated. He has been arrested several times for fraud and violent crimes.

The government is attempting to deport him on the grounds he is a security threat. The hearing in Toronto, which occurred under tight security, was to determine whether he should be detained while Ottawa tries to deport him.

He was ordered detained….

    “Striving to serve Allah by giving him what he wants most: destruction.”

    Yes, because Allah is the Baal of the old Testament, one of the many names of Satan.
    The only thing satiates the Allah/Baal of Islam is death and destruction.
    That’s why Muslims rape women and children, burn, crucify, bury alive, torture and mutilate other human beings. Their Allah/Baal God demands blood and human sacrifices and there is no shortage of Muslims eager to appease their Satanic master by giving him what He wants.

    Why didn’t we stop using oil and switch to solar energy decades ago? And why, for that matter, aren’t the Islamic countries doing it now? If nobody was using oil today’s mess wouldn’t exist.

      “stop using their oil” A better thing would be to destroy their oil production, oil fields, refineries, pipelines etc. There would be so much smoke from the burning oil that it would block out the sun for no telling how long. But I’m afraid the pollution might reach other areas.

    ‘Pakistani man’
    ”Came to Canada and stayed on after 2004′.
    Canada is sounding more and more like Britain.
    He was probably allowed to stay because he had bought a cat and to split them up would have been Islamophobic.
    If Canada was worth studying in and staying on in, why does its generosity get turned against it?
    Just like that murdering clown in Boston, who got absolute consideration as a refugee and targeted kids with his bomb.
    Lesson: ‘Benefit of the doubt’ is finished. Government’s first duty is to protect its citizens, not the preachy ‘do-gooderism’ we see.

      “If Canada was worth studying in and staying on in why does it’s generosity get turned against it”

      Very simple answer. Islam, in it’s purest form, has been taught them from the cradle to a too early grave and the West just has never figured that out so they keep letting them in…So Sad Someone should have figured out what they were up to 25 or 30 years ago and did something about the influx So Sad!!!

    A thorough investigation should be overdue on the entire setup of Canadian Immigration to uncover which officers, Department heads or even Ministry members have been compromised to let in potential traitors and sleepers as residents and settlers. Remember that Petrodollar dispensation is in the hands of Wahabi and Salafi organizations with a world-wide plan.

    Even if the much-vaunted multiculturalism agenda needs to be practiced, it doesn’t make sense at all to specifically import so many death-cult followers – after all Canada is not a signatory to any obligations of the EU to import Muslims. There are plenty of highly-skilled Japanese, Koreans, SE-Asians, Indians, Taiwanese East Europeans or Latin Americans who are non-Muslim and can immediately contribute to Canada without little cultural baggage.

    To satisfy the refugee quota, there are millions of desperate, displaced Zoroastrians, Orthodox Christians, Buddhists and Atheists who would be most grateful to Canada – Instead why pick the ingrate trouble-makers who are OBLIGED by religion to undermine your system ?

      Everyone gets their fair share of “islamic cultural enrichment”.

    Oh, but Mr. Mulcair, the head of the official opposition, thinks that there is no Jihad in Canada and all this annoying talk about radical Muslims is pure Islamophobia.
