Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Muslim from Jamaica detained in Suriname, was trying to join Islamic State

Apr 14, 2015 1:37 am By Robert Spencer

isis1Muslims from all over the world are trying to join the Islamic State. Many are succeeding. Yet our non-Muslim leaders unanimously assure us that it has nothing to do with Islam. Will they explain how this misunderstanding of Islam became so widespread?

“Would-be extremist recruit from Jamaica detained in Suriname,” PTI, April 13, 2015 (thanks to Lookmann):

Kingston: A Jamaican teenager has been detained in Suriname on suspicion of being a would-be militant hoping to join Islamic extremists.

In a statement, Suriname’s police force says the 16-year-old was denied entry after arriving at the country’s main airport on Saturday.

Police say the boy was trying to fly to the Netherlands and then to Turkey. They say a regional intelligence service informed them that the Jamaican hoped to slip into Syria to join Islamic State militants.

Suriname police say the teen has been flown back to Jamaica.

Jamaica’s national security ministry did not immediately provide comment.

Last month, Jamaica insisted there was “no evidence” of Jamaicans joining terrorist groups after a US general identified the island as one of the regional nations producing a flow of 100 would-be militants.

    Government response? He wasn’t trying to become a terrorist. He was just going there to organize the ISIS Bobsled Team…

    There should be a unified world wide policy regarding these lemmings – They are free to go and Godspeed. BUT they will thereafter be forever persona non-grata in Non-Sharia countries. You can go, but you cannot come back, and NO, we certainly will NOT help you if you change your mind because your iPod doesn’t work in the barren wastes. Sorry, ’bout that. One Way Only

    The authorities were perfectly correct in not letting this would-be jihadi reach ISIS, where he could happily join the rest of the fervent Muslims in burning, torturing, beheading, and robbing (jizya) non-Muslims and apostates (Shias).

    However, it’s a shame he gets to go back to Jamaica, where he can just as easily join one of the street gangs. The street gangs have free rein as the authorities have used the full force of the law to crack down on honest citizens wishing to arm themselves for self-protection.
