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

Canada: Muslim charged with plotting Islamic State-inspired attacks, calling for murder in the name of jihad

Jul 11, 2015 5:45 am By Robert Spencer

Fort St JohnIt seems as if every day now, new jihad plotters are discovered. No one, however, seems curious as to why there are so many of them, or what could possibly be inspiring them. Everyone seems content with the idea that tales of alleged Western atrocities in Muslim lands “radicalizes” otherwise peaceful Muslims. Why such stories move them to kill innocent people, when atrocity stories have inspired numerous other reactions in other groups, remains unexplained.

“Suspect charged in Canada for plotting ‘IS-inspired attacks,’” AFP, July 11, 2015:

A man was arrested and charged in British Columbia Friday after allegedly posting material supporting the Islamic State group and calling for killings in the name of “jihad,” officials said.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police said 33-year-old Othman Ayed Hamdan of Fort St John, about 1,200 kilometers (745 miles) north of Vancouver, was charged on three counts.

He is accused of counseling to commit murder, counseling to assault causing bodily harm and counseling to commit aggravated assault — all “for the benefit of a terrorist group,” according to an RCMP statement.

“Hamdan was involved in posting pro-Islamic State (IS) propaganda online which included inducement and instructions to commit murder in the name of jihad,” the statement said.

Hamdan, who has been under investigation since October 2014, is in custody and is expected to appear in court shortly.

The RCMP said “a number of items” were seized from his residence….

    All nations should do is Big advertisement “Any muslim not happy in this nation has right to leave the country on his own will and Govt will help him leave this nation Please come forward and get welcome exit. ”
    Give one toll free no and these names should be welcome.

    If there were a corresponding number of Scientologists prepared to get violent then Scientology would be banned immediately.

    Same goes for Jehovahs Witnesses or Methodists.

    But Islam ? It’s untouchable and morally spotless in the eyes of westerners.

    “It seems as if every day now, new jihad plotters are discovered.”

    Does anyone know the percentage rate of muslims in US and Canadian prisons?

    The rates in some European countries are truly staggering.

    It’s an excellent way of shaming the “ummah”. Go online and ask them why they think it is so high……..

    The reason there are so many nut jobs now, in large part, is because of the internet.

    Before, such people really only had their local community to associate with, and since most of us are relatively normal, as in, “I don’t wanna shoot nobody, I just want to make a living, raise a family, and have a beer or two.” pretty much an entire community would be saying, varying only in levels of politeness, “Don’t think so stupid.”

    But now, since nut jobs tended to be loners anyway, online they get DAILY reinforcement of their beliefs.

    It’s like they actually has dozens, even hundreds, of those little voices in the heads saying, “You’re so right. Everyone else is wrong. They’re all nasty, nasties for treating you/us this way and they all need to pay. All of them. All of them!” (Insert maniacal laughter.)

    If that ain’t a recipe for general disaster…

    The arrested muslim is doing what it says in the book.

    Allah is the enemy of the unbelievers. Koran 2:98
    Allah does not love the unbelievers. 30.45
    Kill the unbelievers wherever you find them. 9:5
    “If anyone desires a religion other than Islam, never will it be accepted of him.” 3:85

    The Koran is part of Islamic law. It is “for all time”.
    One who denies any verse is to be killed – by anyone, penalty-free.

    Sorry, but this is nonsense.

    Violent jihad has been an intrinsic part of islam for 1400 years. The internet has sod all to do with it.

    Toronto Star’s evidence of “right wing terror” epidemic is biased, dated — and a dangerous distraction

    The RCMP have arrested a man in Fort St. John, BC on terror related charges. While the media reported the arrest, they continue to play down the threat of Islamic jihad motivated terror in Canada.

    Fort St. John is a small northern town with population of about 18k and extremely cold climate in winter, so I was greatly surprised that any muslim would settle there. But apparently the muzzies got as far there in Canada, which means we are really really doomed.
