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

57 Paris airport workers on terror watch list, “Allahu akbar” scrawled on fuel tank

Dec 1, 2015 1:15 pm By Robert Spencer

What could possibly go wrong? It would be “Islamophobic” to deny these jihadis employment, you greasy Islamophobe.

An update on this story. “Dozens of Paris airport workers on terror watch list: report,” by Yaron Steinbuch, New York Post, November 29, 2015:

The security passes of 86,000 workers at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris will be reviewed after it was found that 57 employees with access to airliners were on a terror watch list, according to a report.

Security badges were taken away from dozens of workers at the airport after terror attacks in Paris in January — but others continued working, the Sunday Times of London reported.

Police official Philippe Riffault told the paper that the review of airport passes will begin with 5,000 security personnel.

“It’s a question of verifying what these people might have been doing since they obtained their authorization,” Riffault said.

Police carried out extensive searches of the airport under state-of-emergency powers after the Nov. 13 Paris attacks in which 130 people were killed and 350 injured by Islamic State militants.

Belgium, where several of the Paris attackers had lived, also has pulled security badges from several airport workers after discovering that some had links to jihadis who had traveled to Syria.

Meanwhile, anxiety has been brewing about radicalism among bus, Metro and railroad workers.

Samy Amimour, who blew himself up in the Bataclan concert hall in Paris, managed to get a job as a bus driver while on a watch list.
In other developments:

It emerged that Arabic graffiti was spray-painted on four planes belonging to the British carrier EasyJet and a plane from the Spanish airline Vueling at two French airports. Three defaced planes were found in Lyon and two at Charles de Gaulle, AFP reported.
“Allahu Akbar,” or “God is great,” was scrawled on a fuel-tank hatch of one EasyJet plane in Paris. EasyJet said there had been a “small number” of such cases since the Nov. 13 attacks….

        I going to hazard a guess here…going right out on a limb now…I’m GUESSING all 57 were PIOUS ADHERENTS of an unnameable RELIGION of PEACE…nah…couldn’t be them.

        But were they all bearded?

    ………………………

    And the most insane thing, as Champ notes, is that some of those on the terror watch list are *still working at the airport*. Muslims present a danger in general–but these are *known* to support violent Jihad.

    And when I first heard about the “Arabic graffiti” I assumed it was “Allahu Akbar”–really, what else could it be?

    And what is it like at other airports, all over the world? My guess is that there will be many, many more cases like the bombing of the Russian passenger jet.

    Here’s a CNN article identifying at least 73 airport workers in the US on terror watch lists:

      I work in NYC. After the Paris terrorism by followers of the so called religion of the peace, I was going on a sales call to upper west side and I was walking in Times Square. I freaked out and changed course. It is a prime target. The Jihadists are doing a good job. M

    Does it not seem like it is all on purpose? The moslim who wanted to drive a school bus…even though he was on a list…the one mentioned above who drove a bus and blew himself up in Paris…
    And the officials know these things and carry on as though nothing is amiss and no one is in danger.
    And then when the bombs go off and the planes come down…oh my, how did that happen?

    We must monitor phone calls and emails and drone backyards and swimming pools to *keep everyone safe.*…while they turn around and later acknowledge that x number of people are on watch lists and are being allowed to work where, at any given time, those on the list can cause major loss of life.

    satan is truly having a good laugh while his children are allowed a free hand. He is devouring and using islam, its adherents and those afraid of offending to do his work.

    This is an attempt to discriminate peace loving Muslims again. Of course they will get angry and kill innocent men, women, and children. They have no other choice. “POOR MUSLIMS”

    Strategic discrimination without personal prejudice, in the hiring and allocation of airport staff, would have avoided this dangerous development.

    Huh, why? Is there any law in place preventing them, from getting the boot? Or do they think that they’re not a potential threat?

    Hi Robert and all
    I am a jew living in israel and i follow reading Jihad watch, atlas shrugs and bare naked islam
    I got to tell you that i feel very much alone
    as if the world around me don’t see the great threat that islam poses
    and whats worst than that they don’t want to see and they strongly reluctant to even talk about this issue. like it was some kind of taboo
    even my friends consider me now as a weird bird because im obsessed with this issue
    I am asking my self what happened to this world? am I the only one around here that see the horrible future that islam is planing for us ?
    Europe has committed suicide and I am asking does the rest of the world USA Canada Australia must follow them?
    why doesn’t anybody is doing anything to rescue the world from the disease of islam
    Putin looks like the only one with enough guts to fight them
    he cant make it alone
    why the Americans don’t go out to the streets and demand the stopping of islamization in america and the free world
    Islam is winning and that is causing me great pain and sorrow because i can see in my mind all the great horrors that islam will make in israel

We must continue to send out the alarm and pray for G-d’s salvation for those lost to the religion of HaSatan!

    All we can do is keep speaking out and spreading the truth.

    The tides are turning a little here (USA) with I believe 66% believing that Islam is a religion of violence.

    It is shocking to me that in Israel, with all the violence perpetrated by Palestinians against Jews, that you would face such an attitude and outlook. I certainly have met online many Israeli Jews who, like you, see the problem of Islam realistically, so maybe it is partly attributable to your circle of friends.

    But the are idiot multiculturalists/cultural-relativists everywhere. Fight the dumb idea that Islam is the same as other religions.

    Never mind Paris, what about Manchester? Manch security has been overrun by Muslims, and now they don’t even bother to wear uniforms, they wear kaftans. And they are deliberately useless.

    So we had a case of a refueller parking his car next to the fuel farm, against all regulations. But nobody would repremand him, because he was the only Muslim refueller. So his car is probably there today, with who knows what inside it.

    What could go wrong??

  17. Aton says

    Dec 2, 2015 at 4:22 am

    And there is a reverse danger too, the danger of innaction.

    I wrote a report about why several aircraft cockpits burst into flames, burning out completely. Luckily no deaths so far. I discovered that the culprit was the Muslim custom of having eau de cologne on the flightdeck for ritual cleansing. And this, combined with pure oxygen from the masks, causes a catastrophic fire.

    All this was reported to the aviation authorities but they refused to act, presumably because it was ‘discriminatory’ against Muslims. Yup, they would rather that passengers burn to death, than confront the Muslim lobby.

    Go figure.

    “57 Paris airport workers on terror watch list”. Instead of merely watching them, outcome oriented action is required. The existing legal system of prosecuting accused people and the accused defending themselves against charges, resulting often in the prosecution failing, does not solve the problem. Law enforcement authorities should adopt a “covert extra-judicial elimination” approach which is quick and categorical. This is the surest way of safeguarding society against these villains. If these airport workers are currently assigned to refuel planes, they do not need bombs to bring down aircraft. All they need to do is to pour a sufficient quantity of water into the tanks to bring the aircraft down from the skies. In the subsequent inquest there would be no evidence of the water as it would evaporate due to the ensuing fire. There is a genuine fear of flying from any airport where these villains are employed.

    This is why it will eventually come to the forced expulsion of Muslims from Europe and the United states and a total war with Islamic countries. There’s no way around it. What happens when a Muslim in the US military applies for a job in the Nuclear Missile silo you can’t discriminate. There is no way to tell the good from the bad Muslims and at any moment a good Muslim can become more devout and commit atrocities. This should never have been permitted to happen in the first place. Islam is simply incompatible with western society they are intrinsically hostile to non-Muslims and are supremacist by nature. Allowing more of them to come is tantamount to suicide.

      Once upon a time i was open to a casual nod at a muslim in public or dare i say a hello when i might be out doing business somewhere. However, i noticed, quite some time ago, they seem generally not open to acknowledging westerners in public. In other words, i noticed islam is not that social with the west to put it politely or maybe, to put is less politely, they are snobs towards westerners. Of course these days i don’t care to socialize with them much after being educated about their culture in relation to the west and especially after all the continuing terrorism. Frankly, they can continue to be snobs!

      I believe you are right that islam is not compatible culturally with the west. I add that it never will be on its present course. It will keep repeating its atrocious history in relation to us. Unless islam purges the medina part of the koran, or its warlike part, and that is not likely with a million holier than thou imams pitting one group against another, more violence towards the west will be the future. I also agree with you that it is impossible in general to tell which muslim will be the next to step out as the glorious jihadi (workplace, soccer arena, you name the place) warrior with an agenda to kill. Furthermore, islamists keep shooting themselves in the foot whenever those who claim they are the peaceful ones say they will never protest the radicals who exist among them. That’s like hearing someone say to a neighbor that they like them to their face but they won’t call the police when someone is trying to break into their neighbor’s house.

      All this is no surprise with the islamist cult that sees the western kaffir (as they like to call us) as subservient. What is indeed surprising is that their culture, such an amazing amalgamation of ignorance and arrogance, religion and government, rolled into 1001 ways to follow the leader and create havoc upon the west, does not extinguish itself into some nuclear implosion of cultural suicide. With such totally opposite bipolarity that can never truly be at peace with itself, its amazing that it somehow is so convincingly brainwashing to its followers. Although manic depression as a disorder is not a perfect analogy for islamists, it does illustrate the pathological nature of that cult where one can actually say they are ecstatically at peace even as they are killing you and not be lying (mecca + medina = the perfect alibi). In fact, they are merely being a good example of their faith. There is no real cure for bipolar disorder and i believe there is no cure for islamism in this present form. Its polarity can only be controlled; bipolar disorder with medication and islamism with force against force. Reason with islam or islamists will not work!

      the war against islam is inevitable and the sooner the better
