Turkey: Police foil New Year’s Eve jihad terror plot, second Islamic State plot foiled in a week

Dec 30, 2015 12:53 pm By Robert Spencer

While Turks entertain themselves by fantasizing about Santa Claus converting to Islam after learning it’s a religion of peace, those Muslims who don’t believe it’s a religion of peace at all are plotting to make life miserable for as many Turks as possible.

“New Year’s Eve terror threat: SECOND ISIS plot foiled in a week as suicide vest seized,” by Alix Culbertson, Express, December 30, 2015 (thanks to Pamela Geller):

Suicide vests armed with bombs fortified with ball bearings and metal sticks were seized during a raid on a house in a low-income neighbourhood of Ankara where two Turkish nationals were arrested on Wednesday morning – the day before New Year’s Eve.

The Ankara chief prosecutor’s office believe the attackers were planning to detonate the suicide vests at two locations during celebrations to bring in 2016 tomorrow.

It comes just days after Belgian police arrested six people on Sunday and Monday thought to be planning a New Year’s Eve terror attack after officers found military clothing and ISIS propaganda while raiding homes in Brussels and the neighbouring province of Leige.

A Turkish Government official said the two men, who entered Turkey from Syria, were thought to have been preparing attacks near bars and a shopping mall on Kizilay square in the center of Ankara, where crowds usually gather to celebrate the New Year….

The two Turkish nationals, identified by their initials M.C. and A.Y., are being questioned by anti-terrorism police, the prosecutor’s office said….

    They are undoubtedly upset that thy are unable to sell their stolen oil as easily to Erdogan, nor are they receiving the same massive shipments of weapons from him. Thanks to Putin.

    I bet ISIS is looking at Turkey as a country of infidels as Turkey as of now still the more relax countries as far as Islam goes. Erdogan is doing his best to change that of course. They can taste real Islam like the rest of the world thanks to ISIS.

    The ignorance of Islam all over the world is truly amazing especially at this age of Internet.

    I have often thought what would be the most appropriate punishment for would-be suicide bombers…

    That would be – chain them to a chair with their suicide vests strapped on them, in a bomb-proof cell. Have it wired to a timer given a random delay of between 30 minutes and 24 hours. While they wait patiently for it to explode, they are forced to watch endless videos of the suffering of victims of past suicide bombings. At random intervals, play recordings of someone screaming “Allahu Akbar” at the top of his lungs. After each such incident throw a firecracker into the cell.

    Have a camera filming the whole thing and streaming it live on the internet. (You could also have a betting pool running on the side taking bets on when the suicide vest will explode, and skimming a percentage off the top to donate to past victims.)

    Thereby after the first few we may find in time a sharp decrease in the number of volunteers for such suicide missions. Even if that doesn’t stop them, at least it would make for great entertainment.

    This is plain, simple islamophobia – they should be interrogated by the religious police, since they’re merely muslims abiding by their religion.
