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

Islamic State recruiter traveled through Europe “like a popstar on tour”

Feb 22, 2016 8:46 pm By Robert Spencer

Omerovic’s “flat was stuffed with jewellery, cash and savings books worth a fortune when it was stormed by Austria’s elite heavily-armed police special forces team WEGA.” Who was financing him?

And the characteristically witless Daily Mail portrays him as having magic powers to “brainwash” people. They don’t explain exactly how he does this, because if they did in any honest manner, it would lead them right back to the Qur’an and Sunnah.

“Islamic hate preacher who recruited ISIS poster girls travelled through Europe ‘like a popstar on tour as he brainwashed teenagers,'” by Gianluca Mezzofiore, Mailonline, February 22, 2016:

An alleged Islamic hate preacher reported to have been the terror mastermind who recruited the Austrian jihad ‘poster girls’ and more than 160 others was travelling Europe ‘like a popstar on tour’, a court heard.

Mirsad Omerovic, 34, known by the Islamic name of ‘Ebu Tejma’, was arrested in November last year at the council flat he shared with his pregnant wife and five children.

Authorities believe Omerovic, originally from Bosnia now on trial in Austria’s southern city of Graz, recruited Samra Kesinovic, 17 and Sabina Selimovic, 16, who became the public face of jihad.

He was also involved in a further 166 defections of European youngsters to fight in holy war.
Tejma’s ‘main message was that Islam needed to be spread to the world through jihad,’ a prosecutor said. He added that Ebu Tejma was travelling through Europe ‘like a popstar on tour’.

Tejma’s ‘main message was that Islam needed to be spread to the world through jihad,’ a prosecutor said. He added that Ebu Tejma was travelling through Europe ‘like a popstar on tour’.

Omerovic [sic] flat was stuffed with jewellery, cash and savings books worth a fortune when it was stormed by Austria’s elite heavily-armed police special forces team WEGA. He had also been spotted driving top-of-the-range sport cars.

Opening his trial in Austria, the prosecutor told the court that Omerovic’s ‘main message was that Islam needed to be spread to the world through jihad.’

He added that Ebu Tejma was travelling through Europe ‘like a popstar on tour’.

And he added that the popstar analogy was particularly appropriate because Omerovic even had his own YouTube channel aimed at young Muslims aged between 14 and their late twenties.

He added it offered ‘to carry out brainwashing on those that viewed it’.

The two Austrian teens became the terror organisation’s latest PR coup when they turned out to be poster girls for the death cult, and featured on ISIS websites carrying AK-47s and surrounded by groups of armed men.

Neither however has been seen for almost a year, with a Tunisian ISIS returnee telling investigators that Samra had been forced to become a sex slave who was offered as a present to new fighters, and that she was later stoned to death when she tried to escape.

With regards to Sabina, a United Nations official revealed a girl ‘of Bosnian origin from Austria’ – believed to be Sabina – had died fighting in Syria.

Both had allegedly become radicalised by Omerovic. When they had left their homes, they left a note for their families which read: ‘Don’t look for us. We will serve Allah and we will die for him.’…

    Funny how only muslims are affected by that alleged “brainwash”…

      Brainwashing occurs in most of our colleges by the left wing college professors indoctrinating students into the cult of liberalism. But Islam is a religion of war so no brainwashing is necessary, just history lessons about Muhammad and jihad. A jihadi is a good Muslim who is following the example that Muhammad set 1,400 years ago.

      Like many “charismatics”, including O, and Hitler, and Trump, he hits “hot button” emotions and plays on those; things that deeply trouble people who are vulnerable, and then leads their thinking in the desired direction, fairly easily, because they’re following emotions not actually THINKING!

    “Who was financing him?”

    Probably the same mysterious folks who have sent over 5,000 Islamic State members to war. But don’t put on a pig hat; it could be bad for community cohesion.

      Zakat supports them; and that’s paid by EVERY Muslim in EVERY mosque around the world!

    Perhaps this could be used to “unbrainwash” and to give misguided people some reality …….

    The article says: “Opening his trial in Austria, the prosecutor told the court that Omerovic’s ‘main message was that Islam needed to be spread to the world through jihad.’”

    That was Mohammed’s main message, the main message of the Koran and the main message of most of Islam’s foundational writers.

    Why do Western elites not understand that jihad is CORE ISLAM, just as the US constitution is the CORE of AMERICANISM. Why do American elites not get that?

    The American elites and European elites are CULPABLY NEGLIGENT for not studying and understanding the foundational source texts of Islam.

      The only goal of Islam:
      Inflict Sharia Law on All Mankind – I.S.L.A.M.

    Saudi Arabia has set up mosques all around the world to promote the Wahabbi form of Islam and is one of the worst human rights abusers in the world. It is time to cut off Islam from the free world – let them rot in their violence, hatred and misery. The free world does not need their oil anymore. And the same goes for Iran which is the worst facilitator of terrorism around the world.

    Who would search a religion of hatred and killing everyone who doesn’t believe? Are these [people sick?
    How about a religion that preaches love they neighbor as thyself, and do good to others?
    Wherever Islam goes hatred, death, lies, beheadings and distrust always follow, is there a connection?

    Haven’t we seen this megastar fleecing of the flock somewhere before – a reference to scripture, the promise of prosperity, becoming the chosen, financing the cause, and staying out of hell?

    “Omerovic [sic] flat was stuffed with jewellery, cash and savings books worth a fortune.” What? No Citation X? What a piker! And only leading less than 200 to certain financial devastation and early death.

    The Umma believers are so easily shorn because they have been prepared to be zakat-yielding slaves in the all-or-nothing demerit system of the fundamentalist digamma-digamma-digamma fraternity.

    It is tragic that two young girls, and millions more, with life’s promise ahead of them, were hoodwinked and absorbed by an ideology that promises nothing more than an eternal boring hedonism while destroying their current life.

    Why is the greatest disaster, the misdirecting of youth, so insidiously silent?
