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

Russian police smash Islamic State gang forging passports for jihadis

Feb 20, 2016 6:18 am By Robert Spencer

“Officials said some of the fake documents were being also being used by migrants to travel by land to Europe.” How many jihadis have succeeded in getting into Europe by means of one of these passports?

“Gang printing fake passports for ISIS jihadis smashed in huge police raid,” by Tom Batchelor, Express, February 18, 2016:

RUSSIA’S secret service agency says it has smashed an Islamic State gang forging passports for extremists to use for travel to Syria.

The Federal Security Service, or FSB, said 14 suspected members of the group had been arrested and were now in custody.

Secret printing presses and laboratories were discovered during the raid near Moscow – the latest in a string of police swoops on suspected terror cells.

The suspects were accused of forging documents for Russians heading to join ISIS – also known by its Arabic acronym Daesh – in the Middle East warzone.

The gang was also said to be making papers for ISIS militants who were sneaking back into Russia to carry out terror attacks.

Search operations revealed a stockpile of forged papers, forms, stamps and equipment for producing fake documents, as well as extremist literature.

Officials said some of the fake documents were being also being used by migrants to travel by land to Europe.

Terror group Islamic State have gone to extreme lengths on their war against the World, designing and producing outrageous homemade weapons which can cause destruction on a large scale.

A top intelligence official warned last month that Britain was at risk of a Paris-style terror attack by jihadis using fake passports to smuggle themselves into Europe.

ISIS terrorists are said to be masquerading as vulnerable refugees fleeing warzones in the Middle East, to exploit the migrant crisis and Germany’s open borders policy.

The militants are aided by false documents produced in Syria and pressure has been building on the European Union to boost its border controls to stop those using fake documents….

    If this is the case there’s nothing any country can do except close down immigration from countries with terrorist groups in them.

    There are some refugees like Burmese Buddhists who are peaceful and would be so grateful to be given another chance in life.

      Give a religious test at the border ? Not a bad idea.
      1) renounce Allah
      2) declare your claimed religious faith, be it Buddism, Hinduism, Christianity, Zoroastrainism, atheism, whatever;
      3) fails get turned away

        …would not work. These vicious people, hellbent on killing someone, would simply lie their way in. Lying has always been a part of Islam and the Muslims, you simply cannot trust them.
        No, shut the borders down. Period. Send them back to where they came from. Then we can help them, at least the ones that needs and deserves our help. I shudder to think what;s gonna happen in Germany over the next 1-5 years with all these murderous people they have let in; how many rapes, how many murders, how many bombs go off, how much of the Christian traditional values will have be trodden down by Muslim practices and show of disrespect.
        They are trouble, which ever way you look at it!
        This is about our own survival and our way of life!

        They would please me even more if after catching these Muslims they simply executed them. We are at war. for heaven’s sake.

    Anyone who thinks that Justin will do anything but facilitate more immigration from Islamic countries is delusional – he said that these terrorists are only “people who feel left out and misunderstood” The Khadr family proudly to this day asserts they are “an AlQaida family.

      You said it! “Misunderstood”? Really Mr. Trudeau? A group that just beheaded an Iraqui teenager for listening to Western music and stoned rape victims to death are “misunderstood”? Please get your head out of the clouds.

        Agreed, many refugees are not fleeing violence, they are the mission to bring it to Canada. Read the Koran Trudeau, misdirection of facts and words are part of the plan. To settle is a mass movement, as time goes deadly acts and crazy things start to occur.

    Not “said”, that has actually happened – some of the murderers who carried out the massacre in Paris last year entered Europe posing as refugees.

    10 MILLIONS Muslims have poured into Europe in the past five years through the asylum system alone. What are the numbers in the past 10, 15 years? This is pure insanity.

      The Muslim population of Europe now exceeds the population of many ” Muslim” countries.
      Europe´s suicide by Islam is on track and running smoothly, thanks to Merkel, Cameron, Hollande and the lunatics running the asylum in Brussels.

    There is no way Europe can continue open borders without causing harm to peace and security. In a time of open declared war (declared by ISIS), there is heightened need for border control.

    Open borders are madness.

    So will there be an investigation now into the the USE Of WATERBOARDING and TORTURE By the F.S. B ??? LOL

    • خَليفة says

      Feb 20, 2016 at 7:09 pm

      I’m sure Russia has more effective and more extreme methods than “water boarding”.

      “Water boarding” never places a suspect’s life in danger, nor will any physical harm come to them in the process. Some interrogators are waterboarded so they can understand the experience.

      Nah, that level of standards only applies to America and its allies. Because leftists have the “soft bigotry of low expectations” mode turned on by default.

    Two things should be stated. First,the Russian police do have every right to use force in destroying the fake passport ISIS operation. For the jihadist thugs who compose ISIS would have only used those fake passports as tool for their murderous schemes of extreme wickedness. Second, as for the lands of Syria and Iraq the the ISIS entity now has total tyrannical control of by brute force, de facto, The people in those lands now have to suffer and endure the ISIS tyranny of the ISIS rulers with their cruel harsh Islamic oppression.. Therefore the people in those lands ,under ISIS control, now have to live in awful and terrible fear. This is a reminder of the wisdom printed by Benjamin Franklin in POOR RICHARDS ALMANACK .Which reads “Those who are feared are also hated.”

    …………………

    I’m glad Russia shut them down–chances are there are many more, though.

    But what about the euro leader that just said that the refugees are not being exploited by ISIS?

    I’m confused…

    Or is it the case that the methods that they are using are circumventing detection by the oh so smart European leaders…

    ..hmmm.

    Now we know for certain they have Nuclear materials deliberately stolen in Iraq. It’s going to happen and when a western county’s capital city is deemed uninhabitable for centuries I hope it will be enough for us to declare a jihad of out own against the entire Muslim world and if nukes have to be used for them to get the message, so be it.

    Russia’s Vlad Putin doesn’t seem to go for suicidally masochist globalism – unlike our traitor “leaders.”
