Video: Muslim NHL player threatens to slit the throat of opposing player

Feb 10, 2016 1:01 pm By Robert Spencer

Read his lips. Nazem Kadri is threatening to murder Mark Giordano. Certainly he was caught up in the heat of the moment and isn’t really going to kill him, but as a Muslim, his cultural frame of reference is interesting. When you grow up hearing “When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks” (Qur’an 47:4) and that sort of thing, even if you’re not all that devout yourself, it’s just possible that it might be in the back of your mind.

“Nazem Kadri’s throat-slashing gesture being examined by NHL,” by Doug Harrison, CBC Sports, February 10, 2016:

A depleted Toronto Maple Leafs forward unit soon could be minus another player.

The NHL’s hockey operations department is taking a look at Nazem Kadri’s throat-slashing gesture towards Mark Giordano after the Flames defenceman dazed Kadri with a hit in the first period of Tuesday night’s 4-3 Calgary win at the Saddledome.

“There was emotion, I couldn’t tell if it was a clean hit or not,” Kadri told reporters. “I was told it was, but it certainly didn’t feel like it. It [the throat slash] is something I don’t really remember doing. I was in and out a little bit.”

“I guess it’s going to be reviewed [by the league], but it was an emotional reaction.”

The 25-year-old Kadri was disciplined for the same gesture while playing for Canada in a game against Switzerland at the 2010 world junior hockey championship.

    A mohammedan behaving like a mohammedan, what’s so surprising in it??
    It is basically our fault to think some mohammedans if they are born here, study here, speak our language and participate in some of our activities have integrated in to the host society. A mohammedan will always be a mohammedan first, no mater how much money or star status we shower on them, first instance and they’ll come to cut your throats.
    And, I can bet you NHL has no balls to punish this parasite.

      It was a clean hit. Stick down, no elbows. A good hockey play. The throat slashing gesture was a threat. The NHL will likely do the following:

      1. Require all Calgary players to undergo sensitivity training and Islamic education courses to better learn how to not disrespect Islamic players by checking them.

      2. Create safety (hit free) zones around Islamic players.

      3. Immediately commence an initiative to bring more Islamic players into the NHL to show the NHL’s commitment to diversity.

      4. Require female Toronto fans to wear face veils. (This might actually get some traction as it would save them from being identified as supporters of this wreck of a hockey club).

      5, Cease the sale and distribution of all alcoholic beverages at NHL arenas.

        In 2010, Blackhawks defenceman Nick Boynton was banned from Chicago’s season-opener after he made a throat-slashing gesture following a preseason fight. Boynton was also suspended in 2006 for the identical motion.

        The NHL first deemed throat-slashing gesture’s a no-no with a warning to Florida’s Peter Worrell in 2000. It has frequently been outlawed when caught on camera since then.

      Ah, yes–since hockey players are always threatening to behead each other. Oh…wait…

    • Gerry says

      Cathy is right on in her comment as is Northern.
      I can’t say if Kadri has more intent than the countless good Canadian boys that have used this same gesture in the heat of the moment. Ask Don Cherry. If you dont know who Don is then perhaps you should be more cautious when commenting on hockey culture. There are many more important issues regarding the advancement of Islam than this red herring. We should be more selective in our fight!

    • Chabuco says

      Feb 11, 2016 at 9:40 am

      Please, stop projecting. If your supposed savage son threatened to behead other people then that’s your sick fuck son and his upbringing, That’s not normal at all in hockey nor in other sports, nor is it normal in non-Muslim civilizations to go around decapitating people or threatening them with such savagery.

      • Atheist7 says

        Feb 11, 2016 at 10:10 am

        Projecting? Is this not “the pot calling the kettle black”? For all we know, Cathy’s son is just a normal kid that like to skate around, smash into things, and bash things with his stick. (As you might guess, I am not a hockey fan)

      • Carolyne says

        Feb 11, 2016 at 11:37 am

        I agree with that, Chabuco. If my son made a Muslim gesture of beheading a member of an opposing team, his hockey career would be cut very short. Also, according to the article, this player has been disciplined in the past for making the same Islamic gesture.

        I know hockey is a rough game. I know that few professional players have their front teeth. Most of them, however, still have their heads on their shoulders

    ” There was emotion , I couldn’t tell if it was a clean hit or not” Of course not , he has never been taught to think , Allah forbids thinking in the koran ! He was instead taught to follow his Offended ANGRY EMOTIONS . Especially when STOOD UP TO by a filthy Kaffir , Jew or Christian and especially by a woman . Never ceases to amaze me, how even SO CALLED MODERATE muslims threaten to behead, when their challenged ! One of these days one of these Little Girls are going to do this to One of the WRONG PEOPLE. And I’m sure there ‘s a few N.H.L. Hockey Studs who would like to get this LITTLE PUKE in the corners . I’m sure however they’d be SUSPENDED for discrimination !!!

    He went to a fight and hockey game…er…a slashing was threatened.

    Conveniently, he *doesn’t remember* doing it. Guess he can’t say he was drunk, although *in and out of it* might be what he considers close to drunk.

    Yes, indeed. A Muslim making a *throat-slashing gesture* is not exactly the same thing as an Infidel saying “I’ll moider da bum!”, which no one would take very seriously.

    And consider what is *actually* going on with Muslims beheading their victims all over the world, and this is quite chilling.

    OK. Professional sports are violent. Hockey is particularly violent. Guys have tempers. Deal with it. There are a huge number of posts on Jihad Watch. One should focus on those issues that are more closely related to Islamization and how to stop it. That would be a better use of time.

    Nazem Kadri also says that Donald Trump is “delusional” in thinking the US can keep Muslims from flooding into the country.

  18. Barry says

    Feb 10, 2016 at 11:32 pm

    It was a beautiful hit!- Kadri is just a little girl playing in the men’s league. If I were coaching and he did that stupid throat cutting gesture to one of my players it wouldn’t be safe for him to step on to the ice for many years to come. He’d be pounded on until he thought his name was Bengay- He’d be drinking pain killers through a straw breakfast, lunch and supper. But no doubt he’s still upset at the Girl Guides for trading him to Toronto so when he matures and his voice starts to change and he starts growing hair in all those odd places he might get over it. Hey Kadri do you wear a jock strap just for show?

  19. Vlad Tepes says

    Feb 11, 2016 at 11:11 am

    To prove Robert’s thesis would be easy. Compare the number of beheadings in the US before, say the year 2000 when Islamic influence was near zero. Beheadings both by muslims and non muslims and then check the number of beheadings in the US since the year 2000 by muslims, non-muslims and unreported (which deserves a separate category as often it is clear the religious identity of the suspect is being hidden by reportage) it is a safe assumption that if there is a sudden spike, not to be confused with putting people’s decapitated heads on spikes, in beheadings, then it can safely be corelated to the now massive influence of islamic practices and beliefs world wide.

    Personally I think few would have to actually have to do the study. There has been I think 5 decapitations in Oklahoma alone in the past 14 months, some by converts and some by unspecified. Clearly this is cultural cross over as well as islamic practice.

      Of course, lots of Muslims drink and do drugs. I don’t really care if they are hypocrites or not–I care about Muslim violence like beheadings.

      Certainly, we’ve seen many so-called “moderate” or “lax” Muslims who drink or do drugs–or go to strip clubs or eat bacon cheeseburgers–who are still all too happy to wage violent Jihad.

    • gravenimage says

      Feb 11, 2016 at 5:41 pm

    Hey Sportsnet Canada,

    Nazem Kadri doesn’t have a Christmas list. Says he doesn’t remember the throat-slash gesture

    (w/obscenities) he made at Mark Giordano. Of course he’s a liar. He’s done it before.

    This time it cost him $5000.
