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

Muslim arrested in Germany over Brussels jihad massacre

Mar 26, 2016 12:27 pm By Robert Spencer

“The man, who had been barred from the European Union’s border-free Schengen area,” was arrested in Germany nonetheless. That shows how effectively such bans have been enforced. Meanwhile, I have long delays at airports every time I check in now, while authorities verify that I am not traveling to the UK — while jihadists freely enter it. The European authorities have their priorities straight.

German police

“Arrest in Germany over Brussels blasts: reports,” The Local, March 25, 2016:

German police have arrested a 28-year-old Moroccan man whose mobile phone text messages may link him to one of the Brussels bombers.

The man, who had been barred from the European Union’s border-free Schengen area, was arrested in Giessen, near Frankfurt, late Wednesday by police who checked his identity at the local railway station, the news weekly Der Spiegel and ARD TV channel reported Friday.

German police and the public prosecutor’s office in Giessen could not immediately be reached to comment on the reports. Friday was a public holiday in Germany.

ARD said an SMS on the man’s phone mentioned the name of one of the two El Bakraoui brothers, who blew themselves up in Tuesday’s bomb attacks in Brussels.

The police also found another message, with the French word “fin”(“end”), that was sent on Tuesday at 9:08 am (0808 GMT), two minutes before Khalid El Bakraoui detonated his bomb in the Brussels subway, der Spiegel said on its website.

Shortly before, his brother Ibrahim El Bakraoui was one of two suicide bombers who blew themselves up at Brussels’ Zaventem airport.

The arrested man had been in contact “with at least one person in the (terrorist) group” in the hours before the attacks, ARD said without giving details….

    That’s not a ‘man’. That’s a muslim.

    I don’t call someone a ‘man’ who: 1. Beats up/rapes women 2. Rapes children (of both sexes) 3. Doesn’t protect his ‘family’ and 4. Flees in terror from any opponent who isn’t a woman, child, or bound/helpless captive.

    So they’ll find the muslim hopefully. But he won’t be a ‘man’. No: The ones who catch, beat, wound or kill the muslim? They’re the ‘men’.

      ‘That’s not a man. It’s a muslim’

      Brilliant comment. I must remember that one. And it’s true. They don’t have ‘families’ otherwise most of those ‘poor Syrians’ in Europe would still be back home looking after them. But they seem to have hundreds of ‘brothers’ – just like the ‘Jets’ and the ‘Sharks’, all suffering from the same ‘social disease’ – Islam.

    Such heinous jihad ISIS suicide /homicide bombings just this week in Brussels raises the question is as to why are the jihadist bombers are , so very, delusional that they actually want to become human bombs ? Some of the reasons are that such violent and deadly people are the outcome of the extreme brainwashing that is done in Islamic mind programming centers which are more widely known as mosques and madrasas, by the Muslim clerics, such as the imams and in some countries as Afghanistan and Iran also the mullahs. In those Islamic mind programming centers youth are thoroughly indoctrinated into believing in the Islamic doctrine from the Koran. as found in 44;54. 55:56. 78:31.., of a sexual/lust filled paradise with many virgins, houris, in it for the Muslim male who dies fighting for the cause of Islam in the jihad. First and foremost, those who come out of those places of extreme brainwash are so very warped, sick and deluded that they actually view such murderous bombing attacks as “martyrdom operations” Likewise, they are so very damaged that they have literally become dangerous to self and others. In addition, the Bible does warn about false teachers who ingrain a belief in a doctrine of a story of a /lustful/lust-filled place with much sex in it. For the Bible warns about false teachers, the Muslim clerics do fit this description, in Second Peter 2:18. Which reads “For they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh…” Furthermore, many a times a jihad –minded Muslim in his death recording talks about “the wedding with the virgins” that he will have after he becomes a “martyr.” Such a belief Jesus would denounce as being based on false doctrine and false teaching. For Jesus taught “Ye do err, not knowing the scripture, nor the power of God. For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angles in heaven.” Mathew 22:29, 30. In contrast to the delusional Islamic pipedream of the jihadist in the Koranic story/doctrine of a place with virgins, Christians have the reality of Second Peter 1:16. Which reads “For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ…” [K.J.V.]

      Walter Sieruk, these are some of the most comprehensive and revelatory comments on islam I have ever read. Your terms “human bombs”, “Islamic mind programming centers which are more widely known as mosques”, “sexual/lust filled paradise ” and your comparison of the Islamic paradise with the Kingdom of Righteousness makes extremely clear that allah is NOT G-d. One other thing…in Numbers 5:27 there is a word in Hebrew meaning “curse”. This word transliterated is “alah”…. אלה

    The man, who had been barred from the European Union’s border-free Schengen area, was arrested in Giessen, near Frankfurt,

    Let me guess: he left his papers at home, joined the “Syrian” “refugees” and made it through the Schengen area all the same.

    yeah, sure . Only terrorists, wife-beaters, pedophiles, honour-killers are welcome in Europe & U K.

    You ain’t one of them.

    how can you even dream of entering Europe/ U K , Dear?

    I suspect there is a still small voice that has been whispering in the European Elite Leader’s ears for more than a decade but was drowned out by by the need to be re-elected by liberal voters and the expanding umma.

    One cannot blame the leaders for fearing the anti-jihadist message. By following the liberal herd, and inviting pro-Islamic apologists and speakers, yet keeping out anti-jihad educators like Mr. Spencer, they preserve plausable deniability. If, as it appears imminent, the citizens are forced to conclude the leadership was wrong, they will simply say the apologists mislead them without having to admit they were warned by Mr. Spencer and others like him.

    The politicians consider the safety of their own future prospects above the safety of their citizens. The Bible describes accurately that such men, “.. shall be lovers of their own selves..”

    Bizarre, at first glance!

    Understandable after diagnosing the patient. (It is fey!)
