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

Austria: Muslim “refugee,” Mumbai jihad suspect, arrested for plot in Europe

Apr 10, 2016 4:07 pm By Robert Spencer

He is a suspect in the Mumbai jihad massacres, but still was able to enter Europe as a “refugee.”

Mumbai

“Mumbai terror attack suspect defected to Isil and ‘posed as refugee to plan attack in Europe,'” by Justin Huggler, Telegraph, April 10, 2016:

A Pakistani extremist linked to the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks has reportedly been arrested in Austria on suspicion of planning attacks in Europe.

The suspect is one of two men arrested in Salzburg posing as refugees on suspicion of planning attacks for Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (Isil). The 34-year-old man, who has not previously been identified, was named as Muhammad Ghani Usman by the Sunday Times.

He is said to be a former bombmaker for Lashkar-e Taiba (LeT), the Pakistani group behind the 2008 attacks in Mumbai, in which 164 people were killed.

Unnamed sources close to a multinational investigation said “dozens” of Isil operatives entered Europe posing as asylum-seekers and are still at large.

Austrian prosecutors have confirmed that two men arrested on December 10 in Salzburg entered Europe posing as Syrian refugees last October. They arrived in Greece on the same boat as two of those involved in last November’s Paris attacks.

The second man was named as Adel Haddadi, a 28-year-old Algerian, and claimed investigators believe they were members of one of a number of Isil “strike teams” who infiltrated Europe under cover of the migrant crisis.

The 2008 Mumbai attacks, in which teams of gunmen took over two hotels and opened fire on busy streets and cafes, are widely considered a model for recent terror attacks in Europe….

    “a series of 12 coordinated shooting and bombing attacks lasting four days across Mumbai.
    The attacks began on Wednesday, 26 November 2008 and lasted until Saturday killing 164 people and wounding at least 308.[2][14]”

    The depth and extent of American and European Leftist hatred for us knows no limits.

    They aren’t stupid.
    Their hatred runs so deep they just couch their language in humanitarian concern so no one realizes they are actually waging war on us from within.
    Don’t expect the opposition to utter a peep.
    The Left is prepared to descend on dissenters and apostates with accusations of hatred, Islamophobe, bigot, xenophobe, ad nauseum.
    It’s what they do and how they do it.

      Yes, the left has allied with Islam to destroy America and Western Civilization and the Democrat party is controlled by the left. Never vote for a Democrat again, even for a minor position.

    B-b-but, “Syrian” “refugees” are vetted! And they’re just desperate people escaping a war! And they’re a boon to the economy and birth rate. LA LA LA I CAN’T HEAR YOU!!!

    Anyway, send the bastard to India to face trial.

    “Anyway, send the bastard to India to face trial”.

    That would be the sensible and righteous thing to do, Angemon. But, you see, India has capital punishment and so the Austrians would never do it. They would prefer to let him go rather than breach his human rights by sending him to a jurisdiction where he would face the death penalty.

    There is a saying in German: “Against stupidity the gods themselves struggle in vain.”

    I imagine the Indian authorities will be very pleased to get their hands on him.

    I second the postings by those above who propose that this creature be sent to India to face trial.

    What angers and depresses me at the same time is the fact prior to the Human Wave, IS announced to the World exactly what they planned to do. There Is an example for all to see in the Quran for those who read instead of Cooler talk or watch CNNi. So, now they believe there are 5000 trained terrorists in Europe. What about the number being at least 10,000, that number equals about 1% of the number of ‘Refugees’ who came in and a very plausible percentage. 10,000 terrorists equals a Division in Army terms, forgetting about the politicians if the public truly knew what a Division of trained fighters with a plan or multiple plans, spontaneously acting it out; they would overthrow their governments tomorrow. Yet Merkel keeps calling for more. What’s in it for her? No one behaves this way unless they have a vested interest or are psychotic.

    Not real comforting knowing that they can get away and stay free for so long….all the more reason to keep them permanently on the other side of a very big wall.
