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

UK: Muslim who went on stabbing rampage had photo of beheaded soldier

Jun 1, 2016 2:42 pm By Robert Spencer

“As he was hit, he said: ‘Allahu Akbar.'” But the primary coverage at the time revolved around a bystander who shouted “You ain’t no Muslim, bruv,” while Mire was stabbing people. The man who shouted was widely reported to be a “moderate” Muslim, but he turned out to be just another Infidel imam, a la John Kerry, Joe Biden, David Cameron, etc.

“Tube Knifeman ‘Had Lee Rigby Image On Phone,'” Sky News, June 1, 2016:

An image of murdered soldier Lee Rigby was found on the phone of a man who carried out a knife attack at a Tube station, a jury has heard.

Muhiddin Mire went on a rampage with the blade at Leytonstone station on 5 December last year, cutting the throat of musician Lyle Zimmerman so that his windpipe was exposed, the Old Bailey heard.

Prosecutor Jonathan Rees QC told the court police found material linked to Islamic State on the 30-year-old’s phone, including images of the IS militant who became known as Jihadi John, as well as a picture of Fusilier Rigby.

Prosecutor Jonathan Rees QC said: “The contents of the defendant’s phone, when looked at alongside what he said during the course of the incident … provides an insight as to what motivated the defendant to do what he did, and what he was seeking to do, to Mr Zimmerman.”

The whole incident was captured on CCTV and by a member of the public on his phone.

The court was shown dramatic footage of police officers firing Tasers at Mire three times before he was brought to the floor.

As he was hit, he said: “Allahu Akbar” [“God is great”].

As Mire was led away by police, he said: “This is for Syria, for my Muslim brothers,” and explained that his actions were in response to the bombings of hospitals in the country, the jury was told.

At the time of the attack, Mr Zimmerman was on his way to a gig and was carrying a small amplifier, mandolin and electric guitar.

He suffered a “deep and ragged wound” to his neck which exposed his windpipe, the court was told.

Giving evidence from behind a screen, Mr Zimmerman said: “I remember that I started to yell for help. I remember being forced down, but I don’t remember whether I was punched or shoved.”

He told the court he got “into as near as a foetal position” as he could and tried to protect his head.

Mr Zimmerman said he was kicked around six times, and they were “very, very violent kicks”.

As well as the injuries to his neck, the attack caused a fault in his vision, a cracked tooth and bruising to his face.

Mr Zimmerman, who was helped by a doctor who happened to be at the station, added: “I feel I was very lucky with the junior doctor passing by and my medical care afterwards and I’m determined not to be … changed by it.”

Louise McGuinness, who witnessed the attack, said: “He pulled the blade in and out across the throat but no cut was made and no blood appeared.

“I watched as he began to saw through the man’s neck six or seven times. This time blood did come. I could literally hear the man’s skin ripping open. Blood began to flow.”

She said Mire pointed at her and said “you’re next” when she shouted “stop, you a*******” at him.

Mire was filmed outside the station by Daniel Bielinski, who can be heard screaming “call for police” in the five-minute clip….

    As Mire was led away by police, he said: “This is for Syria, for my Muslim brothers,”

    Let me guess: mental illness?

    British TV New Channels are showing the recording of this piece of shyte attacking people.

    Only thing, every Allah Akhbar howl has been edited out and the attack made to look like the actions of a deranged man, who really needs our sympathy and help.

    Muhiddin Mire is AGGRIEVED because disbelieving, dirty KAFIRS exist and are RESISTING the jihad.

    How dare they resist the cause of Allah? They should be exterminated!

    Leftarded cultural Marxists refuse to get it. THE EXISTENCE OF KAFIRS is the grievance…not ‘marginalization’. Muslims want to marginalize the CULTURAL MARXISTS!

    Leytonstone station is more or less just up the road from me. Used to be a nice area once, the birthplace of Alfred Hitchcock and a few other notables. Not much crime in those days, no murders to speak of (can’t think where Hitrchcock got his ideas from), and everyone behaved themselves. And went to church! Not anymore. Leytonstone was also the backdrop to another piece of charming muslim in-fighting a year or two back when a gang of them hunted down someone who’d upset them, pulled him down in the street and poured acid down his throat. The locals got him to hospital, but he didn’t last long. And it was just outside Leytonstone station (or was it Leyton, the next stop down the line?) where a young woman was surrounded by 6-8 muslim men and sexually abused until a passer-by stopped their fun. She was advised by the local police not to make a formal complaint because (I quote the officer advising her) she’d ‘have to stand up in court and testify against them”. They didn’t tell us the name of the police officer concerned. I don’t read the local paper, so I guess that there might be plenty more of this sort of thing going on!

    So this is the new action-packed east London, courtesy (to quite a large extent at least) of our new-found friends of Mohammed. Well, it must have ben a bit boring before. And, if he were around now, Alfred Hitchcock wouldn’t have had to leave these shores to make his name. He could make ‘Psycho II’ just by waiting outside Leytonstone station with his camera.

      The British police are rapidly turning into little more than Muslim arse wipes. Got to protect the Muslims at all costs and stomp on all those hateful Islamophobes..

      Leytonstone was no centre of peace, love and light inyears gone by. For a start, it was the base of the British fascist ultra-right for years after WW2, before they cluttered off to the seaside in Brighton a decade or so back. For all their ‘patriotic’ rhetoric and St. George’s flags, what do they do about the IslamoSwine invading their patches? Nuffink, coz we orl hate der chooze togevver, know wot I mean?

      What puzzles me is that the eastern part of London used to be ‘well hard’, with punching people around as hobby, pastime, and means of communication. Now, the brainwashed, unwashed lackwits just stand around and film proceedings on their phones – heaven forfend that they intervene, show a bit of spine. In the Rigby incident, a woman was the only one to confront the murderers, and here a woman is the only one to get in the attacker’s face. Brave folks, the only ones in today’s UK with balls.

        Can’t really agree with some of that. That part of east London was never a den or righteousness (nowhere is!) but you could walk around at night in the 1950’s and 60’s (and a bit later) without much fear of being mugged/attacked and the place still had an air of faded almost-genteel civility most of the time. I know. I used to walk around the place. And the ‘fascist ultra-right’ (National Front, etc) boys weren’t exactly to be seen on every street corner – the usual place for them to appear was in the local press, unless you were actually looking for them. Your description sounds more like the real ‘East End’ (about 3+ miles west) where Moseley & chums hung out pre-war, and post-war where the Krays, associated dissidents and their ilk existed, and even that seemed more civilised than in recent years (according to my ageing ex-East Ender neighbour). Or maybe it sounds like deprived parts of post-war inner-city south London (of Teddy Boy fame), but not that outer part of east London. Now, of course, it’s a completely different story.

    Well, what a mystery. What could have motivated him to do such a thing? I don’t expect the media will enlighten us.

    First let’s get this in context.
    All Muslims are filthy liars despite BBC claims otherwise.

    He said, “This is for Syria …”
    That is merely an excuse for every pious Muslim’s desire to kill something or someone.
