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

France: Muslim cab driver arrested, had dynamite and Islamic State flag image

Jul 19, 2016 12:44 pm By Robert Spencer

“Police believed the driver had robbed the empty homes of several of his clients after taking them to the airport.” He may have considered that their property belonged to him by right, in lieu of the jizya payments that non-Muslims are supposed to be making to Muslims (cf. Qur’an 9:29).

Also relevant is a statement attributed to Muhammad: “I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah’s Apostle, and offer the prayers perfectly and give the obligatory charity, so if they perform that, then they save their lives and property from me except for Islamic laws and then their reckoning (accounts) will be done by Allah. (Bukhari 1.2.24)

Muhammad must fight against people until they confess that Allah is the only god and Muhammad is his messenger, and if they do, their lives and property are safe from him — in other words, if one does not confess that there is no god but Allah and Muhammad is his prophet, one’s life and property are not safe from the Muslims.

“French police find dynamite & ISIS image at home of cab driver,” RT, July 19, 2016 (thanks to Graham):

French police have arrested a Parisian taxi driver after explosives were found at his home during a raid over a separate criminal case. They also found a picture of an Islamic State flag on the phone of the man, who was on a watch list of dangerous individuals.

The 23-year-old, whose identity has not yet been revealed, was detained on Sunday at his home in the southeast of Paris, Reuters reports, citing government spokesman Stephane Le Foll.

Police came to the man’s home to question him over his suspected involvement in a burglary case. Police believed the driver had robbed the empty homes of several of his clients after taking them to the airport.

Officers searched the house on suspicion that some of the stolen goods were hidden there, but instead discovered two sticks of dynamite, as well as several detonators and cables. All of the devices were reportedly fully operational. French media say the explosives were stored dangerously as they were exposed to heat, meaning they could have detonated unintentionally. However, the explosives have now reportedly been destroyed.

In addition to the arsenal, police also found a picture of an Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) flag on the man’s cell phone, Le Foll reported.

Citing sources, Europe 1 TV channel reports that three passports and two driving licenses stolen during a burglary last week were found in the man’s car, possibly intended for use in human trafficking.

Commenting on the findings, Le Foll noted that it is too early to draw conclusions as the investigation is in progress.

“Was [it all] proof an attack was being prepared? The inquiry will tell,” the spokesman is quoted as saying.

The man is said to have already been known to French authorities. He was listed on France’s “Fiche S,” a list of several thousand people who are suspected of posing a security risk due to their radicalization….

    Yeah, he could be holding the dynamite and ISIS flag image for someone else, right? RIGHT?!?!?!

    Jesus Christ! There’s another shoe falling every day. How many people reach the “Oh shite, what have I done to my grandkids?” moment with each new installment?

      I think it makes more sense to say; “ehat have *they* done to our grandkids”, ECAW.

        Can’t agree Mirren10. Muslims do what Muslims do just like pitbull terriers. Those Europeans who have facilitated the invasion in a glow of goodness have the greater responsibility for what will happen to their grandkids.

          ”Those Europeans who have facilitated the invasion in a glow of goodness have the greater responsibility for what will happen to their grandkids.”

          Well, that’s what I meant. Not people with sense, like you, me, most people here, and thousands more, but the governments, and, as you say, the bleeding heart do-gooders who actually *welcome* this filth.

      Here’s another installment, and one which I suspect may be more widespread than we know. I was in Paris 2 weeks ago on vacation with my handicapped, wheelchair-bound son. We took a taxi from our hotel (a few blocks from the Arc de Triomphe) to the train station. Much to our dismay we couldn’t help noticing that the taxi driver, an Arab man, was heading completely in the opposite direction from the train station (which we had been to the day before). When I questioned him as to whether he misunderstood where I told him we needed to go, he threw a fit and said he was going this way because his computer tells him where the traffic is less congested. So for maybe 15 minutes I took him at his word. Then when he rolls past the Cathedral of Notre Dame (as far as you can get from our Gare du Nord train station destination without crossing the Seine River) I questioned him again (and also pointed out to him as I leaned forward enough to get a look at his computer, that his gps wasn’t even on), he again threw a fit and I think called me some unflattering names in Arabic. He did thereafter finally turn around and head back up north to the train station. However, when we reached the train station, he said the charge was 21 Euros (double what it should have been), I gave him 30 Euros and said I wanted my change, he took the opportunity, while I was helping my paralyzed son out of the cab, to drive off into the sunset. Oh yes, the same thing happened to us in London two weeks prior to this, and would you believe it was an Arab woman who took us on a joy ride in order to run up her taxi meter. My guess is they recognize us as infidels (aka dhimmis) from the U.S. and it was time for them to exact the Jizyah tax from us for being non-believers. Do tell all your friends to be aware. May the force be with you.

        You should have given him *10* Euros, and walked off into the train station.

    I hope the French counter terrorism authorities are tracing the Jihadists weapons trail, what mosque they attend, who their Imam is and what is being said in those mosques.

    They are already fighting Jihadists from behind the 8 ball and waiting for them to surface is actually the definition of suicide. Lucky this dipshots apartment did not blow up. I’m sure the council for friendly dynamite explosions would have come forward and said it was the fault of the building code for allowing there to be heat trapped in a room.

    It is a war no use trying to police it by conventional means any longer there is too much ground and lives lost already.

    Sure so smart of Mohemed to insert that part about stealing, I mean to acquire taking things that don’t belong to you because they don’t believe in the same things you do. No wonder, there are billions of adherents to this cult. Basically any muslim man can take whatever he wants, so long as it is an infidel, there is no crime involved. Never trust them ever.

    Why not deport scum bag like that back to the hell-hole country he came from? No trial, no jail, no great expense, just one way ticket to Pakistan (or Afghanistan or Syrai or….) And with him his whole family: the four wives, brothers, uncles and the camel. Well, may be let the camel stay.
