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

Germany: Muslim arrested for Islamic State plot to explode nail-filled bomb at town festival

Aug 17, 2016 2:04 pm By Robert Spencer

Germany’s slow suicide continues. Every time one of these jihad plots is successful, Angela Merkel should stand up and take a bow.

Eisenhüttenstadt

“German police seize explosives, detain suspected Islamist for plotting attack on festival – reports,” RT, August 17, 2016 (thanks to David):

A man has been reportedly detained by German police over plans to carry out a terrorist attack at a festival in the town of Eisenhuttenstadt. Explosives have been found in the suspect’s apartment, local media say, citing police.

Police have also found materials linked to Islamic State (IS, former ISIS/ISIL) as the search of the suspect’s apartment continues, German media report. According to news agency DPA, the suspect had a Salafist background and was under police supervision.

The suspect reportedly planned to set off an improvised explosive device filled with nails at a festival in Eisenhuttenstadt that was due to take place on August 26-28.

Eisenhuttenstadt is a town with 30,000 inhabitants located on the German border with Poland, 120km from Berlin. It also hosts the central refugee reception center in the German region of Brandenburg.

Brandenburg Prime Minister Dietmar Woidke confirmed the arrest and told journalists that a “police operation was carried out on suspicion of [a man] possessing explosives and preparing a terrorist attack,” as reported by Tagesspiegel daily. The person detained is suspected of having links to Islamists….

    It’s hard to know what to say now.Everything that can be said has been said.
    The people of Germany must now,thanks to Chancellor Angela Merkel, and the Christian Democratic Party play the lottery of death.
    Looking at the choice Germans have of political parties they are all tied to religious and left of centre parties.The nearest anti immigration party is the AFG party Alternative for Germany which has marginally increased its support but nowhere near Merkel’s party
    Merkel’s party is still ahead in the polls I believe.Is it going to take a horrible atrocity to make the German people see sense and force her to resign. I sincerely hope not !

    Just as in the case of the Syrian bomber, the authorities must now be wondering whether the Muhammadan was a lone wolf trying to commit suicide or a terrorist attack.

    Likely BBC headline: Intolerant Germans crackdown on cultural practices.

    Not much info on the perp, I see – probably because of this:

    Eisenhuttenstadt… also hosts the central refugee reception center in the German region of Brandenburg.

    What are the odds the perp is a muslim asylum seeker?

      Er…according to my information, this guy is actually a native German who converted to the Most Peaceful Religion Of The World – then all of a sudden came up with the idea to go and blow up some of his fellow Germans.

        Thank you for the additional info, Mockingjay.

    Deport, deport, deport.

    Muslims simply have no place in Europe at all.

    No doubt the mohomo-apologists will claim that this generous soul was cruelly thwarted in a sincere attempt to distrubute free nails to the needy.

    Oh, but surely the man was arrested for planning actions that had “nothing to do with Islam.” Or maybe he was “mentally unstable.” Or maybe this time the authorities will tell the truth, about Islam, about Sharia, about the Islamic “religion,” a “religion” that is really an ideology aiming at world domination. (You think that’s a nonsensical statement? Read the Qu’ran.)

    When will Germans realize they owe the Mohammedans nothing?
