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

Police in Canada decry closing of bomb data center now needed in jihadi case of Aaron Driver

Aug 14, 2016 2:23 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

The investigation continues into the Aaron Driver jihadi terror case in Canada. Investigators are searching for clues about where Driver — who pledged allegiance to the Islamic State — learned his bomb-making techniques, clues that could potentially lead to information about other jihadis, and even “criminal charges against those who disseminate bomb-making information….Tracking the signatures of bomb-makers, and maintaining a database of them, was just one of the roles of the Canadian Bomb Data Centre” (CBDC) which was shut down when “an external panel of law enforcement advisers from across Canada ranked it of lower importance to police operations.”

In other words, it wasn’t deemed worthy to be included in the budget. But now, the Calgary Police Commission is tabling a resolution to reopen the CBDC. The resolution states that Governments should “amplify, rather than diminish, efforts in combating terrorism globally.”

In looking at the validity about budgetary constraints in the closing of the CBDC, consider this: in an article from the usually liberal-friendly Huffington Post, Trudeau’s lavish spending during his first 100 days as Prime Minister was reported to be 5.3 billion dollars, “of which slightly less than a billion dollars was spent inside Canada”; a staggering sum! Yet Canada’s only bomb data center wasn’t worth saving during a global war on terror, as the Prime Minister embarked upon a Liberal kid-in-the-candy-store spending spree of 5.3 billion dollars of taxpayers’ hard-earned cash.

To provide a little further insight about where Canadian tax dollars are going: they went to a conference purveying anti-Semitic trash; the Jewish group, B’nai Brith, called out the Feds for sponsoring this annual World Forum event for “promoting antisemitism and the anti-Israel boycott movement.” Even more heinous was the imagery used in promoting the event, which was described by B’nai Brith as a “blatantly antisemitic caricature that depicts a Wahhabi terrorist emerging from the mouth of American mascot Uncle Sam, who in turn emerges from the mouth of a stereotypical ultra-Orthodox Jew with a Star of David emblazoned on his hat.”

If that wasn’t bad enough, B’nai Brith went on to describe the agenda at the shocking conference:

“One workshop — entitled “Terrorizm [sic], Wahabbism, Zionism” — will seek to explore what it says is how Wahhabis are “mercenaries of Saudi in the service of world Zionism-capitalism…They cooperate for misrepresentation, by accus[ing] Palestinian freedom fighters by terrorism and legitimization crimes of fundamentalist regime in Israel.

Another workshop, on “the Israel Lobby’s war on Palestine solidarity and how best to resist,” features Diana Ralph, whom B’nai B’rith Canada called “a leading Canadian conspiracy theorist who has blamed Israel for staging the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.”

The disgraced  German Chancellor Angela Merkel may as well defect to the North American continent. She’ll be right at home with her fellow immoral liberal cronies and gutless cowards who are facilitating the West’s demise, in doing the bidding of our worst enemies and carefully manipulating the public with excuses and deceptions under the banner of multiculturalism and politically correct slogans. If only the crime of treason were still one that anyone wished to prosecute.

canadian bomb data center--calls to reopen

“Closure of RCMP bomb data centre lamented by police”, by Evan Dyer, CBC News, August 13, 2016:

Following the Aaron Driver case in Strathroy, Ont., this week, investigators presumably have two important pieces of evidence in their hands: an unexploded bomb of some kind; and the remnants of a device that detonated in a taxi.

Both will offer clues about where Driver learned his bomb-making techniques. Those clues could potentially point to links with other jihadis, or even criminal charges against those who disseminate bomb-making information.

A bomb-maker’s “signature” could be the way he tapes his batteries, solders his wires, or selects a particular brand of watch or cellphone.

Tracking the signatures of bomb-makers, and maintaining a database of them, was just one of the roles of the Canadian Bomb Data Centre, which closed in April due to budgetary constraints. The centre had operated since 1974, when it was set up in response to the bombing campaign of the FLQ.

RCMP Cpl. Annie Delisle says, “As part of its review of the CBDC, the RCMP took into consideration that an external panel of law enforcement advisers from across Canada ranked it of lower importance to police operations. Some of the core services formerly provided by the CBDC will be absorbed into other areas of the RCMP.”
Calgary police: Please reconsider

But not all Canadian police services agree there’s no need for a national forensic centre specializing in bombs and explosives.

This weekend, at the annual meeting of the Canadian Association for Police Governance, the Calgary Police Commission is tabling a resolution asking for the centre to reopen.

“Closure of the centre means police agencies no longer have access to co-ordinated information, resources and expertise at a time when it’s becoming increasingly important to have a centralized source for information about the criminal use of explosives,” says the resolution.

Governments should “amplify, rather than diminish, efforts in combating terrorism globally.”

Calgary Police Commission chair Howie Shikaze told CBC News he hopes to persuade other cities to back his campaign to bring the centre back.

“The Calgary Police Service believes it’s an important institution to keep intact. It acts as a place to combine technical expertise, and by combining all of the resources into that one place, what you end up with are resident experts”…

    100 Days 50,000 Refugees on the way. Army barracks soldiers out Refugees in or at best soldiers double up welcome non-vetted Refugees young strong men peers to Canadian Men in uniform. In fact these Refugees may be the tip of the Hijra trained former combat experienced able to scout out Military bases and units non-military experienced Trudeau! Then let’s handicap first responders operations investigations and and allow the the most rabid Anti-Semitic Anti-Democracy /Capital. Despite your own Rule 56 to stifle Free Speech it is selectively applied when curtailing Anti-Semitism. It’s true use is to Stop any language perceived critical if Islam, Muslims Jihad The Left/Islamic Axis an interesting disparate of values and goals to begin with except for Hatred of the infidel and “religion”, Western values and Euro/Russian a Dominance plus Capitalism (70 years of failed Communism and Socialism wasn’t long rough of an experiment) the 57 Representations of a Sharia run or partially Sharia run Society Religious, Political, Economic with concentrations of wealth amongst very few must be very attractive to the Left, Muslims born into Western Societies romanticizing over an unvisited Green Pasture, and a real danger the Muslim who left the Sharia Governed Islamic Country but the Sharia burning inside him was never left behind and now that many more Muslims share the same Country the time has come to spread the torch of Jihad. You, Trudeau laugh at such a concept that can get ones head cut off or incremental Sharia introduced into schools by threat, maybe a ban on Muslims working with Alcohol though it’s their job so alternatives need to found for them or mug shots wearing a Hijab or Burka no end to demands and lunacy until they are in control young man.

    But a gun registry is more important, 2 billion dollars spent, it saved no one, they still hanker after one, as per Quebec, but a bomb database is a waste of time and money. Just more great progressive logic.

    Since so often there is intramural fighting within the various sects of Islam, poetic justice would have Trudeau blown up somewhere by a bomb made by a Muslim immigrant to Canada. The same holds true, of course, to Obama, Merkel and their accomplices

    Speaking of Drivers…
    Québec: “Syrian” refugees can’t pass driving tests,
    but drive anyway!


    And PM Trudeau wants to bring in 50,000 Syrian refugees for 4 years. Interesting. Oh, and speaking of Québec, don’t do an internet search on Montreal rapist — you won’t like what you find…

    Canada, cash strapped and over-burdened by illiterate Muslim immigrants, had to divert funds from bomb data analysis, to supporting this very same group who will bomb them.

    We live in such irony rich times, you have to stop and smell the roses. That’s rich with it.

    More on Canadian PM Trudeau:
    Trudeau still silent about thwarted Canadian attack
    (he was on vacation).


    You’d think a prime minister would at least address his country in a televised response following something like this Strathroy, Ontario terror threat…

    THERE IS ANOTHER THEORY AS TO WHY WESTERN LEADERS ARE SUPPORTING HE RELIGION WHICH MURDERS THEIR PEOPLE I HATE CONSPIRACY THEORIES, BUT HERE IS THAT THEORY: THESE PEOPLE ARE EXTREME LEFTISTS-SOCIALISTS OR BORDERLINE, OR ACTUAL, COMMUNISTS. THEY HAVE LONG-HELD YEARNINGS FOR THEIR ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL IDEOLOGIES TO TAKE HOLD ALL OVER THE WORLD, SO THAT THERE IS A UNIFORMITY OF BELIEF IN THINGS LIKE OVERARCHING GOVERNMENT NANNYISM AND ECONOMIC CONTROL OF THE MEANS OF PRODUCTION. ONE OPPORTUNITY FOR THEM (AND THEY NEVER GIVE UP HOPE, REGARDLESS OF THE MANY DEFEATS THEY HAVE UNDERGONE) IS MUCH DISORDER, TURMOIL, AND INSTABILITY WORLDWIDE. THIS IS HOW LENIN AND MARX SAID THERE IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE OVER. THE PEOPLE WILL BE WEAKENED. AND A NEW FORM OF GOVERNMENT IS SNEAKILY INSERTED INTO THE “COMMUNITY”. THIS IS WHAT OBAMA IS TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH-AND HE HAS DONE A PRETTY GOOD JOB.
