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

Belgium: Knifeman attacks two officers in jihadi hotbed Molenbeek, police say no indication attack terror-related

Sep 7, 2016 12:39 pm By Robert Spencer

“Officials in the Belgian capital said there was no immediate indication the attack was terror-related but the location of the incident will raise fears it was Islamist-inspired.” Yes, that and the fact that after virtually every jihad terror attack, authorities say it was not terror-related. If law enforcement and government officials didn’t have such a long (and daily lengthening) record of dishonesty, they might be worth trusting in individual cases. Instead, each new incident like this one brings new suspicions of a coverup.

Molenbeek2

“Police attacked by knifeman in terror-hit Brussels suburb,” by Tom Batchelor, Express, September 7, 2016:

The attacker launched at the two officers with a knife but they avoided injury thanks to the protective vests they were wearing.

Officials in the Belgian capital said there was no immediate indication the attack was terror-related but the location of the incident will raise fears it was Islamist-inspired.

Molenbeek was the focus of operations late last year and in early 2016 to root out extremists based in Brussels.

A spokeswoman for the Brussels prosecutors office said the assailant had said nothing and the case had not been transferred to counter-terrorism specialists.

Several of the attackers involved in the Islamic State-organised Paris massacre last November lived in the poor neighbourhood….

    Clearly, the jihadi is mentally ill, as he mistook a knife for a bouquet of flowers. He just want to share the love and peace of Islam with them. Lies, and more lies will make governments illegitimate.

      Oh. the poor man.!!!!!

      He must, immediately be sent to an institution where he will receive all the love, care and understanding he deserves.

      A nice private room with all mod cons, 5 halal meals a day, the services of a personal imam to remind him that Islam is the religion of love, peace and compassion. His human rights must be protected by allowing him to have regular conjugal visits from his four wives.

      Of course, its the duty of all us vile kaffirs, lesser than apes and dogs, to pay for this poor, disadvantaged and discriminated against Muslim’s care.

      Pope Francis will bless you and remember you in his prayers, for taking such good care of one of his Muslim lambs.

        When muslims attack police officers or soldiers it is an act of war, jihad, against the infidels, so it is accurate to call these attacks – Jihad attacks. Since these acts are meant to terrorize our police, it is also accurate to call them terror attacks.

        In the USA, when Black man attack the police inspired by BLM members, it is correct to label these as terrorist attacks.

          What I am hoping for is that the muslims kill ALL the police… Then the citizens will have a clear path to eliminating the politicians who started this and removing the “invaders” by any and all means necessary…

    “… no immediate indication the attack was terror-related but the location of the incident will raise fears it was Islamist-inspired.”

    so, how many angels can sit on the ends of a pin, politicians/media?

    They report what they want to report. Period

      Europe has been conquered. The EU puppet leaders are ruling by proxy controlled by globalists and Muslim top dogs. Police enable crime by doing nothing. Soon, mass killing and mayhem, female slavery and installing a caliphate uniting Europe with the middle east and other Muslim nations. Euro males are cowards, decadent and do nothing to stand up for their country or family. Europeans let it happen now Muslims rule and the leaders will convert or be killed.

        Don’t preach submission and surrender yet. The tide appears to be slowly turning in some places. Norway and Australia are deporting Mohammedans, there’s Brexit in the UK, and the recent German elections skewed almost entirely against Merkel’s party, and even she acknowledged that this was almost entirely because of her immigration policy.

        Signs of life…

        How about people not converting, but killing the filth. We must pray for a miracle from “our” God and his Son. Part of that miracle would be the complete awakening of Americans, Christians, patriots, good people everywhere. I cannot understand how or why good people sit on their asses and wait like a dumb sheep to be executed. We must wake up or we, our families, culture, nation will be D E A D. We need martyrs, cause we cannot fight back without losses. We will ALL die if we don’t fight like demons with God at our side. Pray and fight. No politician will help us…….or cares. Fight or someday when the enemy comes to your door there will be no one to help you left. YOU ARE DEAD. You lazy, ignorant bitches and bastards don’t even care enough to save yourself or you family.

          While you are at it read the Book of Joshua. Then follow the same instructions. Psalm 83 too! The Bible does tell us to submit. God does not expect his people to die tolerating his and our enemies.

    Mental illness. having a bad day? Or just wanting to get some attention maybe.

    Maybe the officials’ pronouncement isn’t so bad after all. The phrase “terror-related” is insipid, at best. It speaks of tactics or their outcomes, not motives. So let it be set aside with that other popular buzz term, “terrorism”, to make room for a better term:

    Islam-related

    • gravenimage says

      Sep 7, 2016 at 10:52 pm

      Alas, as a rule, those who will not even use the word “terror” seldom demur because they want to use a more accurate and robust term…

    Of course – just because al-baghdadi told muslims to attack infidels in their homeland in a variety of ways, including stabbing them, and law enforcement represents the government, doesn’t mean it’s terrorism. After all, it’s not terrorism unless they were in actual contact with someone from ISIS, right?

    Wake up Belgium. If it wasn’t Islamic Terror or Jihad and you can’t prove an insanity case then you have no motive and no case. You’re very clever Leftists. If you thought he was from a Right Leaning Political Party you would Pardon the expression crucify him.

    Off topic: The police have made an arrest in the throat slitting case in Denver, but won’t release any information about the suspect. This could well be another case of “mental illness”.
