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

NYC jihad bomber spent weeks getting “Islamic education” at pro-Taliban Pakistan seminary

Sep 25, 2016 12:18 pm By Robert Spencer

This one is really going to leave New York Mayor de Blasio and other New York City authorities scratching their heads: they will be wracking their brains trying to figure out how a pious young man instructed in the Religion of Peace could have become such a spectacular misunderstander of Islam. Does he have an ex-girlfriend in Chelsea? Was he “mentally unstable”? What, oh what, could have driven him to kill?

“Chelsea bombing suspect spent weeks at Islamist seminary in Pakistan,” by Kathianne Boniello, New York Post, September 25, 2016:

The alleged New Jersey terrorist charged with trying to blow up Chelsea last weekend with homemade bombs spent weeks getting an “Islamic education” at a Pakistani seminary, according to a report.

Ahman [sic] Khan Rahami spent three weeks in Kuchlak, an area described as a longtime “hub” for the Taliban, in 2011, a security official inside the country told the Guardian.

Rahami, 28, attended lectures at the Kaan Kuwa Naqshbandi madrasa.

US authorities have been tight-lipped with details of Rahami’s trips to Pakistan, acknowledging he was married during a visit to Quetta.

Security agencies inside Pakistan have tried to “hide all details” of his visits to Quetta, one anonymous official told the Guardian….

    Actually, what they will say that he didn’t kill anybody at all. Even if he did its just a normal thing that happens in big cities. Its kind of like slipping in your bathtub or perhaps a car crash. These are much more common causes of death than terrorism don’t you know.

    I was listening to NPR the other day while on a drive, and this is what they actually were saying. Just an incompetent terrorist – poorly placed explosives that didn’t go off.

    Nothing to see here… move on.

      Typical NPR “(nothing to do with)” ROP spin.
      What is worse is when the pretend to talk about one thing such as “Islamophobia” only as an excuse to suddenly segue into to a cover up Islam’s connection to an attack by a Muslim.

    By contrast with Arcan Cretin, this guy did read the relevant Islamic texts on the topic.

    • August West says

      My guess is that we will find that Arcan Cretin also read the Islamic texts. We will probably find that he is as well versed in Islam as anybody else. It also looks like he is familiar with Islamic State propaganda based on the 10X.

      Once in politically correct (official) custody he will either:

      1 Pose with the (don’t mess with me) Muslim Zombie stare.
      2 Islamic Supremacist smirk.

      Muslims do not pull that crap when in:
      (unofficial) custody.

    Are there Christians in the U. S. Government? Where have all the Christians gone? Have they fled the cross? Christians “must pick up their cross” Get out of your pews, go into the communities and tell them about the love of Jesus and the hate of the Jihadist. It is an easy comparison. As a Christian, you are told nothing is impossible with faith. You are the bride of Christ. You must obey. You don’t want to hear at judgement: “I knew you not”

      Islam is ‘sooooooooooooo’ disgustingly smelly that …
      its defenders are pathetically desperate to cover its foul stink.

    This attack is the sneezing that comes on before the Black Plague kills 75% of the world..

    • Jay Boo says

      Let’s quarantine Muslims.
      Then we will only have 25 % to deal with after they kill off the other 75% of each other.

    If Donald Trump is racist to want to keep Muslims like this homegrown POS from retuning and keep his foreign buddies out of the US, then so are Muslims all over North Africa as well were many countries are building — WALLS.

    If the western nations had not went into the middle east after WW2 and showed them how to exploit the oil wealth under their feet, all the muslim nations would still be exactly where they were back then:.
    COPULATING with their favorite CAMEL behind the tent !
    Or sheep, goats or what ever!
    These poor deluded and demented creatures are beyond our help! STOP bringing them into our own backyards.

    Hillary, in contrast, got her Islamic Education beneath the black leather boots of a long-legged MO-Bro vixen wearing black fish-net nylon stockings and wielding a BDSM fetish whip. Hillary calls her (her “aide” ) and personal assistant.

    US authorities have been tight-lipped with details of Rahami’s trips to Pakistan, acknowledging he was married during a visit to Quetta.

    They’re hiding something, probably covering their asses – they know they fumbled another one.

    As I said to a friend just after this man was arrested: if there is the slightest chance that this “hispanic” is a Moslem, the Obama authorities will do everything they can to suppress the Islamic details until AFTER Monday’s presidential debate.

    I don’t think I will ever get it. We want these people to assimulate but we clumb them together so they can maintain thier hatret towards Christians and Jews. Why are they protected and the born US Citizens are treated like aliens in our own country. We will be a Muslim nation in about 50 years if Jesus does’t show up first. The legal and illegal aliens have more rights than a born citizen have. Muslims are not forced to buy health insurance and are not fined for not having any. How is this right. How can we support these people and we are getting deeper into dept. We must stop this crazy nonsense. This country will be like all other nations that are socialist. Long lines for food. We should have never let our manufacturers to leave this country. We won’t be able to get the machines going when we are cut off by countries we owe. The banks won’t keep lending money to people who can’t pay back, what makes us think China will feed us when we no longer can give them something in return. Oh yeah we probably will sell a state or two. Nothing surprises me anymore with the Godless Country. We have spit the Son of God in the face and He went through so much for all of us even the Muslims who don’t know Him.

    The FBI blew it again in not joining the dots. As for the Mayor and Governor that “no links to international terrorism” statement is looking a little ragged.

    Just LOOK at that “man’s” photo, at the top of this article. There is no human soul behind those eyes!
    He has the same look, as the 9/11 murderers did. The same dead and soulless eyes.
    I am convinced, that these “people” have lost any human soul they may have had and are now in the control of pure, spiritual EVIL. There can be no other explaination for this horrific behavior.
