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

Brussels: Muslim stabs two police officers, prosecutors say “we have reason to believe that the incident was a terrorist attack”

Oct 5, 2016 1:24 pm By Robert Spencer

No kidding, really? “Reason to believe that the incident was a terrorist attack”? But isn’t this guy mentally ill? What’s happening — an outbreak of truth in Brussels?

The Islamic State issued this call in September 2014:

So O muwahhid, do not let this battle pass you by wherever you may be. You must strike the soldiers, patrons, and troops of the tawaghit. Strike their police, security, and intelligence members, as well as their treacherous agents. Destroy their beds. Embitter their lives for them and busy them with themselves. If you can kill a disbelieving American or European — especially the spiteful and filthy French — or an Australian, or a Canadian, or any other disbeliever from the disbelievers waging war, including the citizens of the countries that entered into a coalition against the Islamic State, then rely upon Allah, and kill him in any manner or way however it may be….If you are not able to find an IED or a bullet, then single out the disbelieving American, Frenchman, or any of their allies. Smash his head with a rock, or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car, or throw him down from a high place, or choke him, or poison him….

This jihadi “served as a Belgian army officer until 2009.” No one would have dared to question his loyalty. That would have been “Islamophobic.”

brussels-stabbing“Brussels police stabbed in ‘terror attack,'” BBC, October 5, 2016:

Two police officers have been stabbed in Brussels in a possible terrorist incident, Belgian prosecutors say.

One officer was stabbed in the neck and another in the stomach, while a third officer who arrived at the scene in Schaerbeek district suffered a broken nose, Belgian broadcaster VRT reports.

The attacker was shot in the leg and taken away by ambulance.

Authorities have named the attacker as “Hicham D”, 43, of Belgian nationality.

Belgian media report that Hicham D is known to Belgian police and is believed to have links to jihadists who travelled to Syria to fight. He also served as a Belgian army officer until 2009.

“We have reason to believe that the incident was a terrorist attack,” a spokesman for the Belgian federal prosecutor’s office, Eric Van Der Sypt, said….

    I am wondering what of the jihadists set off a dirty bomb… how would they white wash that? m

      The same way they whitewash every other dirty deed by muslims, with lies, obfuscations, and denials.

    More Islamic violence carried out by another jihad-minded Muslim. In other words more heinously violent fruits of Islam. Moreover, those who even attempt to stad police officers must have murderous intentions. They are blatant villains. The Bible teaches that a murderer “will not inherit the kingdom of God. “ Galatians 5:21. Furthermore, in the Bible in Romans 13: 1, 2 it is written “Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. Therefore, whoever resists the authority resist resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves.” [N.K.J.V.] In addition to all this, in verses 3 and 4 in this same chapter of the Epistle of Romans, with emphasis on verse 4 it actually refers to governmental law enforcement officers as a type of “ministers of God” Therefore, it stands to reason that engaging in violence towards police officers are really, engaging in violence towards ministers of God. How evil, how heinously wicked, how demonic, how monstrous. What and affront to all that is decent, good and right.

    If there was a farting noise in the elevator and a stench to follow, would these geniuses say: “we have reason to believe that someone has flatulence?”

    Good gravy!

    This is our new reality, swamped by muslim violence and murder for islam. We’re supposed to feel bad for not wanting muslims in our nation(s), even though their cultural traditions and religion are more violent than any other in history and they are killing/raping/destroying us left and right. Their religious doctrines teach violence and murder against us and their culture is built around their murderous contempt for everyone else’s. So should we be surprised by another stabbing by a muslim jihadist? Not really, it’s all “part and parcel” of living in a big city, just ask the muslim mayor of London. And that’s exactly what we would expect him to say, because he knows better than anyone that living with muslims means living with violence. Let’s just all be good infidels and acquiesce to the murderous hatred they bring, let’s not defend our morals, our culture, or our nation. Let’s be multicultural and die, that’s what we’re being asked to do.

    I don’t think so.

      Islam is the bastard son of muhammad’s murderous criminality and muslims’ desire to compel others into living the same depraved and ignorant life they live. Muslims have been kept in ignorance for centuries, that’s why we see so many appalling human rights violations for islam. They still think like stupid medievalists for religion. Time to start calling a spade a spade, islam is a barbaric and cruel belief system that perpetuates ignorance and violence to keep muslims down. Too many muslims are convinced that it’s the right thing to do, kill and abuse us for their god and prophet. It’s up to us to show them why they’re wrong. And we do that by standing firm for the values that make us great, not by making excuses for those who challenge us with a fascist doctrine of hate and murder. This is a no-brainer. But this hasn’t stopped the left from bluffing and shilling in a thousand different ways to protect them. If I wasn’t so angry I’d feel sad.

        But why are the American public not seeing through Hillary Clinton’s alleged “feminist” principles and her denigration of Trump for allegedly being mysogynist ?

        She has received millions in funding from Saudi Arabia and Qatar for the Clinton Foundation.
        Millions from a country where women are routinely treated as lesser beings, stoned to death for getting raped, where gay men are routinely put to death, where women are not allowed to go out in public without their husbands/fathers/owners or to drive cars.

        I don’t think Mr Trump has ever committed these sort of offences against women and yet he is the one being portrayed as mysogynist and no-one remarks upon Clinton’s accemptance of funds from sources which treat women as mere chattels.

          I know, she should change her name to ” the amazing unscrupulous bitch.” Not only does she take the money she shills for islam like a good leftist traitor should:

          “Let’s be clear: Islam is not our adversary. Muslims are peaceful and tolerant people and have nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism.” amazing unscrupulous bitch.

          Islam is the fastest-growing religion in America, a guide and pillar of stability for many of our people… amazing unscrupulous bitch.

          The only way islam could be a “guide and pillar of stability” is if one did the opposite of what it says to do. That is, don’t war against and oppress others as islam demands, instead grant others freedom to choose their own spiritual path without duress. And the fact that it might be the “fastest growing religion” is no defense for the evil contained therein, we all know how popular evil can be. And let’s be clear, hillary, islam is our adversary. Their quran and hadith is to them what our constitution and bill of rights is to us. If our constitution said in a hundred different ways “slay the muslims” I doubt the world would see us as a “peaceful and tolerant people.” Any people that respect such violent, bigoted teachings as godly truth to be followed are neither peaceful nor tolerant. And that’s why so many are killed and suffering for islam today, because their religion proffers violence as divine revelation. Hillary and her leftist allies have betrayed America by defending an ideology that threatens our constitution and our lives. They have made their stance on the issue plain for all to see, they are against our human rights and our nation’s prosperity.

    What is this more vicious violence carried out by Muslim who is trying to engage in the jihad for Islam ? The secular press would call this any violent jihadist /Muslim by the fake word an “Islamist.” This leads to the question is the secular press in infiltrated by Muslims that false and fake words are use by the news media to hide the violent and deadly nature of Islam ? Could it also be the the news media people are just afraid of being on the receiving end of Islamic violence ? In addition, there are inappropriate terms that are very unfitting to describe Islam used by the secular press . Such as the term “Radical Islam.” This so called “Radical Islam” is ,in reality hard -core, jihad ,non-watered Islam which is violent and deadly and therefore a great evil. The the press also uses the false term “Moderate Islam.” This so called “Moderate Islam” is ,in reality, just a watered -down mile form of Islam. So this later type of Islam is the lesser of the two evils. Nevertheless the lesser of two evils is still evil. The case in point is that this mild nonviolent form of Islam is still demonically deceptive because it still denies the basis Bible teaching about the Nature of Jesus. Likewise both kind of Islam denial the Bible accounts and dogma of the crucifixion death burial and resurrection of Jesus from the the dead. First Corinthians 15:1-8. Also Islam denies the blood atonement of Jesus for the forgiveness of a person sins. First John 1:7. Therefore with all kind of Islam a Muslim may be able to have strong sincere religious feeling yet still go to hell after death because that person was terrible led astray by the false doctrine of Islam, Proverbs 14:12. John 14:6.

    So it should further be added that about Muslim clerics, be they living in Belgium, the UK or the USA or if they are the mullahs of Iran and Afghanistan or the imams of Pakistan, Egypt and Saudi Arabia or any other country. All those Muslims clerics are, according to the doctrines of the Bible, Isaiah 8:20. false religious teachers .Meaning false teachers who teach and indoctrinate the false doctrines of the false religion of Islam into the hearts and minds of others . Such false teachers are described in the Bible ,in Second Peter 2:1. “There were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.” [K.J.V.]
    Therefore, to reply to the many different claims made by the imams and mullahs as well as the other apologists for Islam there is the Christian internet site. It’s http://www.answering-islam.org
    In addition, it should be make clear that in the context and meaning of the above Bible verse Second Peter 2:1. The word “destruction” does not mean “loss of being but loss of well-being ,as the destruction of well- being . That is “going to ruin” by ending up and a terrible place of awful suffering which the Bible call hell, Luke 16:19-31.

    ”This jihadi “served as a Belgian army officer until 2009.”

    And how many more are *still* serving in the Belgian Army ? Not to mention the Police, and the Air Force. Ticking time bombs.

        That’s right, now it’s “islamophobic,” but in 20 years it will be illegal. That’s when our heads start to roll.

    A shame it was two police; would have been better if some left wingers in either the Belgian parliament or the EU parliament or EU bureaucrats.

    They are pro Muzzie and anti_israel, so would serve them right.

      I’m afraid that I don’t think that Muslims attacking and trying to murder Parliamentarians would help our cause in the least. Muslims would celebrate, no matter the politics of the victims.

    He also served as a Belgian army officer until 2009.

    Belgians should feel lucky they didn’t had their own Fort Hood incident, and they should start looking into his coreligionists still serving in the Belgian army. And law enforcement. And any other governmental branch.

    ……………………………….

    Indeed so. Here’s another call for just such attacks:

    “Islamic State calls for random knife attacks in alleys, forests, beaches, ‘quiet neighborhoods’”

    Robert can you follow up on this story?

    What rank did this person hold in the Belgian army? Is he a convert to Islam or was he born into Islam? Was he born in Belgium? Or is he an immigrant? If an immigrant, from where and when did he migrate to Belgium?

    There are many other questions that also arise from this.
