Mother of OSU jihad attacker says her son was killed “for no reason”

Dec 4, 2016 5:14 pm By Robert Spencer

Abdul Razak Ali Artan last week set off a fire alarm on campus, the drove his car into the crowd of students evacuating the building. Then he jumped out of his car and began stabbing people with a butcher knife. But he was a “nice young man” and “a good student”  who “had a dream to be someone to help his community and serve his community. So obviously he was killed “for no reason” because, you know, Muslims are always and in every case victims, no matter what they do. As the mother spoke, doubtless Van Jones was nodding in agreement.

“Mother Of OSU Attacker Says Her Son Was Killed ‘For No Reason,’” by Blake Stephens, Western Journalism, December 2, 2016:

On Thursday, the mother of Somali-born Ohio State University student Abdul Razak Ali Artan said before his funeral that her son was killed for “no reason.”

The 18-year-old Artan drove his car into a crowd, exited the vehicle and proceeded to attack nearby students with a butcher knife before being fatally shot by campus police officer Alan Horujko, who was the first to arrive on the scene.

Artan was the only fatality in the attack, which left 11 people injured at the campus in Columbus, Ohio.

Ahmed Sh. Ahmed, the director of the Ibn Taymia Mosque and Islamic Center where the ceremony was held, recalled Artan’s mother in tears as she kissed the body of her son for a final time before his burial.

“She was crying, and said, ‘I love you, my son. I know they kill you for no reason,’” Ahmed said.

“I asked his mom yesterday, ‘Did you see any change, any kind of change?’ and she said, ‘No, everything was normal, everything was the same,’ Ahmed told WCMH-TV in Columbus.

Ahmed said relatives and those close to Artan perceived him to be a “nice young man” and “a good student.”

He said that Artan’s aunt told him her nephew “had a dream to be someone to help his community and serve his community.”…

      I hope everyone reading this realizes this is Islam”s mantra:

      Deny everything; admit nothing; never criticise another Muslim; and cry foul at every opportunity.

      These people are actively being taught this rhetoric in the mosques.

      We teach Sunday school, they teach doomsday school!

      Now that sanity has occurred, soon Pres elect Trump will get the world into order. January 2017 should be very interesting!

          Horrifying, Kathy. You can tell that even the interviewer is taken aback when dear old mom pulls a knife out from under her scarf and starts waving it around. The interviewer wanted to focus on the supposed injustice of the house possibly being subject to demolition, but mom was threatening to stab Jews to death and happily saying that she would be thrilled if her other children–who are right there on the couch with her–are killed.

          Only Islam can take motherhood and twist it into something so utterly hideous.

      nicu, the fact is that Islam sees nothing wrong with what he did. I have yet to hear from the MSM what the “motive” of this attack was… Doubt if we ever will………Islam IS the motive.. It seems like there is a never ending whine from Muslims who want us to believe that this Islamic terrorist was just nuts..There were brief reports that he had ISIS flags, and pledged to Bagdadi !! Seems to be that matches the profile of Islamic terror…. HEY stupid bitch Muslima !!! THAT IS WHY he was killed… THANK GOD!!! Hope she backs her bags and heads back to Somila, and stays there!!! BTW take your pals with you!!

    Well, if his family actually believes this, then he lied to them too. Someone is lying…always in the *moslim community* someone is lying. They are taught to, it is drummed into their head until their eyes go dead…lie, lie and lie again.

      I hope someone bills his mother for the cost of the ammo used to shoot him.

      And the stupid little jihadi did serve a purpose. He evidently made a suitable target for the police department.

          No. She and the rest of her misbegotten family should be immediately deported. They have failed the vetting. His Imam should also be rounded up with his family and ejected. It’ll cost more but we’ll be happier with the results.

    Alriight, she and her son were not vetted properly ! How many years and by whom were they investigated ? He obviously flunked as of last week. The mother, still can’t understand why he was justifiably killed during his attack on innocent people.
    Now Deport her and any of the siblings back to country of origin.
    She absolutely does not understand our culture, liberty and freedom.
    Practice your own brand of your jihadist, demonic, pagan religion along with it’s warped, perverted political ideaology. And why we are at it Identify, Interrogate and incapacitate others of this ilk by shipping them very quickly back to their countries of origin.

    Punish the whole family. Its the only way to stop these muslims. If they want to die, its fine, but ill bet they dont want their remaining family to be deported the next day to Raqqa(minus their assets!)

      You know, in Japan if someone commits suicide by throwing themselves in front of a train, the persons family are billed for the clean up and potentially for loss of earnings caused by the delays. Now, I don’t actually agree with this but it shows that guilt by familial association is already practiced in some parts of the world. In the case of jihadis, I’d totally support action against the family as in most cases the families refuse to accept that their “good Muslim” relatives have done wrong. If they were born there there’s not much you can do but immediate deportation for immigrant families of jihadis should happen and I suspect Trump may initiate this. Let’s hope.

          They bombed Pearl Harbor when they lived under a dictatorship and the Emperor was deemed a God. Since the U.S. after WW2 removed the Shinto religion from any place in Japanese government and installed a liberal democracy — now successfully rooted in Japan for over half a century — we can emulate them where it makes sense.

          The idea–often bandied about–that Japan has banned Islam is a canard.

          Japan does not allow many immigrants in any case, and is far from Dar-al-Islam, but she still has a growing Muslim population and more Mosque building.

    • gravenimage says

      Dec 4, 2016 at 7:36 pm

      I don’t think the family should be assumed to share guilt–but they should sure as hell be thoroughly investigated for links, along with the Mosque, Islamic associations, and other associates.

      • K. says

        Dec 5, 2016 at 12:24 am

        This is our westernized thinking which puts the individual at the center. It doesn’t work for treating harmful collectivisms such as Islam. Of course the family and the whole rest is guilty as can be for breeding such murderers. That they don’t see it that way doesn’t change a thing. In the end it’s either them or us, this is war and not just another criminal case.

      • dts says

        Dec 5, 2016 at 6:44 am

        Not assumed guilt, let’s hope, but for heaven’s sakes let’s not just assume innocence either! (not that I’m saying for a moment that that is what you’re counseling here, G.I. – just agreeing emphatically with your call to look and SEE FOR OURSELVES if the friends and family check out or no. In so many cases it seems, the actual dead jihadi is just the tip of an iceberg of semi-latent hatred and part of a network of collusion at worst and silence at best, encompassing their family, mosque. etc. The left really is as fond of their “broad, white brush” with which they are hard at work on Islam as they CLAIM we are of our “broad, black brush” (makes sense, they are projectors par excellence). Speaking for myself, I do not WANT to be right about this mess of an ideology/religion/cult/political movement/whatever-have-ye but unfortunately, I am, or rather, we are, here under the “study guide” of Mr. Spencer, whose laud I cannot loudly enough sing for maintaining this neatly done site where one can so clearly see the ever so damning “big picture” Islamicus. I set out to “prove to my family that they were overreacting about Islam” and wound up even more in the “amen corner” on the topic than they are after I saw what it REALLY had to offer (and believe me folks, I was prepared to find out anything, up to and including that Islam was the misunderstood religion of peace. I just had to know who was telling the truth, and, well, it is NOT NPR 😛 ). If only I WAS just a big fruitcake, all irrationally worried about nothing – I’d prefer to be the insane one instead of having to realize that no, it’s really the suicidal, guilt-ridden culture of the latter-day Democratic party that is what’s gone insane and that’s a shame, my friends! I can afford therapy for ME, who’s going to foot the bill for the Democratic Party in toto?

        That said, we’ve really got to be willing to be less squeamish as a culture when it comes to investigating the friends and family of one of these people, just in case. I know I’d certainly expect it and pony up whatever info I had to offer if someone I knew went postal (not likely, at least not likely that they’d go Muslim postal. Plain old postal, maybe, if at all), not in the least think ill of the authorities for checking into me too – one can simply expect that much if one is in the near orbit of an exploded jihadi or some such creature, and consider that the onus is on one himself to prove that he isn’t of that ilk – tying in, here, a theme I hear a lot on here: that the “peaceful” muslims do not turn in their more bellicose brethren with any real frequency that I know if (if this situation is more hopeful than I think, please, somebody, do tell), to the detriment, really, of the whole world and which code of silence they carry entirely to far for it not to be quite suspect, even if one were not aware of themes of supra-national “umma” and “khalifa” in the canon.

        I hope this finds you all well and sleeping more soundly than yours truly. Forgive me if I wrote a piece of sleepless word-salad – I did try to proof read this, but my eyes are just dead at this point so I had to give, hit send, and trust that if you my fellow posters find this submission lacking or a redundancy or something, you’ll please have the grace to pardon me – it’s nearly 5 am where I am, and my insomnia is in high gear so I know this is sort of overwrought and disorganized among other things.

        “killed for no reason” my damn ass. Did this mother want an actual body count before there was a “reason”? Ought the officers have waited until there was an actual DOA before they neutralized this problem? Wasn’t it horrible enough for her? I know no mother wants to speak ill of their child, but what if truth and honor will permit no else? She could have chosen to say nothing at all – I know if MY child decided to go off and be a horrible monster, I’d consider the less said the better and I would pray that God forgive what I would in no way dare ask society to: my failure as a parent to instill basic morals and lawfulness, my failure as a citizen to get help for the situation when it became clear to me that there was a Real Problem (and I am certain she suspected SOMETHING – I base this on nothing other than my knowledge of mothers, however, so, maybe this one was in fact the exception – if I do her wrong in my estimation, I’m sorry).

        For once, I want the aftermath of one of these god-damned attacks to be about and only about the REAL VICTIMS, not the muslims involved, and I’ve totally had it with media ghost stories about “backlashes” etc. as if infidels were the ones waging jihad against the muslims or something. Really, that’s what one would think if they just dropped in from Mars and picked up a newspaper after one of these events and I am just beyond disgusted by now with it. I want “the plan going forward” (do people never ever say “in the future we will do…..” anymore? the “going forward” buzzphrase to my ears sounds clunky but this cranky, tired old grouch admits to picking a bit gratuitously at this point – maybe the people in question really can’t think of the phrase “in the future”, and neither are quick enough on the toes to come up with “as later developments play out” and so deserve understanding and pity rather than censure, but I assume they also went to school where they hopefully would have been taught to mix up your language a bit for variety’s sake and, really, you could have drinking-gamed the “going forwards” on NPR about two years ago and ended up needing serious help to your room by the end of the program) not to be “how best to prevent Islamophobia” but “how best to prevent Islam from generating more well-earned fear and loathing (phobia schmobia, if that isn’t a rational fear, there isn’t one!)

        Wow, what a long long post. I don’t usually do this, but what the hey. Good morning, J.W. I hope you’re all better rested than me and considerably less cold this morning 🙂 For the record, I do try to check back when I post something and see if it gathered a response or acknowledgement, but the ways of my life have serious ways of going on to ways, and what with several inadequate jobs and more house than I can keep clean all at once, all I can do is say I’ll try to respond if someone responds to me, but ask you to please not take it amiss if you leave me one and I can’t get back in time. The other, more regular posters here are a great crew and I always enjoy reading your thoughts. So different from what I expected, having heard my own share of “ghost stories” about the counter-jihad, so reasoned, so… sane, lol. Many voices here in the comments do the “counter-jihad” truly proud, imho.

      It used to be that a person from another country was required to demonstrate that he can support himself or have a family member who will guarantee his support.

    I heard- before this happened-someone on radio was talking to a law enforcement person, about :

    1. why shoot to kill- why not shoot to disarm?

    Answer–real life, not a Hollywood (or wherever) film.

    2. Why, often, after the person is shot- are more rounds pumped into him/her (my preference–piece of excrement).

    Answer- to be sure is dead- and not wounded- extra shots make sure blood gushes out-so bastard cannot get an adrenaline rush and try and get you.

    This officer took him down- what I heard-was one shot- great. And saves the cost of a trial and prison.

      You shoot to hit and shoot to stop. Another way of putting it is you shoot the perp to the ground. The most effective way to shoot to hit and stop, is to place the bullets into the chest and abdominal cavity. The fact that that is also the most effective way to kill someone is the perp’s tough luck.

    • Carolyne says

    Dec 4, 2016 at 6:01 pm

    In microcosm, demonstrating the refusal of the Islamic world to ever apologize for anything, even though it has an ENORMOUS amount, so very much, to apologize for (like this Muslim creep at OSU last week, the horridness of black African slavery and its incapacity to this very day to recognize that it is an eternal enemy of liberty).

    Islam is not only effed up but it also has a multitude of weaknesses, beginning with the assertion that that extra lethal psychopath, that total fraud, Mohammed, could possibly be the final human catalyst of a benevolent, omnipotent and all wise deity.

    You know, the incapacity to be self-reflective, which includes projection of your faults onto others, something the Islamic world is superb at, is indicative of something which should elicit, at best, pity, at worst, total scorn. Considering Islam’s horrible track record over the last 1400 some years, I would argue that no pity should be extended to Islam.

    None. Only scorn. Nothing but scorn. A hell of a lot of shame too—–forever since there is no redeeming this horrid belief system. Never.

      The Somalis are not Arabs from Arabia–so before Islam and Muhammad came calling, it looks as if they had no pre-Islamic culture. Were they that backwards? And if seems as if they were too dumb to see that Islam and the Qur’an were just a bunch of superstitious nonsense written on paper.

      This guy who got shot was just another stupid black Abd/raisin head for conman Muhammad.

        Dec 5, 2016 at 5:07 am

        This is the main issue I try to argue. How it is impossible to separate the Arabia as a culture and Islam as a religion. Once you accept Islam you are tied to think Arabian. Africa is worse of with this brainwashing, the Egyptians, the Zagrebs, Berbers, Hausa’s, Somalis all have surrendered there cultures to the Arabs once Islam took root.
        Will the Western world learn?

          Dec 5, 2016 at 11:11 am

          Agreed! People will rail about US imperialism, European colonialism, Western hegemony in an attempt to show their greater evils inflicted on the world but how many cultures has Arab conquest obliterated?

      • Carolyne says

        Dec 5, 2016 at 12:17 pm

    What was Abdul “Kidney-Bean Head” Artan studying at OSU? Answer: He was learning to be a social justice warrior (SJW). The extensive syllabus of his course of study is explained in

      Wow, Mark–thanks for the link.

      To focus on “micro-aggressions” while ignoring Muslims trying to stab you to death sort of sums up the stance of the far Left…

      That this Jihadist was studying this before he decided to go straight for the “fast Jihad” of running Infidels over and knifing them is *very* telling.

    Mother of OSU jihad attacker says her son was killed “for no reason”
    …………………………………

    Yeah–after all, he was only trying to slaughter “filthy Infidels”…

    More:

    He said that Artan’s aunt told him her nephew “had a dream to be someone to help his community and serve his community.”…
    …………………………………

    What better serves the Muslim community than waging violent Jihad? What a good Muslim…

    “..I know they kill you for no reason..’” Here is a way to test that assertion: Assuming you can even find a lawyer who is willing to be a free pariah, try suing the university and see if any court hearing will find cause for a trial.

    While I can understand this Mother’s grief and pain, that suffering cannot erase the fact her son was attempting to murder and kill. Unlike some other encounters with police, this one has many unambiguous witnesses.

    Her son “broke bad” and earned the consequences. If the son really respected his mother’s feelings, he would be alive today.

    This mother is lying and doesn’t accept responsibility for anything and is not sorry about the damage her son committed. Since she is bringing up additional children in the family what makes us certain that they would be any different than her cimonal son? The whole family should be kicked out

  20. WarEagle82 says

    Dec 4, 2016 at 8:44 pm

    Get a gun and carry everywhere you can. This mother isn’t the only one out there with a lunatic son or daughter just waiting to get their jihad on.

    They are here and they will be escalating their attacks on us and out bloody government is paying to import them, at least for now.

  21. Jack HOLAN says

    Yep, the Non-Muslim People of Ohio wake up every turn on the radio to a special wave-length so they can have a think tank about HOW they’re going to harm maybe kill Muslims especially Somali Muslims that that day. It’s going to take place just after one one of the Umma purposefully jumps a curb with his car mows down those guilty students on their way to class. When his car can’t move anymore because of the body parts some put a butcher knife in his hand and someone else moved it stabbing other guilty Infidel people of no color. He was such a good son destined to help the the Umma.
    I can respect a parent losing a child but there is more to this story. His beliefs I’m sure are not a shock to Mom nor the Imam. 18 year old by nature seek out validation. We discovered this in themselves with Mom from Boston with the 2 Bombers. If this believes he was killed for no reason and isn’t a citizen please deport her because it won’t be the last we hear of her family and Jihad. I’m curious if our dead Jihadist as a non citizen was getting a free ride at OSU and how as Somalis the wound up in Pakistan and the who suggested being a refugee to the US?

  22. Linde Barrera says

    Dec 4, 2016 at 9:53 pm

    Like all jihadists were and are, this Abdul Ali Artan is a scumbag piece of crap. And his parents should be forced to take an American parenting course, not a parenting course from the mosque.

  23. Blangwort says

    Dec 4, 2016 at 9:54 pm

    Well, attempted murder with a motor vehicle, and swinging a knife around are plenty good reasons to get shot, no matter who you are.

    This is why Somali society can’t have nice things.

  24. Stan Lee says

    Dec 4, 2016 at 10:04 pm

    I cannot count the many times I’ve asked myself, “What do these people want here?”
    They justify whatever evil they bring and the only answer I get is that it is for conquest of non-believers in Islam. A non-believer isn’t required to do any more than offend them by not being a follower of their dogma. No other reason needs to exist, no words, no acts of outright hostility, all we need be is to exist.They don’t come here to be part of the citizenry, acting like they do is strictly necessary deceit in order to attain entry and the fruits of our “Representative Republic.”.

    Name the various creeds and beliefs that make America the unique nation it is, where people abide by this nation’s civil laws and its national Constitution, and live responsibly in this nation’s freedoms, and Islam sets itself apart from all of it and looks upon all of it which is productivity, innovation, science, research, medical achievements, trade promotion with the world, a higher education system that even Muslims aspire to sending their children for such education….yet we are in their opinions, inferior to them, a lower form of life that Islam calls to conquer, use, and abuse..

    It is becoming obvious, even after extending the benefit of the doubt to them, that hate runs deep-seeded from the time they are indoctrinated that Islam is perfect and non-Muslims are inferior to them.
    The sum total of all of these differences are in their holy book, and also that book’s orders for coping with those differences. Those orders are manifested in their acts of “defending their faith” which are totally incompatible to any other religious faith or kindnesses practiced in our successful “melting pot” built by generations of loyal Americans to our exceptional Constitution.

    Of course she says her son was killed for no reason, she saw nothing wrong with his behavior in stabbing people and running them over with a car, to her he is full filling his jihad according to Islam.

  27. K. says

    Dec 5, 2016 at 12:10 am

    He did fulfill his dream and helped the community by killing unbelievers. Mommy couldn’t be more proud of her upbringing. Of course she is disappointed that he was stopped from doing so much more.

  28. davej says

    Dec 5, 2016 at 12:33 am

    Slightly off topic, I just discovered a book about the Oklahoma City Federal building bombing in 1995 that makes a pretty good case that there were connections to Islam and to the subsequent World Trade Center bombing. It is called The Third Terrorist by Jayna Davis and available on amazon. We were sold a white nationalist explanation at the time but this may not be the whole story.

    His mom said he was ‘normal’ … but what was his reading material? Was his reading material ‘NORMAL’?

    Or like the following:

    Tabari 9:69 “He who believes in Allah and His Messenger has protected his life and possessions from us. As for those who disbelieve, we will fight them forever in the Cause of Allah. Killing them is a small matter to us.”

    Ishaq:327 “Allah said, ‘A prophet must slaughter before collecting captives. A slaughtered enemy is driven from the land. Muhammad, you craved the desires of this world, its goods and the ransom captives would bring. But Allah desires killing them to manifest the religion.’”

    Hadith.Vol.4;73, Muhammad said, “Know that Paradise is under the shades of swords.”

  30. Ronen says

    Dec 5, 2016 at 1:05 am

    I’m sure we will get used to such claims soon enough, as this is the usual Muslim mantra:
    ‘We will kill you all – you filthy infidels’ + ‘We are the victims of your racism and prejudice’.

    Disgusting – do not let any more of them in your countries

  31. Champ says

    Dec 5, 2016 at 1:08 am

    No, mam, swift justice was carried out on your son! …and he’s the one that began stabbing innocent people “for no reason.”

  32. lynn says

    Dec 5, 2016 at 2:15 am

    How many of his damn family are in the US..Deport the lot..There are no secrets in most muslim communities as everyone is spying/snooping on their neighbours extended family to see if they are ‘getting more stuff etc’ off the welfare system and to make sure they are being good muslims.So to say they had no idea of his intentions is taqiyya.. Therefore their deportation is justified..
    To most muslims, there is no recognition of ’cause and effect’ it has something to do with their religion telling them that allah controls everything they do, so there is no personal responsibility in islam. That is why they can go around killing people but see themselves as victims cos their imans tell them they are.

  33. citycat says

    Dec 5, 2016 at 4:41 am

    The mother is a Muslim, she’s not going to condemn the Islamic Jihad and be seen as a traitor.
    Maybe her son was an easy touch to be persuaded to do violent Jihad, he wanted to be someone.
    There’s no smoke without fire.
    Whatever, it’s never good news from Islam to the citizen infidel.

  34. citycat says

    Dec 5, 2016 at 4:51 am

    Maybe she is disappointed because her son did not actually kill anyone. So he was killed for no reason.
    Anything at all can be used to smokescreen the truth, especially emotion during wartime, which is all days with Islam.

    “I asked his mom yesterday, ‘Did you see any change, any kind of change?’ and she said, ‘No, everything was normal, everything was the same,’ Ahmed told WCMH-TV in Columbus.

    Ahmed said relatives and those close to Artan perceived him to be a “nice young man” and “a good student.”

    Isn’t that how it always goes? “He was a good boy, he dindu nuffin!”

  36. f c king says

    Dec 5, 2016 at 5:18 am

    I would have done exactly the same as the fine, quick – thinking campus police officer. He is to be commended for ending this attempted mass-murder. He should be proud of himself.

    Mommy is a typical true believer, as are most of these primitives from somalia and other muslim nations. They truely believe they can do no wrong if it involves killing infidels. Perhaps her son was gay, and was discovered by another muslim, like mom or dad ? The only way out for a muslim is to kill infidels for allah and holy mo, and go straight to heaven, where he and it’s ok. gets to continue being gay and it’s ok. I mean no insult to gay people at all here. I’m just using this very clasic example of primitive muslim behavior and reasoning.This is what drove to muslim to kill all the people in the gay club in Florida. There are many other sins that can be atoned and forgiven by killing infidels.
    Hopefully Trump will close the gate to future somali migrants, and deport all of the ones that were allowed to stay after being busted for fraud and not being related to their sponsors here. Their sponsors and their kids must go to.

    • Carolyne says

      Dec 5, 2016 at 12:30 pm

      It has happened time and time again. A Muslim commits a horrific crime against American citizens. The FBI questions his wife or mother and releases them, even though there is no way they could not have know of their relative’s intent. Boston bombing–Wife released. Orlando–wife released–Boston bombing–Mother who looked like the wicked witch from the Wizard of Oz released to return to Russia. These crimes do not occur in a vacuum. I think the wives and mothers ae released because they are female, not because they are innocent. It’s time to understand that both sexes engage in jihad.

  37. LR says

    Mom should be delighted that her jihadi son died a “martyr” and is now enjoying those 72 virgins, and little boys. Such sickness. And maybe he earned her a place in paradise since women rarely get in….such foolishness.

    It never ceases to amaze me at what length Moronic Idiots will go to defend the actions of Terrorist & that is what this so called “Nice Boy Was” & raised by an imbecile associated with the Quran. There needs to be a restriction on allowing anybody who believes in or practices beliefs associated with the Quran This Demonic Book should be renamed Religion of Demonology

    • Carolyne says

      Dec 5, 2016 at 12:33 pm

      I think that Muslims who wish to enter the country should be questioned about their belief and wish to institute Sharia Law. Since it is incompatible with our Constitution, they should not be allowed to enter if they say or indicate in any way that they are adherents of Sharia. They are too dumb to not admit it if asked.

      • Susette says

        Dec 5, 2016 at 1:34 pm

        They will just lie…it’s honorable in islam to lie to “infidels.”

        • eduardo odraude says

          Dec 5, 2016 at 2:09 pm

          True, but if they enter on condition of having affirmed that they reject sharia, and then are found to support sharia in the US, perhaps that could be grounds for removal of citizenship and for deportation.

        • carol says

          Dec 10, 2016 at 12:22 pm

          They say Islam IS Sharia, so it would probably be redundant to ask the question.
