Jihad Watch

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

One of the two suspects in Quebec mosque shooting is “of Moroccan origin”

Jan 30, 2017 7:42 am By Robert Spencer

The establishment propaganda media is full of handwringing this morning about “Islamophobia” being the cause of the attack. Everyone is ignoring the fact that the CBC reported, that the gunmen were screaming “Allahu akbar.” And now we learn from La Presse that one of the murderers was Moroccan.

A Moroccan “right-wing Islamophobe”? Those are somewhat thin on the ground in Rabat and Casablanca and Fez. It is much more likely that the shooting was, as I said yesterday, Muslims who were firing upon other Muslims whom they deemed heretical: a Sunni-Shia dispute, or adherents of the Islamic State versus opponents of it.

    Opportunistic thieves that they are, they will still capitalise and add this to their vomituous victim-mantra of “The first victims of islamist-Terrorism-which-has-nothing-to-do-with-Islam-according-to-Obama-et-al” are the Muslims.

    In the Australian media, Sorros Toyboy Justine Trudeau is quoted as still saying: “poor muslims were murdered by terrorists”…..never even hinting that it was fratricide.

      The narrative never changes. Muslims are victims. Christians are racists. The Left has never allowed reality to interfere with its divisive agenda. Thankfully, there are sites like Jihad Watch to counter the Fake News outlets.

        Note the last paragraph

        “The Islamic Cultural Center of Quebec, which is also known as the grand mosque of Quebec, had already been the target of hate: a pig’s head was left on the doorstep last June during the Muslim holy month of Ramazan.

        Zebida Bendjeddou, who left the mosque earlier on Sunday evening, said the centre had received threats.

        “In June, they’d put a pig’s head in front of the mosque. But we thought: ‘Oh, they’re isolated events.’ We didn’t take it seriously. But tonight, those isolated events, they take on a different scope,” she said.”

        She has a point: it a was Moroccan and in good faith, I am sure that what she was indicating, hmm well maybe not.

        Jihadwatch needs to go viral. It deserves much more coverage than it is currently getting.

      Allah told him to kill those Canadian Muslims, who are not sufficiently Muslim for his taste…as Mohamed stated already in Koran, Hadith and Sira taht there are 70 tribes of Mjuslims and only ONE is a TRUE Muslim tribe. Just look at Syria, where ISIS if fighting Alawi Muslms whom they also eat…there was an ISIS terrorist who cut out the heart of an Alawi soldier and ate it.

      The Muslim scholar at the Cairo University where Obama gave his first speech as a US President in 2009, said that eating body parts of slain enemies is OK.

      This speech of Obama, may have triggered “Arab sprin” which ended in Muslims invasion of Europe, Australia and Americas. Obama insisted that his Muslim brotherhood friend sti in the front row and then helped them into power, when Mohamed Morsi wasp”voted” President from June 2012 till July 2013 when Egyptian people and military deposed him and tried him for crimes…he is now in jail for life…that is what US should do with Obama, Clinton, Kerry and their Muslim Brotherhood supporters and flakes.

      As long as Muslims are busy killing each other, they are less likely to have time to kill Kafr (all of non-Muslims). Canada has a moron as a Prime Minister who is endangering safety of Canadians and Americans as those Muslim terrorists can infiltrate into US through the Northern border.

    Does it really matter what the facts are? The mainstream media in Canada and elsewhere has decided this is Islamophobia and that is the story that they will tell.

    • JawsV says

      Jan 30, 2017 at 8:26 am

      Yes, it matters what the facts are. Muslims did it. Trudeau the little worm can’t change that fact.

    • Shmooviyet says

      Jan 30, 2017 at 9:35 am

      Yep– facts matter to most but media has a point to prove, regardless.
      They’ve been wailing about Trump’s order and the ‘tragic implications’ to come; this is their PROOF and facts be-dammed.

    lets see how Justin Trudeau or Junior, as he is referred to in Canada, can ‘plain this one away as islamophobic! and he has invited all islamists into Canada with open arms!!!
    this is islam.,this is islam, this is islam…..

    It’s creeping out bit by bit. What next, that it was an Ahmadiyya mosque?

  5. Ian H says

    Jan 30, 2017 at 8:04 am

    As I said in the other thread I don’t think it can be a coincidence that ‘Jalsa Salana’ was celebrated this weekend. My guess is that this is a jihad attack on Ahmaddiya by those who view them as apostate. If it were a generic anti-Islamic hate crime I doubt the perpetrators would have etehr known or bothered to time their attack to coincide with a specifically Ahmaddiya festival.

    • Muhammad's Ghost says

      Jan 30, 2017 at 4:32 pm

      Could be, but Ahmadiyya are really thin in numbers in North Africa, and as the victims have been said to be from North African Maghreb countries (and two unspecified African countries) I think the odds of targeting Ahmadiyya seems slim. Still possible I suppose.

      • Muhammad's Ghost says

        Jan 30, 2017 at 4:33 pm

        If the victims were Pakistani, Indian, Malaysian or Indonesian it would be more likely an anti-Ahmadiyya attack.

      Too late.

      Some Muslim has already made the comment, that this happened because of what Trump did at the airports.

      The left is just too dang stupid to grasp the concept that, if I attack a random group of people because you and I don’t agree, it’s ME who’s the nut job, not you.

      • somehistory says

        Jan 30, 2017 at 9:45 am

        Psychopaths never, ever, accept responsibility for anything wrong they have done. They always blame someone or something else. They do take credit for what they think is a good thing, however.

  7. kessler says

    Jan 30, 2017 at 8:22 am

    I really had to contain myself this morning when my leftist colleagues started the day by using the Mosque shooting as evidence of Trumps “hate against muslims” – if this story if real; in your f*cking face!!!!

    • Dan says

      Jan 30, 2017 at 8:38 am

      That’s how bad the Muslims have gotten.

      With Trudope pushing for islamophobic hate laws, the very first thing I thought was, this would be the perfect time for some nut job Muslim to kill their own people, to fast track the laws into effect.

      Oh, and I’d also bet Trudope is going to bring up the need for more gun control.

      • Tom Davis says

        Jan 30, 2017 at 8:52 am

        Canada can’t have effective gun control unless they build a wall and make the Americans pay for it.

        • JoAnn Leichliter says

  9. Dov Berrol says

    Jan 30, 2017 at 8:45 am

    We need to find out if the target were Ahmadiya Muslims. Justin Trudeau is close friends with the Aga Khan and this friendship will help Justin cover-up the jihadi aspects of this attack in Quebec. Be interesting to watch the Aga Khan defend his Muslim brothers in public while cursing them in private.

      Just had a look at their website and it appears to be Sunni.

      GoV think it might be disgruntled former congregation members who think the mosque is too moderate:

    CNN already put out a story that it was two”white supremists” and gave names. Hmm, doesn’t seem that they fact check ANYTHING if they can find their sources from a PARODY NEWS SITE!! Authorities are either incompetent or being muzzled by the our selfie idiot brain dead POS in Ottawa. How is it they don’t publish the names of these murderers? Apparently one is of Morrocan origin, but they don’t publish their names. They know they were two students from Laval University, but they don’t publish their names. On of the perpetrators called 911. They searched his house, but they STILL don’t publish their names. So, they are either the “keystone cops” or being told not to publish who they are. This was muzzie against muzzie but this will be used to ram the islamophobic laws through parliament. Never waste a good crisis!

        Nothing new here. Muslims have been blaming the Jews/ Mossard for staging “islamophobic” attacks for decades.!!!!

        All well informed anti jihadists know of this well practiced Muslim scam.

        • Muhammad's Ghost says

          Jan 30, 2017 at 4:41 pm

          Muslims have been “blaming the Jews” since long before Mossad ever existed. That’s why they have Ahadith that are known collectively as the Israiliyyat, and they are considered “untrustworthy narrations” because they have people known to be Jewish as the origin of the narrations.

          Historically many Muslims have seen them as containing information meant to “corrupt” or “subvert” true Islam.

  15. DFD says

    I heard in s Fox radio news report that there were more than a hundred people in the mosque at the time of this atrocious attack. Surely it can’t be possible that there is only “one witness” to the shooters’ hollaring “alahu akbar”.

    I think truth will out about this occurrence.

    But an “Islamophobic” attack fits the desired narrative so much better. How ironic if this attack simply underscores Islam’s intrinsic violence.

  18. EUCLID says

    Jan 30, 2017 at 10:35 am

    Now Morocco used to be part of the Barbary Coast where white slave market flourished. So could this Moroccan be a descendant from a white slave, and thereby proving that the perpetrator was a nasty white racist. Will that please the lib-tards.

    Tellingly, the atrocity was high up the BBC news agenda late last night. By this morning it was so low down it almost disappeared. President Trump could not be blamed for inciting hatred against Muslims, so the story had no currency. Last year, the UK media was shrieking Islamophobia, until it was discovered that two Muslim victims were murdered by . . . . Muslims. It then went rather quiet.
    The most worrying aspect of the media modus operandi is that journalists are clearly being influenced by the instant rush to judgement by the likes of Twitter instead of exercising circumspection until events become clearer and facts revealed. The media is itself perpetrating ‘fake news’ as President Trump has observed.

      Michael Grynbaum whined in Friday’s NYT that Stephen Bannon calls the media “the opposition party” and rarely gives interviews outside to Breitbart. See “Media Bashed Again, as Chief Strategist Piles On” (A1, just below the gold).

    Internal Islamic struggle….jihad

    My first thought when hearing the shooters yelled Allululu Akaiberry was that it was one Muslim group hitting another one like the gangs in LA or the drug lords in Mexico or the old mafia in Chicago.

    This stuff goes on in a much bigger scale in the Middle east where they go after each other with car bombs. Why should we not expect this behavior over here?

    Islam is a very violent religion.

  22. common sense says

    Jan 30, 2017 at 12:34 pm

    A simple case of hegemony if it can be called that. CNN’s jounalism of gymnastics will evemtually tie itself into a knot as usual.
    Muslim fundamentalism is the real focus here that the media wont broach. Its the same as suppressing black on black crimes. Leftist national media simply will never report reality because it may hurt their voter base and ideologival “feelings” which are as hateful and filled with malice as anything I’ve ever witnessed.
    “Look Muslims killed other Muslims over interpretation of Islam and their need to display the dominance of that narrative, just like they do in the middle east. What’s next Wolf? Canadian muslim citizens stoning women in the street?” MSM will never speak these words. They are fools and the liberal agenda will continue lose traction for failing to do the right thing.

  23. Ian from Liverpool says

    Jan 30, 2017 at 1:55 pm

    Robert I’m bumping into people on other message boards claiming that the Moroccan is just a witness and not a suspect.? The police have confirmed two arrests but some people say the Moroccan was let go I haven’t as yet managed to confirm this.

  24. Champ says

    Jan 30, 2017 at 6:26 pm

    The establishment propaganda media is full of handwringing this morning about “Islamophobia” being the cause of the attack.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Once again the “islamophobia” myth is squelched when confronted by the ugly truth of islam & company.
