Germany: Berlin truck jihadi frequented mosque that was Islamic State recruitment center

Feb 28, 2017 12:11 pm By Robert Spencer

He frequented a mosque? What? And that mosque was an Islamic State recruitment center? Inconceivable! Didn’t Anis Amri know that Islamic jihadis are “not religious people”? George W. Bush said so!

“Berlin truck attack: Police raid properties linked to mosque,” BBC, February 28, 2017:

German police have carried out raids across Berlin on properties linked to a mosque used by the Christmas market truck attacker, Anis Amri.

A 460-strong police deployment searched apartments and two commercial premises. Six prison cells were also searched.

The organisation which ran the mosque has been closed down.

Twelve people were killed and more than 50 injured by Amri, a Tunisian asylum seeker, in December. He was shot dead by police after fleeing to Italy.

Police say the raids follow a decision to ban the organisation, known as Fussilet 33, in mid-February. The properties targeted were used by those who ran the organisation, police said.

German prosecutors say that Amri visited the mosque frequently, including on the day of the attack.

It is alleged to have been a centre for radicalising Muslim recruits for so-called Islamic State in Syria and collecting funds for IS attacks.

Police said they had kept watch on the building with a camera positioned opposite the entrance. The mosque closed down a week ago….

    The TRUCK OF PEACE is coming your way. Who do you think they’ll BUMP INTO today?

      Mortimer, Sye Ten Atheist actually did a video of the “Truck of Peace”. Grim stuff–but also very funny:

    Many times when there is a terrorist attack they will interview the ones that belong to the mosque and they will say that , that person went there but would say they didn’t learn it here, make you wonder what they are actually learning.

      The mullahs know what they are learning… authentic Islam … The REAL teaching of Islamic doctrines takes place at private ISLAMIC STUDY GROUPS where they discuss the CORE DOCTRINE of the obligation of JIHAD.

      Right, Dawn–or else everyone will say that they cannot remember ever seeing him–including the Imam–and that he must have attended sporadically if at all.

    “German prosecutors say that Amri visited the mosque frequently, including on the day of the attack.”

    At least it was important for German prosecutors apparently to state the fact that the murderer attended this mosque which was used as a recruiting ground. Merkel? Main stream news?

    Resistance is showing up.

    THE ‘MOTIVE’ OF ISLAM IS HATRED of ALL KAFIRS (disbelievers).
    Islam contains a very intolerant, discriminatory CORE DOCTRINE that is ‘ESSENTIAL’, WELL-DEFINED, LEGALLY BINDING, PRECISE and OFFICIAL. (Muslims do not advertise this teaching.)
    • ‘Al Walaa wal Baraa’ – (Allegiance and Disavowal) is an Islamic doctrine that is very similar to apartheid, but more severe.
    • ‘Al Walaa wal Baraa’ is an ‘essential doctrine’ (usul ud-deen). ‘Essential’ means that all Muslims must believe and practice al Walaa wal Baraa as a condition of being admitted to paradise.
    • ‘Al Walaa wal Baraa’ is a highly developed, well-supported and canonical part of Islam approved by the consensus of Islamic jurists.
    • ‘Al Walaa wal Baraa’ is legally binding and obligatory upon all Muslims.
    • ‘Al Walaa wal Baraa’ is precisely defined by Islamic jurists and is not a nebulous idea
    • ‘Al Walaa wal Baraa’ is an official Islamic doctrine and considered the second most important doctrine in Islam.
    Definition of ‘Al Walaa wal Baraa’ from Islamic sources:
    • “ to show enmity to those who show enmity to Allaah and His Messenger” (i.e. Muslims are to visibly demonstrate their enmity or towards non-Muslims), Khalid El-Gharib, “The Islaamic Concept of al-Walaa’ wal-Baraa’”, https://www.kalamullah.com/manhaj14.html
    • “The implication of al-Baraa is that one HATES for the sake of Allah (SWT)…Al-Baraa means to recognize who your enemies are and to HATE them and EXTERMINATE them in their Endeavour to get rid of your Deen, al-Islam…Al-Baraa is to HATE the people who propagate Baatil (falsehood)—the Muslim should HATE them and (at least desire to) KILL them when the time comes.” (i.e. al Baraa prepares Muslims to exterminate non-Muslims), Sheikh Abdullah al-Faisal, lecture, https://youtu.be/jUgDJmpmj14?t=855
    • “The honour of Islam lies in insulting kufr and kafirs. One who respects the kafirs dishonours the Muslims… The real purpose of levying jiziya on them is to humiliate them to such an extent that they may not be able to dress well and to live in grandeur. They should constantly remain terrified and trembling. It is intended to hold them under contempt and to uphold the honour and might of Islam.”, Ahmad Sirhindi (1564-1624), (letter No. 163)
    • “… true believers show animosity and hatred towards disbelievers and never support them.”- from ibn Taymiyya, The Book of Faith (“Kitab al Iman”) – ISBN: 9781615842872
    • “The Muslim should regard the Kuffaar as enemies and hate them because of their kufr, just as he hates their kufr (disbelief) itself.” – Umar Sulayman ‘Abd-Allaah al-Ashqar, “Belief in Allah”, http://www.kalamullah.com/belief-in-allah.html, (engl.2002)
    • “The doctrine of al Wala wal Baraa is the real image for the actual practice of this faith.” Sheikh Muhammad Saeed al Qatani, (Saudi Sharia lawyer and imam at the Abu Bakr and Al Furqan Mosques in Mecca), “Al Walaa wal Baraa According to the Aqeedah of the Salaf”), https://islamfuture.wordpress.com/2009/08/20/al-wala-wal-bara-according-to-the-aqeedah-of-the-salaf-parts-123/, (1992AD-1413DH)

    Naturally that jihad-minded Muslim who engaged in that vicious and murderous Islamic terror jihadist attack in Berlin Germany frequented as mosque that was also connected another kind of Islamic center.
    What else ? That brutal and deadly terrorist wouldn’t had frequented a Buddhist temple that was connected to an Buddhist activity center .
    Furthermore there is no indication that Merkel since the December jihad truck attack has really changed by politics and polices concerning the subject of Muslim migrants being allowed . Thus Merkel cannot or will not learn her past errors in judgement and folly. Therefore Merkel must not actually be competent head of state. by an extremely incompetent one . For the job of a good head of State is to ensure the safety and protection of that nations citizens. Not to set up “politically correct” policies Merkel is the n not only a fool but she is also totally unfit to hold that position she now has in government . This means that Merkel is as guilty as sin regarding taking part of the blame for that Islamic terror truck attack in Berlin last month. For her PC politics and polices led to that murderous jihad murder disaster. Furthermore, is should be made clear that the “holy book” of Islam, the Quran, [the Koran] gives instruction in the ways of the violent and deadly jihad. To give only one out of many examples of this from the Koran is Sura 47:4. Which teaches “Whenever you encounter the unbelievers strike off their heads until you make a great slaughter among them…” Let’s face it, using a large truck as a weapon, as the Muslim /jihadist did, can sure make a greater “slaughter among them” than a sword can.

      Personally, I think she is not a stupid woman. She cannot be blind to the demographic consequences her actions will have for the future of Germany. So this must be deliberate, wilful ignorance. I honestly believe she is taking great wads of Saudi money in kickbacks to allow this madness.

      Nothing else makes sense.

    All Mosques should be monitored, any death threats or advocating terror attacks – bring in the bulldozers.

    Mosques, where attendees are infected with the Islamo-rabies virus. Once the infection process has been completed, Muslims can be turned into mad dogs, at any moment, by the Imam’s howling from the local minaret.

    But Bush said these people in the mosques who are for ISIS are not religious people. So we don’t have to worry about anything. Just worry about what Trump said or didn’t say, how bad his manner is and fight against anything he does to protect us Americans against evil Islam.

    Interesting times we are living in. The whole world really went lunatic. Liberal world became so incapable of common sense that liberals think now evil is good, good is evil.

      It was Bush that called Islam the ‘Religion of Peace’ after 9/11. And then he provided safe passage for his Saudi friends out of America.

      George W Bush is a traitor. He put his family’s financial interest ahead of America’s.

    Germany: Berlin truck jihadi frequented mosque that was Islamic State recruitment center
    ……………………………..

    Will this Mosque finally be shut down? And if not, why not?

    And in what way was Anis Amri an “asylum seeker”? Unless you are a Christian or a rape victim faced with being forced to marry your rapist, Tunisia is actually one of the safest and most comparatively stable of Muslim countries.

    Unless, of course, he was at risk of being jailed as a Jihadist–things are so mad in these days that this is not actually impossible…

    Strange why they are taking so long to release the identity of the Heidelberg car attacker.

    They know his age. If he is a German national – was he a convert??

    Who rams a car into a crowd and gets out of the vehicle with a knife?

    A drunken person would act completely different.

    He rented the car according to reports.

    ::

    If you look you’ll see reports – from the media and Merkel’s henchmen, priding themselves on taking down ‘Islamophobic’ trolls – whenever anyone questions the nationality of the attacker.

    Islamophobia is blamed for jihadist attacks – and the belief is that if westerners could just stop this – we could stop ~ what… Islamic jihadist attacks in Pakistan?

    Effectively the German authority is using a violent attack – where someone was killed and others injured – as a means of control.
