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

Italy: Muslim tries to run down police, then stabs officer

Mar 23, 2017 8:42 pm By Robert Spencer

This is common jihad practice at this point. The jihad attack yesterday in London followed the same pattern. There was also a vehicular jihad attack in Antwerp yesterday. And in June 2015, a Muslim in Austria drove his car into a crowd, killing three, and then got out and stabbed passersby. Then in November 2016, a Muslim student at Ohio State University named Abdul Razak Ali Artan drove his car into a crowd, then got out and stabbed several others.

“Italy: ‘North African’ Arrested After Driving at Police, Stabbing Officer,” by Liam Deacon, Breitbart, March 23, 2017:

A “North African” migrant has attempted to ram police with a car in a southern Italian town Wednesday, before attacking and injuring an officer with a knife.

Italian press said the attack in the Railway neighbourhood of Foggia “recalls the dynamics” of Wednesday’s attack in Westminster, London, which saw three people killed.

According to Repubblica, the “African citizen” failed to stop at a police checkpoint and ran over the foot of an officer. As he attempted to escape in his vehicle, he crashed into a parked lorry.

He then emerged from the immobilised car and launched a knife attack on officers, stabbing and wounding one in the hand.

The attack in London also began with a man ramming police officers and members of the public with a vehicle, before crashing his car and stabbing an officer.

There was a third similar attack on Thursday in Antwerp, Belgium. A “French-Tunisian” man drove his car into a crowd on a busy shopping street, forcing pedestrians to jump out of the way. He was stopped by police before he could harm more people, and weapons including knives were found in his car.

Commenting on Wednesday’s suspected attack in Italy, Franco Landella, the mayor of Foggia, said the Railway neighbourhood’s high migrant population presented acute security challenges….

    “North African” : another code-name for Mohammedan. Are there 100% Mohammedans living in “North Africa” or is it too “islamofauxbic” to say so?

      If I were a non-muslim african, I think I might be offended.

      WELL, WELL ! The people of Europe are learning about the banned racial epithet (I agree that it’s bad)
      used (still used mostly by Blacks) in the United States to designate worthless, shiftless, low down, people of color.
      I look for it to pop up any day. It could apply to ANY filthy muslim, but especially those invaders of African descent.

      In Germany the controlled media is running a campaign against the police for racism. On account that the police uses the term “Nafri” in its reports. Nafri is simply short for “Nord Afrikaner”. (North African, just in case…). The police, to its credit, stated that they will continue to use this term as they use other abbreviated terms for other matters, individuals, etc.

      But for how long….?

        They have to watch out, because those 72 virgins may be transgender and it will go the other way around.

    I would note that cars, like airplanes, as with trains, radios, televisions, computers, cell phones, satellite technology, modern weaponry, et al. are yet one more “device” that the parasitic Islamic world would have never developed on its own.

    Instructive, telling and damning how pretty much all it seems Muslims can do is use the inventions of the West in their effort to destroy the West. As a test, just think about how much the Islamic world could really harm the Western world if it could only use what it itself has invented. Yes, ponder this one, especially all you parasitic Muslims out there reading this.

      Mar 23, 2017 at 9:41 pm

      So true, Wellington. And how perverse–Muslims use motor vehicles to run people down, and cell phones to trigger IEDS. No matter how benignant an invention, Mohammedans can use them for evil.

        Agreed!! Down to a cooker filled with ‘modern’ little necessities such as nails.

        Then Ikea reacts to an attack in one of their stores by discontinuing sales of certain kitchen knives?!? How insanely pussified that foolishness made the West look. What a good collective belly laugh for the barren islamic world that gives nothing but misery.

        • gravenimage says

          Mar 24, 2017 at 9:10 pm

          Exactly, Shmooviyet–kitchen knives and pressure cookers should be good for making a nice soup, not slaughtering Infidels…

          And yes–you cannot ban all of these items.

    Wow! It’s not even Ramadan yet. So we should put up a poll on JW: (a) Will the muzzies burn themselves out before Ramadan, or (b) is this going to be the deadliest Ramadan ever, or (c) Dirka-Dirka Mohammed Jihad?

    Armies at war, attack on different fronts. moslims are at war with all people who refuse to bow to the beast.

    They are attacking on many “fronts” and attempting to terrify the rest of mankind into bowing to their evil beast. satan demands that they shed a lot of blood and they enjoy following the demonic commands.

    We can expect to see much more until islam is no more.

    and they mock about Trump ! wait til the next attack happens in the US !

    • marina says

      Mar 24, 2017 at 12:02 am

      If the next attack happens in U.S then they would probably say it is Trump’s fault.

    You could give a Muslim a butter knife and he’d turn it into a weapon.

    • gravenimage says

      Mar 24, 2017 at 9:18 pm

      They stopped using metal butter knives in jails because the cons would swipe them and file them down to a sharp point.

      Vigil with candles, teddy bears: united against terror. Not all.
      Depravity: a perversion of true religion
      Terrorist was not true believer: he used to drink
      Parents in shock! Son couldn’t hurt a fly
      Mosque worshippers never knew him
      Lone wolf was marginalized, empoverished. Bullied perhaps.
      We worried about backlash against peaceful followers of mohomet.
      Rinse.
      Repeat operation.

    “…Franco Landella, the mayor of Foggia, said the Railway neighbourhood’s high migrant population presented acute security challenges….”

    A most telling throw-away line. Chronic, with no end in sight.

    “Turhibunna” (terrorize them) – Koran 8.60.

    Terrorism is ISLAMIC … not just ‘Islamist’.

    ISIS knows more about Islam than our naïve, wilfully blind SELL-OUT Western politicians who REFUSE to learn the JIHAD DOCTRINE.

    A LEADING SAUDI CLERIC ENDORSED ISIS’ DOCTRINES – (Sheikh Adel al-Kalbani)

    A former imam of the GRAND MOSQUE in Mecca, Sheikh Adel al-Kalbani, has said that the Islamic State (IS) group follows the SAME brand of Islam as officially espoused by Saudi Arabia.
    “We follow the same thought [as IS] but apply it in a refined way,” he said. “They draw their ideas from what is written in OUR OWN BOOKS, from OUR OWN PRINCIPLES.”
    The cleric said that “WE DO NOT CRITICISE THE THOUGHT on which it (IS) is based”.

    They are like remote-controlled bombs. They avoid detection for long periods, then one day they hear Allah talking to them, and they carry out the deadly attack on the people whose money they have been living on.

    First, The jihadist or jihadists attacks in Western nations be the Muslim terrorists the one who engage in violence in Italy or other countries as the city of London or Brussels , Paris, Nice, Berlin ,Madrid. Those jihad-minded Muslim terrorists who engage in those vicious Islamic terror attacks cannot be and will not be reasoned with. They will not respond to either logic or reason. They aren’t interested, at all, in reason or logic. So they have to be dealt with by a strong force of might. Either by the police or the military. For to even try to reason with a jihad-minded Muslim terrorist is just as much an act of futility as trying to teach algebra to a rabbit.
    Second, in this great and terrible conflict between the Christian West and the Islamic East, one of the many sad realities is the many Westerners seem not to really understand the very base concept of what many truly be called a “War of Idea’s” For a number of times a Christian living in the West is told by other Westerners regarding his of her truth expounding on internet. “This is your chance to give your opinion.” How absurd the statement actually is. For the war of idea’s is based on more the just “opinion.” To give an obvious example. that jihad-minded Muslim who attempted to murders all the people in London ,first by a car and then a knife was ,indeed, a very violent and dangerous man. The make the ignorant claim that it’s just “opinion” that he was “violent and dangerous” man in nonsense. The that jihadist/Muslim, Khalid Masood, had proven by his actions that he was extremely violent and dangerous.
    Likewise, it’s not just “opinion” that those jihadists’ operatives of al Qaeda in their violent behavior on September 11, 2001 were in the wrong. They were very wrong. Those Muslim /jihadist of 9/11 committed a heinous affront against humankind and America that was evil, murderous and demonic.
