The Telegraph says: “No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack and the suspect’s motives remain unclear.”
The Telegraph, like other establishment media outlets, is a wretched propaganda sheet determined to mislead the public into thinking that Islamic jihad terror is not as much of a problem as it actually is.
“Who is St Petersburg bombing suspect Akbarzhon Jalilov?,” by James Rothwell, Telegraph, April 4, 2017:
Russia’s investigative committee has named the St Petersburg metro bomb attacker as Akbarzhon Jalilov, a 22-year-old man from the Central Asian country of Kyrgyzstan.
The confirmation came after Kyrgyzstan’s security services, who said they are “maintaining contact with the Russian secret service for further investigation,” named Jalilov as a suspect this morning.
Earlier Russian investigators refused to confirm the report, saying that although they have established the identity of the attacker, whose remains they found at the scene of the blast, it would be “premature” to name the suspect publicly.
Who is he?
Akbarzhon Jalilov was born on April 1, 1995. Kyrgyzstan’s security services say he is from the city of Osh.
Unconfirmed reports in local media say he moved to St Petersburg with his parents in 2011, and remained in the city after they later returned to Osh.
Very little is known about Jalilov’s background before he carried out the attack.
Unconfirmed reports in Russian media said he worked for some years as a sushi chef in a St Petersburg restaurant and was a martial arts fan, citing a profile on Vkontakte, a Russian social network.
CCTV images of the suspect, provided by police to Russian television channels and redistributed by Reuters, show a young man in a red parka and carrying a rucksack walking through a metro station.
Where is he from?
Kyrgyzstan, a mountainous former Soviet republic sandwiched between Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and China, is a Muslim-majority country closely allied with Russia.
Jalilov is an Uzbek, not Kyrgyz name. Osh, the city the family comes from, was the scene of bloody clashes between Kyrgyz and Uzbek communities in 2010. Some have speculated the family moved to escape the violence, and might provide a clue to his path to radicalization.
Why did he do it?
No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack and the suspect’s motives remain unclear.
Russia’s Interfax news agency cited law enforcement sources saying Jalilov was linked to known Islamist extremists – but it offered no details….
mortimer says
Akbarzhon Jalilov is part of a 200-million-strong army of amateur jihadists… but look at the damage an amateur can do!
According to international surveys of public opinion, there are well over 200 MILLION Muslims worldwide who self-identify as supporting various terrorist groups. This a huge ARMY of potential jihadists. Of these 200 million, one person in a thousand is ready, willing and able to conduct jihad if ASKED TO DO SO. Networks of jihadists quietly recruit such young people at ISLAMIC STUDY GROUPS where the primary Islamic source texts are studied. Western elites are TOTALLY UNAWARE of the Islamic primary texts and so do not understand the GREAT DANGER TO SECURITY in these fundamental texts glorifying the rapes, plunderings and savage killings of Mohammed and his gangster army in the 7th century.
Western elites are willfully ignorant of the cause of jihadism: the primary Islamic source texts. There should be NO Islamic study groups anywhere, since they are the beginning of jihadist indoctrination.

No way! Islam is the Religion of Peace™.

Moslem is the cult of killing
marina says
“suspect’s motives remain unclear”
What motive? He is only following his Koran and emulating his beloved prophet by killing the infidels. Looks like the west doesn’t understand this.
JawsV says
For some inexplicable reason they don’t want to understand.
Sam says
Come on JW readers lets go and protect “moderate” muslims in America so the vicious Islamophobes do not attack them because of this isolated incident in Russia. Poor muslims are living in fear nowadays in America you know.
Tony says
How do you know that their are “moderate Molsems”?

For Robert Spencer:
================
Thank you for recognizing the Telegraph correctly. What you said about the Telegraph is practically true for ***ALL*** W. European media. Notable exceptions are, to some extent, the ‘Financial Times’ and the ‘Wirtschafts Woche’. They, the MSM, actually admit to that. Recently a Spiegel reporter said to another reporter (I think the other was from jouwatch/Journalist Watch, a German organization) that reporting is secondary, but teaching and guiding the readers is their primary function. And definitely so in the MSM’s “fight against the right”. The argument was, from the other reporter, that a good journalist does not take sides ever, even if it is the right side, a journalist/reporter has to be neutral at all times. Well, Der Spiegel is about as MSM as it gets, like Die Welt, Die Zeit, etc. The only, thorough exception, as far as printed media is concerned, is “Compact Magazin”, also available on-line.
Generally……
FINANCIAL Terror Against Critics
(from Germany/EU)
=========================
G Soros now supports “The Corrective” with €100,000.00 – to search out “hate speech” on the net. German “justice minister” Heiko Maas (Socialist/Maoist) whose assistant is Anetta Kahane (Long term Stasi operater and informer, Stasi code-name = Victoria) will now introduce a law that can and will fine inet-operators up to €50million (you read that correctly) for spreading fake news, and or failing to remove these within 24 hours. Again, you read that correctly.
Members of the MSM to function as a supervisory watch dog. Although, even some of them are getting cold feet this.
Stasi-Kahane will be primarily in charge, for which Maas (SPD) will of course have to increase payment to her “foundation”, the “Wolfgang-Amadeo-Stiftung”, which already runs a massive cash surplus. Thanks to government money. That the CDU is the ruling party…? So what. As Kahane was Stasi, so Merkel lead the department for ‘Agitation und Propaganda’.

And now the MSM are going after Youtubers.
Tony says
Do you think the Germans are copying the same methods of the SS, the Gestapo, the KGB, the OGPU, or the Cheka in preventing free speech. Who says speech has to be real? or truth? or valid? or common sensical? or any of the above or some of the above?
Stan Lee says
His terror act was not because he was originally from Kyrgyzstan, nor does his first name being Uzbek rather than Kyrgyz have to do with his terrorist motivations. Besides, it is the act of terrorism, not where he came from, nor who claims credit for the bombing. If no Muslim operation ever claims responsibility, there is still a terrorist at large and scheming for his next opportunity, because he subscribes to koranic dogma that non-believers must die and he is a Muslim chosen by his prophet to do as much damage/killing as possible.
If Russian authorities track him and arrest him, he won’t receive the usual treatment of U.S. or British authorities which will take the time to search his conscience if he has one, Being caught and cornered by today’s equivalent of the KGB in Russia today, the Russian Federal Security Bureau, they won’t invest much time in long discussions aimed at seeking names of other Muslims involved in the same terrorism, They will send him to his maker. They already know there are many more “out there” like him and ready at a moment’s notice.
Russia does realize that these Muslims live for the day when they can kill non-Muslims, and if not caught and dealt with, they will repeat their terror acts as long as they can. Russia understands Muslim psyche and Federal Security knows it is a matter of “kill or be killed.”
We should understand the same Muslim progression by now, but western nations spend much time deliberating if a Muslim terrorist caught alive will possibly be a good person if treated as one who merely made a mistake because he has been motivated by an imam of a mosque, or mosque members planning jihad too.
The fact is that their Koran has shaped them to be like “guided missiles” which will arm-up at times of opportunity. They all are products of their Koran, some will be active jihadis, others will support acts of Jihad through material assistance and reconaissance. We, who are their intended targets will see or learn of their actions over and over again.
We should all recall the words of a famous American baseball team manager; “Nice guys don’t win pennants,” and would-be Jihadis act the “nice guy” image only too well.
Tony says
The original quote is from Leo Durocher’s comment about the last place team the 1946 New York Giants “The nice guys are all over there, in seventh place” but he never says anything about winning pennants. You have the wrong quote.
The assumption being that if you are nice you will always lose and being nice will somehow moderate the killing incentive of the Moslem race. Never trust Moslems I know a few things about Moslems since I used to live in a Moslem country.
Mazo says
Yes, it does have to do with with this. Uzbeks are way more religious and fanatical than Kyrgyz people, way more prone to joining radical fundamentalist groups. Kyrgyz were historically nomads while Uzbeks were historically sedentary city dwellers and farmers. There are much more Uzbek terrorists than Kyrgyz terrorists, much more religious Uzbeks than religious Kyrgyz. There are much more Uzbeks fighting in Syria than Kyrgyz, much more Uzbek fundamentalist groups than Kyrgyz.
Kepha says
Are we sure he’s not Meshkhetian, Chechen, Dungan, or other minor people of Central Asia?
Mazo says
Osh is a breeding ground for Uzbeks, and religious Uzbeks in particular.
A Meshketian would not have fled to an Uzbek area of Kyrgyzstan for safety. They would only settle there if they had a death wish. Uzbeks in Uzbekistan lynched them and drove them out.
Most “Kyrgyz nationals” in Syria are ethnic Uzbeks from Osh and not ethnic Kyrgyz. The Kyrgyzstan government itself has noted this and said Uzbeks make up the majority of terrorists stemming from their country.
Romans says
So Islam is basically just a terrorist organization disguised as a religious pagan cult; It fits the mold of satan’s world kingdom
Keys says
Yes! Romans, that’s it in a nutcase !

In the west we have hospital floors where suicidal people recover. In the desert do they have similar patient facilities, or do they just wire them up for the one-way one and only path to paradise?
