Here is a summation of where the case of my poisoning by a Left-fascist in Reykjavik stands now.
“Icelandic Cops Investigate Poison Attack on JihadWatch’s Robert Spencer,” by Neil Munro, Breitbart, May 17, 2017:
Police in Iceland are investigating a poison attack on Robert Spencer, an American expert on Islam who was also the 2015 target of a jihad assault in Garland, Texas.
“Reykjavík Metropolitan police are investigating a case where there are a suspicious that a person was poisoned,” according to an email from Grímur Grímsson, the detective chief superintendent who is working the Robert Spencer poison case. “Actions taken regarding the case cannot been [sic] revealed at this moment … At this moment, it is not clear” when there will be an arrest, he told Breitbart News.
Grímsson insisted that poison attacks are rare on the ethnically homogenous Iceland, which benefits greatly from the annual inflow of American tourists. “Cases where there are suspicious [sic] that someone has been poisoned are very few in Iceland and it goes also for spiking tourists´ drinks with drugs,” he told Breitbart.
The doctor’s May 12 report shows that Spencer was poisoned with amphetamines and MDMA.
Spencer rested for several days and returned to his home in the United States.
He keeps his home address secret because of threats by Islamic groups to kill him for his on-target descriptions and best-selling books about how the Koran’s violent, intolerant and supremacist verses spur violence, intolerance, and supremacist claims by the Koran’s adherents. For example, Spencer correctly predicted that his 2015 artistic exhibition of cartoons about Islam’s founder would likely prompt Islamic adherents to attack the exhibition simply because orthodox Islam says critics of Islam should be killed. Spencer’s 2015 analysis was proved right, and two armed jihadis attackers were quickly neutralized by hired security guards at the Garland, Texas, event, which was also organized by Pamela Geller.
In a post on his website, Spencer wrote about the poison attack by the Icelandic man, who he described as a left-winger, not a Muslim:
I learned my lesson. The lesson I learned was that media demonization of those who dissent from the Leftist line is direct incitement to violence. By portraying me and others who raise legitimate questions about jihad terror and Sharia oppression as racist, bigoted Islamophobes, without allowing us a fair hearing, the media in Iceland and elsewhere in the West is actively endangering those who dare to dissent…
Spencer said that he was hit when the attacker slipped drugs into his drink at a post-event celebration:
At this crowded Reykjavik establishment, I was quickly recognized. A young Icelander called me by name, shook my hand, and said he was a big fan. Shortly after that, another citizen of that famously genteel and courteous land also called me by name, shook my hand, and said “F**k you.”
We took that marvelous Icelandic greeting as a cue to leave. But the damage had already been done. About fifteen minutes later, when I got back in my hotel room, I began to feel numbness in my face, hands, and feet. I began trembling and vomiting. My heart was racing dangerously. I spent the night in a Reykjavik hospital.
“We had chosen a restaurant that was far enough away from the venue to be free of any protesters,” Spencer told Breitbart. “But Iceland is too small and I am too recognizable for that. We were right out in the open at a public place, so it was easy for the guy to come greet me and slip something in my drink unnoticed.”
The doctor in the Rejkyavik hospital also badgered him, said Spencer.
He was quite unfriendly — bad bedside manner. He tried to downplay what happened, but it is still clear from the medical report: I tested positive for amphetamines and MDMA (Ecstasy). The doctor told me only that I had Ritalin in my bloodstream, and seemed skeptical when I told him that I never took Ritalin. He never mentioned the MDMA to me; I only saw it when I looked much later at his written report. He told me he thought the tests were mistaken and that I had simply had a panic attack. That’s actually a symptom of MDMA overdose.
I’ve never had a panic attack in my life, even after jihadis attacked our event in Garland. Also, why would I have a panic attack after a successful event? … He also went on about stress, urging me to stop doing what I do, without any evidence that I have ever found it particularly stressful. His intent seemed to be to get me to believe that I had not been drugged, and should stop speaking out against jihad terror and Sharia oppression. Meanwhile, his report had to admit that I had been drugged, but said it was not a “serious poisoning.”
How much poison must one be given for the poisoning to be “serious”? I had most of the symptoms of MDMA overdose. That’s serious enough for me.
Iceland’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs did not return an email from Breitbart News.

It would not be surprising if the assassin were a secret Muslim. Poisoning is Sunna …Mohammed’s sacred example and that of his followers!
Six of Islam’s most important figures were murdered by poison! Political assassination by poisoning is normative Islam, rather than an aberration. Mohammed was poisoned by his closest ‘friends’ Abu Bakr and Omar and their daughters Aisha and Hafsa, but it was blamed on the Jews…blame shifting is another Islamic tradition. Abu Bakr was poisoned next, along with his chief adviser… by Omar. Then Caliph Omar was killed with a poisoned spear. Next, Uthman was killed with a poisoned sword. Mohammed’s grandson, caliph-candidate Hasan ibn `Ali was poisoned by Caliph Muawiyah. Mohammed’s great-grandson, caliph-candidate Alī ibn Ḥusayn bin Ali was poisoned by Caliph Hisham ibn Abd al-Malik.Six of Islam’s most important figures were murdered by poison! Political assassination by poisoning is normative Islam, rather than an aberration.
mortimer says
Leftists are sadomasochists who feel kinship with the sadomasochism which is the fundamental emotional subtext of Islam.
Islam means ‘submission’ as in Dominance/Submission, Master/Slave, Sadism/Masochism, Perpetrator/Victim.
The Icelandic doctor clearly took the side of the PERPETRATOR. He should be disciplined by the Icelandic medical society and perhaps have his license removed.
Kurtan says
Remember that a left anarchist killed Pim Fortuyn, the would be top politician in Holland, a few years ago because the perp “wanted to defend the muslims”…
Same scenario, different individuals, same media?
Norger says
Mr. Spencer will probably be banned from Iceland for inciting violence, albeit against himself. It will be interesting to see if anyone is actually charged in this case. Secretly drugging someone is quite serious and disturbing, “minor” poisoning my a**.
Guest says
I’m never going to Iceland now.
Keys says
If Robert did not finish his drink, he likely did not get the full effect of the poison.
Drug overdoses can kill, of course, and maybe that was the hasty plan.

Yes–that is a concern. This likely could have been *much worse* than it was.
Jihadi John says
THANK YOU ROBERT SPENCER FOR THIS WEBSITE TO DISSEMINATE IMPORTANT INFORMATION. LITTLE DID I REALIZE THAT YOU WERE PUTTING YOUR VERY LIFE IN DANGER!

Jihadi John, Robert Spencer gets serious death threats all the time, and there was a serious plot to kill him and Pamela Geller at the cartoon art show in Garland, Texas. The Jihadists were killed by police before they could strike:

Robert is described in the article as an attendee, but he was one of the organizers.
Katinka says
I had planned to go to Iceland but based on this murder attempt I think I will pass.
Vic says
So sorry to hear of your ordeal, Mr. Spencer. This event against you should be treated as premeditated murder. This was carefully planned and executed. We are thankful that God protected you from it. I wonder if the Icelandic police will follow through, conduct a serious investigation and actually arrest the perp and bring him to justice.
So glad that you are back home and on the way to recovery.
God continue to bless and protect you!

We should raise hell over this. Start a letter writing campaign to our local Icelandic embassy and inform them that until such time that foreigners can safely be tourists in Iceland without danger of poisoning, like the recent example of Mr. Robert Spencer, we will not make plans to visit, nor will we encourage anyone we know to make a visit. Enough people do that and they WILL find the poisoner.

Are they going to take this seriously?

I doubt Iceland, so infiltrated by leftist extremism, is going to care much that someone may have tried to kill Spencer. They’re probably like so many other dhimmi nations that stop their ears and yell, “lalalalalalalala” so they can’t hear the truth about islam. You can’t count on the authorities anywhere to care about doing the right thing regarding islam. They shill for that sick ideology all the time, too afraid to enforce the law for fear of looking “islamaphobic.” England’s children are a good example of this, raped freely by muslims because law enforcers value islam more. It’s a disgrace. It’s the same where I live in Mpls too. The powers that be have opened their arms in welcome to the world’s sickest, most dangerous ideology. Hell, just last week in Mpls Abdullah was caught with guns, hand grenade, and large amounts of ammunition in his car. Somehow I don’t think he was going shopping. We know it’s only a matter of time before more die for their demon-god in our town. I got a mosque near where I live. They leave their cars in the park across the street where I’ve been walking for years. They eye me like I’m an islamophobe looking for trouble. I’d never take my dog there, I know I’m the one that would go to jail for “provoking” the poor muslims. They’re taking over and I don’t think that’s good for our state or our nation. Their demon superstitions are only going to create more of the terror we see every day in the news. And I’ll never shut up about it.
Richard Courtemanche says
The doctor’s attitude! This may show how deep Islam has impregnated Icelanders already. The friendly crowd that attended Robert’s speech might be treated like dihmmis at the hands of their own.
Cunamarra says
Cyanide can be taken in small doses and your liver will just process it out. You can even take enough to see the effect on your veins as they become quite visible in your forearms and feel the effect in your head as less oxygen is fed to your brain and in small enough doses this would still not be a “serious” poisoning. Make no mistake, however, if someone gives you cyanide in a clandestine manner a crime has been perpetrated and one second only to the person’s attempting to convince you it is not a serious matter.
Ecstasy is quite common and easily available. I find it highly unlikely that Mr. Spencer consumed the full amount intended for him yet it was still enough to hospitalize him. This should not be dismissed as some prank. The perpetrator attempted murder and this doctor is due legal vengeance.
Lenore Cooper says
I am so sorry Mr. Spencer that you should have to go through that. I know that you will be attacked again because the end draws near. I pray that you have the strength not to give up, to keep on going and know that there are people out there that appreciate all you do. Thank you Mr. Spencer for standing on the front lines, for telling the truth and for not being intimidated into silence. I pray for you and thank God for you.
Red says
How did the perp KNOW where Spencer would be? He was prepared with the poison. So how did he sus out where and when Spencer would be a that restaurant?
Robert Spencer says
The drugs I was poisoned with are common among some young people today and are often used to victimize young women. This little creep probably had some of these drugs on hand for date night and then saw me and got a different idea for what to do with them.
