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

Robert Spencer in FrontPage: Ramadan Jihad Comes to Wisconsin and Michigan

Jun 22, 2017 10:53 am By Robert Spencer

One police officer in critical condition, two communities terrorized. My latest in FrontPage:

Ramadan is in full swing – it doesn’t end until Saturday evening – and Britain has been a particular recipient of Islamic piety during the holy month, with major jihad attacks in Manchester and London. But now the United States has been included in the multicultural festivities, as jihadis have struck, albeit with limited results, in Wisconsin and Michigan.

A Taliban spokesmen recently said: “Our fight is Jihad and an obligatory worship. And every obligatory act of worship has 70 times more reward in Ramadan.” Not just the Taliban believe that. Another likely believer in those special Ramadan rewards is a Muslim in Milwaukee named Mohamad Hamdan.

Last Thursday, according to Fox6Now.com, Hamdan walked into the U.S. Courthouse in downtown Milwaukee and “began yelling loudly in an Arabic language,” screaming, among other things, “Muhammad,” “Allah,” and “jihad.” According to the criminal complaint against him, he suddenly put his hand into his pocket, which “caused security to fear for their immediate safety.” Hamdan had apparently imbibed well the Qur’an’s command to “strike terror in the enemy of Allah and your enemy and others besides them whom you do not know whom Allah knows.” (Qur’an 8:60)

And he wasn’t finished striking terror in the enemy of Allah. Escorted out of the building by a U.S. Marshal, Hamdan resumed screaming in Arabic, and said in English: “I’m gonna kill you all. Allah. Bomb.”

This led to a massive traffic tie-up in downtown Milwaukee, as the Courthouse and several nearby buildings were evacuated and a bomb-sniffing dog called in. Nothing was found, and Hamdan was charged with making terrorist threats.

Then on the next Wednesday at Bishop International Airport in Flint, Michigan, a Muslim grabbed for his Ramadan reward by striking terror in the enemies of Allah there, screaming “Allahu akbar” and stabbing a police officer, Lt. Jeff Neville, in the neck. The attacker evidently chose his spot carefully, as the Qur’an directs Muslims: “When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks” (47:4).

Like the U.S. Courthouse, Bishop International Airport was evacuated and the FBI called in. Tim Wiley of the FBI’s Detroit field office downplayed the attacker’s cry of “Allahu akbar,” saying: “We are aware of reports that the attacker made statements immediately prior to or while attacking the officer, but it is too early to determine the nature of these alleged statements or whether or not this was an act of terrorism. Based on the information that we have at this time, we believe this to be an isolated incident.”

That’s the last thing it was. There was nothing in the least isolated about the incidents in Michigan or Wisconsin, even if in both cases the Muslims involved were acting alone and were not in touch with the Islamic State or al-Qaeda. These “isolated incidents” all stem from the same motivating ideology and belief system. They increase in frequency during Ramadan because Ramadan is a time when Muslims are supposed to redouble their efforts to please Allah, and the Qur’an makes abundantly and repeatedly clear that jihad attacks against infidels are pleasing to Allah.

Yet as Ramadan jihad comes to Wisconsin and Michigan, the denial and willful ignorance of American authorities remains as thick as ever. Non-Muslims continue to congratulate Muslims on the occasion of Ramadan and behave as if it were wholly and solely a benign religious observance that good multiculturalists and all decent, broad-minded people should applaud.

As the death count spirals ever higher, the fatuity of this mainstream view becomes ever more apparent. But really, it has been apparent for years, although few are willing to say so publicly because of the inevitable barrage of charges that will ensue, of “racism,” “bigotry” and “Islamophobia.” As Ramadan jihad attacks become more frequent and more common inside the United States, expect the “Islamophobia” propaganda to grow ever more strident, shrill, and insistent. When you’re trying to put the Big Lie across, the only way you can overcome the hard evidence of reality is by means of constant repetition.

So in the aftermath of these jihad events in Wisconsin and Michigan, watch for new mainstream media presentations about how Muslims are victimized by Trump-supporting racist louts in…Wisconsin and Michigan.

      Nothing will be done until Whites wake up from their slumber. Most have no idea what is going on because they work all day and come home and turn on CNN or listen to NPR; and most simply do not wish to be involved because culturally they are non-confrontational.

    Ahhh, CAIR’s nightmare – at any moment someone, having one of the “99” names of Muhammad, will provide active proof that Islam is the religion of violent jihad.

    It’s enough to drive Ibrahim Hooper down the hall into the ……

    In the Seattle Times this morning, front page article on ‘the real face of Islam.’ Of course, a puff piece about how it REALLY is peaceful, etc. A ‘heartwarming’ story about Muslims here, and how they opened their mosque to the public — isn’t that wonderful?

    Now, the Times ALWAYS has a comment section after every article. Always. Where ‘other facts and opinions’ can be expressed by readers.

    Guess what? Not on this article. i.e. … TRUTH AND FACTS about Islam, not allowed to be posted.

    At first, I was shocked — where’s the comment section? Looked at several other articles — all with comment sections. But not this one?

    Sent an email to the writer — where is the comment section? Are we not allowed to share facts about Islam?

    I don’t expect a response.

    MSM across the country is part and parcel of pushing Islam ….. and facts are not allowed.

      So right, Michael. What is astounding is that the media and Muslims themselves keep pushing this patently absurd ‘religion of peace’ narrative even in the face of the very inconvenient reality: every day, on every continent, Muslims are wreaking havoc on innocent people. No liberal will answer the obvious question – what is it about Islam, unlike any other world religion, that inspires so many of its followers to become murderous psychopaths?

      • balam says

        Islam represents the TRUE face of Mohammad who was a PSCHOPATH and so are his true followers .Quran is his manual of HOLY TERROR called JIHAD which should be eliminated from the dictionary of Islam if we wish to have PEACE in the world.

    The FBI has already pronounced that the attack was not part of a wider plot. So unless, there is a wider plot, the FBI just stands down and lets the next attack happen. That is where this one is all going to end. Nothing has changed. Although, at least this time, unlike Garland, the FBI did not seem to have a hand in plotting and executing the attack. Is that progress?

    Police know this is an isolated incident because it is like all the other isolated incidents.

    The guy (Hamdan) is from Montreal, Canada. Only a day before this thing, Montreal Mayor was ranting against Trump (usual BS about Climate Change):

    http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/denis-coderre-trump-paris-climate-1.4168841

    Mr Mayor, how about instead of unicorns & rainbows better take care of rampant Sharia ‘incidents’?

    The jihadist or jihadists attacks in Western nations be the Muslim terrorist attack be at the airport in Flint ,Michigan or in larger cities of other countries the West such as in the city of London, Manchester ,Stockholm, 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.

    There are plenty of Muslims ( I have met a few ) who actually believe that all these jihad attacks are due to foreign policy in the Mideast and Israeli occupation of Palestine. They are in denial or ignorant of the fact that Islam has been like this for the past 1400 years.

    Once upon a time, there were no cars. People drank alcohol, but couldn’t do it while driving a car. Maybe a buggy or wagon, but no cars. Then, cars were invented and the drinkers could drink and drive. And cause accidents, many fatal. Each was an *isolated* incident.

    Then one day it dawned: drinking and driving equals a bad combination and whether or not isolated, there was a *common* cause for the accidents that kept happening and people were dying.

    Those *in charge* don’t want to make the connection between the *isolated incidents* of moslums murdering, and attempting to murder, and the common cause…their motivation. Those reporting on the *isolated incidents* don’t either.

    Only people who love and respect Truth are willing to say: islum is evil and is the core of the problem in all of these *isolated* incidents, that are all connected.

    Over 31,000 “isolated incidents” now and the FBI has no clue?

    The entire Western world is under attack from the “Religion of Peace”.

    My home town! Flint Bishop Airport is just a little airport too. I have been warning all my old homies to watch for this. Sad it really happened. Maybe they will begin to pay attention and start understanding Islam better. I hope so!

    He may be a lone lunatic with little real islamic involvement. The problem is, that islam attracts those lunatics, and gives legitimacy to their lunacy. Ther’s where Sudden Jihad Syndrome comes from. This is a significant part of how jihad is waged. It is much less by organized armies and terror cells, than by random gobshites.

    As the for that vicious jihad- minded Muslim who attacked with a knife to the throat that law enforcement officer at Flint Michigan, airport. That jihadist /Muslim was following the instruction from the “holy book” of Islam, the Quran . Which instructs in Surah 47:4. “So when you need [in fight jihad in Allah’s cause] those who disbelieve, smite [their] necks till when you have killed or wounded many of them…” That about what the Muslim did, for he wounded that officer who was a disbeliever by neck stabbing, smiting, Likewise Surah 9:123 of the Quran teaches “O you who believe ! Fight those of the disbeliever who are close to you, and let them find harshness in you…” Let’s face it, stabbing a man , who is a is believer , with a knife is a very effective way of showing harshness.”
    Nevertheless there are some people who are in a blatant state of mental denial and still say, in spites of all of the facts that Islam is a “peaceful religion.” Those make the statement of a falsehood of a claim about Islam need to wake up and have a reality check.

    Now that Ramadan is over – is Ramadan among the “holy days” mentioned in Qur’an 9:5? – the violence of the past month morphs into the violence of non-holy days: “And when the sacred months have passed, slay the idolators wherever you find them. Arrest them, besiege them, and lie in ambush everywhere for them. But if they should repent, establish prayer, and give zakah, let them [go] on their way. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.”

    Why isn’t Allah forgiving and merciful toward “the idolators?” Oh; Allah’s mercy only applies to Muslims.
