“Nothing you did today even matters. Jihad will continue until the day of judgment. And that’s a promise from Allah. It’s not going to change. It’s not going to stop. Neither of them are. My commission of Allah is not going to stop. So this is meaningless. I’ll be rewarded for what I do. You’ll be punished for what you do. I’m fine with that. You’re fine with that.”
One might almost think McNeil’s thirst for violence had something to do with Islam, if we didn’t have learned imams such as H. R. McMaster to tell us otherwise.
“So we’ll wait for the punishment of Allah to afflict you, either by himself or through the hands of the Muslims, and then we’ll see. Inshallah.”
“Fight them; Allah will punish them by your hands and will disgrace them and give you victory over them and satisfy the breasts of a believing people and remove the fury in the believers’ hearts.” (Qur’an 9:14-15)
“Akron terrorism suspect sentenced to 20 years in prison, tells judge ‘you’ll be punished for what you do,'” by Eric Heisig, Cleveland.com, August 2, 2017 (thanks to Creeping Sharia):
CLEVELAND, Ohio — An Akron terrorism suspect sentenced to 20 years in federal prison on Wednesday threatened the judge who handed down the sentence.
Terrence McNeil, 24, made the remarks to U.S. District Judge Dan Polster toward the end of a sentencing hearing on charges that he threatened members of the military and their families in the name of the Islamic State, a terrorist group also known as ISIS or ISIL.
McNeil also said he would be rewarded in the afterlife.
“Nothing you did today even matters. Jihad will continue until the day of judgment,” McNeil said. “And that’s a promise from Allah. It’s not going to change. It’s not going to stop. Neither of them are. My commission of Allah is not going to stop. So this is meaningless. I’ll be rewarded for what I do. You’ll be punished for what you do. I’m fine with that. You’re fine with that. So we’ll wait for the punishment of Allah to afflict you, either by himself or through the hands of the Muslims, and then we’ll see. Inshallah.”
Polster responded, “All right. Mr. McNeil, while I respect your opinion, I think you have confirmed the wisdom of my 20-year sentence.”
The FBI arrested McNeil in November 2015 after he used social-media websites to profess his support for ISIS, prosecutors said. A file he posted Sept. 24, 2015 on his Tumblr page had the header “Islamic State Hacking Division,” followed by “Target: United States Military” and “Leak: Addresses of 100 U.S. Military Personnel.”
The file, first posted by someone else in March 2015, is a .gif, which allows multiple images to be looped. The text of the first file encouraged people who saw it to kill the military members “in their own lands, behead them in their own homes, stab them to death as they walk their streets thinking that they are safe…”, prosecutors said.
He also made similar postings on Twitter and Tumblr at least two other times….
On Wednesday, McNeil began the sentencing hearing by refusing to stand when the judge entered the room, a customary sign of respect done in most court cases. Before his parting words, he only gave terse “yes” and “no” answers when the judge asked him questions….
McNeil’s social media accounts were filled with ISIL propaganda and statements such as “I can’t wait for another 9/11, Boston bombing, or Sandy Hook!!!”, according to the government’s sentencing memo….

McNeil: “So we’ll wait for the punishment of Allah to afflict you, either by himself or through the hands of the Muslims”
Judge Polster: “All right. Mr. McNeil, while I respect your opinion…” Oh, really?
Jack Diamond says
and Qur’an 8:17 “You killed them not but Allah killed them. And you threw not when you did throw, but Allah threw, that He might test the believers by a fair trial from Him. Verily, Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower).”
“Allah states that He creates the actions that the servants perform and that whatever good actions they take, it is He Who should be praised for them, for He directed and helped them perform these actions. …Allah then mentioned the handful of sand that His Prophet threw at the disbelievers during the day of Badr, when he went out of his bunker…Allah made this handful of sand enter the eyes of the idolators, each one of them were struck by some of it and it distracted them making each of them busy. Allah said (And you threw not when you did throw, but Allah threw.)
Therefore, it is Allah Who made the sand reach their eyes and busied them with it, not you (O Muhammad) .”
–Tafsir Ibn Kathir

“Thus we come to the following account concerning the slaughter of ‘Amr bin Hisham, a pagan Arab chieftain originally known as “Abu Hakim” (Father of Wisdom) until Muhammad dubbed him “Abu Jahl” (Father of Stupidity) for his staunch opposition to Islam.
After ‘Amr was mortally wounded by a new convert to Islam during the Battle of Badr, Abdullah ibn Mas‘ud, a close companion of Muhammad, saw the “infidel” chieftain collapsed on the ground. So he went to him and started abusing him. Among other things, Abdullah grabbed and pulled ‘Amr’s beard and stood in triumph on the dying man’s chest.
According to Al-Bidaya wa Al-Nihaya (“The Beginning and the End”), Ibn Kathir’s authoritiative history of Islam, “After that, he [Abdullah] slit his [‘Amr’s] head off and bore it till he placed it between the hands of the Prophet. Thus did Allah heal the hearts of the believers with it.”
This, then, is the true significance of Koran 9:14-15: “Fight them, Allah will torment them with your hands [mortally wounding and eventually decapitating ‘Amr], humiliate them [pulling his beard], empower you over them [standing atop him], and heal the hearts of the believers, removing the rage from their hearts [at the sight of his decapitated head].”
Jack Diamond says
The 20 year sentence was a plea bargain to avoid a jury trial where he would likely have faced a life sentence. Meaning, he will be back in American society in a few years, despite being an admitted traitor, despite tweeting “just thinking of getting martyred puts a smile on my face” and “I’ll be proud when I sled [sic] american blood” (no, not a genius is Mr. McNeil, good thing he has Muhammad to do his thinking for him).
And no doubt he will be allowed to share his “opinions” with other inmates and be given the comfort of a Qur’an and visiting Imam. Because we all respect those opinions of his so much.
mortimer says
One wonders ‘how much’ the judge ‘respected’ Mr. McNeil’s death threats and those of Mr. McNeil’s jihad buddies who might remember the judge’s name and so search for the judge’s address.
Oliver says
I don’t know about Ohio or other states but in Florida police and other law enforcement people and judges . Active and retired are sealed
john spielman says
the judge should have doubled his sentence!
John Forbes says
RIGHT ! Why does the US legal system not DOUBLE the sentence on hearing threats like this ??
It is not only the JUDGE that is under threat but the SYSTEM itself !
STAND up for your Democracy & its legal system !
Stop appeasement and put an END to the COWARDICE in facing this Ideology that certainly is NOT PEACEFUL !!
Bacondoublecheeseburger says
I think because at the point where sentence has been set and being read the case has already been closed and the threat would now become a new charge Allowing for possibly even stiffer sentence to be served consecutive to the previous sentence.
Lawrence Deans says
What judge Polster should have said: “Well, Allah don’t run this court sir, I do. Have fun in prison.”
Bsrat says
No critical thinking in islam. Westerners no point in applying your way of seeing things and using your standards of morality islam is a religion and a political movement that looks to subjudgae and eliminate any one that refuses to embrace it. It needs to be viewed as a cult of death and not of peace.
No other religion to the best of my knowledge in this day and age threatens people with death to none believers and apostates but islam. Others use the rewards of afterlife to bring people in to their belife system. Islam is rotten Muslims do islam.
Good day

A judge is not required to *respect* opinions. How creepy to say he respects the opinion of someone whose opinion is he is going to suffer and die from terrorism.
JawsV says
Yes, that was quite unnecessary. Islam isn’t worthy of respect by anyone much less a Judge.
Norger says
He was acutely aware that he was literally “on the [stenographic] record” and didn’t want to say anything “offensive” or “disrespectful” towards Islam. That’s what multiculturalism requires. When we hear these kinds of ugly theological statements, we must pretend not to be offended, and even to “respect” these statements. It’s suicidally insane.
Irene Brekelmans says
that is the incredible stupidity, in the so called heaven, most of us will get an astral body and you can’t get 72 virgins and you can’t have sex. How can anybody with a brain believe that + in your next incarnation you will get the karma from this one.
And how can you ever believe that your Allah and your prophet can win this battle against a God and Jesus Christ who only preached Love and forgiveness.
YOU CAN NEVER WIN FROM LOVE, as Love is the highest goal in life that we all have to learn.
And it is not a battle to loose or to win, you muslims should read and understand the Bible and not because it is the Book of the kafir or the Jews, it is simple THE BOOK of Love. It is all about all of us, and how we have to love our enemies as ourselves. We are all a part of God, we separated ourselves and
acted like we are all individuals, but in reality, we are not, we are all ONE of that one God, so all you do to us, you do to yourself and you are hurting yourselves. And I am trying very hard to see it that way, and I surely hope I can stay in my own trust and peace, but muslims, you make it very hard for me and many others to still respect the God inside you.
The Indians from America knew and the Aboriginals from Australian knew, and we all would call them “primitive”. Who were the primitives? We were. We are all out for ourselves and became individuals, those people, they were united in villages, ofcourse they had fights too, as there always be people with big ego’s and dictatorials, but they understood THE COSMIC LAWS which are for everybody living in our Universe and others. One day you will remember these words and you will be sorry as I am sorry about all wars, killing, raping , stoning,mutilating,flogging, beating. You people from the religion of peace have no idea, neither do the leftists/globalists/feminists, governments, presidents, bankers, companies and a lot of others. We shall see and we will.
Lydia says
Humanity has no part in God, God is separate and always was. There is no ‘god’ in mankind, no divinity at all. They are all born in a state of sin, the sin nature at work all around us is what we see on a daily basis. Only God is God and divine (Trinity, Father, Son, Holy Spirit). Unless one repents and turns to Jesus Christ, they have no fellowship with God until then, that is when they are reconciled and the Holy Spirit indwells you with the baptism of the Holy Spirit (which I had, it is real, make no mistake), it is only through Jesus’ work on the cross (atonement) that this is possible. The church is steeped in new age apostasy which has infiltrated through books, movies, music, false teachers, wolves in sheep’s clothing, etc. Just rely on the Bible, God’s Word.

Not everyone believes what you or I do. Obviously enough. So what more can you / we / others expect of them? There are two simple options. Convert or destroy those who wish to perpetuate such madness as islam. Allow them the same choice for the next 1400 years they have provided others for the last 1400.

“So we’ll wait for the punishment of Allah to afflict you, either by himself or through the hands of the Muslims, and then we’ll see. Inshallah.”
Bold words, but what will be the criteria Mr. McNeil uses to make his assessment?
If he goes to a federal supermax prision, he will live for the next 20 years in a cell that’s 7’x12′, with one window 4” wide. This houses his living area, toilet, and bed. He’ll have a small TV. He’ll spend 23 hrs/day in his cell.
For the next 20 years the judge will have his freedom, likely have a family and many friends and colleagues in his social and professional circle. He’ll likely live in a clean, spacious and expensive house. He’ll go where he wants, when he wants, and retire to a comfortable private life full of many rewarding activities.
So, who has Allah blessed? Many of us might say that material success in this life is not necessarily the sign of a life well lived. If choosing between Mother Theresa and a drug lord dripping in gold and jewels, we’d know who was blessed by God. But I’m pretty sure McNeil isn’t Mother Theresa. He’ll likely find some meaning for the tragic waste of the next 20 years of his life, but perhaps he’s sometimes wonder why Allah leaves him in that tiny cell. We’ll see.

Ohio: Muslim threatens judge with “punishment of Allah…either by himself or through the hands of the Muslims”
……………..
Yet more threats from the “religion of peace”…
mortimer says
How many jihadists will it take for Americans to say ‘ENOUGH ALREADY! GET THESE JIHADISTS OUT OF HERE!’
ItsReallyQuiteClear says
Why do this animal’s words not constitute felony harassment, or some similar charge that other people face when they threaten judges? If the judge — and most Western governments, apparently — consider Islam to be a legitimate religion, then he should know that this was a death threat. And if he doesn’t believe that Islam is a legitimate religion, then why did he say he respected this animal’s opinion? I don’t have to look up the court transcripts to know that no judge said that to Charles Manson.
Our political leaders aren’t just kicking the can down the road, they’re kicking their, and our children’s future down the road. The longer they avoid dealing with this problem the harder it will be to resolve, and the fewer options there will be.
Jacqueleen says
ALLAH IS SATAN…Followers of Islam are Satan worshipers and his army…..When will civilized people wake up to this fact. Yes this conflict will go on to the day of judgement because Jesus Christ together with Mary, His Mother will crush the head of Satan…..and put an end to him and his treachery. ISOLATE THE MUSLIMS BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE….EVICT THEM ALL BACK TO SAUDI ARABIA FOR FINANCING THEM AND TO YEMEN FOR TRAINING THEM TO LIVE IN TENTS AND CAVES where the uncivilized belong..Then ban them from entry into a civilized nation…..ISOLATION IS KEY… Examples: Purgatory, Hell and JAIL. THE LEFT ARE INSANE AND SO ARE THEIR POLICIES….
