“When Kennewick Officer Jason Kiel got out of his car to talk with him, Hassan charged and started hitting Kiel in the head with the sword.”
Maybe he was trying to get at Kiel’s neck, in accord with the Qur’an’s command: “When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks” (Quran 47:4).
The Islamic State issued this call in September 2014:
So O muwahhid, do not let this battle pass you by wherever you may be. You must strike the soldiers, patrons, and troops of the tawaghit. Strike their police, security, and intelligence members, as well as their treacherous agents. Destroy their beds. Embitter their lives for them and busy them with themselves. If you can kill a disbelieving American or European — especially the spiteful and filthy French — or an Australian, or a Canadian, or any other disbeliever from the disbelievers waging war, including the citizens of the countries that entered into a coalition against the Islamic State, then rely upon Allah, and kill him in any manner or way however it may be….If you are not able to find an IED or a bullet, then single out the disbelieving American, Frenchman, or any of their allies. Smash his head with a rock, or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car, or throw him down from a high place, or choke him, or poison him….
“UPDATE: Police identify Kennewick man killed in sword attack,” by Cameron Probert,” Tri-City Herald, August 13, 2017:
Kennewick police identified the man wielding a sword who was shot and killed by officers Sunday night.
Hussein Hassan, 46, of Kennewick, was walking on Olympia Street near 10th Avenue with the sword about 6:30 p.m. Witnesses said he seemed to be trying to hide the weapon with a newspaper.
When Kennewick Officer Jason Kiel got out of his car to talk with him, Hassan charged and started hitting Kiel in the head with the sword.
Just then, a second officer, Joshua Kuhn arrived. Kiel managed to pull back and both policemen drew their weapons and fired at Hassan.
Hassan was taken to Trios Southridge Hospital, where he died, said a police news release. Kiel suffered a head injury and was treated at Trios and later released.
Benton County Coroner John Hansens said a formal autopsy for Hassan is scheduled for 9 a.m. Wednesday.
The Tri-City Special Investigations Unit is continuing its investigation into the shooting. The special unit includes officers from other law enforcement agencies in the area. The agency involved in the shooting does not participate.
Kuhn and Kiel are on paid administrative leave pending the investigation….

Mohammed was obsessed with the JUGULAR VEIN and thought of cutting it as the ultimate humiliation.
When dying, Mohammed said he felt his jugular vein was being cut.
Police and those in frequent contact with Muslims will soon have to wear NECK DEFENDERS that resist knifing, stabbing and slashing.
Anne Smith says
Isn’t that what the US navy had to do when battling the Barbary pirates and why they are known as Leathernecks”?
lyle says
Actually it was the Marines, not regular Navy, that were called “leathernecks” but the reason is accurate.
Peacemaker says
The leftiest will blame the sword later. What a wonderful world !
Beauregard says

Anyone 21′ or closer to you with an edged weapon can get to you and kill you before you can draw your weapon.

According to KEPR TV “police say Hassan continued to attack the officer despite commands to stop and caused a head injury to the officer that required 17 staples to close.”
Jack Diamond says
Sudden Jihad Insanity Syndrome, plea forthcoming, no doubt the result of white racism:
“Last October, Hussein D. Hassan bit Kennewick Officer James Canada during a car prowling investigation.
Canada and Officer Miguel Ayala were called to Hassan’s home on the 1700 block of West Sixth Avenue. The details are unclear from court documents, but they contacted Hassan and ended up starting to arrest him for obstruction.
In the struggle to arrest him, Hassan bit Canada’s thumb, breaking the skin. Hassan, 46, was charged with assault, resisting arrest and and obstruction and was released when someone posted a $1,000 bond.
Court-appointed defense attorney Sam Swanberg asked for Eastern State Hospital doctors to evaluate Hassan’s ability to understand the proceedings and help in his defense.
But Hassan never showed up for his mental health evaluation on April 27 and a warrant was issued after he missed his May 3 court hearing in Benton County Superior Court.”
One of his children, Mohamed Dahir, took to Facebook this week to claim police officers wouldn’t have shot his father if he was white.
“If he was a white men I know they wouldn’t shot him. My dad is gone and just because he didn’t like the police, (and) only God knows the truth,” Dahir wrote. {His intro at Facebook is “Slave at ‘I Need Allah in My Life'” a group based in London, where this Somali family was before they came to the US).
Public records reveal little about the Kennewick father, who had worked in a potato processing plant in recent years.
Hassan claimed he was wrongly fired from ConAgra Lamb Weston after he fell in a freezer and had a back injury in 2013. He filed a small claims suit against his supervisor, claiming discrimination and workplace harassment because he is Muslim. He asked for $5,000.
His case, and a following appeal, were denied. {Islamophobia denied, forced to take up the sword}.
Court records also show he was living in Kennewick with his wife and had several children, ages 2 to 18.

Another Somali Muslim immigrant enriching America with his thumb-biting, law suiting, sword wielding presence. His sons will no doubt do him proud, if Mohamed is any indication.

Enjoyed reading that ere is one dickhead less in this world. Congratulations to those police officers who took out this jerk.
Would advice the authorities to keep an eye on the son as he seems to be as cuckoo as his father was.

According to TruthFeed “Kennewick, a small city of about 73,000 population, has been a hotbed of refugee resettlement over the years. The U.S. State Department, in cooperation with the United Nations, has distributed more than 475 refugees into Kennewick since 9/11 from Muslim-majority nations, according to the State Department’s online database. That includes 206 from Iraq, 99 from Somalia, 69 from Sudan, 31 from Afghanistan and nine just in the past 10 months from Syria.”
Hands. Full.

And Hassan just arrived in….not paradise? Oh well, too late now Hassan. Not to worry, after your pork blood bath, you will be introduced to 72 Jews, and guess what, you are the virgin. Enjoy.
FYI says
Well I’m sure he must be in islamic paradise now.
Or Hell as it’s actually known.
And as an ironic punishment,the only food on the menu is Bacon,the women are goats and satan is in the form of a pig.And they all speak not in Arabic.. but just for a laugh in,Hebrew.
“Whaat?You thought you’d get 72 virgins?
No.It’s 72 versions of…hell.That was,ehm,a misprint in the contract…we have so many lawyers down here y’know”

GOOD RIDDANCE.
I am reminded of a famous scene in the film ‘Temple of Doom” where a sword-wielding jihadi comes running toward the hero (played by Harrison Ford) and … simply gets blown away, BOOM.
dumbledoresarmy says
Correction.
The scene was actually in the film “Raiders of the Lost Ark”.
