“Sayfullo” means “sword of Allah.”
When Saipov was admitted into the U.S., he was no doubt deemed “moderate.”
“Eight people killed after terrorist Sayfullo Saipov of Uzbekistan drives Home Depot truck through bike lane,” by Reuven Blau, Jillian Jorgensen and Rocco Parascandola, New York Daily News, October 31, 2017:
Eight people were killed Tuesday afternoon in a Tribeca terrorist attack as a rental truck plowed through helpless riders on a lower Manhattan bike path, officials said.
Driver Sayfullo Saipov yelled “Allahu Akbar!” — Arabic for “God is great!” — after running the riders down from behind, their mangled bodies left scattered behind his runaway white pickup.
The 29-year-old suspect, a native of Uzbekistan, was arrested after a hero police officer shot him in the right hip following a Tribeca crash between the truck and a school bus.
Saipov, who came to the U.S. in 2010 and lived in Paterson, N.J., was waving a paintball gun and a pellet gun when Officer Ryan Nash arrived. The cop opened fired when the suspect refused to drop his weapons.
“This was an act of terror,” declared Mayor de Blasio at a somber One Police Plaza news conference. “And a particularly cowardly act of terror, aimed at innocent civilians.”
The truck jumped the curb near Houston St. at 3:04 p.m. and began bearing down on the unsuspecting bicyclists and pedestrians, officials said. Video showed crumpled two-wheelers and four bodies left in the vehicle’s deadly wake….
Voytek Gagalka says
Time for President Trump to enlarge his ban on Uzbekistan as well. Still better: enlarge it on all Mohammedan countries without exception.
Sons of Liberty says
YES ! These MARXIST DEMOCRAT JUDGES , that are blocking President Trumps BAN , need to be REMOVED fro the BENCH and ARRESTED for ENDANGERING AMERICANS.
abad says
That is the best idea yet, I am 1000% for it.
dumbledoresarmy says
TWEET him now. Tell him exactly that.
Tim says
hey, maybe a fellow inmate will make sayfullo’s head look like the front end of that truck.
MasQueNada says
One can only hope.
Georg says
Was happy to see the officer got him in the hip/abdomen. After that takes a good long while to heal he can rot in prison for the rest of his life. The inmates won’t take too kindly to him.
LeftisruiningCanada says
Unless the gaols there are like the ones in France and UK. What is percentage of mulsim inmates in NY state?
Georg says
Not sure the exact percentage of Muslims in NY prisons, but it’s drastically lower than in UK and our prison “Muslims” aren’t quite as authentic, shall we say. Have a relative who worked in NY prisons and spoke with him today; he let me know guys like this generally don’t do very well if inmates find out what they’ve done. Once they know someone’s killed children, or something similar, the perpetrator’s best days are bad if with population. The guards probably won’t care for him either and he may be taking some long sojourns up and down in the elevator (where there are no cameras).
LeftisruiningCanada says
Interesting, thanks for info. So hopefully not like a jihadi vacation resort then!
larry says
And he could be, like a virgin, as well.
Mockingjay says
– Now that it’s officially jihad terrorism, there’s no time to waste to get busy organizing that BIG anti-islamophobia/ pro-islam/ anti-racist/ anti Trump – rally, New Yorkers!
Boy am I looking forward to seeing another mass of people on the streets of another big Western city, and I REALLY can’t wait to find out which song they will use this time to show how totally forgiving and above violence they all are.
gravenimage says
True, Mockingjay–what will it take–an hour or two, at most–for Muslims to say how terrified they are about phantom “backlash” attacks.
This story will go from being about a Muslim slaughtering Infidel children to a “narrative” about fake Muslim victim-hood.
Greyhound Fancier says
The mohammedans are bullies who keep looking over their shoulder for their comeuppance.
Richard Paulsen says
True, muslims will say that they are afraid of what will happen to them now. CNN willingly forwarding their message.
Mockingjay says
– I don’t care about what the muslims will say. I care about what all those DAMN LEFTISTS will.
THEY are the REAL problem as far as I am concerned, as THEY are standing in the way of dealing with all of this realisticly, as well as effectively!
tim gallagher says
Yes, Mockingjay, how long can the Islamopanderers and Islamophiles go on being blind, deaf and dumb to all these evil Muslim terrorist attacks in countries all around the world? The degree of pathetic, pacifist surrender to vicious Islam, and the degree of what must be self-loathing amongst so many western, non-Muslim people staggers me. It must be some bizarre self-loathing or they wouldn’t keep putting up with these Muslim terrorist attacks. Even the dumbest bastards must finally wake up some day. Stop letting any Muslims into any non-Muslim countries and deport as many of the Muslims already polluting non-Muslim countries. There is no other possible solution to this problem. These terrorist attacks are going to go on and on. Of course, everyone here at Jihad Watch knows this. Muslims are a negative in every country they are allowed into. I just can’t believe everyone can’t see this by now. And shutting the door on Muslim migration will certainly let MUslims know their hate-filled, murderous attitude towards non-Muslims won’t be accepted anymore. Islam is barbaric evil and shouldn’t be allowed near any civilised nation. Some Muslims may cause little trouble, but it’s clear Muslims will always be a thousand times more trouble than any other group. Anyone who looks in the Koran knows why.
Greyhound Fancier says
Falafel and kebabs aren’t any way good enough to justify permitting mohammedans to live in a civilized country. They are too high maintenance.
It’s like putting a bunch of hand grenades in your house, wondering when something would set one off.
gravenimage says
Falafels were invented by the Copts for meatless Fridays, and I imagine humans have been putting meat and vegetables on sticks long before Islam ever came along.
tony says
Deport all Moslems. Moslem supporters must all be arrested.
sophie says
This horrific scene is around the corner from my apt in tribeca.The Highway is shut down , lots of olive cars from port authority and lots of schools for children down here. Many of the kids were out in costumes for halloween. The carnage could have been absolutely heart rendering . As it is more than enough people were murdered. and too close to world trade center. How he was able to get this far down with all of our protection now down here i don’t understand. As a 9/11 survivor i am shaken but also quite angry.As i look out of my window ,i feel flashbacks .
TheBuffster says
Islamic terrorism is the anti-gift that keeps on anti-giving, or rather taking. Once you’ve been in the midst of it, every new shot makes you relive the original a little.
Steady-on, Sophie.
gravenimage says
Glad you are OK, Sophie. I am praying for your neighbors.
Greyhound Fancier says
Many other people are angry, too. You are not alone.
dumbledoresarmy says
Sophie.
Get out the Psalms. Read Psalm 68.
Then… do you have Oriana Fallaci’s “The Rage and the Pride”??
You can probably find it online, if you dont. Read it. Out loud. *She* was in NYC on 9/11. And her response is like a firestorm of fury. Fierce, intelligent anger. Let it lift your spirits.
Then… tweet the POTUS. Tell him: Enough is enough! END *all* Muslim immigration, NOW. Deport ALL non-citizen Muslims. Intern the rest: because .. Got Muslims? Got Jihad… Follow up with another tweet – “I’m TIRED of playing this deadly game of ‘Muslim roulette'”.
Are you a member of ACT for America? If not: join up today! And start fighting back against Islamisation.
Also: you can always put a few dollars in Mr Spencer’s ‘tip jar’ to help keep him up and running.. and *educating and warning*.
Don’t allow yourself to be paralysed. Be angry: and act.
dumbledoresarmy says
Sophie. I am an Aussie. My country is an ally and friend of the USA.
I well remember 9/11. And so many other mass-murderous Muslim acts of war on Infidel soil in our free Infidel lands, since then.
Please accept my condolences.
And.. I am *glad* that you feel angry. It means you are not submitting; that you are preparing to fight.
*I* am angry too. I have absolutely had enough of these viciously-evil mohammedan mass-murderers who get their ‘high’ by slaughtering the defenceless in pursuit of a megalomaniacal dream of Total World Domination. I am furious with them. If the NYPD raided a whole bunch of NYC mosques and went through them like a bucket of salts, and then… shut them down and THEN brought in the demolition men and bulldozed them flat, I’d be cheering, you’d hear me from halfway around the world.
Down with the mosques! and .. OUT with the Muslims. It’s going to have to come to that, if any free Infidel countries are going to survive, anywhere.

NYC “Allahu akbar” truck jihad mass murderer identified as Sayfullo Saipov from Uzbekistan
…………………..
Another Jihadist from the ‘Stans–just like the Tsarnaev brothers.
More:
“Sayfullo” means “sword of Allah.”
…………………..
Thank you, Mr. Spencer–the first thing I did on learning his name was Google it, but I was unable to find any information. This does not surprise, though.
Westman says
I think this is the Uzbekistan equivalent of the Arabic “Khalid”, for a mass murderer (in the name of Islam) of the 7th century – Khalid bin al-Walid. He is known as, ” the sword of Allah”, and made a business out of killing “apostates” after Muhammad’s death.
http://raymondibrahim.com/2014/03/16/allahs-sword-of-terror/
Ed Lee says
Just another dismal footnote here about American media: On a Yahoo News article about the attack, I posted the fact that the name “Sayfullo” means “sword of Allah.” My comment was deleted within one minute.
gravenimage says
Very depressing, Ed.
Richard Paulsen says
Regrets. Very sorry. He was from the same country as the one who on April 7 2017 – just a few months ago -. murdered some 5 persons on Drottninggatan in central Stockholm, Sweden. Just outside a big store. Using a truck.
Take care, Be careful.
TVstations spreading hate against President Donald Trump and writers writing hateful books about him should be ashamed. Supporting terrorists.
gravenimage says
I had forgotten about the Jihad truck attack in Sweden. That makes at least six nations now–and there are probably more.
tony says
At first the MSM refused to call it a terrorist attack but then they had to relent and called it what it was. If it is a Moslem yelling about his fake god then it is a terrorist attack.
Skeptic Sam says
CNN has yet to use the word “Muslim” in their reporting, and of course there is a question about motive.
Geoffrey Britain says
It will take years, if ever… to determine his motive.
Greyhound Fancier says
He was a victim of Sudden Jihad Syndrome.
David M says
The Washington (Com) Post the same, their headline is “man” “truck” etc, no mention of Islam or Muslim. They have finally relented & admitted terrorism, unfortunately for the Washington Compost everyone knows we are talking Muslims when terrorism is mentioned.
Georg says
One British politician was, thankfully, ridiculed for referring to it as a “vehicle attack” on Twitter.
LeftisruiningCanada says
Vehicles don’t kill kaffirs… Jihadis kill kaffirs with Vehicles..
tim gallagher says
The reports we get on radio and TV in Australia always (about all these murderous terrorist acts) just say a “terrorist attack”, never a Muslim terrorist attack or an Islamic terrorist attack. Of course, by now, we all know it is a Muslim terrorist attack, as you say David M, but I still think it is dishonest to just call these attacks “terrorist attacks.” It’s still a refusal to tell the truth. It’s still PC crap. I just watched a TV news report ( the main news at 6pm out here) and this New York attack was said to be “committed by a madman”. Such lying garbage yet again by whoever wrote the script. The guy might be mad. But the reason he’s done this is because he is a Muslim. This news report didn’t mention Muslim at all. The way this stuff is reported is lying garbage. And the media should have dropped these types of lies long ago.
Krazy Kafir says
Obviously he didn’t have explosives on the truck, so no virgins that way. No guns either, but, he did want to die, so the fake guns would ensure that. Oops.
That one dude you know says
Brought to you by Islam I expect more copy cats to this soon. I expect plenty of Americans coming out to show thier love and solidarity with the Muslims. I don’t expect plenty of Muslims coming out to show thier support for the victims family. But that’s just my thinking. Call me crazy.
LeftisruiningCanada says
Obviously crazy, since REAL islam is peaceful so why should they give a damn.
Mantel says
Another act of Islamic jihadism from a devout Uzbek muslim. Act was not an “extremist abberation” This was an offering to Allah following the dictates of Canonical Islam.
The message is clear, the USA is now Dar al harb .
This brainwashed murderer had his name of “sword of Allah” and he carried out it’s meaning. Can these Muslims make their intention any clearer?
Georg says
Not sure we should be allowing anyone named “sword of Allah” entry to our country. Pretty good sign he’s been inculcated in superlative hatred from the get-go.
Joeyn says
As far as the Left is concerned he should be the first to be let into the USA. Remember the Left met with AlQaeda to get rid of President Trump.
Jimbo says
But but but ….Islam means peace. all you horrible islamophobes. only following the peaceful Koran. whats the problem here???/ werent these ppl just infidels ????? we know what mohomed & islam thinks about infidels. just killing in the way of allah ! what prblem.??
its just religion folks. like all other religions… apparently. and nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism or islam. islam means peace !!
No Fear says
Prayers will be said. Candlelight vigils will be held. Virtue signalling will go into overdrive. People will be told to not let this affect their routines.
In other words……suck it up America!
Greyhound Fancier says
Will de Blasio announce that this is normal and to be expected in a large city these days, a la the Lord Mayor of London?
mgoldberg says
Now the msm admits ‘terror’ attack, simply because alahu akbar was heard and verified. Now, this was just one jihadist, with a truck, no real other weapons, except… his Jihad, his desire to mow down ‘others’. Others means all others, in service to
his god and it’s command to commit death to all others.
Now, the idea that ‘muslims’ have been singled out, by Pres Trump’s immigration bans is laughable, since it was and remains a number of hot spot nations. But in fact, unless we understand that the Jihad of Islam comes from the entirety of the religion which does nothing to erase the ideology from it theology, nor erasing the teachings from their curriculums, we can never understand how to minimize the damage they will do and intend to do. Only by naming the Jihad as almost entirely Islamic can we force the 75% or so of muslims to show and name all the ‘militants’ and to call them out. I doubt we can ever do it unless the immigration ban names muslims as suspicious by theologic heritage, and all mosques as suspicious until and if they can demonstrate the erasure of Jihad from their curriculums. But that will of course, never happen
Terry Gain says
The safety of innocent people takes precedence over the desire of Muslims to emigrate. Islamic doctrine mandates Jihad. Why the hell should we bear the burden of knowing whether a Muslim is devout or a moderate? To hell with Islam.
Geoffrey Britain says
It is impossible to reliably determine the ‘moderate’ Muslim from the devout Muslim pretending to be moderate. It’s also very rare for non-violent Muslims to alert authorities to jihadists in their midst. Thus the adult ‘moderate’ Muslim condones and is complicit in the violence.
LeftisruiningCanada says
“To hell, with Islam”
Isn’t that Saudi Airways slogan?
Rolf Wittwer says
And in Mecca thousands of members of the “best of all religions” are still running around the black stolen rock, hoping of taking over our world soon by violence. Islam never ever contributed any peaceful deverlopment towards our planet.
It’s more and more just devilish destruction, bloody killing and intolerant terrible stoneaged demagogy which has settled in their sick brains!
God help us!

james moser says
Driver Sayfullo Saipov yelled “Allahu Akbar!” — Arabic for “God is great!”
WRONG!
The correct translation – AL (god) LAH (the moon god) is BIGGER (than your god). A statement that recognizes a pecking order of gods. The Qur’an states that Allah is the best of creators (creators is plural – more than one creators is recognized by Allah in his honkey book).
Jack Dawkins says
It’s henotheistic not monotheistic.
MasQueNada says
Borat warned us about Uzbekistan! Should of listened to him.
Expat88 says
Borat was from Kazakhstan not Uzbekistan. Of course it was all pretend.
MasQueNada says
Lighten up, “Expat88”! Borat (from Kazakhstan, yes) is a *character* played by Sacha Baron Cohen. In one scene Borat drives by the Uzbek embassy and goes ballistic about the sworn enemy.
We can’t all be grimly sober 100 percent of the time.
PaulM says
Just another faithful muslim that obama let in without any vetting as usual. The left will say that he was just exercising his freedom of religion. Those poor poor people and their families. My heart goes out the them. Get rid of all of this violent, fascist scum, every damn one of them. NO MUSLIMS, NO VIOLENCE.
Terry Gain says
You can’t vet Muslims. Belief in the evil ideology should be enough to bar entry.
Geoffrey Britain says
It is impossible to be a sincerely loyal American and also be Muslim without profound denial. Islam’s tenets and America’s founding principles are not just incompatible, they are antithetical. You cannot support both Marxist theory and Capitalist principles.
Ernie says
Deva , I think you are compromising the integrity of Jihad Watch here . You have crossed the red line . I sincerely hope your posting will be removed . You are calling for/ inciting murder here , and that’s forbidden by law .

Thank you Marc , well done !

Yes–comments like that are not tolerated here.

Could be–or he might just be an unaffiliated Muslim. Islam itself is enough for many Jihadists.

The Muslim way of saying thanks?
Georg says
Muslims thankful?
unbeleiver1 says
Oh, ye of the lib/left with your constant defence of all things Islamic! Any reason the perpetrators always quote and use the Koran in carrying out these attacks? Never the holy books of other religions, but the Koran(the Muslim ‘holy book’) exclusively, yet it never has anything to do with Islam.
unbeleiver1 says
Very interesting comment by Dr Zuhdi Jasser on the NY terror attack.
http://www.foxbusiness.com/markets/2017/12/01/nyc-attack-is-act-war-zuhdi-jasser.html
LeftisruiningCanada says
“We are at war and this ideology as much as we may feel better that ISIS is almost decimated and not only in Iraq and Syria, the ideology of Jihadism will continue to spread,” Jasser said
He’s not wrong. Seems like this guy’s not a favorite of the CAIR types? Is he alright?
James Nelson says
It will not happen in the US but the Russian solution has curbed terrorism. This terrorist would be killed but before his death, he would learn his family is also dead. Russian forces would kill mom, dad, brothers, sisters and all of his immediate family. Goodbye Grandma, goodbye Grandpa. Then he would die. Brutal but that is the Russian way.
Robert_k says
Sword of Allaah – an appropriate name for a knife-wielding Muslim terrorist.
Jerry says
All he wanted was the end of the occupation of Manhattan and Brooklyn
and a two state solution:
An Islamic State
and
A Chaotic State
LeftisruiningCanada says
Fair point. For the pious muslim there must surely be some historical evidence that shows Manhatten was first settled by islam, and so rightfully belongs to the umma instead of us.
Your idea of a two state solution has merit: The state he found it in, and the state he left it in – terrorised, once again.
