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

True romance in the UK: Muslims meet on SingleMuslim.com, plot jihad mass murder

Oct 31, 2017 12:52 pm By Robert Spencer

In the Spring a livelier iris changes on the burnish’d dove;
In the Spring a young man’s fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love….

Love took up the bombs of Death, and smote on all the infidels with might;
Smote them with ricin and hydrochloric acid, that, trembling, pass’d in music out of sight.

Many a morning on the moorland did we hear the corpses ring,
And her whisper throng’d my pulses with the jihad of the Spring.

(Okay, so I’m no Tennyson.)

“‘Couple who met on Muslim dating site SingleMuslim.com plotted bomb attack and shared gruesome ISIS beheading videos,'” by Tristan Kirk, Evening Standard, October 30, 2017 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Two terror suspects planned to carry out a bomb attack in the UK after meeting on a Muslim dating site, a court heard today.

Munir Hassan Mohammed, 36, and Rowaida El-Hassan, 33, tried to create an improvised explosive device after bonding over their extremist beliefs on SingleMuslim.com, it is claimed.

Mohammed had been radicalised by an Islamic State commander on Facebook and wanted to carry out a deadly terrorist attack by the time he set up a dating profile in a bid to find a wife, jurors heard.

By the spring of 2016 he was in regular contact with El-Hassan, a qualified pharmacist, who was looking for “a man who fears Allah before anything else”.

The pair shared gruesome videos of IS fighters beheading prisoners and recruiting children on WhatsApp as their online romance blossomed, jurors heard.

El-Hassan, who has a Masters degree in pharmacy from University College London, used her expert knowledge of chemicals to help Mohammed research and stockpile the ingredients needed for a bomb, the Old Bailey heard.

Prosecutor Anne Whyte, QC, said: “Munir Mohammed appears to have met Rowaida El-Hassan, a qualified pharmacist, through a Muslim dating website.

“Their communications with each other demonstrated an emotional attachment and a shared extremist ideology.

“They exchanged materials and views at the time, we say, Mohammed was planning to perform an attack of his own, motivated and inspired by what he had seen and heard on social media.”

She added: “Rowaida El Hassan had a professional knowledge of chemicals because of her professional training and qualifications.

“She assisted Mohammed by providing him with information about chemical components required for bomb making and how to source them and she assisted his online research about the manufacture of ricin using castor beans.

“In doing so she supported him in his engagement with attack planning.”

They are jointly charged with an offence under section 5 of the Terrorism Act 2006 – preparation of terrorist acts.’

Counter terror officers found bomb manuals and instructions for ricin and mobile phone detonators when they raided Mohammed’s Derby home on 12 December last year, it is said.

They also discovered 200ml of hydrogen peroxide and 500ml of hydrochloric acid – two of the components needed to make an unstable explosive.

When another team raided El-Hassan’s home in Willesden, northwest London, on the same day they found a 1 litre bottle of drain cleaner which contained Sulphuric acid at 91 per cent purity – another explosive component.

Ms Whyte said: “Both of them possessed material useful to someone wishing to manufacture improvised explosive devices – devices that are designed to injure or kill in an indiscriminate way.

“Both of them had also been in possession of videos which gruesomely and variously depicted the murder, sometimes multiple murder of prisoners in the custody of an organisation, familiar to you as Islamic State.

“These videos were designed to provide ideological justification for such acts of violence.”…

    Not so much wanting to get off the subject of the main above article above it nevertheless its now a specific “holiday” its’ an appropriate day to keyboard about the fusion of the topics of Islamic terrorism , jihadist threats and Halloween. Therefore the following essay may be fitting .

    Today is October 31, the time of Halloween. It’s the specific day of the year when some people might think of the non-entity of folklore which is the vampire. This fiction of myth is about a demonically raised blood drinking animated corpse. This monster is dangerous and deadly. Of course, such creatures don’t really exist.
    By contrast what or to be more accurate who really does exit is a totally different kind of monster who is the violent jihad-minded Muslim who in not a creature of folklore but a real person who might be demonically inspired person who because of his or her firm but blind and unquestioning faith in the false religion of Islam with its false doctrine a the Koranic based violent jihad of violence and killing for the advancement of Islam .As the Koran instructs in, for example in Sura 2:191. 5:33. 9:5, 111,123. 47:4. A person such as this is a real live “monster” who is definitely dangerous and deadly.
    So we need not fear monsters of folklore as vampires. Nevertheless, we should not fear but be on guard and have vigilance regarding the fiendish and scheming jihadists with their insidious and heinous violent and murderous militant jihadists in their deluded and irrational Islamic quest against Christianity, Judaism and Western civilization .

      Happy Reformation Day!

    Looking at those two mugshots, I guess they were each hoping to do a suicide attack rather than have to consummate their ‘relationship’.

      I hate to tell you this, but they probably think of each other as well as themselves as physically attractive, if not beautiful. In addition, they probably consider themselves to be morally, spiritually, physically, intellectually, and mentally superior to their western hosts. The blessing here is that they did not reproduce themselves prior to their arrests.

      Unfortunately, these two goons will be given very light sentences and will no doubt go about correcting their lack of progeny ASAP when set free. No doubt, someone in our state department will think they deserve to be here and they will be.

      What hog wash. The black gal appropriated Caucasian or Asian culture by getting a process job. The latina complains about cholo/chola culture appropriation. Does that include the M tats, guns, and violence from the gangs?

      Let’s face it, people borrow, copy, steal, or otherwise get something from other people they meet. Oh, and any of these that speak English should renounce English and speak only their native dialects, not Spanish, French, or other European languages, either. Then they should insist that no one outside of their native group be allowed to speak said dialect. While we are at it, ALL of them have appropriated western clothing. I suggest they run around in grass or animal skin clothing, or their birthday suits. Let’s see how long that dialogue lasts.

      All those girls need to obtain from somewhere a sense of humor.

      Probably won’t be found in the colleges they are attending.

      They don’t seem to mind parodying western dress culture though. How offensive!

      The doctrines of “Al Walaa wal Baraa” (Islamic apartheid and hatred of kafirs for the sake of Allah) and “Jihad and Hegira” (Fighting non-Muslims and Strategic Migration) are two COMPULSORY “ESSENTIAL” DOCTRINES of Islam that every Muslim must practice or be sent to hellfire for being a HYPOCRITE from Islam.

    It’s time to stop the arrests.
    Just raid the homes of known jihadists and kill them on the spot! Everyone else will be safer and case closed.

    You can see, the refugees and other muslims, they are free to study in the Western countries and later they always misuse it to turn against us. Educated or not,, it does not seem to make any difference.
    I sometimes wonder about them if they are even human. It is so monstrous. They should be deported and the borders should be closed and the ones inside our countries should be deported. I never thought I would say that. The person with my believes in life that I was, I am not any more, and I never thought I would become, so I have to watch myself that I become a hard person opposite the religion of death.

    The two from Pakistan that shot up San Bernardino were way ahead of these two. Unfortunately, no one spoke up for fear of being called bigot or racist.

    Welcome to our brave new world.

      NAMBLA would disagree with that.
