NYC truck jihad mass murderer brags about his massacre from hospital bed

Nov 1, 2017 11:28 am By Robert Spencer

Of course he is pleased. He has fulfilled the commands of Allah and gained for himself a place in Paradise. From his point of view, he has every reason to be happy today.

“Muminov said Saipov ‘had no knowledge of the Koran’ when they met and was not well-educated.”

Pull my other leg, Muminov. Saipov seems to have grasped those “kill them wherever you find them” bits (2:191, 4:89, 9:5) well enough.

“NYC terror suspect Sayfullo Saipov brags about attack from hospital bed,” by Stefan Becket, CBS News, November 1, 2017:

NEW YORK — The suspect in Tuesday’s terrorist attack in lower Manhattan bragged to police about the deadly attack from his hospital bed, saying he would have continued mowing down bikers and pedestrians had he not crashed.

Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov, 29, told police he is pleased with his actions and is unapologetic for the attack, sources tell CBS News. One source said Saipov made “no bones” about the attack, which killed 8 people and injured at least 11.

Investigators also discovered 10 to 15 pieces of paper with writing in Arabic praising the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. One note said “ISIS will endure,” sources say.

Authorities also recovered knives at the scene.

Saipov was allegedly driving a Home Depot rental truck when he deliberately drove onto a bike lane along Manhattan’s West Side Highway. He drove for several blocks before slamming into a school bus and coming to a stop. Police say he exited the vehicle and shouted “God is great” in Arabic before being shot by police and taken into custody.

The FBI has taken over the investigation into the attack.

Saipov is a native of Uzbekistan and entered the U.S. in 2010, according to a law enforcement official. He worked as a truck driver and has lived in Ohio, New Jersey and Tampa, Florida, since arriving in the U.S., BBC News reports.

Mirrakhmat Muminov, an Uzbek activist and blogger in Ohio, told BBC News he met Saipov shortly after he arrived in the country and was living in Ohio. Muminov said Saipov “had no knowledge of the Koran” when they met and was not well-educated. He said Saipov soon became depressed and resentful after he was unable to find a job as a truck driver. Muminov said Saipov was radicalized by information he saw on the internet.

“Because of his radical views he frequently used to argue with other Uzbeks and moved to Florida. From then onwards I lost contact with him,” Muminov told BBC News….

    I am saying something obvious. After mowing down and killing people he jumped out his Home Depot rent-a-truck brandishing his paintball guns. He wanted the police to to shoot and kill him so he would achieve Islamic martyrdom. But the police on the scene merely shot him in his leg, thus we now we have to go through a multi million dollar trial for this slug.

      “Saipov was allegedly driving a Home Depot rental truck …” Isn’t it about time to stop this ‘allegedly’ crap? This guy needs a short drop and a quick stop, immediately after a penectomy.

    His brafgadocio is compensation for his disappointment. The plan was suicide-by-cop and then a throne in Jannat, the Islam porno heaven. He is a bona fide jihadist now, but a live one. No throne and piles of peach fuzz houris yet. Maybe he should strangle a nurse to death and then he’s in.

      APF, I disapprove of your suggestion. Please think more carefully.

      • Alarmed Pig Farmer says

        Nov 1, 2017 at 1:14 pm

        Think more carefully about what? We’ve known for centuries that Moslem activists have no fear of death, and that’s because of Jannat the Islam porno heaven, and who could blame them. And there is a 99% chance that he carried the two toy guns to commit suicide by cop… so as to be admitted into Jannat, the Islam porno heaven.

      • gravenimage says

        Nov 1, 2017 at 8:27 pm

        Mortimer, I think you know APF well enough to know that he was not actually “suggesting” that this Jihadist murder a nurse.

        If not the single unlucky nurse then who – another 100+ unlucky bomb victims and their broken, shredded bodies ?

        Police should make sure next time that they don’t live – send them to that Great Bordello in the sky.

      He only has to kill fighting in allah’s cause to earn a free ticket to porno paradise. “They kill and are killed” in 9:111 are understood separately. Tafsir Ibn Kathir “(They fight in Allah’s cause, so they kill and are killed.) indicates that whether they were killed or they kill the enemy, or both, then Paradise will be theirs.”

      He’s already in. He killed 8 enemies of allah and muhammad. Remember the Muslim who murdered his Jewish neighbor in Europe a few years back? He was heard screaming “I have killed my Jew!” in triumph. He was also in.

      • gravenimage says

        Nov 1, 2017 at 8:33 pm

        True, Jack. He just can’t access Jihad porno paradise *yet*…

    • Chand says

      Nov 2, 2017 at 12:13 am

      Some Afghan tribals or Arab semi literates might be believing in Jannat porno heaven for martyrs of Jihad. But most Muslims are ingrained with this instinct to immediately aid other Muslims whenever and wherever attacked. That’s why they identify themselves and others with their beards and caps. Their prophet asked them to sport beards to separate themselves from the infidels. In most Muslim minority countries any Muslim in some kind of trouble in public will immediately attract other Muslims passing by to come to his/her aid. And if things turns ugly a cry of ‘Allah O Akbar’ will make them swarm together into a horde to resist non-Muslims.
      More than any wish for the Houris in porno paradise it is this instinct to avenge some perceived injustice or harm done to other Muslims that drives them to act thus.

        “Al Wala wal-Baraa, Allegiance and Association with People of Islam and Emaan and Disassociation and Enmity with the People of Falsehood and Disbelief in Islam.

        “The example of the Muslims is like a body, if one part of it gets hurt, then all the body shares that hurt.”
        —Shaykh Saalih bin Fawzaan at Fawzaan, Calgary Islamic Homepage

        Nov 3, 2017 at 10:56 pm

        Chand’s claim that all Jihadists are just “avenging” harm done to Muslims is just sickeningly false. None of the bicyclists Sayfullo Saipov murdered did anything to Muslims–what a load of crap.

  3. Brennan Kingsland says

    Nov 1, 2017 at 11:51 am

    Poor little terrorist! He didn’t die in the attack so he has to wait to go to Allah/Satan’s paradise! He didn’t complete his mission correctly…he was supposed to die in the act to get all the goodies. Stop bragging…you flubbed it, jerk!

    Wolfman became resentful after not being able to get a job as a truck driver.More than likely would have mowed people down on the first hour after getting the job.

    • Santa Voorhees says

      Nov 1, 2017 at 12:03 pm

      On the first hour? You do realize you are too optimistic, aren’t you?

      It’s more likely he would mow down people on the first minute after getting the job…

        I think unbeliever 1 is being ironic.

    All the “knowledge” they need is to read the line in the Koran that commands them, and that line can be discovered by any of them by happenstance and not intent. In 2010, an Uzbek robot was given a pass to enter USA, was gifted with a “Green Card” and the freedom to have residd in three U.S. states, passing freely between them enroute to his destinations. He did so, and the Koran was available to him at any time.
    In other words, he was far freer here than the Muslim-dominated state of Uzbekistan. Yesterday, in NYC, came the result of his freedom in the U.S.A. He didn’t qualify for most jobs in America because he had little to no education, but somehow he found the line in the Koran which commanded him to kill. That, he did understand, and the finances to rent a truck from Home Depot were available to him, job or no job. Still, Americans do not swallow the absolute fact that Islam intends and does make war on this nation, and no need for a formally declared war by Islam is necessary. The command has existed in their Koran since Islam originated, 1400+-years ago. Consider how that command energizes them to kill, believing in their righteousness to obey the Koran.

    Any Muslim can be RADICALIZED from merely reading Islam’s holy book… no computer or internet connection is required.

    The Koran’s 164 Jihad Verses: K 002:178-179, 190-191, 193-194, 216-218, 244; 003:121-126, 140-143, 146, 152-158, 165-167,169, 172-173, 195; 004:071-072, 074-077, 084, 089-091, 094-095,100-104; 005:033, 035, 082; 008:001, 005, 007, 009-010, 012, 015-017, 039-048,057-060, 065-075; 009:005, 012-014, 016, 019-020, 024-026, 029,036, 038-039, 041, 044, 052, 073, 081, 083,086, 088, 092, 111, 120, 122-123; 016:110; 022:039, 058, 078; 024:053, 055; 025:052; 029:006, 069; 033:015, 018, 020, 023, 025-027, 050; 042:039; 047:004, 020, 035; 048:015-024; 049:015; 059:002, 005-008, 014; 060:009; 061:004, 011, 013; 063:004; 064:014; 066:009; 073:020; 076:008.

    All the politicians and talking heads on TV keep stressing, “We must combat the IDEOLOGY behind these terror attacks”. But the source of this “ideology” is rarely accurately identified. I heard that Jihadist ideology comes from “the internet”, or “ISIS”, or “radical Imams”, or even more misleading, “a perversion of a great religion”..
    The source of Jihadist ideology is simply the KORAN! The book that ALL Muslims consider divine and perfect for all people for all time. It’s a crime punishable by death to even question the Koran. WHY ARE THE MURDEROUS, GENOCIDAL VERSES OF THE KORAN OFF-LIMITS TO CRITICIZE OR EVEN DISCUSS (in the main-stream media, not here at JW)?

    • john vieira says

      The mainstream media long ago, as did sundry politicians, collected their “thirty pieces of (Petro$) silver” and for their treachery and greed are beholden to the ‘rot of the earth’. It is interesting that these idiots are not even aware of their ‘kinship’ to Judaism…Ishmael was the outside son of Abraham…thus making them ‘blood brothers’. Also they accept Jesus as a ‘prophet’ and their very existence is an abomination of his teachings…not to mention that their (un)holy book ‘orders’ them to break the 2nd of the 2 Great Commandments and thus has automatically consigned them ALL to Hell for the last 1400 years…does NOT take a brilliant theologian to figure that one out…just exemplifies the ‘calibre’ of theirs…

    • Anne Smith says

      I believe the writer Salman Rushdie did that and the upshot was (under the feeble and weak Prime Minister John Major) that we had book burnings in the streets, Muslims rioting in all the major towns, and the poor long suffering British taxpayers were forced to stump up millions to pay for 24 hour protection for Rushdie.

      If Major had had any gumption he would have ordered the rounding ;up of the Imams who pronounced the fatwa on Rushdie and had them slung in jail or deported.

      Allowing them to set the pace and control the outcome gave them the green light for everything we now face today.

      • gravenimage says

        Nov 3, 2017 at 11:02 pm

        The Fatwa against Rushdie–and Muslims rioting in its aftermath–was the first most of us in the West really learned about the threat of Islam here.

    If I wrote a book calling for the murder of those who refused to follow my beliefs, I would be arrested for “incitement to murder”. So why does the KORAN get away with it? It’s a given that Saipov will be allowed to possess his “murder manual” in prison – hell, he probably has one in his hospital bed right now.

    • StacyGirl says

      Nov 1, 2017 at 4:30 pm

    The news media should not repeat the Islamic mantra, allauh akbar, whenever they cover a story about terrorism because it emboldens these maniacs and gives them a sexual excitement. The terrorists love to hear us repeat their killing slogan. Instead, the media should just say an Islamic mantra was said and not repeat the actual mantra.

    A Muslim becomes “radicalized” when they learn what is really in the Quran and Hadith. A “moderate” Muslim is one who has never or hardly ever read the Quran or Hadith. An “Imam” is a Muslim who knows what is in the Quran and Hadith and, if he operates in a non-Muslim country, lies about it.

    • dumbledoresarmy says

      ONCE he recovers from the gut shot: in jail, he should be required to clean out pig pens. (When the pigs aren’t there, so he can’t try to harm the poor pigs). Make videos of him doing it. If he refuses to clean the pig pens, he gets no food until he does.

      And: cold Turkey off Islam. No quran, no halal food, no qibla, NO imam visits, no contact with other Muslims in prison. And keep him away from the non-Muslim prison population: NO ‘prison dawa’ opportunities.

    Nov 1, 2017 at 7:48 pm

    From Muminov-
    More of the predictable attempts to try to separate the attacker from islam.
    Yeah, sure he had no knowledge of the koran- He just liked to cool, hip look of fundamentalist muslims; you know, the cool haircut, clothes, and hot, manly beard with no moustache… Right!
    Every time, it’s the same BS from the other side. Every time.
    Closed and shut, I suppose- The guy was some deranged ‘lone wolf’ nutsack who’d just lost his marbles, and just HAPPENED to be cultivating the look of a fundamentalist/salafist/wahabbist/terrorist/jihadist.
    Now on to the ‘backlash’ against the poor muslims here in America.
    Time for the networks to get back to reporting about Russia.

    • dumbledoresarmy says

      Nov 2, 2017 at 2:13 am

      Yeah. I reckon this “Mirrakhmat Muminov, an Uzbek activist and blogger in Ohio” should be investigated very, very closely indeed, by the FBI and CIA and, frankly, it might be worth having a very quiet word with the Russians to see if they have anything on him.

      What is he an ‘activist’ ABOUT? What is he blogging ABOUT?

      I wouldn’t believe a word he says. He’s blowing smoke to protect his own aZZ and/ or to protect the ummah; to confuse/ distract/ deflect/ waste time.

      The cops should raid his house and the mosque he attends. And examine his finances, and his associates.

      How did *he* get into the USA? When? Does he have citizenship? How does he support himself?

      Lots of questions.
