He wanted crystal meth and to talk with President Trump. “‘He is Middle Eastern,’ confirmed a police source. ‘I believe he’s originally from Egypt.’ One witness said there was no references to any religious or terror allegiances in the man’s rantings. The only thing political was the name ‘Trump.'”
Maybe this man was drug-addled or genuinely insane. If so, taking hostages and strapping on a suicide vest was still well within his cultural frame of reference. And so that is what he did.
“WARMINGTON: Vaughan hostage taker wore suicide vest, demanded to speak with Trump,” by Joe Warmington, Toronto Sun, December 14, 2017:
Demanding to talk to United States President Donald Trump, the 25-year-old man had nine bombs strapped to a suicide vest, a detonator in one hand and a gun in the other.
And he was threatening to use his entire arsenal inside an RBC branch — at the corner of Major MacKenzie Dr. and Dufferin St. in Vaughan — where he had up to 13 hostages Wednesday.
“He was waving his gun around,” said a person who was on the scene. “He was not demanding money. He asked for no money. He said he wanted crystal meth and he wanted to talk to Trump.”
He also asked for panicked bank employees to call police.
Police are working to determine whether his arsenal or threats were real. But York Regional Police did not take any chances. After a robot was deployed inside the bank, two officers took him out with gunshots.
“I am glad that they did,” said one person who was inside the building before being told to get out by police. “It was a scary situation when a guy has bombs and a gun.”
This investigation is still very much in its early stages with forensics to determine what was authentic. The province’s Special Investigation’s Unit, which investigates police shootings, was all over this taped-off scene Thursday.
One source who was on the scene said officers tried everything they could to get the man to surrender and to free his hostages.
“In the end there was no negotiating with him. He didn’t want to talk anymore,” said the insider, who described him as appearing emotionally unstable.
One of the working theories is suicide by cop. Little is known about the dead man so far. The SIU had not yet released his name.
Who was this mystery man and why did he drive a car from the Bathurst St.-Teston Rd. area four kilometres to the bank with a suicide vest?
“He is Middle Eastern,” confirmed a police source. “I believe he’s originally from Egypt.” One witnessed [sic] said there was no references to any religious or terror allegiences [sic] in the man’s rantings. The only thing political was the name “Trump.”…

You’ve got to love this kind of justification. No terrorism involved? Where did he get 9 bombs and a suicide vest?

The Toronto Star is the most biased, antisemitic, globalist loving, soros supporting hate rag in Canada.

You will have to ask jihadi Justine Trudope and his islamist immigration minister that. A prompt, courteous, truthful answer will be forthcoming. No, really!

It’s their golden ticket now. Just say there was collusion and get the PMO to cough up the cash. What can we expect when we reward their whining and their demands? When we reward BAD BEHAVIOUR. That’s what we’ll get more of. Disgusting is the word, yes.

Plus, he’s from Egypt. Trudeau and Obama must be very proud of their legacy.

And no surprise- of course, he is “emotionally unstable”; more evidence of the global outbreak of mental illness among the world’s muslim population.

Give him some legendary Egyptian pharmaceuticals, fake pharmaceuticals seem to be the main industry there. If he wants real captagon he’s on the wrong continent. But even there most of it comes from Egypt and isn’t the real stuff.

That does make sense. Time will tell.

That just happened yesterday. The way I heard it reported, it was just another ordinary bank robbery. The media certainly covers for the “special” people.
DustDevl340 says
Yes, indeed. Not a mention of this on the news here.
PaulM says
It never even made it on the news on the East Coast of Canada. Go figure eh. Trudeau and his ass wipe goons make me sick. Canada is so so screwed.
Linda says
It sure looks like we are screwed. I didn’t see any mention of it today in the list of news items I checked and Trudeau was in Toronto on talk shows going on about Christmas, (Well, let me qualify that. He was talking more about Star Wars than about Christmas). Then he went to cut a ribbon at the subway development. No mention of his favourite people at either place. No mention of the 9 bombs or the gun or hostages. As Trudeau says, “Sunny ways, my friends. Sunny ways.” We’re being led down the garden path and if we say anything about it, we’ll soon be jailed for Islamophobia. Sunny ways…I don’t think so.

Trudeau and his sunni ways is more acturate.
Yep we are screwed.

I hope he had a license to own that hand gun. In Canada guns are strictly controlled. To legally own a hand gun a person must take two different gun safety classes and apply for a license. Clearly someone with a drug addiction and or mental health problems should not be carrying a gun.
Ellie says
This is typical Islam terror stuff. They use children and others that they find useless to strap bombs onto and then send them out to blow up people. What they say is not as important as blowing up people and things as well as creating fear.

Rob says
As usual, it will be attributed to “mental illness”. Which of course increases the politically inconvenient correlation of Islam and mental illness, threats, violence, hatred of the US, …
Walter Sieruk says
Those jihadist suicide/homicide Islamic terror attackers are committed by Muslims who are also mujaheddin, who are also under the spell of Islamic deception, so much so, that those jihadists actually view their murderous attacks as “martyrdom operations.” This is because they firmly believe that they will have a paradise, for themselves, after they die in a jihad attack. This is how strong the influence of the deceptive power of the false religion of Islam can be. This delusional madness which results in death and destruction is, somewhat, explained in the following quotation by a Christian author.
“Muslims killed while waging jihad are often honored as martyrs. Also, the prophet Muhammad said that they would be guaranteed passage to paradise. Narrated Abu Huraira in Hadith 9:549:
‘Allah’s Apostle said “Allah guarantees to the person who carries out jihad or His Cause and nothing compelled him to go out but the jihad for His Cause and belief in His Words, that he will either admit him into paradise or return him with the reward or the bounty he has earned to his residence from where he came out.’ [1]
As for the first part of this above quote about a “guarantee’’ of entering into a paradise for a Muslim who dies fighting in the jihad is a falsehood and false doctrine of a “guarantee “. Which a both tragic and sad for many reasons as well as bogus way of God. For Jesus taught not the above but clearly did teach that He is the genuine and only way to heaven. For example, John 14:6 gives the very words of Jesus Which are “I am the way ,the truth, and the life: no one comes to the Father ,but by Me.”

Trudeau could have him over for tea.

Bob Fry says
Just another isolated incident of a deranged man that was from the middle east (Egypt ), this has nothing to do with a Ideology or a Radical Islamic Muslim, all Muslims are peace loving. Now that I have given the Government’s position on this incident and were all to nod our heads in agreement and go back to our TV Reality Show’s. Very interesting Thought, I haven’t seen any White Caucasians Christians, strapping on 9 sticks of explosive and entering a bank and then asking to speak to the President of the U.S.A.. this is unique to only Middle East countries, I believe they call it Jihad against Western countries citizen’s. Let’s get serious now this is a terrorist attack that reeks of a Radical Islamic attack.. If it walk’s like a terrorist, looks like a terrorist, wears a vest with explosives, and carry’s a hand gun like a terrorist, then you know what “It is a Terrorist” Wake up Canadians to this invasion.
M says
How long till people don’t feel safe going out to go to the bank or the store anymore and have to realise why? Canada used to be a peaceful relaxing place. But wherever Muslims live there’s ugliness hate and problems. I was raised liberal so I know that sounds harsh. But as an adult I can look at facts and see quite clearly there’s no joy and fun anywhere Islamic. If there is it is in spite of the constantly agitatng hate preaching zealots. Why is there always that sick element among them and why do the rest of them just go along? Because with the radical terrorists in their midst they gain power and slowly take over. They know that the extreme elements scare people and bully the government and it lets them get housing, food stamps, welfare more easily. They dont want to disavow the element that keeps them a specially protected group. Islam is a death cult and its run like some kind of mafia. There is no working with them bcs they never play fair and their goal is takeover and destruction not coexistence. Without the jihadis, the rest of them wouldn’t need all the coddling and protection from “backlash”, would they?

If this is what it is, then the open “jihad” is underway, and God forbid, billionaire Barry Sherman and wife, who were found murdered today, were not victims of a “Fatah”, his open support for channels from York University led right to Hamas and other terrorist groups.
If this is the case, and these two incidents are works of the MIC- Muslim International Cartel, then yes, we have invited it to the door, and its in the neighborhood. I doubt these two things are related, but, what they do speak to, is a breach in what a united Jewish stance should resemble post Holocaust!
Its not rocket science, the existence of The State of Israel under military protection 24 hours a day 7 days a week, is an indicator, that we are at war, and those connected to Israel who live outside of Israel, should become realistic or just convert and change your names.
There is an age old opposition that has not slumbered in its aggression to the Torah!
Oh yeah, if you doubt for a second that this isn’t about a book, then you are mistaken.
Moral conduct is not limited to a text, but its written in ones cervical cortex, that should reflect a set of precepts and concepts, the 613.
Unless the 613, or reduced to the 10, becomes the Constitution of any democracy, then breaches domestically and internationally will continue and eventually enter into democratic sovereigns.
Such is the case, civil disobedience in law enforcement, the judiciary system and the public are all under attack by that which is unseen, but is played out in the seen.
Qabbalah-which means to reveal the concealed, is a system that can guide any government or society to a moral directive where the highest levels of leadership, can never be bribed nor deviate from human service and compassion, this we have yet to see, but is possible.
And notice how the media chooses to flood every social platform with the negative rather than even a balance of positive, why? because the perpetual energy of repetitive vibrations becomes the reality, as negative images, language, films and human exchange, sinks to the lower act of negative frequencies.
Current positioning is important, one may disagree with the Liberal agenda of inclusion without proving, but, this is what democracy is.
Everyone is basically an immigrant, so the narrative is difficult, but, a strong argument can be raised with the global alert of what was presented on 911, has changed the world.
Is Islam the blame? Is the Koran the blame? should Persian and Arab people of no religious affiliation be blamed for those who take the Koran to heart literally? This is a question that each of us must ask ourselves, but be careful, many non Arabs and non Muslims have caused havoc upon this planet.
“Judge not, lest thy be judged” this is a parsha that speaks to those inclined with a certain wisdom, for wisdom is founded upon 7 pillars in Hebrew, and those seven pillars rest upon the “yesod” foundation.

“Barry Sherman”
That’s interesting, thanks for the heads up. With so much money around, it’s anyone’s guess.
” if you doubt for a second that this isn’t about a book, then you are mistaken.”
It surely is about that. Even the Nazis were out to destroy the transcendental nature of what the Jewish people represented, rather then simply Jews themselves.
“Everyone is basically an immigrant”
We are if we define the word widely enough, of course. With more sensible definitions, clarity results.
“Is Islam the blame? Is the Koran the blame? should Persian and Arab people of no religious affiliation be blamed for those who take the Koran to heart literally? This is a question that each of us must ask ourselves, but be careful, many non Arabs and non Muslims have caused havoc upon this planet.”
Islam is the blame for islamic inspired havoc, no doubt. The koran is the written source, and mohammad is the lived out source. Persians and Arabs have lived so long under the influence of both of those, that it’s hard to divide the two. That’s not to say that it can’t be divided, and many do manage to be loosed from the islamic culture, especially when they are born in the West.
Non Arabs and non muslims are another matter, though on the same spectrum. All evil comes from the same nature. islam however provides much encouragement. Yeshua ha’Mashiach is the only way out. Call on the name of the Lord, who is alone salvation, and you shall be saved. Wouldn’t you agree?
Older Canadian says
No
LeftisruiningCanada says
“No”
No?
PaulM says
Yes, the koran is to blame, yes and yes to your other two questions. The koran is to blame in that any deranged ass wipe that follows and adheres to a piece of literally insane, babbling, drivel that tells people to rape babies and little girls, treat ALL women like shit and mercilessly beat them for no apparent reason, just because you want to and commands the out of hand killing of any and all human beings that disagree with your insane bullshit, needs to be sent back to the septic tank they crawled out of. So ya, islam and muslims are to blame. For those muslims that are not part of the violence, they are complicit in the extreme, in that they are the silent majority who do indeed agree with these barbarous acts but just sit quietly back and condone what is going on and fully agree.
MTMLA says
How about the western politicians (and those who voted for them) who are bringing these throwbacks to our countries and punishing those who dare speak against them and their ideology. Aren’t they even worse? They are sellouts and traitors.

This is not about race, as you seem to pretend, but about ideology–the savage ideology of Islam.
Frank Anderson says
D.M.J. only for those who don’t know, the 613 in your note almost certainly refers to the 613 Mitzvot, (singular Mitzvah) in the first 5 books of the Bible (The Torah or Pentatuch) collected and counted, I believe, by Moshe ben Maimon (Maimonedes) more than 1,000 years ago. Not only did he collect and count them, he proposed a ranking of importance that many regard with authority to this day. I do not believe they were replaced by the 10 Commandments, which may have been counted with them. To the extent that I am in error I will cheerfully accept correction. There is great wisdom and comfort to be found in Judaism.

Johnny Canuck says
Has this been verified?
I ask because either this story has had details added or more likely the Canadian media is whitewashing to story.
There are no stories newer than 2 days ago, and none of them contain any details about the perpetrator or the bomb and there have been no updates to add those details or even his name.
In other words, it sounds like Trudeau and his globalists are now actively censoring any stories that portray muslims in a bad light, even if they’re true.

Does anyone agree with Stefan M.s assessment that the true root cause of this is the welfare state?

Excellent definition!

Its part of it. But I disagree its the root cause. The root cause is the hijrah doctrine to spread islam. Welfare just makes hijrah a whole lot more comfortable and speeds up the process.
