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

Belgium: Train station entrance closed after man charges at police with a knife

Jan 23, 2018 4:03 pm By Robert Spencer

A “right-wing extremist”? A man with “mental health issues”? Well, you know, probably, am I right? But there is just the possibility that it’s a jihad attack. 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….

“Belgian train station entrance closed, media cite shooting,” Associated Press, January 23, 2018:

Authorities have closed off the main entrance to a train station in the Belgian city of Ghent. Media in Belgium are reporting that police shot and injured a man who charged them with a knife.

Few details beyond the partial closure of the Ghent St-Pieters railway station were known on Tuesday night. There was no official confirmation of the media reports….

    ………………………

    Isn’t it funny how these attacks have become so much more common since the flood of Muslim migrants into Europe really started?

    Not “funny ha ha”, though…

      I know in “some places” bringing a knife to a gun fight would not bring a mental health issue to the forefront. Surely the police was armed.

    An unknown man with a knife
    In Belgium, causing some strife
    Shot down in great pain
    “He was just late for his train”
    Claims his heavily shrouded young wife.

      > It may be a doggerel, but it is VERY accurate in what it conveys about reflection/mirroring:

      ” An unknown man with a knife
      (–who is that knifeman? –won’t say, won’t identify or profile–)
      In Belgium, causing some strife
      (–oh, just some strife, that’s all, it’ll pass, no worries, only inconvenience–)
      Shot down in great pain
      (–such a shame people had to see this, but soon it’ll be forgotten–)
      “He was just late for his train”
      (–you see, he had a valid excuse, poor man, we understand–)
      Claims his heavily shrouded young wife. ”
      (–his wife is devout, and that’s quite respectable, hope many more are like them–)

      > Precisely what Dhimmi-politicians and Dhimmi-press would announce!

    Relax folks: police say it’s just a 28 year old mentally disturbed Afghan doing normal mentally disturbed things and definitely not terrorism. What a relief.

    I have noticed a connection between the muslim terrorist and the mental health issue that they have , They all Read the same Book ?

    First things first.
    STOP CALLING ISLAM A RELIGION.
    It is not.
    There’s no definition for fascisme nor for nazisme.
    Hitler called it “Ein bewegung”, a movement?
    Meaning nothing.
    Islam is simular.
    The quran is not is religious book.
    Its a law book:
    – commercial law
    – inheritance law
    – tax law
    – marriage law
    – religious command
    – war right
    – political law
    – criminal law
    Mohammed (Hitler’s equivalent) used a ventriloquist doll: his favorite god from the pre-Islamistic Kaaba, namely the moon god Allah, to get the mass behind him.
    He was successful at the machismo arabic killing culture.
    So spread this message so people will be freed from the delusion of Islam being a religion
    Especially encourage everyone to read the Koran.
    In this voluminous book, skip the mumbo jumbo passages.
    THE KORAN IS OUR STRONGEST WEAPON
