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

Trinidad: After Muslims arrested for plotting jihad massacre, Muslim leader complains of “vendetta” against Muslims

Feb 10, 2018 9:36 am By Robert Spencer

In reality, it is clearly Muslims who have a vendetta against Infidels, but Umar Abdullah’s reaction to these arrests is exactly like the reaction of Hamas-linked CAIR and other Muslim groups to counterterror actions in the U.S.: they complain of disproportionate attention being paid to the Muslim community, complaining that the whole operation was motivated by “Islamophobia” more than by a desire to stop jihad massacres. By playing the victim in this way, Muslim groups have succeeded in getting effective counterterror programs shut down in New York City and elsewhere.

You’ll notice that in all his whining, Umar Abdullah never addresses the prospect of jihad terror plotting among Muslims in Trinidad and Tobago. Neither does Hamas-linked CAIR in similar situations. It’s all about some “Islamophobic” campaign to “further oppress and target Muslims of this country.” That could be Ibrahim Hooper of Hamas-linked CAIR talking, not Umar Abdullah.

One would think that law enforcement and intelligence operatives would begin to recognize this as a tactic that enables jihad terror by intimidating officials into being afraid to counter it with programs that Muslims will denounce. But they never seem to catch on.

“Muslim group denounces detention following police fear of terrorist activities,” Nation News, February 9, 2018:

PORT OF SPAIN – The Islamic Front says it is “strongly condemning the flagrant and wanton disregard of the state and by extension the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service (TTPS)” following the detention of several people on Thursday whom the authorities said were planning to disrupt the annual Carnival celebrations that ends here this early next week.

In a statement, the Islamic Front said that the authorities were continuing to “further oppress and target Muslims of this country” specifically those who “have contributed significantly to the population of Islam, the society as a whole and aides in mass charity efforts in this country”.

Police Information Officer Michael Jackman told a news conference Thursday that the detained people, whom he did not identify, were being questioned and that the information received is going through intelligence gathering.

“The Trinidad and Tobago Police Service (TTPS) revealed it was a plan to disrupt the Carnival actives [sic], intelligence agencies were active and vigilant and the discovery was made,” he said….

While the police would not divulge the identity of the men, media reports here have linked them to a mosque in the El Socorro, San Juan area, along the east-west corridor.

The Canadian, United States and British governments have issued statements describing the events as a possible terrorist threat and warning their nationals to be careful over the Carnival celebrations that end with the traditional street jump up on Tuesday next week….

But the Islamic Front said that it regarded the searches of the mosques “as juvenile, baseless, and a clear indication of the vendetta and dislike of the state towards Muslims in this country, not to mention the disrespect and abuse meted out to a number of Muslim men from various parts of the country”.

Islamic Front leader Umar Abdullah said “this cowardly and dastardly actions by the state specifically the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service must not be forgotten by Muslim community”.

“It is very sad that the police acted on conjecture yesterday, saying they had credible information…those individuals are still detained and they have been taken to a number of different police stations. I don’t know what’s the sense in that, but they do create difficult situations for the families as they try to locate them, trying to get lawyers to go to their aid and so on.

“What they did yesterday was unconstitutional,” he said, warning that the country was sliding into a dictatorship….

    Unfortunately, there are people in the left and in liberal politics that don’t seem to understand and can’t get their heads around the fact that we are being targeted by Muslims on every front. In this case, ignorance is not bliss. Islam is not a tolerant religion, not in the least. Wherever Muslims are in power, everyone else suffers, irrespective of ethnicity or belief. Even Muslims of other sects pay the price. If we do nothing, we will leave a legacy of pain and suffering for our children and our grandchildren.

      Steve…..
      What you are saying is true
      However you you over look one VERY important aspect

      Islam is a military doctrine of control, conquest and death
      Disguised as a “religion” for those foolish enough to believe so

      Islam is a military cult
      Who’s supreme commander in charge is Allah

      Mosques are training centers for soldiers not “worshipers”

      They are not “migrants” “immigrants” nor “dreamers” they are INVADERS

      They are radical soldiers dressed in civilian attire , as they infiltrate and infect
      The minds, culture, government, schools of every aspect of the “non Islamic” world

      No different than cancerous cells into a healthy body

      Capiche?

      What is even more important for you to know
      Is to ask your self what are you doing to stop it?

          Word Origin and History for capeesh. 1940s slang, from Italian capisci? “do you understand?” from capire “to understand,” from Latin capere “seize, grasp, take” (see capable). Also spelled coppish, kabish, capeesh,capiche,caspisci

        As long as Islamic terrorists are identified as not part of Islam the core motivation is being ignored. Islam is a religion and it teaches its adherents to hate and kill Infidels .There is nothing inherently good about any religion and Islam is the worst of the worse.

    On the ground, a moderate Muslim is a joy to know and be around, but their so-called leaders are full of hate and hipocracy, and cannot be trusted to tell the truth about anything. According to their Koran it is fine to lie, cheat and steal from the unbelievers. .Watch them carefully and constantly,

    I only know this because I have lived among them for 30 years in the Caribbean.

    • Steve says

      Feb 10, 2018 at 12:56 pm

      True with the caveat stipulated by Indiana Tom. When you look at practically every Muslim country, people of other beliefs do not fare well. Even other Muslim sects face persecution. It is not a tolerant belief and I do not want it here. Will not vote for any party which wants to welcome Muslims, not because I am prejudiced but I do want to live and I want my children and grandchildren to be safe.

        Absolutely true, G. I have a Bangladeshi restaurant several doors away from me. I’d encounter certain staff members due to a shared car park, within the block. The usual B.S was espoused at first – the condemnation of terrorism etc. Within less than 6 months, it all came out over a fortnight or so. 1) the Holocaust never happened 2) how they loathed Shias, gays etc 3) how they love Zakir Naik (a hate preacher) 4) it was the duty of Muslims to terrorise non Muslims into converting (verbatim) 5) if a woman was raped when out alone at night, it would be her fault.

        Disgusting.

          Feb 11, 2018 at 6:58 am

          I agree. A certain Croydon public sector has two Muslim employees of Muslim Trinidadian heritage. They wear neither beards nor hijabs . However they are stealthily pushing the Islamist agenda even in the office.. they align them selves with others who bear Muslims names and they move about in groups. The female has a senior position in finance and recently she has appointed at least five young Muslim men to her team. They came with designer stubble. Within the month they are wearing full blown Islamic beards.

      What about their attitude to the Carnival revellers parading in the streets where their settlements are located. Did I not hear that the streets near their settlements have now become no-go areas for people celebrating Carnival since the revellers have been assaulted and pelted with stones and other sharp objects in the past?

      The same has happened in India where the Hindus cannot parade in the streets doing their singing and dancing on festival occasions . The Muslims come out of their houses and especially their mosques and begin throwing g stones, boulders and even shooting at the Hindu worshipers.

      In actual fact recently in middle India a young Hindu was shot and killed in the street . The shots came from a civilian house where Muslims lived. The deceased young man was a social worker amongst the poor Hindu community.

    Muhammadans have such delicate sensibilities. Except when it comes to the rape, murder, and mistreatment of non-Muhammadans, which are all sanctified by the morally bankrupt “prophet” himself and his psychotic projection Allah. How they maintain the “religion of peace” fiction and their vicious religious beliefs in their heads at the same time without their skulls splitting open due to cognitive dissonance is a truly remarkable adaptation.

      Yes , it has turned in a RABAT ( a term used by the fearless Pamela Geller when discussing another issue of the same genre). Muslim men and their families have been going over from Trinidad to Venezuela in order to proselytise . The Venezuelan state had incarcerated some of them for contravening immigration laws. The Muslims in T and T were doing their usual war dance and bleating about being oppressed even then.

    Hey, the Muslims need the freedom and room to exercise their religious rights. Hey, if you stop them from waging violent jihad then you really are oppressing the little dears.

    Umar Abdullah believes the dirty KUFAAR have no right stopping his JIHAD!!

    How evil can the dirty kufaar be when they watch Muslims who are plotting to commit JIHAD SUICIDE ATTACKS during the Trinidad Carnival ???

    Those dirty kafirs don’t realize that JIHAD SUICIDE ATTACKS are good for the KUFAAR, since it PUTS THEM IN AWE of Islam and helps them to submit to Islamic rule under DISCRIMINATORY Sharia law.

    “Islamic Front said that the authorities were continuing to “further oppress and target Muslims of this country””

    Such oppression when they can’t kill the unbelievers

    Feb 10, 2018 at 10:32 pm

    Umar Abdullah’s reaction to these arrests is exactly like the reaction of, US democrats, Jessica Pishko in the rolling stoned, the sewer stream US media, and on and on. If we offer up western leftists as an olive branch perhaps he and his would be content, for a while at least. If anyone must die by way of islamic ideology it stands to reason that it should be their western supporters.

    None of the religions are worth anything that is good, in the end. The Fact that Abu has that unpleasant past should be used to judge him until the day of his last breath, at present his followers are directly trading in hard drugs and arms, but their days are numbered because every action of violence will come back to bite, the rest of us do not want to live with this sort of lifestyle. There is nowhere to hide for these deluded thugs.
