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

France: Jihadi’s girlfriend posted Quran verse saying infidels were promised to hell hours before attack

Mar 28, 2018 5:52 pm By Robert Spencer

“The prosecutor said the girlfriend denied involvement in Lakdim’s plans. But Molins said she posted online a Quran verse ‘indicating that infidels were promised to hell’ just a few hours before the attack.”

Not that this has anything to do with…

“Morocco asks why France didn’t flag up supermarket attacker,” Associated Press, March 27, 2018:

SALE, Morocco (AP) — The head of Morocco’s counterterrorism agency said Tuesday that France should have alerted his country about the extremist behavior of the French-Moroccan gunman who carried out a deadly supermarket attack in southern France.

While French authorities had monitored Radouane Lakdim before his rampage Friday and normally share information about radicalized dual nationals, “We were not notified about Lakdim’s radical background,” Abdelhak Khiame, director of Morocco’s Central Bureau of Judicial Investigations, told The Associated Press.

He spoke as French authorities filed preliminary terrorism charges against the attacker’s girlfriend — an 18-year-old convert to Islam who was also on a French watch list for radicalism.

Khiame is not the only one asking what went wrong ahead of Friday’s attack, which killed four people. French media and opposition politicians have questioned how authorities let Lakdim slip through their net, after a string of attacks in recent years involving young men already on police radar.

Khiame called the absence of communication with France, a close Moroccan ally, an apparent “misunderstanding.”…

Since Friday’s attack, Khiame said, his agency has investigated Lakdim’s family members in Morocco but found “no sign of radical beliefs.”

“During all of his family visits and vacation time in Morocco, Lakdim never raised suspicions of local police,” he added.

Khiame said Lakdim’s last visit was in 2012, before the establishment of the Islamic State extremist group, which claimed responsibility for Friday’s attack.

He said the increase in the number of Moroccans becoming IS fighters has raised alarms at his agency. Moroccans make up a large subset of IS foreign fighters — a total of 1,664 people at the agency’s last count. Dual Moroccan-European citizens were notably behind IS attacks on Paris and Brussels in 2015 and 2016.

Khiame said his agency has stepped up monitoring of Moroccans in Europe, and “multiplied its discussions with European countries to identify Moroccan nationals suspected of radical beliefs.”

Earlier Tuesday, French Prime Minister Edouard Philippe told lawmakers that French intelligence services have thwarted 51 attacks since January 2015 — though 11 attacks were carried out.

He called it “a terrible combat, a hand-to-hand struggle, in which we will have successes — we had some — and in which we might have failures.”

Counterterrorism prosecutor Francois Molins said Lakdim had been listed on a police register for radicalized people since 2014 and was under intelligence monitoring in the days leading up to the attack. But the prosecutor said the surveillance didn’t detect any warning signs that he was going to commit a violent action or any intention to go to Iraq or Syria, Molins said.

Lakdim’s girlfriend was also on police radar. Investigating judges on Tuesday filed preliminary charges of criminal terrorist association against the woman, identified only as Marine P., according to a judicial official.

The prosecutor said the girlfriend denied involvement in Lakdim’s plans. But Molins said she posted online a Quran verse “indicating that infidels were promised to hell” just a few hours before the attack…

    IF WE ASKED A RANDOM SELECTION OF MUSLIMS IN THE U.S. —

    In friendly conversations at shopping malls, or college campuses whether they know of how constantly European nations encounter such savage violence thrown into their daily lives —

    THE HONEST ANSWER WOULD BE ABOUT 95% COMPLETE CLUELESS IGNORANCE.

    Our domestic MSM internet “reporters” and traditional print newspapers ALMOST NEVER COVER SUCH EVENTS — as if the rest of our planet is actually located in a galaxy billions of miles distant.

      Oh, I doubt it. I think they are planning just the same here in the US when there numbers are great enough.

    France has more than 5 million Muslims of whom at least 600,000 SUPPORT JIHAD-TERRORISM and of whom at least 6,000 are ready to conduct jihad.

    This means there are about 16 DIFFERENT jihadis for EVERY DAY OF THE YEAR … a sufficient supply to ensure ONE JIHAD ATTACK can take place somewhere in France every day of the year from now on.

    Muslims are aware that they have a duty to start a jihad NO LESS THAN TWICE a year.

    It is likely that a Muslim somewhere in France will BE MOTIVATED to start a jihad EVERY DAY. This tempo will increase as the Muslim population of France grows unless the FRENCH GOVERNMENT DEPROGRAMS MUSLIMS right out of Islam.

    ABSOLUTE DEPROGRAMMING is the only answer to Islamic terrorism.

      There I but one answer for all the radical Muslims worldwide. If there are any bad marks against them on police records,
      Round them up and then mass deportation. It might require new laws to do so but what is a new law up against even one terrorist caused death….Oh I see a problem…..no politician would vote for this.
      So the world will continue with a high number of people who want to kill you…….Why? Because you don’t believe as they do. Now isn’t that enough to require they be deported?

    THIS IS A NEW POST AT PAMELA GELLER’S BLOG — About the UK Westminster Bridge vehicular jihad: https://gellerreport.com/2018/03/westminster-jihad-manifesto-quran.html/

    WILL IT BE REPORTED BY MAIN-STREAM MEDIA SOURCES ??? Of course not. To do so would expose what Leftist-Globalist-Socialist-Antifa haters worry about at 3 AM when they wake up and cannot get back to sleep:

    ISLAM EXPOSED AS A PATHOLOGICAL DEATH WORSHIPPING IDEOLOGY.

    Muhammad is the “Perfect Example” to every Muslim. All of his conduct (sourced from & verified in Hadith, should be a guide to FULLY OBEDIENT, COMPLETELY DEVOTED members of Allah’s fan club.

    If Westernized Muslims who are NOT on that path (to jihad) somehow fortunately visit Robert’s Jihad Watch blog, please watch this video by counter-jihadist Dr. David Wood: “Three Questions For Moderate Muslims”.

    Type those words into Google’s search box. Runs about 8 minutes, seriously intense, asking the essential query for ALL MUSLIMS PLEADING “We are not doing anything bad. Why pick on us — just innocent victims of Islamophpbia ???”

    No doubt, this imbecile, didn’t ponder Muhammad’s observation that a majority of those going into the hellfire were women.

    Since more women than men were going in, and all infidels were going in, then a good share must have been Muslim women.

    Burn baby, burn.

    Posted online a Quran verse ‘indicating that infidels were promised to hell’ just a few hours before the attack has nothing to do with ( the famous I word-hint-five letters)”

    If you search websites few terrorism related sites are still existing. Need to inform Ican. Students and public should be aware of this. Islamic hackers are again active these days.

    They have many Moroccans in Holland as well. I hope their security people are paying attention.
    The girlfriend in this case must be the first ethnic French terror attack accomplice.

      This may be–but there have been other converts to Islam in Europe turned Jihadist–including women.

    the attackers’s girlfriend..a convert to islam.

    That says it all.

    The savage,the ignorant,the naïve,the Godless are easily attracted to the islamic cult with its..
    false god allah,its mass-murdering,polygamous,slave-trading “prophet” muhammed and its commandment-of-God violating “holy” koran that sanctions the most appaling evil.

    I have no sympathy for converts to islam;you reap what you sow.If you lie with dogs then don’t be surprised if you pick up fleas.

    The jails are full of converts to islam who must wonder at some stage;if islam is such a peaceful religion,why then are they now in jail for murder,rape,terror offenses?

      Converts are often more maniacal and fanatical than those born into the faith or cause. Islam is unabashed radicalism and proponent of mass-murder and bigotry. As mentioned, a cult, Islam is not a religion, but a cultist’s wet-dream of Nihilism.

      Well said, keep your seat-belt and crash-helmet on.

    She must have known about this Jihad terror attack–and to have approved.

    I wouldn’t trust Muslims as far as I could throw them. It is only a matter of time before a moderate Muslim becomes more devout. When that happens watch out. If only we could ban Muslims from the United States. Europe is paying the price for their folly.
