The bomb threat was at a church, so why is The Local’s headline “bomb threat near Bern station”? Probably because the establishment media wants to minimize awareness of the jihadi antipathy toward Christians and Christianity. The Qur’an commands Muslims to make war against Christians and subjugate them under the rule of Sharia (9:29) and says they’re under Allah’s curse (9:30). If that were generally known, and if it were known to what extent Muslim migrants were targeting churches and Christians, general opposition to the mass Muslim migration project might grow, even in post-Christian Europe. Can’t have that.
“Afghan man held after bomb threat near Bern station,” The Local, March 3, 2018:
A young Afghan man was arrested in Bern on Friday following a bomb threat near the city’s train station and the discovery of “suspicious objects” in a nearby church, local police said.
Shortly after 1:30pm Bern police were informed of a bomb alert at the nearby Holy Spirit church, a police statement said.
Officers were sent to the scene and noticed a man behaving strangely.
“Initial information has identified him as an Afghan man,” police spokesman Ramona Mock told AFP.
The young man was arrested and all those inside the church were allowed to leave, but the area remained closed for several hours, police said.
Two suspicious objects found in the man’s possession were rendered harmless, the police statement added. There was no explosion or any injuries or damage….

The reason for the headline mentioning Bern station may be that it is a readily recognisable and heavily populated landmark. The article does identify the church where the bomb was found. I don’t think there are many people in Europe who are unaware of Muslim antipathy toward Christianity.

I’m afraid a lot of people still believe in the fairy tale of muslims being “like us”. And islam being “like” Christianity. And there being a golden rule in islam too. Or a “moderate” version of islam. Or that a muslim population can be integrated into Western society. It can not, it does not, it will not – and it has never happened before.
The only muslims who integrated are former muslims. And those are a minority. And a small one at that.
StellaSaidSo says
There is a percentage of ill-informed people in every population, MFritz, but in my experience of Europe they are fewer in number than they were, say, five years ago. In any case, my main point was to do with the headline of the article, which Robert attributes to media avoidance of the issue of Islamic antipathy toward Christianity, but which is more likely to be due to a sub-editor choosing a headline with maximum reader relevance.
Guy Forester says
I wonder what would happen in Switzerland if one of these practitioners of the religion we dare not name actually tried a shoot out, drive over, or knife attack in public. Think it would be different than in the UK, France, or Spain?
I would really like to hear from someone in Switzerland that has an ear to what the public is really thinking and saying behind closed doors and when the cell phones are turned off and placed in a box.

Switzerland: Muslim migrant arrested for bomb threat in church

I’m still horrified by these cases–but am no longer shocked by them–they are too common.
Just glad this Jihadist was stopped–this time.

So strange that we don’t see all the headlines, in today’s jihad watch, not even on Fox news..I wish Robert Spencer Could have a daily segment on Fox to get more of the jihad watch out to the public…but I suppose that even FOX could not or would not let all his truth get out, because of FEAR. FEAR one of Islam’s tactics, along with its brother..FORCE!
