It looks as if the Sunni/Shi’ite jihad has come in small measure to our nation’s capital.
“Man with machete, handgun arrested after attack at Iran diplomatic office in DC,” WJLA, April 24, 2018:
WASHINGTON (WJLA) — A man has been arrested in Northwest D.C. after entering the Interests Section of Iran and attacking an employee while shouting in Arabic, according to a witness.
The U.S. Secret Service has confirmed that an individual with a weapon was arrested for assault in the area of 1250 23rd Street NW, a location that is listed as the Iran Interests Section in Northwest D.C.
A witness inside the interests section says a man walked in with a machete and a handgun and asked for a passport. He then attacked a man at the front desk, hitting him with a pistol before running upstairs reportedly shouting in Arabic.
Police were called and the man was arrested. He was taken to the DC Police 2nd District for processing.
Secret Service officers responded to a report of shots fires. After the area was secured, it was determined that no shots had been fired….

I LIVE ABOUT 3 MILES FROM THAT OFFICE.
It will be fascinating to see how my local TV mainstream media stations deal with the HUGE PROBLEM OF ARABIC BEING SPOKEN.
Gosh — will the Sunni – Shia schism actually get mentioned, in any relevant context ? How silly of me to be hopeful !
Wellington says
How you doin’, jihad3tracker? Hope you are doing as well as possible in an ever increasingly mad and stupid world.
In any case, Sunnis and Shiites at odds with each other? Oh the humanity! Nothing new here I’m afraid, eh? And demonstrative ad nauseam yet again of what a burden to all the world Islam is. Well, this goes to demonstrate one more time what I have mentioned several times before here at JW, to wit, there are four givens in life: 1) death; 2) taxes; 3) Muslims harming non-Muslims; 4) Muslims harming other Muslims. 4) is definitely preferable to 3) and both 3) and 4) somewhat overlap with 1).
Islam is so screwed up. There is no longer any excuse for not knowing this. None.
You know, I have to wonder, and assuming Islam is eventually assigned to the trash heap of history (where it surely belongs), if this will not occur first and foremost because it is pummeled into oblivion due to force or due to its being laughed out of virtually all existence. Tough call since mocking evil out of existence comes very close to being the best option to simply crushing it—one that reasonable and informed minds can differ about. Preferably over several pitchers of beer.
Take care, pal. And, oh yeah, the fight against totalitarian ideologies goes on, whether Nazism, Marxism, Islam, whatever. Never ending. But why ever give up since life is a continuous fight against stupidity and bad luck. Yeah, why ever? Besides, there’s beer awaiting somewhere to sooth the soul. Just sayin’.

HELLO AGAIN, SIR !
Yours Truly is perking along, and unless a meteor vectors in my direction, I expect to be around for a while.
There is a restorative beer or four waiting in my Kelvinator when the time comes later to “bend the elbow” — as an elderly neighbor (who has returned to Source) used to put it.
I’ll close with a joke for pals who deserve a real groaner: How do you tell a girl chromosome from a boy chromosome? Pull down their genes.
Wellington says
That joke aside, which someone not suffused with PC/MC can appreciate, I vote for four beers instead of just one, preferably accompanied by a BLT or North Carolina BBQ ribs or other victuals (e.g., salami) that would deeply offend Muslims because offending Muslims is not only a delight it is, I think, a duty, especially when delicious.
Axolotl says
Another act of terror by the extreme right.
Devious new tactic exposed – learning Arabic phrases and shouting them out so that the attack can be blamed on peace-loving muslims.
We urgently need new laws and something to ban as soon as possible.
Z says
Something in Arabic? Was it Allah Akbar by chance?

Most likely, Z.

Indeed! Bringing all their bullshit here!

He’s probably upset because women won’t date him. Nothing to see her folks, move along…..
Wellington says
Ah, reminiscent, quite arguably, of the “Ibn Qutb syndrome,” i.e., a zealous religious nerd who, no matter what he does, just can’t become a “babe magnet” and so he becomes a pathological misanthrope instead.

“…hitting him with a pistol…no shots had been fired…”
Furgem stone-age Arab technical incompetence strikes again. Shoulda gone to a target range and learned to shoot he piece first, Habib, at least made sure you had the right ammunition in it.
KJW says
A more recent article fom WJLA says he was yelling in Farsi and is Iranian. He had a knife and handgun no machete. They have a photo of the police report. The perp attacked a man at the front desk by pistol-whipping him and then for ed him upstairs and locked him in an office. He smashed windows, TVs and computer monitors. He didn’t resist arrest.

Well, this could also be the case. Muslims are violent in general.
Jay says
I don’t care if they are shia, sunni, or whatever kind of moslem they are, they don’t belong in this country. Enforce the McCarran-Walter Act, and exclude all totalitarians including moslems. REPATRIATE THEM ALL.
Sam says
This must be either mentally disturbed person or white supremacist filled with Islamophobia to harm some already discriminated Muslim minority.
Let’s see how close i will come to the mainstream media reports of the incident.

What are we doing with ANY “Iranian diplomatic office” in D.C.?
Our treaties with the UN may mandate allowing Iran UN Missions in the UN area and their choice of personnel to staff it, but allowing them credentials and presence in our Capitol?
gravenimage says
This is only because Obama decided to appease the Iranian Muslims.
