Now will come the claims that the Islamic State (ISIS) claims everything, even the weather, but that is not true. It does not have a record of claiming credit for attacks in which it had no involvement. The one big sticking point is the Las Vegas massacre, but that has never been adequately explained in any case.
“ISIS claims responsibility for Toronto attack after police say shooting not linked to terrorism,” by Justin Doom, ABC News, July 25, 2018:
Almost three days after two people were shot and killed in Toronto, and after local authorities said their killings had nothing to do with terrorism, ISIS has claimed credit for the attack.
A statement from the group’s Amaq agency, translated from Arabic, reads in part:
“The person who carried out the attack on the city of Toronto in south-east Canada on Sunday evening is one of the soldiers of the Islamic State and he carried out the attack in response to calls for targeting citizens of the coalition countries.”
The 29-year-old suspect, Faisal Hussain, who killed an 18-year-old and a 10-year-old and injured 13 others, also died on Sunday….

Vegas most likely was a gun runnin sting that went bad and the buyers turned it on the FEDs and used it as a distraction to wack the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia who allegedly was in Vegas at that time. They did not achieve their mission. This scenario explains MOST of the lose ends that can/will NOT be talked about.

The craven, dhimmi Western MSM. There’s investigative journalism, right?
Believing a concocted mental illness narrative rather than a claim from a terrorist group whose ideology has been responsible for 33,000+ jihad attacks since 9/11. Not that ISIS was around for all of them…but the ideology comes from the same source.
Oh, I forgot. That’s not the real Islam…..

You know, Logic, I’m Old School. Back in the day, Journalism was all about the 5 Ws; Who, What, When, Where, & Why. Also, whenever possible; How. Above all, though, always report the TRUTH. The WHOLE truth and nothing but. In other words, leave NOTHING out.
Sadly, in this Commie/Socialist/Liberal/Democrat/Progressive Era, all of those sound, fundamental (1st amendment) teachings are irrelevant. Now, with MSM reporting -the only letters I can reflect on are……WTF!?!

Andy, Toronto is an immigrant town. Most are not Canadians and actually hate Canadians. They vote for globalist and socialist parties, because they will provide open borders.

Already happening with our MSM…..from Global News.
Look at the guilt-absolving language used:
The so-called Islamic State; no evidence; no indication of any link to national security; claims are less reliable; not definitive proof.
Of course, no bonafide experts on Islam were quoted. Only those who fit the narrative.

One day, hopefully SOON, we will see the real reason why our western countries are chockablock full of raving lunatics from the fourth and developing worlds who all want to kill us. Then we can hang out to dry the connivers, schemers and subversives who are directly responsible for the greatest turbulence in our world since WW2. My guess is that all countries experiencing unencumbered chaos, murder, bombings and fear on their streets, are an essential part of THE PLAN. While we dummies have our eyes fixed firmly on day to day threats, and have devoted time and money to resolve these matters, the inexorable march of hundreds of thousands continues making their way to our doors. Chaos, as we have never know it is on its way. Already, I read of those threatening civil war. This IS part of the bigger plan, I am pretty sure of it. Once things get out of hand, our globalists, yes, those horrors who thought this whole plan up, will declare martial law everywhere. Overnight we will have totalitarianism replete. As for the useful, marauding and seemingly untouchable Islamists running around on our streets? Their part to play in the New World Order over, they will be the first to experience the raw power of the new state – at the end of a bullit. This is, in my view, the principal reason for not only US “ outrage” at the election of President Trump, but widespread European rage as well. Useful idiots like Justin Trudeau and his like will be tossed aside once the main goal is achieved. President Trump, a proud American, and a patriot, will NOT acquiesce to this globalist plan, and the globalists know it, which explains the worldwide criticism and denigration of a leader and one who does NOT govern THEIR countries.

A blurb under a CBC vid on YouTube:
“Mental health is in the spotlight in the wake of the Toronto shooting, but experts are warning against drawing a direct link between mental illness and violence. They believe doing so can stigmatize others when using a broad brush approach on a matter that’s much more complicated.”
So…let me see if I understand the MSM narrative. 1. Don’t stigmatize Islam. 2. And be very careful not to stigmatize the mentally ill. Everybody’s a victim except the victims.
Um….how about don’t let Islam get away with using the mental health card? Nope. They’re so afraid of becoming the next Charlie Hebdo….and so obfuscation and outright lies rule the day.

The problem is not mental illness–even though Islam’s teachings are wrought with insane precepts.
The problem is bad ideological software downloaded onto the brain’s hard drive–software which includes the promise of violent retribution if outside developers try to debug it.

Tarek Fatah has a great text today in Toronto Sun, showing that the mentally ill are the journalists who don’t see the elephant in the room (Islam/Jihad):
No sooner was it revealed that the Toronto mass murderer was a 29-year-old Muslim of Pakistani descent, ‘consultants’ and ‘experts’ lined up on various TV networks twisting themselves into halal pretzels, trying to avoid the elephant in the room staring at them — a Muslim hate crime.
Within hours CBC News obtained an unsigned letter purportedly from the killer’s family, stating the mass shooter Faisal Hussain had a lifelong struggle with “severe mental health challenges,” including “psychosis and depression.”
Thus the subject on the evening news became one of lack of funding of mental health and gun crime, painting the murderer himself as a victim with not even a hint of anger at the man who had declared war on a Toronto street of partygoers, killing two girls, 18 and 10. Never once did a single participant have the courage to raise the possibility of the killer being inspired by jihadi teachings that portray partying on streets by women as evil and satanic.
The most apt response to the hours of political correctness came from an Australian Islamic cleric, Imam Mohammed Tawhidi who has been to Canada and is familiar with the Islamist networks in the country. He tweeted: “If you think all these Jihadi terrorists kill because they have a mental illness, then perhaps you are the one with a mental illness. It’s not mental illness, it’s their allegiance.”
Also upset at the endless hours of banality on TV was Ensaf Haider, the Canadian wife of Saudi-held prisoner of conscience, Raif Badawi. She tweeted: “Politically correct reporters keep saying murderer Faisal Hussain suffered ‘mental illness’. Which Islamic terrorist was NOT mentally ill? These jihadis hate women and Faisal aimed at and shot the woman. He’s a jihadi, no doubt about it. Shame on CBCNews for covering up the truth.”
Logic&Reason says
Even brave Muslims like Fatah, who face death threats by telling truth, are not believed by the media.
If the Left and their propaganda news outlets are so adamant that Islam is a religion of peace, then perhaps they should be listening to and interviewing the PEACEFUL MUSLIMS! It’s their collective criticism that has any chance of shouting down radical arms such as Wahhabism.
But, no, the peaceful critics are largely ignored.
Shows you where the real power lies.
Bob Carrillo says
Of course!
Linda says
I’m sorry to say, but, whether there’s evidence or no evidence, I believe ISIS over any “Toronto authorities” on who is responsible for the shooting. ISIS doesn’t usually take responsibility for attacks that they didn’t do.

“Tarek Fatah has a great text today in Toronto Sun, showing that the mentally ill are the journalists who don’t see the elephant in the room (Islam/Jihad):”
On jihadwatch, Tarek Fatah is considered at best a taqqiya Muslim and at worst a jihadist.

Basically until you publicly proclaim Islam evil and the prophet a pedophile you are suspect. After that you can stick around a little bit but we’re watching you.
CogitoErgoSum says
Okay, yes, I do admit that I am suspect of anyone who thinks that Islam is not evil or, or that Islam could not possibly be the manifestation of the thoughts of a man who was very sick in the head. If you like Muhammad’s sick way of thinking, I tend to suspect your way of thinking. What do you think? Do you think Muhammad was the perfect man and Islam is the perfect religion not to be questioned?
Lebel says
I don’t think Islam is evil and I don’t think Mohammed was a pedophile.
So I don’t subscribe to presentism or selective moral judgement on history.
CogitoErgoSum says
Shall I take that to mean that you believe Muhammad was the perfect man and Islam is the perfect religion not to be questioned?
FYI says
“I don’t subscribe to selective moral judgement”
Spoken like a true Leftard.Moral relativism is what the Left is so good at.
To “marry” a six year old girl and have sex with her when she’s STILL a child is morally perverse.
Aisha was not a fully grown woman of child-bearing age.No child of that age should ever be subjected to such a thing.just because it is the cultural norm for the moslem males to deflower children does not mean it is EVER acceptable.
Of course it is pedophilia
sahih muslim 3309
Bukhari 58:236 Muhammed had sex with a 9 year old girl:Aisha
By any definition,muhammed was a pedophile.
Your defense of islam and denial of pedophilia is revolting but so typical of the Left.

Didn’t you know, liberals know better? They know even better than the people who do something why those people did what they did, who their friends are, what their beliefs are. In short, liberals know an awful lot.
