Terror as curiosity: countless sufferings without the realization of such …
In 1983, Robert Irwin wrote a fantasy novel, The Arabian Nightmare, about a young Englishman who was dragged into a whirlwind of sinister and ridiculous events in Cairo. The Arabian nightmare he learned was like a disease or a curse. It was terrible and obscene, monotonous, but yet fearful. It brought countless sufferings without the realization of such…
The Arabian nightmare has come to the West. It has come invisibly and struck it like an evil curse. It subdued Western people gradually – through arson, sexual violence, “Salafi” vice squads and Muslim parties, under the slogans of tolerance and multiculturalism.
The miserable Eloi did not even understand that they had been turned into cattle being slaughtered in the light of day on their streets. In a desperate attempt to escape from the Arabian Nightmare, the ruling elites used all conceivable methods of escapism.
Method #1: to level terror with other types of violence. In August 2017, the Canadian Globe and Mail recommended that “social networks should treat far-right extremists like Islamic State.” The expert on terrorism for CNN, Paul Cruickshank, called the massacre that happened in Manchester at the concert of Ariana Grande a “right wing false flag plot.” Leanne Wood, the leader of the Welsh Plaid Cymru, claimed that the Barcelona massacre was a deed of “far right” extremists. According to Democratic Senator Claire McCaskill of Missouri, white racists are much more dangerous than Muslim terrorists.
Method #2: to declare that Islamic terror isn’t Islamic at all. We learned that the Islamic State (ISIS) had nothing to do with Islam, and shouting “Allah akbar” during an attack is nothing more than praising the world and its creator. The expert on counterterror for MSNBC, Malcolm Nance, said that the terror attack that took place in New York City on October 31, 2017 was anti-Islamic — “None of that is Islamic, it’s anti-Islamic.” According to Neil Coyle (Labour), “attackers at London Bridge and Borough market …were not Muslims,” and so on.
Method #3 (the most common one) is to declare that fanatics are mere psychopaths. Thus after the terror attack act at Hamburg’s supermarket in August 2017, the terrorist was described by Spiegel as a man with mental issues. The knifeman who killed one person and injured several more people while shouting “Allahu akbar” on May 10, 2016 apparently had psychiatric disorders, and so on.
Method #4: to hide both the ethnic origin of the terrorists and their motives. The New York Times called the terrorist on Westminster Bridge a “knife-wielding assailant,” and wrote about Manchester jihadist Salman Abedi that “no one yet knows what motivated him to commit such a horrific deed.” After the London terror attacks on June 3, 2017, CNN wrote that the “motives of the crime remain unknown.” After the massacre in Nice, Le Monde, BFM-TV and La Croix decided not to publish images of the terrorists, and Europe 1 radio station didn’t even mention their names. According to Fjordman, this is a favorite method of Aftonbladet and other Swedish newspapers.
Method #5: to accuse of Islamophobia anyone who dares to state the name and religion of a terrorist. “Focusing on whether the Parsons Green bomber [21-old Syrian refugee] was a refugee is shamelessly Islamophobic,” the Independent wrote.
Method #6: to blame the terror phenomenon on some social problems. After the Orlando massacre, the Washington Post emphasized that the main problem was the free sale of guns. It is worth noting here that this method is widely used by the Democratic American establishment.
Method #7: terror as a marginal spontaneous and unresolvable phenomenon in principle — something like seasonal flowering or inconveniences caused by pigeons. You wouldn’t kill pigeons only because they poop everywhere or pull out flowers in parks only because someone is allergic to them, right? “Europe has to get used to this,” BBC host Katty Kay said after the suicide bombing at Ariana Grande concert. After the truck attack on Bastille Day, France’s Manuel Valls said that “we should learn to live with terrorism.” French Presidential candidate (and now President) Emmanuel Macron described terrorism as an “imponderable problem” that would be “part of our daily lives for the years to come.” “Americans must prepare for the future where terror becomes routine,” according to the former FBI Assistant Director for Counterintelligence under Barack Obama’s administration, Frank Figliuzzi.
Finally, here is the last method from the arsenal of totalitarian regimes: censorship, fines, prohibitions and a mere withdrawal of posts, as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube do.
However, because the number of terrorist acts is growing so rapidly, all these methods have become untenable. That’s how the new concept appeared: terror as something insignificant, an unpleasant accident like a thunderstorm, a car bumping into a cow, an icicle or a tree falling on a passerby.
On July 4, 2017 in Toulouse, two motorcyclists opened fire on passers-by, having killed one and wounded six people. According to France 3, one of the gunmen was wearing traditional Muslim clothes. The police said that the idea that it was a terror attack was unlikely.
On September 13, 2017, again in Toulouse, a knifeman attacked passersby while shouting “Allah akbar.” The police is still investigating the incident.
September 15, 2017 – several people were injured due to the explosion at the London Underground. The incident is being investigated.
September 26, 2017 – another explosion at the London Underground; five people were injured. The police reported that a mobile phone charger had caught fire.
14 February 2018 – a knifeman wounded five people in Paris. The police denied that the incident could be linked with terror.
26 February 2018 – a powerful explosion in a shop in Leicester murdered five people and destroyed a two-story building. Police reported there was no connection between the incident and a possible terror attack. Maybe it was a local earthquake?
4 March 2018 – a mysterious explosion in the northeast of London. The incident wasn’t linked to terrorism. Not surprising…
6 March 2018 – a Muslim person (the Koran was found in his car) crashed into three cars in the tunnel of Gothenburg and attacked a policeman with a knife. Of course this was not a terrorist act.
8 March 2018 – a knifeman wounded three passersby in Vienna. Near the place of the first attack there was another one – another person got injured. The motives of the two attacks are unknown…
The Daily Mail wrote that machetes had become the main weapon of attacks in England. In the last two months of 2017, 928 attacks occurred: 425 in London, 99 in Manchester, 77 in the West Midlands. On average about 15 machete attacks occur daily — every 90 minutes. What a wonderful British tradition to attack each other with a machete – don’t you think so?
On 5 May 2018, a Muslim person shouting “Allahu akbar” wounded three passersby in The Hague. The reason for the attack was unknown – as you remember, “Allahu akbar” is nothing but a praise to the world and its Creator…
On 20 May 2018, a Muslim migrant seriously wounded two people in Neubrandenburg, Germany. The reasons again were unclear.
On 21 May 2018, men in hoods opened fire with Kalashnikov rifles upon a group of people in Marseilles. Police ruled out terrorism as a motive.
25 May 2018: Unknown people detonated a self-made bomb in a restaurant in Mississauga, Canada, having wounded 15 people. Police reported that the motive of the attack was unknown.
On 29 May 2018 – two female policewomen and a civilian woman were killed in a shooting in Belgian city of Liège – the gunman was shouting “Allah akbar.” The idea that this was a terror attack wasn’t confirmed. ISIS claimed responsibility for massacre. However, according to the Belgian police and media, it was too early to take this claim seriously.
On June 1 2018, in Manchester, a car rammed pedestrians and seriously injured five people. The police reported there was no evidence to suggest that this was terrorism related.
30 May 2018 – a knifeman stabbed two people at a train station in Flensburg, Germany. A police spokesman was not aware of any connection to terrorism.
3 June 2018 – a knifeman rampaged at Berlin Cathedral and was verbally aggressive. “The suspect had no motives for a terror attack.”
18 June 2018 – a stranger opened fire on a crowd of people in Malmo, having injured 5 people. “The incident has no connection to a terror attack.” It looks as if the Swedes have a hobby – to open fire on random people on the streets…
18 June 2018 – shooting at a festival in New Jersey left 22 injured and 1 dead. The police version is that the shooting appeared to be gang-related. Do gangsters shoot random people? Take a look at their photos and the names.
20 June 2018 – another “small explosion” at the Southgate tube station in North London. Only five people were injured (there are neither Hamas militants, nor activists of Black Lives Matter to mourn them). Of course, there was no connection with terror.
I believe these cases are just the tip of the iceberg.
There is no sex in the USSR. No, this is not a joke. This was said during the Leningrad-Boston US-Soviet Space Bridge on July 17, 1986 by the administrator of Leningrad Hotel Lyudmila Ivanova. In the USSR, sex was associated with debauchery and pornography, and there was none of this in the country. In the USSR there was also “no crime, homosexuality, prostitution and drug addiction.”
Today there is no Muslim terror in the West. Bullets accidentally fly out of guns, shops and subway cars explode spontaneously, cars squash pedestrians on their own, machetes and knives fly in the air on the own, cutting, chopping and stubbing passersby. Is it a consequence of the global warming? Quite possible.
Countless sufferings without the realization of such…

The BIG question we need to ask and understand before we can fix the problem is WHY are the Elites doin this and for end reason. It is NOT because THEY are STUPID!
vyx says
The fear of attack leads people to call for the government to protect them.
To protect people, the government will curtail liberties and become oppressive.
The more attacks there are, the more people will call for totalitarianism.
The people will literally ask for, and welcome, a dictator to keep them safe. Instead of simply removing the cause.
And whenever the people get restless… there will be more attacks from Muslims to stir the pot and keep people under the thumb of the government.
Islam is the vehicle that will be used to keep the sheeple safe in a one world government.
ron says
i was saying the same thing to my family a few yrs ago. i can see this coming to fruition day by day.
granddaddy says
Hello Mac-101. To answer your question,
They do it to destabilize the government so they can take over. They figure that if they can make everybody miserable enough and afraid enough, they will then step in as a way to bring things under control. And so we will accept them as our new government, even though they are the ones causing all the problems (which they blame on others). They usually attempt to legitimize themselves in some way: academia, government, religion, etc. And it always comes in the name of some ideology (socialism, communism, fascism, Islam). But it always amounts to the same thing: totalitarian dictatorship, loss of liberty, a life of squalor and ignorance and violence and fear and worse for the vast majority while the elite live in luxury and gluttony. A lot depends on indoctrination and propaganda and threats (terrorism usually). Hitler did it. Lenin did it. Mao. Pol Pot. Castro. etc. There’s so much of it, it almost seems that it’s the way the world wants to go.

Words of wisdom granddaddy.
there’s a pattern to history that you’ve noticed that so many haven’t.
Mac-101 says
Thank You vyx, Cortez, granddaddy. I believe ALL three of you are 100% correct. The only problem NOW is to define who THEY are behind the curtain bringing about the destruction of Western Civilization and squashing the believe in Individual self worth!

There I’d just too much of this after a Muslim Terrorist attack…..
“Buggerville (fictitious) man stabs six on Main street.
Should read: Muslim Terrorist stabs six on Main street in Buggerville
An individual rams pedestrian on bike course 4 killed 10 critically injured.
Should read: A muslim, dressed in Muslim attire and screaming Allhu Ackbar ran over bikers on bike course killing 4 and critically injuring 10.
An explosion of unknown origin kills 15 in Restaurant an Asian looking man seen running away and screaming Allahu Ackbar is being sought.
Should read: 15 we’re killed in an act of terrorism when a bomb exploded in a Restaurant. An individual who appears to be muslim is sought after he was seen running away from the scene scream Allhu Ackbar.
Political correctness is going to be the death of a nation!
Warble Gloaming says
Global warming. Definitely.

Poltergeists ! Woosh. Watch out.
Did you hear about the terrorist who thought he could save on kitchen hardware
expenses by honing a few boomerangs. It came back on him though. Woosh woosh.
WPM says
You forgot the big one the main myth believed by western libtards it is the West fault for its poor treatment of people of “color” who do not follow “western customs “.Anyone different then a white American ,Englishman ,or German cannot be expected to follow our laws. The libtards think these people who move to the West have their angry justify in their hearts and are not smart enough to follow common laws and rules of western society. Moslems if they are white from the Balkans or black from Africa or Asian people are a protected species because of the perceived sins” or our great great grandparents. After all America had slave at one time {Islam still believes in the system of slavery} or the well worn path of the native American ect we should bow down to savages who want to kill us that will bring peace to the savages heart in libtard,s unicorn rainbow world view. None of this has to do with rampaging Jihads in modern cities in the West the red green alliance .The myth you can buy these people away from Jihad with a good health plan,welfare and housing.
eduardo odraude says
Excellent article.
Question about this part:
Isn’t a machete similar or equivalent to a scimitar, the Islamic-style sword?
Darryl Kerney says
The bigger question should be, why haven’t the UK’s strict knife laws ended stabbings like the gun control advocates tell us banning guns will achieve ?
Ibrahim itace muhammed says
Alexander maistrovoy, the nightmare of terrorist attacks is exactly the creation of mithraist christian west headed by evil United States to cause nightmares to muslim world and the evil has been backfiring to them. It has started started with grooming of Alqaeda by evil United States and later destruction of Iraq, Libya and Iraq to cause miseries and instabily couple with that idiot Arab spring uprisings, where more deadly Zionist Isis and other terrorist groups emerged.All such evils are paying back to wicked mithraist christian west headed by apartheid evil United States. As such the wicked mithraist christian west have to taste the nightmares they created for muslim world. Allah says in the Quran “waman yaamal mithqal zarratin Sharran yarah(he who does an atom’s weight of evil will see it) “.

…………………………………..
Ibrahim itace muhammed has said before that Jihad terror was actually created by its Infidel victims.
Of course, this makes no sense–Jihad is not Western or “Zionist”–it is intrinsically Islamic.
Another reason this makes no sense is that Ibrahim itace muhammed *himself* has affirmed that Muslims have the right to rape, rob, and mass slaughter any Infidels who do not submit to Islam. He does not actually oppose Jihad–he endorses it.
He has also gloated over our conquest by savage Muslims–exactly what Jihad is intended to accomplish.

My God, talk about projection! Pious Muslims slaughter other Muslims–which they have been doing for 1400 years–and this means that they have to slaughter Infidels–(something else they have been doing for 1400 years).
And his claim–which he has made before–that the United States is an apartheid state is ludicrous. When I pointed out that we have Whites, Blacks, Asians, and Jewish people living on my block, he said I must be lying–but this is, of course, very common here.

Some of what Ibrahim itace muhammed does *not* consider evil is raping women and small children and mass slaughtering unbelievers. *Ugh*.

This is a nightmare–and will only get worse the more Muslims continue to flood into the West.
Norger says
Brilliant! I particularly like the one about treating Islamic terrorism as essentially an act of nature; Muslims, after all, can’t be expected to control themselves, these things just happen. Zero moral expectations of our Muslim communities, that’s the ticket.
gravenimage says
Yes–I’ve heard 9/11 described as though the towers fell in an earthquake or high wind. Just ludicrous.
Matthieu Baudin says
A fine article Mr Maistrovoy. Looking forward to more from you. A totalitarian mindset does seem to be crystallising within the main institutions of power of the leading law based civil societies.
