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

Hugh Fitzgerald: Jawed Santani, Thin-Skinned In Amsterdam

Sep 6, 2018 2:50 pm By Hugh Fitzgerald

The latest act of Islamic terrorism took place in the Central Railroad Station in the heart of Amsterdam. There, one Jawed Santani, a 19-year-old  Afghan, currently a resident of Germany, stabbed, in an attempt to murder, two tourists. They happened to be Americans, but he was not out to kill Americans — any Infidels would do. What he was intent on doing was expressing his fury at the Netherlands, for what he regarded as a series of insults to Muhammad, the Qur’an, and Islam, coming from people in the Netherlands.

The Netherlands, after all, is where the movie Submission, about the mistreatment of women in Islam, was produced. One of those involved in making the movie was Theo van Gogh, who was later stabbed to death by a Muslim fanatic for his role in producing that movie. The Netherlands  is where the celebrated apostate from, and enemy of, Islam, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, got her start. It is where Pim Fortuyn, one of the earliest and most eloquent of European political figures to speak about the demographic threat from Muslims to the survival of the West, first delivered his warnings — and was murdered by a weak-minded animal-rights activist for “picking on helpless Muslims.”

The Netherlands is also the home of the famously anti-Islam Dutch politician, Geert Wilders, who had recently announced his plan to conduct, this coming November, inside the Dutch Parliament building, a Muhammad cartoon drawing contest. That aroused fury in many Muslim countries, but especially in Pakistan, where the whole country seemed to be up in arms, and threats to attack Dutch people and Dutch interests were made by well-known politicians. The Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP), a conservative Islamic party, even  threatened to blockade Islamabad, the capital of the country, unless the Pakistani government severed diplomatic relations with the Netherlands. It did not come to that, for Wilders announced on August 30 that, not wanting to endanger others, he had decided to cancel the contest.

But the announcement on a Thursday of the cartoon cancellation was not enough to stop the 19-year-old Afghan on the next day, a Friday, from stabbing two foreign tourists — clearly, non-Muslims — in the Amsterdam Central Rail Station. For Jawed Santani was not getting revenge only for Wilders’ latest plan, but rather, for a whole host of insults, as he described them, to Islam and Muhammad, originating in the Netherlands over the last few years. It was not even necessary for him to try to kill Dutch people. Any Infidel tourists on Dutch soil would do, to get back at the Netherlands and, not incidentally, make it a more dangerous and less attractive place for tourists. How convenient if, while you kill incidental Infidels, you are also Inflicting economic damage on the country you hate.

Hostile Takeover, Thilo Sarrazin’s second book on the dangers of Islam and the Muslim invasion of Europe, has just appeared in Germany. Many of those who wrote hostile reviews have pointed out, as one example of Sarrazin’s supposedly preposterous charges, his claim that Muslims are “thin-skinned” and react very badly to criticism. For these hostile reviewers, this was an absurd, islamophobic notion.

There is no need for Sarrazin to respond. He need only introduce into evidence the mental picture we can all visualize, of that 19-year-old Afghan, Jawed Santani, who traveled from Germany to the Netherlands, and in the Amsterdam rail station chose two tourists to attack at random. You can now see him, in your mind’s eye, standing satisfiedly over two bleeding bodies while clutching a knife that is also dripping blood. It’s the attack he felt compelled to carry out on Dutch soil because of what he said were repeated insults, from a handful of Dutch, against “the Prophet Muhammad, the Koran, Islam, and Allah.”

I call the perpetrator of that bloody denouement thin-skinned. What would you call him?

    I wonder what kind of Sentence would be handed out to Any Muslim, for trying to kill Americans in the Netherlands?
    Jawed was not afraid to kill Americans & he darn-well searched for Americans, too.
    Muslims are accepted as Thin-Skinned, Dried-Up Runts, wherever
    The UN & The EU send em.
    Do the Dutch Authorities allow Muslims to have several Chances to kill the “Infidel”, before any real Punishment is administered?

    Hey Holland, this guy gets lodged at your local Dawa Hilton, right? Now, how about the imams congregations and nonprofits and propagandists who filled him with hate & homicidal how-tos and then unleashed him on you? And how about Germany, who negligently admitted him to your proximity and probably subsidized him up to the day of the crime? Did he buy his weapon with German welfare money? These things don’t happen in a vacuum. Get serious about protecting your citizens and guests!

      Agreed.

      However nothing will happen until the Dutch arm themselves and start fighting the Jihadis in their homeland.

    His real name should be instead of Jawed Santani into JAW SATAN !

    Greetings:

    Shouldn’t that be “allegedly 19-year old Afghan” ???

    I seem to recall some administrative difficulty in determining the ages of alleged “migrants”.

      Yes.

      I bet he’s actually 19-going-on-30.

      Might be fun to get a forensic dentist and a forensic doctor to have a good long look at his teeth and do some x-rays of his bones and a general physical assessment.

      A good interrogator might also be able to trip him up.

      For that matter: how do we *know* he’s from Afghanistan? What if he’s from Northwest Pakistan?

      Muslims lie, lie, lie, lie, lie. They tell a whole sh*t-load of lies. All the time.

    “I call the perpetrator of that bloody denouement thin-skinned. What would you call him?”

    I think there is a good chance we should reckon with the possibility we must call him a victim of the poison which is called Islam. see: http://redbee.website/m-eng/

      I think the killer is a Muslim on the wrong (Muslim) path. A path which has taught him supremacism, intolerance, violence, insanity and justification for all of this madness.

      This grossly inferior and murderous ideology needs to be mocked out of existence.

    …………………

    Muslims are offended by the very existence of Infidels–all the more so if they are living free of submission to Islam.

    “What would you call him?”

    A “JAHESH”

    An insulting,offensive,Lebanese Cultural term for ‘a stupid jack ass,an imbedile’.

    Perhaps he was thinking he was the islamic Afghani martial arts equivalent of Bruce Lee.

    Jawed Al Jahesh ..or Al Boruss mohammed Al Lee….. or something.

    Apparently isis don’t like the term Daesh to describe themselves..or Jahesh..which sounds like it …….so I won’t mention that fact then…I won’t mention those words
    DA-ESH and JAH-ESH because they are so easily confused and can sound alike..

      Please,always allow for spelig mistooks and punct’uation errors,the Spielcheckers don’t always work…….but sometimes,it may lead to a new word..

      imdedile:a conflation of a jackass,an islamic fanatic with a pederastic proclivity.

      Like muhammed,the “prophet” of islam.

      he was an imbedile.

    My father once told me years ago that for a very devout Muslim, a pint of blood is a day’s meal. I didn’t believe him at the time, but now, years later, I do.

    “Thin-skinned’? You bet. But like a thin-skinned two year old who can’t handle the least perceived slight or criticism without throwing a temper tantrum. He probably saw violent killing his whole life. It may very well be the only way he knows of expressing his displeasure – just like the two year old. And then when his religious leaders confirm its appropriateness all self-restraint vanishes.
    I’m not defending him in any way whatsoever. This is a sad story from every angle. Just another wasted life trying to cause destruction on the way out.
    By blocking all discussion of islam the imams (AND our glorious leaders) block people like this from ever moving past that mind set and moving on to age three and beyond.
    I just hope is victims fully recover.

    Pim Fortuyn ”was murdered by a weak-minded animal-rights activist for picking on helpless Muslims”, you say. Well, as much as I would also make a strong comparison between animals and muslims myself, the fact is muslims continue to use dark-age practices of killing animals whereas we in the enlightened world have made the slaughter of raised animals to be as instantaneous and as painless as possible. Are all there animal rights people so ignorant to think muslims don’t want animals to feel the same pain they want us kuffir to suffer? Quran (4:56) “Indeed, those who disbelieve Our verses We will drive them into a Fire. Every time their skins are roasted We will replace them with other skins so they may taste the punishment.”
