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

Video from Germany: “Southerner” goes on knife rampage, seriously injuring three, cops search for motive

Sep 28, 2018 2:21 pm By Robert Spencer

The tweet below says: “After the #knife attack with several injured people in #Ravensburg, the police arrested a southerner. The man had stormed into Marienplatz without warning and had indiscriminately stabbed passers-by.”

From the looks of this “Southerner,” they don’t mean Alabama.

Danke, Merkel!

As for the motive: the Islamic State issued this call in September 2014:

So O muwahhid, do not let this battle pass you by wherever you may be. You must strike the soldiers, patrons, and troops of the tawaghit. Strike their police, security, and intelligence members, as well as their treacherous agents. Destroy their beds. Embitter their lives for them and busy them with themselves. If you can kill a disbelieving American or European — especially the spiteful and filthy French — or an Australian, or a Canadian, or any other disbeliever from the disbelievers waging war, including the citizens of the countries that entered into a coalition against the Islamic State, then rely upon Allah, and kill him in any manner or way however it may be….If you are not able to find an IED or a bullet, then single out the disbelieving American, Frenchman, or any of their allies. Smash his head with a rock, or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car, or throw him down from a high place, or choke him, or poison him….

“Man injured three people with knife in Ravensburg,” translated from “Mann verletzt in Ravensburg drei Menschen mit Messer,” T-Online, September 28, 2018 (thanks to Searchlight Germany):

A man seriously injured three people with a knife in the center of Ravensburg in the Lake Constance region. One remains in mortal danger. The attacker was caught after the incident on Friday. The injured were taken to a hospital.

The investigators are focused upon a single perpetrator. His motive was initially unknown. “For now, do not assume a terrorist background. There is currently no evidence,” said a police spokesman.

The attack had therefore occurred on the Marienplatz. One of the injured was found about 50 meters away from the other two, according to the police. At first, it was unclear whether he was attacked or possibly injured.

According to the police in Ravensburg all available officials had rushed to the scene. The criminal police initially secured traces in the early evening. Neither age nor origin of the participants were initially known. The attacker should have been a younger man.

    Just a small correction from the German to English translation. “The attacker should have been a younger man.”
    The correct translation is “The attacker was a young man.”

    My guess is that this will be proclaimed another case of “mental illness.” However, after that please then tell me the cause of the mental illness and why it manifested itself through a knife attack on unarmed people. Why would the man choose to do such a violent act rather than, let’s say, trying to walk on water?

      “A southerner” Oh he’s gone south all right….south if the norm and “south of the norm” does not mean mental illness.

    Too bad there weren’t a handful of Alabamians around to take care of the problem.

      Does America realise just how over run they are with Muslims in key places particularly in colleges and universities and government postings. Texas is awash with Mosques and Muslim retreats are plentiful in the countryside where weapons training can be carried out peacefully. Dearborn Michigan is a small city completely run by Muslims with a Muslim majority. Watcha going to do?

    And as always — ” no terrorist background ” — NEVER when a Muslim attacks unarmed people ! But when you speak up against it it is racism by Nazis !

        Very true.

          He should therefore have been described as an “Asian”, like the description of rape-squads in the UK.
          However, this is immaterial to the authorities, whose actual aim is to avoid calling them MOSLEM.

    How do you manage to stay in Germany if you’re a Muslim and your request for asylum has been rejected?

    1. Knifing of infidels is always a good stratagem. Stab one, two, or three of them. If they die, Allah will be proud of you; if they survive, well, you’ll get a reward from Allah too since he is most merciful.

    2. When getting caught, pretend to be mentally ill.

    3. Get a good solicitor.That shouldn’t be a problem at all, since there are lots of lawyers who earn a fortune while they are defending criminal migrants and some pro migration association will certainly provide you with such a man.

    4. When you are in court, don’t tell the judge you were attending a Friday sermon in a mosque when you suddenly felt the urge to kill some infidels because the imam harangued you with all his fine words about peace, tolerance, and love for the Kafir, but tell him that you’re a poor migrant, traumatized and despised by evil German nazis. Play the victim, most cruel and racist Germans prompted you to act like that when you learned that your request had been denied – you were in despair, poor Mo! And don’t worry, the solicitor will put the appropriate words into your mouth.

    5.And hey, whatever the verdict will be, you can stay in Germany – either in a German prison cell where life is still a hundred times more comfortable than in your Muslim shithole of you walk away from the courtroom as a free man – getting paid a therapy for traumatized refugees , and, of Course, the expulsion order will be put on hold.

    So, if you want to stay here, get a knife -they are not expensive, the pocket money you receive from the state, will suffice, but if you’re broke, steal a knife from the kitchen of your lodging.

      Excellent summary of the asylum-seeker playbook.

    You have to admit that this is, in a way, funny. One would think that at least the police in Ravensburg, home to the famous game, toy, and puzzle maker, would be able to piece together the Jihadist motives of the Afghan “southlander.”

    ………………..

    How many of these horrifying cases have we heard about now? How many more will there be?

  11. Heidi Walter says

    By the understanding of Merkel’s followers and the leftists it will be declared as single incident of a mentally ill poor refugee who was frustrated because he didn’t gt a house, a car, and lots of Money as peomised. I fear that the numbers of thousands of single incidents which have happened in Germany as of today will increase rather than cease. Maybe he was just frustrated because they ran out of chocolate pudding, any poor and miserable excuse will do for those idiots. As it was reported this morning 450000 of them went into hiding and the Police would probably give an arm and a leg to find them. We will know where they went and what they up to when the first major terrorst attack happens.

    “Southerner”, Huh? Well, I guess that “Good Ol’ Boy” just ain’t’a “Whistlin’ Dixie”!

    Precisely. How dare those racist police underreport the number of non-muslims who calmly walk through a city square stabbing people who don’t ressemble non-muslims! They are almost as bad as the MSM who continually broadcast a total lack of German citizens not killing others. (insert sarcasm emoji here)
