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

Michigan: Muslim migrant who stabbed cop while screaming “Allahu akbar” says he’s innocent, rejects plea deal

Nov 7, 2018 9:57 am By Robert Spencer

There is no conceivable way he is not guilty under American law. He stabbed Lt. Neville in plain sight, in a crowded area. He is, however, not guilty of any offense under Islamic law, which allows for jihad violence against Infidels. His earlier refusal to leave his cell for a hearing is an indication that he doesn’t recognize the authority of the court. That is to be expected of a devout and Sharia-adherent Muslim, who bows only to Allah and accepts only Sharia justice.

“Accused Flint Airport Stabber Turns Down Plea Deal,” WWJ, October 27, 2018:

FLINT (WWJ/AP) – A man charged with terrorism in the stabbing of a Michigan airport police officer says he’s not interested in a plea deal and will go to trial on Nov. 6.

Amor Ftouhi says he’s innocent. He made the remark Thursday during a final pre-trial hearing in federal court in Flint.

A judge had ordered marshals to use a “minimum amount of force” if necessary to bring Ftouhi to court Thursday. But it apparently wasn’t necessary. He had refused to leave his cell to attend a previous hearing.

Ftouhi, a native of Tunisia who lives in Montreal, is charged with committing an act of violence at an airport, interfering with security and committing an act of terrorism transcending national boundaries. He’s accused of stabbing Lt. Jeff Neville while yelling “Allahu Akbar,” the Arabic phrase for “God is great.” Neville survived….

Ftouhi left his baggage in the restroom, then allegedly stabbed Lt. Neville in the neck. As the attack went on, the FBI says Ftouhi continued to exclaim “Allah” and referenced killings in Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan — adding something to the effect of “you are all going to die.” He was taken down by police and arrested at the scene.

After his arrest, Ftouhi allegedly told law enforcement that he was a “soldier of Allah” and subscribed to the ideology of al-Qaeda and Osama bin Laden….

“Jury selection kicks off trial in Michigan airport stabbing,” Associated Press, November 6, 2018:

FLINT (AP) (11/6/2018) – Jury selection is starting in the trial of a man charged with terrorism in the stabbing of a Michigan airport police officer.

Amor Ftouhi is accused of stabbing Lt. Jeff Neville while yelling “Allahu Akbar,” the Arabic phrase for “God is great.” Neville survived the June 2017 attack inside the Flint airport.

The jury process begins Tuesday in federal court in Flint….

    ………………….

    Yep–that’s it. I’m sure he wants to use his trial as a platform for Da’wa and Jihad.

    Is there a death penalty in Michigan? Or, like Nidal Hasan, will this be another POS the generous and hard working American taxpayers have to slave away to keep alive?

      If we want punishment that works, then we must choose punishment that is punishment to the perpetrator, not punishment to us. To us, to be executed would constitute punishment. to a Muslim killer or attacker, execution would be reward. It simply encourages others that this is a sure way to Paradise. To us, a meal of pork would be a treat. To him, its a punishment that would probably break him. Especially if he’s not forced to eat it, while the only alternative available is something bland and meatless (but fully nutritional) and his fellow inmates around him are feasting on roast pork.

      I’ve had two objections when I’ve previously proposed this strategy for countering jihad in prisons. The first is that it is cruel to do this to Muslim inmates. Firstly, I’m not proposing this be done to Muslim inmates (although a separate argument could be made for that, too). I’m proposing that this be done to jihadis.

      Secondly, we’re talking about people who’re Hellbent on killing us and when they leave prison, they’ll pick up exactly where they left off. That they will not it perfectly good, wholesome, well-prepared and well-presented food that everyone else eats is not our problem. These are our prisons and we are not Muslims. If you don’t want to end up eating tasty roast pork, obey our laws. It’s as simple as that.

      Finally, if they are forced to eat pork, then doing so isn’t haram. This is so. But they are not forced. The point, though, is that he’ll spend all his energy in prison fighting against himself and turning into a miserable bastard unable to attract anyone to his poison message. Else he’ll succumb and he’ll have blown it anyway.

      It is important to appreciate that pigs are Muslims’ Achilles’ heal. The taboo against pigs is so deep that even to eat pork under conditions where doing so is halal, their unassailable supremacist arrogance will be broken, for a pig does not become pure just because you have dispensation to eat it. It is still pig and still unclean. By having eaten it, with dispensation or not, you are that little bit closer to being a Christian. No matter who says what after that, you will never feel quite Muslim again.

      They kill us, in response we put pork on the menu that they’re free to take or leave. We’re letting they beat themselves at their own game. Knowing what awaits them in prison, jihadis will do everything to goad law enforcers to kill them, which the latter must do their best to safely avoid. We can then expect jihadi attacks to fall back on suicide bombings, a method that we’ve become good at foiling.

    As a Canadian allow me to apologize for our “cultural diversity” spilling over into Michigan. Every day I hope Canadians will wake up and realize it’s different this time. My Irish ancestors arrived in large numbers causing some disruption here and there but they worked very hard to carve out a life of liberty and happiness. Islamic supremacy manifests almost exactly like pathological narcissism. This naturally leads to marginalization and isolation. Who would want to hire, befriend, or even socialize with someone who believes in their heart that non-muslims are a wast of skin? Coexisting with hostile narcissists requires tools. These tools can be learned by studying malignant or pathological narcissism.

    The DSM-5 indicates that persons with Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) usually display some or all of the following symptoms, typically without the commensurate qualities or accomplishments:[6][9]
    1. Grandiosity with expectations of superior treatment from other people
    2. Fixated on fantasies of power, success, intelligence, attractiveness, etc.
    3. Self-perception of being unique, superior, and associated with high-status people and institutions
    4. Needing continual admiration from others
    5. Sense of entitlement to special treatment and to obedience from others
    6. Exploitative of others to achieve personal gain
    7. Unwilling to empathize with the feelings, wishes, and needs of other people
    8. Intensely envious of others, and the belief that others are equally envious of them
    9. Pompous and arrogant demeanour

    Apparently he was charged with “terrorism” .
    That he attacked the officer is clearly not in doubt but, within what is likely a narrow definition of “terrorism” so the Q is: “Is he guilty of terrorism?”
    Hopefully an American lawyer will weigh in and give some insight into the law on “terrorism”.
