Refugees welcome! Anyone who opposes the migrant influx is a racist, bigoted, “Islamophobe”!
“New York Port Authority attack: Bomber found guilty,” BBC, November 6, 2018:
A Bangladeshi immigrant who let off a makeshift pipe bomb close to a busy bus terminal in New York City has been convicted of terrorism charges.
Akayed Ullah, 28, set off the bomb during morning rush hour last December, causing himself serious burns but only lightly injuring five others.
Prosecutors said he told investigators he had done it on behalf of the militant Islamic State group (IS).
It was described in court as a “lone wolf” terrorist attack.
Ullah targeted an underground passageway near the Port Authority bus terminal in Manhattan – the busiest in the world – on 11 December 2017.
His defence team argued that he had only wanted to kill himself in the attack. Ullah denied the charges in January.
“This case is not about a foreign terrorist organisation planting an operative in our midst,” his lawyer, Julia Gatto told jurors.
Her client was “a deeply troubled, isolated young man who wanted to take his own life”.
Prosecutors rejected that claim, reminding the court that he had strapped a bomb to his body designed to harm others and citing propaganda found on his computer showing he was a follower of IS….
A permanent US resident, Akayed Ullah entered the country on an immigrant visa in 2011.
He was charged with six criminal counts, including using a weapon of mass destruction and providing material support to IS….

BC says
If he was troubled why did he not stay in B’ desh among his own umma people? but no he wanted to kill non Muslims so he brought his troubles to USA as a so called ‘refugee’ refugee from what exactly
J D S says
Nearly a year before prosecution in court. Don’t find how long of a sentence he received but tax payers will feed, clothe, shelter and medicate this scumbag…..Dollars that are NEEDED in much better areas than taking care of Muslim Terrorist. Pass laws that terrorist will be executed. I would prefer a military firing squad..Really these Muslim Terrorist are part of an army dedicated on destroying us…So they should be tried by a military tribunal then smartly executed by a military firing squad…Also for non terrorist We need establish automatic death sentences for those convicted of murder but let the military handle Muslim terrorist No life sentences….just more wasted tax dollars.

NYC: Muslim migrant convicted on terror charges for setting off pipe bomb next to busy bus terminal
…………………
More “cultural enrichment”.
I’ve been through the Port Authority Bus Terminal–it’s more crowded than Grand Central Station, which is actually a watchword for crowdedness. I can only image how many victims there would have been if this thing had gone off in the heart of the terminal.
God, I hate Islam.
Ezra Adamson says
Try to save as many of those deluded wretches to Christ. Elsewise they will burn in hell for eternity along with their false pedophile prophet.

Robert Spencer sarcastically says,
“Anyone who opposes the migrant influx is a racist, bigoted, “Islamophobe”!
I guess that I am a racist, bigoted, “Islamophobe – and also in the group of “deplorables”.
Since these words have now become meaningless, let’s embrace them.

The problem is that *actual* racism is deplorable. That’s why apologists for Islamic savagery toss the term around when talking about Anti-Jihadists.

gravenimage,
Agree, it’s a tool used to divert and shut down any reasonable debate.
You are quite correct, actual racism – the real deal – is horrific.
gravenimage says
Agree, James.
rod says
Just think how horrible it would have been if he had a handgun and killed a dozen people, like a real American.
We just have to remember – it’s these “others” who are violent, and WE love peace. Ignore inconvenient facts. This is the TRUTH.

I see that “rod” is sneering at the victims of Jihad again.
Bu t then, that is his only purpose here.
rod says
Five bystanders lightly injured in Manhattan, and twelve dead in California, but rod is “sneering at victims of jihad”, gi, apparently only because he reminds you of the much more serious crime.
I don’t sneer at victims of jihad (is a homemade bomb that misfires jihad, even in your fantasy world?), but I am puzzled at the reasoning. There is another, more ominous pipe bomb story, the significance of which seems also to have escaped Mr Spencer’s notice. Like the fact that the California mass murder is the fourth such incident in two weeks. Why is this dud pipe bomb so important?
Is the gravity of the offence determined by colour and/or religion? Not the number of victims, or whether they live or die?
It astounds me that Mr Spencer and his obviously small band of admirers have the time, (let alone the inclination) to read and discuss these carefully selected items of news which have such little relevance to real people in the real world.
Can you explain, gi?
I expect only a few imaginative insults, in reply, but I thought I should ask.

The appalling rod wrote:

……………………
This pious Muslim intended to slaughter people, as “rod” knows all too well.
And pretending that Jihad terror attacks are some sort of rarity is grotesque–there have been over 34,000 such attacks just since 9/11.
Wellington says
Her client was deeply troubled?
Hell, all of Islam is deeply troubled. And herein lies the root of the problem, a problem which so many, both Muslim and non-Muslim, refuse to address to this day.
gravenimage says
So true.
No wonder all pious Muslims appear mentally ill.
Obbop says
I wonder if Soros or any of the other rich tyrants will ensure the beast has ample funds credited to his prison commissary account to ensure he wants for nothing while serving his sentence?
unbeliever1 says
If he wanted to kill himself, why didn’t he do it at home?
Marina says
Then he wouldn’t be able to kill some infidels and meet his 72 virgins and the satanic Allah
