Barcelona: Police warn of Muslim plotting jihad massacre on Christmas Day, city on high alert

Dec 25, 2018 8:00 am By Robert Spencer

Christmas under siege in Barcelona. How we are enriched by the presence of Muslim migrants! In any case, even if nothing happens there, this jihadi has succeeded in striking terror in the enemies of Allah (cf. Qur’an 8:60), and that is victory in itself.

“Barcelona terror alert: Moroccan ready to carry out attack, US gives urgent travel warning,” by Natalie Penza, Express, December 24, 2018:

POLICE in Barcelona have been warned a Moroccan man could carry out a terror attack in the city on Christmas Day. Officers have been told the Casablanca-born terrorist may try to commit a spectacular massacre in the Catalan capital using a coach or similar type of vehicle.

The terror warning was highlighted by several Spanish papers today who said they had seen an internal alert sent to regional Mossos d’Esquadra officers. The revelation surfaced after the US state department tweeted: “Spain. Exercise heightened caution around areas of vehicle movement including buses in the Las Ramblas area of Barcelona during Christmas and New Year. Respected Catalan daily El Periodico said it had been told by police sources an internal alert had warned officers a man born in the Moroccan city of Casablanca could try to mow down pedestrians using a coach or similar vehicle.

It said the alert had mentioned Christmas Day as the date for the possible attack and said the regional Mossos d’Esquadra had given it “medium” credibility.

Spanish daily El Pais published the initials of the man police are said to be hunting for – B.L. – and described him as a 30-year-old who had a bus licence.

It said: “The Mossos are carrying out checks on minibuses and coaches in the centre of Barcelona, as well as reinforcing security elsewhere, to try to track down the possible suspect.

A Mossos spokesman admitted this morning the force was considering issuing a statement during the day following the publication of the information.

He said: “The terror alert remains on level four out of a possible level five….

      WCP, they actually want to stop you from WORSHIPING THE HOLY TRINITY and CELEBRATING THE INCARNATE WORD OF GOD … that’s the meaning of Christmas.

      Muslims call that KUFR and they call you a dirty KAFIR.

        Yes, I am well aware of what many muslims think, but I take it as a profound compliment.

        Hope you enjoy this time, I know that you have put much time into researching and explaining the problem.

        Cheers

        They don’t want Infidels to have Christmas trees or gift giving, either…

    The very act of Christians going to church makes a target for JIHAD! Why?

    Because Muslims hate KUFR (wrong-worshipping) and Mohammed told them to stop things that are wrong. Moreover, the PACT OF OMAR is the default position of Islam and Muslims naturally try to stop Christians from performing ceremonies in public.

  3. mortimer says

    Someone better tell Dhimmi Pope Frank that Islam has something called THE PACT OF OMAR which obliges Christians to shield their ceremonies from Muslims so Muslims don’t have to kill them.

    (Have a safe Christmas and if you are a Christian who knows martial arts, please sit near the entrance of the church. You may save lives.)

      So terrorists will attack a church in order to engage in fisticuffs?

      People need to be armed, trained up, and tactically positioned to destroy in detail any armed terrorist.

    Three things immediately come to mind:

    1. “When, on Christmas Day, 1481, Granadan Muslims stormed a Christian fortress in nearby Zahara and slaughtered all present, Ferdinand and Isabella declared war, so that “Christendom might be delivered from this continued threat at the gates,” (Sword and Scimitar). Ferdinand and Isabella had had enough, and wiped the Emirate of Granada off the face of the earth by expelling every single living Muslim from their land, *every single one*. There was no possibility of anyone harbouring that murderous creed after that.

    2. Let’s wait for the cries of “profiling!”

    3. There are two sides to dhimmitude. We tend to focus almost exclusively on the payment of jizya. It is my contention that making the world sign the Global Migration Compact, handing over the keys to the castle, in Morocco was a deliberate act of humiliation, the other side of dhimmitude, given that Morocco’s greatest export to Europe has been *jihadis*. Yes, people, that’s how Morocco earned the honour of the world signing its own death warrant that the host’s citizens play a major role in carrying out.

      Muslims were not wholly expelled from Spain until the beginning of the seventeenth century.. Ferdinand and Isabella showed more tolerance and solicitude toward the defeated Moors than toward the Jews, who presented no threat to Spain, now wholly in Christian hands after the fall of Granada, the last Moorish stronghold.

    Well, that’s helpful. How about releasing the dude’s name and a photo? It would be nice if the public was informed to be on the look out for this want-to-be jihadist before he attacks.

    AFP reported yesterday that the U.S. State Dept had warned of a “Moroccan” who posed a risk of terrorism.
    It also said that the police in Spain had already arrested a “Moroccan” last Friday for being a member of isis.

    Moroccans murdered the young women. These creeps seem to be swarming out of the woodwork just in time to take advantage of the year-end celebrations to terrorize and murder innocent people. As the days pass, moslims are increasing their bold acts of terror.

    But the public can’t know the full identity nor the “religion” of those who are murdering them.

    “Jews say, ‘Ezra is the Son of God,'” and “Christians worship three gods,” say falsely accusing morally filthy Moslems
