This plot was foiled, but there will be others. The Islamic aspiration to conquer Rome is longstanding.
“Imam Ahmad reported in his Musnad that Abdullah bin ‘Amr bin Al-‘As (may God be pleased with him) reports, Whilst we were around the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) writing down, he was asked, ‘Which of the two cities is to be opened first, Constantinople or Rome?’ He (the Prophet) answered, ‘The city of Heraclius will be opened first!’” (Imam Ahmad, and Al-Albany)
Sheikh Yousef Al-Qaradawi quoted this hadith a few years ago and added: “This means that Islam will return to Europe as a conqueror and victor, after being expelled from it twice – once from the South, from Andalusia, and a second time from the East, when it knocked several times on the door of Athens.”
And the Saudi Sheikh Muhammad bin Abd Al-Rahman Al-‘Arifi, imam of the mosque of King Fahd Defense Academy, once boasted: “We will control the land of the Vatican; we will control Rome and introduce Islam in it. Yes, the Christians, who carve crosses on the breasts of the Muslims in Kosovo – and before then in Bosnia, and before then in many places in the world – will yet pay us the Jiziya [poll tax paid by non-Muslims under Muslim rule], in humiliation, or they will convert to Islam.”
There are many more such statements here.
“Somali migrant planned to blow up Italy’s largest church during Christmas ‘when the churches are full,'” Voice of Europe, December 17, 2018:
He ‘wanted to attack St. Peter’s at Christmas’ in Rome. Using wiretap recordings, DIGOS special security police in Bari, make arrest of a 20-year-old Somali national on terrorism charges.
The Somali wanted to stage an attack at St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome at Christmas. Mohsin Ibrahim Omar, a.k.a. Anas Khalil, is believed to be linked and in contact with the Islamic State (ISIS) in Somalia.
In a recording obtained by police he allegedly states: “The 25th is Christmas… the churches are full. “Let’s put bombs in all the churches of Italy.
Where is the biggest church? It’s in Rome?,” he said, according to the wiretap, apparently referring to St Peter’s. The FBI are assisting with the investigation….

“We are at war”, said the London 7/7 bomber.
When will the West accept this?

HEY, FRANK !!! How’s the campaign to win hearts and minds of Muslims going?
FRANK, did you study AL WALAA WAL BARAA yet ???
Because if you don’t study AL WALAA WAL BARAA, Frank, YOU WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND ISLAM.
FRANK, get one of your JESUIT ISLAM EXPERTS TO EXPLAIN IT TO YOU … FATHER HENRI BOULAD SJ OF ALEXANDRIA IS A REAL EXPERT ON ISLAM.
FYI says
Alas,I don’t think francis “the listening pope of the listening church” will be.. listening.
francis is simply too busy NOT listening to notice.
Shouting won’t work..HEY FRANKIE!…COO-EY!..DID YOU HEAR THAT islam is Not “opposed to every form of violence”?..HULL-OH?…FRANKIE?…
mortimer says
Muslims GENERALLY KNOW that they have a DUTY to conquer ROME and destroy Christendom and turn it into ISLAMDOM.
But does FRANK know that ???
Why don’t you know that, Frank? No more excuses, Frank.

Perhaps he didn’t get his feet washed. Perhaps he had to get into Italy without his sister marrying him first. Perhaps he couldn’t find work that would allow him to “prey” all day and get paid for it. Perhaps he’s mentally ill and off his meds.
Perhaps it’s just the “wild beast”called islam, from the “dragon,” satan the devil…enemy of mankind…, and he takes his part literally and seriously.

Don’t worry.
They are this Pope’s favorite’s sons…
No Muzzies Here says
Will they give Pope Francis a break? After all, he loves Muslims more than he does Christians. He has gone to bat for Muslims many times, and refuses to condemn them when they murder Christians.
It sure would be odd to see the Vatican taken over by Muslims, and the Pope forced to bow down in submission, but that’s the direction it’s going!
Bill says
If that is what it would take for Jorge Mario Bergoglio to achieve the supremacy of his personal religion (global Communism), he would consent to it. He is indifferent to the slaughter of Christians but Islam because the muslims are useful in ushering in the chaos that makes Communist solutions seem reasonable. He knows exactly what he is doing and plenty of Roman Catholics either agree or are blind to it.
John Kendall says
At some point we have to laugh because what THE WEST is doing is TOO idiotic.
“It sure would be odd to see the Vatican taken over by Muslims, and the Pope forced to bow…”
I think it would b hilarious watching a USEFUL IDIOT get what they always get once their usefulness is no longer needed. Which is, also, what awaits WESTERN traitors, like the 3Ms = May, Macron, Merkel.

I don’t actually have any desire to see Muslim murder and destroy.
Manuel 2 Paleologus says
Thus muslim cries about death of muslims in Kosovo. How about the 270 millions of people islam had murders during 14 centuries? How about the 60 millions of innocent Christians slaughtered during 14 centuries? They do not say anything! They had the right to kill and desecrate as they did in Constantinople , Jerusalem, India, Nortb of Africa, parts of Europe? There is need of a new crusade. Enough with bowing to islam under the scheme of the so called islamophobia. Pope Francis is not a friend of the Catholics, he is the fifths column of the Church. Through him a great division is undertaking now within the Church.
There are good muslims, but islam is the bad and evil one.
katherine says
Correction : he is THE 5th Column of the Caliphate – not the Church.
He is facilitating the suicide of the Vatican but I still wonder what’s in it for him – 72 virgins and 28 boys ?
Lydia Church says
I had a nagging feeling about this.
Christmas Eve at the vatican in Rome, and Times Square at New Year’s Eve.
Very big targets.
Just avoid them this year and in the near future.
Right, even though this plot was foiled, there are always more.

But our ceding more and more of our lands to Islam is not a good thing–nor is our acceding to Shari’ah law, as you council.
Muslims would love it if we abandoned the church and our civilized celebrations out of fear of them.
gravenimage says
Muslim migrant wanted to blow up St. Peter’s and bomb all Italian churches at Christmas when “the churches are full”
……………….
In other words, destroying art and history are not enough for this pious Muslim–he wants to be sure to murder lots of innocent people, as well.
God, I hate Islam.
Carolyne says
So, the FBI, the most corrupt institution in Washington, is assisting. Good kick.
Older Canadian says
Will something like this plan actually have to happen before the people, and the politicans wake up and scream, and actually mean enough is enough, and take immediate action to protect the good and decent of all stripes within their country.
Anna Polin says
Never thought in my lifetime I would come across such stupid dim witted people alleging to be leaders in the countries of Europe. After two world wars in protecting our culture and freedoms these cowards and self interested appeasers allow enemies into our countries and surrender what was strongly fought for. Not with their blood of course, everyone else’s. This parliament would not be here if it was not for those that gave their lives for our freedoms and this is how it is repaid. Welcome the enemy into our country in the hope that appeasement will change them. Not the brightest light on the tree type of strategy.
The young and immature think that they are untouchable and appeasement is the answer, they do not listen to their elders who have witnessed what happens when appeasement is thought the answer. There are leaders in Europe, they stand out, they ban Islam and rightly so, they foresee the dangers, they witness what Islam does, who much evidence is needed? Mrs May drivels on about what is best for our country based on finance and not humanitarian costs. She is allowing an invasion of stealth, she is not fit to lead because she is not a leader. It is happening world wide, please do wake up or we will be left with civil war and England looking like Syria!
