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

Canada: Muslim youth charged in jihad massacre plot to “detonate an explosive” in a “place of public use”

Jan 25, 2019 12:23 pm By Robert Spencer

The father of another Muslim who was arrested is already claiming victim status, charging that the allegations against his son are “fake news.” This might be more credible if it weren’t the line that were always taken, in every last case.

“RCMP charge Kingston, Ont., youth with terror-related offence after security probe,” by Philip Ling and Catharine Tunney, CBC News, January 25, 2019:

The RCMP’s national security team has arrested and charged an Ontario youth with a terrorism-related offence, the police force said Friday after an investigation in Kingston, Ont.

Police have laid two charges against the young person — who’s accused of knowingly facilitating a terrorist activity and counselling another person to “deliver, place, discharge or detonate an explosive or other lethal device … against a place of public use with the intent to cause death or serious bodily injury.”

The identity of the accused has been withheld by police as the person is a minor and therefore protected under the Youth Criminal Justice Act.

The RCMP said it will hold a news conference today starting at 1 p.m. ET to update the public on the investigation.

A second individual, an adult male CBC News has identified as Hussam Eddin Alzahabi, was also arrested Thursday, but has not been charged….

Earlier Friday, the father of Hussam Eddin Alzahabi said his 20-year-old son was arrested in what he described as a terror-related investigation.

“They tell me they search about him about terrorists. I know my son, he didn’t think about that. He like Canada. He like the safety in Canada. How could he think about that?” Amin Alzahabi, who has been in Canada since 2017, told CBC News in an interview from his home Friday morning.

“Not good, not good.”

Friday’s developments come after RCMP arrested two people following raids on two homes in the eastern Ontario city.

The RCMP were supported by both Kingston police and FBI officers.

On Thursday, officers could be seen carrying bags of evidence out of the homes.

By Friday morning, the police presence was contained to just one residence.

“It’s fake news about my son,” Alzahabi said. “I trust my son. I know he cannot do anything against any human, humanity.

“They inspected everything from my house. They didn’t find anything,” he said. “I think this is not good.”

The family, originally from Syria, has been living in Canada since July 2017, Alzahabi said, following time spent in Kuwait from 2008 to 2017.

According to a bulletin posted to the website of a Kingston-area Catholic church detailing the journey of the Alzahabi family, an ecumenical group of churches helped bring them to Canada through the private sponsorship refugee program in 2016-17.

The church group established a series of committees, including a hospitality and orientation committee composed of parishioners, and raised more than $30,000 to help support the family’s transition to life in Canada.

Alzahabi said he and his family came to Canada to be “liberated” and avoid being sent back to Syria — which is still in the throes of a multi-year bloody civil war — by the Kuwaiti government.

“I want to save my family from Assad regime in Syria,” he said, referencing Syrian President Bashar al-Assad​, who’s accused of perpetrating war crimes against his own people.

“I wanted to come to Canada and I [succeeded] in coming to Canada because I trust Canada. I trust this country is for the humanity … freedom,” Alzahabi said….

    This Muslim youth in the jihad -minded scheme in inflect a deadly Islamic terror massacre by “detonating an explosive ” in a place , area, used by the public is ,yet,another example of the malice -filled violent and deadly jihadist agenda for Islam. This reflects the teaching of the “holy book” of Islam, the Quran. As, for example, the Quran teaches in Sura 47:4 “Whenever you encounter the unbelievers strike off their heads ,until you make a great slaughter among them… ” Let’s face it, a bomb can make a greater “slaughter among them ” than a sword can.

    Nevertheless, the apologists for Islam still have the gall to make the false claim that “Islam is a peaceful religion.” What an outlandishly false claim to make , Therefore this blatant falsehood of a statement that about Islam being a “peaceful religion.” is awful enough yet many of the propagandists for Islam even have the outright dishonest lying gall to say the the word “Islam” means “peace.”

    It’s a good idea not to take at face value the claim that the word Islam means “peace.” For example, the ENCARTA WORLD ENGLISH DICTIONARY copyright 1999 defines Islam as “submission” based on the word “aslama” meaning “he surrendered.” Given the definition it’s an odd phenomenon that after about fourteen hundred years starting on September 12, 2001 the meaning changed from “submission” to “peace.” It’s very well known that if the police are questioning someone and he changes his story something is wrong. Nevertheless, when it comes to Islam no one gets suspicious of the change. The jihadists brag that they will win the war against the West by using the Western ignorance and naive gullible mindset on the subject of Islam against us. It seems that they do have some basis in that claim since so many Westerners are beguiled by the Muslim disinformation campaign.

      Good! The cops caught this “One” I say one…but how many others re slipping through the laws fingers?
      The cops could catch one of these bad boys red handed and muslim groups and family would be in the news before the cops got to the police station, saying he was innocent and crying racism and islamaphobia.

    Last night I read through the story about this arrest. I thought to myself that it was probably a Mohammadan that was arrested and I should post a link to the story on this website. But the name had not been released yet. I thought, odds are, I’ll read about it here tomorrow. Sure enough.

    This is not rock science people. It’s a simple case of cause-and-effect: where there are Mohammadans, there is Mohammadan terror.

    ……………….

    In other words, he wanted to be a good Muslim…

    God, I hate Islam.

    All day I’ve been listening to the news about this and not one word about who or what he was. I was thinking that his name must be Mohammed or Abdul or Ali, or some such thing. A Muslim for sure, then I have to read about it here. Not a word in my country. Next they’ll say he was mentally disturbed and must go for counseling. If I stood on a street corner in Vancouver and shouted out, “He is a Muslim!”, I’d probably be arrested and thrown in jail for ten years.

    Within a few hours the older terrorist was released, possibly because he might get offended. The younger will of course be sent for evaluation concerning a mental disorder and also released. Canadians are being forced by the Liberals to start administering our own justice to protect Canada.
