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

New York City man converts to Islam, says “I want to execute. I want to behead,” tries to join jihad terror group

Feb 10, 2019 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

Yet another convert to Islam gets the idea that his new religion commands him to commit treason and mass murder. Despite the fact that this is a frequently occurring phenomenon, authorities have nowhere shown the slightest degree of interest in studying it.

“New York man on way to Pakistan to join LeT arrested at US airport,” Press Trust of India, February 9, 2019:

A 29-year-old New York City man has been arrested while he was about to catch a flight to Pakistan to join the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), in a dangerous sign that the Pakistan-based terror group, which carried out the 26/11 Mumbai terror attack, has expanded its tentacles in the US….

Federal prosecutors on Friday announced that they arrested the Manhattan man, Jesus Wilfredo Encarnacion, on Thursday night at John F Kennedy International Airport as he was about to board an international flight with Pakistan being his final destination.

Prosecutors say Encarnacion went online to try to join the terrorist organisation. Encarnacion allegedly told an unnamed co-conspirator in November that he wanted to hook up with Pakistani terror group which carried out the 2008 Mumbai attacks that killed 166 people.

“I want to execute. I want to behead. Shoot,” Encarnacion told an undercover agent, the complaint alleges.

“Encarnacion allegedly attempted to travel to Pakistan to join a foreign terrorist organisation and conspired with another individual to provide that organisation with material support,” said Assistant Attorney General John Demers.

Encarnacion aka “Jihadistsoldgier”, “Jihadinhear”, “Jihadinheart” and “Lionofthegood,” plotted to travel to Pakistan to join and train with LeT, said US Attorney Geoffrey Berman.

“Encarnacion not only expressed a desire to “execute and behead people,” he scheduled travel and almost boarded a plane so he could go learn how to become a terrorist,” said FBI Assistant Director-in-Charge William Sweeney Jr….

    The Muslims who become deeply involved with Islamic texts are only about 15%. They go the mosque. Curiously, 15% of Muslims worldwide are self-declared JIHAD-TERROR SUPPORTERS. Do you see a pattern?

      What’s the point of saying its only 15% of Muslims worldwide are self-declared jihadis?? Fact is every Muslim is a jihadi and its only a matter of time when he decides to acts upon Mo/allah’s orders. It’s an evil ideology which no human being should follow!!

      It’s also possible he is just another angry liberal.

      That is another thing that Islam and liberals have in common: both are filled with anger, usually directed at the United States of America.

      Most Muslims support Jihad, and almost all of them support the imposition of Shari’ah law–and this is what Jihad is for.

      And how could they not? This is the aim of Islam, ever since the “Prophet”.

    This is what Islam does to normal human beings – converts them to killers and rapists!!

    Why not let the addled murderous wretch go to Pakistan, to cause as much trouble as he can for the Pakistanis, who will deal with him much more ruthlessly than we — given our laws — can. Let him rant and rave over there, killing Shi’a, or Ahmadis, or even Sunnis who have been insufficiently fanatical in their faith. Eventually the Pakistani military will find and eliminate him. Just make sure he never returns to the United States, and put him on Interpol’s list so no other Western country will take him in.

    If he were to be kept in the United States,, he would be tried — at great expense — for having planned to joined terrorists in Pakistan, and serve a short prison term. While in prison he would be conducting Da’wa among this fellow prisoners. And when he got out, he’d once again be a threat. All unnecessary: He deserves Pakistan. Pakistan deserves him.

    • Savvy Kafir says

      Feb 10, 2019 at 12:51 pm

      Agreed. He definitely belongs in Pakistan.

      I believe everyone from Pakistan should be sent back; but this guy more than some.

    • J D S says

      Feb 11, 2019 at 11:42 am

      HUGH has a very interesting thought here.
      The Pakistani military would surely deal with him swiftly if he stepped out of line and the fact that he will cost tax payers dollars and will help tarmac s like others in prison is another reason we should just let him go…but like Hugh said be sure to put him on everyone’s security risk list. None of this will happen though.
      I note that there was another is lam von dry in today’s Jihad Watch…PURE STUPIDITY!

        Pakistan only has a problem with Jihad if it is aimed at Pakistani authorities. Otherwise, not so much…

    New York City man converts to Islam, says “I want to execute. I want to behead,”

    Psychos like this are attracted to islam because the murderous hate within islam is their ultimate justification for murder and terror, at least in their sick minds. Their religion is the moral and religious pill that eases their conscience and emboldens them in their bad acts. If your god wants you to be a hateful bigot and perhaps kill or torture then you can enjoy that evil to the fullest, without legal or moral compunction or reservations. This is why islam is so evil, because their god encourages murder and intolerance with the commands he spoke through his robber prophet, muhammad. Of course rational people know muhammad’s revelation is false, there’s no way the retarded nonsense that allegedly came from muhammad’s mouth could be from an all-wise, all-knowing creator. That would be like thinking a worm could have written Beethoven’s 5th. No, Islam is merely a projection of the evil and self-serving men that created it.

    It’s time we put this muslim scam and the terror it causes to an end. Islam is not a true revelation of god, it’s a retarded and violent projection of muslims’ own selfish and deadly ambitions. All of them? no, I would exclude those who do not partake on any level, but they aren’t true muslims. I’m talking about those who actively participate and give support. They are the dangerous ones, the so-called moderates. They are the ones destroying the world’s peace with their “peaceful” participation and support that inflates islam’s killer-nonsense into godly truth. This creates a monumental bubble of deluded misinformation that gives birth to all manner of violence and hate in any muslim with a hankering to to kill, rape, or torture. That’s why muslims suffer too in all this, they are trapped by a demon of their own making. It’s time we made islam’s retarded nonsense a thing of the past. We must resist islam’s infiltration and subversion of our nation or we’ll end up like Europe, broken beyond repair. And islam should be mocked too, since nothing deserves mockery more than hateful intolerance for ignorant superstition, as if the world hadn’t learned that already.

      This is why Islam is so popular in prisons–it appeals to violent felons, and confirms and sacralizes their sick world view.

    • J D S says

      Feb 11, 2019 at 12:13 pm

      Agostino….Islam is a Satan derivative……if and I say IF muhammad actually existed his revelation was NOT from one of God’s angels but was one of Satan’s …
      It’s just do strange to me that a world that has “arrived” can not see through Islam. God would not ask His believers to do the things Islam is asking its adherents to do. That should be understood by all, those in charge, and all of us.
      Agreed in Old Testament times God requires of His people to do many things that we today find appalling but he had very good reasoning behind what he ordered to keep His people PURE but after many tries to get them to keep His laws and follow his commandment .and finding they still would not follow and detested their offerings, He sent His son to be the final sacrificial offering and sith His death and resurrection bringing LOVE instead of all the man made laws that filled Old Testament Mosaic law. Now with the new covenant of Jesus (LOVE) Find anywhere in the New Testament where Jesus tells us to kill anyone Not so in Islam.

    Homicidal maniacs like this sociopathic nutcase are always attracted to whatever group will let them murder with impunity. Islamist terrorist groups are today’s preferred destinations in today’s world. I believe it is much more realistic that he was attracted by a “licence to kill” than that he has become a true believer in islam.

      I don’t think there is ultimately much of a difference…

    • Wellington says

      Feb 10, 2019 at 6:49 pm

      I disagree, Rarely, with your assessment and here is why: Homicidal maniacs and Islam are ready made for each other. Started with Mo. Still continuing to this very day.

      About no other major faith could this remotely be asserted. You know this or should know it.

        Feb 11, 2019 at 12:35 am

        I miss your point.

        • gravenimage says

          Feb 11, 2019 at 10:44 pm

          I think Wellington’s point was pretty clear.

      I agree. It’s probably somewhat different for those who grow up in the culture and religion of islam. When they kill or terrorize for allah I’m sure they think they’re doing the right thing for allah and his people. But with these converts who terrorize it seems more likely to me they already had murder and hate in their hearts. Even if these converts to islam don’t know much about islam they still know about the murder and terror associated with it. If you want ice cream you go to the ice cream parlor, if you want to hate or kill then you go to islam. What other religion can a guy join to cut heads and rape and then be rewarded with virgins? Islam was made for angry idiots and psychopaths.

        Taylor made religion for violent losers and criminals gives an excuse to rape ,murder and stealing with the out card that if you get killed doing it you go to a whore filled all you can screw heaven. It is as if Charlie Manson were a 7th century warlord/religious self proclaim mouth piece of god. This religion operates at a cult status level of having a death sentence for leaving ,and a sentence of death or enslavement for not joining. It has killed more people over the ages then small poxes , and reduced or keep many countries trapped in third world sh*tholes status .

        Violent people could just be violent on their own. They are obviously attracted to a creed that not just condones their violence, but sacralizes it. Most converts to Islam take this very seriously.
