Cue the avalanche of establishment media articles explaining that this had nothing to do with Islam. Or maybe that propaganda barrage isn’t even needed anymore. Everyone now takes for granted that whenever a Muslim commits mass murder in the name of Islam and in accord with its teachings, he becomes ipso facto non-Muslim, and only greasy Islamophobes would think otherwise.
“Gökmen T. wrote in a letter that he acted in the name of Allah,” translated from “Gökmen T. schreef in briefje uit naam van Allah te handelen,” RTL Nieuws, March 19, 2019:
The note found in the Gökmen T. flight car states that he acted in the name of Allah at the time of the attack on a Utrecht tram. He also greets his “Muslim brothers” in the letter.
Based on this, combined with the ties of T.’s brother and father with Salafist Muslim movements, the police and the Public Prosecution Service still think this was a terrorist attack.
That is what De Telegraaf writes. The note was found in the red Renault Clio that prime suspect T. used after the attack.
Terrorist motiveBecause of the discovery of the note and ‘the nature of the facts’, the police and the Public Prosecution Service take ‘seriously’ into account that there is a terrorist motive behind the attack.
A conflict in the relational sphere, such as honor killing, would be much more unlikely, since no relationship has been established between the suspect and the victims….

”Cue the avalanche of establishment media articles explaining that this had nothing to do with Islam.”
We all know that now. It is widely established that whenever a muslim attacks and kills, he is always portrayed as having severe psychiatric problems, having anti social behaviors, being a small time drug dealer, drinking heavily, smoking pot, etc, etc……all things non islamic, so this is the narrative that will transpire again in this story.
It is bizarre that this sect seems to mentally disturb many among their followers. ;0)
Or Else! says
Islamists like Sarsour will remain silent on these issues as long as the Western dhimmi leaders and their propagandist media keep playing the “mentally ill” and “Islamophobia” cards.
That’s one big deck! At least 34,747 played since 9/11.
CRUSADER says
Those are only the acts played out which are counted and reported and announced….
Many more than that have occurred…..
God knows, has been taking measure of it all.
Muslims think they are going to Paradise, but their Allah deceived them.

RE: the “story” told by mainstream media vs Jihadi. BOTH can be true and that is even more important to make the general public aware of. As Ayaan Hirsi Ali said a few years back, these guys have a crummy life, drugs, crime, etc, and eventually when they get tired of always being a failure, they suddenly get religion and take the easy way out: beam me up, Allah, I’m ready for my 72 virgins! Here’s my free pass: a couple of kafir lives!” It is precisely because Islam promises the cancellation of all debts to martyrs that stuff like this happens, so it has everything to do with Islam. So don’t downplay the the first part of the story!!
Michael Copeland says
One encouraging sign is that the police say that an honorific killing motive was unlikely.
Not that long ago they did not even know what an honorific killing is.
Michael Copeland says
Curses to Otto Spelczech. He is trying to deflect attention away from honor killings.

“Everyone now takes for granted that whenever a Muslim commits mass murder in the name of Islam and in accord with its teachings, he becomes ipso facto non-Muslim, and only greasy Islamophobes would think otherwise.”
I don’t think that’s true, when a Muslim kills in the name of Islam we do and should call him a Muslim.
However, if a person with a Muslim name does something bad and does not refer to Islam then it makes no sense to refer to his religion (supposed religion because we don’t know a person’s religion based on name only). For the same reason we don’t call white american criminals “Christians”.
Of course every jihadwatcher would agree with the latter proposition but reject the former because of the double standard at work on this site.
CRUSADER says
Former Muslim imam, Dr Mark Gabriel was so disgusted by Islam
that he changed his name to match his new life.
Lebel…. there is a new label for you, if you would just choose to leave your ignorance behind
and step into a new life.
CRUSADER says
Should we all believe him, though?
Doesn’t he know that Islam is the Religion of Peace?
He seems to be saying it is a religion of pieces, instead.
Walter Sieruk says
Yes .of course the Muslim , in the Netherlands who was also a jihadist murdered all those people, in the tram, in the name of his god, Allah.
For the god of Islam likes it when non-Muslims [Kafirs] die . About the god of Islam ,the television Imam Suliman Satari said “Annihilate the Infidels… Allah count them and kill them, to the last one and don’t leave even one.” Furthermore Imam Abu Hamza Al-Masri said “What makes Allah happy? Allah is happy when Kafiers get killed. [1]
. The above words of these Imams reflect the example of Islam’s prophet and the teachings of the Quran. “Muhammad now fell upon them [the Jews] slew all the men, nine hundred of them…”[2]
Moreover, the Quran reads “When ye encounter the unbelievers strike off their heads, until ye have made great slaughter among them. Verily if Allah pleased, He could take vengeance on them without your assistance, but He commandeth you to fight His Battles.” 47:4
In short, these Imams and their murderous prophet with their bloody Quran show the world what Islam really is. After all, Jesus did teach “by their fruits you will know them.” Matthew 7:20. [NKJV]

Furthermore, it should be well understood that the God of the Bible is not really Allah the god of Islam. To explain, through the passing of time it has become widely accepted that the word “Allah” is just the Arabic word for God. This started when truth compromising Bible “translators” substituted the word Allah where the word God should have had been uses in the Arabic translation of the Bible. Furthermore, in the glossary in the book ASSASSINS! By Dr. Haha Lung it defines Allah as the “Pre-Islamic Lunar god : the god of Islam. “ Likewise, in the book entitled INSIDE ISLAM by a former Muslim who is now a Christian, Reza F. Safa ON PAGES 22, 23 it reads “In pre-Islamic times both Allah –worship and Baal-worship involved the worship of the sun, the moon and the stars which h defines them as astral religions. [Which are condemned in the Bible, Second Kings 23:5] The crescent moon, which was the symbol of moon worship, is also the symbol of Islam.” In conclusion the Islamic god, Allah, is not the God of the Bible.
The words in brackets are my own. In addition other some other books that expose this little known truths are WHO IS THIS ALLAH ? by G..J.O.. Moshay also UNVEILING ISLAM by Ergun Mehmet caner and Emir Fethi Caner and THE ISLAMIC INVASION by Robert Morey . There is also PHILISTINE by Ramon Bennett and ANSWERING JIHAD by Mabeel Qureshi .
