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

Belgium: Young man converts to Islam, says goodbye to his grandmother, plots jihad massacre

Apr 16, 2019 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Yet another in a long line of converts to Islam who have somehow gotten the idea that their new religion commands them to commit treason and mass murder. Authorities have never shown any interest in studying this phenomenon, anywhere in the West. If there were a similar steady stream of converts to Christianity who turned to violence in the name of their new religion, would they be as indifferent?

“Muslim Suspected of Plotting Terror Attack Detained in Belgium – Reports,” Sputnik, April 14, 2019 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

BRUSSELS (Sputnik) – A young man was detained in the Belgian city of Wavre on suspicion of plotting a terror attack, Belgian daily, La Derniere Heure reported citing the spokesman for the federal prosecutor’s office.

A Belgian daily, La Derniere Heure, reported earlier that the young Muslim convert identified went to his grandmother’s home on 13 April to say goodbye before carrying out an attack over the weekend.

Spokesman Eric Van Der Sypt confirmed to the Belga news agency that a 22-year-old had been detained by anti-terror police and would face a judge soon who would decide whether he should stay in custody.

A laptop and cell phones were seized in the operation. The prosecution’s spokesman did not comment on what or when the suspect allegedly planned to target in the attack….

    So he went through a direct, brief 3-step process. In fairness, the first step, call it Step Zero in this context, was the Call to Islam.

    Many more of these morons will be enticed by the flames they saw over Notre Dame.

    What a farce of an ideology. All doom and gloom. How foolish these Muslims make themselves out to be.

    They miss the very message of an abundant life.

    Christ during this Holy Week offers grace and light and spirit and love.

    1.Converts to islam
    2. Bye grandma!So long and thanks for all the fish!
    3. Plots jihad massacre

    1.Converts to christianity{or some other non-islamic, non-violent religion or belief }
    2.Bye grandma!See you next week..
    3.NOTHING sinister…

    So…it must have something to do with islam..

    The usual “converts to islam package”:-

    1.Converts to islam{discovers allah “the BEST of deceivers” k3;54,the pagan god of the Arabs..fails to see allah is NOT the Biblical God}

    2.Adopts faux,silly, Arabic supremacist name{Al Britani,Al Amriki etc} and grows the idiotic muslim beard as required of new members of the Abdool cult.

    3.Assumes the right to do all kinds of EVIL as the koran sanctions such things{Treason,murder,bearing FALSE witness,stealing from infidels:Who needs God’s Exodus 20 laws when allah says you can break them?.}with the added bonus of the possibility of female sex-slaves{It’s OK;allah’s fine with it k4:24!},polygamy and 72 juicy virgins(or Raisins,it depends on the translation} in allah’s eternal,carnal bordello paradise{…which even has Pearly Boys….}

    4.Ends up either 1)Dead 2)In Jail 3)Miserable,stuck in a violent hate cult OR….4)Leaves islam..maybe just maybe,
    belatedly realizes….There is something wrong about this islam/allah/muhammed./hate…Oh Why did I convert to islam;why did nobody say “Stay away from islam”/”Do not convert to islam”…and tries to leave the cult{TOO bad about the death penalty for Apostates:nobody told him when he converted about THAT}

    islam:the religion for stupid people….
    misogynistic,racist,antisemitic,antichristian,scientifically,linguistically and theologically challenged;and that’s just allah and his “perfect” koran

      Islam attracts the crazies/mentally ill people.

    With greatest respect to our host, Robert Spencer, there is no reason for surprise that a convert to islam embraces evil, slavery, war and all other forms of violence against anyone the convert sees, muslim or not, as not of his brand of islam. Getting people to even skim 3 books will get them to understand the truth of this proposition. 1) Spencer’s Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam and the Crusades. 2) Warner’s Abridged Koran and 3) Gabriel’s Unfinished Battle. The only people who refuse to understand don’t want to face the truth and want to live a lie until it kills them. To MY great sadness, this has happened before in history; with the lesson being ignored wholesale today.

    A man else converts. Immediately his new religious fervor overtakes his reason and pushes him to do things that a rational person would not do. With new-found vigor he starts putting into practice everything that his new religion dictates.

    The act of conversion should be a warning, and should be followed by close scrutiny and surveillance, so that the newly-irrational individual doesn’t hurt anyone.

    That young man who was proselytized to Islam and then schemed a murderous jihad attack in his country exposes the vicious, violent and murder mindset that Islam can produce in a person. Islam can transform a peaceful individual into a individual .of deadly violence.

    This convert to Islam in Belgium with his Islamic scheming to inflect violent and deadly jihad attacks , enev in his home nation of Belgium , strongly reflects the teaching of the “holy book” of Islam, the Quran. As, for example, the Quran instructs in Sura 9:111. “The believers fight in Allah’s Cause, they slay and are slain, they kill and are killed.” Nevertheless, the apologists for Islam still have the gall to make the claim the “Islam is a peaceful religion.” What an outlandishly false claim to make.

    I’m not sure about this particular case, but I can’t help but wonder whether or not a conversion to Islam prior to a terrorist attack is always “authentic”.

    Can it possibly be a “ruse” to claim “victimhood” as a Muslim – with hopes of being treated less harshly, etc.?

      James, I think you have hit upon a fair question. How can anyone measure the sincerity or lack of a conversion? Of course, the obvious way to measure the sincerity is to look at the teachings allegedly being adopted and comparing those teachings with the actions of the convert. Having worked with a number of professionals most of my life, I know there is a lot they know that I don’t, and respect my “shortcomings”. It does take the professional who is attempting the evaluation to spend the time actually learning the teachings instead of making assumptions about them. If the professionals don’t know what is being taught, how can they say with any measure of confidence that the convert is or is not sincerely following?

    I read your site 2 or 3 times a day for info I can’t get anywhere else. But you do something that irritates me to distraction. On the front page the lead bits. You need stop with the florid flowery cute verbosity and just get the point already. Please.

    People generally don’t react when a Muslim turns to terrorism, because they know instinctively that Islam is a warlike death cult.

    The Leftarded neo-Marxists are pretending that Muslims are not dangerous, even though the Leftards secretly don’t trust them.

    Don’t worry, allah will provide with everything. There’s even an app with complete qu’ran verses).
    As for salary or goods, I know the infidels have aplenty.
    Girlfriend? Well, depends on whom my right hand possesses first, insh’allah!
