Apr 22, 2019 6:27 am By Robert Spencer

Apparently more jihad carnage was in the offing, and even more still could be coming.

“87 detonators found at the Fort bus station,” by Lahiru Fernando, News 1st, April 22, 2019:

COLOMBO (News 1st): Police HQ has issued a press release announcing that Police STF Officers of the Pettah police station have discovered 87 detonators at the Fort Bus Station.

    Only one country is capable of sending this much of explosive materiel where you can buy an AK47 replica in a village in less than 100$.

      Actually, Muslims are able to get their hands on weaponry almost everywhere.

    Draconian steps need to be taken to deal with islamic menace. Throughout history, we have seen times when governments have to impose some kind of martial law in order to deal with some menace. The communist emergency in Malaya comes to mind, the British forces were unable to deal with the communist insurgency using conventional means. The war was dragging on, taking a large toll on life, peace and order and the economy. Finally, with some brilliant tactics, they managed to defeat the communists. They had to suspend normal processes of the law, create Emergency rule with special powers for police, resettle the Chinese population into monitored villages called new villages to prevent the communists from getting supplies. When the press in London got wind of it, they created a fuss about human rights abuses etc, but the authorities stuck to their plan and finally the insurgency was contained and defeated. It took a lot of difficult measures like isolating the chinese population, creating units with special powers etc, moves which in today’s society would be frowned upon. But it was the only way in the end.
    And that is what the West needs to do, if only it had the will and desire to do so. But if they are working to a certain agenda, then of course, we needn’t hold our breath for anything concrete to be done except for the arrests of people who speak out against islam.

      Kuriakose
      The longer we wait to deal with the fact that Islam is a supremacist, totalitarian conquest ideology the more extreme will be the measures needed to defend against it. But war is premature. The first step in combatting the spread of Islam is an immediate ban on further Muslim immigration. This should have been the response to 9/11, rather than wars of liberation.

        Terry Gain: Will the western governments, namely the stalwarts of the EU, ever do it?
        See https://www.kent.ac.uk/news/culture/19586/kent-to-play-leading-role-in-e10-million-research-project-on-the-quran-in-europe
        Quote: ‘Dr Loop said: ‘The Qur’an is deeply imbedded in the political and religious thought of Europe and is part of the intellectual repertoire of Medieval and Early Modern Europeans. As such, this research will question the belief that Islam is ‘foreign’ to Europe but also challenge certain Islamic fundamentalist views about the Qur’an.’……..
        See https://www.kent.ac.uk/news/culture/19586/kent-to-play-leading-role-in-e10-million-research-project-on-the-quran-in-europe
        Can you believe such a statement? It is downplaying the Judeo Christian heritage of Western civilisation and actually attributing it to the quran! I’m shaking my head in disbelief.
        The money comes from the EU, but where did it originate from? Most likely some oil rich muhameddan states. This is certainly an attempt to create an islam that appeals to both muhameddans and westerners. All for what purpose? I’m sure it is to steer the world towards a one world religion in which islam is the key element, to make it acceptable for muslims. The global elite have no fear of Christians (the real Christians are certainly going to object) like they have of muhameddans.
        It explains why the pope is so busy running around preaching some form of chrislam. Surely it all points to a one world religion and one world government.

        It is too late to stop all Muslim immigration into non Muslim countries.

        They are already there in their millions and at the rate of breeding they will eventually prove to be a political, social and economic force to be reckoned with

        It is too late

          The War is already upon us.

          What we do now is what counts.

    One of the questions I would like answered is how much money is spent in Canada and the United States in uncovering and preventing the implementation of these Islamic terrorist plots.

    There are two ways to find detonators. The first is to wait until they explode. The second is to bulldoze mosques.

  5. elee says

    Want to find detonators, search the local mosque. Don’t bulldoze, infiltrate and surveill.

    Just read a report of a bomb going off, in a van parked near a church, as the bomb squad were trying to diffuse it. Didn’t say if anyone hurt or killed by it. (Reuters)

    Another report had this:
    “Sri Lankan authorities confirmed Monday that they were warned about a terrorist plot targeting churches and tourist destinations weeks ago.
    “We never expected it to be so big,” Hemasiri Fernando, the chief of staff to Sri Lankan’s president, told NBC News. “We never thought it would happen so soon.” (NBC)
    **********************************************
    They knew…but “didn’t expect it to be so big”….nor to “happen so soon.”
    Makes a person wonder if they wanted it to happen…not just that big or soon.

      “diffuse” should be “defuse,” I was listening to my daughter read from a text on toxins and poison gases as I typed.

    The Terror-Horror is going on.
    The “Religion of peace” in full swing…..
    And we let them do it.
