Yet another convert to Islam gets the impression that his new religion calls upon him to kill Infidels. Authorities the world over show absolutely no interest in this recurring phenomenon.
“‘I didn’t think he’d go this far’: School friends of Sydney knifeman say he recently converted to Islam and was an ‘odd person with no friends,'” by Lauren Ferri, Charlie Coe, Hannah Moore and Daniel Piotrowski, Daily Mail Australia, August 13, 2019:
Friends of the Sydney knifeman responsible for a rampage through the city centre say he recently converted to Islam and was an ‘odd person’.
Mert Ney, 21, was arrested after he was subdued by heroic bystanders about 2pm using chairs and milk crates in Wynyard Street, after he allegedly killed a woman, 21, believed to be a sex worker, and stabbed multiple people.
The knifeman was seen on the corner of King and Clarence Street on Tuesday afternoon, wielding a large blade and calling on someone to shoot him.
A man was in the same class as Ney at Blacktown Boys High School said he was shocked at reports he was behind the attacks.
‘I always thought he was a bit weird and he was always posting about converting [to Islam] and stuff like that,’ the man, who wished to remain anonymous, said.
‘[But] I didn’t expect him to go this far.’
While the friend claims Ney was recently converted, the 21-year-old is understood to have fled from a mental health facility before the rampage….
J_sh Brown says
I don’t think he is a recent convert to Islam although that is what is being reported as being said by people who know about him.
As one of three siblings to Turkish Cypriot parents more likely he was already a Muslim but secular / nominally.
From accounts it looks to be that his life was spiralling downwards and it is common for such young Muslim males to get religion i.e. to do a 180 pivot into fundamentalism as a way out of their dysfunctional lives.
Also it is common for such people to then realise that they might be facing eternal hellfire and grasp onto the one and only means a Muslim has to be sure of being saved, to borrow the Christian term, and that is to be killed undertaking jihad. And so this fellow called for the cops to shoot him dead.

He just got more devout.

I’m not sure what his background was. Neither his mum nor his sister wears hijab. His first name “Mert” is Turkish; but his sister’s name is Yazel – I looked it up and it doesn’t seem to be either Turkish or Arabic. His surname, “Ney”, does not seem to be Turkish. It does begin to look as though he *was* a convert, not someone raised in an Islamic family. And of course we do know of so many converts who are extra-specially zealous. In the case of converts to Christianity or Buddhism, say, an over-eager convert is merely a bit embarrassing, but quite harmless to those around. Converts to Islam, on the other hand.. tend to pick up weapons or start concocting explosives…
dumbledoresarmy says
And if he is a convert, then there *ought* be an investigation into when and in front of whom he *became* a convert to Islam.. and what *mosque* he attended, or what Muslims he was in contact with, whether face-to-face or online.
Mario Alexis Portella says
I don’t mean to be a cynic, but perhaps that’s why he converted. I’m not denying that he didn’t have any mental problems, but I can’t be convinced, especially after screaming “Allah Akbar” that he wasn’t inspired by the Islamic texts that call for killing the infidel. It’s time that the West stop making excuses for such individuals who kill in the name of Islam!
CogitoErgoSum says
Maybe keeping mentally ill people away from Islam is as important as keeping them away from guns and knives because it is something inherently dangerous.
JM says
Good point. Death cults are never advisable and are especially dangerous for the mentally ill.
CRUSADER says
MAP,
Islam ☪️ certainly seems to appeal to the lost, crazed, depraved, preyed-upon, and the predators.
Look at the emblem of Islam:
how the evil crescent encircles a star of the innocent soul, a child of God.
Islam is drawn to crushing what is good remaining in this world. Islam is emblematic of a Fallen World!
CRUSADER says
Quelle surprise, merry moslem madboy!
Maybe he can get deprogrammed from that madness, and make his amends to society, mates?
What are the chances?
James Lincoln says
In Western countries, if anyone voluntarily converts to Islam, that person should be watched and tracked very very closely.
No exceptions.
dumbledoresarmy says
Agreed. Because it’s no different from someone’s joining the Mafia. Or, suppose the Thuggee Cult were still extant.. wouldn’t one look a little askance, walk more warily around, someone whom one had reason to believe had become a Thuggee?
Angemon says
Islam – attracting losers since 610AD…
CRUSADER says
Keep keeping Islam as the losing horse in the race !
Michael Copeland says
The police said he had a USB stick with “some ideologies related to terrorism” (jihadwatch, yesterday).
Oh yes?
SOME ideologies?
Can they name three of them?
All these unnamed ideologies, plural. What a problem they are.
This is obfuscation.
The police are not honest enough to say AN ideology, because everyone would think of Islam.
Thus do they continue to keep people in the dark.
tim gallagher says
Michael, it has been mentioned on TV news here in Australia that this man had stuff relating to mass murderous terrorist events, but the one that was mentioned was that recent attack by the man in New Zealand, who killed those Muslims at the mosque. That’s the only one I heard mentioned, which could be a sneaky way to implicate the non-Islam terrorism of the guy in New Zealand. I don’t think so though. But, it seems that this man was drawn to events of mass murder in general. I think he does seem deranged and all over the place when it comes to finding any logic in what he was doing. However, I think Islam is bound to attract people with violence, whether murder, rape, beating up woman, marrying and sexually abusing underaged girls, and on and on. So I think Islam condones all types of nasty behaviour and probably attracts lots of people with extreme anger towards the world. This particular guy does seem to have been a complete lunatic at the time he went on his rampage. He’d recently blown up at home and assaulted his sister and somehow the police hadn’t caught up with him for that offence before he went on the rampage in the middle of Sydney. His sister was on the TV news last night apologising for the murder her brother had committed.
Michael Copeland says
Thank you. Your diagnosis seems accurate. There were plural ideologies, after all.
carpediadem says
On the ABC, the “reporter” mentioned he had been shouting a “terror-related” slogan but deliberately did not mention the cry had been “Allahu Akbar”.
tim gallagher says
No surprise there, carpediadem. The ABC continually run a protection racket for Islam like most of the left do. On the footage that Channel 7 showed, you could actually hear the guy shouting out “Allahu Akbar” fairly clearly, although I think they did put subtitles up about what he was saying. A couple of times, just with my own not so great hearing, it was obvious what he was shouting. But I’m sure the ABC would find a way to cover that up. It wouldn’t fit their Islam supporting narrative.
Francis Weber says
7 was also clipping his A.A. screams!
tim gallagher says
Francis, I think I saw a very early Channel 7 news report of this incident and I’m pretty sure I heard the murderer call out “Allahu akbar” a couple of times clearly enough for me to understand it quite well. But, I’m certainly not surprised to hear that Channel 7 did also censor his A.A. screams in the way that you mention..
CRUSADER says
Way more POPO ?♀️ Response in Philadelphia shootout tonight

Nathan Dunning says
Turkish Parents tells me he was already a Muslim.
gravenimage says
Yes–good point. His “conversion” may just mean he became more devout. And we know what that usually means.
David M says
Looks like he was already on the edge regarding his mental state, converting to Islam with its “kill the unbeliever” crap pushed him over. Islam does that to the weak minded & mentally disturbed.
mortimer says
Disagree. ‘Not’ mentally ill … he converted to the Islam of Mohammed which includes JIHAD.
Narrated Mujashi: My brother and I came to the Prophet and I requested him to take the pledge of allegiance from us for migration. He said, “Migration has passed away with its people.” I asked, “For what will you take the pledge of allegiance from us then?” He (Mohammed) said, “I will take (the pledge) for Islam and jihad.” – Bukhari 4,52,208
David M says
Yes Mortimer Islam includes jihad, but any Muslim with a working brain knows not to actually go out into the streets & commit jihad. This guy didn’t have a working brain so he had no problems in actually doing it. It was his mental illness plus Islam that made him do it. If Muslims couldn’t think for themselves (overriding the jihad command) at all 100% of Muslims would be out in the street killing unbelievers, which they aren’t.
Francis Weber says
Muhammad said “When your numbers are low be peaceful, when your numbers build take over!”
Thanks goes to the Government for starting the take over by letting them in.

…toughest muslim terrorist seen to date in Australia…stabs to death the easy target, runs away from real men armed with a milk crate and cafe chair…
dumbledoresarmy says
Yes, the best part of the whole story was how swiftly and effectively he was taken down.. by a team of three non-Islamic guys who, having very recently immigrated to Australia from the UK, had apparently already spent some time (while in the UK, and for very obvious reasons, notably, Westminster Bridge), thinking about and discussing together what they would do if they – when out on the town together – should encounter an evil person running amok with a knife. So when this evil thug came howling down the street waving a bloody knife, instead of panicking, they activated their previously-discussed plan-of-action, pounced, seizing a good solid cafe chair to wallop him with (which also kept them out of range of the knife), and then once they’d got him down, they subdued him and disarmed him and then all the cops had to do was tie him up in a parcel and pop him in the cop car. The guys who took this thug down are *exactly* the kind of immigrants we need! For St George and merrie england!!
dumbledoresarmy says
Here’s the link, for one description of the four – it was four, not three, I misremembered – who took him down. Three of them escaping Manchester, UK, to come to Australia. All good mates, and they’d discussed what they might do if they were on the scene of a knife attack.
Read it; it makes for inspiring reading. Every able-bodied jihadwatcher here needs to think about these eventualities. (This story reminded me, just a little, of the three blokes aboard that train to Paris, though there the stakes were a lot higher and the task harder because the jihadi had a loaded weapon, not a knife).
One key element, though, is that they were a *team* – friends, mates – who could act *together*. So.. if there’s someone – or more than one person – that you’re usually with when out shopping, or clubbing or going to the gym or whatever… why not do what these guys had done; discuss what you might do *together*, as a team, if you hear ‘allahu-akbar’ and see someone running amok with a knife.

UNCLE VLADDI says
Hah! I was waiting for news of his (almost inevitable!) islamic conversion to surface somewhere!
Walter Sieruk says
That Muslim who engaged in the vicious violence of a stabbing spree, in Australia, was following the instructions for Muslim found in the Qu ‘ran .Which instructs Sura 9123. “O you who believe! Fight those of the disbelievers who are close to you ,and let them find harshness in you…”
Stabbing people who aren’t Muslims is a very effective way of showing them harshness.
Nevertheless, in spite of all the fact of reality, some people still call Islam a “Nonviolent religion”
Those who that that complexly false claim might be wearing their “religious blinders” or they do know the truth and willingly lie.

..David, did you mean to actually type?
“How come we “never hear” of recent converts to Christianity going on a stabbing spree whilst screaming Jesus is the way”
..the answer here my friend, is because, …..it’s a very very rare to non existent event.
What we need right now are “dangerous dog” collars fitted to every known muslim in the community as an immediate priority.
