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

France: Neighbor of Muslim who killed 4 says he went to mosque and practiced Islam “in a normal way”

Oct 7, 2019 9:30 am By Robert Spencer

And there is no doubt that in Mickaël Harpon’s mind, he was continuing to practice his religion “in a normal way” when he went on his killing spree.

“Kill them wherever you find them.” (Quran 2:191)

“Kill them wherever you find them.” (Qur’an 4:89)

“Kill the polytheists wherever you find them.” (Qur’an 9:5)

“When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks.” (Qur’an 47:4)

“Paris police HQ killer ‘stabbed three colleagues before beating a fourth to death,'” The Local, October 4, 2019 (thanks to Kamala):

The Paris police HQ attacker stabbed three of his colleagues in their office before beating a fourth to death as he left the building, French investigation sources say.

The investigation is today continuing into the attack at the Préfecture de Police in Paris on Thursday that left four people dead and fifth critically injured before the attacker himself was shot dead.

French police are today questioning the wife and brother of the attacker, an employee of the police department who had worked in IT services for nearly 20 years….

The motive of the attack is still unclear, with some saying that the man had a dispute with his bosses. It has also been reported that his wife told investigators that he had been hearing voices and was in a state of distress the previous night.

A police source told The Local that the suspect, who was deaf, converted to Islam in recent months, confirming reports in the French media. However there was nothing to suggest he had become radicalised.

“He was a very quiet person. I used to see him going to the mosque but he practised (his religion) in a normal way,” a neighbour, who asked not to be named, told AFP. Local residents said the man had two children aged 9 and 3.

    Islam and its people are evil, “once more”, evil is Muslims and Islam is the Reason! We must stand as one against Islam and its people or be BEAT To death in our homes.

    A neighbor said, “he practised (his religion) in a normal way”.

    Yes, that is how a jihadist would do, seemingly very ordinary, but extraordinary in hatred and determination to kill ‘in the PATH (i.e. ‘movement’) of ALLAH’.

    Is JIHAD ‘normal’ Islam? That is what most people want to know. Answer: The most authoritative answer to that question comes from Kingdom of Saudi Arabia:

    “”Jihad is holy fighting in Allah’s Cause with full force of numbers and weaponry. It is given the utmost importance in Islam and is one of its pillars. By Jihad Islam is established, Allah’s Word is made superior (which means only Allah has the right to be worshiped), and Islam is propagated. By abandoning Jihad Islam is destroyed and Muslims fall into an inferior position; their honor is lost, their lands are stolen, their rule and authority vanish. Jihad is an OBLIGATORY DUTY IN ISLAM ON EVERY MUSLIMS. He who tries to escape from this duty, or does not fulfill this duty, dies as a hypocrite.” – footnotes on p.39, ‘The Noble Koran’, published by King Fahd Complex for Publication of the Quran, Madinah, KSA.

    JIHAD is thus NORMAL in Islam.

    According to the feature article:

    “A police source told The Local … there was nothing to suggest he had become radicalised.”

    That is a true statement. He did not become radicalized, he just became a better Muslim – through the lens of Islam.

    ………………….

    God knows this is true…isn’t that the whole problem?

    So he did. He practised Islam by killing non-Muslims. That’s what ALL the Islamic sacred texts instruct Muslims to do.
