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

Germany: Muslim truck driver screaming “Allah” deliberately rams cars, 12 hurt, cops warn against “wild speculation”

Oct 7, 2019 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Yes, “wild speculation” is what we must avoid above all. Here is some decidedly un-wild speculation as to what might have been going on here: the Islamic State issued this call in September 2014:

So O muwahhid, do not let this battle pass you by wherever you may be. You must strike the soldiers, patrons, and troops of the tawaghit. Strike their police, security, and intelligence members, as well as their treacherous agents. Destroy their beds. Embitter their lives for them and busy them with themselves. If you can kill a disbelieving American or European — especially the spiteful and filthy French — or an Australian, or a Canadian, or any other disbeliever from the disbelievers waging war, including the citizens of the countries that entered into a coalition against the Islamic State, then rely upon Allah, and kill him in any manner or way however it may be….If you are not able to find an IED or a bullet, then single out the disbelieving American, Frenchman, or any of their allies. Smash his head with a rock, or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car, or throw him down from a high place, or choke him, or poison him….

“Truck drives into eight cars,” translated from “Lastwagen fährt in acht Autos,” NTV, October 7, 2019 (thanks to Alex):

After an accident involving about a dozen injured, the police in Limburg in the state of Hesse are moving towards a “bigger operation”. The driver of a truck drove into several cars. He has been arrested.

A truck drove through a traffic light in Limburg in Hesse into several vehicles. Around a dozen people were lightly and one seriously injured, said the police headquarters of West Hesse in Wiesbaden. The driver of the truck was arrested after the incident at the station.

According to a report in the “Frankfurt New Press”, the man was said to have hijacked the truck and deliberately rammed the cars in Limburg. The driver of the truck “is said to have been first stopped by several passers-by, with the driver saying ‘Allah’ on several occasions,” the report said. The “FNP” reporter had interviewed the passers-by.

The police of Westhessen wrote on Twitter: “Please note: The suspect has been arrested, our investigations are underway – please hold back with guesswork, no one needs trolls or wild speculation.”

The authorities spoke of a “major police operation”. According to a spokesman, the impact occurred at a traffic light. Several people were trapped in cars, said a police spokesman for the German Press Agency. He spoke of eight affected vehicles. Details are still unclear.

    The authorities’ response to these incidents is turning into a sort of Monty Python sketch.

    Yes sir.we sure understand
    that wild speculation like maybe –
    He’s a Muslim acting out his jihad
    As instructed in his warlord manual
    called the Koran
    I wounder what would happen if they just told the truth right up front and stopped try to down play the obvious
    They have a jihad problem admit it and deal with or is it to late

    The Hesse police are more concerned about defending the ‘benign’ reputation of Islam than being honest about what they know. If the assailant had shouted NAZI SLOGANS or the NAZI WAR CRY, the German police would find no delay in saying what they suspected.

    Double standards suddenly arise when Muslims are involved.

    Germany: Muslim truck driver screaming “Allah” deliberately rams cars, 12 hurt, cops warn against “wild speculation”
    ……………………..

    This would be funny if it were not so deadly.

    According to the feature article:

    “The police of Westhessen wrote … please hold back with guesswork, no one needs trolls or wild speculation.””

    Interestingly, prior to mass Muslim migration, German police never warned citizens about “wild speculation”, etc.

    Why now?

    But of course you already know…

      German Authorities:
      “We are not interested in your opinions about this incident. We will TELL YOU what to think about it. But this will take a long time, not because of the investigation, but because we hope you will gradually forget what happened.”

    At least the German police now is brave enough now to classify it as a terrorist act. We have so many terrorist acts by now that one forgets to count them because they are attributed by the officials to insane, drugged or drunken people but are always carried out by culprits whose origin is known and the German people are in such a state of unconciousness that it is a waste of time to try and wake them up. They refuse to face reality. This is what one gets when voting Socialists, Green and Letists into office https://berlinspectator.com/2019/09/17/berlin-gorlitzer-park-the-green-nightmare/

    It don’t take a mind like Sherlock Holmes to work out the motives for these outrages & atrocities! FFS, even Inspector Clouseau could figure it out in less than 2minutes!

    The man is a 30 year old Syrian, who entered Germany in 2015 as an asylum seeker. It seems that he had subsidiary protection status untill two days ago.
    He is already known to the German Police because he moelsted a girl some time ago and has already tried some other time to steal a van.
    I will never understand why we accept this kind of humans within our societies. In my understanding someone who asked for help in the first place should behave on a civilized level in the second place. And if he does not he needs no help and should be sent home.

    • andra says

      Oct 8, 2019 at 8:56 am

      Latest news: The Syrian was drunk. So the terror theory will be history soon, I guess, because this poor guy could not help but attacking kuffar, on ground of the frustration that his latest asylum demand was refused.
      So, he is not guilty but the person who refused his demand, or rather the cruel German People who really ask for a reason to give him asylum (sometimes).

      • Heidi says

        Oct 8, 2019 at 9:29 am

        Of course he was drunk, Andra. Why should they tell the truth. It is as de Maiziere said in 2015 after cancelling the soccer match Germany-Netherlands: “to tell all we know may unsettle the general public”. As long it doesn’t affect them personally it is of no concern to them. It will have to get worse before it will get better. It is the only way to wake up the West-Germans, in East-Germany or as they are called “the new states” they already got the message.

        • andra says

          Oct 8, 2019 at 4:56 pm

          In East-Germany they sleep as well as in the West. The SED still gets lots of votes, with the last two votes in exchange with the greenies. In my opinion, the highter votes for the AfD are due to the fact that in West Germany we already have four generations of Muslim voters, who traditionally vote green and red. I can not proof it by numbers but most of the Muslim voters live in the West. There are about 10 Million muslim voters in Germany, alone four millions in Northrhine-Westphalia. If you took them out of the voting results in the West the percentage for the AfD would be far higher.

          The Syrian in Limburg, by the way, is no terrorist any longer. He had personal motives for the attack.

    “wild speculation”

    Yes indeed, always, in view of such incidents, all too soon, the “weak-minded” and fearful leap to and surrendered to that unwise and “unjust” proclivity.

    When it is clear, in view and consideration of the facts and circumstances, sounder minds would reason, there is no justification whatsoever to think this unfortunate “accident” is faith-based.

    “the man was said to have hijacked the truck,” then, “deliberately rammed the cars in Limburg. The driver of the truck,” said several passersby, while doing his said ramming, “saying ‘Allah’ on several occasions….”

    Understandably, “The police of Westhessen” begged, “Please …please hold back with guesswork, no one needs … wild speculation.”

    Indeed, no one needs such … especially when, as pointed out, “Details are … [so] unclear.”

    Clearly this is the work of some white nationalist spitefully trying to give islam a bad name
