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

Brooklyn: Muslim encourages “inflicting harm” on non-Muslims with bombs and knives in NYC subways

Nov 29, 2019 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Zachary Clark is apparently a convert to Islam. From whom did he learn Islam? Where does he go to mosque? Has that mosque’s teachings been investigated? Why not?

“Brooklyn Man Arrested for Encouraging ISIS Terrorist NYC Subway Attacks,” by Katabella Roberts, Epoch Times, November 28, 2019:

A Brooklyn man has been arrested and charged for attempting to provide material support to Islamic State, The Department of Justice announced on Nov. 27.

Zachary Clark, 40, of Brooklyn, New York, was arrested in the borough on Wednesday and was expected to appear before Magistrate Judge Robert W. Lehrburger in Manhattan federal court on the same day.

Clark was charged with one count of attempting to provide material support to ISIS, and one count of distributing information relating to explosives, destructive devices, and weapons of mass destruction, and faces up to 40 years in prison.

According to the complaint, he had previously pledged his allegiance to ISIS twice, first in July 2019, to its then-leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, and then in October 2019, to ISIS’s new leader, Abu Ibrahim al-Sashemi al-Qurayshi….

Clark’s propaganda included calls for ISIS supporters to commit lone-wolf attacks in New York City, and on Aug. 3, 2019, he posted instructions about how to conduct such an attack.

The instructions included guidance on how to select a target, how to conduct preoperational surveillance and planning, and how to avoid attracting the attention of law enforcement when preparing for and conducting such an attack.

On another occasion, Clark posted a manual entitled “Knife Attacks,” which stated that discomfort at “the thought of plunging a sharp object into another person’s flesh” is “never an excuse for abandoning jihad.”

It also said that “[k]nives, though certainly not the only weapon for inflicting harm upon the kuffar [non-believers] are widely available in every land and thus readily accessible.”

According to the complaint, Clark urged the participants in encrypted chat rooms to attack specific targets and posted photos and maps of the New York City subway system, encouraging ISIS supporters to attack certain locations.

Clark posted a manual entitled “Make a bomb in the kitchen of your Mom,” which gave detailed instructions about constructing an explosive device….

    the new moslim patrol would not make an arrest if he had been in their “jurisdiction.” What he was doing is the real islam, and not the fake one of “peace.’

    Make a bomb in the kitchen of your mom?
    Catchy. How about …….

    Do your ears hang low?
    Do they wobble to and fro?
    Can you tie them in a knot?
    Can you tie them in a bow?
    Can you throw them over your shoulder
    Like a Continental soldier?
    Do your ears hang low?

    You gotta be tough when you have ears like that. He can take it. He makes bombs and has knives.

      His, Clint Eastwood impression of a cool thousand yard stare is sadly undermined by his jumbo sized ears. Some people just don’t see what’s staring them back in the mirror 🙂

    Does your IQ plummet BEFORE or AFTER becoming a Muslim?

      I’ll qualify that; …before or after becoming a REAL Muslim who is thoroughly engaged in the activities endorsed and practiced by Muhammad.

    Well that will go nicely with the Sharia pseudo-police patrol cars mentioned in an earlier post, won’t it?

    Why would this man decide to convert to a ‘religion of peace’ – and then encourage violence against unbelievers? Could it be that he is erroneously following a long line of ignoramuses and sociopaths with some Leftist inspired hatred of their own culture? Body language unconsciously conveys emotional messages that the tongue does not. The look on his face conveys very clearly the unmistakable message of anger, hatred and malevolence.

    He belongs in jail with his other jihadist brothers. And if he is ever released, deport him if possible.

    If this guy is guilty of supporting ISIS because he stated he wanted to inflict harm on the rest of us in the name of Allah, does this mean our kids who are hooked on drugs are guilty of supporting terrorism because they buy the drugs from “terrorist” cartels in Mexico and elsewhere? Just a thought.

    Brooklyn: Muslim encourages “inflicting harm” on non-Muslims with bombs and knives in NYC subways

    In light of all the muslim violence and conspiracies against us ya gotta wonder how they could have the gall to accuse us of “islamophobia.” The Left says islam is peaceful and most muslims are nice, but they are living in denial of the larger picture of islam. It’s hard to look at the totality of all islam has been and is and not realize we are at war with that demonic creed and its people. Are we so stupid that we think muslims are going to abandon their conquering aspirations as their successes increase? it’s only going to get exponentially worse. And now there’s a “muslim patrol” in NY as Spencer has reported, would that patrol have reported this conspirator to the authorities? Don’t make me laugh, he’s a fellow muslim fighting for allah. Too many of our leaders are like lambs to the slaughter, I can just hear them touting the benefits of having these Muslim patrols and wanting to increase them. We’re multicultural now, maybe a good caning now and then will help keep the animals in line. There will be every manner of punditry to justify more islam and sharia in our nation. The left and islam are going to embrace each other with the enthusiasm of two desperate ugly people in a singles bar, but we’re the ones who are going to get f*cked.

      I think one can get a good glimpse of how it’s going to go for us with islam by reading Brigette Gabriels book, “Because they Hate.” Here she is in this vid talking about how things went in Lebanon when she was young and the muslims made their move and started a 16 year war. Hundreds of thousands were killed and wounded. The muslim atrocities she witnessed and relates are shocking and frightening. Gabriel is a very intelligent and patriotic American, a real asset to our nation and her freedoms. I know most JW fans know of her, but for anyone who hasn’t read her book I suggest watching this vid. It’s a very moving story, you won’t be disappointed. I truly believe what happened in Lebanon will happen in the West, America included. The muslim population will continue to grow as will islam, and then one day the relative calm will be broken with civil war, murder, and terror, just as it did for the Lebanese.

    He’s not a practicing (IE – hardline) Muslim. They aren’t supposed to adorn their bodies.
    He’s either brainwashed by Leftist media or is mentally unstable.

    One look at him gives you the impression this guy was converted in prison. Until they have separate p
    risons for Muslims and non Muslims, we’ll continue to see converts coming out from the jails.

      …yes, I was just thinking the exact same thing about that pic, this dude looks like he’s a fucking ‘winner’ and a half !

        Let’s face it;islam always attracts the beautiful, the bright and the success stories doesn’t it?

        {sarc/ ..obviously}

        He looks like a half-klingon half-vulcan mutation.

        The smart thing to do{ if you are a muslim} is to leave islam if you can.
        {Not easy as it has a DEATH PENALTY for “apostasy”:but admirable and surely worth it if you can}

        The wise thing to do {if you are a non-muslim} is to stay away from islam in the first place, unless you are a moron,a sociopath or a loser:in that case islam might be ideal.

    Brooklyn: Muslim encourages “inflicting harm” on non-Muslims with bombs and knives in NYC subways
    ……………………

    Another pious convert to the “religion of peace”…

    One begins to wonder if there’s any connection between converting to Islam and the fervent implementation of the violent dogmas contained in the Islamic holy book.

    Recent converts to Evangelical Christianity annoy people by going around saying “Jesus saves,” but don’t slit anyone’s throat if they don’t agree. Recent converts to veganism can be annoying too, but they don’t strap on bomb vests and blow up meat eaters.

    Must be something about the ideology of Islam that inspires its followers to slice necks, shoot people, drive cars into crowds, and blow up buildings.

    A sane society would determine what the connection is, and take steps to protect itself from the violence that comes from it.

    “how to avoid attracting the attention of law enforcement when preparing for and conducting such an attack.” It would appear that his advise to avoid attention is not effective, thank goodness, Of concern is how many people he might have inspired to take action.

    Somebody has some ‘splainin’ to do. Obama and Hilliary told us, repeatedly, that Islam was the religion of “peace and tolerance”.

    Peaceful towards whom?

    Tolerant of what?

    I blame the media for not being able to tell the truth. It’s kind of easy and obvious The evil is easy to see and to defend it and obscure it takes amazing contortions of the brain. I sure can’t keep up with their excuses for muslim killers.

    With the pink earings that creep is obviously gay I am surprised the Mooslems accepted him.

      I think for Muslims wanting to murder Infidels trumps pink earrings…
