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

Islamic State claims responsibility for London Bridge jihad massacre

Nov 30, 2019 3:30 pm By Robert Spencer

There is no reason why this couldn’t be so; the Islamic State has many times called upon Muslims to murder random civilians in Western countries. If they didn’t do this one, they’ll keep trying.

“Islamic State claims responsibility for London Bridge attack,” Reuters, November 30, 2019:

Islamic State said the London Bridge attack on Friday was carried out by one of its fighters, the group’s Amaq news agency reported on Saturday. The group did not provide any evidence.

It added that the attack was made in response to Islamic State calls to target countries that have been part of a coalition fighting the jihadist group.

British police on Friday shot dead a man wearing a fake suicide vest who stabbed two people to death in London and wounded three more before being wrestled to the ground by bystanders, in what the authorities called a terrorist attack.

The attacker went on the rampage just before 2 p.m., attacking people at a premises near London Bridge in the heart of the city’s financial district – the scene of a deadly attack by Islamist militants two years ago.
Half a dozen bystanders tackled the suspect to the ground and grabbed his knife. A video posted on Twitter showed police dragging one man off the suspect before an officer took careful aim. Two shots rang out. The man stopped moving….

    Isaiah 42:10

    Sing to the Lord a new song,
    his praise from the ends of the earth,
    you who go down to the sea, and all that is in it,
    *you islands*, and all who live in them.

    All credit to the men who pursued the killer from Fishmongers’ Hall. The narwhal tusk kept him away from them, while taking a fire extinguisher was a brilliant improvisation: releasing it in his face completely disoriented him, and certainly gave them the advantage, enabling them to close in and pin him down. They were not just quick-witted: they were extremely brave.

    How many of us would go after a crazed knife-man?

    Doesn’t need to claim responsibility We know what causes death since Islam arrived.

    One of the explanations as to how such totally unconscionable, ruthless, malicious actions and murders that are committed by the Muslim terrorists, as in the violent vicious London Bridge jihad attacks, who compose the brutal and deadly jihad entity ISIS is answer in the following . The jihadists of ISIS are engaging in the Islamic doctrine of “Muruna” which is the dogma of Islam that teaches committing evil for the greater good is a noble part of the jihad for Islam. This is, in essence, the same type of “philosophy” that the communists had gone by in the twentieth century. That it’s a “good thing “ to commit many evils to obtain a “worker’s paradise.”

    Likewise, during World War II even the Nazis had this line of thinking.” To express, as in to illustrate this idea, even more, is by using a twenty-first century movie. Near the end of this movie, just before the final defeat of the super-arch –villain General Zod , that super villain said “No matter how brutal and deadly I was I did it for the greater good.” That is the common mindset of many villains including those of ISIS.

    Why do I have a hunch this officer that took “careful aim” is going to soon be fired…

      The poor man is probably already marked for death by every slave of Allah in Britain. He should be praised and rewarded with a medal for his quick thinking and decisive action — and his example needs to be followed. That of the quick-thinking and brave responders from Fishmongers’ Hall as well, who probably saved many lives.

      Maybe the officer will be crucified for not giving the creature a chance to surrender?

    It added that the attack was made in response to Islamic State calls to target countries that have been part of a coalition fighting the jihadist group.

    “The only reason we have killed this man today is because Muslims are dying daily by British soldiers. And this British soldier is one…. Through many passages in the Koran we must fight them as they fight us… You people will never be safe.” – Michael Adebolajo, murderer of Lee Rigby, 2013

    ““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” – Abu Muhammad al-Adnani , ISIS spokesman, 2014
