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

Connecticut: Muslim tries to join ISIS, says “I can kill maybe…like a hundred kaffir”

Dec 18, 2019 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Where did Ahmad Khalil Elshazly go to mosque in Connecticut? What is taught in that mosque? Is it being investigated, or would that be “Islamophobic”?

“Connecticut man arrested while preparing to flee US and join ISIS, authorities say,” by Karma Allen, ABC News, December 16, 2019:

A Connecticut man was arrested over the weekend as he prepared to flee the U.S. to join ISIS, federal authorities said.

Ahmad Khalil Elshazly, 22, of West Haven, was arrested Sunday near the Stonington shoreline, where he expected to board a container ship and embark on a trip to Turkey to fight for ISIS, federal prosecutors said Monday.

Elshazly arranged to travel by ship to Turkey because he was concerned about being stopped by law enforcement at an airport, prosecutors said. He allegedly paid someone $500 with the expectation that it would be used to pay for a portion of his trip….

Federal prosecutors said Elshazly was “bent on supporting ISIS.”

Last year, Elshazly allegedly began telling people — both in person and through online messages — that he planned to travel to Syria and surrounding areas to fight on behalf of ISIS, prosecutors said.

In February, Elshazly stated that he had saved approximately $1,000 with the intention of using the money to travel to Jordan and then Syria to join ISIS, according to federal prosecutors. He also expressed a desire to kill 100 “kaffirs,” or infidels, during a meeting in October, prosecutors said.

“God willing! May this country [United States] burn the same way they burned Muslims! May they burn in fire at the end,” Elshazly said during the meeting, according to prosecutors. When he was asked to lower his voice when talking loudly, Elshazly proclaimed, “I am not scared.”

During the same meeting, Elshazly allegedly said, “I want to go to the caliphate and fight there. I can kill maybe … like a hundred kaffir. I can kill them. A hundred kaffirs. If I do something here how many kaffirs could I kill? One, two, three and then I get shot and I die. It is more benefitting if I go there, I could kill more and will get more faithful rewards.”

Elshazly allegedly sent another individual a series of YouTube videos earlier this month, explaining how various high-powered firearms and other weaponry work….

      Flavius Claudius Iulianus,

      I usually take a trip up to Stowe, Vermont in the fall to see the foliage.

      Historically, I would stop at Ben & Jerry’s for a cone of vanilla.

      No more.

      No more…

        You still go and enjoy the fall foliage. Just get your vanilla cone from someone else … and let Ben & Jerry know.

      *Just horrifying*. What teachers would force children to demand such a thing?

      That this was a Jihadist specifically targeting children at the Ariana Grande concert makes this all the more perverse. Glad the parents are outraged.

      Oh good grief–this probably includes all Muslims from countries warmer than Germany. The whole “climate change” thing is witless, but this is the most dangerous thing of all.

    Let this this jihadwatch article serve as a reminder of terrible reality that the jihadist/ Muslims of ISIS are very serious about having arson Islamic terror/murder attacks in America.

    Nevertheless, we ,as Americans , should not live in fear nor be afraid to go to different places or do different things out of being afraid of an ISIS jihad attack . For to live in fear would make the jihadists of ISIS happy.

    Still, even though we need not live in fear we should be alert and aware of our surrounding as likewise be on the lookout for anything appears wrong or out of place. As in “What’s wrong with this picture?” Then if anything is seen that doesn’t seem right then go and inform and right person about it.

    For example , that tee -shirt vendor in New York City , at times square, who saw some smoke come out of a parked van .So he went a told police officer about it. As it has been said “If you see something, say something.” This may be put in another way, be the words of a former US President, Thomas Jefferson, For his wise words apply, even more now, then they did in his own time. For Mr. Jefferson declared “Let the eye of vigilance never be closed.”

    This shows that the jihadists who compose ISIS have a strong and malice-filled “obsession” with the United States and when it comes to their Islamic scheming against America and Americans for future Islamic terror attack and they with their Quran based ideology “are not going to stop” shows the malicious demon-like zeal they have. So we need to ,not live in fear ,but still report to the police anything the seems not to look quite right. As in “What’s wrong with this picture?’ As it has been said “If you see something, say something.” The wise words of Thomas Jefferson may apply to this subject. For Mr. Jefferson declared “Let the eye of vigilance never be closed.”

    Furthermore , concerning ISIS there remains the ,very important, question “How to truly defeat ISIS once and for all ?” The answer to that question was provided in a speech by the ISIS spokesman, Abu Muhammad al Adnani, now dead, in this speech he had declared “True defeat is a loss of willpower and desire to fight…” he further explained “We would be defeated and you victorious only if you are able to remove the Quran from Muslim hearts.” All this leads to a very important question: “Is the Quran the Word of God or is it a fabrication of a man. Thus, is the Quran the truth or a fiction and a hoax ?” The jihadists, as those of ISIS use many verses from the Quran as the main source of justification for their violence, mayhem and murders. As found in For example, 2:191.. 4:47 5:33. 9:5,111,123. 47:4 The answer is clearly given on pages 145 through 157 in THE ISLAMIC INVASION by Robert Morey in which he wrote a section on the Quran with its self-contradictions. Just two of the many he cited are the following “The Quran differs on whether a day is a thousand years or fifty thousand years in God’s sight’ and “Who was first to believe? Abraham or Moses [Sura 6:14 versus 7:143]? The above is inconsistent and illogical. Further, Morey wrote about “The fact that Judaism and Christianity broke up into different sects was used in the Quran to prove that they are not of God [Suras 30:20-32. 42:13, 14]. Yet Islam has broken up into many warring sects and therefore cannot be true if the Quran is right.”

    Moreover, Morey in his book shows many more contradictions and absurdities in the Quran, there are and how Muhammad incorporated extra Biblical and Jewish folklore along with pre-Islamic Arabian myth and parts of Zoroastrian and Hindu stories into the Quran. Furthermore, the Muslims claim that “the Quran is the direct, literal word of God unmodified in any way by the Prophet who uttered them at the bidding of God.”

    Nevertheless, in the book UNVEILING ISLAM by Ergun Mehmet and Eethi Caner has shown that the Quran was modified in the following account on pages 45. “Muhammad felt the need to improve on the words of Allah, since he changed Allah’s wisdom for his own on several occasions. A hadith tells of the nonchalant emendations of Muhammad:’ On a number of occasions he [a scribe] had, with the Prophet’s consent changed the closing words of verses. For example, when the prophet had said ‘God is mighty and wise ‘ Adbollah b. Abi Sarh suggested writing down ‘Knowing and wise’ and the Prophet answered that there was no objection. Having observed a succession of changes of this type, Adbollah renounced Islam on the grounds that revelations, if from God could not be changed at the prompting of a scribe such as himself. After his apostasy he went to Mecca and joined the Qorayshites.’ Other writers reveal that later Muhammad and his people did go war with the Qorayshites and he personally killed Abdollah. Obviously Abdollah knew too much and Muhammad wanted Abdollah’s knowledge to die with him.” In conclusion, the Quran is not only a fiction, it’s also a hoax.

    Clearly he feels he will get more rewards for killing Infidels than for converting them to Islam. Of course that is understandable when the sales pitch is “accept Islam or I will either enslave you or cut off your head.” That makes the total commission for killing Infidels larger and easier to collect than what he is likely to make for a few measly conversions (or “reversions” I should say). Kill an Infidel and Paradise is assured. Convert an Infidel — who knows?

    Where are the ingredients in the Cone Together that would bring us together? If some refugees like chocolate waffle, then fine. I happen to like pork. Add a little pork to it so I can feel like I’m coming together with a refugee.

    It’s a terrible feeling for a human being to be reduced to something equivalent to pigs guts..Yes that is what we kuffar are to the wise holy men of the truth who follow Allah and his final prophet, the wisest most pure man in the history of the universe.

    Ok I gotta stop.. puke..
