It is a recurring feature of jihad plots that the perpetrators have recently become more devout. Not every devout Muslim is a jihadi, but all jihadis are devout Muslims. The U.S. intelligence community used to consider a sudden turn to devout observance of Islam to be a possible indicator of jihad terror activity, making the person worth watching. All that was changed during the Obama administration; to consider such possibilities would be “Islamophobic.”
“Overbo bomb suspect: ‘Suddenly he grew an imam beard,'” translated from “Overbo til bombemistænkt: ‘Pludselig fik han imam-skæg,'” by Søren Kjellberg Ishøy, B.T., December 12, 2019 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
The apartment in Herlev, which was searched on Wednesday by heavily armed police in the terror case, was occupied by a father and two sons of Afghan descent.
Anas Khader for many years was a friend of the family, whose oldest son – a 21-year-old man – is now charged with trying to make a homemade bomb with two co-conspirators.
“Overall, the brothers seemed well-integrated into Danish society, and they speak Danish,” said Anas Khader, adding that the father is divorced from the mother in the Afghan family.
Are they religious?
“They are more religious than you and my family are. But nothing more than just seeing them in coats on their way to the mosque on Friday. But it is not very unusual for Muslims to do this,” says Anas Khader, who moved out of the apartment building a year ago, but still visits the apartment where his father lives.
However, there was a difference between the two brothers, says Anas Khader, who went to Lindehøjskolen in Herlev with the brothers.
“The youngest was more Danish, while the oldest was more devout and suddenly grew a long imam beard. I also talked about it with a friend who knows them both. We agreed that over time, the older brother became more constricted,” he says….
This was not the first time police have visited the address, recalls Anas Khader.
“The police were also there in April this year. And there were many officers,” he said.
Back then, the same men – who sat at a constitutional court hearing in Copenhagen yesterday – were arrested for arson and charged with setting fire to a bus. Both were released in October and apparently used the newfound freedom to try to make bombs.
In the constitutional hearing on Thursday, it emerged that the two men and a hijab-clad woman are charged with manufacturing TATP bombs – also called “Satan’s mother.” A substance that is known to be unstable and therefore also dangerous to experiment with….

Security reports have warned of the rise of far-right extremism in Europe over the past years, causing high levels of violence.

If you consider the ideology of Islam as far-right the statement is correct.

They’re claiming all that Jihad is somehow not really Islamic…
No Muzzies Here says
There must be something about Islam that inspires murder and violence. When someone converts to Islam, he tries to practice his new religion as well as he can. He reads the holy book, listens to imams, and goes out and does what he is told to do.
Strangely, a new convert to the Salvation Army doesn’t go out and kill people or blow up buildings. He generally buys a warm coat so he can stand out in the cold ringing that bell.

No Muzzies Here,
Absolutely true.
As an aside, I have actually spent many hours out in the cold “ringing that bell” for the Salvation Army.
Interestingly, in my experience, the “common folk” contributed much more than the so-called “rich folk”…
Wellington says
Good for you, James, “ringing that bell” for the Salvation Army. As for the “common folk” being more generous than the “rich folk,” per what a person owns this is eminently true.
On one sour note, I am afraid the Salvation Army, like other Christian charitable organizations and movements, another example being Catholic Charities, remains willfully ignorant to this day about the true nature of Islam. Indeed, both the Salvation Army and Catholic Charities, among so many other Christian groups, have been in the forefront of encouraging more Muslim immigration to the US and other Western nations.
The Christian portion of mankind historically was not suicidal nor an apologist for malevolence. Sadly, much of it is now.
James Lincoln says
Wellington,
You are correct about a lot of Christian charitable organizations and movements…
As a Christian, it’s getting harder and harder to figure out how to support the good things that these organizations do from their support of encouraging more Muslim migration. Generally speaking, their intent is noble but they are very naïve about Islam – and that is a big problem…
I am currently focusing more of my support of Christian organizations at the local level; donating food / clothing, supporting the soup kitchen, etc.
Kesselman says
The overall political culture in Denmark together with the leftist infested mainstream media is overall deaf and blind to the obvious trademarks of a devout jihadi.—Some say that not even a major terror blow will wake up the drowsy lawmakers.
keya says
In Islam growing more devout = possibly future jihadi

For Denmark and all other nations:
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women. Blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus. Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death.

How many times have we heard accounts like this? Muslim becomes more religious, plots to murder unbelievers.

Save Europe says
I have seen nothing more rancid than a film from Denmark called ‘ Sons of Denmark’ – some ‘boo-hoo’ Leftist supported piece of work, both written and directed by a Muslim, suggesting Muslims are victims due to an ever increasingly rise in Western European populism.
The screenplay suggests they are entitled to commit terrorist acts because of the West’s involvement in meddling with Muslim countries.
At no point does the screenplay suggest that terrorists shouldn’t target innocent civilians who have ZERO input into any foreign policy.
At NO point does it criticise poor Muslim behaviour like acts seen in Cologne, Rotherham, Rochdale – terrorist acts in London , Paris, Nice, Barcelona…..etc….
A VILE film!
