“Special Agent in Charge Rachel Rojas revealed Sunday that investigators have not yet been able to determine the motive….After a trip home to Saudi Arabia in February, colleagues say he had become more religious.”
Yeah, his motive is a real mystery — to those who have swallowed the unquestionable dogma that Islam is a religion of peace that has nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism.
“Saudi Pensacola shooter was left ‘infuriated’ after instructor nicknamed him ‘Porn Stash’ due to his mustache in front of his classmates and filed an official complaint earlier this year,” by Ariel Zilber, Dailymail.com, December 9, 2019:
…Special Agent in Charge Rachel Rojas revealed Sunday that investigators have not yet been able to determine the motive….
Authorities also believe the shooter authored a series of social media posts in which he talked about U.S. support for Israel and scolded Americans for being anti-Muslim.
After a trip home to Saudi Arabia in February, colleagues say he had become more religious, The New York Times reports.

Muslims kill innocent people who have been very good to them and then complain about Islamophobia. It is tiresome.

Islam has NOTHING … absolutely NOTHING … to do with ISLAM! And JIHAD has NOTHING to do with RELIGIOUS WARFARE AGAINST THE DISBELIEVING DIRTY KUFAAR.
“Jihad” is defined by Bukhari as “Holy fighting in Allah’s Cause.”
A more complete and the most official explanation of ‘jihad’ is provided in the Book of Jihad, on page 580 of Maktba Dar-us-Salam’s publication of Sahih Al-Bukhari:
“Jihad is holy fighting in Allah’s Cause with full force of weaponry. It is given the utmost importance in Islam and is one of its Pillars. By Jihad Islam is established, Allah is made superior and He becomes the only God who may be worshiped. By Jihad Islam is propagated and made superior. By abandoning Jihad (may Allah protect us from that) Islam is destroyed and Muslims fall into an inferior position. Their honor is lost, their lands are stolen, and Muslim rule and authority vanish. Jihad is an obligatory duty in Islam on every Muslim. He who tries to escape this duty dies as a hypocrite.”

Don’t these liberals realize that the constant cries of “Islamophobia” are only going to convince some muslims (the ones that don’t already believe it) that they are under siege and that the west is the enemy? If you baby adults they will act out at any perceived transgression, including an innocuous nickname like “porn stash”.
mortimer says
Response to LOD … the Libtards actually realize they are in an unholy alliance with Islam … the RED-GREEN AXIS OF EVIL. Lenin and Stalin also made an unholy alliance with Islam in the 1920s. They subsequently all but one mosque in the USSR … left open as a show-piece for visiting Leftarded Fellow-Travellers from the West.
Today’s Leftards realize that Islam has something called ‘jihad’, but they convince themselves that ‘JIHAD’ means HELPING COMMUNISM TO TAKE OVER … or something similarly self-deluded.
The Leftards DO NOT realize that Islam hates GODLESS COMMUNISTS more than members of any other religion, but the GODLESS COMMUNISTS of 2019 are useful allies.
Today’s godless Leftards are USEFUL IDIOTS of the jihadists who laugh at how the propaganda work is done for them by naïve Leftards.

correction: They subsequently CLOSED all but one mosque in the USSR …

“Investigators have not yet been able to determine motive.”
If this is actually true, then there is denial going on, on a massive scale.
Kesselman says
When does it dawn to authorities that Saudi Arabia is the center of jihad together with Iran. George Bush was the first president to make a link between Arab Mideast and terror. Although Saddam Hussein had nothing to do with jihad in West Bush understood the importance of signals in due time.—And those signals should be heavy rain every time terror could be related to a certain geographical spot in the Arab and Moslem world.
Firstly, we must recognize the entire Islamic ideology as our enemy. Not just ISIS, Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah, Al Qaeda, Taliban, Muslim Brotherhood, etc. But ALL of Islam.
Secondly, we must follow up on our commitment to eradicate this evil ideology by seeking willing allies such as Russia and China.

Kesselman writes: “Saudi Arabia is the center of jihad”
Yes, it is, and they published the OFFICIAL definition of jihad in the footnotes on p.39, ‘The Noble Koran’, published by King Fahd Complex for Publication of the Quran, Madinah, KSA.
“Jihad is HOLY FIGHTING in Allah’s Cause with FULL FORCE of numbers and WEAPONRY. It is given the UTMOST importance in Islam and is one of its pillars. By Jihad Islam is established, Allah’s Word is made superior (which means only Allah has the right to be worshiped), and Islam is propagated. By abandoning Jihad Islam is destroyed and Muslims fall into an inferior position; their honor is lost, their lands are stolen, their rule and authority vanish. Jihad is an obligatory duty in Islam on every Muslim. He who tries to escape from this duty, or does not fulfill this duty, dies as a hypocrite.”

Thank you Mortimer. This needs to be taught until It is common knowledge.
Kesselman says
Thanks for your comments, Mortimer. Always thoughtful!

I was stationed in Pensacola and we made fun of these misfits when I was in Tech School also. Not too much to their faces, but they just were not getting much accomplished. Every single misfit one of them said he was the son of a very rich shiek/sheek, and grew up in palace ( yeah sure, whatever)
I have family stationed there right now, thankfully he called right as the news was hitting the TV to let us know he was not near that part of the base and is ok.

Thanks for that account, Roberta. It does not surprise.

According to the feature article:
“After a trip home to Saudi Arabia in February, colleagues say he had become more religious…”
Any time a Muslim suddenly becomes “more religious” – especially after a recent trip to the Middle East – VERY bad things are likely to follow…
Infidel says
He was a Saudi! In other words, he was brought up in a country where it is mandatory to follow all rules of Islam – regular prayers, laws about gender roles, death penalty for apostasy and so on. Had he been a tolerant person, he would have been in the same boat as Raif Badawi, the Saudi dissident who’s persecuted by the regime for criticizing the laws even though he was careful never to criticize either the king or the muttawakil, or the Islamic police. In short, he’d have been persecuted for alleged apostasy.
So it’s hard to believe that just a single trip this February would have made him more Islamically inclined to commit a Jihad attack in the US: more likely, he’d have been inculcated w/ that stuff throughout his life in Saudi Arabia.
On a related note, I’m glad to see Matt Gaetz be the one person on the GOP side (Gabbard doing it on the Dem side) who questions the relationship w/ Saudi Arabia and advocates taking a harder line

Pensacola jihad murderer became more religious after trip home to Saudi Arabia in February
…………….
This should surprise no one. Muslims so often become violent after becoming more devout, because this is what Islam teaches.
DazzleMe says
Religious—I think radicalized! What these people do is nothing about religion!
gravenimage says
It has a lot to do with Islam, I’m afraid.
JamesC says
A man is not “more religious” if his turn to religion makes him more of a murderer than he was before.
The Letter of James 1.27 got it right:
“Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.”
Does Islam define religion in that way ?
