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

The Jihad Murder in Florida You Heard Nothing About

Feb 23, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer

My latest in PJ Media:

A 17-year-old, Corey Johnson, murdered a 13-year-old, Jovanni Alexander Sierra, and stabbed two others in Florida in 2018, and this week it was reported that the victim’s family is suing the Publix grocery store chain for selling Johnson the knife, as the sale violated a Florida law that prohibits the sale of knives to anyone under age 18. That’s all well and good, but there is a good deal more to this story: this was a jihad massacre committed in the name of Islam and in accord with its teachings, but it has been swept under the rug. Apparently it doesn’t fit the establishment media narrative.

According to The Blaze, “Johnson, who had converted to Islam prior to the attack, had been under investigation by the FBI because he was viewing radicalization propaganda online, including beheading videos.” Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., Police Chief Clint Shannon explained: “Corey Johnson has confessed his actions to our investigators stating that he stabbed the victims because of his religious beliefs. Our understanding is he had converted to Islam and had been watching violent videos online.”

In the immediate aftermath of the murder, the Palm Beach Post reported that “in January 2017, several local law-enforcement agencies and the FBI came together with the staff at William T. Dwyer High School in Palm Beach Gardens, where he was a student at the time. The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office received information that Johnson supported the terrorist organization ISIS and had reached out to the group online, expressing his desire to join them.”

Not only that. “The FBI told Jupiter police that a counter-intelligence agency in Europe investigated Johnson’s connection to several threats made on Instagram to McAuley Catholic High School in Doncaster, England. Though the report does not say what the threats were, authorities said they ‘were so severe in nature that up to 100 students were removed from the school fearing some kind of attack.’ British news outlets reported that in October 2016, a threat posted on Instagram stated ‘we will kill every single infidel student at this school.’”

Yes, you read that right: he reached out to ISIS, wanting to join them, and likely sent threats of a jihad massacre to a school, and yet over a year later he was still running around loose and unsupervised to the extent that he was able to buy a knife, even though he was underage, and use it on three people, killing one.

No “watch list” for Corey Johnson. No nothing. So the kid wanted to join ISIS! Who cares! It’s just a phase! And anyway, it’s all right: “a sheriff’s detective interviewed Johnson for a mental-health assessment.” What a relief! His judgment? The sheriff’s detective “said the teen sympathized with terrorist organizations.” No kidding, really?

There is more. Read the rest here.

    It’s not the weapon.
    That is just a neutral tool laying on a table.
    It’s the ideology that drives it.
    That is the problem.

    The Jihad Murder in Florida You Heard Nothing About
    …………………….

    Yes, this was Jihad–although most have no idea what this was about.

    But the truth does seem to be coming out:

    “Florida teen held in killing was being investigated by FBI over possible ISIS interest”

    There are ‘slow learners’ everywhere. The British have just decided that maybe it isn’t such a good idea to let convicted terrorists go free after serving half their sentences WITHOUT EVEN FACING A PAROLE BOARD.

    Police Chief Clint Shannon explained: “Corey Johnson has confessed his actions to our investigators stating that he stabbed the victims because of his religious beliefs.”

    Does the police chief understand the JIHAD DOCTRINE, the NEAR-ENEMY DOCTRINE, the TAQIYYA DOCTRINE and the Islamic SUPREMACISM DOCTRINE ??? Does the police chief know which VERSES in the Koran recommend BEHEADING ???

    Without a solid understanding of POLITICAL ISLAM’S TEACHINGS, law enforcement officers cannot recognize the MOTIVATION of jihadists.

    American high schools are now targets for jihad. Even high school students may be attacked by Muslims without warning.

    American parents can no longer assume that their children will be safe from Islamic JIHAD ATTACKS even in a sheltered school environment.

    A Muslim teenager who reads the 164 jihad verses and believes them is a danger to everyone. How many ticking time bomb student jihadis are there in the US today? There must be at least 2,000.

      I agree with the gist of your post, Mortimer–but where did you get that figure?

      It’s not religion in general that is the problem, it is Islam. You don’t find Christians, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, Sikhs, or anyone else murdering in the name of their faith like this. You do with Muslims though.

    When authorities refuse to do anything to stop the actions of someone that has said they intend to murder hundreds in the name of religion that is little different than giving the Jihadists a go ahead to do what they want. What I would see as fair is allow the victims family members to decide how to handle the situation this is something that is given to the family members in Iran were someone has been murdered, but sadly not here in the states. We are more interested in protecting those who harm others than the many innocent in the country.

    I’m not saying that we need to preventative lock everyone up, but it is easy to determine if someone is a danger by taking them in for an hour or two and having different people say things to see if they are easily triggered into murdering innocent people. However it would take a different kind of training for our police as they are rather worthless when it comes to going after those that are unlikely to convict themselves. We need ones that are willing to look beyond just one person and find ways of convicting them, as conviction should not be the main focus it should be public safety. However that is not the case.
