Muslim Stabs Four Random People, But Relax: Cops Say “Zero Evidence” It’s Terror-Related

Mar 17, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer

It’s funny how so many Muslims with “mental health issues” go on stabbing sprees, but shhhh – you’re not supposed to notice that. My latest in FrontPage:

It is insufficiently understood how much Leftist willful ignorance regarding the nature and magnitude of the jihad threat deform our response to it; a recent incident in Australia shows yet again how dangerous this denial really is. The Age reported Thursday that a man named Mohammad Ibrahim “stabbed four people, killing two, in random, ‘senseless’ attacks across the city’s inner-east.” But there’s nothing whatsoever to be concerned about: “Assistant Commissioner Glenn Weir said there was ‘zero evidence’ to suggest the attacks were terrorism related. Ibrahim had no criminal history and was estranged from the mother of his child.”

It may be that these attacks were not terrorism related. But the fact that Ibrahim had no criminal history establishes nothing. There was a point in every jihad terrorist’s life when he had no criminal history.

Likewise, the fact that Ibrahim was estranged from the mother of his child also establishes nothing about whether or not his attacks were terrorism related. Many men are estranged from the mothers of their children and yet do not go on stabbing sprees of random people. Some men also are jihad terrorists and are simultaneously estranged from the mothers of their children.

The perspicacious Commissioner Weir continued: “There’s nothing to indicate at this early stage that this is anything other than a random act of senseless violence.”

Maybe there isn’t. But the Islamic State issued this call in September 2014: “So O muwahhid, do not let this battle pass you by wherever you may be. You must strike the soldiers, patrons, and troops of the tawaghit. Strike their police, security, and intelligence members, as well as their treacherous agents. Destroy their beds. Embitter their lives for them and busy them with themselves. 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….If you are not able to find an IED or a bullet, then single out the disbelieving American, Frenchman, or any of their allies. Smash his head with a rock, or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car, or throw him down from a high place, or choke him, or poison him.”

Now Commissioner Weir may be right: that call or something like may not have had anything to do with Ibrahim’s actions. But what if it did? In that case, how would what he did look any different from a “random act of senseless violence”? If his stabbings of random people were an act of jihad, as we have seen so very many times before, Ibrahim wouldn’t be carrying an ISIS membership card. He need not have had contact with any ISIS members to have heard about that call and decided to heed it.

The Age added: “Police revealed Ibrahim spoke to them in 2018 about his concerns that IS operatives from Mildura were out to kill him. He wasn’t taken in for an assessment at the time but was flagged on the police system as potentially having a mental health issue.”

Maybe Mohammad Ibrahim does have a mental health issue. But the fact that he thought that the Islamic State was out to get him does not in itself prove that he is some “moderate” who would never undertake violent jihad himself. And no one ever seems to ponder why it is that so many Muslims with mental health issues somehow get the idea that stabbing random non-Muslims on the street is the thing to do. To consider such a question, of course, would be “Islamophobic” on its face, and “Islamophobia” is the one vice that law enforcement and intelligence officials are determined to avoid at all costs.

Has the whole world lost the ability to think clearly? Will this incident be investigated properly, with examination of all contingencies? Almost certainly not. Today’s political and cultural climate, not just in Australia but all over what has up until recently been known as the “free world,” makes that virtually impossible.

    When non-Muslims go postal they usually target their boss, their family, or everybody in range. When Muslims lose it they prefer non-Muslim targets out of the chance that Allah will not only forgive them, but possibly reward them. They may even expect a divine reward. I am speculating about all of this but it lines up with every case I’ve come across so far; even a crazy Muslim still knows halal from haram. Islam is a religion tailored for and by such people.

        If you don’t understand AL WALAA WAL BARAA, you cannot understand Islam. W-B (hatred directed against kafirs) is the motive of Islam. Allah hates kafirs and wants Muslims to hate them too.

    If a German with real mental illness shoots migrants, it is called: rightwing terror. And called the bigger threat to Germany. Does not matter Europol 2019 numbered the rightwing terror to 1.5% (one point five) and leaves the rest for islam and the left. But when a muslim does, what Allah commands, it is called a mentally ill person. If it would be single a event… but it happens daily!! In the cases I knew and witnessed, it did not even make the news… ‘it does not fit the picture of islam we want to paint!’

    The police commissioners in countries like Australia, UK, etc., should just come out and say it:

    For now and in the future – any time a muslim stabs, shoots, or runs over, etc., non-muslims, it will automatically be judged to be non-terror related.

    Always.

    So don’t bother to ask us any pesky questions.

    Case closed (sarcasm/off).

    One aspect of this mess is the almost unimaginable callousness of those who are still allowed ( for how long ? ) to be called our “leaders.” The bosses of the EU ( I’m not referring to queen Liz) and the US are not stupid. They are consciously lying about the Islamist threat , knowing that their lies and ineffective “policies” get people killed. (what is their goal? – an excellent topic for discussion.)

      GI, this is not wilful ignorance by the police anymore but criminal negligence. These top cops know exactly what they are doing and saying about islam. The commie/socialist educated masses might be guilty of wilful ignorance but not the police. They have intelligence networks and know exactly the threat that islam poses but they have lost control of the situation and can’t and/or won’t admit it. They also fear what would happen if people were told the truth; the no go zones of SW Sydney and suburbs of Melbourne would be aflame. Every mosque in the country would be destroyed and there would be civil war. That goes for every country that has been infected with islam, if the general population were told the real truth by authorities about islamic goals of world domination there would be civil war.

        There needs to be a global one before it is too late. That is in their written doctrine of dominance, murder, and enslavement….which is nothing at all new to them. They learn this whilst at their mother’s teat.

    Commissioner Weir said, “There was zero evidence that the attacks were terrorism related”, and probably just “a random act of senseless violence”. If this is what Commissioner Weir truly believes, then he – like so many other western officials – epitomizes the politically correct mindset which has been indoctrinated into such people over the last 50 years or so by leftist academics. How many more stabbings like this will have to occur around the world before officials like Commissioner Weir see through this smoke screen, and connect the dots?

    Has Commissioner Weir read the Quran? Does he understand the Islamic doctrine of Jihad (holy war against unbelievers)? Does he understand their doctrine of Hijra (migration in the cause of Allah)? Does he understand the doctrine of Al Walla Wal Barra (that Muslims must hate those who Allah hates – ie all infidels including him)? Read the Islamic scriptures Commissioner – it’s all there in black and white!

        Where I live, city of just 1 million, there are three gov run centres, which support migrants who might be victims of right-wingers. Nobody ever saw one of these, oh so scary right-wingers. But I know plenty of people personal being attacked, mugged, rapped by migrants,.. Help for them? NO!!! If you ask for psychological support, the answer is – pay yourself. If you then go and talk, first thing the doc tells you: to be clear, that the attacker was muslim, migrant will not be subject of our meetings otherwise I ask you to leave! … This I heard twice myself. I have to be tankful for the enrichment, be thankful to see family and friends bleed.

    The only way a muslim can be sure all his sins are forgiven at the end… by killing non believers. If it is written that simple in ‘the book’ why is nobody in the west will to read it.

      Yes–this is how pious Muslims think.

    The Organization of Islamic Cooperation, the Muslim group that consists of mostly Muslim countries, the group that introduced the word “Islamophobia” to the world, Soros, the EU, Trudeau, Macron, Obama, Hillary, Angela, CAIR/the Muslim Brotherhood hoods, all the world half-witted politicians have worked tirelessly on population replacement. So now you must hush your mouth if you do not like what you see. Listen to the squad they will inform you when you will be allowed to have an opinion.

    Approximately 15% of Muslims around the world self-declare as supporters of jihad-terrorist groups.

    According to the Leftard narrative, those 15% of jihad-supporters are ‘MENTALLY ILL’.

    According to the Leftards, 200,000,000 Muslims are mentally ill.

    • Florian says

      Mar 18, 2020 at 12:00 pm

      I would place the numbers higher… media and politics are mixing the words for radical groups: Jihadi, Islamist and Fundamentalist. Jihadist the once we all know, Islamists are the one trying to undermine the west on a political way by demanding extra status, propaganda,… Fundamentalist is supporting both groups. Ever hijab wearing women can be considered radical. Wearing a hijab is not part of the religious part of islam. It is part of the justice system in islam and there for does not consider western law of value.

  11. mortimer says

    Mar 18, 2020 at 11:57 am

    According to the leftist narrative, a mentally ill Muslim is one who believes and acts out the 164 jihad verses in the Koran.

    The Leftards believe (with an absurd disdain for logic) that a Muslim who obeys Allah’s commands in NOT obeying Allah’s commands.

    The Leftards have convinced themselves that they know what Islam teaches BETTER than all the sheikhs at Al Azhar University.

    Totally absurd.

    it maybe zero evidence, but it’s 100% a terrorist act if a muslim is evolved.
