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

Netherlands: Muslim murderer wrote “Those who follow Sharia go to paradise…Allah lets me kill you” on his gun

Mar 3, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

“Suspect Gökmen T. wrote references to Islam, Sharia and Allah on the firearm used to commit a mass shooting in Utrecht in March last year, “reliable sources” told RTL Nieuws. Soon after the shooting on 24 Oktoberplein on March 18th, the Public Prosecution Service (OM) revealed that text was written on the weapon, but never said what it stated. According to RTL’s sources, the following was written on the firearm and silencer, translated from Dutch: ‘Those who follow Sharia go to paradise. Who follows democracy goes to hell. You kill people who are Muslims. And Allah lets me kill you…’ The text corresponds to a note found in what is believed to be T.’s getaway car. That note read, translated from Dutch: ‘I do this for my faith. You kill Muslims and you want to take our faith away from us, but you will not succeed. Allah is great.'”

Good thing we have Pope Francis and our other moral superiors around. If we didn’t, we might almost get the idea that this shooting had something to do with Islam.

“‘Islamic’ text on Utrecht tram shooter’s weapon reported as terrorism trial begins,” by Janene Pieters, NL Times, March 2, 2020:

Suspect Gökmen T. wrote references to Islam, Sharia and Allah on the firearm used to commit a mass shooting in Utrecht in March last year, “reliable sources” told RTL Nieuws. Soon after the shooting on 24 Oktoberplein on March 18th, the Public Prosecution Service (OM) revealed that text was written on the weapon, but never said what it stated.

According to RTL’s sources, the following was written on the firearm and silencer, translated from Dutch: “Those who follow Sharia go to paradise. Who follows democracy goes to hell. You kill people who are Muslims. And Allah lets me kill you…”

The text corresponds to a note found in what is believed to be T.’s getaway car. That note read, translated from Dutch: “I do this for my faith. You kill Muslims and you want to take our faith away from us, but you will not succeed. Allah is great.”

The OM had the handwriting on the note and the firearm analyzed to confirm that they were written by the same person, and that this person was T. This turned out to be the case, RTL’s sources said.

The trial against T. starts on Monday. He is suspected of opening fire on a tram on 24 Oktoberplein in Utrecht on March 18th last year. Four people were killed. The man is charged with multiple counts of murder or manslaughter with terrorist intent. There is a great deal of evidence against him. The shooting was recorded by surveillance cameras in the tram, there were many witnesses, and Gokmen T. confessed multiple times. He told the authorities that he committed the attack for his faith and out of anger about violence against Muslims and Islam being mocked. The mass shooting in Utrecht happened just days after attacks on two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand.

Experts from the Pieter Baan Center who examined T. concluded that he has a personality disorder and an intellectual disability that make him less accountable, according to the broadcaster.

Shortly after the shooting last year, neighbors and people who knew T. told local media that they doubt the shooting had anything to do with his faith. They described T. as a “petty criminal”, a “dealer”, a “loser” with a drug problem, a “lost, confused dork”, someone who lost his way early in life and quickly accumulated a lengthy criminal record….

    On MOnday, Tanis had to be temporarily removed from the court after he gave the finger to the court, disrupted the proceeding and spit on his lawyer.

    That murderous jihadist ,Gekmen , who engaged in that deadly violence of a jihad /Islamic terror attack in Utrecht ,Netherlands , was exposing his total delusional Muslim jihadist brainwashed mindset when in his ignorance speech about “going to paradise’ and “Allah lets me kill you .” is a case of a Muslim completely deceived by the false doctrine of Islam.

    For the Bible teaches murderer “will not inherit the kingdom of God.” Galatians 5:21. The Bible also gives a list of those who are fated to suffer terribly forever in the Lake of fire and murderers are on that list, Revelations 21:8.

    So very evil were those heinous jihad suicide/homicide attacks against those people of Utrecht

    It now should be made known that this jihad murderous jihad attack is the outcome of the Islamic doctrine from the Qu‘’ran [the Koran] of a sexual paradise with many virgins, houris , in it for the male Muslim /jihadist who dies fighting in the jihad for the cause of Islam is found in the “holy book” of Islam, the Koran, in Sura 44:54. 55: 56. 78:31.

    Also there is the Koranic instruction of Sura 9:111 which teaches “The believers fight in Allah’s Cause, they slay and are slain, they kill and are killed.” Getting back to the origin doctrine of Islam from the Koran of a sex –filled paradise with many houris for the use only by the male jihadist who dies fight for the advancement of Islam. All this started when the founder and prophet of Islam, Muhammad manufactured Islam he put , had stolen, some of sex doctrine of Zoroastrian mythology and a yet smaller bit of Hindu mythological sex teachings along with as well as mixture pagan Arabian folklore and myth plus a heavy dose of Judaism and Christianity . Also some of it apostate “Christianity” For the prophet of Islam, Muhammad, couldn’t discern the difference between genuine Bible based Christianity and bogus “Christianity.”

    Those words and teaching Muhammad gathered from many sources, including the virgins /sex place mythology. , and taught as “Divine Truth” were written down on many things then later compiled and then went into the composition of the Koran. So the hoax of the Koran is actually a mixture and fusion Judaism Christianity and mythology of other religions and now the Muslim clerics with the Koranic brainwashing of young Muslims who are thoroughly mind programmed into believing this Islamic/Koranic virgins myth. This deception of false doctrine /myth into the thoughts of some people was predicted in the Bible along with the false teachers who engage in the indoctrination of such a myth /doctrine into the minds and hearts other people . For it is written “For the time will come when they will not stand wholesome teaching, but will follow their own fancy and gather a crown of teachers to tickle their ears. They will stop their ears to the truth and turn to mythology.” Second Timothy 4:3,4. [N.E.B.]

    If only The Netherlands justice system would quickly send him to Sharia Allah’s Paradise.
    He, unrepentant and defiant, has earned his ticket.

    Well Allah does indeed allow and even want him to kill, but the lie is that they go to paradise. Child molesters and those who support them like Allah will have their place in The Lake Of Fire for eternity.
    It can’t be more self evident that only Satan would instruct men to emulate a creep who liked to screw a little NINE year old child. Allah is in fact Satan.

      I couldn’t agree more with your comment, cjk. Maybe these evil Muslims are so brainwashed that they truly believe that all the evil they do is just fine with their sick idea of god, but I believe that these Muslim scumbags must have some notion that the garbage they do is evil, that the rape gangs, the child brides, the right they think they have to kill non-Muslims and all the other filth that Islam contains is wrong. Anyway, like you, I believe they are definitely speeding along towards hell with all the inhuman evil they do and, as you say, they’ll find their rightful place in The Lake Of Fire for eternity. Evil, barbaric, murderous Islam is a constant danger to all non-Muslims, that’s for sure. I also agree with Keys’ comment ( just above). This scumbag has earned his ticket, send him off to hell, where the evil maggot belongs.

      Most muslims probably are unaware of this but muhammed/allah’s greatest enemy is a MAN.

      How can muhammed/the god of islam have a MAN as his enemy?

      allah the champion deceiver koran 3:54

      “The messenger of allah said,’the most hated of men before me on the day of resurrection and the most wretched and the man most hated to him will be a man who was called MALIK AL AMLAK{“the King of Kings”} for there is no king but allah”

      SAHIH MUSLIM VOL 5 HADITH #5611

      Who is this MAN,this MALIK AL AMLAK,this “King of kings”?
      Who has that Title?
      Only ONE man:Revs 19:16

      islamic apologists no doubt will try to {desperately} deny this by the usual tricks..

      1]Fiddling the Arabic{It means what it means .It means King of kings:I have Arabic speaking relatives..}

      2]Deliberately Lying {which is koranically sanctioned k3:28}

      3]islamic deflection/whataboutery :trying to make out that MALIK AL AMLAK refers to some emperor or other{Alexander the Great one muslim -laughably -told me}

      If Sahih Muslim vol 5 hadith #5611 is TRUE {and muslims must accept it is as it is SAHIH} then it appears muhammed/allah’s enemy can only be…Jesus Christ.

    Killing in the name of any religion or culture is a hate crime. What people forget is that these laws need to be applied without looking at color race or faith. Other than it is a factor that the person used to commit their crime. None should get a get out of jail free card just because their religion is saying they are being persecuted when looking at any other group they would not be considered as such.
    A white guy saying God told me to do something is just as valid for any other faith. In other it does not get anyone the right to harm others.

    “Intellectual disability which makes him less accountable”. Why make this connection? All these Muslim terrorists tend to have an intellectual disability but that shouldn’t make them less accountable.

    I have no idea whether the intellectual disability is caused by rampant inbreeding in the Muslim culture, but it doesn’t matter. Don’t use our Christian compassion as a weapon against us.

    “Lots of evidence…”

    Means he will be sentenced to time served and given an apology. Maybe a million Euros for his suffering.

    If he was a “white supremacist” or other “nationalist”, though, gentle Europe would probably try and reinstate the death penalty…
