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

France: Muslim crushes two police motorcyclists with his BMW, leaves one in coma, says “I did it for ISIS”

Apr 28, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer

The police in this case will have a hard time explaining that Youssef T was not a jihadi, but was mentally ill, but they will likely find a way. In any case, this is a frequent jihadi tactic. The Islamic State (ISIS) 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….

“‘I did it for ISIS’: Terror suspect crushes two police motorcyclists with his BMW in Paris leaving one in a coma,” by Peter Allen, MailOnline, April 27, 2020:

A suspected ISIS terrorist was under arrest in Paris last night after crushing two police motorcyclists at high speed between his BMW and a patrol car.

The horrifying attack took place in the northern suburb of Colombes shortly after 5.30pm on Monday and left one of the officers in intensive care.

The 29-year-old attacker, who is being referred to as Youssef T, has since admitted ‘I did it for ISIS,’ according to investigators speaking to the Parisien newspaper.

Searches at his home in Colombes and of his car uncovered ‘a letter explaining his action with possible terrorist motives’ and a knife.

The suspect was taken into custody for interrogation at a high security police station in the Paris area.

According to police sources, a man on a moped was first chased by a police motorbike unit carrying out roadside checks during the coronavirus lockdown.

He abandoned his two-wheeler and then fled in a Peugeot vehicle, leaving the police unit congregating outside a shutdown school.

It was then that the black BMW 1 Series arrived at high speed and crushed the two officers who were standing by their bikes and the patrol car.

‘One was trapped between a municipal police car and that of the madman,’ a source told Le Parisien.

Both officers were rushed away from the scene, with the worst injured going to the Beaujon Hospital at Clichy, where he was placed in an artificial coma.

Youssef was known to police, but not to France’s security services, according to the investigating sources.

A spokesman for the Synergie police union, who posted pictures of the accident on Twitter, said: ‘The perpetrator apparently has terrorist motivations which remains to be confirmed.

‘In any event, those who stigmatize police officers and designate them as targets are very largely responsible for these acts.’…

    “We are at war”, said the London7/7 bomber.

    Can French police take this in?

      But more importantly, the motive was very clearly expressed, ‘I did it for ISIS.’ This is not a madman, but an ideological fanatic.

        The problem…. ISIS is seen as a misinterpretation of islam! Does not matter the big support from the muslim communities, does not matter that ISIS and its practise is described as the purest form of islam. The problem… NO western politician can say it, risk civil unrest, … or worse, get not reelected! All there is to do, wait for the end.

          Ah, but only the enlightened West, which is to say the idiotic Leftists among us, knows that Islam is a religion of peace. It is these citizens of muslim-dominant countries, uneducated at our universities, that are ignorant of that fact. If only they had free access to our universities they could become as knowlegable as us.

    Understandable, because, after all, it is Ramadan, a time of prayer, fasting and devotion, during which devout Muslims study their religion intensely, and strive fervently to put into practice all the dogmas, commands, and practices of their religion.

      Ramadan … the month of JIHAD, BATTLES and VICTORY.

      Yes–Ramadan, month of blood and death.

      God, I hate Islam.

    Let’s see how cowardly or not the French/EU Thin Blue Line is in April 2020. Will they be intimidated by bloodthirsty, hatemongering Islamists enough to throw their own under the bus?

  5. Kilauea says

    He’s about to get some severe French justice. I’m thinking at least 14 days in jail before he is released and disappears into a Muslim ghetto where he can plan more attacks. It’s one thing for the French government to commit suicide, it’s another thing for the government to pick suicide for the entire country.

    • PRCS says

      How awful of you, this being Ramadan and all.

    Moslem jihadists go on killing sprees. They kill enthusiastically. There’s no limit on whom they kill or how many. They kill on the slightest provocation. They kill with no provocation. They kill their own.

    They’re most enthusiastic in killing Jews, but they kill Christians, Druze, Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, believers of other religions, believers in no religion. They kill Moslems of a different sect.

    They kill liberals, lefties, commies, pinkos, pacifists with the same zeal as they kill actual opponents of terrorism.

    Watching French news early this morning and the only story about police were the the two cops in trouble for racially abusing a poor Moslim migrant that they had just fished out of the river after he had resisted arrest.

    According to the feature article,

    “Youssef was known to police, but not to France’s security services, according to the investigating sources.”

    Why did this happen?

    A muslim migrant was known to police, and this information was NOT shared with France’s security services?

      I actually fail to believe the DGSI did not know about this scum bag.

    • gravenimage says

      Apr 28, 2020 at 8:14 pm

      Good question, James.

      And police “knowing” about this Jihadist did not stop him from attacking the police.

  10. mortimer says

    Apr 28, 2020 at 12:34 pm

    Ah yes … ‘nothing to do with Islam?’ or everything to do with Islam … since it is in the name of the Islamic State?

    A number of top Islamic scholars endorsed the teaching of ISIS as correct Salafist doctrines shared by Saudi Arabia and Egypt’s Al Azhar University.

    Muslims can no longer pretend that ISIS is not 100% Islamic. The Leftists, it seems, are now aware that their fiction about benign Islam is over. Nobody buys it anymore, even the Leftards themselves … if they ever did.

  11. mortimer says

    Apr 28, 2020 at 12:37 pm

    VEHICULAR JIHAD !!! Any KAFIR target will do.

    Muslims see France as the home of the ‘FRANKS’. Arabs often refer to the medieval Crusaders as ‘THE FRANKS’.

    Arabs delusionally see attacking modern French citizens as the equivalent of attacking medieval Crusaders. Islam is like a hallucinogenic drug that distorts the ability to think reasonably.

    Did the authorities discover the motive
    😎
    That’s usually the way these events play out with a stupid statement “motive is unclear “

    Maybe Casablanca’s Richard “Rick” Blaine had noticed a harbinger of things to come when he said to major Strasser:

    “Not particularly my beloved Paris”…

    France: Muslim crushes two police motorcyclists with his BMW, leaves one in coma, says “I did it for ISIS”
    ………………….

    This is horrifying, but who can even be shocked by such stories now?

    Sounds like an act of war. So treat him as a war criminal and execute him.

    Epstein committed suicide…
    Nôtre Dame Cathedral fire was from work “accident”…
    Islam has nothing to do with terrorism…

    As nauseam….
