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

Germany: Muslim migrant confesses to placing concrete slabs on train tracks

May 6, 2020 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer

In June 2019 in Germany, a high-speed train hit concrete slabs that had been placed on the tracks by saboteurs.

In December 2018, cement blocks were put on train tracks in Germany. The Local reported that “Islamic State (IS) flags and writings in Arabic were found near the crime scenes.”

In August 2017, al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) published an article in its Inspire magazine, entitled “Train Derail Operations.” It called upon Muslims to target “the lengthy unguarded tracks in the U.S., France, and the U.K. and to place obstacles that will cause trains to derail, striking fear in the hearts of the West as well as weakening their economies.”

In March 2019, two Iraqi Muslims were arrested for attacks on German trains. One was “believed” to be a supporter of the Islamic State.

In July 2019 in Russia, seven Muslims were jailed for plotting to stage a collision on a high-speed railway between Moscow and St. Petersburg.

On September 23, 2015, Raed Jaser and Chiheb Esseghaier were sentenced to life imprisonment for their roles in a jihad terror plot to derail a passenger train that travels between New York City and Ontario.

“Concrete slabs laid on train tracks – ICE almost derailed! Syrians confess to deed,” translated from “Betonplatten auf Bahngleise gelegt – ICE fast entgleist! Syrer gesteht Tat,” WizeLife, May 5, 2020 (thanks to Medforth Blog):

On Saturday, April 25, the driver of an ICE [InterCity Express train] reported that he had driven his train over several concrete slabs. The train could easily have been derailed, only by luck did it not happen, and nobody was injured. The police have arrested a Syrian migrant who has largely confessed, and who is now under investigation for attempted murder.

The Syrian suspect, who according to the police has already confessed to most of the crime, had put several concrete slabs on the tracks of the 5830 train line near Osterhofen (in the Lower Bavarian district of Deggendorf) between 3 p.m. and 4 p.m.

After a few days, on Tuesday April 29th, the Passau federal police were able to determine the identity of the suspect and, together with the Deggendorf criminal police, arrested him. He is a migrant of Syrian citizenship. The young man is now being investigated for attempted murder involving a dangerous interference in rail traffic.

    Muslim terrorism has nothing to do with Muslim terrorism.

      And one of the most pathetic aspects of these occurrences is judges presuming to lecture these Muslims on the nature of Islam.

        Agreed. It is both pathetic and dangerous.
        “The Koran is a book of peace”, said Mr. Justice Haddon-Cave. With zero training in Sharia law judges presume, as you say, to lecture on the nature of Islam.

          Michael Copeland,

          Mr. Justice Haddon-Cave should be asked if he thinks that Mein Kampf is also a “book of peace”.

          If not, why not?

        Grimly true, Anjuli.

    Well, derailing trains ain’t so bad compared to, say, setting wildfires in California during a dry spell. But England is a wet place, and an observant Moslem has got to make do with what’s available.

    The saddest thing is, you won`t get on the mainstream media. Such things go unnoticed by the public here in Germany.

    This is why all trains should still have cowcatchers.

    You are all showing your Islamophobia. The poor immigrant was only conducting an exercise in physics to see if a large train could be destroyed by a stone. It was a highly scientific Islamic endeavor. How dare you misunderstand the glory of our hard working scientists?

    These mad animals come up with the most diabolical and twisted of ways to mass murder.

    ”investigated for attempted murder”
    Of how many people? It is only too typical in the West to charge perps like this muslim for the number of people they kill and drop any charges of attempted murder. I won’t have to wait long before a muslim charged with 20 murders begs forgiveness before a judge because he only wanted to kill 10 people.

  11. OLD GUY says

    May 7, 2020 at 7:31 pm

    Why in the hell would you do something like that? Are Muslims that mentally challenged that killing is natural and they don’t care who they kill. Islam is just evil in its teachings, if you want to worship the devil islam is your ticket. Nothing short of a cult. Islam should not be considered a legit religion by any government or country.
