Austria: Muslim migrant attacks Jewish leader with baseball bat

Aug 25, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

The Qur’an depicts the Jews as inveterately evil and bent on destroying the well-being of the Muslims. The Jews in the Qur’an are called the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); they fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); they claim that Allah’s power is limited (5:64); they love to listen to lies (5:41); they disobey Allah and never observe his commands (5:13). They are disputing and quarreling (2:247); hiding the truth and misleading people (3:78); staging rebellion against the prophets and rejecting their guidance (2:55); being hypocritical (2:14, 2:44); giving preference to their own interests over the teachings of Muhammad (2:87); wishing evil for people and trying to mislead them (2:109); feeling pain when others are happy or fortunate (3:120); being arrogant about their being Allah’s beloved people (5:18); devouring people’s wealth by subterfuge (4:161); slandering the true religion and being cursed by Allah (4:46); killing the prophets (2:61); being merciless and heartless (2:74); never keeping their promises or fulfilling their words (2:100); being unrestrained in committing sins (5:79); being cowardly (59:13-14); being miserly (4:53); being transformed into apes and pigs for breaking the Sabbath (2:63-65; 5:59-60; 7:166); and more. They are under Allah’s curse (9:30), and Muslims should wage war against them and subjugate them under Islamic hegemony (9:29).

“Syrian refugee arrested for violent attack on Austrian Jewish leader,” by Benjamin Weinthal, Jerusalem Post, August 24, 2020:

The Austrian authorities apprehended a Syrian refugee on Sunday for allegedly attacking the leader of the Jewish community in the city of Graz.

According to a report in the mass circulation paper Kronen, police officers arrested the 26-year-old Syrian suspect in Graz. He had fled Syria six years ago; his name was not released.

The Jerusalem Post reported on Sunday that an assailant on Saturday attacked the president of the tiny Jewish community in Austria’s second largest city, with what is believed to have been a baseball bat.

When Elie Rosen, head of the 150-member Jewish community, left his car, he was attacked by the stranger with a wooden stick and managed to escape back into the car. The attacker hit Rosen’s vehicle with a bat before he fled.

The Graz synagogue was attacked twice over the past week. Last Wednesday, antisemitic pro-Palestinian graffiti was smeared on the building.

The slogan “Free Palestine” was written on the synagogue, a phrase that typically means the elimination of the Jewish state.

“In Graz, we are dealing with a stronger left wing and anti-Israel antisemitism,” he said. “We can clearly determine that.” The attack was not carried out by right-wing extremists, Rosen told the daily Wiener Zeitung.

It is unclear if the Syrian man is also being charged with defacing the synagogue….

    “The attack was not carried out by right-wing extremists.”, Rosen told the daily Wiener Zeitung.
    ————————————————————————————————————–
    Elie Rosen may not believe that he was attacked by a “right-wing extremist” – but that doesn’t mean that the “authorities” won’t categorise it that way in order to massage the figures and protect their pets.

    War may be deception, but surrender involves a lot of sleight of hand too….

    4 things that might be of interest to Jews in these difficult times

    1]If you are concerned about Israel you might read the Book Of Joel chapter 3
    This is actual prophecy that comes from YHWH.

    2]If you are a religiously observant Jew you have the following in common with Christians
    Chief Law #1 Deuteronomy 6:4-9{=matthew 22 v 37-38}
    Chief Law #2 Leviticus 19:18{=matthew 22 v 39}
    Exodus 20 Decalogue

    The 2 Chief Laws{=Law #1Deut 6:4-9+Law #2 Lev19:18} constitute “The WHOLE LAW of Moses and the teachings of the Prophets depend on these 2 chief Commandments”{Matt 22 v 40}
    The MEANING of the Law of Moses and the Teachings of the prophets are defined as being = “Do for others what you want them to do for you”{The Golden Rule}Matthew 7 v 12
    To the extent that a religiously observant Jew understands these foundation laws and their meaning,in terms of the Law given to mankind,a Jew is not really different to authentic christians.Besides,the Exodus 20 Decalogue are the same in Judaism AND Christianity

    Both the OT AND the NT have the SAME laws and the Golden Rule

    3}The allah of the koran is NOT the YHWH of the Bible.
    allah might be considered to be like baal in I Kings 18 v 21:Two paths are given,the way of YHWH or baal.
    allah CURSES Jews on a false premise koran 9:30
    islam has no Golden Rule,no concept of Deut6:4-9{Love of God} or Love of fellow human being{Lev 19:18
    The concept of being made in the spiritual image of God is MISSING in islam{Genesis 1;27}The koran classifies humanity into TWO{muslims,the BEST koran 3:110 and non muslims The WORST koran 98:6}

    4}Israel is the ancestral homeland of the Jews.
    Note that even the koran confirms that right koran 5:21-24

    5}regarding Justice for the Jews you must believe this:-

    YHWH is a God of Justice

    “I will avenge those who were killed.I not spare the guilty”
    Joel 3 v 20-21

    {because they attacked the Land of Judah and ‘killed its innocent people’}

    Ah, those supposedly desperate, peaceful, law-abiding, innocent Syrians we were all supposed to welcome into our countries in huge numbers back in 2015, and still are expected to – many entering Britain illegally on small boats from France as we speak.

    Could these be the same ‘peaceful’ Syrians, who, just a few years ago, set fire to the Norwegian and Danish embassies in Damascus in protest at the publication of newspaper cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad?
    Protesters scaled the Danish site amid chants of “God is great”, before moving on to attack the Norwegian mission.

    Yes they are. And leopards don’t change their spots. So why are our governments acting surprised when one like this in Austria indulges in violent, criminal behaviour?

    The reality is that the Syria they abandoned is a hellhole OF THEIR OWN MAKING, because of their inability and unwillingness to co-exist and behave like civilised beings. They are most not certainly our responsibility.

    The welcoming disposition of people at large in the Western Democracies will eventually end and there will then be a terrible price to pay.

    • gravenimage says

      Aug 25, 2020 at 9:23 pm

      Don’t you think that innocent people are paying a terrible price *now*?

      Clive, the idea that all is well until the ‘filthy Infidels’ supposedly get violent–which does not really happen–is much mistaken.

        gravenimage,

        I could be wrong, but I have a different take on Clive’s post.

        The “welcoming disposition” that the citizens of some Western countries have displayed in the past toward muslim migrants has changed in some of these countries. Perhaps too little, too late.

        And you are 100% correct, innocent native citizens of some Western countries are currently paying a terrible price.

        I think that Clive was anticipating that, in the future, it will be the muslim migrants who will then pay a “terrible price” due to a severe backlash…

        • gravenimage says

          Aug 26, 2020 at 9:08 pm

          I got that, James–that’s part of it. But the idea that Infidels are poised not to take reasoned measures against Jihad–restricting Muslim immigration, serious vetting, deporting Jihadists, specifically criminalizing Shari’ah, etc–but are apt to start behaving like violent Muslims any minute now is not just implausible, but, intended as such or not, is actually insulting.

    The attack on Eli Rosen, the president of the Jewish community of Graz, shows clearly that Allah and his beasts are rapidly gaining power across Europe: from Hammerfest to the Strait of Gibraltar. Nobody gets in their way. Fear of “racism and xenophobia” works for these primitive bloodthirsty people (or rather monsters) as an appetizer. They mainly target Jews, but also non-Jews are victims on a daily basis. See: https://www.acnmalta.org/2020/01/08/portugal-study-reveals-about-3000-attacks-on-christian-churches-and-symbols-in-europe-in-2019/ en https : //www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3390168/Migrant-rape-fears-spread-Europe-Women-told-not-night-assaults-carried-Sweden-Finland-Germany-Austria-Switzerland-amid -warnings-gangs-ordinating-attacks.html and https://www.jihadwatch.org/2020/08/uk-three-former-cops-investigated-over-inquiry-into-muslim-rape-gangs-that-failed -over-fear-of-racism-accusations? utm_source = newsletter & utm_medium = email & utm_campaign = the_2020_08_21_jihad_watch_daily_digest & utm_term = 2020-08-23 and https://www.politico.eu/article/brussels-attacks-terrorism-brussope-muslims- -airport-metro / There is a striking adage in Dutch: “a warned person counts for two”. The Jewish communities have been more than warned! They take frequently hard blows. The question is: why are they not adequately protecting themselves? Why don’t they lead a group of their strong young guys in combat sports? Even better question: Why are these young guys not sent to Israel during the summer holidays for training in self- and group defence, taught by commando experts? If Eli Rosen had a well-trained guy next to him, the Muslim hero would turn into a schnitzel; ready for delivery to the local police. But people who don’t take care of themselves would be hit again and again. Quitters are easy targets. Dogs and other animals also attack weak and frightened animals.

    As long as we are playing a political-correct nice game and turn a blind eye to reality, Jews and non-Jews will be a free pry for their enemies. By the way, It is the first time in history that people under threat are not allowed to call their enemies by name; otherwise the enemies will be very angry!!! Not all of them are bad; only a few.

    The attacks by islamic/muslims just goes on day after day. When will the west and christian world wake up?
    It seems to me that the longer we wait to stop the islamic attacks on the rest of the world the bloodier it will be. Islam is like a cancer it will continue to grow until we cut it out and kill it.

    The Qur’an depicts the Jews as inveterately evil and bent on destroying the well-being of the Muslims.

    If Islam keeps up this
    people of the world will take a stand
    and it could very will be the only truth in the Quran
    let’s hope the Islam has much thinking then what they have showen
