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….
“Man ‘Shouting Allahu Akbar’ Causes Motorway Accidents in Berlin in ‘Islamist Act’, Prosecutors Say,” Sputnik News, August 19, 2020:
Earlier in the day, authorities in Berlin stated that a city highway was shut down after a series of crashes the previous night that were all caused by one man.
German prosecutors on Wednesday described the incident in which a man caused a series of motorway accidents that left six people injured, as an “Islamist act”.
“Islamist motivation according to our current knowledge”, AFP reported, citing the prosecutors.
Meanwhile, local media outlets have described the perpetrator as a 30-year-old Iraqi who shouted “Allahu Akbar” when getting out of his car during the time of the incident.
The man then put a box on the roof of his car saying that it had explosives inside. Police, however, later said that the box only contained tools.
Three of the victims were injured severely in the incident, while traffic on one of Berlin’s main transport arteries was closed leading to long traffic jams.

So the German journalists and editors are now permitted to say ‘ISLAMIST ACT’, but they still may not call it what it is: ‘JIHAD’. The are one baby step closer to telling the truth.
But when will German journalists come clean and start reflecting the reality of jihad, without trying to disguise the inherent violence of Islam?
There are, after all, 164 JIHAD verses in the Koran … it is not an ACCIDENT or an ABERRATION that Muslims conduct SELF-DIRECTED jihads like this one.
Journalists and editors have a duty to learn more about jihad, since it is DAILY in the news.
Message to journalists: LEARN SOMETHING ABOUT JIHAD. STOP BEING PROFESSIONALLY NEGLIGENT.

The left will pass this off as a road crash without looking at the background of hate and attempted murder.
Peter Buckley says
Brilliant. Three “severley injured” (but not dead-another failed jihad) infidels, and another shed load of muslims leave Islam in shame.
According to its own figures, Open Doors ,an organisation often quoted by RS, was trying to help some six and a half thousand converts in Germany.
https://www.opendoors.de/sites/default/files/Open_Doors_2019_Protecting_Converts_against_Deportation_where_Christians_are_persecuted_certified.pdf
These were just the converts who were known to Open Doors, and it is reasonable to assume the figure is much higher. Also, I can’t see any date on the document, but again, the figure will be higher since these conversions are now quite commonplace.
Still. Germany’s “doomed”, according to many on JW.
LOL…..
Rob R (Brit stuck in Britainistan) says
In painfully politically correct countries such as Germany, people are all required to pretend these things don’t happen.. so… what does a victim say to his/her family when they ask why they’re in hospital?
“A magical fairy broke my leg”? etc..?

Shortly before the crime, the Berlin car jihadist posted a photo showing the terror car on Facebook
He shouted “Allahu Akbar” and threatened with a bomb, shortly after he hit several motorcyclists on the Berlin city motorway A100. Shortly before the crime, he posted comments about the crime on Facebook.
It is Tuesday evening, 6.35 pm, when Sarmad A. (30 years old) starts his terror attack on the Berlin city motorway. Six people are injured, one person suffers an artificial coma on Wednesday. The offender was arrested.
Two hours before his first collision, he showed up on Facebook wearing a red shirt and the Opel car with which he committed the attack shortly afterwards.
He also wore the red shirt on the Facebook photo when he was arrested. He also posted religious slogans.
The 30-year-old Iraqi came to Germany as an asylum seeker. After his asylum application was rejected, he is living in Berlin on a toleration order, the German Press Agency learned from Senate circles on Wednesday.
According to the agency, it was not yet clear when he came to Germany. According to photos from his Facebook profile, he was already in Berlin in 2016 at least. Until autumn 2019, he had been accommodated in a shared accommodation in the Altglienicke district. After that, he moved into an apartment in the Reinickendorf district, where he will most likely live together with his brother.A. is said to have at least had contact with an Islamist known as a threat, the newspaper B.Z. learned from security circles. According to the public prosecutor’s office, there were also indications of psychological problems. So far, no indications of membership in a terrorist organization could be detected. According to the newspaper “Tagesspiegel”, however, A. is to be assigned to the group of ISIS.
After the presumed Islamist attack, the Federal Prosecutor’s Office responsible for terrorism keeps itself informed of all developments. “We are in constant close contact with the investigating authorities in Berlin,” said a spokesperson in Karlsruhe on Wednesday in response to a request.
The Attorney General would be responsible if connections of the man to a terrorist organization were to be revealed.Martin Steltner, spokesman for the Berlin Public Prosecutor General’s Office, spoke at a press conference on Wednesday afternoon of “targeted attacks” on motorcyclists whom A. had literally “hunted down”. He said that a religious Islamic background was assumed. The social environment of the 30-year-old must now be clarified. He also confirmed indications of psychological instability.When asked by the newspaper B.Z., he did not mention a possible connection of the 30-year-old with the Islamist milieu, but said that “every stone would be turned over”.”Based on the current state of knowledge, we believe the attack to be Islamist. A religiously motivated background to the crime cannot be ruled out,” Geisel said on Wednesday. The crashes had been deliberately caused. “The fact that the suspect may have suffered from psychological problems does not make things easier. If personal problems mix with religiously charged ideas, this can lead to uncontrollable actions.”
Geisel further explained: “If a car deliberately hits motorcyclists, the latter have no chance.” He said that innocent people “fell victim to a crime out of nowhere”. Among the three seriously injured was a fireman on his way home. “Yesterday’s events show us very painfully how vulnerable our free society is.” Berlin, he said, “continues to be the focus of Islamist terrorism”.
On Wednesday, A. is scheduled to be brought before a judge for attempted murder.

As expected, the judge decided not to imprison the suspect. He sent him to a Clinic for Psychiatry.

Walter Sieruk says
The title of this article has the word “Islamist” in it The words “Islamist ” and “Islamism” are a fake words that were was made up after September 11, 2001 in order offend or upset non-violent Muslims. The real, actual, word is just “Islam.” Likewise, the word “Islamist” is also a bogus word that was made up after 9/11 in order not to offend or upset peaceful Muslims. To keep with reality, terms should better be used as “Islamic terrorist” or “Muslim terrorist” . Let’s call people and thing as the really are.
Likewise ,the terms “Radical Muslim” and “Islamic extremist” is actually a misuse of terms. “Moderate Muslim” are actually Western term and not that well known in the Islamic Middle East. This is because what In the Islamic mindset in the Muslim Middle East as well as in Indonesia and other Muslim controlled countries what the non-Muslims of the Western nations view as “radical and “extremist” the Muslims of those places in the world see as “Normal” and even Devout and committed to the Cause of Islam”.
Furthermore, those “Moderate Muslims” are those of the Islamic worldview and non-devout and non –committed Muslims. The violent jihadists even see them as “hypocrites.” Therefore, this explains the jihadist chant of those jihad-minded Muslims in different Islamic terror organizations. When they chant out loud “Death to infidels and hypocrites.” Meaning Death to people who and not Muslims and people who are non- jihadist Muslims.
Concerning the last part of this above essay, the violent spirit of that vicious jihadist chant “Death to infidels and hypocrites.” The later word of the chant “hypocrites” in the jihad –minded Muslim worldview is further explain in the book titled JIHADIST PSYCHOPATH by Jamie Glazov , for on page 42 the reader is informed that “Islam mandates that devout and real Muslims must punish , and in some circumstances kill, those Muslims whom they regard as neither legitimate nor properly devout.”

Thousands of good luck wishes and blessings for the Berlin car jihadist on Facebook
The Berlin lawyer Seyran Ates has done some research in the social environment of yesterday’s ” single offender “. There seems to be a lot of the latter. Ates has good reasons for her scepticism towards this kind of culprit and also towards their notorious trivialisation here in Europe. Years ago, she herself was victim of an attack, she was shot in the neck, her companion was killed. She is the target of a fatwa of the Cairo Al Azhar University, with whose Grand Sheikh Al Tayyeb Angela Merkel was blissfully seen at the Protestant Church Congress in 2017, Ates lives under personal protection and under constant danger to her life, she reports the following on Twitter:
Underneath the photo of himself and the crime vehicle, which the alleged A100 attacker of #Berlin posted on Facebook two hours prior to the crime, there were numerous good luck and blessing wishes.
If I were the State Security, I would investigate this now.

At least they admit that this was an “Islamist act”–but it doesn’t seem to have helped…

Is it my imagination or have I seen this motorway before? I’m sure I’ve seen this place occupied with fires lit on the road?

“a crime out of nowhere”, said Geisel.
Not so. It is a crime directly out of the Koran. Islam INSTRUCTS murder of non-muslims.

Yelling Allahu Akbar near me will result in your upcoming meeting with Allah. Just yelling phrase is an omen of bad things coming your way.

This site is full of arrogance and ignorance and hatred towards muslims. You take things out of context and have no understanding of the correct purpose of about Islam correctly. Your a twisted soul.
gravenimage says
How is opposing a Muslim trying to murder people on a motorway “hatred”? How is noting that he did it in the name of his violent faith incorrect?
In what *possible* context would this be a good thing? Note that “Rob” here does not say.
He also does not say in what way noting this is “ignorant”–it is instead quite the opposite. As for “arrogance”, this is how pious Muslims categorize *any* criticism of the horrors of Islam. Under Shari’ah, no criticism of Islam is allowed, and those who do so may be arrested, imprisoned, flogged, and even murdered.
Does “Rob” actually have any problem with his devout coreligionists murdering innocent Infidels? Not so he says–*very* telling*.
