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

UK: Muslim migrant attempts to modify drone to be used in jihad massacre of troops or police

Aug 2, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

“Muhammad, who was, by all accounts a very polite man, was focusing on what he considered to be his obligation as a Muslim to act and to please his notion of his God by conducting an attack.”

Well, at least he was polite. But where did he get the idea that he had an obligation as a Muslim to kill people? No one in Britain seems remotely curious about that.

“Isis supporter ‘worked on modifying drone for use in UK terror attack,’” by Lizzie Dearden, Independent, July 28, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

An Isis supporter attempted to remodel a drone to be used in a terror attack against the British armed forces or police, a court has heard.

Hisham Muhammad, 26, allegedly built a “release mechanism” for a commercial drone while researching other methods including knife attacks.

The Old Bailey heard that police found a “variety of bladed articles”, components, drawings, notes, camouflage clothing and masks at his home in Bury, Greater Manchester.

Muhammad allegedly possessed weapons including a tomahawk, machete, “bear claws” and two axes, and had practiced stabbing movements on cardboard boxes and clothing.

The defendant, who moved to the UK in 2013, is also accused of creating “ninja eggs” containing chilli and glass shards that could be used to “incapacitate or otherwise weaken” attack victims or emergency service responders.

Opening the prosecution case on Tuesday, Anne Whyte QC said: “Muhammad, who was, by all accounts a very polite man, was focusing on what he considered to be his obligation as a Muslim to act and to please his notion of his God by conducting an attack.”

She told a jury that he had downloaded extremist material that “glorified violence and martyrdom”, including Isis propaganda….

The court heard that in May 2018, Muhammad expressed a “false interest” in joining the British army in order to visit the Castle Armoury Barracks in Bury and that he had also searched military and armed police bases online….

    Again, the left do not broadcast or print the truth to inform the audience of great Britain what they should be hearing – that we are housing & taking in more each day – illegals who are here to desicrate us from within. The hotels are full of people on mobile phones & smoking cigarettes, being fed & waterd. Whilst the working poor like myself struggle and pay tax for these criminals who may go on to rape and kill. It really is abhorrent. Just no words to describe it. The UK needs a Donald Trump. Who will stand against these leftards?

      “The UK needs a Donald Trump.”

      YES!

      But…

      Trump supporters in the United States are very concerned about the upcoming November presidential election.

      The Democrats are pulling every dirty trick in the book to get Biden in…

    At this point, a Muslim opening fire on British police would be like a farmer opening fire on his own sheep.

    He will be found Not Guilty on grounds of “Dhimminished responsibility”.
    The British police, and the courts, long since surrendered to the Invaders.

      I like that expression Crusader. They want to dhimminish the world, don’t they?

    Notice how Anne Whyte QC, prosecuting, is careful to distance Hisham Muhammad from Islam.
    She speaks of “what he considered to be his obligation as a Muslim”, and “his notion of his God”, thereby creating maximum room for everyone to think he has misunderstood his peaceful religion.

    The training of a QC, Queen’s Counsel, a senior lawyer, does not include any Sharia Law.
    Just possibly she uses these distancing phrases to fit in with the judge’s view of Islam. It seems quite likely, though, that Anne Whyte QC shares just the same lamentable shortcomings as other senior lawyers and judges.

    Hisham Muhammad considered killing to be his obligation as a Muslim because that is what his source texts (all part of Islamic law) INSTRUCT him to do. This appears to be unknown to English lawyers and judges.

    For quite a long time we have had thousands of members of the British public operating small flying machines like drones or, for decades before that, remote control model aircraft, and hardly has there been even a hint of criminal, malicious or destructive intent. Until now, apparently..

    Before 1939 and from the end of WW2 (after Hitler’s activities had been stopped) it was safe to go on public transport in London without fear of being maimed or blown to pieces – until 7/7/2005, that is.

    Likewise, you could go to concerts or walk around major cities in the UK with little fear of being blown up, deliberately mown down by a motor vehicle or attacked with a machete – until the last couple of decades.

    Young British girls had a fairly cast-iron guarantee of being safe from being systematically dragged into hideously perverted criminal exploitation – until about 40 years ago, that is.

    And we could usually guarantee that business owners would respect the hard-won legal rights of their employees without turning the backstreets of our cities into third-world dens of exploitation and that animals would be treated with at least a modicum of consideration and respect. Not any more, apparently.

    And the common denominator in all of this? Specimans like Hisham Muhammad, who have ‘enriched’ the life of the UK ever since they started inviting themselves here for ‘a better life’ – for themselves, one presumes – because most other people whose families have been on these islands for maybe a thousand years or more seem to think they’ve simply turned the place into a cesspit.

    This is really odd.
    The Brit police can find some dweeb planning a misdirected, ill planned attack, working in secret in his own home.
    But can’t locate a publicly know rape gang made up of hundreds of offenders, operating in full view for decades?
    Me thinks this is a smoke and mirrors job. “LOOK, SEE, WE ARE STOPPING TERRORISTS” rape gangs? what rape gangs? don’t know what your talking about, saying there are muslim rape gangs is Islamophobic.

    Another pious Muslim migrant. Let’s let more in! As Robert Spencer says, what could possibly go wrong? sarc/off

      I’m very much in favour of a good upbringing and believe that, in part, “manners maketh the man”. However, in “polite” Mohammed’s case, I’ll make an exception, given what he said, did and promoted as “ideal behaviour.”

    “But where did he get the idea that he had an obligation as a Muslim to kill people? No one in Britain seems remotely curious about that.”

    I live in the UK and I’m not curious about that – because I already know the answer, perfectly well, largely thanks to Robert Spencer and his colleagues. I notice that the “Independent” journalist showed no interest into Hisham Muhammad’s country of origin or why he “moved” to the UK. Traditionally, people have migrated in search of a better life, but muslims, more or less uniquely, want to replicate every aspect of their native lands, wherever they settle, however awful their previous life has been. Iraqis and Syrians just about always bring their own wars with them and, as Philip Larkin might have put it, “Add some extra, just for you.”

    I’m hoping that prosecution woman was being sardonic when she described the Paedophile Prophet as being ‘very polite.’

    ‘The defendant, who moved to the UK in 2013…’ – Makes it sound like he gave up his job in consultancy in Switzerland in search of more opportunities at Lloyds of London.

    Just exactly how did he ‘move’ to Britain? In the back of a Lidl truck or a rubber dinghy from Calais?

    • gravenimage says

      Aug 3, 2020 at 9:13 pm

      Badger, Anne Whyte wasn’t referring to the “Prophet”, but to defendant Jihadist Hisham Muhammad.

      Of course, this is just about as ridiculous, How “polite” is plotting to massacre innocent people?
