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

Austria: 30 Muslims arrested for ties to Hamas and Muslim Brotherhood, 70 under investigation for jihad terror ties

Nov 11, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer 10 Comments

If Muslims with ties to Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood were arrested in the United States, the top leadership of some of the principal Muslim groups in the country would be cleared out. Skeptical? See here and here, and that’s just a small part of the available evidence.

“‘A strike against breeding ground for extremism’: Austrian police arrest 30 people with suspected links to Islamist groups,” RT, November 9, 2020;

The Austrian authorities have conducted sweeping raids across the country against people with suspected ties to extremist groups. The operation took place a week after a deadly terrorist attack in Vienna.

As part of the action, dubbed Operation Ramses, police searched 60 apartments, houses, and businesses early on Monday morning. The raids were carried out in Vienna and the regions of Styria, Carinthia, and Lower Austria.

The authorities have arrested 30 people with suspected links to the Islamist groups Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood. According to the prosecutor’s office in the city of Graz, more than 70 suspects are being investigated for possible ties to terrorist organizations.

“We have succeeded in striking against the breeding ground for extremism,” Interior Minister Karl Nehammer told reporters after the raids.

Integration Minister Susanne Raab said the action against the Muslim Brotherhood was aimed at preventing “the spread of extremist ideas in Austria,” and showed that the country is “serious about the fight against radical, extremist ideologies.” 

The prosecutor’s office clarified that Monday’s raids had “no connection” with the terrorist attack in Vienna last week….

    Please, how many people reading here consider terrorism to be extreme and how many understand it is a normal, routine, standard, orthodox part of islam?

      Indeed. Austria says it is “serious about the fight against radical, extremist ideologies.”
      Austria cannot explain the difference between them and Islam. Why not? There is none.

    Finally, the Austrians get it. Islam is an expansionist, imperial death cult using deception and violence to take over Austria. To do nothing to stop jihad is to submit to Islamic supremacism.

    Austria should create a secret government program to defeat Islam ideologically … as should all Western countries. Islam will continue to expand if we do nothing.

    This and much more should’ve been done long ago. Let’s hope other countries will see the wisdom in this and follow suit. Booting out CAIR and the plague of jihadists can’t come soon enough.

    And yet our compromised government refuses to designate the Muslims Brotherhood as the terrorist organization that it is.

    Nobody was screaming against the arrest of the Bader Meinhof Gang or The Red Army Faction all those years ago in Europe but today if the same islamic terrorists are rounded up they cry of racism appears out of nowhere.
    The Red Army Faction were terrorists, The IRA were terrorists,The PLO were terrorists, all cowards using the death of people they didnt know to further their own beliefs and that does not convince people you are the good guys.

    Open borders brings some of the worst into your country. Smart people choose who they allow into their homes and lock out those they don’t trust or know are a danger. A country needs to do the same, or you are allowing the enemy to infiltrate through a migration invasion. Our governments job is to protect our current citizens and our children NOT future migrants from other countries.
