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

Austria: ‘Devout’ Muslim teen with ties to Islamic State arrested as possible accomplice in Vienna jihad massacre

Nov 12, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 6 Comments

Against Istiaque A., the child of Muslim migrants, “a terrorist charge was brought before the regional court at the beginning of October. In it, he is accused of having been active for the radical Islamist terrorist militia Islamic State since March 2018 and of supporting the later assassin,” that is, Vienna jihad murderer Kujtim Fezjulai, “in his plans to travel to Syria, where he wanted to join IS.”

Youth radicalization is a pressing issue worldwide. The zeal of these youths compounds the threat that they pose.

Implementing the surveillance of mosques and Islamic schools is a possible way to start tackling problems of jihad indoctrination and recruitment, but the fear of being called “Islamophobic” and “racist” is crippling, and enables the spread of the jihad ideology on many fronts.

“Suspect under terrorism charges,” translated from “Verdächtiger unter Anklage nach Terror-Paragraf,” Kronen Zeitung, November 9, 2020:

Further details have now come to light about the suspect who was taken into custody as a possible accomplice or aid in the terrorist attack in downtown Vienna. As reported previously, at the time of the bloodbath he already had charges of terrorist activity, as the spokeswoman for the regional court for criminal matters, Christina Salzborn, has now also confirmed. The 18-year-old is said to have spread Islamist propaganda material and encouraged the later assassin Kujtim F. (20) in his travel plans.

Against the suspect – he is 18 years old, his parents come from Bangladesh, before his arrest he is said to have been externally recognizable as a devout Muslim due to his clothing and beard – a terrorist charge was brought before the regional court at the beginning of October. In it, he is accused of having been active for the radical Islamist terrorist militia Islamic State since March 2018 and of supporting the later assassin in his plans to travel to Syria, where he wanted to join IS. Whether and to what extent he was involved in the attack in Vienna is still under investigation.

Also supposed to have spread propaganda material

In this regard, the 18-year-old is charged with a “psychological contribution”. He is said to have encouraged the two-years-older IS sympathizer in chats to put his Syria plans into action. In addition, the 18-year-old is chalked up for the dissemination of IS propaganda material and Nashids – propaganda and battle songs for violent jihad against the so-called infidels.

The assassin’s intention to fight for IS in Syria came to nothing in autumn 2018, because he was picked up by the authorities in Turkey, arrested and sent back to Vienna. At the local regional court in April 2019, he was convicted of terrorist association together with a 22-year-old religious brother – who, however, had not tried to get to Syria at the side of the younger boy. Rather, the two had planned to act as “religious warriors” in Afghanistan, which also failed.

The present indictment against the 18-year-old alleged Islamist is already legally in force. There is no hearing date yet.

    The more devout they are outwardly, the more the danger they pose to all in their effort to take out the dross of the world. Is no wonder that in Islam the basest in man is promoted as living virtue over the debased nature.

    Now is a dangerous time for REAL SCHOLARS to speak and NOT be destroyed by the socialists,communists,leftists in SOCIAL MEDIA.

    If a UNIVERSITY PROFESSOR writes a PEER-REVIEWED

    ( that means it has been analyzed by scholars with a PHD,a DOCTORATE, in that SPECIFIC subject,and APPROVED as erudite/scholarly)

    that goes CONTRARY to what is Approved by the Left:

    she/he is Usually Hounded in Facebook,Twitter,Instagram and is FIRED.

    A SOLUTION: The JOURNAL of CONTROVERSIAL IDEAS

    A. It is a Peer-Reviewed Academic Journal that aims to allow academics to publish using a PSEUDONYM.

    B.That way scholars will NOT LOSE their jobs.

    C.Created in 2018 by STEVE PINKER and DR FRANCESCA MINERVA (Italian,Phd, BIOETHICIST)

    CONTRADICTIONS

    I agree with Minerva in that idea,even though she is CRAZY in her LEFTIST opinions.For example,on TWITTER ( SEP 3,2019 ) she said:

    https://twitter.com/FranciMinerva/status/1168945355783884804

    “It doesn’t happen very often, but today we have good news from Italian politics.

    We got rid of the right-wing,

    anti-immigration, anti-southern Italy government and

    replaced it with a more leftist and morally decent one.”

    CONTROVERSIAL INDEED

    DR FRANCESCA MINERVA is FAMOUS for a 2012 article in the JOURNAL of MEDICAL ETHICS

    entitled:”AFTER-BIRTH ABORTION: WHY should the BABY LIVE?”

    There she said one should be allowed to KILL babies who are born:

    1.For ECONOMIC reasons,if the mother thinks it is too expensive.

    2.And those who are HANDICAPPED

    THE ABSTRACT

    In the INTRO(abstract) to her article she wrote:

    “Abstract

    Abortion is largely accepted even for reasons that do not have anything to do with the fetus’ health.

    By showing that (1) both FETUSES and NEWBORNS do NOT

    have the SAME MORAL STATUS as ACTUAL PERSONS,

    (2) the fact that both are POTENTIAL PERSONS is MORALLY IRRELEVANT and

    (3) adoption is not always in the best interest of actual people, the authors argue that what we call ‘after-birth abortion’ (killing a newborn)

    should be PERMISSIBLE in ALL the CASES where abortion is, including cases where the newborn is not disabled.”

    https://jme.bmj.com/content/39/5/261

    LIKE IT WAS BEFORE

    In ANTIQUITY, the GREEKS and ROMANS widely practiced INFANTICIDE, leaving a baby in the countryside to die ( unless it was RESCUED by a FEMALE WOLF,like in the story of ROMULUS and REMUS).

    There is much talk about rooting out the ideology of Islamic terrorism. What is not mentioned is that the foundation of this type of terrorism is the theology of Islam’s “holy book” the Quran. For the Quran instructs in the use of violence and killing for the advancement of Islam. As found in, for example, 2:191. 5:33. 9:5, 111.123. 47:4. Therefore Islam is a false ,dangerous and deadly religion.

    I notice no mention is made of who his instructors are at the local barracks, I mean mosque!
    To deal with these idiots, the evil bastards who are teaching them that killing innocent people is “Allah’s will” need to be found and stopped.
    Arresting uneducated fools with an IQ smaller than their shoe size will not prevent future attacks.
    Find the Mullahs who are responsible for teaching this violence, deport them or jail them for life, close the mosques. Austria is taking baby steps in this direction.
