The motive couldn’t be clearer. Vehicular attacks are a common jihad tactic. But as we know, the political and media elites are impervious to the evidence before their eyes.
“The rampage makes it clear: Linz has a problem with radical Islamists!,” translated from “Amokfahrt verdeutlicht: Linz hat ein Problem mit radikalen Islamisten!,” Wochenblick, June 4, 2021 (thanks to Medforth):
How omnipresent the danger is from people who have been radicalized by merciless hate preachers was impressively demonstrated on Wednesday in Linz. Waving a Koran, a fanatical Bosnian (26) dragged a police officer over 50 meters with his vehicle. While the Freedom Party is calling for alleged Islamists to be deported, leftists continue to be outraged about the latest map of Islam.
It was a Wild West scene with an oriental touch that took place in the heart of Linz. The problem of a still escalating speeding scene, the protagonists of which more and more often have a migration background, apparently combined with the offended religious feelings of a radically-minded man. According to the media, he was sitting behind the wheel in “strictly religious” clothing and had already rammed several police cars at extremely high speeds.
The native Bosnian is said to have lived in Saudi Arabia for four years and studied religion there. Because the motive is unclear, the Office for the Protection of the Constitution is investigating the incident. The worrying thing is, of course, the open question of whether the man was connected to the Islamist scene in Linz. City Councilor for Security Michael Raml (FPÖ) demanded after the incident that alleged Islamists “consistently have their residence status” withdrawn.
Interior Minister Nehammer (ÖVP) and Justice Minister Zadic (Greens) are also obliged to act. This should not be done through symbolic politics: “By acting, I do not mean replacing the term ‘political Islam’ with ‘religiously motivated extremism,’ but tackling and deporting those who refuse to integrate and criminals from Austria,” said Raml firmly.
“Fight against political Islam” only symbolic politics of the ÖVP
Speaking of Nehammer and Islamists: after the bloody terrorist attack by an Islamist in Vienna last November, the Upper Austrian member of the National Council Susanne Fürst (FPÖ) put a parliamentary question to the Minister of the Interior, asking how many Islamists there were in Linz overall.
But the latter once again put forward “essential external and internal security interests,” and failed to provide any specific information. And that despite the fact that there were arrests in Linz after the attack. It wasn’t the only time that Nehammer evaded unpleasant questions about the Vienna terror …
The “Documentation Center for Political Islam,” which was funded by Integration Minister Susanne Raab (ÖVP) with a budget of 500,000 euros, could have shed a little more light into the darkness. However, even after the presentation of the “Islam map,” some questions remained unanswered. Because this is an outdated and incomplete map.
In the case of many problematic institutions, their links to radical Islamists are not even noted.
“Of course” it is working on an independent map of Islam
In order to make these visible, the Graz “Freilich-Magazin” wants to develop its own, independent – and above all more complete – Islam map, in cooperation with “Islamist hunter” Irfan Peci and other renowned Islamism experts. In the process, those responsible are also appealing to readers to support them in the implementation, as the “Tagesstimme,” which belongs to the “Freilich” media house, reported on Friday. Especially in the case of problematic institutions, the necessary information would be missing.
Peci also justified this move with the fact that the ÖVP would be careful not to “expose itself again to massive pressure from the left and Muslims” after the uproar over the map. The Muslim Youth Austria (MJÖ) wants to sue the project; Minister Raab and Islam researcher Ednan Aslan received wild threats from relevant circles. Left-wing politicians and journalists got excited on social media and vehemently demanded that the project be taken offline immediately.
Activists warned against radical mosque associations
This actually happened – at least with regard to the search function – from Wednesday to Thursday night. The official reason is now that the threats forced people to change IT providers. The original announcement on the homepage left the interpretation open that rather a right-wing activist group should be given the blame for the break on the page.
Because the night before, so far unknown persons had hung up yellow warning signs near five institutions in Vienna known to be Islamist associations, with the inscription “Attention: Political Islam in your neighborhood.” According to the information available so far, the action was limited exclusively to institutions actually suspected of radicalism. One day later, similar actions followed in St. Pölten and Linz.
In our provincial capital, the right-wing activists targeted three radical mosques with their protest action, with which, according to their own statements, they want to inform the population about the Islamist danger and aim to close down all “Islamist meetings.” One of the institutions is the “Avrasya” association, whose rumored closeness to the “Grey Wolves” once caused Mayor Klaus Luger, who had contacts with the association, to have to explain himself.
Not only the comrades, but also the Austrian People’s Party (ÖVP) has long been in dire need of explanation in Linz. As the weekly newspaper Wochenblick reported, the city’s Austrian People’s Party (ÖVP) recently had no reservations about the ALIF association on the occasion of a “Diversity Week.” This association is said to be close to the radical Islamic “Milli Görüs” movement. The latter information is missing from the incomplete map presented by Raab.

It the attacker was waiving a Koran while he was committing his crime I would say that’s one big clue to his motive. It’s like he’s saying, “Read this book and you will know why I am doing this.” The problem is that too many people think they know what is in the book without actually reading the book. However, it does take quite a bit of work to read it and it takes even more work to understand it because its “chapters” have been arranged out of order. Until people want to face up to that we will keep hearing proclamations that nobody can figure out the motive behind these “crazy” attacks. It’s just willful ignorance on the part of our leaders.

Did Inspector Clouseau send all of his offspring to Austria to become police inspectors there? No?
Well, the MOTIVE of jihad attacks is this: Allah HATES the kafirs and he wants Muslims to hate them as well.
-Imam Abdul-Latif ibn Abdur-Rahman Rahimullah said, “It is not possible for someone to realize Tawheed (Islamic faith) and act upon it, and yet not be HOSTILE against the mushrikeen (i.e. wrong worshippers). So anyone who isn’t HOSTILE against the mushrikeen, then it cannot be said that he acts upon Tawheed nor that he realizes it.” [ad-Durar as-Saniyyah 8/167]
– “The Muslim should regard the Kuffaar as ENEMIES and HATE them because of their kufr (wrong belief), just as he hates their kufr (disbelief) itself.” – from Umar Sulayman ‘Abd-Allaah al-Ashqar, “Belief in Allah”
-“The doctrine of al Walaa wal Baraa is the REAL IMAGE for the actual practice of this faith.” – source “Al Walaa wal Baraa According to the Aqeedah of the Salaf”, by Sheikh Muhammad Saeed al Qatani, authoritative Saudi Sharia lawyer and imam at the Abu Bakr and Al Furqan Mosques in Mecca.

Yep–so much for the idea of destitute refugees.

They must have their politically correct religious blinder on . Its very obvious what that Muslim motive was.

This is precisely why Austria needs those ‘Map of Islam’ being discussed here yesterday

As the very wise Frank Anderson often says,
“Deliberate ignorance constitutes knowledge of the truth”

Frank is quite right, James. Although a lot of these people are also lying to themselves.
Note that I don’t want to see *anyone* terrorized by Jihadists–but how would these fools react if some Muslim started screaming “Allahu Akbar!”? They’d run for the exits or dive under a table, despite their claims that there is nothing concerning about Islam.

“how would these fools react if some Muslim started screaming “Allahu Akbar!”?”
That very experiment should be done at the next meeting of the Democratic National Committee.
Guaranteed, Leftists, and muslims / muslim apologists would be the first to dive or run…
Infidel says
James, that sounds like a fun experiment. Have someone – preferably w/ an islamic looking beard – who’s actually anti-Islamic go there unarmed, scream allahu akbar in the middle of someone’s speech, and send them into panic mode. And after the event, when the guy is rounded up and charged, accuse the DNC of being islamophobic ?

Motive unclear? If our political leaders around the world keep sticking their heads in the sand we will all get are asses kicked by the muslim/islamic world domination that islam is trying to accomplish. All you have to do is take a little time to look at what islam is doing right now around the world. As their migration invasion of non-islamic countries takes place the murder and violence against non-islamic people increase un- checked by the local political structure and police.
Open borders and defund the police is a great invitation to the hate America islamic jihadist.
John Lloyd Scharf says
Did he intend to entertain the polizei? “Motive unclear?” Then charge him with operating a ride without a license.
Andrew Blackadder says
There can be no stranger alliance than Western people who are Of The Left and the teachings in islam, as those Of The Left will be thrown off the rooftop, right after the Gays, when islam finally takes over The West,which will happen, and there appears to be no doubt that, as the current Western Leaders are doing all they can to implement it, for the sake of diversity.
However I may not be alive when this comes to pass, and anyways right now I live among a civilized people in SE Asia who dont let the very small islamic community in this country to say much at all.
They stay silent as they are too small, but we all know what happens when they become larger.
