You better forget about this whole incident and celebrate diversity enthusiastically, or you will be ruined as a “racist” and an “Islamophobe.”
“Salzburg: Somali knife pyromaniac shot by police officers,” translated from “Salzburg: Somalischer Messer-Pyromane von Polizisten angeschossen,” Exxpress, January 17, 2022 (thanks to Medforth):
In Salzburg’s Liefering district, police officers stopped a dangerous Somali man by shooting him after the alleged firebug first started a fire and then attacked people in the burning house and also the police officers with a knife. Several people, including the alleged perpetrator, were injured.
In Salzburg, the professional fire brigade was alerted to a room fire in Aribonenstraße shortly after 4 a.m. after flames broke out on the third floor of a residential building. A large number of firefighters were able to extinguish the fire and evacuate a total of 30 residents of the house. Seven people had to be brought to safety using a turntable ladder. The evacuated people were temporarily accommodated in a nearby hotel and were cared for by the Salzburg Red Cross. Three people had to be taken to the LKH Salzburg, two of whom suffered smoke inhalation, “Salzburg 24” reports.
According to the fire brigade, the fire led to heavy smoke development, the apartment in which the fire broke out was completely destroyed. The cause of the fire was not known at the time the fire was extinguished, but in the course of initial police investigations, arson was quickly suspected – not least because a knife crime crime took place at exactly the same time.
Because while the fire brigade was being informed about the fire, the police received further emergency calls that a person with a knife had run out of the exact same apartment building where the fire was blazing, threatening residents and passers-by. The suspect also attacked a caller with a knife for no apparent reason, but without injuring him. The perpetrator then fled.
During the immediate search, a police patrol stopped the suspect in the area of the street Linke Glanzeile. However, the perpetrator did not follow the police instructions and attacked the police officers with a knife, according to a police statement. In order to stop the attack, the police officers fired three shots, according to current information. The perpetrator was injured to an unspecified extent in the area of the thigh. After initial treatment, he was temporarily arrested and taken to Salzburg University Hospital.

this has become daily life in europe where the immigrants are increasing and the immigrant friendly policies are still in place in most countries..
today here a somali, of which there is so many since turkey flew thousants of them into turkey and on to the borders, tried to steal a car going in a rampage that left the car owner almost dead, or dying in the following days and two more people injured causing damages everywhere and terrorizing the city….
violent crimes are daily as others got robbed and raped yesterday in other part of the country…
at the same time the eu is trying to appease turkey that is flooding most the immigrants in with funding, invstments and loans to the problematic turkish economy to preserve it….
gregbeetham says
Sounds like he might have mental issues.
Eleanor says
Yep, mentally ill and motive unknown.

So we are likely to hear…
Wellington says
Nothing to do with Islam of course.
Man, isn’t this line gettin’ old?
Unfortunately, for Leftists as well as the lazy and apathetic ignorant portion in the West, this line is not gettin’ old.
Conclusion: Islam’s greatest allies remain lazy and apathetic dhimmis buttressed by Leftist Western Leftists aplenty who stupidly hate the very West which has provided the liberties they enjoy, something Islam in charge all along would never have done.
Islam = evil. Modern Western Leftism = idiocy. Wishy-washy moderateness = foolhardiness.
Infidel says
At this point, ain’t it time for every country to round up their Somalian refugees, cancel their visas/citizenships and put them on the next however many flights to Mogadishu?
And repeat that same experiment for Kabul, Lahore, Dhaka, Rabat, Ramallah and wherever else they came from
Rufolino says
You suggest “deportations” ? You will be instantly excoriated as a Far-Right Neo-Nazi Extremist and accused of racism. Because deportation is probably the only realistic solution, and because such a policy will never get grass-roots approval, Europe is now trapped.
Phil Copson says
“…such a policy will never get grass-roots approval, ”
—————————————————————————————–
I’m sure that in the most afflicted areas, deportation of dangerous and unwanted immigrants has already got massive “grass-roots approval” – it’s the political and chattering classes that won’t allow it.
James Lincoln says
Infidel,
The United States should at least start by:
1. Immediately deporting all muslims who can be legally deported.
2. Not allow any further muslim immigration.
3. Conducting surveillance on all mosques immediately – and permanently close any that preach violence against infidels.
4. Ensure that all muslims follow US law.
gregbeetham says
Hmm those might not make it past the Islamophobia detector out there in wokeland.
eduardo odraude says
To succeed, what we need, besides more widespread awareness of the teachings in the Islamic core texts, are proposals for laws and policies that protect the freedom of free societies but that do not single out a particular religion, because if a particular religion is singled out, the whole history of US law and tradition will prevent such laws or policies from ever being adopted. Just not legally or politically possible. That’s why instead of singling out Islam, it might be better to propose that immigration be curtailed or stopped (with exceptions for some individuals) from any nation, of any culture or religion, that does not protect freedom of religion and freedom of speech. Such a policy would affect Islamic nations certainly, but also China and perhaps even some European and Eurasian nations. It would put serious pressure on unfree nations to start protecting freedom of religion and speech, and it would secure the freedoms already achieved in the US and elsewhere. Such a policy, because it does not single out any religion, would face less gigantic political obstacles in the US than a policy that does discriminate against a particular religion. (It doesn’t help to declare that Islam is not really a religion, and thus not entitled to the protection of the First Amendment, and to assert that therefore we can legally discriminate against it. It does not help legally or politically to say Islam is not really a religion, because part of the essence of the US legal system is that it refuses to define what is and is not a religion. So politically one will get nowhere by trying to exclude Islam from First Amendment legal protection. That’s why one needs a policy that stops immigration not only from Islamic nations but from all nations that do not protect basic freedoms. Anything else would simply be politically and legally impossible.)
gregbeetham says
Unfortunately that would affect Poland and Hungary’s efforts to safeguard their own populations from Islamic invasions. Trump probably was on the right path, banning travel from places that export terrorists which is most Islamic countries when all said and done.

“That’s why one needs a policy that stops immigration not only from Islamic nations but from all nations that do not protect basic freedoms.”
Good point, worthy of further discussion.
gravenimage says
Agreed, James.
Violet C says
I completely agree with you Infidel. It’s long overdue.
somehistory says
The “firebug” was “temporarily arrested,” and then taken to a hospital. If the shots to his leg hit an artery, he could croak.
Are they going to charge him with terrorism and attempted murder if he survives? Or just arson and evading arrest?
Michael Copeland says
“Lay ambushes for them and go after them in every stratagem of war” (Koran 9:5)
Exactly what this book says (as Lt.Col. Allen West said)

Austria: Muslim migrant sets fire to apartment building and attacks fleeing residents with a knife
…………..
More Jihad terror. Will it be acknowledged as such?
eduardo odraude says
David Wood today gave an absolute tour de force debate performance against imam Kenny Bomer on the question of Aisha being 9 years old when the 54 year old Muhammad consummated marriage with her. One of the most devastating debate performances I’ve ever seen, and possibly David Wood’s best debate ever:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zgNEplXFf9Y
eduardo odraude says
Actually, Kenny Bomer is probably not an imam. A Muslim convert for 30 years who now has public debates.
gravenimage says
Eduardo, Kenny Bomer (Mujahid Islam) is described as an Imam all over the internet. He is Imam of the Brazosport Islamic Center in Texas. Not sure if he is self-proclaimed or not.
gregbeetham says
Yes in typical Muslim fashion K Borner was trying his best to cloud the issue with a whole bunch of rubbish and accuse David of having an agenda, all instead of addressing the Islamic foundational question about Aisha’s age when the marriage to Muhammad was consummated and David Wood nailed him at every turn, no escape, because he can’t change the Koran and still remain a Muslim, it either says what it says or it doesn’t.
James Lincoln says
eduardo odraude,
At 1:54, Kenny Bomer was asked if Aisha was nine years old, or younger, was what Muhammad did to her wrong?
Kenny answered the question by never answering the question.
eduardo odraude says
At the end of the debate, James, Kenny downright refused to answer the question of whether he, Kenny, would consider it wrong if Muhammad indeed at age 54 did consummate marriage with a prepubescent 9-year-old girl. And it’s clear why Kenny refused to answer. Kenny agrees with whatever Muhammad did, no matter what. But Kenny did not want to publicly admit that he would still consider Muhammad the paragon of all human morality even if Muhammad consummated with a prepubescent girl. So Kenny refused to answer the question and said the question was “unnecessary” and he warbled on about his uncertainties. An utterly lame reply. David Wood was absolutely brilliant in this debate, from beginning to end. He was the Dr. J. of slam-dunk debating. I have never seen Wood better. Some of the questioners after the debate were pretty darn sharp as well.
James Lincoln says
eduardo odraude,
I agree, and thank you for your reply.

Austria: Muslim migrant sets fire to apartment building and attacks fleeing residents with a knife
……….
Hideous–we’ve seen these kind of Jihad terror attacks in other places. Setting fires and stabbing those trying to flee is a common tactic used by Jihadists in African villages–and now this is in Austria…
Christopher Watson says
Shot in the leg? The police should be reprimanded. Their lack of shooting skills is apalling and they must sent back to the academy to improve their marksmanship.
OLD GUY says
These muslim/islamic attacks are not just crimes of theft they are crimes against the host countries society .and rule. These are HATE CRIMES, and why we here in America want to open our borders to these kind of attacks on our citizens makes no sense at all.
Oren says
I heard someone in the building used the N word.
In G-d I trust.
gravenimage says
This is indeed the kind of excuse you often hear for Jihad terror attacks–usually false, as well.
DP111 says
This sort of attacks are occurring almost daily in Europe. Its the new “normal”. Its going to get much worse, as Muslims dont get what they think they deserve as they are the Believers and deserve the key to everything. Allah has bought Infidel property and lands for the chosen.
There is also the likelihood that this Somali was facing imminent deportation. This attack was a way of staying on some sort of excuse. He will cop the “insanity” plea. He is sentenced to 10 years. Out in 5 and stays in Europe, as he has nowhere to go now. It works.
