New in PJ Media:
In his notorious black-and-red Reichstag Fire speech on September 1, Old Joe Biden declared: “Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic.” But while Joe and his far-Left henchmen move to criminalize political dissent and fundamentally transform the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave into an authoritarian hellhole, they remain mum and indifferent regarding a genuine “extremism” that really does threaten “the very foundations of our republic.” Their silence is easy to explain: the real extremists are their friends and allies, as we saw again on Thursday, when a man named Dzenan Camovic was sentenced to 30 years in prison for attacking police officers during the George Floyd riots in New York City.
Camovic was not your average skeevy Antifa member with a well-developed drug habit and a glancing (at best) acquaintance with personal hygiene. The New York Post reported Wednesday that he was sentenced “for stabbing an NYPD cop in the neck and shooting two other officers in an ambush.” Camovic likely didn’t hit his stabbing victim, Officer Yayon Frantz Jean Pierre, in the neck at random. Camovic is a devout Muslim, and the Qur’an tells believers: “When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks” (47:4). He has made no secret of his Islamic commitment: as he attacked the cops, he screamed “Allahu akbar.”
When the stabbed Jean Pierre fell and dropped his gun, Camovic grabbed the gun and shot two other cops in the hand. Why did he shoot both of them in the hand? Maybe to prevent them from grabbing him, but maybe it also had to do with this: “When your Lord inspired the angels, I am with you. So make those who believe stand firm. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Then strike the necks and strike their fingertips” (Qur’an 8:12).
Camovic himself made his motivation abundantly clear. “I killed two police officers,” he bragged, although actually all three of his victims survived, “and my religion made me do it.” At the time of his attack, John Miller, who was then the NYPD’s deputy commissioner of counter-terrorism, “said it appeared to be terror-related, but authorities turned up no connection between Camovic and international terror groups.” Nevertheless, Camovic’s own statements made it abundantly clear that even if he had no discernable ties to jihad terror groups, his was an act of jihad.
There is more. Read the rest here.

Maybe once again I’m exposing myself as a racist but I’m thinking that is not a picture of Dzenan Camovic at the top of this story.
somehistory says
It isn’t the same photo as with the other account of these attempted murders.
gravenimage says
You guys are right–I’ve seen Camovic’s picture..
Robert Spencer says
That’s not a photo of Camovic. That is a photo of the cops he attacked, leaving a hearing.
CogitoErgoSum says
Okay, so I am a racist. But in my defense the black guy surrounded by cops is not wearing a uniform or a badge. Having said that I think I’ll stop and exercise my right to remain silent.
somehistory says
I agree that the photo was confusing because he is not in a uniform, but is surrounded by those who are.

Thank you for that clarification, Mr. Spencer.

John Miller is the guy who met bin laden in his cave and had an interview. He should know one mozlum does not need a guy looking over his shoulder, instructing him, to carry out the demands of a psychopathic mass-murdering raper of children. The individual mozlum knows his commands are to murder and maim and rape and steal and lie for ilsam. It’s islam that tells him, not a specific sub-group. The sub-group may just applaud his actions.
Some mozlums are backed by state sponsors; some mozlums are encouraged by family and friends; all who attend the meetings at the barracks, and all who read the book of filth, know what they are commanded to do. Some mozlums obtain funding from other mozlums.
Some just see an opportunity and seize it without being a member of al queda, boko haram, isis, hamas, hezbollah, the mb…or another named group within the terror org known as islam.
Walter Sieruk says
It might be appropriate to reiterate that at least that violent vicious dangerous but devout Muslim is honest enough to come right out and admit that he stabbed that police officer in the neck because his “religion made him do it.”
This is in contrast to what many Western politicians and university professors say when they claim to the public that “Islam is a peaceful non-violent religion” Not only is their claim completerly false but it’s also total balderdash . Shame on them.

Horrifying, Somehistory. We’ve seen lots of ugly Islamic stories like this.
Infidel says
No, this wasn’t an islamic story. It was a story about a BJP politician (son of an ex minister) who did this. His property was promptly demolished and he was arrested, and both he and his father have been expelled from the party
Infidel says
Forgot to mention: both men described were Hindus
