The controversy this week in France, over why French officials failed to act on all the warning signs that Mickaël Harpon gave that he was in sympathy with jihad violence and hence might one day engage in jihad himself, recalls the instructive case of Khalid Masood, which revealed numerous problems with how officials all over […]
Westminster jihad murderer Khalid Masood, in last message, declared he was waging jihad
How inconvenient for the mainstream narrative. Deputy assistant Metropolitan police commissioner Neil Basu said in March: “We must all accept that there is a possibility we will never understand why he did this. That understanding may have died with him.” Anything to avoid noting an Islamic motivation. “Last message left by Westminster attacker Khalid Masood […]
UK: Westminster car jihadi told family, “You will soon hear of my death, but don’t worry…I will be in paradise”
The UK police have said: “There is a possibility we will never understand why he did this.” This new revelation makes it perfectly clear why he did it: because he considered himself to be a mujahid, a warrior for Allah, claiming Allah’s promise of Paradise to those who “kill and are killed” for him (Qur’an […]
Robert Spencer: What Is It About Converts to Islam?
Why do so many turn to jihad? Why is it so hard to instruct them properly in the tenets of the Religion of Peace? My latest in the Geller Report: What is it about converts to Islam? Why do so many of them get the idea that their new religion commands them to commit treason […]
London jihad murderer was receiving welfare checks
In Islamic law, non-Muslims have the duty to provide for the upkeep of Muslims. British jihadist Anjem Choudary said in February 2013: “We are on Jihad Seekers Allowance, We take the Jizya (protection money paid to Muslims by non-Muslims) which is ours anyway. The normal situation is to take money from the Kafir (non-Muslim), isn’t […]
London jihadi’s daughter refused his pressure to convert to Islam, wear a niqab
UK Prime Minister Theresa May said it would be wrong to describe Masood’s jihad attack as “Islamic” extremism. She said: “It is Islamist terrorism. It is a perversion of a great faith.” But was there anything about Masood before his jihad massacre that would have identified him as an “Islamist” rather than as a Muslim? […]
London jihad murderer was “very religious”
“Masood was a ‘very religious, well spoken man. You couldn’t go to his home in Birmingham on Friday because he would be at prayer.’” If Masood had been a “very religious” Christian, the establishment media would be investigating what was taught at his church, and publishing searching features about the crisis within Christianity. But since […]
London jihad murderer “said he needed time to pray and read the Koran – something about finding inner peace”
The Qur’an promises that fighting the unbelievers will “satisfy the breasts of a believing people and remove the fury in the believers’ hearts”: “Fight them; Allah will punish them by your hands and will disgrace them and give you victory over them and satisfy the breasts of a believing people and remove the fury in […]
Two “significant arrests” made overnight in association with London jihad murders
“Nine people remain in custody and one woman has been released on bail.” This appears to have been a large-scale plot. And more are in the offing. “Two ‘significant arrests’ made overnight in association to London attack,” CNN, March 24, 2017: The birth name of the perpetrator of Wednesday’s deadly terrorist attack in central London […]
