Islamic State operatives are working hard to mount a Paris-style jihad mass murder attack here. They hope to overwhelm the FBI and the entire law enforcement and intelligence apparatus with so many plots and attacks that the system will collapse. “FBI using elite surveillance teams to track at least 48 high-risk ISIS suspects,” by Catherine […]
Jihadi who wanted to kill Pamela Geller said he’d kill his family if they refused to live by Sharia
“When asked about bail, Assistant U.S. Attorney Stephanie Siegmann told the judge that Rovinski posed a ‘significant threat to public safety.’ He was ordered held for a week and limped away in shackles.” A week? A week? Will anyone be watching this jihadi savage next week? “He also indicated he is prepared to fight anyone […]
Muslims who plotted to behead Pamela Geller readily admitted support for Islamic State
“The same day, Rovinski, of Warwick, Rhode Island, was interviewed by agents. He said he converted to Islam two years ago, and he changed his name to ‘Nuh Amriki.’ The Islamic State group appealed to him ‘because they represent the most pure and honest form of the religion,’ according to investigators.” Not that this has […]
Another Muslim arrested in Boston jihad plot targeting cops and Pamela Geller
This makes three jihadis dead and two in custody for trying to murder Pamela Geller. Does anyone really think that these men would have lived peaceful and productive lives were it not for our Muhammad cartoon exhibit? Does anyone really think they were so “provoked” by that event that it led them to discard their […]
Video of Boston jihadi proves he wasn’t shot in back, refuting family claims
Not that this will end their claims of victimhood and attempts to demonize the police. “Authorities release video of Boston terror suspect armed with large knife, shot dead by cops; family remains skeptical,” by Sasha Goldstein, New York Daily News, June 8, 2015: Grainy surveillance video captures the moment a Boston terror suspect, armed with […]
FBI, cops watching Rhode Island Muslim linked to Geller beheading plot
What is the real matter of concern is what this apparent convert to Islam will do once the police cars leave his street. Jihad Watch reader Paul informs me that Rovinski was arrested three years ago and charged with throwing a rock through the glass door of a liquor store. Paul asks: “Do you suppose […]
Imam, aunt: would-be beheader of Pamela Geller not a terrorist, was ‘murdered’
It will be hard for them to make this victimhood narrative fly, since people who have seen the surveillance video don’t bear out their story. On the other hand, with a willingly complicit mainstream media (Lisa Wangsness, call your office) and police officials afraid of more “racist police” stories, they might be able to get […]
Feds warn of Muslims using “simple and easily accessible weapons” to wage jihad
Not that they mentioned Muslims or Islam or jihad, of course. They were referring to HVE’s — Homegrown Violent Extremists. Perish the thought that anyone in government or law enforcement actually give an actual hint of the nature or content of the ideology that is fueling this bloodlust. “Feds issue warning after alleged Boston terror […]
Boston jihadis met with third man on Rhode Island beach to plot beheading of Pamela Geller
This Providence Journal report doesn’t say so, but the jihadis’ beheading target was Pamela Geller. “Court complaint: 2 Mass. terror suspects met on R.I. beach to plot beheading,” by Amanda Milkovits, Providence Journal, June 3, 2015: WARWICK, R.I. — Two Massachusetts men under surveillance by terrorism investigators met with an unidentified third person on a […]
Robert Spencer, FPM: The Boston Jihadis and the Left’s War on the Police
In FrontPage today I discuss, in the jihad plot against Pamela Geller and the shooting of jihadist Usaama Rahim, the Cartoon Jihad and the vilification of the police converge. In Usaama Rahim, the Left’s war on the police and the Islamic State’s war on cartoonists of Muhammad have come together. No surprise: they were always […]
Pamela Geller: “They targeted me for violating sharia blasphemy laws”
The execrable Daily News can’t stop sneering at the heroic Pamela Geller — “conservative firebrand,” “Upper East Side right winger” — even when she is a direct target of an Islamic State-inspired murder plot. The Daily News, and the rest of the comfortable media and political elites, are happy to throw her under the bus, […]
Boston jihadis originally planned to behead Pamela Geller
UPDATE: Apparently the “person outside Massachusetts” they were targeting was Pamela Geller; CNN called her for comment on it. Will the media elites begin to call for her protection and the defense of the freedom of speech? UPDATE 2: Here is CNN’s report confirming that Usaama Rahim was targeting Pamela Geller. ———- This report doesn’t […]
Boston jihadi not on phone, not shot in back, as imam brother had charged
Surprised? Well, you know, as Muhammad said, “War is deceit,” and these days if Ibrahim Rahim is able to convince Leftists and race agitators that Usaama Rahim was shot in the back, he could set Boston on fire. And some people, both at home and over in the Islamic State, very much want to set […]
Boston jihadis plotted to behead a police officer
The police must have provoked them, right? By being police. If the police had just allowed themselves to be stabbed, all would have been well. It is never wise and always uncharitable to provoke Muslims — everyone knows that. Note the participation of Globe reporter Lisa Wangsness, who has done so much to whitewash the […]
Slain Boston jihadi “radicalized by ISIS,” part of terror network
And his brother is a leading moderate Islam who somehow failed to imbue his brother with the true, peaceful teachings of Islam that all non-Muslim authorities have no problem understanding. More on this story. “Source: Man fatally shot by officers in Boston part of terror network,” by Ray Sanchez, Evan Pérez and Shimon Prokupecz, CNN, […]
Boston: Jihad terror suspect shot after threatening cops with military knife
There are active investigations of several sites at one — this could ultimately end up being not just one, but a whole group of lone wolves, all misunderstanding Islam together. “Man shot in Roslindale was under 24-hour surveillance,” by Evan Allen, Laura Crimaldi, John R. Ellement and Martin Finucane, Boston Globe, June 2, 2015 (thanks […]
