What would possess a Muslim motorist to drive around San Francisco Bay Area streets in his SUV and deliberately run over pedestrians, including kids? Insanity, shrugs the mainstream media.
Omeed Aziz Popal was taken into custody Tuesday after a hit-and-run spree that terrorized pedestrians, bicyclists and motorists for a full hour, killing one and injuring 14. The news treated the bloody rampage like a random act of violence.
Those in the media who didn't brush it off as an "inexplicable tragedy" before moving on to the next story focused on the alleged mental illness and not the religion of suspect Popal, a native of Afghanistan. His lawyer claims he'd been treated for a nervous breakdown. A cousin offered that Popal, who'd returned two weeks earlier from Afghanistan, might have been stressed over an arranged marriage.
But police, who say victims were hit intentionally and methodically in a dozen different locations throughout the area, aren't buying it.
The clean-cut 29-year-old seemed calm, coherent and unrepentant when they pulled him from his black Honda SUV. It was as he was being arrested that a woman heard Popal say "I'm a terrorist," a statement that, as of Wednesday afternoon, only KTVU in San Francisco was reporting.

It's significant because last month a Muslim immigrant from Pakistan went on a shooting rampage at a Seattle Jewish center. After coldly and deliberately shooting six women there, suspect Naveed Haq announced, "I'm a Muslim-American; I'm angry at Israel."

The San Francisco attack is also reminiscent of the hit-and-run rampage last spring at the University of North Carolina in which another angry Muslim lashed out at infidels by hitting nine people with a big SUV he'd rented for the occasion.
Same with other freelance terrorists. The Beltway snipers were Muslim converts who admired the 9-11 hijackers. They said their goal was to "terrorize" Washington. One wrote in his diary: "Islam. We will resist. We will conquer." Some news outlets couldn't bring themselves to say the leader's legally changed Muslim name, John Muhammad, using instead his previous name John Allen Williams.

He found out that the wife to be had picked out a perfectly ugly flatware pattern.
I'll admit I've been busy, but I have not heard a peep about this until now.
The Koran.
Same here. I wonder if anyone else is covering it.
They have everything planed out soooo neatly, the statements, the press, the cops, the "insanity plea", the gaggle of friends and relatives claiming mental disturbances in the recent past, the asymmetric attacks.
I'ts just to well orchestrated in each and every case.
They listed the perp's name and religion in paragraph 55!
It took them 55 paragraphs to get around to it...!
Counted it up in the gym this morning, in disgust.
I'm seriously thinking about changing my tag line to "Not PC and proud of it!"
So now, before you cross the street, look left, look right, look left again and look out for muslims...
Sudden Jihad Syndrome.
bump!
What's next?
A "Turban headed traveling hobo sniping from an open freight car crossing Kansas?"
PC should go back to the definition that describes the machine I am typing on, ONLY. We don't need no d#mn political "correctness". We need TRUTH. The first, second, third.....7687th...thing I think of is muslim. No PC here 'ceptin' this here 'puter.

There are many similar incidents. See:

Sudden Jihad Syndrome
That is rather clever.
I don't claim it, but I don't mind using it.
Might have been coined by the little green footballs people.
Daniel Pipes came up with that phrase or something essentially similar.
He couldn't get his mitts on a plane, so he just had to make do with what was at hand. He's a terrorist who would have killed more if he had been able.
For an interesting read posted the other day on FR, check out this thread posted by FReeper Lorianne...
Bingo, that's it. It was Pipes.
Sudden Jihad Syndrome (in North Carolina)
http://www.danielpipes.org/article/3450
It seems that Freepers want to make funnies out all of this. I believe that we are going to be hit again and we are just laughing about it all. Get out of the house and try your best to support any Republican candidate.
The President made it very clear that this war would be a long hard slog.
It is terrorism of course. Surely the entire world knows this by now, even if our media seems not to.
islam......
Daniel Pipes recently coined the term, but many (no doubt some here) commented on the then-unlabeled syndrome back with the July 2002 LA Airport shooting.

From the letters: a detailed Qur'anic justification for killing in Allah's name
Mohammed Reza Taheri-azar, the Tarheel jihadist, has written six letters to the Daily Tar Heel, student newspaper of the University of North Carolina (thanks to Joseph), where he tried to kill students for Allah by running them over in an SUV.

Omeed, or whateverthehell it is, is just one of hundreds of spelling variations of..............mmmm, could it be.....MOHAMMED
Not surprising.
This is something I wish the President would stop saying. Because if we are hit bigtime, the Dems will use it against us.
No doubt, I remember, there were many comments here. Pretty much everyone here saw it as an act of terrorism, despite official pronouncements of "isolated incident, lone nutcase, not terrorism, nothing to see here, move along."
You have to ask? The answer is right in front of your nose!
Time to start deportation of any muslim with a Visa.
Then start shutting down mosques, as they are organized crime meeting centers.
I am dead serious.
You are dead right!.........FRegards

It's going to take 9/11 X10 or 100 to wake the sheeple.
I wish I weren't posting this, but I believe it to be true.
:-(
Well, that's one thing. Another is knowing the population has been disarmed.
It might not work so well in Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, etc.
We may as well laugh, and keep our pistols clean.
The sheeple will never tear themselves away from E! and Bravo networks long enough to get that far.
This has been going on for 14 centuries and people still refuse to see it. What's one more attack going to do except give the pinkos another chance to grab our guns?
A little off topic perhaps, but what would possess parents to take their kids to a place like San Fransicko?
