Did you know the DC snipers were muslim? The press never let on.

It showed up in the very earliest reports after they were caught, but was quickly thrown down the memory hole.

And with Talovic dead and apparently having acted alone, unless something he wrote explaining his actions is discovered, it is unlikely that his motive will ever be definitively known.

Sigh.... leaderless cells. This isn't a new concept.

The article writer neglected to include the student who blew himself up outside the OU football game a while back. To me, that incident reeked of the old "nothing to see here, no terrorism, move along" syndrome that you always hear ascribed to them almost from the moment that they happen.

Keep the population shopping and watching American Idol. We wouldn't want them to recognize or acknowledge that there is a war going on......

What mosque did this guy attend? Do they teach hate?

Is that a rhetorical question?

Take a look at this picture -




Looks pretty normal for everyday, agreed? Looks are decieving my FRiend.


This would probably pass for any Mexican, or Indian, or maybe even Mid-East person right? Now if I tell you who he is right away, you'll say, "I knew that!" Or maybe you would, but tens of thousands of others do not! It is important to wrap around this concept, because it may help us all to live a little longer.Let me add a couple of things in that help identify him for you-


He's married.

He graduated High School with honours.

Has a degree

Married

Has a daughter.

Sounds okay so far, right? Lets go a little further...

He's Muslim

He's from Asir Province, a poor region in southwestern Saudi Arabia that borders Yemen.

His name is Abdul Aziz al-Omari

He died 9/11/01.

One of the 9/11 hijackers.



sulejmen talovic, muslim errorist, conducted a terrorist raid in Salt Lake City, Utah. It was an ordinary Monday on Febuary 12th, 2007 at Trolley Square...

Our enemy are not totally stupid, I expect to see this as an increasing pattern to come.

In another article here in FR There was some pretty accurate verbage saying same thing I said...


Anyway, the bottom line is this: in light of the fact that there have been several attacks similar to Talovic's committed by Muslims in the last year, as I detail here, and that in each case authorities have discounted the possibility. All I am asking is that the possibility that such attacks are motivated by the jihad ideology, even in the absence of an institutional connection to a group like Al-Qaeda, be duly considered. Is that too much to ask? Link here

I was in DC at the time, and his Muslim conversion was frequently mentioned. When the original arrest was made, there were FReepers claiming that the press would never mention that he had changed his name to John Muhammad, and would stick with his earlier name. They didn't -- he was always referred to as Muhammad.

They do plenty of bad stuff on their own --we don't need to gig them for some things they didn't do.

"The ROP doesn't seem (on the surface) to play much, if any, role in the family. However, that certainly does NOT preclude the shooter from seeking out and being influenced by Islamic sources (be it the web or other)."

WHY is islam so influencing - especially for someone who was not brought up in it???? I am really curious.

The jihadi intentions of Muhammad and Malvo were almost never mentioned in the news reports that I watched. Perhaps your experience differed.

Yep,
we had one of these wonderful immigrant Bosnian jihadist kill a 15 year old high school student in Fort Worth a few years back. Shot him for no apparent reason then hid the body in a storm drain.
Clinton really chose the wrong group to side with in the Yugoslavian issue. Remember, the yugoslavia area has been the front line in the battle between Christians and Muslims for 1000+ years.......

Could he have been motivated by jihadist sympathies?

FBI special agent Patrick Kiernan discounted that possibility.

And why does that not surprise me?

Fart, Barf and Itch would never admit that there was a possiblility of jihadism in this country that escaped their outstandingly professional domestic intelligence program that is on top of all potential jihadist nutballs.

Damned fools.

Damned incompetent, arrogant fools.

One and all.

It is really too bad that most Americans are not aware that the Bosnia and Kosovo conflicts by the U.S. were in support of the muslims.

My local news WUSA 9 Gannett (left leaning local DC CBS) never once said they were muslims. I didn't know they were muslims until months after the event. I remember being afraid to go to the gas station and cops on every exit on Route 66.

Perhaps it's the various police departments' opinion that Islam is a mental disease. Actually, it's a moral disease called unrepented and unforgiven sin.

We cannot trust any mooslem. This is a very compelling reason for the right to carry concealed weapons on us 24x7. Any politician who is anti 2nd Amendment ought to be kicked out of office.

As such attacks grow in number, it would behoove authorities at very least to consider the possibility that these attacks were inspired by the jihadist ideology of Islamic supremacism, and to step up pressure on American Muslim advocacy groups to renounce that ideology definitively and begin extensive programs to teach against it in American Islamic schools and mosques.

I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you!

Coming to a mall/highschool football game/crowded shopping area near you!

I've thought for several years this will be one of the new Muslim methods of jihad. Just one gunman killing 4 or 5 infidels at a time.

How many Muslims are in the U.S.?
