Robert Spencer: The Jihad in Michigan That No One Noticed

43

A Muslim migrant named Amor Ftouhi is on trial now for his June 2017 stabbing of police officer Lt. Jeff Neville at Bishop International Airport in Flint, Michigan. The case has, unsurprisingly, received hardly any establishment media attention, and that may be because it is such a quintessential example of jihad: Ftouhi screamed “Allahu akbar” as he stabbed Neville in the neck (as commanded in Qur’an 47:4, “When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks”) and has since then made numerous statements making it abundantly clear that he stabbed Neville because of his Islamic faith. Hard to ascribe this one to “mental illness.”

At Ftouhi’s trial on Thursday, according to MLive, FBI Special Agent Shadi Elreda, one of the agents who interrogated Ftouhi, testified: “He asked us if the officer was dead. I responded with ‘I didn’t know.’ He put his head down and was crying. He said his intention was to kill the officer….He said that he was here for his mission — his mission was to kill a United States government employee. His mission was to kill and be killed. He said his mission was not over. He said he would have a better chance of success and enter into heaven. He said they needed to act against the enemies of Allah. He blamed the United States government for their support of Israel.”

He cried because he failed. “His mission was to kill and be killed.” Why was that his mission? Because the Qur’an promises Paradise to those who kill and are killed: “Indeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties, for that they will have Paradise. They fight in the cause of Allah, so they kill and are killed.” (9:111)

Story continues below advertisement

He didn’t kill, and he wasn’t killed, so he failed doubly. He did, however, try to fix one aspect of that: “Elreda told the court that Ftouhi asked Elreda to kill him multiple times during the interrogation.”

Elreda also recounted that Ftouhi “said there was significance in an international airport — that the whole world would see what he did. He wanted all the Muslims to see what he did — to not be afraid and to act against the enemy.”

MLive further reported that “Ftouhi told investigators he visited a few mosques in Flint before heading to Bishop Airport.” What? He visited mosques? But…jihad violence has nothing to do with Islam! Isn’t that what the “experts” always tell us?

Ftouhi also “wrote in the will that he has loved his wife for 20 years, but his love for Jihad was stronger. ‘This is what a Muslim is born for,’ Maryse Robert, a federal investigator with the Royal Canadian Police said Ftouhi’s will stated. ‘You have been a good wife for more than 20 years. My love for God Almighty and the jihad for his sake is greater. I suggest that you use the life insurance policy to return to Tunisia.’”

Where did Ftouhi get the idea that a Muslim was “born” in order to try to kill Infidels? Are “moderate Muslims” in Michigan going to visit him in prison and explain to him the true, peaceful Islam?

In reality, of course, what Amor Ftouhi believes is taught in numerous mosques all over the world. All the mainstream Islamic sects and schools of jurisprudence teach the necessity for Muslims to wage war against and subjugate unbelievers. Amor Ftouhi’s beliefs are not eccentric and didn’t spring from nowhere, but no Western authorities want to face the implications of that.

Ftouhi, MLive also tells us, “grew up in Tunisia and told federal agents he was in the North African country and celebrated following the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in the United States.” When he was admitted to the United States, no one would have dared ask him what he thought of 9/11. The Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) would have immediately initiated an “Islamophobia” lawsuit, and the responsible official would have been publicly humiliated and probably lost his or her job.

And so those charges of “Islamophobia” were avoided and Ftouhi was admitted into the country, only to join the ever-lengthening list of Muslim migrants who have committed acts of jihad violence in their land of refuge. A few examples: Somali Muslim migrant Mohammad Barry in February 2016 stabbed multiple patrons at a restaurant owned by an Israeli Arab Christian; Ahmad Khan Rahami, an Afghan Muslim migrant, in September 2016 set off bombs in New York City and New Jersey; Arcan Cetin, a Turkish Muslim migrant, in September 2016 murdered five people in a mall in Burlington, Washington; Dahir Adan, another Somali Muslim migrant, in October 2016 stabbed mall shoppers in St. Cloud while screaming “Allahu akbar”; and Abdul Razak Artan, yet another Somali Muslim migrant, in November 2016 injured nine people with car and knife attacks at Ohio State University. 72 jihad terrorists have come to the U.S. from the countries listed in Trump’s initial immigration ban.

A migrant. “Allahu akbar.” Striking the neck. Crying that his victim wasn’t dead. Wanting to leave an example for Muslims worldwide. Celebrating 9/11. Visiting mosques before his jihad attack. Saying a Muslim was born to commit acts of jihad violence. No wonder the establishment media won’t tell you about Amor Ftouhi.

I basically earn nearly $18,000-$19,000 per month using the net. I lost my job after operating for the same organization for a long period. I needed trusted income. I was not researching for the “get rich overnight” packages you notice all over the net. Those are all sort of ponzi type of multi-level marketing systems wherein you have to first make prospects then sell something to friends or family members or any person to make sure they will be in your team. Working on-line has many positive points like I am always home with the children and also enjoy time with family on different beaches of the world.

To Halal Bacon, You are 100% correct. Islam is the perfect satanistic religion. If you are an islam believer, all women are slaves and are beneath all men, the women must do as they are told or be beaten, or killed in the beating. Anyone that does not believe in Islam is an infidel and that infidel can be kidnapped, murdered, made into a slave, abused in any way, as that is the law of Islam. It is also the law of satanism. It is the creed of the devil. Since islam follows satanic laws factually and in full acknowledgement, islam is a true form of satanism. Islam is evil to its core. It has no validity as any sort of truth. Satanism is lies upon lies, satanism is narcissism. And islam follows satanism thru and thru. Any person such as Amor Ftouhi, most likely is inbred, he clearly is what is called a useful idiot. The communists and the leaders of the mosques are clapping for his behavior and laughing out loud for how stupid Amor is for doing this evil act, and claiming it in the name of GOD. GOD says to Amor, Who are you?
I, GOD, do not know you, you are doing evil acts of satan, you are not part of GOD’s house, you are not part of any GODly act, you Amor are evil, you Amor are following satan, into the deep pit of evil. You Amor have no place in heaven, you only have a place in the burning pit of hell.

Every few years, Muslims trample each other to death in their rush to worship at Mecca, (1,400 killed at Mecca 1990, 1,000 at Mecca 2015) and the rest of the time you are slaughtering each other in a bid to prove who is the most righteous. You should worry that one of your own may be behind you. Eventually your evil religion will devour itself.

I just took an antacid, Felix, thanks. Seriously, Obama was/is the most divisive president and continues his mission, the downfall of the Republic. Ironically, the MSM and leftists of the great unwashed perceive him as a messiah, not the Muslim he is and always has been for decades. A toxic man with toxic intentions along with his Democrat disciples and beyond lethal cult, Islam.

” His mission was to kill and be killed. He said his mission was not over.” Gee, from here it pretty much looks like mission over. For this s**t for brains, at least.
And what will his wife do without all that insurance money. Dont those dumb f**ks know that if you are engaged in a crime at the time of your death, they cant collect on life insurance. Perhaps the U.S. Gov can send the wife, via cargo ship in 4th class, back to her sh**hole.

All she has to do is walk over the Canadian border. SFB Trudeau would welcome one like her personally in his office. She would likely ” qualify ” for an extra hardship pension, maybe even a cabinet post right up there with the Somali Minister of Immigration ( ya, you read that right ).

The “ONLY DEMOCRACY” in the mideast cannot exist without removing the most fundamental foundation blocks of Democracy:
Free Speech (holocaust questioning & public protest) is outlawed.
Freedom of Association (Boycott) is outlawed.
Equality (under the “Nationhood Law” NON-Jews do not have FULL rights).
That is NOT a Democracy.

THE MUSLIM IDEOLOGY does not equate with the U.S. Constitution because the Quran is filled with NEGATIVE LIBERTIES, NEGATIVE FREEDOMS. I want to know how many Muslims who swore an oath to America WHEN THEY BECAME A CITIZEN, have actually gone against America and our Constitution. If they have, that is called SEDITION. And, if they are here illegally or overstayed their green card, THE ENTIRE FAMILY SHOULD BE DEPORTED.

Our Constitution is filled with ALL LIBERTIES AND FREEDOMS. Therefore, all those who practice ISLAM should be asked to leave the U.S.A. first and then deported if they refuse.

…Muslims who swore an oath to America WHEN THEY BECAME A CITIZEN, …..have NO PROBLEM LYING ABOUT IT.

>>> The Taqiyya Factor

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2015/11/the_taqiyya_factor.html

Taqiyya is an Islamic doctrine that allows Muslims to deceive non-Muslims. As in lie to them. Dr. Sami Mukaram, author of Taqiyya in Islam, writes: “Taqiyya is of fundamental importance in Islam. Practically every Islamic sect agrees to it and practices it…

>>> Former President Obama expertly practices Taqiyya. That is why he was not condemned to death for Apostasy for renouncing islam, for saying he is a Christian.

to state Robert Spencer is relating true facts re islamic terror in usa now is not quite accurate. Spencer censored a comment i submitted in aug. 2018 to his website.
He deleted my accurate descrip of seattle area african immigrants true nature. violence supported by black magic and cannabilism acts. too strong for his taste.
no discussion….. just deletion.
You can talk and watch these jihadists…they enjoy being center of attention. just do not ask about black magic (voodoo ceremonies) or cannabilism.. they will not hesitate to confirm their insanity. the use of such evil is a mark of their power.
