Officers also recovered a notebook containing handwritten notes listing the qualities needed by a mujihadeen commander to fight “kuffar” non-Muslims, including the ability “to attack like a wolf and carry weapons like an ant,” jurors heard.
Prosecutors say he also tried to stab four other commuters during the attack at Leytonstone tube station in east London before being arrested as an onlooker shouted: ‘You ain’t no Muslim bruv’.
The moroni onlooker was a non-Muslim. The jihad was shouting allah akbar. That’s how deluded people are. You can’t make this stuff up.

But of course, it has nothing to do with Islam. SMH
This kind of hacking has become more commonplace as Muslims migrate to the West. This past month we saw similar hackings at an eatery in Ohio, a Munich railway station, a China train station, UC Merced college, Toronto Recruitment Centre, IKEA in Sweden, a German policeman, bloggers and writers in Bangladesh, knife attack on tourists in Morocco and almost weekly knife attacks on Jews. It is a new wave of Islamic terror, following Muhammad’s example of spreading Islam by the sword.

Court hears that accused had photos of terrorists and victims on phone
He denies attempted murder but admits wounding with intentBy Richard Spillett for MailOnline, 1 June 2016
Muhiddin Mire is on trial for attempted murder after he attacked Lyle Zimmerman with a knife in Leytonstone tube station last December
A suspected extremist who tried to behead a musician in a London tube station had photos of Jihadi John and murdered soldier Lee Rigby on his phone, a court heard today.
Muhiddin Mire, 30, cut the throat of 56-year-old Lyle Zimmerman three days after the House of Commons debate on the bombing of ISIS in Syria, jurors were told.
Mire, who has a history of mental illness, was allegedly ‘motivated by revenge’ for the air strikes by the UK and coalition forces and was heard shouting: ‘This is for my Syrian brothers’.
Prosecutors say he also tried to stab four other commuters during the attack at Leytonstone tube station in east London before being arrested as an onlooker shouted: ‘You ain’t no Muslim bruv’.
Prosecutor Jonathan Rees QC told the Old Bailey that there was no evidence anyone else was involved and said: ‘It appears he was acting alone, without any support.’
Mire’s Samsung mobile phone revealed searches of information on Sharia Law, the Muslim attack on the cultural centre in Texas, ‘Islam v West’ and Islamic State, also known as ISIS.
He also had images of hostages about to be beheaded and Fusilier Lee Rigby, who was hacked to death by extremists in Woolwich in May 2013.
Another image featured Hilary Benn making his speech at the House of Commons shortly before the vote to approve the bombing of ISIS in Syria, jurors heard.
Mr Rees said: ‘That debate took place on 2 December 2015 just three days before the incident.
‘There were associated images of various comments that people had posted on social media which expressed concern at the collateral damage that the bombing would cause.
‘The material suggests that he plainly had an interest in this topic. The prosecution suggest that the contents of his phone, when looked alongside what he said in the course of the incident, provide an indication as to what motivated the defendant to do what he did and what he was seeking to do to Mr Zimmerman.’
At Mire’s flat near the station, police found a special edition of the book ‘Milestones’, by radical Islamist Syed Qutb, which included calls for armed jihad in support of Sharia law.

The vote is said to have been the motivation by Mire’s attack. File photo used here
Officers also recovered a notebook containing handwritten notes listing the qualities needed by a mujihadeen commander to fight ‘kuffar’ non-Muslims, including the ability ‘to attack like a wolf and carry weapons like an ant’, jurors heard.
Mire, who was born in Somalia and came to the UK as a young boy, has a previous history of mental illness and told his GP a month before the attack he believed he was being followed by MI5 and MI6.
Islam is a mental illness.
At the time of the attack, he had stopped working as a taxi driver for Uber and was living on benefits at a one-bed council flat near the tube station where the attack took place.
At around 7pm on 5 December last year he was returning home by tube from Stratford when he saw Mr Zimmerman, who was wearing cowboy boots and a hat and carrying a guitar, mandolin and amplifier.
Mire followed the musician towards the exit at Leytonstone tube station before grabbing him around the neck as he was about to pass through the ticket barriers.
He forced Mr Zimmerman to the ground and then repeatedly kicked him in the head before using a knife blade to saw at the victim’s neck, the jury were told.
Shocking CCTV footage shown the jury yesterday showed the attack unfolding in the Underground station
Mr Zimmerman suffered three knife wounds to the front of his neck but survived because none of his major blood vessels were damaged.
Prosecutors say Mire then made his way up to street level and tried to stab a Polish man, Daniel Bielinski, who was with his girlfriend.
Mr Bielinski dodged out of the way and filmed Mire on a mobile phone as the attacker lunged at other commuters, including Serena Valori, security guard Andrius Sabaliauskas, and lift engineer David Pethers.
In the five minute clip, Mr Bielinski can be heard shouting: ‘What do you want with this knife? Why do you want to attack me? Why do you attack me and my girlfriend?’
The defendant replies: ‘You attack our land, our Muslim land.’
Mr Bielinski then cries out in Polish for someone to call the police.
When Mire demands where he’s from, he replies: ‘Doesn’t matter where I’m from. Why you attack me with this knife?’
Mire was Tasered by officers at least three times before being brought to the ground.
Police at the scene. Prosecutors say it was planned as a ‘revenge’ attack in the days after the Parliament vote
As he was cuffed, he said: ‘Why didn’t you just finish me off? You could. That’s what we do.’
As he was led to the police car he was heard to say: ‘This is for Syria, my Muslim brothers.’
He later told police his actions were in response to the bombings of hospitals in Syria.
Mr Rees said: ‘The evidence suggests that the defendant was carrying out some sort of revenge attack for the bombings that were being carried out in ISIS-controlled areas of Syria.’
The prosecutor said it was not suggested that Mire was legally insane at the time of the attack and added: ‘We will have to wait to see as the evidence emerges if his mental health has any bearing on the main issue that you have to decided in this case, whether or not at the time he attacked Mr Zimmerman he was intending to kill him.’
Mire, of Leytonstone, admits wounding Mr Zimmerman with intent and four counts of attempted wounding of David Pethers, Daniel Bielinski, Serena Valori and Andrius Sabaliauskas.
He denies attempted murder of Mr Zimmerman. The trial continues.

There are 100’s of these attacks in UK. Never reported. The victims dare not due to being called “racist” and arrest by Police for “Islamophobia” fir reporting the crime. How do I know? It happened in Rotherham. UK is now under de facto Sharia. I also get reports from around areas like Birmingham where Moslem “patrols” are out every night,

Jihad is a mental illness the west could do without IMHO.

Tired of repeats, just hang them as terrorist. I can think of much worse things to do.
They should not be tried as murders, but terrorist to give instant death penalty. Deport their families as well if not 3rd generation.

Once again religious faith and Jihad is equated with “mental illness”. There seems to be a epidemic building in Europe of mental illness, no?

Too bad the “police” didn’t kill him. If they’re not killed on the spot, they become a tool of the left in the big pc/mc game in Europe.
Just. Kill. Them.

I’m so looking forward to the first beheading attempt on me. I have a surprise for you, moslems. It’ll hurt. However, the good news is that you won’t be arrested and put in jail.
