SHOCK: German authorities admit supermarket murderer was a jihadi

13

The failed asylum seeker who carried out a deadly knife attack in a Hamburg supermarket likely had a ‘radical Islamist’ motive, German prosecutors have said.

But the admission is still veiled by the nonsense phrase “radical islamist.” It’s not “radical,” it’s Islam. And “islamist” is a Western construct. What does it mean to say that someone or something is “Islamist” as opposed to “Islamic”? Nothing, really, except that the person speaking doesn’t want to offend Islam by speaking unwelcome truths about the political nature of the religion.

That said, it is something. It’s a step up from “mental illness,” “lone wolf” and other nonsensical terms cowards use for fear of offending islam.

Failed asylum seeker who killed one and slashed four in Hamburg supermarket had ‘radical Islamist motive’, prosecutors say

26-year-old may have been ‘self-radicalised’ after toying with extremist ideology

By Jay Akbar For Mailonline, 31 July 2017:

The failed asylum seeker who carried out a deadly knife attack in a Hamburg supermarket likely had a ‘radical Islamist’ motive, German prosecutors have said.

The attacker is reported to have screamed ‘Allahu Akbar’ before running into the Edeka shop where he stabbed one person to death and slashed at four others while trying to flee.

Prosecutors have since said the 26-year-old named Ahmad A had ‘self-radicalised’ after toying with the extremist ideology for some time.

But they say there is no evidence he carried out Friday’s attack as a member of ISIS or any other terror organization – or that he was in contact with or influenced by anyone.

‘It appears that there is a radical Islamist background to the act,’ prosecutors said in a statement with reference to the attack on Friday.

Two days before he launched the attack, the suspect ‘finally decided to adopt a corresponding lifestyle’ – they said.

‘On the day of the act, he resolved to commit an attack with the hope that he would die as a martyr,’ added prosecutors.

On Friday afternoon, the suspect entered a supermarket on a lively street in Hamburg and took a kitchen knife measuring around 20cm from the shelves.

‘He ripped off the packaging and then suddenly brutally attacked a 50-year-old man who later died,’ said deputy police chief Kathrin Hennings.

But they say there is no evidence he carried out Friday’s attack as a member of ISIS or any other terror organization – or that he was in contact with or influenced by anyone.

Whew- that’s certainly comforting. For a moment, I was concerned this might fan the flames of islamophobia, which, of course, is ever so much worse than the slaughter of 500,000 Christians, Yazidis, or even Muslims of the wrong flavor (Ref. 1), to say nothing of the gang rape of young British girls.

So dismiss any raaaacist, islamophobic notions you might fleetingly entertain that this dude Ahmad A was in any way influenced by anyone named Mohammed. Yessiree, sure am glad I got that one sorted out.

Ahmad is a form of Mohammed, so is Mamoud, Hamoud Amed. I am sure there are others but I can’t recall them all.. Needless to say, dumb mohammedans, will call one son Mohammed, the next Ahmed, and another Mamoud. Essentially naming all their sons Mohammed in some form..

So what, it is not as though this revelation will have any effect on anything, other than opening another file to retain ignored information before deletion.

What ‘revelation’?

The European Whites are still idiots

The European governments are still eunuch

The moslems are still roaming the European streets and terrorizing everyone

What ‘revelation’ are you talking about?

Good grief!
He doesn’t have to be a member of ISIS to be a jihadi!

As Sharia law is a political and religious entity, it questions whether Islam is religious (Islamic), political (Islamist) or both? The terms Islamic and Islamist are used to create confusion amongst those that question Islam and its motives. Religious protectionism is used by Islam to fend off criticism of its values. However as a political body this would not apply. In truth there is effectively no difference between either Islamic or Islamist; it is in effect a smoke screen. Islam needs to be defined for what it is, not what many Muslims claim it to be. No political ideology has the so called protectionism of a religion. If Islam wants to define itself as both then concerns over its political (Islamist) values can be debated without fear of slander or arrest.

No one but no one can top Boston when it comes to PC obfuscation at naming the real enemy, specifically radical islamic terrorism, what with the ridiculous “Boston Strong” slogan in the aftermath of the marathon bombing. How does such cowardice warrant the moniker “strong”? Are these victims having some type of derby or contest at formulating the most ridiculous responses to these vermin? Someone clue me in.

Even Saladin who conceived of sharia was not as evil as those practicing it today.
