Despite Alarming Reports, No Proof (Yet) Co-Pilot Andreas Lubitz Converted To Islam
ClashDaily.com ^ | 3/27/15 | Donald Joy

Posted on 03/27/2015 10:00:54 AM PDT by IChing

I’m usually an eager relayer of well-founded theories and clues which help get the truth out when politically-correct authorities try to hide or minimize the Islamic identity of jihad attackers, but in the case of Andreas Lubitz I must firmly state that so far (as of 3:00 am EST, U.S.), people are posting only completely unsubstantiated, non-credible reports that he was a convert to Islam.

In the early absence of much solid information about the 28-year-old pilot’s personal life the internet is, of course, going wild with speculation about Lubitz’ motives for deliberately crashing the plane full of innocent people into a mountain, and stories about him supposedly joining “the religion of peace” before doing it as an act of jihad are swirling around.

The people making such claims — if there was really anything to them — would be putting all sorts of verifiable specifics (or at least one or two checkable sources/facts) into their blog posts and articles to back up such an important allegation. However, they aren’t, so the fact is that they’re just trolls stirring up hysteria in order to generate traffic to their websites.

I believe it’s possible that Lubitz was a Muslim convert, but so far nothing credible has been made public to support that angle.

Certain internet posts in particular have gone viral, stating as if it’s fact that Lubitz converted to Islam. One of them, an article from a highly dubious German “news” website, has been translated into English and spread by The Gateway Pundit blog. The article’s headline bluntly states: The co-pilot of the Germanwings Airbus was a convert to Islam. In it, the writer says “All evidence indicates” that Lubitz’ conversion to Islam took place during his unexpected 6-month hiatus from pilot training (reported elsewhere as due to depression and “burnout”), and that he “was staying often” at a radical mosque in Bremen, Germany, where his flight school was located.

None of those claims are attributed to any source whatsoever; not even anyone described as “wishing to remain anonymous” is cited.

Another blog, St Thomas Aquinas Versus NASA, flatly declares in its headline: Muslim Convert Co-Pilot Andreas Gunter Lubitz Committed Jihad. In that post, without naming a single source, the writer states:

“It was said that Lubitz had a Muslim girlfriend. It is unclear if she was still dating Lubitz at the time of the crash. It is unclear if he met her through his Muslims(sic) friends.”

The blogger in question goes on to insist, without any verifiable support whatsoever, that he or she knows that Lubitz converted to Islam during his break from pilot training in Bremen.

As most readers are already aware, actual Islamic jihadists have wasted no time jubilantly claiming Lubitz as one of their own, creating social media pages heralding Lubitz as a hero for Islam, and celebrating the murders of so many innocent passengers and crew on behalf of their systematic Mohammedan terror reign.

For me, the most compelling information so far related to Lubitz’ possible motives has to do with the long, unplanned break in his pilot training, reported widely as being due to depression and burnout, and the revelation from police saying they had made a “significant discovery” of something — “not a suicide note” — inside his apartment, something which “may be a clue” to what happened to the doomed jet, and which has been “sent for tests.”

We can be certain that a tsunami of fresh information is about to break out all over the media and internet about the details of Andreas Lubitz’ personal life, and about the facts and circumstances leading up to his dastardly, murderous act. We can be just as certain that not all of it will be reliable.

I’m literally on the edge of my seat typing this, waiting, just like you are if you read this far.

About one thing I’m extremely confident, and in contrary to politically-correct sources: If it turns out that Andreas Lubitz was a Muslim convert, you can bet your last Euro it had to do with what he did.

So basically, the Religion of Peace is already celebrating the murder of 150-non-muslims, even if they really didn't do it.

Need any more proof that "Religion of Peace" might not be the perfect description of islam?

But those investigative news stories of Lubitz’s conversion uncovered tons of evidence that investigators may have found something of interest in his house and that pointed to the fact that there is genuine speculation, innuendo and rumor that Lubitz could have converted to Islam.

"Religion of PIECES" is more accurate.
The source give above looks like another gossip column to me and just more "Smoke" to screen people from the truth.

Just in case you care, here's an update.

The intersting finds appear to have been torn up sicknotes that Lubitz kept secret from his employer. The latest of them covering the same date as the crash.

Islam is not the only crazy in the world.

But it certainly forms a very clear image of what crazy may be, and while the co-pilot never made any overt moves to convert, he may have almost certainly been influenced by the simple and stark view of the world as “us versus them”, and the means they use to impose their will on unsuspecting targets.

The people who were in the plane are not the aggrieved party here, it is their living friends and relatives who have been thrown into a state of terror and panic.

Andreas Lubitz may not have been an Islamist or Islamic sympathizer, but he seems to have had a lot of unresolved conflicts in his mind about the sanctity of Western values.

The lead article of the thread, when you go to his source admits: Muslim FRIENDS?
Really?

Hang around EVIL long enough, and it infects you.

islamist or facilitator, the White House, State Department and our entire government are full of them too, and increasing immigration by the day.

Heard in Congress: “What difference does it make?”

“All evidence indicates that the copilot of Airbus machine in his six-months break during his training as a pilot in Germanwings, converted to Islam.”

This is total BS. Note that the article claims that “all evidence” points to Islamocide, but the article fails to cite even a single piece of evidence that supports that claim.

“It is said” isn’t exactly proof, or even evidence. Doesn’t even claim that a person, even an anonymous one, said it.

As the author of this piece notes, there has been to date zero evidence presented that the guy converted.

I’m perfectly willing to admit he may have. Why are so many so anxious to claim speculation is evidence?

I missed the evidence of “unresolved conflicts in his mind about the sanctity of Western values.” Where did you see that?

Then I'm an idiot, because I have no reason -- AT THIS POINT -- to believe this was a terrorist attack carried out in the name of Islam. None, zero, zilch! If you have any verifiable evidence other than anonymous rumor, blogs, and other forms of speculation, then please share it with us.
