Sudden Jihad Syndrome
Investor's Business Daily ^ | 2/16/07 | IBD

Posted on 02/19/2007 10:21:22 PM PST by melt

Terror: It looks like the Muslim teen who opened fire on shoppers in a Salt Lake City mall is yet another case of "sudden jihad syndrome," a condition in which normal-appearing American Muslims abruptly turn violent.

Taken together, this and other cases add up to an invisible jihad inside America. But don't tell that to the FBI. The politically correct bureau does everything it can to avoid recognizing the obvious Islamic factor in these heinous crimes.

Sulejman Talovic, an 18-year-old Bosnian Muslim immigrant, was loaded with enough ammo to "inexplicably" kill dozens of victims — and he would have, if an alert off-duty cop hadn't returned fire and stopped him. Talovic still managed to methodically murder five and wound four others with a shotgun.

Witnesses say it was an act of coldblooded violence aimed at random victims — something otherwise known as terrorism. According to the Salt Lake Tribune, Talovic attended Friday prayers at a mosque about a block from the mall.

Yet the FBI saw no religious motive, and quickly ruled out terrorism. Nor could it find anything to indicate terrorism in several other Muslim-tied cases since 9/11, including:

• A 30-year-old Muslim man, Naveed Afzal Haq, who went on a shooting rampage at a Jewish community center in Seattle, announcing "I'm a Muslim-American; I'm angry at Israel."

I don't have the time, but I wish there was an ongoing thread with just these types of incidents, I know there's a few other threads that have the info, but I think it'd be good to see these isolated not with all the other world events.

The mosques are watching us, and our reactions to their provocations --- very, very closely. I wish we watched them as closely as they do us.

5 years ago the FBI was telling the American people that Jihadists would recruit online, that there was no longer a need for physical presence to recruit young Jihadists. The world has gotten much smaller, global neighborhood, etc.

3 years ago during the DHS creation debates, the FBI was telling us that airport racial profiling wouldn't work because Jihadists would recruit Muslims of Balkan and Caucasian stock to pass through security checkpoints.

Today, now that a Bosnian Muslim has committed an act of terror on American soil, exactly as the FBI predicted 3 years ago would happen, the FBI now denies any links to online recruitment of marginalized American Muslim youth, and any link to Jihadists who specifically were targeting young men such as Talovic.

As the FBI discovered, you can't eat your cake and have it too. Homegrown terrorism follows many paths, and this man's path almost certainly has a internet nexus. I doubt we'll ever hear about it.

(Possibly because the FBI would rather monitor the websites than force their closure though)

i was at a gas station digging in my pocket for change. pulled out my Rosary, and held it in one hand while I retrieved change in my pocket with the othe hand.
The dark skinned guy at the register looked away and closed his eyes. It was not like a vampire and a string of garlic.
But this turning his head and and closing his eyes he did do.

I was leaving and wished him a good evening and I think it was like a rain cloud found him. I just left. But I will never forget that.



May go back and tip him a takeout order box of boneless spare ribs...

I am starting to believe that it is more important, than I had thought, to demonstrate your faith in some quiet yet noticeable way.

Speaking of pig I wonder what the actions are or could be if the Muslims all knew we are now in the year of the Pig, and have a Presidential candidate born in the year of the Pig.And the govenator in CA was born in the year of the Pig which makes perfect sense in many of his films how he dispathes terrorists. I think here in the US we should play this up a whole lot more.

Here's an incomplete list of Sudden Jihad Syndrome terrorists, almost all of whom were described as acting alone by the cops and/or FBI.  Their acts -- murder, attempted murder, battery and destruction of property -- were almost universally described as, "not terrorism."

In almost every case, the fact that they were members of the Religion of Peace was the last piece of information revealed by the media -- if revealed at all.  Often we would never know except for some obscure blogger.

Once identified as Muslims, a chorus of bleeding heart apologists always rises, providing defenses, causes and excuses for the horrific acts of these terrorists.

Ali Abu Kamal
Palestinian English teacher Ali Abu Kamal went to the 86th floor observation deck of the Empire State Building, pulled out a gun, and opened fire, killing one person and wounding six others before killing himself.

Ali R. Warrayat
An Arizona Home Depot employee jumped out of the car’s path. To drown out the man’s yells, Warrayat reached over to his car radio and blasted Arabic music before crashing through the front doors.

Charles Bishop (Bishra)
A note written by the 15-year-old boy who crashed a Cessna into a Tampa office building indicated he supported Osama bin Laden and that the act was deliberate, authorities say.

Haider Mohammed
Contacted by Palm Springs Police, FBI investigators described Muslim who was arrested after threatening to 'Kill All Jews' as "not a person of interest."

Hesham Mohamed Ali Hadayet
The suspect, Egyptian-born Hesham Mohamed Ali Hadayet, left two people dead and five injured at the El Al airlines ticket counter at Los Angeles International Airport before being fatally shot by a security guard.

Ibrihim Ahmed
Cab driver, Ibrihim Ahmed, tried to run over two customers and was arrested and charged with assault, attempted homicide and theft.  One of the passengers, Andrew Nelson, managed to outrun the cab but Jeremy Invus was taken to the Vanderbilt University Medical Center with serious injuries.

John Muhammad
Federal prosecutors filed a criminal complaint, charging Beltway Sniper John Muhammad with 20 felony counts, including extortion and intent to commit murder.

Marc Lepine (Gamal Gharbhi)
For 45 minutes on Dec. 6, 1989 an enraged gunman roamed the corridors of Montreal's École Polytechnique and killed 14 women.

Mohammed Ali Alayed
After apparently undergoing a religious awakening, a Saudi Arabian student in Houston killed his Jewish friend by slashing his throat.

Mohammed Reza Taheri-azar
Just-graduated student named Mohammed Reza Taheri-azar, 22, and an Iranian immigrant, drove a sport utility vehicle into a crowded pedestrian zone at University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill. He struck nine people.

Naveed Afzal Haq
Eyewitnesses told the Seattle News that Mr. Haq announced, "I'm a Muslim American; I'm angry at Israel," and then began shooting. He killed one woman and wounded five others.

Omeed Aziz Popal
Up to 14 hurt in San Francisco hit-and-run spree. Seven are critical. The driver believed to have struck and killed a man in Fremont earlier.

Sayed Khaled El-Waraky
The Virginia college student drove his Jaguar into a crowd outside the Glen Cove Golf Club, injuring four young men, two critically. "He accelerated up the center lane of the parking lot and into the crowd. Bodies were tossed in the air," said a bystander.

Sulejman Talovic
Police Tuesday identified the gunman accused in Monday night's Trolley Square shooting as Sulejman Talovic, an 18-year-old Bosnian refugee who lived in Salt Lake City.  In a video recording  of the event, Sulejman is heard yelling "Allah Akbar, Allah Akbar," -- followed by gunfire.

When you have victims of Sudden Jihad Syndrome piling up all over the country, the reasonable person would conclude -- that's terrorism.

Whether the root cause of these savage attacks is in the genes of these maniacs, their religion or the result of a conspiracy is completely irrelevant.

"FBI--- "Sudden Jihad Syndrome" : It's just an awkward growing pain all Muslim boys go through as they reach jihadolescence..."

Having lived in Indonenisa, Malaysia and S'pore for a few years I have a few experiences with these people.

Some are mild and sweet - underlying that in others - is a rage ... ready to pop out at any moment.

"...Here's an incomplete list of Sudden Jihad Syndrome terrorists..."

Thanks for this list.

So far, it doesn't appear like there's a "copy-cat" syndrome as yet. Can you imagine if there had been just four simultaneous sniper-shootings around the country like those of John Mohammed and Lee Malvo?

I remember a Monty Python sketch where people suddenly turned Scotish,kilt and all, turned North and headed for Scotland.

Is that where they came up where thier prognosis......?!!!#@$
Life imitating art imitating life imitating....
Haven't got an answer so lift one off TV.

People are dying because these people(jihadis) are murdering them becuase they believe that they are somehow filfulling their religious righteousness or justice.

What about our justice and the preservation of life ,liberty and the pursuit of happiness?

Screw the prognosis, spare us the drivel....Do Something to save our people, our culture and our nation. It's like we need sterilized news to keep us from noticing that, as the ever growing list points out, we have a big recurrance of death/murder growing in our misdst.

Somebody, as mentioned before, should make a Muslim domestic terror body count list or keyword to post these stories. Maybe this is the only way that people can have the necessary vigilance/awareness because the gov't does not seem to be advising us as to what to watch out for in our lives, if they cannot tell us that it is a repeating theme of inspired violence.

Course the story could be a plant becuase the govt cant come right out and say it without offending certain people.

My 2 cents.

I will be replaceing the lions at the gate with fiberglass Piglet statues........

Here's another one:

"Man hit by cab after driver made anti-Semitic comments, witnesses say

Driver said he hitler was trying to "cleanse" world of the Jews

Sheila Burke


A Nashville cabbie made anti-Semitic statements and praised Adolph Hitler’s campaign against Jews during a religious argument that culminated when he ran over one of the passengers as he left the taxi, witnesses said during a hearing today.

The cab driver, Ibrahim Ahmed, said Hitler was “trying to rid the world of Jews,” the alleged victim, Jeremie Imbus, told the court.
“I just remember …(being)… I guess the word is ‘shocked,’” Imbus said of the Feb. 18 incident.
