Knifeman shouting 'Allah is great' forces tourist to her knees as he holds a blade to her neck...
Daily Mail ^ | 7/14/15 | HANNAH ROBERTS

A tourist was forced to her knees at knifepoint at Rome's Colosseum in a terrifying attack that recalled an ISIS-style execution.

Hundreds of horrified visitors to the Italian landmark looked on as the attacker held a kitchen knife to the neck of a 26-year-old woman and yelled 'Allah is great' and 'It is God that sends me'.

The man held Chiara Frisco hostage for several minutes as he yelled religious fanaticism at the crowd with police powerless to act.

One witness said: 'It seemed like a scene from ISIS.

'He made the girl get down on her knees like you see in the terrorists' videos, while he held a knife to her throat.

'The only thing missing was the orange jumpsuit.'

Others told Il Messaggero he was yelling 'incomprehensible things, but among them "Allah is great".'

And even though he shouts praises to Allah, we are not allowed to say this was Islamic terror or Islamic extremism. Instead, officially, we have no idea why this dude went berserk in the manner in which he did.

Ain’t Third World immigration great?

PS

“with police powerless to act”

Why is that? No scope on any rifle nearby?

Wtf? Don’t Italian cops carry firearms? According to the simple write up there were police on the scene.

The crowd should have attached ropes to his arms and legs and mistakenly tried to drag him in different directions at the same time.

This was in the middle of the coliseum with tourists all around. Maybe there really wasn’t a shot that would have stopped with him?
