This sounds like a semi-professional hit. I suspect the roots of this go back to Bangladesh.
In 1971, Pakistan, then called West Pakistan, invaded Bangladesh and committed a horrific genocide. It was particularly brutal and nasty, with as many as 3 million people killed.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1971_Bangladesh_genocide
Some groups within Bangladesh joined with the invaders to slaughter their own countrymen. Then after the genocide, nothing really happened to the collaborators until 2008-2010, when there was enough political shift to create a war crimes tribunal, which is ongoing.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Crimes_Tribunal_(Bangladesh)
Some 1,600 identified suspects were implicated, and there was huge amounts of bad blood, with the still extant radical organizations demanding their leaders be released.
Back to today. This Imam arrived from Bangladesh about two years ago. It is not obvious which sect (of many) this mosque is affiliated with. But if it becomes known, then it will be easier to know who their friends and enemies are.
Somehow, I find myself completely unsympathetic with the Moslems; and actually hoping that there will be an epidemic of this sort of thing.
Backlash from thanks Muslims.
I heard a reporter say the attack was unprovoked.. I guess 7 million dead in middle east is not enough for these liberals in the media.
Yup. I’m betting the shooter was a member of one of the media’s protected groups. But they’ll keep amping up the anti-Trump angle until the truth comes out, and then they’ll report it on page 24 beneath the back-to-school ads.
Has nothing to do with Rapes, beheadings, terrorist actions; it is all trumps fault.
Company, black flag.
A very convenient hit, to set up an attack on Trump by a righteous muslim. It would shape the narrative nicely.
No no no, the political campaign message of those people is repeated as gospel by the media.
Any Arab/MEer looks like a Hispanic. Very little chance that this is a Hispanic job.
I am wondering about the same motive.
There are a lot of people walking around who are struggling with the breakdown of our society and culture.These could so easily be set off by the actions of “radicalized muslims”.
None of those in our government seem to care about the inevitable consequences of some of our citizens becoming fed up, and reacting with equal violence.
It really is something the “resident muslims” should be warned about, that the actions of the jihadists could cause people to seek an “eye for an eye”, because our country is free, and the “rule of law” they count on to protect them is becoming unraveled from the top.
Muslims cannot whine about Islamaphobia when their fellow believers take the lives of our citizens, and expect our government, which they do not recognize as superior the that of Islam, to protect them from those Americans they have offended.
They have picked a very dangerous time to try to infiltrate the USA, unless they want to turn from Sharia, Islam, and Mohammed’s 7th century rules.
Instead, they should give up the burqua, female genital mutilation, allegiance to “Allah”, wife-beating, honor killing, and those silly beards.
They should understand and accept that they are expected to assimilate, swear upon the Bible, not get all offended by dogs, pork, and alcohol, and forget their expectation that we will put up with their demands to pray to Allah five times a day, even while at work.
No more calls to prayer blasting all over the local neighborhoods, either. They can get text messages like the rest of us, so as not to disturb our neighbors.
We must do our part, to demand that our elected local, state, and national leaders man up and tell that that they have decided to immigrate here, and that comes with consequences, such as adapting to our laws, customs, and culture.
If they do not wish to do this, they have no right to whine, and they can always migrate back to an Islamic country, where they will not have to suffer the wicked ways of us infidels.
Have you seen the middle east lately? They are killing each other like its going out of style.
Bring a ton of them over here and we are supposed to be shocked they kill each other here?
The right needs no false flag ops, the leftist radicals and their muslim nutjobs naturally kill each other without any goading or persuading.
Or an intel hit of some kind.
In the middle of a speech to 12,000 people in Louisiana, Trump orders a hit on an Imam, He MUST be highly skilled!
But think. If the Assailant is shown to be Amish, how can Trump be responsible? After all the media tells us that the Amish are 97% for Hillary.
You think I would care who shot the muslims dead but I do not.
Good to know. So now we know Trump didn’t cause him to do it. It was more than likely the democrats and the Nazi gun grabbers who paid him to do it.
What’s really amazing is how quickly the crowd had pre-printed signs reading “We want justice”.
I think I enjoyed your response best.
As for this case, here is my take:
Editor of the New York Daily News:
“I have this quote from an unidentifiable source. Don’t ask me where I got it from. First Amendment. Anyway, if you value your job, and I know you all do, you’ll get me a story that works this into the third paragraph.
“Today.”
“That’s not what America is about,” said local resident Khairul Islam, 33. “We blame Donald Trump for this ... Trump and his drama has created Islamophobia.”
Okay. These victims are serving Bangladeshi refugees in a neighborhood where Bangladeshis can come and go without notice. In Bangladesh we read about sectarian conflicts and numerous murders. The killer in this instance came up behind the victims without notice, shot them and ran off with people only noticing his youth and apparent dark or medium skin.
Of course the NYPD will be directed to look for and a white youth with the stars and bars on his bedroom wall. Probably they’ll look for youths with Trump stickers.
