Austrian Islamists were in the process of drawing up plans to set up a caliphate in Austria, a massive raid conducted by over 800 Austrian police officers has revealed. around 800 Austrian police officers conducted a series of raids in the capital of Vienna and in Graz which saw 16 separate domestic premises searched, and led to the arrest of fourteen radical Islamists who are thought to be connected to the Islamic State terror group.

Police say that the raid was the result of a two-year long investigation into the radical Salafist network Die Presse reports.

Of the fourteen Islamists arrested, three were women and a handful were Islamic preachers. The authorities said that they also found 140 digital storage items which will be forensically examined by the domestic intelligence service the Office for the Protection of the Constitution.

The public prosecutor’s office said that at least eight of those arrested will be charged with membership of a terrorist organization and creation of a criminal organization. Christian Pilnacek, head of the criminal justice department in the Ministry of Justice claimed that the Islamists spoke of creating a “State of God” or an Islamic Caliphate theocracy.

Police also allege that the group had recruited at least 40 people to engage in jihad.

Pilnacek said that the investigation was ramped up to an operational phase in April of last year, though many of the Islamists had been on the radar of authorities since 2015. Sources told Die Presse that there were still ongoing investigations, and that more Islamists were “in the background” and could be subject to arrest at a future date.

It’s called insurrection & the penalty should be death. Every western country needs to wake up & go after Islamism for what it is.

Not just Austria:

Former CAIR, Chairman of the Board, Omar Ahmad:

“Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant,”

“The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth.”

Why do we even tolerate these monsters in our society? We must be suicidal to do so.

They’re plotting everywhere in the world. It’s part of their ideology - izzlam is a world-domination ideology cleverly disguised as a religion.
