Woman screaming 'Allahu Akbar' charged in Toronto store attack
Toronto Sun ^ | June 6, 2017 | Sam Pazzano

Posted on 06/06/2017 8:15:57 PM PDT by Hieronymus

A Scarborough woman swore allegiance to ISIS in a Scarborough courtroom where she appeared to face allegations that she swung a golf club at hardware store employees while screaming threats and Islamic chants.

Before Tuesday’s proceedings started, Justice of the Peace Alice Napier asked Rehab Dughmosh, 32, to identify herself in court — but the accused woman didn’t initially answer the question.

“ISIS — I pledge to the leader of the believers — Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi,” blurted the woman through an interpreter.

Al-Baghdadi is the leader of the Sunni militant jihadist group known as the Islamic State of Iraq (ISIS) and the Levant.

Dughmosh, who wore a black niqab and a forest-green prison sweat suit, agreed to “stay in jail,” rather than have a bail hearing at College Park courts Tuesday.

Dughmosh was remanded in custody and will appear via video at Scarborough Court of Justice on June 21.

Sources told the Toronto Sun that a woman, wearing an ISIS bandana, allegedly entered Cedarbrae Mall in Scarborough Saturday afternoon and then the Canadian Tire store, where she walked to the paint section.

She allegedly ranted “Allahu Akbar” — God (Allah) is greater — before swinging a golf club at employees — at the same time of bloody terrorist attacks in London, sources said.

The woman was restrained by several employees, after she pulled out a large knife from under her clothing, according to police. The knife was pried from her hand and an employee suffered non-life-threatening injuries, said a police release.

Dughmosh is facing seven charges including two counts of assault with a weapon, assault, two counts of possession of a weapon, threaten death or bodily harm, and carrying a concealed weapon.

At least in Canada some people still know how to confront some one with a knife rather than waiting for police to show up. Of course, it helps that is was a woman and that it was Canadian Tire. Not at all the same thing as men assaulting a hang out for young professionals.

First I’ve heard of this, though I’ve been busy. I couldn’t find anything on Freerepublic about it. Has anyone else in Canuckistan heard anything?

In many states i suspect she would have been shot if she acted like that and than pulled a knife. I know i am not letting a person with a blade weapon get close to me. You have a 90% chance of surviving a gunshot; a 70% chance of surviving a knife wound.

Swinging a golf club? I wish someone would have picked up a baseball bat and went Negan on her sorry ass. I would have paid to see that.

I’m guessing furniture-making Amish, Menorah-bearing Orthodox Jew, Swedish Pineapple salesman, Norwegian helicopter pilot or rural Mennonite with an eating disorder.

Of course, there is the possibility that I might be wrong.

The judge will sentence her to 10 years in rehab.

I’m sure that there was no danger of being shot in a Canadian TIre in Toronto unless someone else came there with the same motivation as she, and was better armed.

Interesting stat on knife founds, but I wonder how they come up with the knife wound figures. I’d bet that there are many less serious knife wounds that never are taken to ER and thus never documented. I’d also think that the quality of the knife wound would vary greatly with the skill of the one weilding the knife. I’d much rather take my chances with a 30-something woman with a knife than just about anone with a gun. Guns are great equalizers.

Conceal carry legal class, intro trauma first aid class and intro tactical knife class. Others have quoted this figure too. Of course there are numerous variables but i believe a 9mm wound would cause less damage than a wound in the same spot with a large knife.

.....
God has nothing to do with the phrase “Allahu akbar”; it means “Allah is greater. Theses people worship Allah and not God.
