Canada: Muslim driver hit cop with truck, tried to stab him to death, then hit four others, “wanted to kill people”

OCT 7, 2019 9:00 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER

“As a police officer, we always try to get what happened, and we’re always conscious in attempting to determine why it happened,” he said in sum. “We don’t always get (the) why.”

Yeah, that “why” is a real mystery. But here is a clue. The Islamic State issued this call in September 2014:

So O muwahhid, do not let this battle pass you by wherever you may be. You must strike the soldiers, patrons, and troops of the tawaghit. Strike their police, security, and intelligence members, as well as their treacherous agents. Destroy their beds. Embitter their lives for them and busy them with themselves. If you can kill a disbelieving American or European — especially the spiteful and filthy French — or an Australian, or a Canadian, or any other disbeliever from the disbelievers waging war, including the citizens of the countries that entered into a coalition against the Islamic State, then rely upon Allah, and kill him in any manner or way however it may be….If you are not able to find an IED or a bullet, then single out the disbelieving American, Frenchman, or any of their allies. Smash his head with a rock, or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car, or throw him down from a high place, or choke him, or poison him….

“Driver ‘wanted to kill people’: Trial begins over 2017 high-speed street rampage in downtown Edmonton,” by Jonny Wakefield, National Post, October 2, 2019:

Abdulahi Hasan Sharif intended to kill people when he led police on a high-speed chase through downtown Edmonton after allegedly attacking Const. Mike Chernyk, Crown prosecutors argued on his first day of trial.

Sharif, 32, is accused of 11 offences, including five counts of attempted murder in connection with the events of Sept. 30, 2017. He pleaded not guilty to the offences after jury selection Monday….

“Once you have heard the evidence, it is the Crown’s position that you will be convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that Abdulahi Sharif wanted to kill people,” Crown prosecutor Elizabeth Wheaton told the jury. “He tried first to murder Const. Chernyk, and then during an extremely dangerous driving pattern, he fled from police causing bodily harm to four strangers.

“It is the Crown’s position he intentionally tried to kill these people by hitting them in that U-haul truck.”

Sharif sat in the prisoner’s box next to an interpreter, who is translating the proceedings into Somali….

Court heard Chernyk was alone manning a traffic stop around 8 p.m. “Suddenly, he noticed headlights coming toward him,” Wheaton said. “He heard the sound of a vehicle accelerating. He tried to move out of the way but it was too late.

A white Chevy Malibu “plowed into him and he flew through the air,” she continued. “A number of bystanders tried to come to his aid as he laid on his back and tried to get his bearings.”

“But suddenly the driver of that vehicle was there. A black man in dark clothing with a knife, and he was trying to stab Const. Chernyk in the head with that knife.

The bystanders saw the knife and they fled, fearing for their lives. Const. Chernyk was now alone, fighting for his.”

Court heard Cherynk kept his hand on his gun as his assailant fought for it. Eventually they disengaged and the attacker fled into the night.

A few hours later, around 11 p.m., officers manning a containment point at 112 Avenue and Wayne Gretzky Drive stopped a man driving a U-Haul. When an officer took the driver’s licence, the vehicle sped off.

Police followed the speeding vehicle into downtown Edmonton, Wheaton said, reaching speeds of up to 85 km/h. When the chase reached 109 Street, the speeding truck turned into the alley The Pint nightclub and struck two pedestrians. Two more were hit near Audreys Books, located at 107 Street and Jasper Avenue, before a constable in a police vehicle knocked the van onto its side and pulled out a suspect….

“The Crown’s position is none of the collisions were accidents,” Wheaton said. “Mr. Sharif could have avoided people in that alley but he didn’t. He intentionally hit them. He could have stayed on the road by Audreys Books but he intentionally drove into a crowd of people.”…

RCMP officer Ned Mirjanic, a sergeant with the Integrated National Security Enforcement Team (INSET), testified he received a call about Chernyk 9 p.m. He assembled his team at EPS headquarters a few hours later, at which point city police and RCMP management determined the file should be passed to INSET….

“As a police officer, we always try to get what happened, and we’re always conscious in attempting to determine why it happened,” he said in sum. “We don’t always get (the) why.”

There are no safe muslims.

Always treat all muslims as if they are loaded.

One never knows when one might start following the instructions and example of their prophet.

Hey, if you let him into your country, you have to give him religious freedom. It’s against his religion to let all those infidels live.

Man charged in Edmonton attacks was ordered deported from U.S. in 2011

The Somali refugee accused of stabbing an Edmonton police constable on the weekend and running down four pedestrians was ordered to be deported from the United States in 2011 by a U.S. immigration judge, CBC News has learned.

In July 2011, U.S. Customs and Border Protection transferred Abdulahi Hasan Sharif into the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement at Otay Mesa Detention Center in San Diego, Calif., according to Jennifer D. Elzea, acting press secretary for the ICE office of public affairs.

Two months later, on Sept. 22, 2011, an immigration judge ordered Sharif removed to Somalia. Sharif waived his right to appeal that decision.

But Sharif was released on Nov. 23, 2011, on an ICE order of supervision, "due to a lack of likelihood of his removal in the reasonably foreseeable future," Elzea said in a statement to CBC News.

Sharif failed to report to the ICE enforcement and removal operations centre on his scheduled date, Jan. 24, 2012.

"Efforts by ERO San Diego to locate him were not successful," Elzea said.

Sharif had no known criminal history at the time of his dealings with ICE, she said.

Sharif crossed the border into Canada in 2012, Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale said Monday in Ottawa.

yeah that why is always a big mystery, even when it is obvious. Because that is the politically correct position.

The Canadians seem to have a way to ignore mass murder and call it social justice. Wait until the muslims enact sharia as law of the land.

The Somali refugee accused of stabbing ...

George HW Bush did this. His grandson is quietly running for higher office in Texas.

Islam is a war plan.

Currently enjoying success. Has enabled greater penetration into Europe than at any time since the late 17th century.

Be enriched with that steak knife stuck in your heart. I wish 4 chan would get off its ass and mass produce memes in every language to tell the truth about Islam.

Liberals blame Islamic terrorist attacks like this on generic “mental illness” ... and then wonder why people are afraid of the mentally ill.
