BLACKMAIL LETTERS TO THE INHABITANTS OF GENTOFTE WHICH IS A SUBURB OF COPENHAGEN, DENMARK.
The following letter of intimidation and demands for Jitzya appeared yesterday Dec 16 2009 in Jyllandsposten Danmark.
http://jp.dk/indland/krimi/article1921938.ece
This letter is dated Dec 3rd 2009 and was mailed to all families of Gentofte.
,,For some time we have kept you under our scope. You are blessed with a lovely family and we hope you appreciate this fortune of live, nothing is static. We apologize for the poorly chosen time of approach (Your holy month), and will respectfully keep a distance whilst you and your family enjoys your RR.
Our lives may sometimes turn down a road we didn´t foresee, on some occasions we can change this course, on others we can´t.
Your live is about to take such a turn, and it is up to you if you want to get back on track, entirely up to you, we might add!
In our country, we are so familiar to changes, radical changes, so we know what we are talking about. Your part of the world have exploited us for centuries (not you personally though), so in all fairness it would be appropriate if you lend a helping hand.
For some reason we can´t get your government to take appropriate course of action, hence this solution.
We are civilized people, although you may think otherwise, but in order to be taken seriously, we have to stand by our terms and statements. For this purpose, we have hired ,,local contractors#, surprisingly easy in Denmark, who will carry out the more uncivilized part, let´s hope it doesn´t come to that.
In short we request you to deliver 215.000,- Danish Kroner ( can be converted into USD or Pound Sterling), details will follow later on. We will give you 6 weeks from today´s date. The amount will not break you financially, we know, and we never use the same beneficial twice.
Obviously there are certain rules, simple ones.
- Do not share this with anyone or anybody.
- Meet our terms promptly.
If you fail to comply, and we will find out, we will have to initiate the next step, which will be disabling a family member. Second step, if necessary, will be more fatal. There is no room for negotiation or second chance. Once we press the red button, others will take over The people who will carry out this task do not know us and we do not know them. Due to the way they are getting paid, they will perform, trust us! We hope you will take this seriously, we have nothing to lose.
We will get back to you shortly.
Regards,
We’re getting JITZYA thru the IRS....
Is this for real?
Ping
Perhaps someone could translate the article for us. The letter, as it appears on the website, is in English. I noticed this is a sidebar a Weasel Zippers.
Once we press the red button others will take over? W-H-A-T?
Horns made from the crescent moon lol.
Sounds like a simple extortion letter rather than a demand for jizya.
I would say the same thing........except for it seems this letter was sent to everyone in the town or for the whole town according to the article.
It's really not that clear though.
I’d be inclined to reply that they can come in person to collect their USD $41k (215k kronor)...in hot lead.
What's the difference?
This sounds like a “Nigerian letter” on the pushy side. It is probably just a scam, but a clever law-enforcement body could rather easily set up a sting to catch the perps.
It almost reads like someone pretending to be Muslim.
For one thing the letter does not explicitly say that you owe us this money because of Islamic law.
Also, according to Wikipedia the jizya is supposed to be paid to an Islamic state.
It's actually not even clear that the writers are Islamic. They could just be using that as a means of threat.
The fact that the whole town received the letters could just be a way of increasing the likelihood that a few suckers will pay up.
To me it sounds like the letter is implying that the individual family receiving it has been under observation. If every family received the same letter and amount that doesn't make sense.
It's a distinction without a difference. This is how a "state" gets started: the local thugs start putting the bite on anyone who looks weak. After a while, guess who makes the rules?
Isn't it obvious that this is how Islam got started under the thug murderer who started the "religion"? It's been an extortion scam from the start - obey me or die, pay me or die, give me your little girls or die, let me take over your country or die, am I repeating myself here?
What's the difference? There is none. Even if this is just a few freelancers, what if the locals roll over? After a while the citizens will be paying two masters: the previous alleged "State", and the emergent real one. Unless the former does something about the latter, eventually the roles will be switched.
Welcome to the real Third World, Islamic Hellhole version. You think the "Kingdom" of Saudi Arabia is different in any meaningful way?
It's all a protection racket.
It’s also not even clear the writer is in Denmark. He refers to “our country” and “your part of the world”. This could even be another type of Nigerian letter. Nigeria is 50% Muslim BTW.
You could be right. My statements are based on the supposition that it’s from immigrants in Denmark, which is not unreasonable. I think that’s the same assumption pretty much everyone else is going on.
From the point of view of the Muslim rulers, jizya was a material proof of the non-Muslims' acceptance of subjection to the state and its laws, "just as for the inhabitants it was a concrete continuation of the taxes paid to earlier regimes."
The irony is this jiyza demand (with explicit death threat) is from a suburb of Copenhagen. Copenhagen, host to the giant global summit on the "world's greatest threat to mankind" - the weather).
"The time for talk is over" - so said Obama today at the biggest science and political hoax in human history, in what wold be the greatest redistribution of wealth to one continent and one religion (Africa and Islam).
sounds like a letter for the IRS. Maybe both groups work together.
