On November 14, 2021, a man detonated an improvised explosive device near the main entrance of Liverpool Women’s Hospital in England. Only he died, though the taxi driver who had just dropped him off was also injured. Although he botched it, investigators concluded that his was a terrorist attack that was planned months in advance.
Emad al-Swealmeen, 32, the would-be terrorist in question, was a born Muslim who arrived in the UK in 2014 and applied for asylum by claiming he was a Syrian refugee. It turned out he was from Iraq or Jordan, and his asylum application was rejected.
Soon thereafter, Emad formally converted to Christianity; in 2015 he was baptized, and in 2017 confirmed, at Liverpool Cathedral. Although it is common for Muslim migrants to pretend to be Christian in order to receive asylum—based on their projected but erroneous belief that Western nations will naturally be more welcoming of Christians—those Christians close to him argue that his conversion was genuine:

He thought he would be more warmly received if he said he was Christian instead of Muslim? This guy sure didn’t understand the current state of the West.
The Brits let them in.
Now, enjoy...
There are statements from people who knew the guy that he hung out at the local mosque *all the time*. Published by the Daily Mail.
For some reason the author here does not pick up on that, instead going off on some historic tangent.
Mindboggling? Hardly. Except perhaps for this bungling writer.
They’ll never infiltrate Japan.
This is why Poland is not letting them in.
The Spanish drove the moslems out of Spain in 1492. They thought!
They had to do another expulsion of moslems in 1611 to get the remainder out.
Things you learn as you get older.
Well, well, well... a Christian or really a devout Muslim? Few islamic scholar have interpreted Ayat 5:51 Taqiyya as to mean to lie by the tongue and not the heart!
