SUDDEN JIHAD SYNDROME (SJS): Sudden Jihad Sundrome is individual or small, un-attached groups of radicalized Islamics who decide to carry out Jihad, or Holy War, against those amongst whom they live. It usually involves a single person, but may include small groups, who are radicalized in their Mosques, their readings, their conversations, or otherwise, and who then decide on their own to wage war against those whom they live amongst.

It is a very real and very dangerous occurance that a nation ignores, or tries to explain away with other politically correct or sociological explanations at their grave peril and risk. What follows are instances of SJS within the US since 9/11/2001. This list will be added to as more are discovered to have happened, or as new instances occur.

This list represents the most publicized of the SJS events in America. There are undoubtedly many more. Many of these events have been attempted to be explained away by politicians and the media as acts of insanity or mentally disturbed individuals, where the tie and link to Islamic Jihad is either not reported or ignored...and this, in many cases when the perpetrator themself indicate that this is what their attack was about, waging Jihad against America and American citizens.

The following are several instance of quotes, letters, and emails from the perpetrators. Many of these individuals, according to testimony of witnesses at the time, were heard to shout, "Allahu Akbar,” as the committed their acts of terror and Jihad, which means, "God is Great," and is a known cry of Islamic Jihad terrorists around the world.

From: Charles Bishra (Bishop), who crashed a Cessna aircraft into the Bank of America tower in Tampa, FL.

"First of all, Osama bin Laden is absolutely justified in the terror he has caused on 9-11. He has brought a mighty nation to its knees! God blesses him and the others who helped make September 11th happen

"The U.S. will have to face the consequences for its horrific actions against the Palestinian people and Iraqis by its allegiance with the monstrous Israelis -- who want nothing short of world domination!

"You will pay -- God help you -- and I will make you pay!

"There will be more coming! Al Qaeda and other organizations have met with me several times to discuss the option of me joining. I didn't.

"This is an operation done by me only. I had no other help, although I am acting on their behalf."

---

From: Lee Mlavo who wrote the following during the trial for his part in the Beltway (and other) sniper killings.

"We will kill them all. Jihad . . . Allah Akbar!

“Our minarets are our bayonets, Our mosques are our baracks, Our believers are our soldiers.”

---

From: Sgt. Hasan Akbar, after his attack and from his diary, who attacked his own US Armny comrades on the eve of battle in Iraq.

"I do not like the military. They have too much control over people's lives. I suppose I am just anti-government…. A Muslim should see himself as a Muslim only. His loyalty should be to Islam only."

"I will have to decide to kill my Muslim brothers fighting for Saddam Hussein or my battle buddies.

"I may not have killed any Muslims, but being in the Army is the same thing. I may have to make a choice very soon on who to kill.

"You guys are coming into our countries, and you're going to rape our women and kill our children.

"I am not going to do anything about it as long as I stay here. But as soon as I am in Iraq, I am going to try and kill as many of them as possible," speaking in his diary of his fellow soldiers.

---

From: Mohammed Taheri-azar who drove his SUV into students on the UNiversity of North Carolina campus.

"In the name of Allah, the merciful, the compassionate.

"I am writing this letter to inform you of my reasons for premeditating and attempting to murder citizens and residents of the United States of America on Friday, March 3, 2006 in the city of Chapel Hill, North Carolina by running them over with my automobile and stabbing them with a knife if the opportunities are presented to me by Allah.

"I did intend to use a handgun to murder the citizens and residents of Chapel Hill, North Carolina but the process of receiving a permit for a handgun in this city is highly restricted and out of my reach at the present, most likely due to my foreign nationality.

"I am a servant of Allah. I am 22 years of age and I was born in Tehran, Iran. My father, mother and older sister immigrated to the United States in 1985 when I was two years of age and I've lived in the United States ever since.

"I attended elementary, middle and high school in North Carolina and I was accepted into the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I began my college career in August 2001 and graduated in December 2005 with a bachelor's degree in psychology and philosophy with Allah's help.

"Due to the killing of believing men and women under the direction of the United States government, I have decided to take advantage of my presence on United States soil on Friday, March 3, 2006 to take the lives of as many Americans and American sympathizers as I can in order to punish the United States for their immoral actions around the world.

"In the Qur'an, Allah states that the believing men and women have permission to murder anyone responsible for the killing of other believing men and women. I know that the Qur'an is a legitimate and authoritative holy scripture since it is completely validated by modern science and also mathematically encoded with the number 19 beyond human ability. After extensive contemplation and reflection, I have made the decision to exercise the right of violent retaliation that Allah has given me to the fullest extent to which I am capable at present.

"I have chosen the particular location on the University campus as my target since I know there is a high likelihood that I will kill several people before being killed myself or jailed and sent to prison if Allah wills. Allah's commandments are never to be questioned and all of Allah's commandments must be obeyed. Those who violate Allah's commandments and purposefully follow human fabrication and falsehood as their religion will burn in fire for eternity in accordance with Allah's will."

From: Major Nidal Hasan who killed 13 and wounded 29 at Ft. Hood, TX.

“It’s getting harder and harder for Muslims in the service to morally justify being in a military that seems constantly engaged against fellow Muslims.

"We love death more than you love life.

"There was a grenade thrown amongst a group of American soldiers. One of the soldiers, feeling that it was too late for everyone to flee, jumped on the grave with the intention of saving his comrades. Indeed he saved them. To say that this soldier committed suicide is inappropriate. It's more appropriate to say he is a brave hero that sacrificed his life for a more noble cause. Scholars have paralleled this to suicide bombers whose intention, by sacrificing their lives, is to help save Muslims by killing enemy soldiers. If one suicide bomber can kill 100 enemy soldiers because they were caught off guard that would be considered a strategic victory.

"Muslims should stand up and fight the aggressor, we should not be in the war in the first place. Maybe people should strap bombs on themselves and go to Time Square," he told another officer after the Little Rock Arnasas shooting of two Army recruited by a fellow Muslim.

"I'm going to do good work for God," he told a neghbor the day of the shootings as he gave her a Koran and left fo the base.

Can there be any dount about the motivation of these individuals? There absolutely can not.

We must demand that our elected and appointed representatives and officials respond seriously and appropriately to this Jihad within our own country. Ignoring it is not an option. Being politically correct about it is not an option. Trying to call it something other than what it is is not an option. American citizens are being killed and maimed by the enemy within our own borders and we must call it exactly what it is and respond directly and forthrightly.

Any Mosque, any Imamm, and Muslim who teaches and promotess Jihad against America is not practising religion...they are engaging in open war and treason against these United States. We welcome religous folks whose basis is fumdamental moral principle, and who respects our God-given rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We reject totalitariansm and tyranny, whatever the source.

And while we're at it...Mr. President, do an absolute, 180 degree ABOUT FACE on the monstrociy you have proposed to try foreign, irregular terrorists in on our soil in U.S. courts!

Freelance jihad get 30 years

January 8th, 2007
by Theseus

"A Pakistani immigrant was sentenced to 30 years in prison Monday for hatching an unsuccessful plot to blow up a busy Manhattan subway station as revenge for wartime abuses of Iraqis."

Shahawar Matin Siraj attempted a one man jihad op much like Mohammed Taheri-azar who tried to run down half of the UNC-Chapel Hill student body with an SUV last year. Siraj’s sentence does not bode well for jihadi Taheri-azar. They both confessed similiar motives. I would hope that Taheri-azar would get at least life without parole since he carried out his personal jihad.

"The man who hit nine people with a sport utility vehicle on the UNC-Chapel Hill campus wrote a letter to a television reporter saying he read the Quran’s 114 chapters 15 times and found that the Muslim holy book justified the attack."

[Jeff Head]

I have also looked at it pretty extensively. Cho's manifesto and his emails (which there have been tons of them posted) make absolutely no mention of any Islamic Jihad connection.

There was no "Allah Akbar" while he was doing it.

I do not counted the VA Tech massacre as a SJS. Something a whole lot more concrete would have to come up, and at this point I do not expect that is going to happen.

[rlmorel]

I suppose you voted for Obama, Kerry and Gore? Not that it would surprise me given that make an intellectual leap like that.

[Freedom2specul8]

Thanks Starcmc, I’ll add them to the FH archives too. Great info~

[Jewbacca]

Nice summary.

[GOPJ]

Odd - but I'm sure Janet Napolitano is much more concerned about middle class Republicans storming the barricades...

If dem stupidity wasn't killing us, it would be funny.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

ping me to where ever you are talking about.

[Paved Paradise]

Excellent work, Jeff. If you start a ping list for the update on this, please add me. I want to keep track and I love facts and figures that come all nice and tidy like this so I can be ready for those conversations I have with liberal idiots (oh, that’s right, I’m being redundant).

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Looking at the afterword in Steve Emerson's book...American Jihad

he has November 1990 when ElSayeed Nosair assassinated Rabbi Meir Kahane...that is on pg 178 of the paperback edition.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

See this:

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Sorry,...the Kahane killing was before 911 .

[the anti-liberal]

Thanks!

I've added that to my bm collection!

[Fred Nerks]

There’s room here for your research on the locally grown imams hiding behind their arabic names - who acted as their enablers. Every act of terrorism in the name of islam must first be sanctioned by a fatwa, remember.

Your research exposes exactly who they are.

[US Navy Vet]

Reagan(1980), Reagan (1984), Bush 41 (1988), Bush 41 (1992), Dole (1996), Bush 43 (2000), Bush (2004), McCain (2008/With an Industrial Strength Close pin on nose) and you?

[PGalt]

OUTSTANDING work/compilation, Jeff. Unfortunately it is a list that will grow and grow and grow...(14,417 worldwide since 9/11)...

http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/

Be prepared BUMP!

[rlmorel]

Yeah? And your point is, what? That we could have better candidates? Is that it?

[Jabba the Nutt]

It always bugs me, when people came that there were no terror attacks in America, since 9/11. Simply, untrue.

And we still don't know, who carried out the anthrax attacks.

[US Navy Vet]

I WILL NOT ARGUE THIS POINT WITH YOU! Bush was a Muslim Appeaser (Religion of Peace my ass)!
