Pamela Geller, American Thinker: Three Jihadis

Three Jihadis
Pamela Geller

It is almost every day now. Jihadi attacks in America. This past week there were three attempted jihad attacks. And what does the media consider the problem? Racistislamophobicantimuslimbigots, of course.

On Saturday, a Muslim named Sami Osmakac was arrested in Florida on charges of plotting to go jihad on nightclubs and the Tampa, Florida, sheriff's headquarters. "We all have to die," Osmakac said, "so why not die the Islamic way?"

Osmakac is from Kosovo, making his jihad another thank-you for U.S. involvement in Bosnia. And the U.S. still supports an independent Kosovo state, a militant Islamic state, in the heart of Europe. That is our policy. America refuses to own up to the terrible mistake we made in Europe -- worse still, we continue to prosecute the Christian Serbs.

Media reports said that Osmakac, a devout Muslim, was "self-radicalized." You have to wonder if Western dhimmis stay up nights thinking up new terms for jihad.  Pathetic. Soon after his arrest, video emerged that showed how pious and violent Sami Osmakac really was, as he attacked and bloodied Christian street preachers. The pious Osmakac, who was completely the aggressor, then cried victim to the police, saying that he had been "insulted," the same fictitious narrative that we are bombarded with daily by Islamic groups and Muslim Brotherhood organizations like the Hamas-tied Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).

The police, in what has become standard practice in dealing with Islamic supremacists, treated the perpetrator and the victim with equal contempt, actually charging the bloodied Christian with battery. This was in the same town, Tampa, that classified what was obviously an honor killing of a Muslim woman, Fatima Abdallah, as a "suicide."

Even worse, after the terrorism arrest, Hassan Shibly, director of the Florida chapter of CAIR, cried "entrapment." This is, of course, typical of jihadis, but what is really outrageous is that the FBI briefed Shibly prior to Osmakac's arrest.  Hamas-CAIR was briefed? Was Qaradawi briefed, too?

"The weapons and explosives were provided by the government. Was he just a troubled individual, or did he pose a real threat?" Shibly asked. Hey, Shibly, he was a devout Muslim. Watch the videos: he is preaching the word of Allah in one and head-butting Christians in another.

Also on Sunday, a Muslim in Alabama named Luis Ibarra-Hernandez (the media did not release his Muslim name) shot out store windows and tried to get into a shootout with police officers. Gadsden, Alabama Police spokesperson Capt. Regina May said: "After the man was taken into custody, he reported that he knew he must do something extreme to draw attention to Islam and himself, so he planned to shoot police officers."

I think it is poetic that this Alabama Muslim wanted to call attention to Islam by shooting at police. He is right, of course. Such actions best illustrate the violent and true nature of jihad. He would have been richly rewarded in paradise, perhaps 73 virgins instead of 72. But as Islamic scholar Robert Spencer points out, "he did not, however, succeed in gaining the space that is guaranteed in Paradise for those who 'kill and are killed' for Allah (Qur'an 9:111)."

Meanwhile, the military jihad continues. Last Friday, a former U.S. Army soldier named Craig Baxam was arrested and charged with trying to join al-Shabaab, a jihad terror group in Somalia. Baxam converted to Islam while in the U.S. Military. He said he wanted to die defending Islam, and was "looking for dying with a gun in my hand."

I hope all my fellow Patriots are "ready" for Sudden Jihad Syndrome at all times and everywhere. We do have a unique advantage over the Dhimmis in certain other Western countries. (An armed populace is comprised of citizens. An unarmed populace is comprised of subjects.)

Don't wait for the police to draw your portrait in chalk on the sidewalk and try to bring your killer to justice through a maze of Marxist jurisprudence designed to wheel our culture off the stage of history as soon as possible. Be ready to tell the police what "the deceased" did to compel your justified use of lethal force in defense of yourself or others.

SJS, meet S&W! "Allahu Ak-"Bang!

GOD BLESS AMERICA. keep up the good work PAM. all we can do is try to wake up people.

@Betty: Best to you and stay healthy! Don't grieve too much about the DOJ. We've seen it "in action" under O (dropping charges against the New Black Panthers began their downhill slide) and shouldn't expect anything but grief from it from now until a new pres. Don't hope for things that can't happen and spare yourself the disappointment.

@ pam who wrote: Media reports said that Osmakac, a devout Muslim, was "self-radicalized."

Applying the same logic, are Buddhists are "self-do-gooderized"?

As the Muslim World surges in response to Western weakness and misguided attempts at appeasement, it makes the news daily. Many jihadists have international connections which are hard to follow without being aware of the world picture.

"...but what is really outrageous is that the FBI briefed Shibly prior to Osmakac's arrest."

Is there a more dangerous, more treasonous enemy within?
