“The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews.” (Sahih Muslim 6985)
“CAA Offers £10,000 Reward for Information Leading to Conviction in Connection with ‘Life-or-Death’ Antisemitic Attack in West Hampstead,” Campaign Against Antisemitism, April 14, 2022:
…Over Chanukah, a Jewish man was allegedly violently attacked by a man carrying what appeared to be a knife in an antisemitic attack in the north London neighbourhood. The alleged assailant said that he wanted to “Kill my first Jew” but has not been traced.
Police released a CCTV image of a man whom they need to speak with. The photograph that has been released may not be of the assailant.
Following the attack, police faced criticism for their initial slow response, which they had said would take an hour to respond to, however the police investigation was upgraded following intervention by CST. Nevertheless, the investigation has stalled, and we are now again appealing to the public to provide information so that justice can be done for the victim.
The incident took place on 2nd December at around 19:20, when the victim was returning from work. He exited West Hampstead Underground Station and walked to the nearby Marks and Spencer supermarket located in West Hampstead Square.
He saw the alleged attacker desecrating a 4-metre high public Chanukiah that was erected on West Hampstead Square to celebrate the Jewish festival of Chanukah, pulling the object down before proceeding to stamp on in and shout antisemitic abuse.
With no prior interaction, the attacker approached the victim and aggressively said: “You look Jewish” and that he was “looking for a Jew to kill” after singling out the victim among other pedestrians, despite there being no visible indication of his Jewish background.
He allegedly asked threateningly: “Are you Jewish?” The victim, understandably wishing to avoid a confrontation, said “No,” to which the man replied: “Good, I want to find a Jew to kill.”
The victim entered a nearby Marks and Spencer supermarket and the man remained outside. The victim was worried for the safety of other Jews and their families in the neighbourhood where the man was loitering, which has a sizeable Jewish population. The victim approached a supermarket employee, who said that the man had been in the store earlier.
The victim decided to call the police, explaining the situation to them over the course of about eight minutes.
Officers told the victim that they did not consider the case urgent enough for a priority response and would come within an hour, despite the attacker threatening to kill Jews.
After a short period of time, the victim spotted the man again, outside the shop, pulling down the public Chanukiah which someone had put back up in the intervening time. The victim also said that the man was shouting aggressively at a young woman, aged 18-25 who fled the square. He then returned to pulling the Chanukiah to the ground.Fearing for the young woman, the victim and the supermarket employee confronted the man from a ten-metre distance. The attacker allegedly shouted at him in response: “I knew you were Jewish, you lied to me” and began walking towards his victim while shouting: “You are Jewish. I am going to kill you.” He said something in Arabic before allegedly declaring: “I want to kill my first Jew.”
The victim ran back into Marks and Spencer and turned to see if the man had followed him, which he had, having put on a facemask in the meantime.
As the assailant walked into the shop, he shouted at the victim again: “You are Jewish.”
The man reached the victim, allegedly squaring up to him aggressively with barely a metre between them. Within seconds, the man allegedly pushed the victim as hard as he could with both hands on the victim’s chest, forcing the victim to take a step backwards, all the while repeating: “You are Jewish. I am going to kill you.”…

The assailant shouted something in Arabic? By any chance might that something have contained the words “Allahu Akbar”..?

Could be…
Fitna says
I’m sure he was quoting the Quran where we “misunderstanders” get it wrong….he was not saying “kill the Jews” but that he wants to “hug the Jews.”
I’m trying my best to be less of an Islamophobe and realize how sweet and wonderful Muslims really are. Oh and he wasn’t carrying the knife to stab his first Jews but to share half of his donor kebab wrap with him, such a dear. 😛
bill says
If he was carrying a knife and there seems to be doubt on that, why was the Jewish man not stabbed but pushed. If he wanted to harm a Jew and had a knife why did he not use it? Vague reporting
Fitna says
In case it wasn’t obvious I was be sarcastic, I suspect Lefties probably think this way as dumb as they are.
I trust the reporting, there is an epidemic of knife crimes in the UK so there’s nothing special about this story except that he wants to kill Jews as per his demonic religion.
Muslims are telling us in a million different ways they’re evil b*stards and need to be either locked up, shot or thrown out. It’s just that our leaders don’t really care because their families are not being attacked or they’re too cowardly to do anything about it.
I hope eventually we build a large mass movement against Islam, we need people to step up and demand that our politicians ban Islam and deport Muslims.

Here in UK we have 2 archbishops pleading for uk to let more illegals in, who are in the main mus, many like this POS, why we sufer this behaviour I do not get. This happening and we have the funeral of an MP victim of naother deranged mus. Plus a lousy cop responce..
gregbeetham says
Those bishops know nothing about the history of Jihad, the spread of Islam was aggressive and violent right across the region of North Africa and on into Spain and North into Greece and Southern Europe/Albania etc. including the invasions of Sicily, Crete, Italy/Rome and on into Eastern Asia, Persia, India, Afghanistan etc. and all of those were not Muslim countries but today they are or a cultural mix in some minor cases.
Those places didn’t become Islamic through choice, well, ok they were given a choice, become Muslim or you die, some did and some didn’t, the didn’t ones are not here anymore or they fled if they could.
This is the heritage of Islam, anyone not a Muslim or not willing to become Islamic were persecuted to the point of destruction, and that is what they have in store for us just as soon as they have the numbers.
somehistory says
Jews and others should be allowed to defend themselves against the violence of mozlums…without being prosecuted for defending themselves or another person. the people in the grocery store were all witnesses to the attack and the threats, so there would have been enough to say it was self-defense.
and, this was in Dec. Just now being reported and they haven’t found the perp as yet. In the olden days in the U.K., all males would have been rounded up and questioned. I recall watching one of those forensic shows abut some young girls being raped and murdered, and all of the males in the town were brought in for a DNA sampling. the same should be done with the mozlums who fit the description in this assault and threat to murder.
Wellington says
Love and a true Golden Rule for all are foreign concepts in Islam. I know of no verse in the Koran demonstrating pure love to another, even to other Muslims, never mind toward the hateful Kuffaar who is the equivalent of human waste to this very day per every major school of Islamic theology, whether Sunni or Shiite, for instance the four main Sunni schools, i.e., the Shafi, Malaki, Hanbali and Hanafi.
Romantic love does not exist in Islam, nor does pure love at all, even for its fictional Allah, and which helps explain its idiotic antipathy towards such an innocuous, though still lovely, day as Valentine’s Day. This is demonstrative of Islam’s many pathological errors, though such errors can be found in many other areas of human life per Islamthink, another being its advocacy of terror and which is imbedded right in its deepest theology from its own reputed founder onwards (e.g., Mohammed himself saying, per Bukhari Hadith, 4.52.220, ” I have been made victorious with terror”).
Sickness, true mental and spiritual sickness, is a major feature of Islam. No getting around this as long as truth is sought as objectively as possible.
Many Muslims, confused human beings though they be, nonetheless deserve quarter for a number of higher purposes, a decent legal system extending protection to them being one of them. But Islam as a whole deserves no quarter. Indeed, continuing to extend regard to Islam is the equivalent of extending regard to Nazism and Marxism. Shouldn’t be done. Unethical, and often times suicidal, to do so.
It is imperative to distinguish between the hateful and stupid belief system which is Islam, which should always be castigated, and many Muslims who, in their daily life are good people IN SPITE OF and NOT BECAUSE OF Islam. A la Abraham Lincoln, one can hate the sin without necessarily hating the sinner—or the confused I would add.
Muslims in huge numbers need to be rescued from themselves. They don’t know this and I certainly don’t know the optimal manner in which to proceed here, but the effort must be made nonetheless to turn as many Muslims away from the decrepit and phony belief which is Islam. The sake of humanity rests upon this endeavor, a necessary and even noble endeavor.

Wellington,
I was doing some around the house work and listening to music. the computer chose Marty Robbins and I heard just a little bit of a song that I do not recall hearing ever before. He was singing about communism and socialism. I didn’t hear all that he said in the song, but it made me think of you and your comparisons of islam to nazi’s, etc.
Yes, they *need* to be rescued, but since they seem to believe that they are so much better and deserving of doing what they wish than are the rest of us, I don’t see them *wanting* to be rescued.
Wellington says
Understand, somehistory. But here is my argument above all: Those who don’t see the need of being rescued, like Leftists and Muslims, are actually the most in need of being rescued. In fact, if otherwise, they wouldn’t be in such need.
Those most blind are the ones most in need of help. My God, even though an agnostic, I think I’m sounding a bit Biblical at the moment. I’m sure you’ll appreciate the irony.
somehistory says
Wellington, I agree.
Ronnie Milsap sang a song done earlier by Jim Reeves, “Am I Too Blind to See?” Every time I hear him sing it, I say, “Yes, you are.” He even tried driving a new tour bus he bought back when he was selling a lot of records. A cop stopped him due to his erratic driving.
I have often noted to myself when reading your comments that you use, “My God” a lot for someone who is, shall we say, not sure. Much like Carl Sagan and some of his comments.
Yes, I see the irony and I understand. It’s much like a man who drinks too much way too often but can never realize that he gets drunk and needs to quit.
One of the problems in trying to reach mozlums is their need to kill those who try.
Wellington says
Thanks for your response, somehistory. And I assure you that the use of my phrase, “My God,” is just an expression and one that is time-honored. Besides, I have never denied God exists, only that I don’t incline to such a being being a likelihood.
Well, as Voltaire observed, himself a skeptic, if God doesn’t exist we’ll have to invent Him. All things considered (and yes I could be wrong), man created God and not the other way around. The most clever of people (e.g., the ancient Jews) did a damn good job of obfuscating reality for the purpose of giving us purpose in a universe that doesn’t give a damn about us.
One thing is for certain and that is that there is no way of proving God exists—or the other way around. If one could know that God exists, there would be no need for faith. As the great Scottish philosopher, David Hume, observed, the only true Christian is a skeptic. There is much truth in this observation I think, somehistory.
somehistory says
Wellington, I didn’t think you meant the phrase as I would. I’m likely to say “good grief” under the same circumstances, and I don’t much care for grief.
Sagan said he didn’t want to believe; he wanted to know. He also said that if one wanted to bake an apple pie from scratch, he’d have to first create a universe.
One other thing is certain, it will be evident to each one if God does Live and does Keep His promises of a “large reward.”
Having faith is not difficult for me. I have seen things work out in my life that I could not have planned, could not have made happen, and many times, was not expecting, but surely wishing for.
At least, the God of the Hebrews, the God of Christians, is a loving God Who wants the best for His creation. Even those who have doubts and questions.

Damn good exchange, gravenimage, between me and somehistory.
Love the give and take here at JW, where open minds can still respect one another though occasionally disagreeing amicably.
A model for everyone I would argue—though many will miss this. You won’t. Neither will somehistory.

I recall this horrific story from years ago. One thing I did not know at that time was that this mozlum murderer was indicted along with two others on RICO charges, for their connection to the abu nidal terror group.

gravenimage says
Just horrifying case, Somehistory–definitely an “Honor Killing”. I had never heard of it. This *poor girl*.
One curious point–why were the Feds surveilling these Muslims? Were they suspected of plotting Jihad terror? No mention of this in the story. Just wish someone had been monitoring the mike live–they many have been able to save the girl’s life.
somehistory says
the mozlum male was part of the abu nidal terror group. He had been flying across country to meet with others of the group.
Also, the family was scamming, through their grocery store, the food stamp program. They were buying food stamps…for example: if they bought five dollar coupons, they paid less than five and gave the recipient cash…so then the person getting cash could buy non-food items…cigarettes, beer, etc. and then the mozlums were turning in the food stamp coupons for the full amount.
the fraud and the abu nidal…those are the reasons.
and yes, it was horrible to hear the recordings and the FBI didn’t hear them until it was too late. Poor girl. She was very pretty as well. the parents were hideous and that was inside and out.

UK: Knife-wielding Muslim attacks Jewish man, screaming in Arabic and saying ‘I want to kill my first Jew’
…………
*Horrifying*–and not uncommon. Other Muslims attacking Jews have said just the same.
God, I hate Islam.
Kashyap says
Is there any religion that says that people not belonging to “their religion” is to be killed? How are these Muslims get way in the civilized world with such a religious dictate? Is it not blatant violation basic human right “right to life/ Right to live> How can such religious theocratic states recognized by world bodies? Sensible thing would be seek deletion such dictates , in the absence of action the religion should be banned.
gregbeetham says
I’ve wondered the same thing, why is it that Islam hasn’t been banned yet given the murderous intolerance it preaches? One could be that our leaders are unbelievably ignorant of the true nature of Islam but are dimly aware that Muslims are dangerous if disturbed so they being cowards are looking after themselves first and foremost.
Or is it that most of the world’s oil reserves are held by Islamic countries therefore nobody wants to rock the boat and so turn a blind eye to Muslim murderous aggression and use appeasement and news suppression as much as possible to keep a lid on the situation while placing their own constituents in ever increasing danger.
I don’t think either of them is the full answer when you look at weasels like the Pope for instance, that performance is beyond appeasement it is grovelling pure and simple so our response to Islam is more complicated, it’s probably a combination of the above plus a psychological component.
Dr Bill Warner proposed that due to a thousand years of relentless merciless Islamic onslaught we now have an inbuilt Stockholm syndrome concerning Islam where we subconsciously assume a kind of abused prisoner slave mentality and allow Muslims to take control over our societies piece by piece.
Whatever the reason subservience to Islam is eventually the fate of our civilization and our future if we don’t snap out of it.

islam is a Fascist Religious Cult….. There I fixed it… No charge…
James Lincoln says
So, according to the feature article:
UK: Knife-wielding Muslim attacks Jewish man, screaming in Arabic and saying ‘I want to kill my first Jew’
The statement is very telling. Since he said “first” Jew instead of “a” Jew, this means that he wants to kill more than one Jew.
Street gangs / the mafia also have a policy that requires a “hit” in order to become a “devout” member.
Similarities with islam?
