Critics of Christianity are in no danger. In fact, they’re celebrated as heroes. Critics of Islam, however, are not only the targets of jihad plots, but of opprobrium and ostracism as “racists” and “Islamophobes.”
“‘Heroes of Islam”: five young people who praised the beheading of ‘infidels are investigated,” translated from “‘Héroes del islam’: investigan a cinco jóvenes que ensalzaban decapitaciones de ‘infieles,'” by Pablo Gabilondo, El Confidencial, May 7, 2022:
“All these people were linked to the radical Tehreeke-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) party, with the aim of maintaining the blasphemy law in Pakistan,” explains the National High Court.
The beheading of French teacher Samuel Paty outside his school in October 2020 shocked the whole world. Police shot dead his killer, Chechen-born refugee Abdouallakh Anzorov, the same day, but the attack soon found its echo in the jihadist networks of various countries. In the case of Spain, the Audiencia Nacional is investigating five young men believed to belong to the radical Tehreeke-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) party founded by Pakistani fundamentalist Khadim Hussain Rizvi.
“The terrorists who were glorified included Zaheer Hassan Mahmood, who attacked two people with a knife outside the editorial office of the Charlie Hebdo newspaper in Paris, France, on September 25, 2020, and Abdullah Abuyedovic Anzorov, who beheaded French teacher Samuel Paty outside the Bois d’Aulne school in Conflans Sainte-Honorine, north-east Paris, France, on October 16, 2020.” The suspects were arrested on February 24, according to a warrant leaked to El Confidencial. By posting on Tik Tok, Facebook or Instagram, they were portrayed as “heroes of Islam,” according to investigators.
Among those arrested is Ullah Shoaib, a 31-year-old Pakistani living in Andalusia. After the investigator testified as a witness on February 24, Magistrate Joaquín Gadea ordered his pre-trial detention without bail: “There is a reasonable risk of flight and the de facto thwarting of the access of justice, as well as the risk of criminal recidivism,” warns the court order. In the absence of any progress in the investigation, the magistrate cites the possible offenses of glorifying terrorism via the internet, disseminating to incite terrorist offenses or recruiting to form a terrorist organization or to carry out terrorist actions.
In addition to its publications on social networks, the decision also highlights the evidence found in the seized devices: “a photo showing several machetes”, pictures of “assault rifles and light weapons”, a snapshot of the President of the French Republic, Emmanuel Macron, combined with the English word “headshot,” … “The risk of a repetition of the offense cannot be excluded, since the detainee cannot be denied the possibility of accessing social networks if fanatical and radical expressions have been identified which, taking into account the circumstances, could lead to terrorist actions”.
Shoaib appealed his detention, but the criminal division of the Audiencia Nacional rejected his arguments. “We must consider the large number of people reached by his postings when we take into account the fact that he operates or has operated at least five profiles on social networks,” they warned in a decision issued on March 29. “Although some of these profiles conceal the number of followers, there is evidence that at least 1,135 profiles are associated with him.”
From these accounts, the accused allegedly shared “a large number of videos” by a Pakistani preacher, characterized by their content, “in which he repeatedly calls for the beheading or killing of people who, in his opinion, blaspheme or insult the Prophet Mohamed.” Among the phrases heard or seen in their publications, the investigators mention the following: “Until the Day of Judgement, if anyone speaks ill of the Prophet, he is condemned to death”; “the punishment of the delinquent is only one” (the people in the background reiterate: behead) and “headless sacrilegious people, today two Pakistanis who love the Prophet have come to stab four infidels.”
In its ten pages, the court order describes the radical party Tehreek e-Labbaik Pakistan, which was founded by the above-mentioned preacher “with the aim of enforcing the blasphemy law in Pakistan and punishing it with death anywhere in the world.” Together with the preacher’s son, Saad Hussain Rizvi, they “worked hard to attract new followers and support” for which “they often exploit and manipulate the religious sentiments of their followers.”
The magistrate compared them to “other terrorist organizations such as Al-Qaeda or Daesh,” as reported by the General Commissariat for Information and its provincial brigades in Granada, Jaén and Murcia. In the absence of further investigation, the investigation led to the arrest of the five young men: “All of them allegedly posted videos on the internet (via social networks) with messages, speeches or parts of speeches by Khadim Hussain Rizvi and tributes to the ‘heroes of Islam.’”

I stopped questioning why things like this occur:
Rwandan genocide
It’s so obvious why.
mortimer says
Jihad is a form of genocide … Jihad can be ‘soft’ genocide with the intentional destruction of a countries culture, arts and monuments or it can be a ‘hard’ genocide with the destruction of people and their expulsion from the land.
All jihad is genocidal in its ultimate intent.
gravenimage says
We know why the Rwandan genocide happened. What are you claiming?
Black Sabbath says
Ban islam in Spain. Nothing good will come out of these filthy moslems from pakistan. Remember, between 1609 and 1614, Spain had to expel all moslems from its land.Time to repeat that before Spain becomes Britain and Madrid elects a pakistani jihadi mayor just like London did.

Have Muslims forgotten the misery of their country during the occupation of Spain by Islamic fanatics?
Spain was occupied by Muslim supremacists from 711 to 1492 for a total of 781 cruel years.

Mortimer, many Muslim know this and want to bring back the horrors of “Al-Andalus”.
Alfredo says
Sad but true, the Spaniards have also been fed the same shameless lies spread by Saracens.
The net effect is the imposition of Sharia by stealth. Whoever dares to criticize the religion of peace, is automatically labeled a racist islamophobe.
Too many Pakistanis in Spain are bogus refugees taking full advantage of the ignorance of the religion of peace in the Western world.
It is not surprising at all that too many people in Spain have forgotten about the Moorish occupation for almost 800 years.
Now these modern day Jihadis from Pakistan bring with them the same hateful ideology.

I have lived in Spain and speak the lingo.
Most of Spain’s Muslims come from Morocco which has a large Jewish influence. They are very friendly with Israel these days and many Jews are in government there. Remember Spain rules 2 strange areas of N. Africa Ceuta & Melilla that they still govern (but daily whinge about Gib.) they are, by and large, good hard-working people. As in all realms of society, there is always the bad apple element who give the others a bad name. We have a local mosque where the Spanish authorities have permanently banned the “call to prayer” they give us no trouble where I am. In fact, the few I have ever known vaguely are drunks or similar with pot. (I am told that Islam teaches that to be extremely naughty.)

Spain: Five Muslim migrants arrested for promoting the killing of critics of Islam
………………
At least they have been arrested. They should be deported after serving their sentences.
Fitna says
They found a whopping 5 Muslim migrants with these ‘radical’ beliefs? Wait till they discover that virtually all Muslims hold the exact same beliefs, won’t they be stunned.
They spend billions of dollars a years on intelligence services in western countries, but for some reason they’re not able to pick up a Quran, or read articles on JW, or watch the news or see youtube videos to find out what Muslims say, believe and how they behave towards us non-Muslims.
This is perhaps the most frustrating and infuriating part of this problem we’re dealing with in the West. The fact that there is little to no interest or curiosity in learning about what Muslims think and how they see the world. Yes it does require a learning curve, but it is not that complicated.
Instead of going on “feelings” and “hope” that Muslims will integrate and they’re only a tiny minority of bad apples, why not listen to what critics of Islam have to say instead of just dismissing them as haters and bigots?
What is needed is for 20% of the population that is the ‘Intelligentsia’ to get informed about Islam and then educate the rest of the 80% of the population. That is typically how you prepare your nation for self-defense and if needed warfare.
Unfortunately they’re all failing in their duty to get educated and then spread the word to others and this is why we find ourselves in the terrible situation we’re in today, where people are just guessing and muddling their way through. That is a recipe for failure.

100% true.
If the mainstream media, along with Western political “leaders”, simply told the truth about islam, muslims could be effectively marginalized.
Michael Copeland says
Memo to Spanish magistrates:
Those “fanatical and radical expressions” are basic Islam, from the source texts.
