The man’s name means “Syrian Jihad.” He was born in Syria and became a British citizen in 2006. The British government, in other words, brought this problem to Britain. It wasn’t there before the British left embraced socialism, internationalism, and open borders, and began to stigmatize and silence anyone who warned about what was happening as “racist” and “Islamophobic.” Anyone who might have raised concerns about the man’s name itself would have been shut down with calm, knowing assurances that Jihad meant “struggle,” and so there was nothing to be concerned about. And it does mean “struggle.” But the primary jihad in Islamic theology is the struggle against unbelievers with the goal of imposing Sharia upon them.
“Car and knife attack at U.K. synagogue that killed 2 people declared a terrorist incident,” by Patrick Smith, Isabella Colletta and Doha Madani, NBC News, October 2, 2025:
LONDON — Police declared a terrorist incident after two people were killed and three others were seriously injured on Thursday when a man rammed a car into a crowd and stabbed people at a synagogue in the northern English city of Manchester.
It came as worshippers observed Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar.
Assistant Metropolitan Police Commissioner Laurence Taylor, the head of counter-terrorism policing, told reporters the attack had been declared a terrorist incident. The suspect was fatally shot by police, he said.
He was later identified as 35-year-old Jihad Al-Shamie, a British citizen of Syrian descent….

At one time USA denied entry to Communists…….how can we do that to muslims?
They are here to undermine and destroy our country. It is mandated in their religion, demanded in their ‘holy” book. Why is this not a danger to our society?
Wellington says
Islam is a great danger to American society and all of Western society but it is the best disguised evil ideology in history and hides behind its religious veil quite effectively. It fools many, many people, including people who are ordinarily not easily fooled.

You are talking about the McCarran-Walter of 1952. WE’D LIKE TO KNOW WHY THE McCARRAN-WALTER ACT OF 1952 WAS REPEALED BY CONGRESS IN 1990
Has anyone ever heard of the McCarran-Walter Act Of 1952? This ”selective immigration ban” had been “The Law Of The Land” for nearly 38 years and had been applied on occasions, by US Presidents. Known as the McCarran-Walter Act, or the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952, it allowed for the “Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by the President, whenever the President finds that the entry of aliens, or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States. The President may, by proclamation, and for such a period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens, or any class of aliens, immigrants, or non-immigrants, or impose any restrictions on the entry of aliens he may deem to be appropriate.” Additionally, it is important to note that the McCarran-Walter Act also requires: “an applicant for immigration must be of good moral character and in agreement with the principles of our Constitution.” Therefore, WE THE PEOPLE of the United States Of America could surmise, since the Quran forbids Muslims to swear allegiance to the U.S. Constitution, then technically, ALL Muslims should, or could be refused the privilege of immigration to America – Right? WRONG!
Who was president when this law was passed? Harry S. Truman (D). Who do you suppose used this law last? Jimmy Carter (D), no less than 37 years ago, in 1979, to keep Iranians out of the United States of America.
Donald J. Trump has been savagely criticized for wanting to enforce the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 by suggesting that the U.S.A. should limit, or temporarily suspend the immigration of certain ethnic groups, nationalities, and even people of certain religions (Muslims), until the US government could get a “handle” on the situation of Islamic immigration. Criticisms that said that Donald Trump was being, un-American, dumb, stupid, reckless, dangerous and racist. Many Congressmen (of both houses) within his own GOP party swore that they would never allow such legislation!! Well, Surprise, Surprise, LIARS!! We the People found it!! Anyone can verify it: Just look up:
Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 – Wikipedia — BUT — you’ll see that the globalist congress had already begun amending the law set down in this Act to suit their own agenda when they decided to repeal it completely in 1990!
I wonder how many American citizens knew that these sneaky, traitorous politicians pulled THIS off without us being aware that we were being sabotaged. On November 18, 1990 the 101st Congress QUIETLY repealed the McCarran Warner Act of 1952 forbidding “muslims” from holding office!! Members of that congress were Dick Cheney, John McCain, Joe Biden, Al Gore, John Kerry, Mitch McConnell, Feinstein, Waters, Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi. See the agenda? The very same old treasonous traitor team was at work even way back then. They sure had some grandiose plan to sell us down the river, didn’t they?? For a government of, for, and by the people, we sure don’t have much say, do we? Our ”representatives” pull sneaky stuff behind our backs without notifying us and giving us a voice in what goes on. That has to stop!! Those named above are traitors, this we know. Those bustards had treason on their minds when they repealed this act. By repealing this Act completely, they were able to infiltrate so many muslims into our government, including congress, who want to ”change” us – our republic, and our Constitution.
Why? For what purpose?? What else did they change that would hurt America? These are the very ones fighting so hard against the wall to protect our southern borders, also! They have also been trying their most devious tricks to make it possible to disarm us. They are trying to impeach our president, elected BY THE PEOPLE!! Again I ask – Why?? They seem to be doing everything in their power to leave Americans vulnerable and at risk. We need them out of our government now, and either in GITMO or hanged!

Hudders. says
Well, what a surprise hey folks?
Each & every day for months, soldier age muslim males, with blackened hearts & minds full of radical jihadist madness continue to invade British shores.
Now a Syrian scum bag granted citizenship a few years ago, has lived up to his name JIHAD & decided to claim his imaginary reward from allah in paradise.
The motive is clear… JIHAD. His name is clear…JIHAD.
With all those invaders on the UK streets, what does that also spell?…….JIHAD.
Jews & Christians & all who reject the demonic desert death cult have never been in greater danger in once great Britain today.
The terrorists are here making plans. The Home Sec is a devout death cultist also & the police & councils have been taken hold of by the same.
Starmer is compromised due to his sexual secrets & far left hat of the country.
Our prayers are with all those dear people affected by this terrorist islamic attack.
But we should prepare accordingly, as this is without a doubt only the start.
So called protests of chanting hamas supporters, waving flags & letting off fireworks celebrated in UK cities the same day as the attack.
The police stoold by & did nothing.
It is a disgrace & evil of the highest order.
Britain has almost fallen..
Mockery after mockery.
When will enough finally be enough?
Brian Ozzy says
Well spoken and dead (dead being the operative word) correct. The UK is stuffed. Women better start picking out their burkhas.
Eddie says
Well said Hudders.
The BBC and other MSM were alrready suggesting the perpetrator could equally be from the “Far right” within hours of the attack.
The killer was clearly an Islamic terrorist. A Syrian deemed “British”
And yes there were pro Hamas Anti Semites out in their thousands on the streets of London, Glasgow and Edinburgh last night – the police not even in riot gear just soft caps and shirts.
Police pushed aside in Edinburgh.
In London where police are in higher numbers some arrests made but little real control.
The crowds were chanting tonight that “Kier Starmer has blood on his hands”. Not the Jewish blood at Manchester today !
They are still talking about Gaza – so recognising Palestine as a State has not satisfied the leftists and Islamists !
So what now Starmer ?
What now British police?
And thus it seems the deaths of Jews in Britain at the hands of a Jihadist named Jihad means nothing – beyond another martyr for the true faith.(Perhaps one day there will be a street in Manchester named after him ?)
Muslims are the victims. We now await the Home office to manipulate the MSM to portray this.
It seems that in Britain we need a two state solution outselves.
One part of the country for Islamists and leftists.
The other part for the good, decent true British and the Jewish are welcome to live with us .
Stephen Brown says
Not one square inch of British soil am I prepared to surrender to these backwards savages. The only answer is to expel Islam, and those adherents that believe it’s inherent violent exhortations, from the country, demolish the mosques and proscribe the whole ideology.

Yeah–lots of guys on the “far right” named Jihad… sarc/off
England Invaded says
Our most popular new born boys name essentially means the same as Jihad. Mohmmed, in all it’s endless ways of spelling.

Apparently “Sinwar”–as in head of Hamas–is in the top 100 names for baby boys in Britain.
Taffy says
And this is 19 years after this Muzzie became a British citizen. The Islam long festers within the Muzzie along with its Jew and infidel hatred.
I’m surprised that any of the Bobbies had firearms with which to shoot the Muzzie. In years past, they were armed only with billy sticks. I guess it took the fatal stabbing a few years ago, and the others that followed, to allow them to carry a pistol.
David M says
The general police there don’t carry guns, they have to bring in the specialists who do, which is what they did here.
For Starmer to say he was “appalled” at this, that’s like a farmer bringing in foxes to the hen house, then saying he was appalled when the foxes attacked the chickens.

At least the attacker was killed, so will not have to be expensively housed in prison….
I wonder how many other mohammedans named “Jihad” there are out there… all over western countries and beyond (in India, for example)… we have one in Australia – JIHAD Dib! And he’s in politics… out there in the open… I wouldn’t trust him for a nanosecond.
dumbledoresarmy says
Maybe it is time for non-UK jihadwatchers to write polite, pointed letters to the UK PM – and to the king! – pointing out, quietly, the flaming obvious: that if NO mohammedans had been permitted to enter and settle in the UK .. in enormous numbers… many many people who are now dead, in the assorted jihad terror raids large and small … these Jews in Manchester… and all those girls and their mums in the previous mass-murder ‘suicide-bombing’ at the concert in **Manchester**… the victims of the train bombings in London in 2005… Lee Rigby (beheaded in broad daylight in a British street, not even in a dark alley)… would all be alive! And thousands upon thousands of vulnerable British girls would NOT have been raped, tormented, basically enslaved, by mohammedan predators.
British people can probably not now write letters of that kind, for fear of being arrested and dragged off to jail for the crime of ‘hate speech’!!!!. But maybe people from outside – from other parts of the so-called ‘commonwealth’ and wider ‘English-speaking’ world – could do so. Flood Downing Street – and the Palace! – with letters and postcards.
Say it over and over again till it sinks in: Got Muslims: Got JIHAD. And jihad = rape, robbery, torture, infiltration, subversion and MURDER, MURDER, MURDER. It means stabbings, throat-slittings (that priest in France, murdered in his own parish church as he conducted the Mass), car-rammings (such as have occurred on numerous occasions on the Continent – Marseilles, for example; kidnappings (Ilan Halimi, French Jew, kidnapped and tortured to death). It means assassinations and threatened assassinations of anyone who dares to criticise, question or make fun of mohammed, mohammedans and their mass-murderous Religion of Blood and War.
Quote William Gladstone, on the Quran; he famously held it up in the Parliament and called it accursed. Quote Winston Churchill who called Islam “the religion of blood and war”.
And don’t stop.

One of victims killed was hit by police gunfire as they shot attacker – chief constable
published at 12:05
In an update, Greater Manchester Police says that two victims of yesterday’s attack have been found to have gunshot wounds.
The statement in full from the chief constable:
“The Home Office Pathologist has advised that he has provisionally determined, that one of the deceased victims would appear to have suffered a wound consistent with a gunshot injury,” a statement reads.
“It is currently believed that the suspect, Jihad Al Shamie, was not in possession of a firearm and the only shots fired were from GMP’s Authorised Firearms Officers as they worked to prevent the offender from entering the synagogue and causing further harm to our Jewish community. It follows therefore, that subject to further forensic examination, this injury may sadly have been sustained as a tragic and unforeseen consequence of the urgently required action taken by my officers to bring this vicious attack to an end.
“We have also been advised by medical professionals that one of the three victims currently receiving treatment in hospital, has also suffered a gunshot wound, which is mercifully not life threatening. It is believed that both victims were close together behind the synagogue door, as worshippers acted bravely to prevent the attacker from gaining entry.”

Described as a British citizen??
I wonder, do you think he was mentally ill or the new form of Islam. Radical Islam.
Poor chap, it was not his fault.
It must be because of all the Islamophobia, we must try harder to embrace the Moslem Community!!!!

The Sex Pistols were right about Anarchy In The UK. Just wrong about when it would happen and who would be the responsible party.
OLD GUY says
Great Britain got it’s inclusion and diversity when they let this terrorist in. Islam preaches and teaches this JIHAD against non-islamic people, “thats you British natural born citizens” in its mosques. I know the elite left are so proud of what they accomplished at the expense of the common citizen.
