Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

UK: Neighbors of Manchester synagogue murderer reported his ‘fanatical interest in Islam’ to police, who did nothing

By

Of course the cops did nothing. To have investigated al-Shamie based on those concerns would have been a tacit admission of what authorities in shattered, staggering, dhimmi Britain steadfastly deny: that Islam has anything to do with terrorism. Any investigation would have been “Islamophobic.”

“Neighbours of Manchester synagogue attacker say they reported concerns to police,” by Josh Halliday, Guardian, October 6, 2025:

Neighbours of the Manchester synagogue attacker reported concerns to police about a family member being “radicalised” and attempting to “preach” the Qur’an to local children, the Guardian has been told.

Police have said Jihad al-Shamie, 35, did not appear to be known to counter-terrorism officials before he attacked a Heaton Park synagogue leading to the deaths of two worshippers on Yom Kippur.

However, people who knew the family said on Monday they had concerns about the apparently fanatical interest in Islam shown by the killer and another family member in recent years.

One neighbour said “everything changed” during the Covid pandemic when Shamie and the other relative started wearing traditional Islamic dress, holding “private” gatherings in the garden and attempting to “preach the Qur’an” on their quiet suburban street.

A neighbour told the Guardian: “They just started wearing all the robes and everything. I thought [one relative] was being radicalised because he wouldn’t speak to us for a bit.

“He was coming up the road preaching to kids about the Qur’an. It was quite intimidating. It was intrusive.”

The neighbour, who did not want to be named, said she was “really concerned” and reported it to Greater Manchester police in the summer of 2020 or 2021. “I would never do that if I weren’t [concerned],” she said.

The disclosure is likely to raise questions about the extent to which these concerns were investigated before the attack last Thursday. One witness reported hearing him shout: “This is what you’re going to get for killing our children,” as he attempted to break into the building armed with a knife. Shamie was shot dead by police after the attack.

Greater Manchester police have been contacted for comment. The force said on Friday they believed he “may have been influenced by extreme Islamist ideology”….

  1. You really need to p_ss_off and concern yourself with YOUR shattered, staggering, DIM(mi) country, Spencer!

    Let US concern ourselves with OURS!

    • You can actually say that in the US though. Just Dhimmi part would have arrested in the UK.

      On a connected topic, Koran burner Hamit Coskun wins his appeal.

      I know know what I’ll be throwing on the bonfire on Nov 5th.

      Haven’t heard much on the ‘slim who tried to knife him though.

        • England Invaded

          I know you were referring to a qur’an above, but while celebrating November 5th, can you also toss in a few flags into the bonfire on our behalf? –

          ⮞ Palestine 🇵🇸
          ⮞ Pakistan 🇵🇰
          ⮞ Qatar 🇶🇦
          ⮞ Turkey 🇹🇷

          Make the burnings more “diverse” 😈

    • you british people are no longer the heirs of the magnificent adventurers who founded the British Empire : you are mostly reduced to ridiculous ghosts . so long

    • Get a clue. And I have to admit a part of me enjoys witnessing our “English betters” collectively assuming the position. Better grab the soap.

    • But that’s the thing, you utter nutcase bootlicker. You are too scared to do anything, and your country is wallowing in filth.

    • Note that John Allan does not say that he has a problem with Muslims in the UK attacking Britons–he is just enraged if anyone else dares say they consider this a bad thing.

        • Thank you, James.

          I know I am never offended when good people from other countries support Americans against Jihad terror.

    • That’s extremely rude, as a British citizen, born & bred I welcome Robert Spencer’s reports.
      People like you are one reason why this Islamic terminal cancer is continuing to thrive in western democracies. It needs to be eradicated completely from the face of planet earth.

  2. The Brits have lost their balls. They have absolutely no balls to confront these satanic, perverted and inbred muslims. You can say that Britain is now an islamic country.

  3. Too many officers are muzzie. Too many in the government are muzzie. And many of the non are way too afraid of offending the muzzies in their midst.

    “he “may have been influenced by extreme Islamist ideology”…” All in all, they should admit that he was merely a devout muzzie with the lust to kill those for whom he had a rabid hate.

    • Jihad al-Shamie’s father praised the Oct 7 Hamas attacks on Israel. Of course, the neighbors said the family was nice … neighbors always say such things. They probably are surrounded by nice Muslims.

      Even Jihad was a nice fellow out on bail for rape.

    I’m surprised they weren’t arrested for implying that a fanatical interest in Islam is a concerning thing…
