New in PJ Media:
Did New York City’s Marxist Muslim Mayor Zohran Mamdani invite this attack?
The news out of New York City was shocking, but drearily predictable: the New York Post reported Thursday evening that “two men were stabbed in an unprovoked rampage on the Upper West Side near Central Park on Thursday afternoon — with investigators probing whether the attack was a hate crime, according to cops and law-enforcement sources.”
There was very good reason to suspect that it was indeed a hate crime, of a kind that is increasingly common all across Europe and North America, while authorities continue to look the other way and pretend that the threat of this particular hate crime does not exist: “Police were investigating claims that the suspect said ‘Allah Akbar,’ meaning ‘God is the greatest’ in Arabic, before one of the attacks.”
“God is the greatest” is close, but it’s still a misleadingly incomplete translation. While “Allah” is indeed generally translated as “God,” the deity of Islam and the Qur’an is so different from the God of the Bible as to call for different terms. Also, the deity that is being invoked here is quite specifically the Allah of the Qur’an, and not the God of the Bible, and so it is best to leave that word untranslated.
Meanwhile, “akbar” does indeed mean “greatest,” or more precisely “biggest,” as well as “greater” or “bigger,” and in this case, the most accurate translation of the phrase “Allahu akbar” would be “Allah is greater.”
That’s certainly what jihad terrorists mean when they scream it out in the midst of their violent acts. They do not just happen to be randomly making a declaration of the greatness of Allah while stabbing or beheading someone. Their scream of “Allahu akbar” is meant to indicate that Allah is showing himself to be greater precisely in and through the act of violence at hand, and demonstrating that he has greater power than the infidels’ god, who was powerless to save the victims from the attack.
In this case, the Allahu-akbaring jihadi “allegedly jumped the first victim, a 57-year-old Asian man near West 84th Street and Central Park West, and stabbed him in the back with a knife, at around 1:30 p.m., police and the sources said.” Then he zeroed in on more apposite quarry: “The second victim, a 50-year-old man wearing a yarmulke, was attacked as he was leaving synagogue at Central Park West and West 86th Street, and stabbed in the torso with a screwdriver, according to cops and sources.”
The “Allahu akbar” cry came during the attack on the Jewish man. A woman who “was speaking with the victim inside the Jewish Center on West 86th Street before the attack, said she ran out and spoke to two witnesses who heard the suspect say ‘Allah Akbar’ before the stabbing.” The victim “had been leaving Tisha B’Av services when he was attacked.”
There is more. Read the rest here.

Follow the pattern: Muslim is elected into public office. Does not take long as the Muslim population in the area explodes and crime against the citizens becomes apparent as sharia law provides the Muslim to attack non Muslims.
Why is that?
Sharia law per Reliance of the Traveller states in chapter o9.0 title jihad is this: kill them where you find them. Elected Muslims does nothing however the court system favors the Muslim not the victim. This is happening not only in Europe but here in the USA.
Wake up people, Islam is here to conquer. It does not assimilate period. Make people afraid to speak up is a tool used to silence people so expansion is easy. Ask where do they get the money to build so many Mosques?
Westman says
Saudi Arabia donates much to Mosque building in the West.
Here is an eye opener: http://ispu.org/reports-and-analysis/report-1-mosque-survey-2020/
This is a 2020 report on Mosques and membership in the US showing 2769 Mosques. An interesting trend appears for Native African Americans which shows activity and converts declining. This seems to be related(not mentioned) to the Nation Of Islam, created in Chicago, which is not a conventional Islam, and was strongest in the 1960s and 70s. It and mainstream Islam are now being rejected by young blacks while the older members age-out.
Apparently, seeing the behavior of mainstream immigrant Islamists moving into the area since 2015 was enough to demonstrate the newcomer beliefs and turn off US Native African Americans from Islam. Good trend. All that “forbidding” makes few friends.
OLD GUY says
Thank you Obama and Biden. These islamic followers should never be allowed into America, yet alone elected to public office. Wake up American voters, Islam is “NOT ” your friend no matter what they say, claim or promise you for free.

Another Muslim inspires Islam’s Muslims to attack Non-Muslims including Jews with Muslim discrimination, segregation, violence, and terrorism as taught in Islamic Law and in Islam’s Qur’an(Qur’an 9:5, 29, 111; 49:15, etc.). Islam’s Muslims are murderous, Totalitarian Terrorists of Allah operating as a Criminal-Terrorist-Gang Enterprise under Islamic Law to ultimately conquer the enemies of Allah, the Non-Muslims, with Islamic Law DBA Islam(Qur’an 8:60; 9:5, 29, 111; 49:15, etc.). Genocidal Allah in Qur’an 8:39 commands, “And engage in war with them[Non-Muslims] until there will not be sedition and the religion will be completely to Allah…”
Islam is the deceitful, daily practice of Islamic Law by Muslims, and Allah rewards his Muslim believers, Criminal-Genocidal-Terrorists of Allah, with a Garden Paradise when they kill and are killed in Jihad for Allah as war against the enemies of Allah, the Non-Muslims, using MUSLIM MONEY and MUSLIM LIVES to make Islam, Islamic Law, supreme(Qur’an 4:95; 9:5, 29, 111; 49:15, etc.). Allah in Qur’an 49:15 teaches, “Surely the believers[Muslims] are only those who believed in Allah and his messenger. They do not doubt, and they performed JIHAD with their MONEY and their LIVES for the sake of Allah. Those are the truthful.” See also Qur’an 2:191; 4:89, 91; 8:60; 9:5, 29, 111; 47:4; 48:29, etc.

Will any news organization ask the drama kid mayor of NYC if it was a hate crime by a jihadist .Will anyone ask the joker mayor with the eternal used car dealers grin on his face if this was Islamic style terror attack. No it will labeled mental ill lone lunatic by the media and Mr. Mayor will still call the leader of Israel a war criminal who if the NYC police can not arrest the leader of Israel on his visit to NYC then the feds should do it. I am sure Mamdani will have his paid Soros minions protesting and committing vandalism and violence during the visit. If innocent NYC American citizens get hurt or killed during this he will be quick to blame Trump or Israel or APCA for those useful idiots actions .By the way was this “lone lunatic” a illegal alien or a known violent felon release without bail or both? I happen to be biking up the westside bike drive that day and the streets and paths where full of people enjoying the day .I know this happen on the east side but it could have just as easier happen a mile over to the west side where I was.
