Times Square Jihad Terrorist Recited Qur’an Verses to Prep for Attack
“Fight against those who do not believe in Allah. Wage a holy war.” In my original writeup on the Times Square Muslim terrorist, I noted that, “Trevor Bickford, 19, had taken the train down from Wells, Maine: a town of less than 10,000 souls.

Times Square jihadi wanted to ‘kill people and carry out jihad’ because of US support for Israel
How did this young convert to Islam get the idea that his new religion, which all authorities in the West assure us teaches peace and tolerance, commanded him to become violently anti-Semitic and anti-American?

Muslim who stabbed two cops in Times Square on New Year’s Eve screamed ‘Allahu akbar’
The phrase “Allahu akbar” is routinely translated in the English-language media as “God is great,” a resoundingly uncontroversial phrase by any standard. In reality, however, that is a mistranslation. “Allahu akbar” actually means “Allah is greater,” a subtle but important difference. Rather than simply being a proclamation of the greatness of the divine, “Allahu akbar” […]
Man Who Stabbed Two Cops in Times Square Left Chilling Manifesto
New in PJ Media: 19-year-old Trevor Bickford stabbed two cops with a machete in Times Square on New Year’s Eve, and authorities are scratching their heads and wondering why.

Muslim who stabbed cops in Times Square wanted to target ‘a uniformed officer’ he considered an ‘enemy of the state’
Which state? The New York Post, as hopeless as the rest of the establishment media, shows no curiosity about this question. But clearly Trevor Bickford, after he converted to Islam, was no stalwart American patriot.
