The Religion Of Peace In The News

 Islam is always in the news--and not in good ways. Here is a sampling of some recent stories:

• "Miles from Nation's Capital, ICE Arrests ISIS-K Afghan Terrorist Who Was Released into the U.S. Under Biden’s Operation Allies Welcome"--Dept. of Homeland Security. From the news release:

    The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem today announced U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) agents arrested Jaan Shah Safi, an Afghan national who entered the United States under Biden’s “Operation Allies Welcome,” who provided support to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria-Khorasan (ISIS-K). He also provided weapons to his father who is a commander of a militia group in Afghanistan. This terrorist was arrested in Waynesboro, Virginia.

    Safi is an illegal alien terrorist who entered the U.S. on September 8, 2021, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, under the Biden administration’s Operation Allies Welcome.  He applied for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) but his application was terminated once Secretary Noem ended TPS for Afghans. On December 3, 2025, under the leadership of President Trump and Secretary Noem, ICE arrested Safi.

 Somewhere, a deeply disappointed Biden is eating his ice cream.

• "Pakistani immigrant arrested with car full of guns, plans to carry out mass shooting— and chilling note about ‘martyrdom’"--New York Post.  

     A University of Delaware student and immigrant from Pakistan was arrested with a cache of guns, ammunition and body armor, and a manifesto allegedly explaining plans to “kill all” and achieve “martyrdom” with a mass shooting on the school’s campus.

    Luqmaan Khan, 25, was arrested just before midnight on Nov. 24 after cops found him in his pickup truck in a park after hours, and decided to search the car when he began acting suspiciously.

Among his "cache of arms" was a Glock switch allowing his handgun to shoot full auto. As of now, Khan has been charged with possession of a machine gun, a felony. 

• "Court Eases Sentence For Afghan Who 'Showed Restraint' After 'Only' Stabbing Teacher Six Times"--Zero Hedge.  The article relates that a "29-year-old Afghan migrant has been sentenced to six years in prison for stabbing a 27-year-old teacher at random on the street, in the middle of the day, in the German city of Kirchheim unter Teck." Basically, the Afghan migrant started repeatably stabbing the woman until she screamed for help, at which time he ran off, undoubtedly out of fear of being caught. But the dummkopf judge decided that because the migrant had stopped stabbing her when she screamed, he had abandoned his intent to kill her, and so dropped the charge of attempted murder. It doesn't work that way. Once he formed his intent and took a substantial step toward committing the crime the attempt was completed. That he failed in his attempt does not change the fact that he made the attempt. Apparently German judges are not required to understand basic legal principles?
