Resurgent Al-Qaeda plan new series of spectacular attacks against airliners and airports

44

And what do the police do? Persecute innocent non-Muslims such as Paul Gait and his wife Elaine Kirk, who were detained for 36 hours without charge over the Gatwick Airport chaos — before admitting “there may never have been a drone attack.” As the real culprit remains at large four days after the attacks, police have been criticized for their “appalling investigation.”

Al Qaeda, ISIS, Hamas, Hezballah, al Shabaab, Boko Hara, CAIR, ISNA — it’s all of a piece. It’s all the same thing: war in the cause of Islam.

Resurgent Al-Qaeda plan new series of spectacular attacks against airliners and airports including drone strikes and suicide passengers, says security minister

  • Security Minister Ben Wallace said Al-Qaeda are planning attacks on airports
  • He also discussed ‘insider threat’ of terrorists working undercover in airports
  • Wallace likened Isis to the latest ‘boyband’ but said Al-Qaeda were dormant

By Leigh Mcmanus For Mailonline, 23 December 2018:

The terrorist group behind the world trade centre attacks in New York in 2001 are plotting a series of deadly new attacks that are ‘keeping ministers awake at night’.

Security Minister Ben Wallace said that Al-Qaeda are planning the attacks on airports and airliners, and even plan to use explosive-packed drones to take down targets in a bid to become the world’s most feared terrorist organisation once more.

Wallace had met with airport officials a week ago to discuss the matter just days before a rogue drone brought Gatwick Airport to a standstill.

Security Minister Ben Wallace said that Al-Qaeda are planning the new attacks on airports

Speaking to the Sunday Times, Wallace also discussed the ‘insider threat’ of terrorists working undercover in our airports.

‘The aviation threat is real. Aviation is still a blue riband event for these terrorists. Al-Qaeda are resurgent. They have reorganised. They are pushing more and more plots towards Europe and have become familiar with new methods and still aspire to aviation attacks,’ he said.

The Minister added that a joint Home Office and Department for Transport programme had pumped £25m into researching the defence of such threats.

The decline of Isis will also open up avenues for Osama bin Laden’s brainchild to stake a claim at being the world’s main terrorist organisation.

Wallace likened Isis to the latest ‘boyband’ but added that the ‘dormant’ Al Qaeda were always plotting in the background, and that a large aviation attack would be its calling card.

Al-Qaeda, founded by Osama bin Laden (left) , started the global ‘war on terror’ after the 9/11 attacks (right) on the World Trade Centre in New York in September 2001

The organisation, founded during the Soviet intervention in Afghanistan in 1988 has camps in the aforementioned as well as Pakistan, Iraq and Sudan.

It started the ‘global war on terror’ but largely faded as Isis began its ascendancy, attracting global attention and funds.

The organisation and its affiliates are now active in Syria, Afghanistan, Yemen, Libya and other countries across the Middle East.

Wallace, who served in the army in Northern Ireland, said improvements in airport security meant terrorists were less likely to smuggle explosive through terminal security systems but: ‘They have explored other ways of getting bombs on planes.’

This December 2009 file photo released by the U.S. Marshal’s Service shows Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab and Richard Reid, the British citizen accused of trying to blow up an aircraft with explosives in his shoes in 2002 (left) and Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab a Nigerian man charged with trying to blow up an international flight near Detroit on Christmas 2009, both had Al-Qaeda training

‘If you can’t get in the front door, you’re going to try to get in the back door,’ he said.

‘In 2019 we should be alert to al-Qaeda. They are re-energising some previous links and support and their ambition towards aviation is real. We saw in Australia that terrorists do what works and they don’t give up,’ he warned, referencing a failed aviation terrorism attempt in 2017.

Wallace said that while 13 Islamist terror plots have been thwarted in Britain since March 2017, new leaders are ‘stepping up’ and inspiring others to execute a ‘reunion tour’ of attacks on the west.

There have been a series of terror attempts in the west since 9/11, with Isis claiming a bulk of them in recent years.

Critics have slammed US President Donald Trump for his decision to withdraw his troops from Syria, claiming it offers a platform for the organisation to build, despite Trump declaring victory over them.

The UK found out about his decision only when he tweeted it on Wednesday and UK intelligence bosses are worried his decision will offer Isis a safe haven.

This phony alarm over Syria is amusing to me when I read about what the Mexican drug cartels do just south of the US Border in Nuevo Leon and Tamaulipas. They are heavily armed and nasty gangs that will resort to anything as bad as Moslems ever thought of.

Bring American Military home and put them on our Border with Mexico now!

It’s ridiculous. Saudi Arabia is transitioning in to help the Kurds. Saudi Arabia hats Turkey and so do the Kurds. The main fighting is over and there is no reason to be in Syria. Naturally the lying liberal media is not talking about this. Why because it might also get people thinking about the bad blood between Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Jamal K. the Muslims Brotherhood cheer leader. Turkey is hard line Islam and Saudi Arabia is not a hard line Muslim Brotherhood supporter. Saudi Arabia is the lesser of two evils but make no mistake all of Islam is evil.

CHECKMATE – Saudi Crown Prince MbS Sends Replacement Troops To Defend Kurds in Syria…
Posted on December 21, 2018 by sundance
Brilliant.

So to summarize: President Trump withdraws U.S. troops from Syria, and leverages his relationship with MbS to step up to replace them, thereby eliminating any concern that Turkey might take hostile action toward our Kurdish allies in Northern Syria.

Our troops come home; and a stable transition is ensured by a regional ally.

A 767’s take-off weight is well over 250,000 pounds (as much as ten school buses) depending on load out. A 250,000 lb. plane flying at upwards of 528 MPH has massive amounts of kinetic energy as well as up to 23 thousand gallons of fuel. If you don’t think that can take out a building you and your fellow troofers are morons.

Fifteen of the nineteen hijackers on 9/11 plus money man bin Laden were all Saudi. Which brings up the question, why did the vocal mob demand Trump drop the hammer on the Saudis when “W” let them off the hook after 9/11, going so far as facilitating some to GTFO the country before grounding all air traffic?

There are still more than 20,000 ISIS, so Trump was wrong to say they are defeated. Admit it, the American military has become quite useless at fighting wars. Leadership seems to have gone to hell and politicians have a say in how the military fights. And since when could the Saudis fight a war? Turkey and its rubbish leader, Recep Erdogan, is a treacherous Islamic supremacist excuse for an ally, yet Donald Trump listened to this goon and said, “Okay, we’ll get out and over to you” – “over” to a bloody Muslim who is gloating over what he will perceive as a victory over an infidel. His ‘taqiyya’ worked. Erdogan actually helped ISIS when it was strong, allowing it to export oil through Turkey and supplying it with food. The Russians bombed some ISIS and Turkish convoys into oblivion – which I saw in videos and considered super fun. (Obama refused to do similarly).

The alarm over Syria is not phony. Osama bin Laden planned the attack on the WTC from Afghanistan, so the harsh reality is that the fight has to be taken to the Muslims in their overseas lairs in mountains and valleys of remote places. Bill Clinton’s lot of idiots, Sandy Burger, Madelaine Albright, Clinton himself and others had the opportunity to kill Bin Laden and his henchmen in Afghanistan. The CIA and Northern Alliance at night had the camp surrounded – and then Clinton and his cowardly lot decided they they couldn’t kill this murderous lot of Muslims savages. Totally clueless and cowardly. Months later 9/11 occurred and since then there have been more than 33,500 jihad attacks worldwide.

When George W. Bush went into Afghanistan the B52’s bombed the hell out of Afghanistan and did what the Soviets had failed to do in 10 years – subdued the enemy – and then walk in. But then Bush got stupid and switched to the idiotic plan of ‘nation building’ – and it was a total flop.

The U.S. also need to know what is going on overseas before the terrorists begin operating in Mexico. And then when in Mexico the enemy shows its ugly head you kill the lot, but American politicians and military people don’t possess the ruthlessness and guts to annihilate the enemy – and clueless American politicians have too much say in how wars are fought, which is why America today is so useless at winning wars. The Russians would ruthlessly kill their enemies – as they showed in Chechnya. So would South African mercenaries (ex SA soldiers and special forces – as they showed in Nigeria. And you need an army that knows how to fight – and it’s now doubtful America does. A number of months back four Americans – supposed to be special forces – were killed in West Africa. Their conduct was testament to clueless special forces. When the Iranians some months back captured American sailors in small boats, they were able to do so because the sailors did not put up any fight – and upon being captured some cried like girls. What the hell does this tell you about guts and morale? When SEALS in Afghanistan were out on some mission, they ran into shepherds, held them for a while and then released them. The shepherds then told the Taliban where the Americans were and only one survived. I know that most people consider this a heroic story, and to some extent it is, but it was also a story about stupidity. They should have either drugged those shepherds – supposedly SEALS do carry drugs in case they get injured and have to patch themselves – or simply killed them. My bet is that British SAS would have done either.

It really doesn’t matter if it is AQ, ISIS, Daesh, ISIL or some other label for ISLAM.

The problem is ISLAM!

You smack AQ down and Daesh pops up as AQ regroups. Any of them will continue to terrorize, or slaughter non Muslims and force conversions since this is part of Islam. Leaders of any Muslim sect, want to dominate the world. Muslims are making progress as the west invites them in their countries.

Muslims are at war with us, it’s going to get worse and worse the more we avoid admitting that all Muslims are our enemy. People are literally getting raped/killed every single day because we cling to politically correct nonsense, because our media/politicians are too afraid to blame the whole evil community of psychos known as Muslims.

The funny thing is that Muslims never tell each other not to kill “moderate non-Muslims.” Or that we have mental illnesses (those who oppose Islam) so they should go easy on us.
Muslims work in unison for the same cause and they have no trouble beating, killing elderly women or children. We’re just worthless meat to them.

These people have no conscious-they’re all like a bunch of Paul Bernardos or Ted Bundys. They’re serials killers with a fake holy book. And when they outnumber us, you’ll see thousands, millions of them going into a frenzy and slaughter any non-Muslims on sight.

This is a legit war and Muslims are worse than Nazis. If you want to stop future 9/11s, deport them all and deny them any access to flights to western nations. What I don’t get is why the authorities do nothing about the tens of thousands on terror watch lists.

I guess they just want to watch them kill dozens of innocent people. No wonder Muslims think they’ll win, we do nothing to protect ourselves from them and their cult of hate, war, rape, genocide.

Ya man, they’re just completely brainwashed and are low-IQ inbreds so they lack the intelligence to even realize that they’ve been indoctrinated into a death cult.

A few bright bulbs eventually clue in, apparently 25% of Muslims in the US left Islam and converted to Atheism or Christianity but the rest remain a threat to us.

So that leaves us with no options other than the use of force, either to drive them out or eliminate them as we did with millions of Nazis.

The solution is simple. If you like the concept of gun control, you will absolutely love “drone control”. So what if the innocent law abiding citizens will suffer the unintended consequences while the psychopaths run amok? It’s no different than that which is tolerated now.

The solution is to finally recognize after 1500 years of murdering, raping,enslaving is that we are dealing not with a religion but with a criminal organization masquerading as religion and take the appropriate,time-tested steps to protect ourselves by banning the organization and deporting or otherwise isolating and immobilizing the members of that organization. Islam must be declared and accepted for what it truly is: a criminal organization.Once this is recognized then the solution to the problem is easy. Destroy the organization and imprison, deport, execute the members,especially those who pretend to be clerics when they are actually the mob bosses.

The chaos now in Syria is the perfect wave to with the help of the world’s most powerful Army (armed drones (& the US-Army, the IDF, South America, Europe & Australia)) expand & create a region without the unjust Muhammad-law. Leaving Syria to Pro-muhammadism Assad is akin to Carter handing over Iran to Khomeini, leaving North-Sudan to Omar Al-Bashir, leaving Gaza to the coalition against Non-muhammadists, leaving Nigeria to Boko Haram, leaving a part of the Philippines to Muhammadists (which just happened) or leaving Germany to the Nazis & Russians.
When Al-Queada supported by Saudi Arabia(to whom Trump now sells weapons), Iran & maybe even Germany carried out the twin-tower attacks, Muhammadists cheered.
Why? Because the media, education & governments have portrayed Muhammadism as benign. The popularity of the unjust Muhammadism in the wake of the twin-tower attacks was prepared by governments worldwide.
Had they exposed that the unjust Muhammadism was 
• supported by Hitler who viewed the unjust Muhammadism as ultimate Nazi religion that as Hitler told his architect Alber Speer matches the German temperament better,
• founded by unjust Muhammad [who ‘kissed’ penises of boys & sucked boys’ tongues & lips, started the enslavement of Africans by declaring that his unproven deity had turned Africans black so African’s descendants would be slaves to Arabs & Turks (today Africans are enslaved from Saudi Arabia to Mauritania), burned people for not praying, crucified critics, commanded clitodirectomy & declared war on atheists]
& had they provided an ethical system that upholds ethical values [truth, justice, love, American English, friendliness, ecology, human rights, global imperialism, freedom from religion & to atheism, healthy food (see DrAxe.com) & the abolition of the unjust Muhammad-law],
the twin tower attacks might not just not had been so popularly received, they most probably wouldn’t even had happened.

I said “never trust a Muslim ever” and within 15 seconds they deleted my comment. I had no foul language in my comment either. So it appears that Fox News is now Sharia compliant!

Well at least we have airport security which causes jam packed massive crowds to form as well as creating an environment in which a quietly abandoned piece of luggage will go unnoticed among hundreds of others.
