Moonlight Graham Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 For some reason this isn't a headline story much of anywhere, given recent events in the world: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/incident-canadian-tire-rcmp-toronto-police-islamic-state-1.4147750 Quote A woman accused of assault and threatening people with a knife in a Canadian Tire store in Scarborough, Ont., on the weekend swore allegiance to an ISIS leader at her court appearance on Tuesday. "I am pledged to the leaders of the believers, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi," Rehab Dughmosh, 32, said in reference to the leader of the Islamic State. Dughmosh made the statement without waiting for Justice of the Peace Alice Napier to begin proceedings in Toronto. Dughmosh has been charged with two counts of assault with a weapon, assault, uttering threats, carrying a concealed weapon, and two counts of possession of a weapon. An employee at the store, located in Cedarbrae Mall, was injured, but the injuries sustained were non-life-threatening, Toronto police said in a news release on Tuesday. In court she was also wearing a niqab with the ISIS symbol on it: http://globalnews.ca/news/3506039/woman-isis-knife-attack-toronto-mall/ Quote "All generalizations are false, including this one." - Mark Twain Partisanship is a disease of the intellect.

What made me think she wasn't quite attached to reality was the part of the story when she declared herself before the judge started proceedings. People with all screws firmly attached tend to be able to follow events well enough to know not to blurt things out randomly in court.

Hal 9000 Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 What makes any of you think she is a "nutjob"?

Peter F Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 Well, if what she did was entirely rational, what's that say about all the Muslims that didn't do what she did? Quote A bayonet is a tool with a worker at both ends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betsy Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 They easily dismiss radicalism as a "nutjob," like as if it doesn't pose any danger just because it is. Whether she's a nutjob or not - it's sickening to have all these nutjobs in our country! We've already have our own nutjobs to worry about - we shouldn't import any more! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's 32. It says so right in the article. Oh and for the record, I'm currently reading Peter Townsend's book Questioning Islam. It warns "Islam apologists" in the intro that they're not going to like what he writes. So far, I have no problem with his criticisms of Islam. Probably because they're based on evidence and not the xenophobic fear-mongering found on this forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only commented on her age. Mostly because in another topic about a terrorist woman who screamed at doctors who were trying to help her after she was shot to "not touch me!" you argued that you would do the same thing if faced with armed police officers. I don't think you read that article either, because it clearly stated she was injured while being arrested as a terrorist and was refusing help from doctors because they were male. 2 Quote "There are two different types of people in the world - those who want to know and those who want to believe." ~~ Friedrich Nietzsche ~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boges Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 (edited) Just because she says she's from ISIS doesn't mean she really is. It's not like being part of ISIS has extensive vetting.

The way this woman conducted herself, I suspect mental health is more at play than anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hal 9000 Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 Maybe you people have a point, if saying you have an allegiance to ISIS makes you a nutjob, don't we have a right under law to round up all the "nutjobs" and institutionalize them. This seems like a pretty good tactic. Considering England now has 23,000 known "nutjobs" on their radar, it should make dealing with this issue a little easier. 2 Quote The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so. - Ronald Reagan I have said that the Western world is just as violent as the Islamic world - Dialamah Europe seems to excel at fooling people to immigrate there from the ME only to chew them up and spit them back. - Eyeball Unfortunately our policies have contributed to retarding and limiting their (Muslim's) society's natural progression towards the same enlightened state we take for granted. - Eyeball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
