This one was different. The ‘Islamophobes’ screamed ‘Allahu akbar.’
New York politicians have gotten a chance to display righteous indignation, and there is nothing that politicians love more than a chance to display righteous indignation. “New York,” wrote far-left New York state Senator Liz Krueger, “is no place for anti-Muslim hate or any other kind of prejudice. We don’t need out-of-state provocateurs sowing fear, division, and violence in our city.”
Rep. Dan Goldman (D-Out to Lunch) agreed: “This is pure, blatant Islamophobia. This sort of hateful violence must be universally condemned, and those responsible should be apprehended and prosecuted. I’m glad the Mayor and his family are safe.”
Krueger and Goldman were referring to an incident that took place in New York City on Saturday. Never to be outdone in the righteous indignation sweepstakes, New York City’s Comrade Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani described what happened this way: “Yesterday, white supremacist Jake Lang organized a protest outside Gracie Mansion rooted in bigotry and racism. Such hate has no place in New York City. It is an affront to our city’s values and the unity that defines who we are. What followed was even more disturbing. Violence at a protest is never acceptable. The attempt to use an explosive device and hurt others is not only criminal, it is reprehensible and the antithesis of who we are.”
Wow. Those evil right-wing Islamophobes, eh? So they came from another state in order to commit some act of violence outside Gracie Mansion, eh? And apparently they even targeted Mamdani himself, along with his blushing bride, eh?
That’s certainly what the establishment media wants you to think. The CBS News story about what happened carries the headline “Improvised explosive found at protests near Manhattan’s Gracie Mansion, Mamdani’s official residence, NYPD says.” Then it leads off by talking about “anti-Islam” protesters, giving the impression that they targeted Mamdani.
Only six paragraphs down does CBS note that “a counter-protester, identified as 18-year-old Emir Balat of Pennsylvania, lit and threw an ignited device toward the protesters.” Then in the next paragraph, we learn that “in videos depicting the chaos, a man appears to yell ‘Allahu Akbar’ just as Balat throws the device that [NYPD Commissioner Jessica] Tisch described as ‘a jar wrapped in tape, importantly with nuts, bolts, and screws along with a hobby fuse.’” --->READ MORE HERE
A pair of ISIS-trained extremists were charged with hurling an IED at Gracie Mansion duringa rowdy weekend protest — allegedly packing the homemade bomb with “Mother of Satan,” a volatile explosive favored by international terrorists.
The two pro-Muslim fanatics – Ibraham Kayumi, 19, and Emir Balat, 18 – both self-radicalized in recent years and traveled to Turkey and other terror-training hot spots, law enforcement sources close to the case told The Post.
Balat spent more than three months in Istanbul last year, while Ibrahim flew to Istanbul and Saudi Arabia in 2024, and made a trip to Melbourne, Australia in 2019, the sources said.
The pair admitted to cops after getting busted at the violent demonstration outside the mayor’s residence on Saturday afternoon that they also watched ISIS videos and tossed the bomb at right-wing agitators because they felt the agitators insulted their religion, the sources said.
The homemade device consisted of sports drink bottles filled with triacetone triperoxide, or TATP, a substance favored by terrorists and known as “Mother of Satan” — which is so volatile that it typically doesn’t require a fuse to go off, they said.
The dangerous substance can be cobbled together using household ingredients readily available at home improvement stores and pharmacies, making it cheap to produce.
“It’s designed to maim and kill,” one source told The Post. “This is just luck no one is dead.”
The same type of bomb was used in high-profile terror attacks in France, the UK, Belgium and New Delhi over more than a decade — often with fatal consequences.
Fortunately, it failed to go off during the Saturday afternoon clash between demonstrators backing right-wing activist Jake Lang and pro-Muslim counter-protesters. --->READ MORE HEREFollow link below to a relevant story:
