My latest in PJ Media:
Edward Schimenti of the Chicago suburb of Zion, Illinois, wants you to know that he’s “just a big teddy bear”: he said so during his sentencing hearing on Friday, when he got thirteen and a half years for aiding the Islamic State (ISIS) and joined the long and ever-lengthening list of converts to Islam who turn to terrorism, even in the United States, and are largely ignored by the establishment media, which as everyone knows or should know by now, is interested only in shoring up its narrative, not in reporting actual facts.
According to the Justice Department, “evidence at trial revealed that Schimenti advocated on social media for violent extremism in support of the terrorist group. In 2015, Schimenti began meeting with undercover FBI employees and individuals who, unbeknownst to Schimenti, were cooperating with law enforcement. During the meetings, Schimenti discussed his devotion to ISIS and his commitment to ISIS principles.”
When it came to ISIS, Schimenti was a true believer, writing: “Islamic State will control your country, matter of fact, Islam will dominate the world!!” AP noted that Schimenti’s Google Plus profile showed “a masked man holding a knife and standing alongside an IS flag. A caption reads in capital letters that if you can’t travel abroad to fight, ‘then slaughter the pagans next to you.’”
Schimenti didn’t just talk. The Justice Department explained that two FBI informants met with Schimenti, posing as ISIS operatives. After initially being suspicious enough to leave a meeting abruptly, Schimenti fell for the ruse: “In 2017, Schimenti furnished cellular phones to one of the cooperating individuals, believing the phones would be used to detonate explosive devices in ISIS attacks overseas. On April 7, 2017, Schimenti drove with the cooperating individual to O’Hare International Airport in Chicago, with the understanding that the cooperating individual would be traveling to Syria to fight with ISIS.” As he saw the man he thought was his comrade, Schimenti told him to “drench that land with they, they blood.” On another occasion, he declared: “I want to see blood flowing, either way.”
There is more. Read the rest here.

A Big Teddy Bear? Well, just make sure you don’t call any puppet Teddy Bear by the name “Mohammed.” Eh? Think Sudan to “sustain” this point of mine.
The rot about Islam will never end until the rot which is Islam is called out for what it really is—rot.
Again I say to ALL adult Muslims, there is no Allah, the Koran is a hate manual, the character of Mohammed was that of a brutal, narcissistic psychopath and your religion is a massive burden to mankind and a total fraud.
May Allah strike me dead tonight if I am wrong about all this—and Muslims terminating my existence DOESN”T COUNT. No, Allah has to do this.
Be back tomorrow, losers.

Humans kill for Ideology. Bears have no ideology.
This is like the ‘No True Scotsman’ fallacy. Well, normally placid Muslims have been known during jihad to turn from teddy bears into bears with fangs and claws.
During the Armenian Genocide, many Muslims turned on their Christian neighbors … people they had known for years. They behaved heartlessly. They behaved worse than beasts. Beasts kill for food. Humans kill for Ideology.
¨We must remind people until they get it: ‘IT’S THE IDEOLOGY, STUPID.’
Wellington says
You’ve just made, mortimer, an effective and convincing argument for the ursine population here on this tiny planet. Far less so for that very confused, screwed-up species, Homo sapiens.
Bears don’t kill for ideological reasons. Humans do. Hmmm. Wondering right now who is the superior one here. I lean to the former.

Mortimer,
Every time I watch Clint Eastwood’s “For a Few Dollars More”, Col Mortimer, played by Lee Van Cleef, reminds me of you.

Lovely couple.

Yes they would be quite suitable as something that lives in a cave and grunts a lot

I hate to change the subject, but can someone tell me how to find the Ramadan Bombathon 2021 kills and attack statistics? The religion of peace does not seem to do that this year.
Many friends who are used to me updating daily are going through Ramadan Bombathon withdrawal.

Nice one thank you. You know I saw the wiki page of Jihad Watch, which is complete garbage – it describes JW as far right wing. Seriously, doesn’t 1400 years of history show that a leopard doesn’t change its spots. It’s just that now we’ve put out the welcome mat and allowed the enemy to swan into our countries, change our laws to suit them and then kill our people as and when they feel. Then, any criticism is labelled Islamophobia – it really is incredible how stupid people have become.
I am reading Swords and Scimitars at the moment and it is brilliant. Should be taught in schools.
We are blindly walking down a road to complete self destruction, especially as far left politics is running everything right now – my goodness we are in a mess.
medaber_emet says
you are so right
the F muslims eרק taking advantage of our PC stupidiy
the westen civillisation is doomed
unless there will be declared world war against islam
only problem is that our leaders are all eunuchs
non of them is brave enough to tekll the truth

JayBee,
Wikipedia is, to put it mildly, an “interesting” news source.
Some things, it does very well:
If you want the specs on a ’63 Corvette, or the detailed results of the 1986 Masters golf tournament, it’s spot on.
Anything political, however, and it takes a hard left turn – either by what it leaves in or what it leaves out.
I use Wikipedia only for the things that is useful for.
In other words, reader beware…

if you ask me the punishment for such a nice guy
should have been like this
revoking his and his family american citizenship
giving them a parachute and puting them on a plane
droping them off above the islamic state
and may alla be with them

Drop him in Englewood (Southside suburb of Chicago). He won’t last 10 minutes.

Ha ha, awesome comment, I’m sure you slept like a “Teddy Bear” as you waited for Allah’s wrath to rain down on you!
Ben Kennedy says
To self identify as just a “big teddy bear” was more of an insult to our law than a desperate appeal for a lighter sentence. He may see himself as some sort of bear, mauling anyone around him, but the “teddy bear” claim is as insulting as this coward could be. My take is he has some measure of fear going into the cell block with peers who are not necessarily ideological peers. I expect he will be treated like the virgins which he wants to be rewarded with. Some real angry white supremacist who is also looking for his virgins may smell him even before he sees him.
