The year 624 AD marked a turning point in world history, when the Arab brigands choosing to follow a self-declared prophet named Muhammad ibn Abdullah al-Quraysh hit upon a unique recipe.īefore the “ Nakhla Raid,” the caravan attacks committed by the first disciples of the person 1.6 billion Muslims now revere as their Prophet Muhammad were calamitous failures. So, instead, the first followers of Islam chose to combine violence with deception.

The link between the month of Ramadan and extreme violence in Islam is an ancient one. In addition, Ramadan traditionally sees a leap in criminal conduct in the Islamic world, as well as a spike in obesity cases due to the gorging commonplace at night-time. The spike in religiously-motivated killing during this Islamic month will be of no surprise to citizens of the Muslim world, where the total dead thanks to jihadist attacks stands at 532 this Ramadan and counting. Mohammed Khalid, a migrant-origin Somali in Texas, was shot dead by a local SWAT team after a hostage situation at a Walmart in Amarillo yesterday. As Breitbart revealed in January, the Panhandle city contains the largest ratio of Muslim “refugees” already permitted entry into the US. This weeks’ casualty list now also includes two senior French police officers, including the chief of police of a Parisian suburb. The married couple were killed by Larossi Abballa, who live-streamed his murders on Facebook claiming it was his holy duty during Ramadan. The case has caused political uproar in France, but is receiving mooted coverage in the United Kingdom, which is preparing to vote on independence from the EU on June 23.Ī further Ramadan-motivated attack in France, by an as yet unnamed assailant, saw the stabbing of a 19-year old French girl as she waited for a bus in Rennes on Tuesday. The position of the Muslim holy month changes yearly as a result of the Islamic calendar’s basis on a lunar cycle. The ten days of Ramadan so far this year have seen several attacks in the West, including the worst mass shooting in US history committed in Orlando, on Sunday. The other ISIS unit, for which no targeting information has presently been disclosed, is headed towards France. Several cities in France are currently hosting the Euro 2016 soccer tournament, whose timing coincides with Ramadan. Having exploited the EU’s freedom of movement rules, the aim of the forward deployed terrorist group, reports Reuters, is to split into two units. The first of these is aimed at attacking Belgium, where potential targets include a shopping center, police station and fast-food restaurants.
