IEDs in NYC. Islamists Attack anti-Islam Protest

Thank God the two Muslims arrested were not the sharpest tools in the shed. The devices were filled with home-brew TATP - the explosive of choice of Islamic terrorists worldwide. They didn’t get the formula right and the devices failed to go off. But it wasn’t for lack of trying. They were targeting a protest outside Gracie Mansion whose aim was to raise awareness about the Islamification of NYC. The Muslim call to prayer is now broadcast in the city. The two wannabe terrorists threw the devices at the anti-Islam protesters while someone shouted “Allah Akbar.” They later told police they targeted the protest because “they insulted our religion.” That's the religion of peace for you.

Interestingly, Mayor Mamdani’s statement implies that the anti-Islam protesters were the problem and threw the devices …

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.

I want to thank the brave men and women of the NYPD who acted quickly to keep New Yorkers safe. Our officers ran toward danger without hesitation, demonstrating once again the courage and dedication it takes to protect this city every single day.

My administration is closely monitoring the situation and I remain in close contact with our Police Commissioner.

Talk about fake news. The local news followed suit, breathlessly reporting that the Mayor and his wife are safe … as if they were in danger.

    We can't count on the stupidity of our enemies. Just another good reason for border enforcement and for the illegal invaders already here to be expelled. Ice Barbie was a disaster, but the job does need done by competent people.

    I hope Markwayne Mullin doesn’t do the job in an MMA outfit.

    I checked "mainstream" news outlets (starting with CNN) to verify that, yes, indeed, they are reporting the IED attack in a way that implies that the "anti-Islamist" protesters were responsible for the IED. Only if you know information reported only in the "right-wing" press would you know how to read between the lines of the "mainstream" "news" reports to understand that Islamists were the people throwing the bomb.

    Mayor Mamdani is making it harder for him and his allies to deny that his primary goal is the Islamification of America, starting with New York City.

    Mayor Mamdani is also making it clearer that he supports terrorism, IF it is from the Left and/or in support of Islamification of American society.

    Yes, I heard this on NPR news this morning at 8AM central (new time, Oh I hate losing that hour). My first thought was how did they know it was an anti-Islam protest? Thanks for "the rest of the story."
