Terrorism in Salt Lake City

Washington, DC (TLS). Although the mainstream media and the Salt Lake police have been reluctant to correctly identify Mall killer Sulejmen Talovic as a Bosnian Muslim refugee, word comes today that the perpetrator's father believes his son had been adversely influenced by some unnamed entity. In an interview today a local Salt Lake television news affiliate reported that the elder Talovic stated that judging from the manner in which his son killed his victims and the manner in which he died, it is clear that he was being influenced by somebody, somewhere with malevolent intent.

Investigations into the possible motives of the killer, who was killed in a shootout with police at the scene, indicate that Talovic had been a faithful attendee at a local Muslim mosque. According to reports, Talovic had suddenly stopped showing up at the mosque about a month ago after reading material concerning recruitment of young men by Islamic extremists to serve in the worldwide Jihad.

These reports are as yet unconfirmed. However, a recent article in a major investment journal reported on the phenomenon which has become known around the world as 'Sudden Jihad Syndrome.' This phenomenon occurs in young men of the Muslim faith who had no previous record of violence, but after reading, hearing, or watching descriptions of the goals and objectives of Muslim Jihadists they will often suddenly and with no prior indication burst forth into a fury of random violence.

The Talovic case is eerily similar to another incident of sudden random violence on the part of a Muslim young man in North Carolina. As reported in The Liberty Sphere's exclusive report on Terror Cells in North Carolina, a 22-year-old Muslim by the name of Mohammed Taheri-azar plowed his vehicle into a group of students on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, injuring nine. The attacker wrote a local news reporter and stated that his motivation for the attack was the Koran. Taheri-azar is also a member of the Raleigh chapter of the Muslim American Society (MAS).

Sudden Jihad Syndrome is a risk factor for young impressionable Muslim young men who are vulnerable to the inflammatory rhetoric of extremist Islamic factions, who are adept at recruiting young Muslims for the Jihad.

Thus, while the FBI, the mainstream media, and the local police fall all over themselves to avoid consideration of a link between the Mall attack and Muslim Jihadists, with each passing day it is appearing more and more certain that the Salt Lake attack was an act of Muslim terrorism. And with each squandered opportunity for the Department of Homeland Security and other law enforcement agencies to identify, track down, and arrest shadowy figures in the murky world of the Muslim Jihad, the nation edges closer to another major terrorist attack.

why must the rest of the Muslim community suffer for what some Muslims are doing? i just want it to be known that before people use this as another excuse to group all Muslims into one terrorist group, that not everyone is the same.

Anonymous,

A point well-taken. However, why is it that Muslim groups are very slow to denounce, condemn, and repudiate extremists, including terrorists? CAIR forced the City of Los Angeles to remove a billboard referring to Osama bin Laden as a terrorist because it supposedly was 'offensive to Muslims.' Why?

Osama bin Laden is the one who should be offensive to Muslims. Any terrorist should be offensive to Muslims. And until the entire Muslim community with one unified voice isolates and condemns the extremists in their midst, we will continue to lump you all together.

Give us reason not to. So far, the silence and the refusal of the Muslim community to resoundingly repudiate these murderers speaks volumes.
