Paris, Then Copenhagen

THE "RANDOM" PATTERN

Paris, France, (January 7, 2015): The offices of Charlie Hebdo, noted for satiric cartoons lampooning Islam, were attacked. A few days later, an Islamic terrorist attack was perpetrated upon a Jewish deli. Sixteen killed, twenty-two wounded in these attacks.

Copenhagen, Denmark (February 14, 2015): A café hosting "Freedom of Expression and Art Blasphemy," a free-speech seminar, was attacked. At this seminar, cartoonist Lars Vilks was scheduled to speak; he may have been the primary target of the Islamic terrorist, who fired as many as 200 rounds. A few hours later, a Jewish cultural center (a synagogue) was attacked.  See the Daily Mail for more information. The suspect, on a watch list, apparently lived in the Nørrebro District of Copenhagen. The Nørrebro District is poly-cultural; a significant portion of those living there are Arabs, Turks, Pakistanis, Bosnians, Somalians, and Albanians. Two dead, five wounded in these attacks.

Following the attacks in Copenhagen, Infidel Knight, a commenter at Weasel Zippers, made the following comment (lightly edited):

Hey, America!  Take a real close look at what's going on. Europe rolled out the red carpet and encouraged Muslim immigration. Um, we've been doing the same. Vastly accelerated since 2009.  Imagine that!  Our borders are wide open. Good thing Muslims are so law abiding; otherwise, they might cross through. We're actually allowing American citizens who've gone and trained with these rabid animals to come back into America as if they had been on a trip to Disneyland. Where I come from, you go train with the enemy in a time of war,  you are the enemy and a traitor!

Islam's history is utterly irrefutable.  What we see from afar now, soon we'll see and feel here. It's simply unavoidable. Islam was conceived and born for one purpose: conquest and submission. What we face is the ultimate "death match." Either we or they will die, they've decided this. We get no voice or vote in this matter.  Mohammed and Allah have decreed it so.

Infidel Knight then posted the following excellent video — an important reality check:



For good measure, here is the 2008 version of the film Fitna:

Islam is the trigger for these "random" attacks upon freedom.

The First Man Killed in Saturday's Shootings in Copenhagen Was Filmmaker Finn Norgaard

Filmmaker Finn Norgaard 

The first victim of Saturday's shootings in Copenhagen was the 55 year old film director finn Norgaard

From the blog page:

"According to Ekstra Bladet Two men arrested in Copenhagen. They arrived at the place in the car when police were investigating an apartment - they were arrested, and the police investigated the car.
Police have still not confirmed whether the arrests on Oesterbro related to shooting attacks."

(googletranslate) PET known suspected terrorist in advance 
PET chief Jens Madsen says that PET knew of the alleged perpetrator hehind Saturday's terror in Copenhagen.

PET has had prior knowledge of the alleged perpetrator behind Saturday's terror attack in Copenhagen early Sunday afternoon.
-It is a person who has been in PET's radar, says Jens Madsen
The police can not yet say anything well proven on the motive behind the attack, but you are working from a theory that the attacks on Krudttønden and synagogue can be inspired by the terrorist attack on satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo in Paris in January.
After the attack on Krudttønden where the man initially hijacked a VW Polo, which he fled, he took a taxi to the settlement Mjølnerparken in Nørrebro in Copenhagen.
Here he arrived at 16:17, and 20 minutes later he left the place again. Meanwhile, he had changed clothes. The new clothes he was wearing when he around one o'clock Sunday night struck against the synagogue in Krystalgade.And when the man was shot and killed near Nørrebro Station early Sunday morning, he was wearing the same clothes as the synagogue attack.The investigation continues into the future. Here, the police must clarify the man's whereabouts up to the attacks, between the attacks and after the attacks in detail.

In addition, a number of technical studies conducted to finally be able to establish that the alleged offender is actually the perpetrator.

For the sake of the investigation, the police will therefore not currently say more about the man's identity.

UPDATED --- BREAKING NEWS - SHOTS FIRED AT COPENHAGEN SYNAGOGUE - Unconfirmed: The Danish army seems to be in central Copenhagen

I'm sure it's just a bunch of folks being randomly shot up, right?

COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - One person was shot in the head and two police were wounded in an attack on a synagogue in central Copenhagen, Danish police said, adding that it was too early to say whether the incident was connected to an earlier one at an arts cafe. 

Danish television station TV2 said a large metro and train station nearby, Norreport, was being evacuated. 

The news followed a shooting attack earlier Saturday on a cafe which hosted a debate on freedom of speech and was attended by Swedish artist Lars Vilks, who has been threatened with death for his cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad. One man died in that attack, and police said a suspect was still at large.
