Was There Just a Jihad Terror Attack in Fargo, North Dakota?<\/a><\/p>\n

On Friday afternoon, police in Fargo, North Dakota, responded to a report of a car crash at 9th Avenue South and 25th Street South. Fargo Police Chief David Zibolski\u00a0said<\/a>\u00a0it was a \u201croutine traffic accident,\u201d but what happened when they arrived on the scene was anything but routine. A Fargo resident named Mohamad Barakat<\/strong>, 37, opened fire on the officers, killing one and injuring three others. Zibolski said that Barakat attacked the officers \u201cfor no known reason,\u201d and authorities have as yet offered no hints as to the shooter\u2019s motive. One of the most obvious possibilities, however, is being steadfastly ignored, as one might expect given today\u2019s media narrative.<\/p>\n

A witness said, according to the\u00a0Associated Press<\/a>, that Barakat \u201cappeared to have ambushed the officers.\u201d He was standing behind a car that was parked in the parking lot of a bank near the scene of the crash, and he quickly opened fire on the police officers from about twenty feet away. The witness added, \u201cHe was holding up the trunk of the car with his arm, and then I see the gun come up, and he set it on his shoulder and just pointed it directly at an officer in front of him. It was like 10 shots right away.\u201d<\/p>\n

When Barakat began shooting, the police were busy with the traffic accident and weren\u2019t even looking in his direction, but they quickly began to return fire. Another witness recounted, \u201cI saw them firing at each other, both at once. But soon as the shooter took a break, the cop came walking towards him, letting off round after round. There was already an officer down, and a family hiding just on the other side of the vehicle next to the shooter.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zibolski, however, declined to confirm that Barakat had ambushed the officers, saying only, \u201cThe investigation into that is still ongoing.\u201d He did reveal, however, that Fargo police had previously dealt with Barakat, although he downplayed these encounters as \u201cnot anything significant.\u201d<\/p>\n

Above all, Zibolski was puzzled. \u201cThe first thing we always want to know in a situation like this is, \u2018Why?\u2019\u201d said Zibolski. \u201cWhy would somebody do this? What happened?\u201d And he\u00a0expressed<\/a>\u00a0amazement that such an incident could take place in Fargo, North Dakota: \u201cThis is an unconscionable act. It\u2019s hard to fathom, it\u2019s unbelievable that something like this would happen in our community. Many of us think this stuff can\u2019t happen. It just happened.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yes, it did. And Zibolski added that the FBI had been called in, but given the fact that the feds are now far more interested in finding \u201cdomestic terrorists\u201d at\u00a0school board meetings<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Catholic churches<\/a>\u00a0than in hunting down actual terrorists, Zibolski may still not get an answer to his question of why someone would do such a thing. FBI agents today would likely not recognize an Islamic jihadist if he stood behind a car and started shooting at them, but Mohamad Barakat may have been one. There is no indication that anyone is looking into this possibility, but it would provide an immediate explanation for the details of the case.<\/p>\n

This is because the Islamic State (ISIS) has repeatedly called upon Muslims in the West to attack police officers as well as other authorities. Back in September 2014, the Islamic State\u00a0exhorted<\/a>\u00a0Muslims in the West not to \u201clet this battle pass you by wherever you may be.\u201d It called upon them to \u201ckill a disbelieving\u00a0American\u00a0or\u00a0European\u00a0\u2014 especially the spiteful and filthy French \u2014 or an Australian, or a Canadian, or any other disbeliever from the disbelievers waging war, including the citizens of the countries that entered into a coalition against the Islamic State, then rely upon Allah, and kill him in any manner or way however it may be.\u201d<\/p>\n

Specifically, the jihadis said: \u201cStrike their police, security, and intelligence members, as well as their treacherous agents. Destroy their beds. Embitter their lives for them and busy them with themselves.\u201d The jihadis should take advantage of all opportunities and means to kill: \u201cIf you are not able to find an IED or a\u00a0bullet<\/strong>, then single out the disbelieving American, Frenchman, or any of their allies. Smash his head with a rock, or\u00a0slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car, or throw him down from a high place, or choke him, or poison him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now, Mohamad Barakat may have had entirely different reasons for his attack. But the possibility that this was a jihad terror attack in Fargo, North Dakota, cannot be dismissed out of hand, even as authorities appear disinclined even to consider it as a possibility. The FBI and the entire Biden regime have never given any indication that they\u2019re aware that the global jihad continues. Unfortunately, it does.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
