An update on this story. “Terror suspect shouting ‘Alluhu [sic] Akbar’ stabs two to death in French town locked down by coronavirus lockdown then yells ‘kill me’ as he is arrested by armed police,” by Peter Allen, MailOnline, April 4, 2020: A Sudanese refugee was in custody in France today after stabbing two people to death and wounding seven others in a suspected lone wolf terrorist attack during the coronavirus lockdown. The bloodbath took place in the town of Romans-sur-Isère, which is south of the eastern city of Lyon, late on Saturday morning. It corresponded to numerous suicidal knife attacks carried out by Islamic State-linked terrorists in France in recent years. This time, the 33-year-old – who has been identified as Abdallah A.O – was heard to shout ‘Alluhu Akbar’ – Arabic for ‘God is the Greatest’ – before lashing out with a blade. When police arrived the man screamed ‘Kill me! Kill me!’, but the officers were able to arrest him without harming him. France’s Interior Minister Christophe Castener later described how the man – who arrived from Sudan a few months ago but who was not previously known to police – attacked his victims in a bakery, a tobacconist and then out on the street, before police intervened at around 11am. France’s anti-terrorism prosecutors said Abdallah had been seeking asylum in the country despite ‘complaining about living in a country of non-believers’. A spokesman for the office said: ‘During a search carried out at his home, police found handwritten documents with religious connotation in which the author of the lines complains in particular of living in a country of non-believers.’… The Sudanese are one of the biggest groups seeking asylum in France, with many feeling violence and extreme poverty in the Darfur region, as well as political persecution…. ‘He was found on his knees on the pavement praying in Arabic,’ the prosecutor’s office said. ‘Anyone who had the misfortune to find themselves in his way were attacked,’ town mayor Marie-Helene Thoraval told AFP…. One was stabbed in the bakery, before the attacker discarded his original knife, and then went into the butchers to pick up another one. He then continued with his lethal rampage, jumping over a shop counter and sticking the butcher’s knife into a victim’s neck. The man then ran out into the street and appeared to lash out at random at anyone in his way. When police arrived he put his hands in the air and then asked to be shot. ‘He shouted at the police to kill him,’ said David Oliver, a spokesman for the Alliance national police union. ‘All the ingredients for a terrorist act are there for us.’…

Tennessee: Muslim goes on stabbing spree at truck stop, killing three women and injuring a fourth April 7, 2020 6:19 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER 55 COMMENTS Maybe Idris Abdus-Salaam was simply mentally ill. Maybe he had some relationship with his victims. But we have seen many times jihadis going on stabbing sprees in Europe, and the Islamic State issued this call in September 2014: So O muwahhid, do not let this battle pass you by wherever you may be. You must strike the soldiers, patrons, and troops of the tawaghit. Strike 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. If you can kill a disbelieving American or European — especially the spiteful and filthy French — 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….If you are not able to find an IED or a bullet, then single out the disbelieving American, Frenchman, or any of their allies. Smash his head with a rock, or slaughter 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…. “Durham truck driver killed after stabbing 3 to death at Tennessee truck stop,” WATE, April 7, 2020: KNOXVILLE, Tenn.

Canada: Muslim woman who was identified as Islamic State recruiter herself hoped to attain “martyrdom” APR 7, 2020 4:00 PM BY CHRISTINE DOUGLASS-WILLIAMS “An Edmonton woman has been identified by intelligence officials as an alleged ISIS supporter and Al Shabaab member and who recruited a young Canadian to travel to Syria….Instructions on how to build a bomb were found on her computer, according to the documents, which also allege she is ‘committed’ to ISIS and ‘was/is a senior member’ of Al Shabaab, the Somali terrorist group.” Yet Ayan Jama still remains uncharged and at large: “She continues to live in Edmonton but two sources said she had remarried and was working to turn her life around.” And she is not even close to being the only one: “The government says there are currently about 60 such people in the country. Few have faced charges. Internal government files have described the challenges of prosecuting them due to the difficulty of proving what they did outside Canada.” In 2018, Breitbart shed light on leaked documents from the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) that showed that “the intelligence service is far more concerned with Islamic terrorism behind closed doors than the left-wing Trudeau government will admit in public.” One of the documents contained a report from a committee hearing; it stated: “The Service has never before faced a terrorist threat of the scope, scale and complexity of Sunni Islamist-inspired terrorism.” It was also revealed a year earlier that dozens of jihadis were walking free in Canada, yet authorities won’t charge them. “Edmonton woman ‘committed’ to ISIS ‘facilitated extremist activities,’ secret documents allege,” by Stewart Bell, Global News, April 3, 2020: An Edmonton woman has been identified by intelligence officials as an alleged ISIS supporter and Al Shabaab member and who recruited a young Canadian to travel to Syria, Global News has learned. Top Secret documents publicly disclosed in court, and obtained by Global News, also allege that Ayan Jama, 31, “has indicated a desire to attain martyrdom.” Instructions on how to build a bomb were found on her computer, according to the documents, which also allege she is “committed” to ISIS and “was/is a senior member” of Al Shabaab, the Somali terrorist group. “She has participated in the recruitment and radicalization of a Canadian, whose eventual travel overseas to Syria was encouraged and partially financed by her,” according to the documents. Her husband, Mohamed Sakr, was a “senior figure” in Al Shabaab (AS). He was stripped of British citizenship by U.K. authorities and killed in a 2012 drone strike. Despite the government’s allegations, Jama has not been charged with any terrorism offences. Her lawyer declined to comment, but the documents indicate she has denied any involvement in terrorism. She continues to live in Edmonton but two sources said she had remarried and was working to turn her life around. The explosive allegations identify Jama as a returnee — someone who has come back to Canada after having participated in terrorist activities overseas. The government says there are currently about 60 such people in the country. Few have faced charges. Internal government files have described the challenges of prosecuting them due to the difficulty of proving what they did outside Canada. Concerns about Jama’s alleged past are detailed in government documents filed in a highly-secretive case before the Federal Court that centres around her attempt to renew her Canadian passport….
