ISIS has moved it in that direction by actually taking over countries and attempting to govern them, but generally speaking the soldiers in the war on terror have been individuals. Sometimes they are people who have been through terrorist training, and sometimes they are simply people who have taken the violent scriptures of the <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Quran\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Quran\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">Koran<\/a> to heart. Because these terrorists\u00a0often\u00a0commit their crimes as individuals rather than in a group, they are harder to track down and stop. Sometimes the only barrier to a successful terror attack is the people at the scene of the attack. We saw that in Texas at the &#8220;Draw Mohammed&#8221; contest and recently on the train from <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Paris, Banks of the Seine\" href=\"http:\/\/whc.unesco.org\/en\/list\/600\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"unesco\">Paris<\/a> to <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Amsterdam\" href=\"http:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps?ll=52.3730555556,4.89222222222&amp;spn=0.1,0.1&amp;q=52.3730555556,4.89222222222 (Amsterdam)&amp;t=h\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"geolocation\">Amsterdam<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Robert Spencer (author)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.jihadwatch.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"homepage\">Robert Spencer<\/a>, a well-known expert on <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Islamism\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Islamism\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">Islamism<\/a>, posted an article at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.frontpagemag.com\/fpm\/259897\/france-train-jihadi-dumbfounded-be-accused-robert-spencer\" target=\"_blank\">Frontpage Magazine<\/a> today about the attack on the Paris to Amsterdam train. The article illustrates the\u00a0Muslim principle of war\u00a0called &#8220;taqiyya.&#8221; &#8220;Taqiyya&#8221; is defined as lying for the sake of Islam. It is permitted and encouraged in the Koran and the Hadiths (Koran 3:28 and 16:106). With that in mind, let&#8217;s look at the background of the assailant on the Paris train.<\/p>\n<p>The article reports:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>El-Khazzani (the attacker) is \u201cdumbfounded\u201d that he is being accused of being a terrorist? Any sane person should be dumbfounded that he is dumbfounded. A bearded, caftan-wearing Muslim carries a <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"AK-47\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/AK-47\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">Kalashnikov<\/a>, an automatic pistol, ammunition and a box cutter onto a crowded train in a country where the <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Islamic state\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Islamic_state\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">Islamic State<\/a> has repeatedly called for lone wolf jihad attacks, opened fire with the Kalashnikov, and he is \u201cdumbfounded\u201d that anyone thinks he is a terrorist? How stupid does he think Western authorities are?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It gets even better. El-Khazzani claims that\u00a0he found the Kalashnikov and the pistol in a park in Brussels. He claims that he only wanted to rob the people on the train because he was hungry.<\/p>\n<p>The article reports the truth:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Here\u2019s the reality. The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/news\/world\/599981\/gunman-attack-train-amsterdam-paris-soldier\">Express<\/a> reported that \u201ca Spanish anti-terrorist official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, revealed El Khazzani had lived in Spain until last year, moved to <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"France\" href=\"http:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps?ll=48.8566666667,2.35083333333&amp;spn=10.0,10.0&amp;q=48.8566666667,2.35083333333 (France)&amp;t=h\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"geolocation\">France<\/a> then traveled to Syria where he is believed to have trained with ISIS before returning to France.\u201d\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.telegraph.co.uk\/news\/worldnews\/europe\/france\/11819297\/terrorists-father-speaks-for-the-first-time.html\">And a neighbor<\/a> recalled: \u201cHe and his brother were very devout; they dressed like Afghans and all that, but I can\u2019t believe this. He would sit with us while we smoked joints, you know? He didn\u2019t smoke, but he didn\u2019t mind that we did.\u201d It also turns out that el-Khazzani and his brothers were \u201cregulars\u201d at a local mosque.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Most robbers don&#8217;t carry Kalashnikovs,\u00a0automatic pistols and box cutters.
