Manchester Attacker’s Father Praised October 7th Hamas Terrorists
The father of the Manchester synagogue attacker praised the October 7th Hamas terrorists as “Allah’s men on earth”. The Telegraph has the story.
Faraj Al-Shamie posted on Facebook his own support for the invasion of Israel in which 1,200 people were killed and about 250 civilians and soldiers taken hostage.
Mr Al-Shamie, a trauma surgeon who lived in council housing in Britain, said in his post on the day of the attack that the Hamas terrorists who had infiltrated the Jewish state on motorbikes and paragliders had “proved beyond a shadow of a doubt” that Israel would be destroyed eventually.
The posts were uncovered by the Telegraph hours after Mr Al-Shamie had issued a statement in which he expressed his “profound shock” in the wake of the killing of two Jewish congregants at Heaton Park synagogue in north Manchester.
Mr Al-Shamie’s eldest son, Jihad Al-Shamie, 35, rammed his car into worshippers entering the synagogue on Thursday for Yom Kippur, Judaism’s holiest day, before stabbing congregants. Jihad Al-Shamie was then shot dead by armed police.
Counter-terror police and security services are working on the theory that the attack on the synagogue was motivated by Israel’s war on Hamas in Gaza, in which thousands of Palestinians have also died.
Faraj Al-Shamie, the killer’s father, arrived in the UK from Syria in the 1990s, settling in the Crumpsall area of north Manchester, which is home to a large Jewish population.
He had qualified as a doctor in Syria and completed further studies in the UK, before becoming a trauma surgeon. He is thought to be currently overseas, working as a doctor.
Perhaps there was a reason he named his son ‘Jihad’.
Worth reading in full.
Stop Press: Humza Yousaf, the former First Minister of Scotland, has tweeted that the Manchester attack had “nothing to do with Islam”. Er, right.

Diversity here is Islam’s strength
Who thinks Faraj should go and fight the invader alongside his brothers?
His trauma skills should come in handy!
The original version of the Telegraph article was headlined “Father of terrorist condemns heinous act” (or words to that effect).
A commenter then provided a link to the Facebook page and another commenter encouraged the Telegraph to update the story. That’s mainstream media for you.
Art, you’ve had quite the hiatus. You were conspicuous by your absence. 👀 I was getting concerned. Anyway, nice to see you back and rejoining the fold.😊
Thank you, Mogs, much appreciated.
The hatreds for Kāfir are passed on from generation to generation by the Vastmajorityofpeacefulmuslims™️.
These murder supporters too are wonderful people – the most wonderful people ever to have trod the Earth. Like the murderers themselves they are full of wonderfully wonderful wonderfulness. And I thank our rulers for forcing the murderers on us. This does of course mean that the people who bear ultimate responsibility for the wonderful people’s murders in this country are our rulers – the decadent, degenerate, deranged British Establishment. Thanks again!
The enablers of the invasion, our own government, will not keep them out. In fact they welcome them. This is partly because they vote for the Anti-White Party, and partly because they are here to terrorise and, if necessary, murder us.

So Humza Useless quotes a line to the effect that to kill an innocent person is to kill all humanity.
I’m confused.
Does that refer to killing anyone, or just another (innocent) Muslim? I daresay there are shades of meaning to all religious texts but this seems particularly schizophrenic given Islam’s seeming aversion to Jews and the state of Israel.
Whatever weasel words emanate from this dangerous racist fool, it is no more than we have come to expect; how much more do I deplore the right-on white British PA idiots who support the enemy within.
It’s a quotation from the Quran, which Muslims see as putting their religion as “peaceful”. They are somewhat less comfortable with public airing of:
‘ Allah’s Messenger said, “The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. “O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him.” ‘
Muslims are also reticent to admit that their Quran testifies that Allah is the greatest deceiver.
The NHS needs all the trauma surgeons it can get. Unless, of course, they misgender other staff.
The Critis (an excellent magazine) writes today “:Around 75 per cent of British counter-terrorism work involves averting Islamist extremism (with the other 25 per cent being devoted to far right extremists).”
But is that true. There must be many sorts of terrorist out there who are not Islamist and not “right wing”. The Irish must surely still be monitored and the multitude of races and ethnic groups in the UK who hate each other. I simply do not believe there are one third as many “right wingers” as Islamists – there are hardly any, thank goodness, and even fewer who would be terrorists
I do not think the security services should ignore any threat, terrorist or otherwise. Are they monitoring the EU and agents of its bigger member states, for instance as they definitely do not wish us well.
They might, of course, be monitoring people who have tweeted Far-Right views like limiting illegal migration. And then there are those who get arrested under the Terrorism Act in order to harass them and confiscate their data.
Trauma surgeon? This gentile, for one, certainly wouldn’t be easy about finding myself under his care. How a Jew would feel I can scarcely imagine.
Google tells me Jihad can have many meanings – as well as ‘Holy War’ it can be ‘My Struggle’
Having named his son “My Struggle” is rather telling, I agree…
I expect it was a difficult birth and his Mum had some influence over the Naming LOL
Has he been arrested?
The rotten apple doesn’t fall far from the poisonous tree. I’d be wanting to bring in all the relatives for questioning. A bit like the Southport mass child-killer, no way did family not know what he was planning. There’s always a lot of complicity involved with these sorts of people, much like the Pakistani rape gangs, but it’s probably a challenge finding evidence to prove family and close friends knew.
Humza Yusuf seems to be using the ‘no true Scotsman’ argument. Surely if the killer self-identified as a Muslim and did the deed for what they believed were religious reasons, it is an Islamic attack?
(and I believe Humza is a big fan of self-identification)
Faraj? Hmm…that name rings a bell.
Nige al-Faraj?
Jihad Al-Shamie had been arrested for rape and was on police bail when he carried out the killings in Manchester, a police source tells BBC News.
“Jihad Al-Shamie, 35, was arrested on suspicion of rape. He was currently on bail at the time of yesterday’s attack. He was not charged with the rape,”
Humza Yousef is a stochastic terrorist. Deport.
“Counter-terror police and security services are working on the theory that the attack on the synagogue was motivated by Israel’s war on Hamas in Gaza, in which thousands of Palestinians have also died.”
Or, he is Muslim, which seems to be motivation enough.
Well colour me surprised.
Not.
His father should be stripped of his citizenship, yet again influencing their children to murder innocents, absolute filth
Err right indeed. But the press are pushing the “suicidal lone wolf” narrative, no doubt at the government’s behest. Yet if true it changes nothing: Islam teaches that suicide is the worst of sins that guarantees eternal hell, but it also teaches that those who die as martyrs for Islam against the kaffirs are guaranteed paradise. Witness his father’s posts after October 7th.
That explains why a non-Muslim with domestic problems might, sadly, kill himself, but a Muslim in the same situation might rationally decide to guarantee his own eternal happiness by taking out as many Jews as possible.
Hence even “lone-wolf” atrocities are the result of Islamist ideology, and it is still the ideology that needs to be fought.
But if the press push the suicide line hard enough then wouldn’t that remove the martyrdom direction as you’ve stated in your post?
Allah doesn’t base his judgements on the MSM, but on the Qur’an.
this is what happens when we import thousands of people from countries where children are feed hatred of the Jews with their mother’s milk
Al-Shamie said that the family should be left in peace – I hope Mossad did not get that memo.
