Episode 4155: TERRORISTS WAGE JIHAD ON PRIDE MONTH!

Terrorists targeted celebrations of Pride Month -threatening participants in Turkey and Ramallah until they cancelled them, and perpetrating a mass shooting in Norway! Why? You might ask. Well, the history goes back to Muhammad and his recommended punishment for homosexual activity. Chanting “Allahu Akbar” and showing frightening videos, they intimidated students at Istanbul University into cancelling their LGBT+ picnic. In Ramallah, the son of a prominent preacher from the terror group Hamas, posted a video on social media warning people arriving at a concert hall, that the star singer-songwriter about to perform is banned because he’s gay. In Oslo, Norway, just hours before the Pride Parade was about to begin, Zaniar Matapour, a 42-year-old Iranian refugee, who’d come to Norway at age 12, began a shooting rampage. He targeted three gay sites, notably the London Pub. He shouted “Allahu Akbar” as he started shooting and left a trail of 2 dead and over 21 injured. Matapour is a fascinating guy. You will hear his life story, which includes mental illness, and many run ins with the law, for which he was hardly punished. Most interesting, are his connections to terrorists and ISIS. Not unlike many other lone wolves, Matapour had been on Norway’s counterterrorism radar until they let them fall through the cracks. Now the authorities are investigating to see what they missed, trying to determine whether this was: a terror attack, a hate crime, a result of his mental illness, or all of the above. Indeed, having much similarity to Omar Mateen’s attack on the Pulse Nightclub, it may have been a copycat crime!
