We're at a rate of 3 islamic terrorist attacks per week in our Western world:

In one week: San Bernardino, then the London tube knifing, then a few hours ago (according to data just coming in), a Jordanian traveling on a US passport tried to open the door of a Lufthansa plane

He got unlucky though: the plane was full of professional Serbian volleyball sportsmen, who manhandled him, contained him, and prevented the accident.

But I mean... 3 terrorist attacks per week, is it the future of our open-borders Western World?

Anyway, MSM media in Western Europe cannot treat it as a workplace violence event, so, they are calling it, a... something... They say, "some unidentified passenger tried to do something to the plane door". "Something happened" sounds better than, another terrorist (foiled) attack, yes

We'd need to ask our Serbian forum members to translate from Serbian media, who are the only ones to give details at this point...

Word of caution: at this stage, no definite clear data exist on this event, in English. But it does seem like yet another attempt at terrorism!

According to Serbian press, below is the picture of this crazy would-be terrorist, whom MSM are now trying to paint as a "deranged individual":

"We're at a rate of 3 islamic terrorist attacks per week in our Western world..."

That might be so, but it matters little. You know why? Because they're the "JV team."

Does anyone else think the president's comment about that is going to go down in history as a major misstep on the level of Carter's infamous "malaise" speech or Bush I's "no new taxes" lie that came back to haunt him?

First German media reports coming in. Predictably, they are downplaying the incident and report the perpetrator as 'mentally unstable".

And actually they are right (not that it matters). Obviously, terrorists are not well in their heads, and are, to say the least, mentally unstable... it doesn't change anything to them being terrorists (or would-be terrorists), and doesn't diminish their responsibility.

Of course, MSM narrative is that of a "troubled, unstable passenger who was not feeling well"

Thing is, if this "troubled passenger" had succeeded in opening the cockpit door he was "banging on", what do you think would have happened?

Air Rage yes, that's it... and... triggered by the racist funny looks the other passengers were giving him. They are the real culprits here.

According to the very serious and centrist French media, Ouest-France, this guy shouted that he wanted to "join Allah with all the other passengers":

"Le porte-parole de Lufthansa a refusé de commenter les informations de la RTS selon lesquelles le passager était un Jordanien également porteur d'un passeport américain.

D'après la presse serbe en ligne, l'homme aurait crié avoir perdu la raison et vouloir rejoindre Allah avec tous les passagers, avant d'être maîtrisé par des membres de l'équipage épaulés par des joueurs du club de handball serbe de Vojvodina Novi Sad. Lufthansa n'a pas confirmé ces informations."

But sure, it's not terrorist-related ... I mean, a man shouts, "let's all go meet Allah" and then tries to open a plane's lateral door, but, it's not attempted terrorism. It's air rage.

On the upside, you can't open the emergency door on an airplane in midflight.

Yeah, I'm sure that there's no competent terrorist organisation that would send an operative to merely open a plane in mid flight. Of course he wasn't affiliated with ISIS.

This was just a lone crazy Muslim who thought he could do some damage. Just like the stabber in London. Just like all the other incidences we will see in the coming days and months and years.

This criminal-terrorist?-nutcase saw Tom Cruise do it on screen, more than once. Even Charlie's angels do it all the time: he thought, hey why not me, equality and all?

So I guess ultimately we should blame Western society, and Mission Impossible 2...

On a serious note now: The world is currently full of people so fucked up that you can't determine whether they are terrorists, professional criminals, or plain raving mad. Or any combination or the above.
