Police secures the stabbing incident scene in the German town of Wuerzburg, Germany on June 25, 2021.

The 24-year-old Somali, who stabbed three women to death in Würzburg on June 25 and injured six others, some seriously, had kept material from the Islamic State (ISIS) in his home.

This was initially reported by German magazine Focus, but soon afterwards the information was put into a politically correct perspective: "Whether the hate messages found were ISIS material cannot yet be confirmed, and neither can a connection between the material and the crime."

Jibril A. announced shortly after his arrest that the act was "his jihad", that is, his personal contribution to the "holy war" against the infidels. The hopes of some political and media actors that the crime could be dismissed as a madman's rampage have however been crushed under the weight of these facts.

The Chancellor, Angela Merkel, reacted to the terrible bloodshed in Würzburg by keeping silent: No on-site visit, no expression of sympathy for the female victims, no compassion and not even a hypocritical show of support. Her refusal to take responsibility has been shameful and unworthy of a head of government.

The chairman of the AfD parliamentary group in the German Bundestag, Alexander Gauland, responded to the fatal knife attack in Würzburg by the rejected asylum seeker: "After the terrible knife attack in Würzburg, which shook us all, it is not enough to mourn the victims and then go back to business. We have to name those who are politically responsible for this act and finally draw the conclusions. To be very clear: these three people could still live without Merkel's irresponsible policy of open borders. Because the perpetrator came to Germany from Somalia in 2015, the year the border was opened.

"And even after that, politics failed: the victims would not have to be mourned by their families if the man whose asylum application was rejected had been deported immediately afterwards. This fact is particularly worrying given the steadily decreasing number of deportations. How many potential assassins are still in our country even though they should have been deported long ago?

"After this bloody act, the politically responsible in the federal and state governments are not allowed to fob off the citizens with generalities and appeasements. They must finally take responsibility for their policy of open borders and must not again downplay the act of Würzburg as an individual case."

Comment: RT reports that the migrant claimed to be motivated by his Islamist convictions:

"An Islamist background for the crimes is likely," the Munich Prosecutor's Office said in a joint statement with Bavarian police on Tuesday, describing Monday's rampage. The perpetrator shouted "Allahu Akbar" at least two times during the incident.

He was confronted by several brave civilians, disturbing footage from the scene shows, who tried to fend him off with chairs and other objects before the police arrived. Officers shot the man in the leg and took him into custody.

The attacker was not known to the authorities as an extremist, nor on any watch lists, German media reported earlier. Nonetheless, investigators reportedly recovered Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) propaganda materials from the homeless shelter where he lived.

This is notable because a number of these attackers are known to intelligence services: Austrian attacker was under surveillance as known jihadist but 'mistakes' led to investigation being dropped

He has reportedly shown no remorse for his actions, telling the police he had achieved his "jihad" goals. A senior security official, Joachim Herrmann, said the suspect had been admitted to a psychiatric unit suffering mental ill health a few days prior to the attack and subsequently released.
