Malaysian Police: Foiled IS Sympathizer’s Plot to Kill PM Mahathir Last Year
2021-03-27
[BenarNews] A senior Malaysian police official revealed on Thursday that his agency had foiled an ISIS sympathizer’s plot to kill then-Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad in January 2020.

Police discovered the plot when they arrested Wan Amirul Azlan bin Jalaluddin, the suspected leader of a group called Anshorullah At-Tauhid, on Jan. 6 last year, Azman Omar, the assistant director of counter-terrorism at Special Branch, said during a roundtable discussion in Kuala Lumpur on Islamic extremism.
”No shit, guys, there I was thinking I was picking the guy up for littering — like Alice’s Restaurant, donchaknow — and it turns out they were planning blood and guts and gore and veins in their teeth! Bog standard inshallah plotting, too. Thank Allah most of ‘em go in for faith instead of brains, or we’d be wading through rivers of blood.”
"During interrogation, Wan Amirul admitted that he intended to launch attacks against several government leaders by stabbing them with knives or sharp object as a sign of support for ISIS," Azman said, using another name for the terror group known as Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
