Mouner El Aoual should be taken immediately to Pope Francis, who would explain to him that true Islam and the proper understanding of the Qur’an reject every form of violence. How fortunate we are to have imams such as Francis to explain it all for us. Now if they could only convince the Mouner El Aouals of the world.

“ISIS sympathizer who threatened to ‘roast non-believers on skewers’ arrested in Italy,” RT, April 25, 2017 (thanks to the Geller Report):

El Aoual, who has lived illegally in Italy since 2008, also shared images of IS on Facebook, and praised recent terrorist attacks across Europe.

He also promoted Islamist extremism online, calling for “non-believers” to be “roasted on kebab skewers” and fed to dogs, according to a police report.

The 29-year-old reportedly shared material about various combat techniques and how to throw investigators off track, as well as behaviors which could make a person “invisible” while living in a Western country.

A judge for preliminary investigations called El Aoual an “extremely dangerous subject” who posed a “very high risk of moving on to carrying out serious acts of violence.”
