There's nothing to be surprised at the Berlin attack.

Sky News proudly posted a clip of their journalist in Berlin, which tries to explain the last car attack, this time using the target was a gay pride parade activity in Berlin.

A lot of people were shocked by what happened", she said.

They couldn't believe it because it's such a peaceful and joyous event. I mean, it happens every year... So the fact that people ended their celebration so suddenly is simply too surprising. "

The rest of us were not surprised at all that the prime suspect is a 'known Islamist' called 'Abdul B'. Perhaps he learned from Abdul A and hopes to inspire Abdul C, D and E to Z.

Islamic terrorism has long used means to kill and maim people they do not believe deserve to live. And they have long hated homosexuality and freedom of speech. While we in the West, in general, appreciate the acceptance of homosexuality, sexual liberation, freedom, celebration, entertainment and holidays. We value life.

Islamists also hate Jews, Israel, America, Britain, Western values, equality of women, music, dogs, unbelievers in Islam, alcoholic beverages, and a host of other things, mostly excellent. Just because a gay parade is "so joyous" -- it is a potential target for Islamist terrorists.

Some of us have been trying to warn about it for a few years now. We are viewed as "racists," even though Islamist terrorists come from a variety of different ethnic backgrounds. We are stained as 'discreet', even though we are mostly very inclusive people who are united with other lovers of freedom in our opposition to those who seek to divide (and kill) unbelievers in Islam. They sometimes call us "alarmers," even though we have many frequent examples to rely on the warnings we have made.

There has indeed been more than enough warning. On July 14, 2016, an attacker inspired by the Islamic State led a truck in the crowds of Bastija Day in Nice, killing 86 people. Five months later, a terrorist linked to the Islamic State led a truck to the Berlin Christmas market, killing 12 people. In 2017 came the Westminster Bridge, Stockholm, London Bridge, and Barcelona, each using a car, van, or truck to hit the pedestrians before in some cases, the knife attack continued.

The same method has appeared repeatedly in Israel, where Palestinian attackers have led soldiers, travelers and civilians to bus stations, intersections and checkpoints, including the January 2017 truck attack in Jerusalem and the Glilot attack near Tel Aviv in October 2024. On January 1st, 2025, an inspired attacker by the Islamic State led a truck into crowds on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, killing 14 people. Jihad al-Shamie launched his attack on the Heaton Park synagogue in 2025, hitting the guard in his car.

True, others have used vehicles as weapons: Darren Osborn deliberately targeted Muslim believers who were leaving the shrines near Finsbury Park in 2017, and 20-year-old Nathan Veltman deliberately led his truck to a Muslim family in London, Ontario, in 2021, killing four of them. But, as with Pakistani Muslim gangs of child rape, the existence of other perpetrators with similar crimes cannot deny the need for us to speak sincerely of the Islamist threat and its favorite techniques.

Automobile shocks as a deliberate terrorist tactic, using a machine, truck, or regular bodozer to hit pedestrians, soldiers, or mobs with intent to murder and terrorisation, developed and advanced mainly through Palestinian attacks on Israel. It is one of the most successful international exports of Palestinians, along with the hijacking of airlines and suicide bombings. The earliest well - documented case of this specific approach occurred on February 18, 1987, when a Palestinian driver deliberately crashed a car into a group of Israelite soldiers near Nablus. A soldier later died from his wounds. Other cases back then followed in 1989 and the 1990s.

Of course, Palestinians did not invent the basic idea of a vehicle as a weapon, but they were the first to turn the intentional shock of people into a recurring and low-tech terrorist approach, which proved difficult to prevent and relatively effective under the limitations they faced. Al-Qaeda, through its English-language magazine Inspirea in 2010, and later the Islamic State, would publicly promote the shock of vehicles as a light and low method for lonely actors in the West, no doubt inspired by the <x0wfta"Palestinian.

With all these jihadist techniques, they may not have invented them, but Palestinian terrorists adopted them, refined them, and escalated them massively to imitate internationally (by globalising intifada).

Although an Islamist attack on a parade of pride is not surprising at all, it was not surprising to see that on the same day of the attack on pride in Berlin, a transgjinor activist wearing a PLO flag uniform led the calls"Free Palestina"at the Trans Pride event in London. Nothing better sums up the miop march of our society into oblivion than the spectacle of a street parade of people who cannot distinguish a man from a woman by joyfully singing songs in support of a movement guided and inspired mainly by Islamist terrorists and their sympathies, while innocent people in Germany are being killed because they celebrate homosexual equality.

Every time I write one of these articles that lists previous terrorist Islamist attacks, clearly showing the models and threats that society needs to wake up to, I wonder how many more I'll have to write before it stops being controversant to mention <x0 phelphant in room". It's kind of a weird hobby to keep a list of these things, but no matter how sad you make me, I won't stop.

Maybe this time it'll be different. Perhaps the victims will not have died or been wounded in vain. Perhaps Europe will wake up and start to act to counter this very real threat. In a way, I doubt it. Those who kill us for our beliefs and values, and their confused supporters who go out on the streets to cheer in defense of our killers will continue to march on our path, slandering our pride and ignoring us for our love of freedom and life. In a way, though, we are the crazy ones who reveal all of this.
