August 30, 2006 Omeed Aziz Popal Not Islamist Terrorist SUV rampage Omeed Aziz Popal, originally of Afghanistan, struck 18 pedestrians and killing one in the San Francisco Bay Area with his black Honda Pilot SUV on August 30, 2006.[1][2] Popal was 29 at the time of the attack. Despite identifying himself as a terrorist, police quickly ruled out any terrorist motive.  In 2008, a San Francisco judge ruled Popal not guilty by reason of insanity and committed him to a state psychiatric facility. According to the San Francisco Public Defender's Office, Popal was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and had a history of severe mental illness. He had been involuntarily committed for mental treatment twice within the six months before the attacks.[3] Debbie Schlussel noted it was the third attack on Americans by a muslim suspect so far that year after in March, Mohammed Reza Taheri-Azar, an Iranian Muslim–inspired by Allah and hatred for America–purposely drove his Jeep into students at the University of North Carolina and in December, Ali R. Warrayat, a Palestinian Jordanian Muslim, drove his car into a Home Depot in Arizona, inspired by his anger toward America and his Koran in his trunk.

  2. Jihad Watch  SF hit-and-run murderer identifies self as terrorist; police say it wasn’t terrorism AUGUST 29, 2006 9:44 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER Omeed Aziz Popal has, like Muhammad Reza Taheri-azar several months ago, driven his SUV into people, clearly trying intentionally to hurt or kill them. Like Taheri-azar, he seemed completely calm and at peace with himself after the incident.  After mowing down as many people as he could, Popal was boxed in by police and arrested. According to this video, he then identified himself as a terrorist (this bit comes right at the end of the report). Police, however, have already ruled out the possibility that these were acts of terrorism — again, as they did in the case of Taheri-azar.

Islamic Terrorism By Auto: 3rd Incident in a Year; “Living While Infidel”


By Debbie Schlussel
* AS READ ON AIR BY RUSH LIMBAUGH. THANKS, RUSH! *
**** SCROLL DOWN FOR UPDATES ****
When I first read about a San Francisco motorist who deliberately drove into lots of people and murdered at least one, critically injuring many others and ending in front of the Jewish Community Center (JCC), I wondered what the man’s name was. Was it a Muslim name?
Yes, it was: Omeed Aziz Popal, an Afghani Muslim. The BS reason given by his relativesfor his attempt at mass murder of non-Muslims: He was upset over the start of his stressful arranged Islamic marriage. “Religion of Peace” displaying yet more “Peace.” Hate of American Infidel victims had nothing to do with it, right? That’s why he drove far from his home in Fremont to the San Francisco JCC.
And, uh, wouldn’t the stress be on the Afghani bride shipped here to become his instant sex- and house-slave?
It’s not surprising that he turned out to be a Muslim, because Popal’s method isn’t new, in terms of Islamic terrorism in America.
In fact, it’s the third such incident of Islamic Terror by Auto in the last year. You’ve heard of “Driving While Black,” and the alleged “Flying While Arab”? Welcome to Living/Walking While Infidel (or trying to live, anyway).


Islamic Auto Terrorist Omeed Aziz Popal

In March, Mohammed Reza Taheri-Azar, an Iranian Muslim–inspired by Allah and hatred for America–purposely drove his Jeep into students at the University of North Carolina.
And in December, Ali R. Warrayat, a Palestinian Jordanian Muslim, drove his car into a Home Depot in Arizona, for the purpose of mass destruction of the store and those in it. He wanted to set the place ablaze. He, too, inspired by his anger toward America and his Koran in his trunk.
And then, there are the other incidents of Dr. Wameeth Fadhli, a Muslim medical doctor in Texas, who did a drive-by, “random” shooting of a bicyclist (tip from Sue Bob’s Diary). A Muslim in Baltimore, Mujtaba Rabbani Jabbar, shooting and murdering a Jewish guy at a movie theater. A Pakistani Muslim, Naveed Haq, in Seattle shooting women at the Jewish Federation, murdering one.
But these are all lone, random guys. And all of them just happen to be “mentally unstable” Muslims who deliberately target non-Muslims. Right, Neil Cavuto? The latest one ended, by “coincidence,” at the Jewish Community Center of San Francisco, where he mowed over two people–7 are now critically injured, one dead. But it and the Seattle incident and the Baltimore incident (and the bombing of the Hebrew University of Baltimore before that) have nothing to do with Islamic anti-Semitism.
Right, Neil Cavuto? Just asking.
**** UPDATEKTVU-San Francisco video reports that Omeed Aziz Popal declared himself “a terrorist.” But police say he isn’t. Whatever. Thanks to reader Jeff for the tip.
**** UPDATE #2: Reader Kenneth H. writes:
I know my way around SF very well. The SF
Bay Area news channels and politicians are
being intentionally vague about where/why
the Driver attacked.
A few stations reported that he struck in “Laurel
Heights”. What they are *not* reporting was
why he chose that location. He drove along
the front sidewalk of a new, prominent JCC.
One station rolled video of the crime scene.
The camera showed bicycle wreckage with
a brick wall in the background. The wall was
cut off at the top of the frame – slightly higher
than the mangled handle bars. Actually, the
wall rises two stories. It’s the front of the JCC!
A few stations reported that he also struck
at “California & Fillmore”, a yuppie area.
Unfortunately, none are reporting the precise
spot where he jumped the curb. Two doors before
that intersection, on the same side of Street
the criminal was driving on, is the front of a
rather large, ornate Refom Synagogue (Cong
Sheerith Israel).
The Mayor of SF is saying that the path of
destruction was “random. The reporters are
telling me that the Driver was mentally unstable
(they used the same spin to excuse the Muslim
fellow who shot up the Seattle JCC a fews ago).
I am so sick of obfuscation.
Back in the old country the criminals are not called
deranged. They are called martyrs.
AMEN to that last statement.
**** UPDATE #3: Reader Kenneth H. writes again to correct some of the above:
in a previous e-mail i wrote that Cong Sheerith Israel was
only 2 doors away from the intersection of California & Fillmore.
actually, the Synagogue is a BLOCK from the intersection.
according to yahoo! maps, the block distance is 0.10 miles.
i *believe* that the Synagogue is currently closed due to
seismic concerns. next door to the sanctuary (on California St.)
is the Cong’s social-hall/classroom building. i do not know if
that building was “Open for Biz” yesterday.

SUV terrorist Omeed Aziz Popal may plead insanity "wanted to kill policeman but couldn't find any"

August 31, 2006
MIM: If he was after a police officer it was 'targetted Jihad' - but once he got the urge apparently he just couldnt stop himself and just settled on whoever caught his eye. And since he dreamed of devils- its clear who made him do it. ( Those arranged marriages in Afghanistan to women who look better in burqas can put a bee in anyone's turban it seems.) Who doesnt get the occasional urge to start mowing people down in SUV's or Jeep Cherokees once in a while? Could have been jetlag from the trip to Afghanistan, or fear his bride would discover he suffered from ED. Will Sudden Jihad Syndrome make the Merck Manual on mental disorders together with Post Islamist Stress Disorder otherwise known as PISD?
Sudden Jihad Syndrome SJS is disorder which strikes mostly Muslim men between the ages of 14 to 40 who wake up one day with an uncontrollable urge to kill and maim as many non Muslims as possible before either being killed or getting stopped. Warning signs are growing a beard, putting on robes, going to mosque and reading the Koran. There is no known cure for SJS except to convert out of Islam to another religion.
MIM: According to press reports Popal told authorities that he had been thinking about killing someone for a day before he allegedly set off in his Honda Pilot, ran over and killed a 54-year-old man in Fremont and drove to San Francisco, where as many as 19 people were struck in about a dozen locations. Members of Popal's family have said he suffered from psychological problems recently and had been hospitalized at least twice. http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2006/08/31/MNG1MKST984.DTL

A San Francisco Superior Court judge today postponed until next week the arraignment of Omeed Aziz Popal on 18 felony counts of attempted murder, saying she was waiting for a psychiatric evaluation report on the Fremont resident. Popal is accused of intentionally mowing down at least 14 pedestrians in San Francisco on Tuesday. He is also a suspect in the hit-and-run death of a man in Fremont earlier that day. During a brief discussion about bail, which Judge Donna Little denied, Deputy District Attorney James Thompson said that Popal's statements indicate that he would be a danger if allowed out of custody. "He said he wanted to kill a police officer but couldn't find any," Thompson said. He said that Popal's statements indicated he intended to "kill someone since the day before." Seven victims hit by the Honda Pilot Popal was allegedly driving suffered "great bodily harm, three were 70 or older and one appears to be paralyzed," the prosecutor said. In addition to the attempted murder counts, Popal faces 18 counts of assault with a deadly weapon, a felony count of battery on a peace officer causing injury and a felony count of reckless evasion from police. If convicted on all charges, Popal could face life in prison. Public defender Jeff Adachi, who is representing Popal, said his client is undergoing psychiatric evaluation. "His state of mind will be a major issue in this case," Adachi said. Responding to a question of whether Popal might plead insanity, Adachi said, "All we know is that there appears to be some very serious mental problems." Among those in court today were Popal's brother, his mother, Zakia, and his father, Najib. During the proceedings, Adachi consulted with Najib Popal, who occasionally wiped tears from his eyes. Some of the people accompanying the parents as they exited the courtroom tried to shield their faces from cameras. At one point, Najib Popal put his arm around his wife, who had tears in her eyes. The family declined to comment outside the courtroom. Adachi told reporters "they are still in a state of shock. This is a man who has no history of violence. He's never been in trouble before." He said the family expresses sympathy for all the victims. "It is a horrible tragedy what occurred." Of the seven patients rushed to San Francisco General Hospital Tuesday, three had been discharged by Thursday morning, said Anson Moon, a hospital spokesman. Of the remaining four, one is in the intensive care unit. The conditions of the others "are anywher

Omeed Aziz Popal SUV rampage

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Omeed Aziz Popal, originally of Afghanistan, struck 18 pedestrians and killing one in the San Francisco Bay Area with his black Honda Pilot SUV on August 30, 2006.[1][2] Popal was 29 at the time of the attack. In 2008, a San Francisco judge ruled Popal not guilty by reason of insanity and committed him to a state psychiatric facility. According to the San Francisco Public Defender's Office, Popal was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and had a history of severe mental illness. He had been involuntarily committed for mental treatment twice within the six months before the attacks.[3]

Attack and the victims[edit]

The first person to be attacked, Stephen J. Wilson, 54, was struck in Fremont, California, and died at 11:50 am. Another victim was hospitalized in critical condition.
Popal struck two men at the intersection of Sutter and Steiner Streets in San Francisco. He passed through the intersection again in an attempt to hit the men a second time—and then a third time—before moving on.
A witness said he saw one victim's body "thrown 25 feet." Multiple witnesses and victims said that the driver appeared to be aiming for people, intentionally hitting them.
Other victims included Vera Jenkins, 40; Pedro Aglugov, 70; Leon Stevens, 56; and Susan Rajic, 43.[4][5] One police officer was slightly injured when Popal was apprehended.

Reactions[edit]

California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger called Popal's actions "malicious and hateful". He commended authorities and offered his condolences to the victims and their families. He further said that "acts of hate such as this will not be tolerated in California".[6]
In a column read on air by Rush LimbaughDebbie Schlussel did not believe his family's explanation that he was upset over a stressful arranged muslim marriage and declared it was the third incident of "islamic terrorism by auto" that year.[7] She compared it to the Mohammed Reza Taheri-azar SUV attack, and Ali R. Warrayat, a Palestinian Jordanian Muslim who drove his car into a Home Depot in Arizona.
