Canadian Terrorists Wanted to Kill Jewish Children
July 28, 2015Amanda Korody, a Canadian woman found guilty of taking part in a terrorist bomb plot, also wanted to infiltrate a synagogue and kill Jewish children, according to a report in the Western Canadian newspaper, the Times Colonist.
Both Korody and co-defendant, John Nuttall, her husband, are self-described Muslim converts.
Police notes presented in British Columbia (B.C.) Supreme Court on Monday described how Korody’s husband John Nuttall told an undercover officer that his wife believed she would be doing Jewish children a favor by sending them to paradise, since she believed “grown-up Jews” go to “eternal hell” when they die.
“I asked Nuttall how he thinks he will have access to Jewish kids and he said they were both white and could pass for Jewish,” according to the undercover officer’s notes, dated from March 2013.
“They will be regulars in the synagogue. They will gain the trust of everybody. And once they have everything they will get enough guns and ammo to go ahead with their mission.”
The Times Colonist added that Nuttall acknowledged that Jewish children were non-combatants but explained that their killing was justified since they would be raised to hate Arabs and Muslims. However, he eventually conceded that to the officer that “you never know, they may convert (to Islam) in their adulthood.”
Nuttall and Korody were found guilty of plotting to detonate homemade pressure-cooker bombs at the B.C. legislature during Canada Day celebrations in 2013.
Their lawyers argue that the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RMCP) entrapped them in an elaborate sting operation.
The court heard that Canada’s spy agency informed the RCMP in late 2012 that Nuttall was a possible threat. Police had already confronted him several times by then, once after his friend reported that Nuttall claimed to have shot a Jewish woman.
RCMP Cpl. Stephen Matheson told the court an officer interviewed John Nuttall, but he denied killing anyone.
Matheson told the court about Nuttall’s criminal history, listing offenses from kidnapping and robbery to aggravated assault. Nuttall had also been kicked out of various mosques, he added.
According to authorities, Nuttall and Korody both saw themselves as jihadist warriors behind enemy lines, waging holy war against the Western World for its treatment of Muslims.
