Investigators in Bavaria have arrested a 27-year-old Syrian Muslim accused of plotting a jihad attack on German soldiers in Hof. The man planned to ambush the soldiers during their lunch break in the city center, intending to kill as many as possible using two machetes as weapons. The Munich public prosecutor’s office, which has taken charge of the case, confirmed that the man follows what they misleadingly describe as a “radical Islamic ideology.” In reality, the religious Islamic jihadi was motivated by his religious beliefs to instill fear and gain power through violence. The essence of terrorism.

A few days before his arrest, the suspect purchased two 40-centimeter machetes, preparing for the deadly assault. The Bavarian Central Office for Combating Extremism and Terrorism stated that the suspect adheres to “extremist” Islamic beliefs. It is crucial for Westerners to understand that these so-called extremists are not outliers—they are devout followers of their religion. His attack aimed to send a clear message of intimidation, creating widespread insecurity.

The suspect was arrested on Thursday in the Hof region, and an investigating judge issued an arrest warrant the following morning. He is now in custody, and no other suspects have been identified. The investigation continues under the Bavarian Central Office for Combating Extremism and Terrorism in coordination with the Munich Public Prosecutor’s Office.

This incident illustrates the ongoing danger posed by individuals from Islamic countries who adhere to religious views fundamentally at odds with Western values. Many of these individuals have no intention of assimilating and instead harbor hostile ideologies toward non-Muslims. Yet, despite these clear and present dangers, Western nations continue to allow people from such regions into their countries, ignoring the risks.

The reality that law enforcement often fails to grasp—or dares not acknowledge—is that these individuals are not mere extremists. They are faithful adherents of Islam, following the teachings that inspire violence in the name of religion. Many police officers, and even high-ranking officials, remain uninformed or too afraid of being labeled Islamophobic to admit this truth. The state’s misguided fear of intolerance accusations keeps the public in the dark, allowing these threats to grow unchecked.

The fact is that these so-called extremists are following Islamic teachings precisely as written, practiced and intended. Time and again, Islamic terrorists openly declare that their actions are for Allah and in furtherance of Islam. This is not a matter of a peaceful religion being hijacked by radicals—this violence is a direct manifestation of Islamic doctrine. And yet, most law enforcement agencies avoid acknowledging this reality, preferring to use the sanitized term “extremism” instead of revealing the religious motivations. This plays into the hands of Jihadists and results in victim blaming as we try and invent a motive we understand, such as Western-caused actions in the Middle East.

So long as we refuse to confront the true motive, we cannot hope to defend ourselves individually or as a society.

We must ask ourselves: Why are we allowing individuals who follow Islamic teachings that promote violence against non-Muslims into our countries? Why are we risking the safety of our citizens with policies that enable this kind of threat to enter our borders? This case serves as a critical reminder that we need to rethink immigration policies, particularly from Islamic nations that have a track record of producing terrorists. The safety and security of our citizens must always come first.

The public deserves to know the real nature of this threat.
