The knife jihad comes to America — like the knife attacks on Jews in Israel, and on hundreds of Chinese commuters by Chinese Muslims (Uighurs), secular bloggers and writers in Bangladesh, and yesterday’s knife attack on tourists in Morocco. It is a new wave of Islamic terror, following Muhammad’s example of spreading Islam by the sword.
What’s Obama going to do — call for “knife control”? Import millions more of these devout savages?
The jihadi, dressed in all black, of course, was shot and killed by campus police after stabbing several victims. He was identified Thursday as Faisal Mohammad of Santa Clara, California, a freshman majoring in computer science and engineering.
Two victims had to be airlifted to nearby hospitals, and two others were treated on campus.

- Student from Santa Clara, 18, went on the rampage at UC Merced
- The attack happened shortly before 8am PT at the Sacramento campus
- He shot dead by police before 9.30am, officials confirmed
Four people stabbed were two students, a staff member and a vendor- Campus officials had earlier reported that five students had been stabbed
- His roommate said he was anti-social and didn’t talk to anyone
A student who stabbed four people inside a classroom at the University of California, Merced, before he was killed by police has been identified.
Faisal Mohammad, a freshman from Santa Clara who majored in computer science and engineering, was shot dead by officers after his violent rampage on Wednesday morning.
The FBI are now trying to figure out the motives of the 18-year-old, who was living in an on-campus dorm, the Merced Sun Star reported.
Price, 31, said the suspect lunged at him when he entered the classroom after hearing sounds of a fight. He received nine staples after being stabbed in his left side (pictured right)
Andrew Velasquez, his roommate, told ABC30 Mohammad was anti-social and was always alone on campus.
‘Didn’t talk much. And I never saw him walk with anybody. Walking to class, I never saw him walk with anybody.
‘Every time I would try and say something he would just ignore it.’
Police cancelled classes on Thursday so they could continue their investigation.
During a news conference on Wednesday afternoon, Sheriff-Coroner Vern Warnke said that the weapon used in the stabbings was a hunting knife between 8 and 10 inches long.
The university said that two students, one staff member and a vendor were wounded but were expected to recover. Two of the victims were airlifted to specific hospitals for treatment.
And one of the victims – Byron Price – has been hailed a hero for his actions.
Warnke said the building contractor’s entrance into the classroom likely prevented the death of the first victim who was attacked.
Price, 31, said when he went to investigate what he believed was a fist fight, the suspect lunged at him, stabbing his left side.
‘He had a smile on his face, he was having fun – which is more what bothers me,’ he told CBSFresno.

‘I just kind of kicked at him,’ Price added. ‘It was a really big knife and he was swinging it down so I figured if I was on the ground and my feet were at him, he could get my legs and not my body. And it turned out, it worked.’
The father-of-four said after he was wounded, he saw the attacker go on to stab others.
And he also revealed that he actually drove himself to hospital after being stabbed and received nine staples. He is now home with his children and fiancée.
Sheriff Warnke said the contractor had rushed into a classroom and intervened as one male student was stabbing another.
Warnke says the contractor himself was wounded, but that his actions probably prevented the student being attacked from being injured more seriously.
He says the alleged assailant then fled down two flights of stairs and outside, where he stabbed a female student and a female staff member.
The suspect was then shot and killed by police about 35 or 40 yards away from the classroom.
Campus Police Chief Albert Vasquez says the attack started inside a classroom and that more victims were wounded as the armed suspect fled.
Vasquez says two campus police officers saw the suspect outside and shot him as he turned toward them.
