Jihad poisoning plots are not new. Al-Qaeda has long considered the contamination of food as a jihad mass murder tactic. And in 2017, the Islamic State called on Muslims to poison food in Western supermarkets
And it has happened at least twice in Britain:
UK: Shop-owners sold chocolate cake sprinkled with human feces
UK: Muslim who sprayed food with feces and urine can’t be deported

In India in July 2019, Muslims plotted to poison food offered in a Hindu temple that was to be consumed by at least 40,000 devotees. In February 2025 in Tajikstan, Islamic State jihadis plotted to poison food served to attendees at a Nowruz festival.
We also know that jihadis have long wanted to poison the water supply. As far back as 2002, the feds arrested two jihadis who were carrying plans about how to poison water supplies. In 2003, al-Qaeda threatened to poison water supplies in Western countries. In 2011, a jihadi in Spain likewise planned to poison water supplies.
And in May 2013, seven Muslim “chemical engineers” were caught trespassing at the Quabbin Reservoir, a key supply of water for Boston, after midnight. Only months later and indirectly did we hear that it was a “criminal matter.” A month later, locks were cut at the aqueduct that supplies water to Greater Boston.
Also in May 2013, jihadists were caught in Canada who had considered poisoning air and water to murder up to 100,000 people. In October 2013, the FBI was investigating a possible water supply threat in Wichita. In January 2014, a Muslim broke into a water treatment plant in New Jersey.
“Algerian nanny stands trial accused of poisoning Jewish family in Paris,” by Thomas Brooke, Remix News, December 8, 2025:
An Algerian woman under an order to leave French territory is standing trial in Nanterre for allegedly poisoning the food of a Jewish family who had employed her as a live-in nanny.
The case, described by investigators as without precedent in France, involves a couple and their three young children aged two, five, and seven.
As reported by Le Parisien, Leïla Y., 42, appeared before the Nanterre Criminal Court on Tuesday, accused of “administering a harmful substance resulting in incapacity exceeding eight days, committed on the grounds of race, ethnicity, nationality or religion.” Prosecutors say she used falsified documents, including a fake Belgian identity card, to obtain the job two months before the alleged events.
The investigation began after the mother of the family reported a series of alarming incidents in late January 2024. Dishes and drinks had unusual smells or tasted of cleaning products, and makeup remover had burned her eyes.
Suspecting foul play, the family reported the Algerian national to the police. Further allegations were made when the family’s 5-year-old told the authorities she had witnessed the nanny pouring a substance into a bottle of alcohol labelled “Jerusalem.”
Toxicology tests confirmed their suspicions, revealing significant traces of polyethylene glycol and other chemical agents in multiple food and drink items. The substances used were “harmful, even corrosive, and can cause serious injuries to the digestive tract,” according to the committal order.
In February, the nanny admitted in a police interview to adding a “soap-based lotion” to the family’s food and drink, describing it as a “punishment” following disputes over her pay. “I was angry; they were disrespecting me,” she added.
However, she also made remarks that suggested an anti-Semitic motive, saying she acted “because they have money and power, I should never have worked for a Jewish woman; she only brought me trouble.”…
