France Jails 25 Militants Accused of Jihad Links With Chechen Rebels

French Jihad Update from MosNews, with thanks to the Constantinopolitan Irredentist:

A French court has jailed 25 alleged Islamic militants for planning attacks in France in support of Chechen rebels, the BBC reported Wednesday....

Prosecutors said the group’s intended targets included the Eiffel Tower, the Halles shopping centre, police stations and places of Israeli interest.

The group was accused of “jihad” links with Chechen militants fighting Russia. Some sources reported they had received training in Russia’s restive southern province.

But of course they are innocent and Islam forbids violence , plus they are being tortured while in jail, Right?

I object to the use of the word "Islamic". Also "jihad" is a no no. Also the word "Chechen" because it may make some people think of the word "Islamic" (of which I have previously objected) which will make some people think of the word "jihad". I also object to the word "militants" which also may make some people think of the word "Islamic".

France, please contact Canada on how best to describe this non-event.

That's a bizarre photo accompanying the story. At first I thought it was a piece of luggage. Then I thought it was a burkha (but with a zipper?). It appears to be someone holding up an arm to shield their face but the person appears to have a black sack over their head so why are they holding up their arm? Weird.

How does one support Chechan rebels by blowing up things in France? What does France have to do with Chechnya? Why didn't they go blow up things in Russia? This makes even less sense than the usual nonsense, if that's possible.

Caroline,
Anything that is infidel, shall be attacked for the sake of jihad being waged somewhere else. After all, it is all jihad. And we are all infidels.

CAIR-Canada has dumped Sheema Khan and now has started telling fewer lies to the media.
Below is a posting on their Website and it confirms what I said over a year ago that the Islamophobia survey was a hoax and CAIR's website is used to compile anicdotal claims of Racism and anti-Muslim attacks.
While CAIR tried to claim they spoke for 700,000 Muslims in Canada,I now see their email
list for regular visitor is declared as 7,000
and that isn't broken down for multiple user addresses and how many are Muslim individuals.
***********************************************

One broader-based emerging group is the Canadian Council for American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-CAN). Founded five years ago, the group, which claims an email contact list of 7,000 but has no formal members, is known for its media savvy and human rights emphasis.
Its young, energetic staff of five includes spokeswoman Sarah Elgazzar, 24. Based in Montreal, the bilingual and very pregnant McGill grad was juggling interviews from dawn to dusk last week. Articulate and funny, Elgazzar admits she's in demand because so few Muslim women deal with the media. "Representing the Muslim community — and I don't say I do — is a very big burden to carry on your shoulders. I'm a teeny-weeny woman who wears hijab and plays hockey and speaks both languages, and I was born here. That blows people away." (MORE)

"A French court has jailed 25 alleged Islamic militants for planning attacks in France in support of Chechen rebels, the BBC reported Wednesday...." WHY " ALLEGED" and "rebels" ? Souldn't it be, " the muslim terrorists found guilty and sentenced to death?" This is the kind of comment that is so maddening. Who are these ignorant reporters. Am I ever glad that JW/DW is here to clear away the misconceptions. I thank GOD for all of you here.

...and oh by the way... they were plotting to blow up the Eiffel Tower....

France and Paris will accept this with a shrug? I guess to have any kind of gut reaction you have to have a gut.

arjun.sevak: "After all, it is all jihad. And we are all infidels."

True, but they usually try to be at least remotely plausible in their pretext du jour.

So when does that next shipment of French arms reach Russia? Naturally, there has to be a connection right? Of course, when you threaten the Eiffel tower you threaten those area cafes charging $6.00 for a cup of coffee. Maybe that will finally be enough to draw the "wrath" of the natives.

Caroline asked, "What does France have to do with Chechnya?"

Because France is not sufficiently dhimmi and still maintains friendly relations with Russia.

"Why didn't they go blow up things in Russia?"

From theatres in Moscow to the Belsan school, Russia has suffered more terrorist murders per-capita than any other country, except Israel. Unfortunately, like Israel, Russia has refused to define the enemy as Islam. Until they do, the terror will continue.

First Beauty Queen Named in Chechnya
28.05.2006 14:06 MSK
The southern Russian republic of Chechnya has announced the winner of its controversial first beauty contest. Fifteen-year-old Zamira Dzhabrailova was named Beauty of Chechnya, and took home a foreign-made car and a cash prize, the BBC reported

YES READ THE WHOLE THING THEN THINK ABOUT YOUR FREEDOM?

DO NOT LET YOU POLITATIONS SELL YOU OUT!!
In the early stages of the competition, RTR Russia TV asked the prime minister whether he would let his sister take part. “I would, of course,” he responded. “She’d show our traditions and customs, and what a Chechen girl should be like.” And the correspondent was also keen to get his views on fashion issues.

“Long skirts,” Kadyrov said. “As if they were going to church.” But then he added a little later: “Well, about skirts, if she’s got good legs then a bit shorter. But if she’s got bad legs best to have a long skirt.”


DIDN'T SEE NO SHORT SKIRTS MUST ALL HAVE REALLY BAD LEGGS??

Someone needs to sue the ACLU!!!
