Muslim leader: Negative perceptions of Islam cause distress to Muslims living in France

May 1, 2016 2:58 pm By Robert Spencer

Maybe a moratorium on jihad terror massacres in France would help change those perceptions and alleviate that distress. Is that too much to ask?

Anouar Kbibech

“Poll: ‘Total Rejection’ Of Islam In France From All Across The Political Spectrum,” by Virginia Hale, Breitbart, May 1, 2016 (thanks to Inexion):

An Ifop poll for Le Figaro measuring perceptions of Islam has found that people have a growing sense of unease about its role in France.

What’s notable about the results is that where once such sentiments were perceived as the preserve of the “extreme right”, they are now felt across the political spectrum. Back in 2010, 39 per cent of Socialist Party voters felt Islam was too prominent within French society — a majority of 52 per cent feel this to be the case six years on.

Le Figaro says the poll confirms a “total rejection” of the religion in France, after its capital in 2015 saw two deadly Islamist terror attacks.

Seventeen people were murdered over three days in January, including most of the writers of satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo. Then, on November 13th a series of coordinated attacks claimed 130 innocent lives, including 89 people shot dead at the Bataclan theatre.

The poll also found that 47 per cent of people consider the presence of Muslim communities a threat to France’s identity, up five points from 2010. However, 19 per cent believe Muslims culturally enrich the country.

Surveys by Ifop going back to 1989 have consistently measured attitudes toward aspects of Islam in French society, and the change over the years paints a picture of a nation whose tolerance has worn thin.

In 1989 33 per cent of French people responded that they were “in favour” of building mosques, while the figure today is just 13 per cent . That year, 31 per cent were opposed to wearing the veil in general, a number that in 2016 has risen to 63 per cent.

French people’s growing distrust of Islam’s role in the country comes as data from across Western Europe shows that rather than becoming more assimilated over time, the views of second and third generation Muslims have become increasingly hardline.

Anouar Kbibech, Chairman of the French Council of the Muslim Faith, responded to the survey’s results saying that negative perceptions of Islam cause distress to Muslims living in France.

The French, he comments, must look upon Muslims as full citizens. He noting that in the past Muslims demanded a right to “difference”, Le Figaro quips that now the Muslims in France will demand a right to “indifference”.

        It is still amazing that only 47% of French people have a negative view of Islam after all the crime, riots, and terrorist attacks that they have endured for decades from their Muslims population. Also, so many of their Muslims are on welfare that the French people are paying them to make jihadi babies!

      This is what it is all about, they come to France or even here to Australia to make a new life, escape the oppression and poverty of some Middle East or North African Islamic hell hole. They know both France and Australia are nominally Christian nations but they decide to bring everything that is wrong about Islam (including Islam itself) with them.

      I personally would like to see every mosque here in Sydney demolished, every Islamic School and cultural centre closed down and all Muslims repatriated to their homelands. The people of Australia did not invite them here.

      But in the meantime the women could take off their medieval robes and wear a dress or other clothing more suited to Australia. (They even go into surf beaches wearing those robes) The men need to stop their crime including sexual assaults. They all need to learn English and try and be part of the society that is giving them so much.

      I have come the occasional Muslim who has told me they would like to renounce Islam and make a completely new life here in Australia, but basically they can not. Their evil system would eventually get them. I did recently met a woman who was an Egyptian Muslim, she was wearing shorts and a tank top (and some make up) and told me in no uncertain terms she would never wear a burka! But she then went on to give me a lecture as to how terrible Australian women were and had been in trouble with the law here for verbally assaulting a female neighbour.

    Don’t mention the following list of problems within Islam, and the perception of Islam will improve:

    1 No Golden Rule 2 No free speech 3 No democracy 4 Jihad – holy war of supremacism 5 Honour killings 6 Taqiyya – sacred lying 7 Taqlid – group think 8 Misogyny – repression of women 9 Rape of kafirs as jihad prizes 10 Genocide 11 Ethnic cleansing 12 Al-Walaa wal-Baraa – Islamic apartheid 13 Torture 14 Plundering 15 Cruel and unusual punishments 16 Backwardness – stagnation 17 Violence against women 18 Slavery 19 Discriminatory Sharia law 20 Hatred of the arts 21 Pedophilia disguised as child marriage 22 Fifty generations of cousin marriage and genetic defects 23 Cruelty to animals 24 Extortion tax to humiliate disbelievers 25 No historic basis 26 Anti-intellectual obscurantism 27 FGM 28 Arab racism 29 Theocratic totalitarianism 30 Vigilantism.

    Censorship is the answer to improving Islam’s image. The reality of Islam is painfully repulsive and too amoral to be accepted by modern people, including most Muslims.

    Muslims are disgusted by real Islam when it is practiced.

    This Muslim leader needs to come out of denial and wake up to reality because any negative feeling, about Islam, on the part of the French ,about Islam i=not because that the French are ignorant people. The negative views of Islam is because of,many times over, because of the terrible behavior of many Muslims living in France.

    I wonder what causes negative perception of Islam? How Muslims could be so so brain dead as to not understand it! How about opening your eyes and see what Muslims are doing all over the world – kill, kill, kill is their only aim in life and they do it to perfection. And then they hold us responsible for the negative impression of Islam.

  7. Wellington says

    May 1, 2016 at 3:19 pm

    Well, at least there’s no distress caused to many of the people whom Muslim terrorists attack because such people are dead, courtesy of Islam.

    Really, once again it’s all about Muzzies. They are the real victims of Islamic terror and not the dead or maimed infidels because they, poor dears, experience distress. Well, if you have a religion founded by a narcissist and one which teaches that non-believers are the equivalent of human waste, you can expect this sort of rot. Fitting, since Islam is full of all kinds of rot.

    • mortimer says

      May 1, 2016 at 3:33 pm

      Wellington successfully identified narcissism as the root of Islam and the reason Muslims suffer. Islam is moreover ‘toxic narcissism’.

      Toxic narcissism is defined as a state of constant rage, emanating from within and directed at the ‘world’ and ‘injustice’ in general. The narcissist is incapable of empathizing with the pain and suffering of others and of himself and so tries endlessly to externalize his pain by scapegoating others. A toxic narcissist (such as many Muslim leaders) constantly look for ways of externalizing their rage through sadism, brutality and cruelty. Toxic narcissism is the Sunna of Mohammed. Muslims all know that.

          Thanks for those links, ECAW. Reasonable minds (this would exclude all Muslims, even the “mildest” of them like Jasser and Manji, as well as, sad to say, way too many infidels) can differ on exactly what the character of Mohammed betokens but that Mohammed’s character betokens significant abnormality of some kind is simply not debatable.

          So, mankind has a major religion founded by one very twisted corkscrew of a human being, notwithstanding the pathetic excuses made for him by good dhimmis like Esposito and Armstrong. Adherents of this wretched religion are ever increasingly coming into possession of technology which their sorry-ass excuse of a world would have never invented but which can be used to destroy or sublimate all those who are not adherents of this religion. Compounding all this is that many non-Muslims, for whatever indefensible reason, keep making excuses for this spiritual fascism of a religion which was founded by a brutal human being.

          Oh yeah, mankind is in deep shit right now. Very deep. Time for a beer.

    Quote: “Le Figaro quips that now the Muslims in France will demand a right to “indifference”.

    How can we be indifferent to terrorism when everyone is now on the front line? Terrorists may strike anywhere we are in numbers.

    Muslims are doing little or nothing at all to stop terrorism and cannot because they will become the next targets of the terrorists.

    The only solution is for governments to create protocols to attack the Islamic death cult rationalistically with fact-based arguments. The war against Islam must now be fought ideologically, since Islam is an ideology.

      Most muslims don’t get a choice, they are born into it, brainwashed from the time they are born, beaten into submission with threats of violence and death should they ever think of criticising or leaving the religion of peace.

      Those I don’t understand are the westerners who change their religion to Islam just because some muslim tells them how peaceful it is. They should have enough common sense to at least research the koran, hadith and sira to see if they are as peaceful as muslims claim.

    Anouar Kbibech is merely trying to impose censorship on the news so that bad news about Islam is never heard. This is mostly the case in Muslim-majority countries.

    He wants Sharia law enforced in France so that no Muslim hears news that exposes the atrocities, absurdities, lies or crimes of Muslims. Only kafirs will appear in the bad news columns. Muslim crimes will cease to exist…at least will not learn of them.

    Under Sharia law, reporting a true, factual story about a Muslim that is 100% accurate is defined as ‘slander’.

    Hi all, GOOD NEWS,
    ================

    A bit of news to cheer us up: As some of you may know, the AfD is holding its party conference, yesterday and today, and the following news is so far available:

    If elected they will prohibit the following: Full Burqas. Muezzin calls. Minaretts to be demolished and new ones prohibited. Imams to be schooled in German universities, sermons in German. Islam will be investigated if it is constitutional.

    EU: Exit! Unless (extensive) reforms will be put through without delay. Turkey: Immediate stop to negotiations for EU membership. That is a bit of a red herring though, the ascension of a new member can be vetoed anyway by any existing member, such as Hungary, Slovakia etc. In other words, Turkey into the EU = fat chance.

    Immigration: Stop! Except qualified immigrants with a high probability and adaptability for integration. Translate: Muslims need not apply.

    More…..: The former leader of Czechoslovakia, Václav Klaus, has supported the AfD in numerous occasions, he sent a message that is the duty of the AfD to stop the “entdemokratisierung” (how do I translate that? But I think you can guess. De-democratization perhaps…) of Germany. Václav Klaus is one of the seniors of European politics, he was instrumental in, or at least on the preparation to, bringing the wall down. He simply let express train by express train of east Germans through to west Germany, much to the dismay of Gorbachev and Honecker. Very difficult to badmouth him as a Nazi – except for Antifa…

    More….: The AfD European Parliamentarian Marcus Pretzell, yes, they are already in there, even though the AfD is only 3 years old; joins the ENF (Europe of the Free Nations) Fraktion of the EU, which is predominantly Marine Le Pen, Geert Wilders, the Italian Lega Nord and the FPÖ of Austria. The FPÖ will provide the next Austrian president, he won practically everything, although the polls, hysterically, predicted the opposite.

    More….: The AfD European Parliamentarian Beatrix von Storch (she’s the one who said German police should shoot at the border “if necessary”) has joined the EU’s EFFD-Fraktion – where she will shake hands with Nigel Farage (Britain’s UKIP).

    If that doesn’t cheer up, here’s more….

    In the latest polls the AfD came out 3rd place, ~15% on average. Why is that good news? Well, in the polls for the German super Sunday in March they were supposed to get no more than 5%, tops. All pollster were *absolutely* sure – of course. They clocked on average 20%, with the Saxons even 25%. Now, if that would come out at the same ratio of ‘polling misrepresentation/manipulation’, then they’d get 60% in an immediate election!!! They’d win hands down.

    Source for it all: PI (Politically Incorrect) and Junge Freiheit

    One of the personality traits of the ASP and the psychopath is *never accept responsibility for anything done wrong or that goes wrong.*

    This is typical of islam and its devoted adherents: It’s always the fault of non-moslims.
    They wish to take credit for anything good…math, science, etc. Just as the psychopath or ASP does.
    But, they never will accept responsibility for the evil committed due to following the evil, murdering, raper of children. And they will not accept responsibility for the fall-out after the evil has been committed and laid at the foot of the evil beast of islam.
    Any hard feelings or rejection of moslims in the communities is never the fault of the moslims who are committing the evils, or even just agreeing with the evil.

    French people’s growing distrust of Islam’s role in the country comes as data from across Western Europe shows that rather than becoming more assimilated over time, the views of second and third generation Muslims have become increasingly hardline.

    But remember: the official narrative is that they become “hardline” because the people around them distrust them (for n apparent reason), not the other way around (people distrusting them because they’re increasingly “hardline”)…

  22. dumbledoresarmy says

    May 1, 2016 at 8:23 pm

    From the article – “…the views of second and third generation Muslims [in France, and not only in France!] have become increasingly hardline.”

    “have become increasingly hardline”.

    Translation: “…have become more openly, aggressively and purely Islamic”.

    The first generation of Muslims, establishing their beach-heads in the dar al Harb, behind ‘enemy lines’, were in ‘Mecca mode”, mostly lying low and smiling fake smiles and playing nice. And a few of them were genuinely disaffected Muslims who took the opportunity to apostasise and are not Muslims anymore; *those*, for the most part, are under changed names and living in hiding.

    The *next* generation, being more numerous, and surrounded by non-Muslims who up until now have been foolishly accommodating, are starting to ‘feel their oats’. They are flipping into “Medina mode”.

  23. dumbledoresarmy says

    May 1, 2016 at 8:26 pm

    Muslims don’t just want to be able to rape, rob, murder and enslave with impunity.

    They want their victims to flatter and pet and stroke them and tell them that they are wonderful! wonderful! wonderful!

    They are like a psycho serial killer who wants his victim to giggle and smile and tell him he is the handsomest, sexiest man on earth… even while he is torturing her and preparing to slowly murder her.

    “Maybe a moratorium on jihad terror massacres in France would help change those perceptions and alleviate that distress.”

    Game. Set. Match.

    “The French, he comments, must look upon Muslims as full citizens. He noting that in the past Muslims demanded a right to “difference”.”

    Lawlz. What a bunch of shame bereft troglodytes. How can society benefit from this cult which demands its capitulation in square circles?

    Not that it’s a novel realization, but I’ve felt for a long time that Europe will inevitably have to have its confrontation with Islam as it’s so basically incompatible with secular democracy. But the question remains: “When will the confrontation come?” And because Europeans seem not to be willing to face it, they will need additional motivation. Unfortunately the form of this motivation has already shown itself not to be the better judgement and foresight of the people, but a lower awareness, biologic and unignorable: their nervous systems. The original motivator: pain. What’s sad is it’s evident there needs to be a lot more motivation which history shows requires much more pain. That, Islam is built to deliver, so perhaps we can hope that at the end, within Islam is the seed of its own destruction.

How do you think the French feel about Muslims causing death and destruction in their country after giving them shelter and loads of welfare benefits without an ounce of gratitude in return. The French would be happy to see you miserable shits out of their country for good and I for one do not blame them at all. There are no benefits of having Muslims in their country whatsoever. Just negatives galore.

    If you are feeling distressed, piss of back to your Islamic country any day. Muslim lack of self awareness and introspection is among their endearing qualities. Freaking inbred retards.

      In siege warfare, whether in the Japans, China, Korea, or Europe … the first thing that would be attempted is to cut off the water supply. People dying of thirst have a tendency to lose their will go resist … securing a surrender is relatively easy.,

      Then, if a fortress was well defended and difficult to seize …., with a water supply that could not be stopped …

      A blockade of supplies would be ordered .. starvation works wonders towards securing a surrender..

      Cutting off welfare benefits would be somewhat akin to shutting down their water supply. Easy capitulation … and they’ll find a way to return from whence they came.

      BTW: I always enjoy your posts.

    When Dutch and British citizens felt “distressed!” 500 years ago they left so they could start again around like-minded people. France should up the ante and lay down more “distress” cards and maybe the Muslims will do the same… just get the hell out. North Africa is easily accessible from France.

    The governments of the West and I stress govts, as the people who have to live alongside were given no choice, have gon eto extraordinary lengths to keep Muslims happy in the countries they chose to settle in.
    Which I believe has increased their sense of privilege and entitlement. Now the worm is turning and they are getting upset. They however are the ones who created this situation, but you never hear a word of compromise from them, no adaptation. They just want to be in their own world and to hell with infidels. Whom by the way they believe are actually going to hell anyway.
    Perhaps if the y took a hard look at themselves and did some concrete things to blend in and be like everybody else it would help. That will never happen as anybody especially Muslims who try to modernise and reform this appalling religion is likely to be shunned at best and killed at worst.
    even their children are at risk of their lives if the try to become ‘Westernised’

    It would seem that one of the first steps would be, cutting off all government assistance to non citizens.

    This, would at least stop the flow of new entries. And, those that have not reached the status of citizenship … it might get them to move.

    Then, make welfare more restrictive. Non working adults would need to provide some sort of public service (street cleaning, trash removal, general labor, etc.) in order to continue receipt of government provided “benefits”, such as food, clothing, shelter, medical services, cash stipends … (list goes on).

    This might run a few of those with citizenship status back to a country that is more accepting of their culture … Starve in a country that hates you or .. starve in a country where the majority are like you.

    Again, this is a first step … but I believe it will go a long way.

      The other thing to do would be to make citizenship harder to *get*.

      It is difficult – quite difficult – to become a citizen of, for example, Singapore or Switzerland. Or Japan. Or even just to obtain permanent residency.

      Given the current ‘security situation’ worldwide, there is NO reason why *other* non-islamic nations, such as Canada, the USA, the UK, France, etc and so forth, could not tighten up *their* citizenship and residency laws; make it more difficult and make it take longer; include a substantial ‘probation period’; and make it quite clear that if you obtain citizenship under false pretences, and are subsequently revealed to be an Enemy Agent/ Fifth Columnist with evil intentions toward the host country, you will be **given the boot** with extreme prejudice, OUT!

      I am sure that *genuine* citizenship-seekers – e.g a fugitive Assyrian Christian – would be more than happy to accept a temporary residency and then steadfastly, patiently, and honestly work their way toward permanent residency and, ultimately, citizenship, jumping through all the hoops, learning the language, working their tail off, obeying the law, and reporting in regularly to Authority.

      Islamoresistant persons throughout the free world – and this applies just as much to ‘second-world’ and ‘third world’ as to ‘first world’ infidel countries – should be pressing their governments day and night to tighten up residency and citizenship legislation and to *enforce* the legislation rigorously. There are models – I have mentioned Japan, Singapore, Switzerland – that are working quite well and could be used as templates. The new Resistance parties – e.g Alternative for Germany, Wilders’ Party for Freedom in the Netherlands, Weston’s “Liberty Great Britain’ and others – should be getting good legal minds to look at the existing models and hammer out suitable rules for their *own* countries, that can become part of the ‘party platform’.

    The French are uneasy with the Muslims. The French stopped chopping off heads long ago. Muslims should learn how to behave better. Stop the crying about everything, its not just the violence they commit that proves them to be undesirable.

    If the negative perception of Islam in France troubles Muslims, they should do something about it:
    Muslim parents should bring up teir children to respect our Judeo-Christian civilisation and values and to reject the violence of Islam as in their holy books. They should bring them up to be grateful to the country that has taken them in, with benefits they could only dream of in their countries of origin, e.g. free education, free health care, freedom of speech, etc.
    Imams and clerics should work to prevent radicatisation of the young, and deradicalise those who are already dangerous. Only Mulsims can put a stop to all these massacres of innocents by Muslim terrorists.

    Muslim leader: Negative perceptions of Islam cause distress to Muslims living in France
    …………………

    Gee–maybe being raped and murdered by Muslims is causing a bit of distress to native French people? Ah, who cares about them? They’re just “filthy Infidels”…

    More:

    An Ifop poll for Le Figaro measuring perceptions of Islam has found that people have a growing sense of unease about its role in France…

    Le Figaro says the poll confirms a “total rejection” of the religion in France, after its capital in 2015 saw two deadly Islamist terror attacks.
    …………………

    Good–it’s about time.

    More:

    Anouar Kbibech, Chairman of the French Council of the Muslim Faith, responded to the survey’s results saying that negative perceptions of Islam cause distress to Muslims living in France.

    The French, he comments, must look upon Muslims as full citizens. He noting that in the past Muslims demanded a right to “difference”, Le Figaro quips that now the Muslims in France will demand a right to “indifference”.
    …………………

    In other words, he’s demanding that French people ignore Muslims slaughtering them…
