Here is yet another indication of the abject inability of authorities (contrary to their claims) to vet Muslims and determine whether or not they are jihadis. There is, in the first place, no way to do this, since both the Islamic State and al-Qaeda have instructed jihadis to appear to be secular and trigger no concern by being devout. They needn’t worry about that in any case, since Western law enforcement authorities are bound by politically correct fantasies to deny that devout observance of Islam could in any way be an indication of a proclivity for jihad terror. Authorities deny that there is any Islamic jihad threat; how, then, can they vet for jihadis?
These 82 people were hired because authorities didn’t dare investigate them the way they should have, even if they knew how to do so, which is doubtful. They don’t know the right questions to ask and the right signs to watch for, and even if they do, they don’t dare go in that direction. To have investigated these Muslims properly would have been “Islamophobic.”
“Euro 2016: 82 security staff revealed to be on terror watch list – French intelligence,” RT, June 5, 2016 (thanks to Milad):
A new shocking twist in the Euro 2016 saga has emerged just days after stark warnings ISIS would make the event a target. It turns out 82 of the people hired for security posts on the football cup are on French terror watch lists.
The Directorate General of Internal Security (ISB) has screened a total of 3,500 individuals already hired for the job of ensuring the safety of visitors, according to Le Point. Those among the 82 found on the watch list could by definition either belong to a terrorist group, such as Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL), or have a history of questionable behavior or extreme beliefs on either the left or right.
According to French authorities, some 90,000 personnel in total will be on duty during Euro 2016, including the stadiums, fan zones and on the streets. Of those, 77,000 are police and gendarmerie, while the rest comprise security and military personnel, as well as 1,000 or so volunteers.
“Such a unique event in exceptional circumstances requires extra security measures,” Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve told journalists.
In the meantime, French President Francois Hollande admitted that the risk of a terrorist attack taking place during the Euro 2016 football championship exists.
“This threat will last for a long time. But we must do everything to ensure that the Euro 2016 is a success,” the French president told radio France Inter on Sunday.
The French had made promises that the championship would be entirely secure, and the Mediterranean resort of Nice is set to spend about €1.2 million on preparations, which is almost half the €2.5 million budget, according to Le Point. The city will host four matches.
Each football team will also be given 17 police officers and two agents with France’s elite special forces for extra protection….

That photo show perfectly the state of readiness of the British police No magazine fitted, a chamber flag indicating the firearm is unloaded and yellow bands around it indicating it is a blank firing training weapon.
British police would be absolutely screwed if they were confronted with a Mumbai/Paris style marauding attack, their training and tactics are woefully incapable of dealing with such an attack despite the bullshit that is spewed from the mouth of Theresa May.
I admire our security services they do a fantastic job under extremely difficult circumstances but there needs to be a change in the whole mindset about the jihad threat being faced and I fear there will be huge loss of life should a marauding attack occur unless that change is effected immediately
Keith says
They are having problems getting enough police to sign up for arms training as most officers believe that if they have to shoot they will be in danger of being prosecuted for murder. The British police have no protection if they have to make a split second decision as whether to fire or not.
Angemon says
Indeed. And I can assure you that’s not an issue exclusive of the UK.
mustapha crap says
Not only that but AFO recruitment is being swelled in numbers by officers from other departments who are facing a choice between signing up for AFO selection of redundancy rather than wishing to become an AFO for the right motives, also positice discrimination means that from however many officers are on a training schedule a certain percentage are automatically selected from ethnic minorities regardless of whether they are actually capable of passing the selection process.
So not only are the police massively under prepared because of training deficits they potential abilities of newly appointed firearms officers may not be as rigourously enforced due to the positive discrimination imposed by the Home Office to ensure representation of ethnic minority candidates.
Recently two female AFO successfully sued the police for sex discrimination arguing that the Glock G17 police issue sidearm was too large for them to hold corrrectly which was discriminatory to women with potentially smaller hands.
It would be laughable if the consequences were not so serious
linnte says
OMGoodness! I didn’t even notice this was a training rifle! Good catch ! That will teach ME to be more observant. Wow!
kangi_nunpa says
Good point, Mustapha.
Of the fact that police officer can’t even correctly *hold* the rifle we need not even speak.
Ronnie Murphy says
1 – Jihad Watch use some stock photo of police on a training exercise, in a public place, with weapons set for training.
2 – So, police are safety aware enough not to use live weapons, in public, when training.
3 – Some muppet points out that this shows the unreadiness of the police.
There’s some stupidity going on here. It isn’t 1 or 2.
linnte says
I have decided to not feel any sympathy toward our European/British relatives until the poop hits the fan. The blatant STUPIDITY of their actions is just too astonishing to swallow, and every time I swallow it, I get sick.
If I had anyone report to me that Ramadan would be the best time for them to kill me, I would take it very very seriously. The Islamic State are probably wetting their dresses with glee over how irresponsible France is.
mustapha crap says
Linnte there are a large and ever growing number of average people not only in Britain but across Europe who have seen through the lies of the political elite and the George Soros funded NGOs, nationalist political parties are seeing large increases in membership.
Britons have had their fill of being told what to do and how to think by the filth pushing the multicultural agenda the infiltration of insidious political charities like Common Purpose into public services like education health police etc has reached the point where people are starting to fight back against it.
Groups like Pegida, EDL etc are doing their best to bring the Islamic problem into widespread public view despite the best efforts of the politicians using the police and media to demonise and attack ANYONE who speaks out against the growing Islamic influence on our society.
Freedom WILL prevail IF Britain votes to leave the EU later this month it will be seen across Europe by the people that it is possible to halt the anti democratic EU elite and will very likely start an avalanche of referendum demands by other European nations, This is one of the reasons the EU is running scared they know that their time is running out and people have had enough, people were pissed off with the EU before the migrant invasion started and a Brexit will kickstart the process of kicking out the EU dictatorship and reinstating democracy across Europe and the ending of the Islamic invasion of European nations.
We may well need help from the US and many of us across Europe are praying for a Trump victory to bring about a US administration with the balls to confront the Islamic threat to the west. God help us all if the rancid corrupt shrew gets elected
linnte says
Let’s pray that Trump is elected because if or when Europe needs the help of the USA, you can bet Hillary will take her sweet time and then I doubt she will support indigenous Europeans, but the Muslim population to the tune of “how dare you Europeans begin a fight with people who have desperately left a war already”. This will cause a world war you know. Protests from both sides here in America will rise up, the National Guard will be busy. Martial Law will prevail. The Muslims in the ME will be rioting too;Africa, etc. The Chinese and Indian Muslims will be involved and then the whole world will be in turmoil. I guess I just have too active of an imagination ?
Anne Smith says
It is not the European or British relatives you need to despise, most people in Europe and Britain are heartily sick of their pusillanamous and feeble Governments who cowtow to the EU and obey blindly because the politicians just love supping at the “top table”.
The EU has connived at the huge influx of Muslims, mostly fit young men who more resemble an invading army than genuinely desperate refugees.
If Britain votes OUT as most of us hope will happen then the worms are truly beginning to turn.
linnte says
Ah, Anne, I don’t despise the British. I love them DEEPLY! I just am very angry and disgusted and feel betrayed too. Hurt is another way to put it. It scares the hell out if me that England VOTED in a Muslim Mayor for London. I just wish I could be there to help convince the population to vote OUT! The Muslim invasion of Europe and Britain is by and far the most critically important event in the history of the West; even more so than ww2, to me at least. Just know I love my British relatives, but that doesn’t mean I can’t be angry as hornet’s at their behavior.
Sergio says
The British dug their own graves when they rejected Christianity and espoused moral relativism. That was the first and last nail in their coffin. The modern British are an abortion-loving, Christian-hating, homosexuality-promoting, Islam-appeasing, and pedophilia-condoning bunch of people that don’t have any absolute moral values to help them in fending off the onslaught of other world views. The UK is just reaping what they started sowing at the beginning of the 20th century.
Guest says
Nice to know they are taking this sooooo seriously *sarcasm*
Mockingjay says
It looks like we’re in for one HELL of a soccer Championship in France this summer.
berserker says
– As Zizek said recently, “Who cares?”
– What about virgin Jihadis? In other words, those who are committed to Jihad but are not on any terrorist watch lists, yet?
Mak says
So it seems the Euro Championship this year conincides with the second week of Ramadan. This gives the mussizes enough time to get all prepped in the Mosques for their Jihad. So I wonder: Is anyone keeping the books for body count and time of strike? If so, what’s still open? LOL.

Yet the Canadians voted for him

French farce sums this up.

Back onto my old hobby horse. 82 extra people over (say) 6 months? What sort of money is that? Up to $ half a mrillion? More? Add that to all the other ‘incidental costs’ of having muslims on board and what do we get now?
ECAW says
French security forces have received a tip off to be on the lookout for bombs smuggled into matches, possibly disguised like this:

They could have looked at the Terror Watch Lists. Not to say that a lot of Al Qaeda people aren’t on that list.
Dick says
Hire a fox to watch the henhouse
Linda Rivera says
What more evidence is needed that our EVIL, ISLAM-ADORING leaders WANT Muslim terrorist attacks to succeed. This is also the reason that Muslims including Muslims on Terror Watch Lists are hired as security and other positions at airports and other places.
OUR LEADERS ARE EVIL.
