This indelibly illustrates how effective French authorities are at fighting against jihadis. Good thing all Western countries will continue to bring in large numbers of Muslims, among whom will be an unknowable number of jihad terrorists. Not to worry: if anything goes wrong, they will be placed under house arrest.
Not also that this witless article calls them “radicalised Frenchmen.” They would almost certainly deny vehemently that they are Frenchmen at all, and affirm that they are citizens of the global umma. But as far as the establishment propaganda media is concerned, if I was born in a garage, I must be an automobile.
“Syria-bound jihadis arrested in Slovenia despite being under house arrest… in FRANCE,” by Romina McGuinness, Express, February 9, 2017 (thanks to The Geller Report):
TWO radicalised Frenchmen were arrested by Slovenian authorities on their way to Syria, where they were planning to join up with members of the radical Islamic group ISIS, French officials have said.
The men, who were both on the government’s terrorist watch list, known as the ‘S’ list, managed to escape from France in December and head towards ISIS-controlled territory despite being under heavy police surveillance, it has been revealed.
The extremists fled the country while under house arrest in Bayonne, a town in southwestern France, prefect of the Pyrénées-Atlantiques region Éric Morvan said.
Mr Morvan said the men, whose names and identities are yet to be revealed, “violated the terms of their house arrest”.
The radicalised duo were not allowed to leave Bayonne and had to check in at the local police station several times a week, but somehow managed to slip under the radar.
They were eventually arrested in Slovenia, a stopover point for people going to Syria, after travelling more than 900 miles across Europe.
Mr Morvan added: “The fact that two radicalised men managed to escape while under house arrest does not mean that Bayonne is a hotbed of jihadism.”….
No, it means it’s a hotbed of official idiocy.

One thing we Brits learned long ago, never trust the French to do anything right.

When it comes to the problems of Islam all Western European govs are equally stupid, only in Eastern Europe people are more sensible.
In France things are changing, there will be a European desislamisation event in Béziers (Southern France) on March 4, 2017. http://www.desislamisation.eu/ I’ll attend and will report.

Sounds good epistemology – look forward to your report.

I’m afraid Britain–and much of the rest of the West–has similar problems.

Well, *that* policy is effective…sar/off

Western journalists are wilfully blind about jihad. They really want to believe that Islam is peaceful so they won’t have to learn anything about it. Most Western journalists are fundamentally dishonest about Islam, because they hope Islam will bring the collapse of European civilization.
Glenn Wilson says
Just shoot them in the head and dispose of the bodies. No one will miss them. There friends will think they died fighting with ISIS.
Angemon says
Really? Is that the worse they did? How about the de-facto treason?
Anne Smith says
Why waste time, money and effort stopping them. If they get to Syria Putin’s men will annihilate them. Cheaper for everyone, especially the taxpayers, all round and they will not be able to breed more jihadis in Europe.

What a disaster!!
It’s time to start deporting people – because ultimately who can afford this?
The French are going to build a wall around the Eiffel Tower…
They have been under a state of emergency for a year – which was only supposed to last 6 months, now has been extended to a year and a half.
After the Paris attacks the police claim they simply can’t monitor all these jihadis suspects. Read: they’d lost control of their streets – enter the army and the state of emergency! But all’s well ~ if we could just get this integration right! More immigration!!
::
Sarkozy put some good plans in place – after France had a national debate on Islam’s place in French society [remember when we used to debate things – those were the days!!], it was decided that French citizenship would not automatically be granted – there would be a probationary period of some 8 years, in which the person had to show a willingness to integrate and to be a part of French society. To accept French values. The ones they fought for in the Revolution! Of course, he lost to a socialist – in part because he was asleep at the wheel. He should have did more to slow the immigration flow from North Africa. [On purely economic grounds it makes no sense – with millions of welfare dependent immigrants ~ why take in more?]
Most Muslims in Europe hold dual citizenship. These men were on their way to the Islamic State – it’s clear they no longer wish to be French citizens. By bringing them back to France, essentially we are holding people captive. They should be stripped of their French passport, send them back to Morocco or Algeria wherever they came from – and if they travel to the Islamic state from there – at least you are not fighting them on French soil.
Let these jihadis go!! Once they are back in France, then the must be monitored 24/7 or jailed [where they can further indoctrinate others] – at an enormous cost to the taxpayer. What the French are paying for is a hostile force ~ a resistance.
