France: Muslim who rammed car into soldiers illegal immigrant, not known to police

Aug 10, 2017 3:36 pm By Robert Spencer

There are just so many such people, French authorities can’t possibly keep track of them all. And since he wasn’t known for “extremism,” they let him alone. After all, it isn’t as if reading the Qur’an and going to mosque could “radicalize” him, right? It’s a religion of peace!

“Pictured: Algerian, 36, suspected of mowing down six soldiers outside barracks in Paris terror attack before being shot five times and arrested while ‘driving his BMW towards Calais,'” by Sara Malm, Rory Tingle, and Peter Allen, MailOnline, August 9, 2017 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

This picture is believed to show the suspected terrorist shot and arrested in connection with this morning’s attack in Paris, which saw six soldiers injured when a BMW mowed down their patrol.

Hamou Bachir, 36, is under armed guard in hospital after he was ‘seriously wounded’ in a fierce gunfight close to the northern port town of Boulogne-sur-Mer after he was intercepted driving towards Calais.

Bachir, who was not known to the security services, was shot five times, with one officer also hit by a bullet, before being arrested, according to a security source.

The suspect – who also uses the name Benlatreche – is thought to be an illegal immigrant who was subject to a ‘foreigner infraction’ notice meaning he faced deportation to Algeria, which used to be French colony.

A search is underway at a building believed to be connected to Bachir in Sartrouville.

‘The suspect was driving a black BMW identical to the one used in the attack on the soldiers,’ said the source.

‘Its number plate was recorded by video surveillance, and put out to police forces around the country.’

Bachir was speeding along the A16 motorway, towards Calais, when specialist firearms officers from nearby Lille and Rouen engaged.

The suspect is thought to have a mad ‘a sudden movement’ as if he was taking a gun out, and then he tried to escape.

It is then that bullets were fired at the man. It is not known whether he was in fact carrying a weapon.

‘The arrested individual, born in 1980, is suspected to be the culprit of the assault in the Levallois-Perret area of Paris at around 8am,’ a security source said.

‘He was driving the vehicle we were looking for and tried to flee,’ the source added, explaining why police opened fire.

Prime Minister Edouard Philippe has since confirmed that police had arrested the suspect behind the attack while speaking to MPs during parliament question time.

The anti-terrorism unit of the Paris prosecutors’ office has launched a probe into the ‘attempted killings… in relation to a terrorist undertaking’, the office said in a statement.

The driver of a dark BMW is alleged to have been waiting for the soldiers to leave the barracks in Levallois-Perret, a northwestern suburb of the capital, before speeding into the group.

Two soldiers were seriously injured in the incident, which took place at about 8am local time on Wednesday.

Levallois-Perret is meant to be one of the most secure towns in France, as it contains the headquarters of the DGSI (General Directorate for Internal Security), the country’s main counter-terrorism intelligence agency.

The security initiative was set up in 2015 following a series of atrocities inParis carried out by Islamic State and Al-Qaeda operatives….

    the years of inbreeding of these “pigs” (lol) is shown time and again by deformities of the human form of/in the thousands of offspring they produce.. this one has a wonky eye that looks like it’s looking right when he’s actually looking straight forward.. i’m saying this in the name of “love and peace” so don’t shoot the messenger.. just an observation i’ve made from and after looking at hundreds of the same laborious faces time after time and seeing obvious defects in this subhuman species..

      Yes–birth defects are higher among Muslims than any other groups, for just this reason.

        I think the Amish have a higher incident of birth defects, as they have been inbreeding for hundreds of year in the USA, but Muslims are close behind. Marrying first cousins is popular in some Muslim countries and after thousands of years of this practice they are having problems with inherited diseases.

        • gravenimage says

          Shane, I meant large groups. There are only about 250,000 Amish people.

          NOT ‘thousands’ of years. That’s historically inaccurate, and how.

          Islam was invented about 1400 years ago. That means it is *one* thousand and four hundred or so years old. That is NOT ‘thousands’. It is one-and-a-bit thousand. Big difference.

          And many countries have been fully Islamised only quite recently – Nubia, for example, was Christian until the *seventeenth* century, so they have only been Islamic for two hundred years, and Kafiristan (now ‘Nuristan’) in Afghanistan was forcibly Islamised in the *nineteenth* century. So *those* populations can only have been following Islamic practices for not many generations at all, unlike the core populations in Arabia that went Islamic first, or the earliest regions conquered – Egypt, North Africa, Mesopotamia, Persia. But even those apart from Arabia itself and North Africa where the infidel population was rapidly decimated, did not become *majority* Islamic until, in historical terms, quite recently.

    So, a fierce gunbattle,but the perp had no weapon. What, were they shooting at each other? Inspector Clouseau: “I demand an answer!”

    This guy is lying in wait outside the barracks, no on notices. Are the same guys in charge of security for both this barracks and the one that UK soldier Lee Rigby was assigned to?

    So, what does it prove that he was “not known to police”? Either French police keep very bad records or that some jihadi will have his “initiation” FIRST TIME. In the latter case it does not make him any less dangerous that if he would be an experienced “veteran” of jihad.

    Hatred and resentment can be employed in the service of Islam without getting into conflict with its tenor and its spirit, and that clearly indicates who invented this monstrosity of a religion.

      Hatred and resentment are INSTRUCTED in the mosques.

        Hate is an honorable attitude if it is directed against evil:

        King David: “Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.” –
        Jesus: “But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.” –

        But hate should be tempered by the words of the apostle Paul: “Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.”

    France: Muslim who rammed car into soldiers illegal immigrant, not known to police
    ……………….

    How many more are there like him in France–besides all the known Jihad plotters that authorities are too overwhelmed to track?

    France has a moral responsibility to round up every Moslem on its soil and deport them all to Syria.

    Islam can never be a part of France nor French culture.

      the french gov’t will send you to prison for suggesting that.

      What about Germany? Sweden? The Netherlands? The U.K.? The U.S.? Canada? Australia? Etc., etc.

      They’re all being undermined by the stealth jihadis & the demographic jihadis, as well as suffering attacks from violent jihadis.

    Notice a small welcome change. Up to now coverage of such acts have stated “a car hit pedestrians …a truck drove into…..”. This time, at last, “The driver of a dark BMW is alleged to have been waiting….”.

    Yes, this is deserved recognition: it was the DRIVER.

    “There are just so many such people, French authorities can’t possibly keep track of them all” Well then what does that tell you morons? Don’t let them in the country in the first place!

  10. John A. Marre says

    Was he able to afford a BMW because of the generosity of the French people? Surely wasn’t from his work, since he is obviously a moronic inbreed, suffering from the birth defect known as Islam.
