Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

France: Nine Muslims arrested in anti-terror raids as jihad massacre in Nice is thwarted

Nov 7, 2017 9:27 am By Robert Spencer

Only nine paragraphs into this story does AFP deign to inform us that this was an Islamic jihad terror plot that was thwarted. Would putting this little detail any higher have been “Islamophobic”? Is there some “journalistic” directive somewhere for establishment media “reporters” that tells them how far down the information that a plot or attack was yet more jihad has to be buried?

“Nine held in anti-terror raids across France as ‘attack is thwarted,'” AFP, November 7, 2017 (thanks to J.):

Nine suspects were arrested in a series of anti-terror operations carried out around France on Tuesday, with French media reporting a planned attack on the city of Nice had been thwarted.

The raids took place in the greater Paris region of Île-de-France and the Provence-Alpes-Côtes-d’Azur region of the south east.

According to reports some nine individuals aged between 18 and 60-years-old were arrested in the raids carried out by France’s specialist counter-terrorist police.

The arrests were reportedly made in the Val-de-Marne department to the south west of Paris, Seine-Saint-Denis to the capital’s north, the city of Aix-en Provence, north of Marseille and the town of Menton, on the border with Italy.

Those held included two brothers who were known to have been radicalised, sources told AFP.

An arrest was also made in Switzerland which brought the total number of suspects held to 10.

The 27-year-old man arrested in Switzerland was in contact with a 14-year-old French boy who was “about to carry out the attack,” one of the sources said.

The teenager was arrested in the Paris region on June 20 and charged by an anti-terror judge, the sources said.

A photo of the boy holding a paper vowing his allegiance to the Islamic State group was found on social media, they added….

    Yes, there is an obvious directive, in America and Western Europe, to downplay the Islamic influence in all crimes – from the “lone wolf attacks” to “mass murder.” That is bias to hide Islamic influence applies even when the perpetrator shouts “Allahu Akbar.”

    First, those arrests are ,somewhat of , a reminder of Those vicious and murderous Islamic terror attacks in the city of Paris , on July 14 , 2015, is because of those jihad-minded Muslim males who are so extremely deluded and irrational because they really believed in the nonsensical , strange and far –fetched doctrine contained in the Koran, of sex-filled paradise with black eye- houris, virgins, in it for the male Muslim who dies as a “martyr” for the cause of Islam fighting in the jihad. As, this bizarre Islamic doctrine of a houris -filled place is found in the Koran in, for example, 4:54. 55:56. 78:31. So this odd and outlandish Koranic doctrine inspired many young Muslims males to commit many horrendous, ruthless, heartless and murderous actions of jihad violence. Those vicious jihadists’ massacres that occurred in Paris was most wicked and hideous. That extreme deadly evil caused by those jihadist/Muslims with their firm but blind unquestioning belief in the weird and false doctrine from the Koran of such a houris, filled paradise that had the outcome of mass murder and chaos in the city of Paris. This is a strong reminder of the wise statement written by the French philosopher, Voltaire, who wrote “As long as men continue to believe in absurdities they will continue to commit atrocities.”

    Second. even before those vicious ISIS jihad attack and those brutal murderous Islamic terror attacks in Paris on July 14 and then on November 13, 2015 and then that Nice, France jihad murdering jihad attack on July 14, 2016 in an ISIS audio recording broadcasted on September 2014 declared “If you can kill a disbelieving American or European especially the spiteful and filthy French …kill him in any manner or way however it may be.” [1] This alone exposes the vicious and malicious way of thinking of the jihadist who composes ISIS. The result of this wicked mindset where those heinously malice – filled jihad mindset was carried out by those by those Islamic jihadist deadly attacks in Paris and Nice. Furthermore the jihadists of ISIS sure have some gall calling the French “spiteful” since it’s the jihadist ISIS thugs who are so very spiteful that they murder people in many extremely cruel ways. Likewise, the ISIS savages have some gall calling the French “filthy” Since it’s the ISIS jihadist villains who the ones who are so lawless and vile that the kidnap and rape both girls and women.

    By all accounts, Kevin Spacey was/is a sleaze, and thanks to wall to wall media coverage, his career is toast.

    So where is the righteous outrage and media disgust when a “14-year-old French boy” is propositioned by a “27-year-old man” to commit and act of terror?

    Robert uses the word “radicalized”, but that’s just a pejorative synonym for orthodox Islam. The Islam we’re talking about is Mohammed’s Islam. There is no Muslim alive today more orthodox, or radical, if you prefer, than Mohammed. Docile Islam is just orthodox Islam awaiting opportunity. Meanwhile, the believers conduct their acts of charity by funding proxy jihad.
