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

French police find rocket launchers among massive weapons arsenal in drug raid

Nov 19, 2017 1:26 pm By Robert Spencer

These rocket launchers may have been intended for use not against anti-drug police units, but in jihad attacks. “Many of the radical Islamists involved in recent terror attacks in France have been known to have criminal backgrounds leading some to worry that weaponry could be finding its way into the hands of radical Islamists. In Germany, there has been a growing cooperation between the drug scene and the radical Islamist scene with both Arab criminal gangs and radical Islamists recruiting in asylum homes.”

Indeed, and the Taliban have financed their operations via drug sales for years, justifying this by noting that they’re selling them to non-Muslims only. “Muhammad is the apostle of Allah. Those who follow him are merciful to one another, ruthless to disbelievers” (Qur’an 48:29)

“French Police Find Rocket Launchers Among Massive Weapons Arsenal in Drug Raid,” by Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart, November 18, 2017 (thanks to Blazing Cat Fur):

French police have arrested four individuals in connection with organised drug dealing and have also found a massive arsenal of weapons including fully automatic rifles and anti-tank rocket launchers.

The four men were arrested in the regions of Eure-et-Loir, Eure and Yvelines which lies just west of Paris. Republic of Chartres prosecutor Rémi Coutin commented on the case saying investigators had found narcotics, 13,000 euros in cash and a massive arsenal of military-grade weaponry, radio broadcaster Europe 1 reports.

“The investigators seized seven weapons of war, including two loaded and ready-to-run M80 rocket launchers capable of destroying a tank, two Kalashnikovs, one Spanish assault rifle, two machine guns,” Coutin said.

The prosecutor added that the investigators also found, “twenty-two long guns including seven shotguns, 80 kg of ammunition or tens of thousands of rounds, and four jammers.” Four vehicles were also confiscated in the raid.

The arrests are the culmination of an investigation that began in November of 2015 after weapons were found at a garage just outside of the city of Chartres. A fifth suspect is also being sought after by police who have issued an international arrest warrant for him.

The raid is not the first time French authorities have found military-grade weaponry this year. In August, police in the no-go Paris suburb of Seine-Saint-Denis, a known hub of radical Islamism, found an anti-tank rocket launcher, two sawn-off shotguns, high power explosives and other equipment and ammunition….

Many of the radical Islamists involved in recent terror attacks in France have been known to have criminal backgrounds leading some to worry that weaponry could be finding its way into the hands of radical Islamists.

In Germany, there has been a growing cooperation between the drug scene and the radical Islamist scene with both Arab criminal gangs and radical Islamists recruiting in asylum homes.

    The Muslim drug dealers, pimps and hoodlums see their work as a form of jihad because they get to rob and degrade the dirty kufaar… just like Mohammed did.

      Yes, that is why it is so important to send the military into these Muslim no-go zones to arrest the criminals, terrorists, and those preachers who encourage jihad against European countries. It may start a civil war, but better to start it now than 20 years from now when the percentage of Muslims will be much higher.

    “… including two loaded and ready-to-run M80 rocket launchers capable of destroying a tank….”

    train engine? plane?

    the allah god of islam (unknowable; the best of all deceivers) would be so gay if blood were spilt, and; its exemplar, muhammad (lately contrived; full of lusts; void of compassion) would think (supposedly) it right to carry on such terror rising destruction .

    No problem with that kind of thinking, eh?

      There is no hope for Germany as the majority of the non-Muslim population believes that Germany does not deserve to survive. Sad, but true.

    The rocket launchers is an indication that the Islamist are now ready to move in platoon size attacks or larger. These refugees are an invading army, not immigrants and must be dealt with as such. If France does not act soon ground war will be coming to France. it will not be Russian army but Islamist with anti air rocket launchers and .50 caliber machine guns.

    The anti tank rocket launchers found were the result of a police investigation that began in 2015. Look at the calendar. These Islamist are no longer a police concern. These are hostile troops. NATO is preparing to fight the wrong war.

    No go zones and street prayers should not have been allowed in the first place. Stop the refugees from coming in. Treat all Islamist as enemy combatants. Which means they can be shoot on the spot.

      The French army needs to go in with overwhelming force in a series of rolling raids and surprise-raid-and-search every known mosque in France. Using the dog squads. Those mosques are *the* military bases.

      All associated premises – bookshops, businesses, imams’ homes – and properties (a nice country estate in rural France?) – should *also* be raided and searched.

      I BET weapons would be found, along with explosives (or traces thereof, or of the usual precursors), illegal drugs (or traces/ residues thereof, or of the usual precursors), or actual bomb-making/ weapons and illegal-drug-manufacture labs; quite possibly, stashes of assorted poisons and biologicals; very likely, *bodies* or traces of same; and, no doubt, vast stashes of hardcore kiddie porn, along with beheading videos, rape-of-Yazidi-or-Christian-war-captive videos, and stashes of counterfeit or real cash in large suspicious amounts, along with forged or real identity documents and the wherewithal for fabricating same. Betcha.

      ANY mosque or associated premises where ANY such items are found should be seized and razed (once the forensics boys have finished with it), and the property resumed by the State for the use of Non-Muslims. Freeze and seize all associated monies or other assets.

      Ex-Muslim Sam Solomon’s books “Al Hijra: The Islamic Doctrine of Immigration” and “The Mosque Exposed” need to be translated into good French, ASAP, and circulated far and wide amongst all jihad-aware French citizenry – who can then spread them *further*, using them to awaken others. Bloc Identitaire, and the Front National, should be using translations of those books in order to shape their strategy for rescuing France from the Jihad.
