A suspected arson attack on a French kosher grocery store revived fears over anti-Semitism on Tuesday, three years to the day since an assault on a Jewish supermarket by an Islamist gunman.
Although details are sketchy in this attack, it looks highly suspect given the anti-Semitic attacks Jews have been facing in France since the streaming in of Muslim migrants, and the fact that another kosher supermarket, the Hyper Cacher market, was the victim of a previous jihad attack three years ago to the day.
It is also unimaginable to think that because of a person’s identity that he or she will be pushed from a third-floor window and die; while another family would be beaten, held hostage and robbed, also because of their race. This is what happened to Jewish victims at the hands of Islamic supremacists in France; and what has France done about this escalation of jihad and Islamic anti-Semitism? Everyone knows that such violence would never be tolerated against any other group. The President of the Confederation of Jews in France only days ago warned that in a few decades, there will be no Jews in France.
“French Kosher Store Burns Down on Attack Anniversary”, Breitbart, January 9, 2018:
PARIS (AFP) – A suspected arson attack on a French kosher grocery store revived fears over anti-Semitism on Tuesday, three years to the day since an assault on a Jewish supermarket by an Islamist gunman.
Prosecutors said the store in the southern Paris suburb of Creteil caught fire overnight, days after it was daubed with anti-Semitic graffiti.
“The damage is believed to be very severe,” Creteil prosecutor Laure Beccuau told AFP.
A source close to the police probe said it was “too soon to discuss motives” though Beccuau said investigators do not believe the fire was an accident.
The Promo & Destock store was one of two neighbouring kosher shops in Creteil that were daubed with swastikas last Wednesday.
Israel’s ambassador to France Aliza Bin Noun called the fire a “shameful provocation” on the third anniversary of the January 9, 2015 attack at the Hyper Cacher kosher supermarket in eastern Paris.
Jihadist gunman Amedy Coulibaly killed three customers and an employee in an attack that triggered deep concern over growing anti-Semitism.
That attack came two days after Coulibaly’s close friends Said and Cherif Kouachi gunned down 11 people at the offices of satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, kicking off a wave of jihadist attacks in France.
– ‘Deep-rooted’ anti-Semitism –
That year, a record 7,900 French Jews emigrated to Israel, many of them citing increased fears over anti-Semitism.
Though the exodus has since slowed, a string of anti-Semitic crimes have continued to worry France’s large Jewish community.
In April 2017, a Jewish woman was murdered, pushed from a third-floor window by a Muslim neighbour, while a Jewish family was beaten, held hostage and robbed in what rights groups said was a hate crime.
Former prime minister Manuel Valls told Europe 1 radio that more needed to be done to tackle anti-Semitism, which he said had become “deeply rooted” in France.
“What has changed over the past three years is the awareness of this level of anti-Semitism,” he said.
Valls said French society as a whole had failed to mobilise in support of Jews following attacks such as the 2012 Islamist shooting at a Jewish school in Toulouse in which four people were killed, three of them children.
“These are crimes that must be prosecuted and condemned, we need to do more,” he said.
Abdelkader Merah, the brother of the jihadist who carried out the school attack, was handed a 20-year jail sentence in November….

And the French denial about jihad continues, in spite of daily incidents of anti-Semitism perpetrated by Muslims throughout France. Old ladies are knocked down or punched. Boys wearing a kippa are attacked. Acts of vandalism against synagogues are commonplace. The French have learned nothing from their experience of Nazi occupation. Now they are being slowly occupied by a more subtle invader that slowly encroaches and strangles its victims…POLITICAL ISLAM.
Islam is the new Nazism in France. How much will it take for the French to see it?
Macron will do nothing, since the globalists want him to do nothing to upset Muslims whom they are using to break up and destroy European culture and nationalism.

Exactly, mortimer ! This quote proves it ,..’ a source close to the Police probe , ” said it was too soon to discuss motives ” ‘ Too soon ,… Just after swastikas were painted on the store ? The Keystone Cops could figure this one out ! It was an Islamic arson attack meant to instill ,….” fear in the unbeliever ” . Europe , especially France , the UK and Germany ARE LOST to Islam . The French Culture ,….WILL BE DESTROYED , AND YET THEY STILL DON’T SEE…. what IS COMING ! French wine , French cuisine , the arts …all of that will be destroyed in favor of Sharia Law. It is so disappointing to see such culture disappear.
J D S says
More and more the world is seeing just what Islam is…and it stands still…At some point SURELY we are going to wake up and do something…If any other established religion decided to start doing what Islam is doing What would happen…would the world turn a blind eye, as it I’d doing to the atrocities in Islam????? I don’t think so.
The whole of the Muslim world seems to agree with what some are doing if not THEY WOULD TAKE TO THE STREETS and MOSQUES and demand an end to the atrocities kick out their preachers and REVISE their BOOK OF HATE. Will that happen..?? Only Jesus can make it happen…

Jews and Christians need to stick together to fight this evil against them.

============================
Who says there is nothing to laugh about? Austria, Linz (Source Wochenblick): “A 12 year old ‘lad’ from Afghanistan (unaccompanied minor/refugee) raped a girl in Linz.” People are somewhat cheesed off about the “lad”, want to know why? Here’s a close up. It’s in German, but a picture says a thousand words…. wochenblick.at/sex-attacke-in-linz-wirbel-um-zwoelfjaehrigen-afghanen-mit-bart/ …Isn’t he he cute?
However, America is not to be out-done by such trivia! No Sireee! Oprah Winfrey has apparently announced that she will, or considers, running against Trump in 2020. Who will be her running mate? Kushner? DeVito? 🙂 Be that as it may, Trump, in act of aloof statesmanship, already announced that he will beat her – he’d probably be responding to Kermit as well, if the Muppet were to make an announcement…
Well, JW is far, far behind in entertainment value… Christine Douglass-Williams wrote an article how the world could learn from Israel which has successfully prevented illegal immigration by 2017. Watered down versions of the Israeli approach have been suggested by various groups in western Europe; AfD, FN, etc. Problem, every Jewish community group and leader rose to condemn such fall backs to Nazi times and outright racism. Heavily backed by the “conservative” media.
Comment: It has been suggested that the earth is a spaceship. How about about spaceship of fools?

PS: I forgot:
Bundeswehr, Germany. The number of German soldiers below the age of 18, i.e., 17 and exempt from combat duty until they reach age 18, has risen fivefold since 2011. The number of new female recruits has risen ***eightfold*** since 2011 – I wonder why. Incidentally, from 17 to 18 they receive full weapons and combat training. Incidentally over the last 2-3 years their number has risen sharply, accelerating. Mysterious, very mysterious, what could be the reason?
Britain:
***Sharia-May has been in action!***
She has dissolved about half the cabinet and replaced with female ministers, so as to ‘reflect British society’.

Oprah is a racist. She fished up a story about a black mother of 4 walking home from church in 1948 and being raped by 4 white men. 1948!!! No mention of Yasidi women and children being sex slaves for dark skinned men. If she really wanted to jump on the depraved male bandwagon she might have gone global. Oprah seems only to think of the oppressed black Americans.

Walter Sieruk says
With this news two things need to be made clear. First., even before those brutal murderous Islamic terror attacks of Charlie Hebdo and then later those jihad ISIS attack in Paris, France, 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.
[1] THE ISIS CRISIS by Charles Dyer Page 44
Second,this is somewhat of a reminder of those vicious and murderous Islamic terror attacks in the city of Paris , on November 13, 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.”
SaipanSam says
‘…revived fears…’????
Those fears never went away… Nor should they until the last vestiges of Islam are wiped from European shores
Guy Forester says
I do hope that there are Jewish readers in France that are following JW. I would recommend that these readers go to JFPO (Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership) for an alternate view of how to deal with these attacks on France, and especially French Jewish citizens.
Unfortunately, you need to deal with generations of socialist indoctrination into European culture in general and French culture in particular. For some reason, despite the atrocities of WW2 and the need for such responses as the Warsaw Ghetto uprising, there seems to be a mental block regarding the rights of a free people to self-defense. No folks, the government is not able to be everywhere all the time to protect each and every person. Even if they wanted to, they could not.
Note how Switzerland has so few issues with Jihad attacks. This may be due to the structure of their military and reserves system and the reservists having their service weapons and some ammo at home once they complete their active duty training and service. And no, these firearms do not collect dust and rust.
LeftisruiningCanada says
Yes, the Swiss are in the best shape of all western europe. Not so much of the limp wristed lefty pc nonsense there, though they are not immune.
There’s a good book on how the Swiss dealt with the threat of Nazi invasion in the war. “The Swiaa and the Nazis” by Stephen Halbrook. Their character hasn’t changed nearly so much as those other brave resistors of the nazis, the British.
Halbrook also did another great book on firearm control under the third reich.
MFritz says
Muslim antisemitism in France has been happening for A LONG time. Alas, nobody paid much attention to it because the “social card” (e.a. “the poor Algerians”) was played.

France: Kosher store burned down on anniversary of jihad attack
…………………….
Appalling–but not surprised.
CRUSADER says
Fill-in-the-Blank’s terror attempt is a byproduct of Islamic teachings that make the non-Muslim enemy number one, regardless of any real or imagined “grievances.” The reason Fill-in-the-Blank struck the U.S. as opposed to Country-he-left is probably because the latter has more “draconian” security measures that made America an easier target.
Ironically, Country-he-left ‘s authorities, who said Fill-in-the-Blank “was closely following several jihadist websites,” come closer to the mark: “He seemed to have this hatred for America,” said the chief of Country-he-left’s counterterrorism police operations.
“We’re not exactly sure where it came from.”
While the answer is self-evident—the hatred came from jihadi websites that preach hate for all infidels 24/7—at least Country-he-left ‘s authorities do not offer silly and sappy motivations such as “grievances,” which is more than can be said for so-called mainstream (lame-stream, drive-by) Western media and their nonstop efforts to portray Islamic aggressors as “tragic heroes.”
