It is good that French authorities dared to close the mosques. This indicates that, whatever blather their leaders might offer to the public, they really do know that jihad terror has something to do with Islam, and aren’t afraid to acknowledge the presence of jihadist sentiments in mosques. Few other countries in the West have so far shown such courage. But when Collomb says that the threat will continue for several more years, he is whistling in the dark. What does he think will happen in a few years? Does he think that in a few years, Muslims in France will be comfortably assimilated and will have forgotten all about the jihad imperative in the Qur’an and Sunnah? If so, he is encased in a fantasy world.
“2 attacks thwarted & 3 mosques closed in terrorism crackdown – French interior minister,” RT, February 25, 2018:
The French interior minister has revealed that authorities have thwarted two planned terrorist attacks since the start of the year. Several mosques have been also shut down over preaching radical ideas, according to the official.
The foiled assaults were aimed at the military and sports facilities, Gerard Collomb said in an interview with Europe 1 radio on Sunday.
The suspect plotting to attack sports facilities was a convert who wanted to make his way to Syria, Le Parisien and AFP reported citing inside sources. In the second case, the 33-year-old suspect from Nimes was planning to attack soldiers taking part in Operation Sentinelle, a military operation launched in January 2015 to guard sensitive targets from terrorist attacks. According to the General Directorate for Internal Security (DGSI), the man pledged allegiance to Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) in a video, while explosive materials were also found in his home.
Collomb added that although the suspects behind both plots are now in custody, the terrorist threat still exists and will continue for several more years….

I think not. This has every telltale sign of a ‘man on a white horse’ appearing with a final solution to the Muslim problem. I hate the thought of it.

Riiiiiight…it is Infidels who are poised to mass victimize Muslims. Try again…

Save Europe: It will never turn around, I see Europe becoming a caliphate in a few years with EU leaders on board. The masses will go along like they are now until they are ruled into slavery. Countries in E. Europe may later be invaded for resisting the takedown.
Save Europe says
I didn’t necessarily say it would turn around, but I do believe it will ‘kick off.’ At some point people will ‘snap’ after continuing Muslim terrorist atrocities. Of that, I’m fairly certain. When that starts, who knows how it will end….

J D S says
Closing mosques a good thing but thousands of more closings are needed…but that is not the root of the problem………islam
Itself is the problem and until governments address that…then the root problem will continue. How to combat the Islam problem? I don’t have a quick answer to that and I don’t think anyone has….but I do know this…it will take TIME and LAWS…..There are laws on the books that will help but new legislation will have to be passed to address the criminal elements in Islam. Now most will say, all of Islam is criminal, and they may be right but to pass legislation to completely outlaw Islam???Well how many elected officials are going to get their mindsets in that direction any time soon….So I think Islam will have to be taken down piecemeal it to get officials to even start
to attack this cancer in our societies…….We the people are going to have to make the first move…if necessary….camp out on our elected officials doorsteps and make them listen…….I if they won’t listen then we must replace them them at the ballot box. As I stated before it will take TIME…….Do we have that TIME? Doubtful!!!!! but with the help of almighty God and his power…we might. Pray if you know how and if you don’t …Learn!…..I think I have this backward….We need to seek God’s help FIRST!!!

This is a reminder of those heinous and murderous Muslim terrorists jihad massacres in Paris France on November 13, 2015 it should be make clear that those brutal and cruel Islamic murders happened ,in part, 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 during the night of November 13, 2015 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 France, 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.”
Walter Sieruk says
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.

Collomb needs to worry about immigration levels.

“Several mosques have been also shut down over preaching radical ideas”.
Memo to French Interior Ministry:
Those “radical ideas” are ordinary basic Islamic instruction.

“Those “radical ideas” are ordinary basic Islamic instruction”
Quite. And until the authorities grasp that nettle they will never, ever solve the Muslim problem.
How many mosques are there in France now? And they crow triumphantly about shutting three? It is like asking your oncologist to cut out just the three cancer cells at the top right of the rapidly-expanding tumour, as you are sure the others are all peaceful.
Having said which, I am certain the Western authorities are complicit in this whole thing: no-one, but no-one could be as stupid as they appear. This is just an exercise in kidology – “Look peasants, we are doing something!” Really?
mortimer says
Exactly… NORMAL ISLAMIC IDEAS… basic ORDINARY ISLAM. ISLAMIC TERRORISM. Not an aberration.
JIHAD TERRORISM IS NORMATIVE IN ISLAM. No ISLAM? Know peace.
Know Islam? No peace.

The terrorist threats will continue for several more years until France officially becomes the “Sharia Republic of Francistan”.
RCCA says
It is also good that the French are nationalistic and not as ashamed of the concept of national pride as are the neutered/virtue signaling Germans or as befuddled as the Swedes etc. The French have been dealing with the aftemath of colonialism for a long time but imo are not willing to surrender their homeland and their culture.
Of course we all know how politicians speak, “several years” means for the foreseeable future. I’m just glad that they are taking some bold action. It is somewhat ironic that the EU country most traditionally known for lacking masculinity is taking the strongest public stance. Apparently the Swedes have taken over the title of least masculine.

Terry Gain says
It is surprising that France may stand up to Islam before Britain, but I think Italy may be in the lead of west European nation’s coming to their senses about evil Islam. Germany and Sweden are hopeless.
thesailor says
I don’t think France is standing up to anything. This smells of a show trial – “Look! There are only a tiny minority of mosques and muslims causing trouble, and we have boldly dealt with them. You can all go back to sleep now, safe in the knowledge that, thanks to us, your society will improve dramatically as these lovely people steadily integrate and bring the joys of their culture to you.”
LeftisruiningCanada says
i lean towards Terry’s statement. My experience of France and the French gives me the impression that they are not in general afraid to say that France is for the French.
Their tolerance has limits which may be lower than other places at the moment.
Of course, my wish is that all European countries will quickly come to their senses and eject islam.
Peter says
Several more years? Yet more disinformation.
The Islamic imperialist totalitarian mission has been going on for almost 1,400 years. A French Interior Minister doesn’t have the power, if he even has the will, to roll it back.
That would require a concerted effort on the part of non-Muslims in the West and the Rest of the world.
laura ann says
If the French wanted these invaders with their crimes stopped, they would have voted in Ms LePen. EU leaders are puppets of the globalists promoting multiculturalism and destroying nationalism world wide.

France foils 2 jihad attacks, closes 3 mosques, Interior Minister says threat will continue “several more years”
………………………..
Glad to hear about the foiled Jihad terror attacks and the closed mosques–as for this continuing “several more years”, that’s likely to be a whole lotta years, given that the Muslim population in France is approaching 10% now.
Matthieu Baudin says
“… Few other countries in the West have so far shown such courage [as to close those Mosques encouraging violence]… ”
If Mr Macron wishes to discard the ‘pin-up boy’ image entirely and evolve into a European leader that the masses can readily trust and respect then he needs to squarely confront the clitoral castration (FGM) of young girls in France that continues week in week out – perhaps nightly. I feel sure that if Mr Macron was father to a young daughter he would go out of his way to keep her from harms way; and now as President he should extend this essential decency and respect for young women and girls to care for citizens at large. Prosecutions are long overdue for this insidious violent crime against children and a President who sits on his hands is out of touch with the yearnings of modern civilised peoples.
MFritz says
Nice show. Because as soon as serious riots begin French politics and police will back down – once again – and nothing will change in the end.
underbed cat says
I think closing 3 mosques is a huge step, a good start, he is brave with common sense and trying to protect France. There will be complaints, nothing new but the public has a dangerous ideology that is driven by commands for the pious and it should be explained to the public exactly what the commands mean so he must be strong and get support. He will need options a plan to educate France what the threats mean if the doctrine is followed and rid this problem with tickets to Islamic majority countries if they want to continue with sharia.It has to be understood that deception was used and the emigration was planned to subvert. In my opinion, the closing of mosques is a first step along with building their military.
Gjallarhornet says
I agree most with you in this comment section. He comes across as a man part of a powerful group – with plans. He does not seem intent on stopping. Sure, other ministers, most of them probably, outside of his circle will continue with their gibberish, but I doubt that this guy will be affected by that. This is, in my opinion, at very encouraging sign, the words he has given us.

Well 3 is better than 0 so I’m inclined to call this a win. I’ll be waiting for the next batch next week. 😛

MUSLIM TERRORISTS TOPPED MASS SHOOTINGS IN 2 OUT OF 3 YEARS
Muslims are less than 1% of the United States population, but 33% of major mass shootings.
February 26, 2018 by Daniel Greenfield
https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/269382/muslim-terrorists-topped-mass-shootings-2-out-3-daniel-greenfield
Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical left and Islamic terrorism.
Turn on CNN and you get the impression that mass shootings are mainly carried out by mentally unstable teenagers with assault rifles in high schools. But the data points to a very different picture.
In the last 5 years, five major mass shootings were carried out using AR-15 or similar rifles.
The perpetrators of the Parkland school massacre, the Las Vegas massacre and the Texas First Baptist Church massacre were Americans. Muslim terrorists however were responsible for the mass shootings at the Pulse nightclub and in San Bernardino. While the Vegas shooter was responsible for the deadliest attack last year, the deadliest attacks of 2015 and 2016 were both carried out by Muslim terrorists.
Two of the last three years were dominated by mass shootings carried out by Muslim terrorists.
In the last decade, there were only 10 major mass shootings where the death toll went into the double digits. Three of those were carried out by Muslim terrorists. That’s all the more remarkable since Muslims make up less than 1% of the United States population, but account for 33% of major mass shootings. Proportional to their representation in the population, Muslims are responsible for far more mass shootings than Americans.
The trend is worrisome.
