France: Muslim rapper with “Jihad” album to perform at site of jihad massacre

Jun 11, 2018 10:01 am By Robert Spencer

“For Laurent Wauquiez, the president of the Republicans, this announcement is a ‘sacrilege for the victims, a dishonor for France.'”

Yes.

“The rapper Medina’s concert at Bataclan is controversial,” translated from “Le concert du rappeur Médine au Bataclan fait polémique,” Le Figaro, June 11, 2018 (thanks to David):

The rapper Medina’s concerts at the Bataclan have triggered controversy

VIDEO – Right-wingers and right-wing politicians find the rapper’s lyrics provocative. His album is called Jihad. The politicians promised to do everything possible to prevent the concert from taking place in the Bataclan in October.

Since the announcement of a concert by Medina in the Bataclan, Paris, the controversy has grown. Elected officials from LaREM, LR and Rassemblement national (ex-FN) protested Sunday against the show, which is scheduled for October…The rapper sparked a controversy in 2015 with the song Don’t Laïk, published a week before the attack against Charlie Hebdo. On the Twitter social network on Sunday, the #Bataclan and #Medina hashtags have been widely used. A petition launched on exchange.org by Grégory Roose, former departmental delegate of the FN in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, was signed Sunday by 8,600 people.

The cause of this revolt: the rapper’s words. In 2015, in his song Don’t Laïk, he declared: “Let’s crucify secularists as in Golgotha ​​/ Polygamy is better than the friend Strauss-Kahn” and “I put fatwas on the heads of the idiots.” Medina is also the author of an album entitled “Jihad, the biggest struggle is against oneself…”(2005).

“Sacrilege for the victims”

Many elected officials find it abhorrent to let the rapper play in the room where 90 people lost their lives during the terrorist attacks of November 13, 2015. In a tweet, Marine Le Pen exclaimed: “No French people can accept that this guy goes to dump his crap on the very place of the carnage of Bataclan. Complacency or, worse, incitement to Islamist fundamentalism, that’s enough!”

For Laurent Wauquiez, the president of the Republicans, this announcement is a “sacrilege for the victims, a dishonor for France.” The LR deputy of the Alpes-Maritimes Éric Ciotti said for his part that “the rapper’s being scheduled at Bataclan is an unbearable insult to the memory of the victims of November 13, 2015.” He asked Emmanuel Macron to ban the concert because “there are symbols that can not be desecrated.”…

    What kind of idiots own and operate the Bataclan? What is next – selling the Bataclan as a new Mosque?

    Where is Siddiq Khan in this controversy?

    This jihadist rapper performing at Bataclan is similar to a neo-Nazi performing at the site of a Nazi massacre.

    Laurent Wauqiez got it right: a “sacrilege for the victims, a dishonor for France.”

    The owners of Bataclan can just say, ‘NO CONCERT… the rapper’s message is one we cannot endorse, considering what happened at Bataclan a short time ago.”

      One could get the impression that life is now cheap in Paris.

      Loved Paris twice; never going back. The videos of moped robbery, aftermath of knifings, demonstrations by jihadist sympathizers, taharrush, and mass shootings/bombings will all be available online at a safe distance.

      One of the musicians who was playing there the night of the massacre believes that some of the security staff were in cahoots with the killer.

        I have heard this. Hmmm. Surely it was investigated, right?

        • Flavius Claudius Iulianus says

          Jun 12, 2018 at 1:11 am

          No. From what I remember, the Bataclan cancelled their upcoming gig because of it. He was dismissed as a crackpot on this side of the pond.

    THAT is blasphemy. Not drawing mohammed or pokin’ fun of islam – those are just healthy activities. But a jihadi artist at that site? It’s a sacrilege.

    Classic Islam. Outraged by everything and ashamed of nothing.

    Kind of like burning the Quran. But white, non-Muslim lives don’t matter.

    “Jihad, the biggest struggle is against oneself”,

    so then why the huge SWORD on his T-shirt ?
    is the “struggle” about whether to behead kaffirs today or not ?

    that show, if it happens, needs to be Recorded !
    so there is evidence of incitement to JIHAD,
    since it’s very likely there will be.
    i hope someone there is on that.

      My thoughts exactly. The sword on many Muslim national flags does not mean “Peace”. Iran’s thug leaders have 2 upon their flag – not to be outdone by those Sunni “apostates”.

      • Darryl Kerney says

        Jun 11, 2018 at 7:51 pm

        and his name is Medina,
        the “holy city” where muhammad became a warlord and took over,
        enslaving those who had helped him earlier on….

  7. DragarOz says

    Jun 11, 2018 at 8:07 pm

    So we have a rapper called Medina in France and released an album called Jihad. and in the UK… we lock people up for speaking out against Islam.
    No guess where this is all heading, or beheading. excuse the pun.

    • LeftisruiningCanada says

      Jun 11, 2018 at 9:45 pm

      Indeed.

      Those French and Brits be headed for trouble.

  8. Flavius Claudius Iulianus says

    This is a long standing tradition in Mohammadism: raising a monument (usually a mosque) at the site of a “victory.”

    Another example, the attempt to put a mosque at or near ‘ground zero’ in NY.

  9. Donovan Nuera says

    Jun 11, 2018 at 9:35 pm

    Maybe he can do a duets with James Taylor and Lily Allen??

    • LeftisruiningCanada says

      Jun 11, 2018 at 9:41 pm

      He could probably go and stay at her massive house since she never did invite any economic migrants to go live there with her.

  10. LeftisruiningCanada says

    Jun 11, 2018 at 9:43 pm

    He’ll probably open the show with surah al fatiha and a victorious call for takbir.

    Recently in the news was the announcement of the death of the person called, “grandfather of rap.”

    He was a moslim in his 70’s and had also done “hip-hop.” He was said to be basically the one who began rap.

    Never have understood why so many like the filthy language of much, if not all, of the “songs.” It isn’t music. And a lot of it is about the commission of crimes of murder and rape.

    This rapping about his filthy code of evil behavior at a place where many died at the hands of moslims is the same as when they slaughter church members and take over the property. It’s what they do. It’s a celebration of their murdering conquest.

      Rappers are holding back their brothers.

      There was an interview, recently, where Steve Harvey interviewed professional black women who said they could not find husbands. As the interview went through the regular questions like “does he need to make more money”, etc, it became obvious that neither Harvey nor the women recognized why they would not date most of the available men: LANGUAGE.

      The women all speak correct English and know full well that if they marry a man who speaks street language, he is not likely to be a good language model for their children and also know from experience that language is the most important key to economic opportunity.

    Absolutely sickening quite frankly. I’m ashamed that Sting is English and sung ‘inshallah’ at a concert in the Bataclan.

  13. Linda Goudsmit says

    The headline, “France: Muslim rapper with ‘Jihad’ album to perform at site of jihad massacre” is a declaration of Islamic dominance in France. There is no multiculturalism in Islam – only submission. The French have surrendered.

  14. Giacomo Latta says

    Jun 12, 2018 at 10:15 am

    Macron’s view of Islam? If it happens in France then it belongs to him. So let’s see what the new head of Islam in France is going to do about it.

    • LeftisruiningCanada says

      Jun 12, 2018 at 3:35 pm

      Pretty sure he looks up to it

    Boycott the Batachlan….. and anyone who uses it if they don’t stop this nut case from performing.
