“‘Nothing at this stage shows signs of a terrorist nature in these assaults,’ the sources said, adding that the attacker had targeted ‘strangers in the street.'”
In a sane society, a Muslim migrant stabbing strangers in the street would be taken as a sign “of a terrorist nature in these assaults.” Why? Because the Islamic State issued this call in September 2014:
So O muwahhid, do not let this battle pass you by wherever you may be. You must strike the soldiers, patrons, and troops of the tawaghit. Strike their police, security, and intelligence members, as well as their treacherous agents. Destroy their beds. Embitter their lives for them and busy them with themselves. If you can kill a disbelieving American or European — especially the spiteful and filthy French — or an Australian, or a Canadian, or any other disbeliever from the disbelievers waging war, including the citizens of the countries that entered into a coalition against the Islamic State, then rely upon Allah, and kill him in any manner or way however it may be….If you are not able to find an IED or a bullet, then single out the disbelieving American, Frenchman, or any of their allies. Smash his head with a rock, or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car, or throw him down from a high place, or choke him, or poison him….
But France today is not a sane society.
“Paris knife attack: Two British tourists among seven wounded,” Telegraph, September 10, 2018:
Seven people including two British tourists were wounded Sunday in Paris after they were attacked by a man armed with a knife and an iron bar, according to police and other sources.
A source close to the inquiry said the suspect has been arrested and is believed to be an Afghan national.
“Nothing at this stage shows signs of a terrorist nature in these assaults,” the sources said, adding that the attacker had targeted “strangers in the street”.
Of the seven wounded, four are in a critical condition, police said….
The incident took place just after 11:00pm (2100 GMT) on the banks of a canal in the northeast of the capital.
A security guard at one of two cinemas on either side of the Canal de l’Ourcq said he saw a man who had already assaulted people being chased by two other men who tried to stop him.
“He had an iron bar in his hand which he threw at the men chasing him, then he took out a knife,” he said….

ALL killings done by muslims is terroristic and they are ALL terrorists as they believe totally opposite to decent people! WHEN is the world going to wake up to the fact those people must be sent back to their own country and made to stay there if they insist on living like savages with that idiotic, totalitarian government, islamic nonsense of theirs! They can believe that way in their own country, but NOT in the rest of the word that does not live as crazy as they do!
WAKE UP!
Max Richard says
I agree, but the point is: Muslims in non muslim countries have a duty, read the Koran! We are dhimmis and we are very stupid. Muslim, doing their duties are no terrorists, they are obeying the duties as Muslims.

We must be strict, that means Islam is completely forbidden in our country. – No stupid Christian compassion!
mortimer says
Nothing to see? Let him who has eyes to see … but the BLIND French detectives are unread and unstudied in the Islamic source texts so they cannot see the clues.
Main point: THE FRENCH ARE ALREADY A PRIME TARGET OF THE JIHADISTS! Why? Because the very word ‘FRANK’ or ‘FRANC’ is synonymous with the word ‘CRUSADER’ in the minds of the JIHADISTS.
All Frenchmen and women are muddled together as ‘CRUSADERS’ and share a COLLECTIVE GUILT in the minds of the JIHADISTS. They all deserve extermination collectively and indiscriminately.
The French detectives have been instructed by their political bosses about what to say.
IT’S A SNOW JOB. They are conning the public.
mortimer says
The terrorists are trying to SABOTAGE the very lucrative French tourism trade. That is why they are attacking TOURISTS.

The implied message (and the excuse for it) seems to be “We only wish to kindly reassure citizens that it’s not the prelude to a BIG, organized assault by vague “TERRORIST” groups. It’s just a (soon-to-be proverbial) KRAZY KAOTIC KOOK – so DON’T ACT UP, get off our backs, and just numbly accept the death count and await the surefire sanity of the mysterious unfolding future like good, trusting boys, girls, and soon-to-be globalist serfs.”
The real message is “We wish to minimize and ignore SELF-APPOINTED JIHADISTS (who incidentally are not MYSTERIOUS “terrorists” but are SPECIFICALLY “jihadists” who eagerly enact the destructive creed and instructions disseminated per the candid side of Islam’s face)…despite your growing DEATH COUNT we prefer to depict these as anomalous actions by KRAZY KAOTIC KOOKS who may not even be attached or acceptable to the “Religion” of Peace at all!!! Meanwhile, as your leaders, we shall pose a moment to industriously do our part by picking up the scraps, calming the public, remaining in denial, and scratching our heads thoughtfully.”

“Kook” is an English word that means “one whose ideas or actions are eccentric, fantastic, or insane”:

The French government has lost all common sense! The have allowed their national sovereignty and

You have created your own worst nightmare! I pray you come to your senses soon. Or elect leaders
that want to protect France and protect your culture and borders !
You will need more than a fence around the Eiffel Tower to save France!!
KWJ says
No they’re not stupid, at least not the leaders, which makes them worse. It’s pretty hard for a top politician to be this stupid. They gave an agenda, and that agenda doesn’t really care if citizens get raped or killed. That is obvious by what they don’t say or report.

Of course, it would nice to think that there really is a gratifyingly simple solution to getting rid of monsters – as in “The Day Of The Triffids.” – (in which the gorgeous Janette Scott and her partner discover that triffids are surprisingly soluble in sea-water….) – but I doubt that we’re going to find that these “volatile” extremists really do evaporate at room temperature….

If that happened to me I would sue the country! If in Europe, I’d sue the EU. The only reason I say that is because the counrty forced us to take them in. We the people repeatedly Warned the state that we weren’t safe – and then the laxidacicle way these terror attacks (stabbings) were handled.

See, more KNIFE VIOLENCE. These evil, space alien knives are forcing innocent and peace loving people to start randomly (or not so randomly) stabbing and slashing people.
I say, ban all knives. You can use razor blades to cut things up. Oh wait, those are used in box cutters and we see how those get violent streaks too. Oh, I know, let’s teach people how to use hammers to make food into smaller and easier to eat morsels. Of course, that might raise hell with your fine china, but that may be a small price to pay. Or, use metal plates! Or Paper plates!
Gee, I wonder how long before we need to ban hammers.

Obviously the French media will be castigating the NKA(National Knife Association) for promoting the use of knives, and therefor responsible for this tragedy. They will assure the French citizens that the epidemic of “insane” Muslims stabbing unbelievers is completely caused by the “mystical aura” of knives.

In the video Farmlands there’s a Paint Ball shop owner who discusses how she now often sells Paintball guns to unprotected South African farmers (who have a very difficult time getting a gun and now the gvm. won’t allow them to band together for self-protection).
This idea possibly came from Chechnya where magnanimous Islamists were “kindly” using them to straighten up un-hijabbed muslimas and make them toe the party line.

We don’t need to ban knives. We just need to ban muslims, like Hungary has.
By the way, when the police make comments like they have, it makes them look exceptionally stupid or most likely deceptive, and they surely know they are not fooling anybody by trying to cover up this obvious Islamic terrorist attack.

Ann Marie says
Europe has become numb to terrorism. These individual terror attacks are happening so frequently and are inflicting harm on a small number of people, they’re downgraded to an ‘incident’ and not a major terror attack.
However, that’s not how Muslims see it..Each of those attacks is a justified action, in the name of Allah..No matter how small; if one person dies in the name of Allah: they’re fulfilling their mission as a good muslim.
Baucent says
Blind madness runs free in Europe. And I’m talking about the Police who can’t see the obvious or join the dots. A migrant muslim attacks random people with a knife and the Police can’t imagine a terrorism angle. How about starting with the assumption it IS terrorism and then test that hypothesis to see if the evidence backs it up? But the authorities want to maintain this fog of denying the obvious as they are scared the public will say enough. The mythical “community cohesion” must be maintained at all cost.
Michael Copeland says
Denial is part of cowardice.
Lavéritétriomphera says
They don’t deny, they don’t know, and they don’t wish the Islamic state to claim the responsibility for these attacks.
James Lincoln says
Agree 100% that these attacks should be assumed to be Islamic terrorist attacks unless absolutely proven otherwise.
StellaSaidSo says
I agree, James. There is ample evidence to support exactly that position.
James says
How does one overcome intentionally-chosen refusal to face facts, and to live a lie ?
James Lincoln says
The “denial” may actually be the first stage of grief in dealing with Islamic terrorist attacks.
Denial
Anger
Bargaining
Depression
Acceptance
If you look at Western Europe today, most of the people there are in some stage of grief.
Hopefully something will be done before the acceptance stage.
Lorensacho says
The definition of terrorism is an act that terrorizes people. In other words an act that makes people afraid for their safety. A guy running around stabbing people is such an act. Maybe the authorities are reluctant to associate this act with radical Islam although it undoubtedly is in order to refrain from smearing the reputation of a minority all of whom cannot be terrorists. One can only hope that authorities are doing all they can to stop further acts of terrorism including educating these people.
Lavéritétriomphera says
The autorties reported what the police said and that is it.

Maran says
I remember an old joke which translates quite well.
A woman had married a rich man. A few years after the marriage, when he was asleep, she attacked him with a hammer. Half way through bashing his head in she asked, “Paul, do you know me.” (She was trying to assess how successful so far her murderous attempt was.)
He replied, “No, but I’m getting to know you.”
See any similarities?

Just playing with semantics.
He may or may not be part of some larger agenda. He may be acting, in his mind, on behalf of allah. It may simply be a cultural thing in that this may be the “normal” actions of someone raised in the violent sesspool that is Afghanistan. He may just be a frustrated antisocial nut case. It could be a combination of more than one of these things.
If it isn’t part of an organized something-or-other it doesn’t matter.
When you bring in an overwhelming number of immigrants (who see you and your country as the enemy) from backward violent countries and arm them with an air of entitlement you are begging for trouble.
If you create little communities (often called “no-go zones”) of Iraqis, Afghanis, Somalis, or whatever those little communities are miniature Iraqs, Afghanistans and Somalias and the residents will act like it.
Why wouldn’t they? It’s all they know.
This isn’t rocket science.

Does anyone know why Western countries are wasting time, goodwill, and money on enemies, ingrates, or the cowardly and apathetic?

Too many vicious fools in the world and they could reap the whirlwind.

“These are not the ‘Droids we’re looking for. . . Move along. . .
The latter uses the power of the “Force” where as the former Paris police have marching orders to implement an Orweillian society. “War is Peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.”
Whose orders? My guess is Corporations – the ones who care little about the Western based values being supplanted by Islam. They only know babies grow to be Consumers and therefore have found new friends. Who cares if a few indigenous perish along the way. Let’s have another meaningless tribute to”the fallen”. And by the way, make no mention of any associated “religion”, you Islamophobe, you. Pols love ’em! More to attend political rallies and vote!! Main Stream Media – well they can’t say anything against their Corporate sponsors of toothpaste, steel belted radials, iPhones or cars!

Ed…I think you’ve hit on the main consensus – but what happens after ill-chosen bloodsuckers drain our social safety nets? Will we all be forced to drop constructive Christian values in order to scavenge what’s left from the drained bodies scattered about our once great beacon of a country and culture? Are the “amoral” elites just pragmatically “mopping up” the floor before the inevitable collapse? Will they have moats around their castle fortresses to keep them safe forever – or do they just philosophize “life is short and it will be someone else’s problem”?
Why do I picture George Soros lifting a beer in salute?
Ed says
Hi Carol,
It’s frustrating to see this so called “religion” having advanced tremendously over the last 30 year timeframe due to Islam’s tireless work and others misconceptions regarding its ideology. Reading between the lines of Robert’s book, it’s an interesting study of how to make up a religion on the fly (by stealing concepts from Judaism and Christianity) to convince a weak minded, (perhaps resultant from a shallow gene pool) set of people to follow along with a dysfunctional person’s agenda.
Unfortunately today, the monetary emphasis has contrived a system where there is no turning back by arguing culture or morals.
I’m starting to believe in Martin Armstrong’s assertions that globally, we are facing world scale changes to counter establishment’s contrived pseudo culture.
I’m starting to question the need to keep a birth rate above 2.3 children in order for a country to supposedly survive. Survive for what? Opportunistic gains for some higher eschelon at the expense of societal chaos shouldered by those living outside of gated communities?
A person should be able to use societal statistics to prove crime, joblessness, mental health, etc. will result, but more to the point for this money preoccupied culture, the relative monetary cost or reduction of GNP that will result. Who will miraculously pay for all?
Maybe too much belief in God, but definitely too much in The Tooth Fairy or the Easter Bunny if you ask me. And far too many “useful Liberals” wanting to save humanity.
