This revelation demonstrates how deformed the public discourse has become all over the West. These foiled attacks are by jihadis; Castaner doesn’t say that, but there is no doubt of its truth. France is not plagued by violent “right-wing extremists.” But discussion of terrorism all over the free world centers today on those “right-wing extremists,” who actually pose a minuscule threat that authorities are doing all they can to exaggerate. Meanwhile, discussion of Islamic jihad terrorism focuses not on how to understand and counter the jihad ideology, but on “Islamophobia” and on how terrible the people are who call attention to this threat. All right. One can’t play with fire forever, however. One day, after all the foes of jihad terror have been silenced as “bigots” and “racists” and “Islamophobes,” those who have been doing the silencing will discover that there really was a jihad threat after all. Of course, the way the Leftist elites are behaving now, they may welcome that discovery.
“French intelligence services thwart ‘9-11-style terror attack,’” by Matt Drake, Independent, October 18, 2019:
A terror plot inspired by the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Centre in New York has been foiled by the French intelligence services.
One person is being held in custody in France on preliminary terrorism charges after apparently planning a September 11-style plane hijacking and attack.
According to French paper Le Parisien, the suspect was looking for a weapon to hijack a plane.
Interior Minister Christophe Castaner said on France-2 television on Thursday night that the person was arrested on 26 September while “in the process of planning” such an attack.
He provided no further details but said it was the 60th time French authorities have thwarted a potential attack since 2013.
Mr Castaner said: “An individual who wanted to draw inspiration from 9/11 and planes that destroyed the towers of the World Trade Centre was stopped by our services.
“It was his project, he was organising himself like this and our services have done the necessary to get him arrested.”
In a tweet, he added: “60 attacks have been foiled since 2013 and every week people are arrested….

He doesn’t mention islam and the general public will not connect with islam. They connect islam only with beautiful, peaceful people who are subjugated. It won’t end well.
Tom says
The admission that 60 attacks have been foiled since 2013 and that people are arrested every week is at least a step forward for the French.
While they did not mention a connection between the planned 9/11 attack plan, the 60 foiled plots, the weekly arrests, and Islam, neither did they attempt to lay the blame on “right wing extremists” which is telling.
In openly divulging this information to the public the French have taken a huge step forward toward admitting they have a problem with terrorism. The next step will be to identify exactly where this threat is originating from.
It will come out that Islamic terror is the threat to France.

France has the scholars needed to deprogram Muslims out of Islam. This is an emergency for France and for the entire planet. We have to convince Muslims the Koran is of human origin.
Lydia Church says
Uh, correction…. satanic origin.
Minor omission of course…
Del says
You would have as much success convincing civilized people that Islam is peaceful. It is a cult of hate and violence.
Angemon says
Almost as if you have a serious problem in hand…

If Im not mistaken thats a lot more attacks than France systained from Nazi irregulars from 1933 until 1939. Famous French saying regarding the possibility of war, from the spring of 1939: En fin, la morale c-est bon. Pardon typos, I cant edit or apostrophise.

It’s time for…. an ITYS moment:
Way back around early 2014 or so I recall Tony Blair and some other big wigs, I think in Australia, talking against ‘right wing extremism’ and painting it as the big boogie man enemy. It hit me back then that this would be a ‘thing’ used by the globalists to target us. We didn’t hear too much about it for years… until now it has popped its ugly head back out of the swamp again and is an exploding propaganda tool to rally hatred against us from every side for not supporting their agendas, for being conservative, etc.
I knew it would happen and I warned about it back then.
ITYS= I told you so…
; D
It’s all gonna come to pass.
Lydia Church says
I also must add that…. through end times Bible prophecy and similar means I know what is coming.
At times it may appear that I am almost looking forward to it and embracing the inevitable apocalyptic events with glee. The thing is, many bad things will happen, but for a good cause. For one thing, God’s judgment will fall on those who deserve it, and yes, that is a good thing. Then, even though Christians will be persecuted, we are identified with Christ and with His crown of thorns as well as His crown of glory. So many unspeakable things of treasures in heavenly places befall those who suffer in this way and as the Bible says, the glory outweighs the suffering. There is no comparing to earthly ‘glory,’ to gold and silver and materialism or power, nothing in this world can compare. For those who truly have a relationship with the Lord and are at the receiving end of spiritual blessings, you know what I am talking about. Another thing is how Jesus Himself refers to this time as ‘birth pangs’. And we see it all around us, the tension, the pressure, the upheaval, the unrest, just this mounting tension like a volcano about to erupt seems to be all over the planet, and it comes in waves like contractions and is increasingly intense. Do you feel this too? It’s hard not to these days. Crazy stock markets, civil unrest, antisemitism, hatred towards Christians, sin being glamorized, you name it. Well the good news is that birth pangs lead to a baby. And Jesus compared this terrible time of pain to a woman giving birth to the Kingdom age, as Jesus returns and restores paradise and all that good stuff, and what could be better than that?
The sunrise after the long night.
The dawning of Spring after the winter snow.
The sunshine after the storm.
THAT is what I am looking forward to!
And there is no other way to get there other than through.

france is a goner .. so also uk. sweden germany holland

But don’t forget the MSM/NWO/EU/UN narrative that the majority of attacks are from Right Wing Groups.
