Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

France: police afraid to report suspicious colleagues to avoid “Islamophobia” label

Oct 12, 2019 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

“French police are said to be reluctant to report the suspicious activity of Muslim colleagues over fears of being branded Islamophobic. Institutional failures in reporting possible extremist behaviour are in the spotlight in France after a Muslim convert working in a police support role killed four officers in Paris. Senior officers are under pressure to explain how a radicalised individual could continue to work inside the force without being identified, with unions representing rank-and-file officers demanding to know what is being done to tackle the issue of infiltration.”

Robert Spencer explains in FrontPage Magazine how this “radicalized individual,” Mickaël Harpon, was enabled:

If you utter the slightest word against Islamic jihad violence or any suspicion of any individual Muslim, you’ll be fired and publicly defamed as an “Islamophobe,” a “racist,” and a “bigot.”

It is this fear of being called “Islamophobic” that has also allowed Muslim rape gangs to continue destroying the lives of young girls in the UK. Recall Muslim MP Naz Shah’s retweet of a statement that the victims should “shut up for the good of diversity.”

The fear of being called “Islamophobic,” “racist,” “bigoted,” etc. merely for telling the truth about normative Islam is opening the door to the Islamization of the West and putting citizens at risk. Where did this fear originate? With Islamic supremacist lobbies who relentlessly beat down critics of Islam as a means to subvert of the House of War; and in the meantime, terror is cast into the hearts of disbelievers (Quran 8:60) as jihad violence continues. But those who have accepted dhimmitude are the ones who bear the real blame.

It isn’t only French police who are in neglect of duty over fears about being called “Islamophobic,” but all leaders of free nations who allow Islamic supremacists to run roughshod over citizens who tell the truth.

“French Police Afraid to Report Suspicious Colleagues Due to ‘Islamophobia’ Label,” by Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart, October 10, 2019:

French police are said to be reluctant to report the suspicious activity of Muslim colleagues over fears of being branded Islamophobic.

Institutional failures in reporting possible extremist behaviour are in the spotlight in France after a Muslim convert working in a police support role killed four officers in Paris. Senior officers are under pressure to explain how a radicalised individual could continue to work inside the force without being identified, with unions representing rank-and-file officers demanding to know what is being done to tackle the issue of infiltration.

French newspaper Le Parisien reports part of the problem stems from fear by officers that if they report Islamic radicalisation in their colleagues, they could be flagged as potential Islamophobes by their superiors.

A spokesman for a police union said in response to the issue that the government should be preparing to “fight against radicalization in the police” and that whistleblowers within the force raising suspicions about colleagues should receive legal cover to protect them.

“An investigation has been launched into a grudge the assailant may have held against his colleagues, but terrorism cannot be ruled out,” a source said following the Paris police station attack.

It has also been revealed that radicalised Islamic convert Mickaël Harpon possessed a top-secret security clearance and had full access to the police prefecture’s directorate of intelligence (DRPP).

It was also reported that he had a USB stick in his possession that contained both Islamic State propaganda and the personal details of dozens of police officers. Investigators found the USB stick in his apartment shortly after the attack took place….

    “….inspector clueso is on the case….”

    Inspecteur Clouseau: “I suspect everyone – and I suspect no one…” – sadly, what was a joke years ago about the ineptitude of a fictional French official has become the truth today.

    In Canada the Trudeau government is exactly the same. They passed the motion m-103 that is focussed on Islamophobia. Trudeau is pushing it by calling anyone who says anything about Islam a racist.

    The only ones who Trudeau ignores are his chosen province of Quebec which just passed a bill banning all religious symbols including face coverings for public employees. He has not said a word about that.

    Trudeau’s government is filled with Muslim Brotherhood supporters and Islamists who are trying to create exactly the same fear among our own people as that experienced in France and the rest of Europe regarding Islamophobia.

      100% true. I still can’t figure out why so many claim that having a justified fear of Islam is such a bad thing.

      Islamophobia – a genuine, justified and valid fear of being run over by a truck or being stabbed with a knife.

      Where there is violence there is likely Islam. Where there is Islam there IS violence.

    So the fear…the real fear…of the label of islam o phobia…kills.

    It looks like the new guy on the force…the one who was only there a week when he had to shoot a mass murderer to end the killing spree…is the only one who didn’t have the real fear of being labeled with the fake ‘islam o phobia’ and was able to bring the killing to an end.

    There was a guy who said, “The only thing we have to fear, is fear itself.”

    And the Bible says at Proverbs 29, ” The fear of man lays a snare ”
    The word for snare can mean the lure or bait that leads to a trap or it can refer to the trap (bing)

    Coining the word “islam o phobia” by the oic and its usage world wide by moslims and those who are helping them in their bid to take over the world and rule it by their unlawful, lawless code of evil….is a
    TRAP.
    moslims use this word…a phobia of their evil beast…to lay a snare or trap so that non moslims fall into it and cease to protect themselves from capture. And that “capture” is deadly…direct murder or the slow agonizing death of enslavement to their fake ‘god,’ satan the devil and his willing slaves, those imitating the demon.

    Here’s the irony: it is considered bigoted by LEFTARDS to denounce Islamic bigotry against the dirty KUFAAR whom Muslims are required to hate ‘for the sake of Allah’.

    Leftards have given Islam the right to have a lower standard of conduct on nearly all bad behavior.

    Leftards practice the racism of lower expectations.

    As far as I know “Islamophobia” is not an offense in France.

    And if their superiors happen to share Harpon’s views…
