Jihad Watch

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

France foils ‘at least 6’ jihad attacks in recent months, threat remains high

Sep 4, 2020 1:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

Back in January, the French internal security service also found “that as many as 150 neighbourhoods across France are ‘held’ by Islamist radicals.” Guns were taken away from seven Paris police officers last October over fears that Islamic radicalization had infiltrated the police force, after a Muslim officer stabbed four of his colleagues to death.

To stop the spread of jihad, France first needs to reassert control over its borders, and monitor what is being preached in mosques and at Islamic schools.

Meanwhile, the Islamic State has managed to infiltrate refugee streams into Europe. France is a globalist country which has tried to palm off its Muslim migrant problem on Britain, and like other Western countries, it has no idea what to do about the spread of the jihad doctrine. Surveillance of Islamic establishments is needed, which France would be likely unwilling to implement due to political correctness and the power that Islamic special interest groups now wield everywhere.

French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin has stated: “We will fight tirelessly… We will never give up relentlessly hunting down these enemies of the Republic.” So now as jihad activity increases, France’s efforts to stop that activity are hampered by its immigration and appeasement policies.

“France Has Foiled at Least Six Terror Attacks in Recent Months,” by Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart, September 2, 2020:

Jean-François Ricard, who heads the National Anti-Terrorism Prosecutor’s Office (Pnat) has said French security services have foiled at least six terror plots in recent months.

Ricard spoke to French media on Monday, stating that the terrorist threat, particularly from radical Islamic extremists, remains high in France. He said that several French members of Islamic State remain free in Syria or have crossed the border into Turkey.

He added that some French former members of the terror group have returned to France and “set up new structures”. He also warned that there was a threat from mentally unstable individuals who may be influenced by radical Islamic rhetoric and ideology, L’Opinion reports.

Currently, there are believed to be around 250 Islamic radical French men and women in custody along the Iraqi-Syrian border area and around 300 children. At least 170 adults have returned to France, and Mr Ricard said all were being tried or had been tried by French courts.

This week, French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin announced that over 8,100 individuals were now on the French terrorist watch list known as the Reporting Index for the Prevention of Terrorist Radicalisation (FSPRT).

During a visit to the headquarters of France’s domestic security agency, the Directorate General of Internal Security (DGSI), Darmanin said that radical Islamic terrorism still posed the biggest security threat to France.“The fight against Islamist terrorism is a high priority of the government,” Darmanin said and added: “We will fight tirelessly… We will never give up relentlessly hunting down these enemies of the Republic.”

    Ricard stated he, “warned that there was a threat from mentally unstable individuals who may be influenced by radical Islamic rhetoric and ideology.” Does this mean that being Islamic is a leading factor of being mentally deranged? If so, what is his answer to a solution? Maybe sending everyone of them back to the slime pit from which they emerged. Once again, I defy anyone to name any non-Islamic nation that has been enriched by these slugs. Not even the Saudis and other Islamic nations have taken them in.

    • Rod says

      Sep 5, 2020 at 5:07 am

      I’m aware of at least two non-Islamic nations which are very happy to have received a healthy injection of young, active ambitious Muslim immigrants to re-invigorate their ageing workforces. There must be more. It’s not rocket science, and not everybody on the planet are racists.

      Of course the nation most responsible for the floods of refugees now seeking new lives and homes is happy to look the other way.

      • Dawne says

        Sep 5, 2020 at 6:22 am

        Which countries are very happy with their injection of Muslim immigrants? I can’t think of any. so if you’re going to make statements like that then you need to back it up with specifics and facts.

        In the UK for example, in 2017 figures, only 20% of our Muslim immigrants were in work. Can’t say we in the UK are happy to be funding Mr Mohammed and his four wives/seventeen children from our hard earned taxes.

        • Rod says

          Sep 5, 2020 at 7:42 am

          So there are racists in the UK too.
          And by the way, Dawne, I don’t “need” to do anything, to please you or anyone else.

        • Rod says

          Sep 5, 2020 at 7:47 am

          Dawne, would widespread unemployment in the UK be the fault of Boris or Brexit or both?

        • gravenimage says

          Sep 5, 2020 at 10:05 pm

          So Muslims living off the ‘filthy Infidels’ is the fault of those Infidels? Of course it is…bad dhimmis!

        I’m aware of one so-called anti-fascist who supports the most fascist of all NGOs: Antifa. You must adopt Antifa opinions or else stay out of the streets when Antifa is there. Citations and statistics are not required when he makes claims of his own invention. Clue: his name is Rod.

      • Savvy Kafir says

        Sep 5, 2020 at 12:22 pm

        Rod — Islam is not a race, you idiot. It’s a violent, retrograde, misogynistic, imperialistic IDEOLOGY that promotes intense hatred of non-Muslims.

        You clearly don’t know the first thing about this subject, so your preaching to people here at Jihad Watch is absurd.

        • gravenimage says

          Sep 5, 2020 at 10:06 pm

          Oh, “Rod” knows all about this–he just hopes that we don’t.

        • A Landmesser says

          Sep 12, 2020 at 4:49 pm

          Rod is clearly either an Antifa moron seeking to destroy civilization or a Muslim. Either way I think he had a lobotomy.

      • Ray Jarman says

        Sep 5, 2020 at 1:40 pm

        In all of your rants, you have yet to name even one much less two non-Muslim nations that have become more prosperous as a result of the invasion.

      • gravenimage says

        Sep 5, 2020 at 10:04 pm

        Interesting that “Rod” posts three times here, but doesn’t bother to tell us which nations have been happy to have been overrun by violent, supremacist Muslims–in fact, he insists that he does not have to back up such ludicrous claims with any facts at all–not even citing these utopias.

        Of course, “Rod” *doesn’t* have to cite these places–nor does he have to be honest, rational, or in any way decent.

        Of course, his expecting good people to take his ludicrous claptrap at face value with nothing to back it up is a pretty vain hope.

        • Rod says

          Sep 6, 2020 at 2:22 am

          “expecting good people to take his ludicrous claptrap at face value with nothing to back it up is a pretty vain hope.”

          Best example I’ve seen (apart from the Pussy-grabber’s lies of course), is the one about “the Least Racist Society on Earth”.

          But some gullible people will believe anything.

        • CogitoErgoSum says

          Sep 6, 2020 at 2:27 am

          So, Rod, where is the least racist society on Earth today?

        • Rod says

          Sep 6, 2020 at 4:50 am

          where is the least racist society ?

          Anybody making such a claim, impossible to support with evidence, is providing incontrovertible evidence of stupidity and dishonesty. Has Spencer assessed racism in Iceland? Swaziland? Patagonia? Possibly, but I think not.
          But –
          Anybody making such a claim about the USA is, to be tactful, probably blind.

        • gravenimage says

          Sep 7, 2020 at 10:10 pm

          Note that “Rod” *still* won’t say which nations are supposedly thrilled at being overrun by violent Muslims…

      • A Landmesser says

        Sep 12, 2020 at 4:47 pm

        What happy and fortunate might those nations be? Islam changes civilized states to states that existed in the 13th century. May Canada be so blessed soon.

    • Savvy Kafir says

      Sep 5, 2020 at 1:05 pm

      Ray — You’re right. The only real solution to this mess is to deport every single Muslim from the West, and never make the mistake letting them come back. Eventually, every other “solution” will result in the total Islamization of Western nations, one after another. Islam is a cancer that must be cut out.

      • Rod says

        Sep 6, 2020 at 1:25 am

        Speaking of deporting – perhaps the Muslims of India, the East Indies, Nigeria, Algeria, Kenya,Egypt and dozens of other places should have deported “every single” rapacious, greedy, murderous Christian who invaded them, stole their lands and exported their resources, “and never made the mistake letting them come back.”
        But of course, there are different rules for Christians. As gravy says, Muslims have no right to “live off filthy infidels”. The Christian right to do so is God-given, and they did it for centuries. Still do in some places.

    “Islamist terrorism is a high priority” of France’s Internal Security.

    Can the Ministry show that “Islamist terrorism” is against the teachings of Islam, as they assume?
    Or has nobody looked?

    Have they even informed themselves of Islam’s agenda?

How can the French keep over 8000 people under observation and why should they have to? France cannot control her borders because she is not allowed to under EU law. The problem will persist and grow.

    “threat remains high” (in France). But what about in Trumpistan?

    From Center for Strategic and International Studies, Washington, DC.

    “The Escalating Terrorism Problem in the United States”
    CSIS Briefs
    June 17, 2020:

    “This analysis makes several arguments. First, far-right terrorism has significantly outpaced terrorism from other types of perpetrators, including from far-left networks and individuals inspired by the Islamic State and al-Qaeda. Right-wing attacks and plots account for the majority of all terrorist incidents in the United States since 1994, and the total number of right-wing attacks and plots has grown significantly during the past six years. Right-wing extremists perpetrated two thirds of the attacks and plots in the United States in 2019 and over 90 percent between January 1 and May 8, 2020. ”

    Sounds like the right-wing loonies are more active, and more dangerous, and maybe more loony, than the dreaded Muslims.

    • Giacomo Latta says

      Sep 5, 2020 at 12:26 pm

      Sounds like CSIS considers any act by white supremacists as terrorism but things like Palestinian would-be lawyers throwing Molotov cocktails at police and muslim Jew-hating doctors promising to give Jewish patients the wrong medication as mere pranksters. Perhaps because there was no plot to do so just a tsunami of typical Islamic hatred of everything non-Islamic work.
      Just curious, Antifaman, who was responsible for the 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center? Was it followers of Islam or was it Da Jooz? You, the PoliSci 101 man, should know.

    • Ray Jarman says

      Sep 5, 2020 at 1:51 pm

      Your rants seems to indicate that anything to the right of Marx and Lenin are considered far right extremists. To believe in the United States Constitution and the Declaration in which both declare that all men are created equal is considered far right extremism. I think that maybe you should return to a school room (if indeed you ever attended one) to learn about the Americans who have fought in numerous wars to preserve freedom for others and to be called a far right extremist is truly insulting. Try reading Thomas Paine’s “Common Sense” instead of “Das Capital.”

    • Savvy Kafir says

      Sep 5, 2020 at 1:35 pm

      Yep. It seems pretty obvious, doesn’t it?

      Allowing people who despise you and your culture to come and live among you and have lots of kids, and do their best to replace your society with one from the seventh century? That just might be a really bad idea. Especially if they tend to be violent savages.

      But, on the flip side…

      Just kidding! There is no flip side. It’s all bad. Allowing Muslims to live in the West is an obvious, suicidal, and unforgivable mistake. If we don’t fix it, we will be despised by future generations.

      • Rod says

        Sep 6, 2020 at 1:51 am

        “Allowing Muslims to live in the West is an obvious, suicidal, and unforgivable mistake.”

        I wonder whether any indigenous North Americans have ever regretted the “obvious, suicidal, and unforgivable mistake” of allowing Christians to live in their country? Sadly, there’s no flip side.

        However, no nasty foreigners should be allowed to live in Christian countries. Christians can invade, steal, plunder at will, and have done so with impunity in scores of Muslim lands, but heaven help any Muslim who expects anything in return.

    Rod in your earlier post you mentioned Kenya being a Muslim country I don’t understand how you reached that.Somalis who are cushites are said to be the early settlers in North Eastern Kenya and already there were Maasais and Dorobo who are nilotes and Akambas who are bantus who were already residing in Kenya.Kenya is a conglomerate of different ethnicities and to say that Muslims own Kenya is a big lie since they don’t make up even 10% of the population.

    • Rod says

      Sep 7, 2020 at 10:04 am

      Otis, I referred to the “Muslims……….of Kenya”. And as you’ve confirmed, they make up a small percentage of the population.

      So, what’s your problem? Might I suggest it’s English comprehension, difficulties with which seem to hamper many Jihadwatchers.

      “A Muslim country”? No, nobody said that.
      And, as I’m sure you know, Kenya, like scores of other countries, was colonised, its peoples were subjugated and their labour and resources were exploited by the British for 100 years. Christians do that. God’s work, some call it.
      But as for Muslims living in England – how dare they!

    • gravenimage says

      Sep 7, 2020 at 10:08 pm

        I don’t want to see *anyone* victimized by those trying to destroy civilized societies. Condemning Jihad violence is not “maligning folk” as “Rod” here pretends.
