France: Muslim migrant gets 28 years for hammer attack on police at Notre Dame Cathedral

Oct 17, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 12 Comments

Despite the regular stream of violent jihadist incidents in the West and worldwide, too many Westerners refuse to call out the supremacist hate and violence among all too many Muslims; instead, they obsess about “white supremacism” and long-past “colonialism.”

“Paris court jails man for 28 years for 2017 hammer attack at Notre Dame Cathedral,” Associated Press, October 14, 2020:

PARIS — A Paris court on Wednesday jailed an Algerian man for 28 years after convicting him of attempted terrorist murder for attacking police guarding Notre Dame Cathedral with a hammer in 2017, crying: “This is for Syria!”

The assault by Farid Ikken, now 43, ioutside one of France’s most-visited monuments came after a string of Islamic extremist attacks around France in 2015-2016, and was among multiple violent acts targeting security forces.

In the Notre Dame incident, one police officer was lightly injured, and Ikken — a former doctoral student — was shot and wounded by officers. At least 600 people were trapped inside the 12th century cathedral while police secured the surrounding streets and combed the pews.

    “This is for Syria”? Iran is in Syria. Turkey is in Syria. Russia is in Syria. Hezbollah is in Syria. But France is not in Syria. What can this Farid Ikken be thinking of?

    And now the French taxpayer is on the hook for 28 years for the care and feeding of this Believer, as he conducts Da’wa among other prisoners, some of whom, upon their release, may do just as the Qur’an instructs them, to fight, and to kill, and to strike at the necks of, and to strike terror in the hearts of, the Infidels.

      As I have said many times, capital punishment is a lot cheaper and prevents recidivism. If this had happened in the UK, the jail time would have been much less and then that time would have been divided by half.

      Maybe the prisons in the West should help these sub-humans commit suicide as the Germans did with the Baader-Meinhof terrorist gang members.

      … his Believer, as he conducts Da’wa among other prisoners, some of whom, upon their release, may do just as the Qur’an instructs them, to fight, and to kill, and to strike at the necks of, and to strike terror in the hearts of, the Infidels.

      Holy Prophet Mohammed unleashed a perpetual motion machine, an organic thing seemingly as unstoppable as the Blob. They get prison, that’s time for Dawa. They get killed, that’s time for Martyrdom. There’s no stopping the Cause, as the Holy Prophet called it, that being =total world takeover and global Sharia.

      Their competitors in the world takeover business, the Communists, aren’t nearly as fearsome. Sure, the Commies have their victories, most recently the nouveau Commie and future president Joe Biden calling for Jihad. That’s the communist edge, they get paid. But the Moslems are so motivated they don’t even care about getting paid, at least not until they get the Throne up there in Jannat with a writhing pile of houries and hidden pearls.

    Well explained in this jihadwatch article when it made known that “Despite the regular stream of violent jihadist incidents in the West and worldwide, too many Westerners refuse to call out the supremacist hate and violence among all too many Muslims…”

    What that 2017 violent and malicious jihad attack against those police officers at Notre Dame Cathedral in Pars France is one of may vicious jihadist or jihadists attacks in Western nations.

    Be those Muslim terrorists in the city of Paris, Nice Stockholm, London, Manchester Brussels , Berlin ,Madrid .all those Islamic terror attack are very destructive harmful and sadly many times also murderous

    Those jihad-minded Muslim terrorists who engage in those vicious Islamic terror attacks cannot be and will not be reasoned with. They will not respond to either logic or reason. They aren’t interested, at all, in reason or logic. So they have to be dealt with by a strong force of might. Either by the police or the military. For to even try to reason with a jihad-minded Muslim terrorist is just as much an act of futility as trying to teach algebra to a rabbit.

    This man should have to do hard labor during incarcerations to off set the cost of his imprisonment, as should all criminals. The problem with jail time is it cost more per year than the average family income of the citizens we are trying to protect. Violent crimes should receive the death sentence without the years of appeals that cost the tax payer hundreds of thousands of dollars.
    This idea that everyone gets a trophy and that you can rehabilitate these criminals doesn’t work, it just usually leads to someone else losing their life.
