France: Teacher who was beheaded by Muslim migrant for showing Muhammad cartoons had gotten ‘days of threats’

Oct 17, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer 29 Comments

Did he report these threats? Were they investigated? Why are there no journalists anymore who can or will ask even the most basic questions?

In any case, note that Paty invited Muslim students to leave the room before showing the Muhammad cartoons. He was beheaded anyway. His crime, as far as his attacker was concerned, was daring to show the cartoons at all, even if the tender eyes of Muslim students were not assaulted by this blasphemy. The Islamic supremacist demand is that all people, Muslim and non-Muslim, bow to Islamic law. The West is eventually going to have to decide whether it is going to do so, or defend free society. So far it has gotten along by pretending that the conflict doesn’t exist and that the showdown will never come. Samuel Paty is dead today because of that pretense.

“France teacher had received ‘days of threats’ before his brutal killing,” BBC, October 17, 2020 (thanks to Mick):

The teacher who was beheaded in a street in France had received threats after showing controversial cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad to his pupils, French media report.

He has been named as 47-year-old Samuel Paty, a history and geography teacher….

Police say the attacker was an 18-year-old man of Chechen origin….

A man wielding a large knife attacked the teacher in the street, cutting off his head. Witnesses are said to have heard the attacker shout “Allahu Akbar”, or “God is Greatest”…

Police have said the attacker was an 18-year-old, born in Moscow but from Russia’s predominantly-Muslim southern region of Chechnya….

Samuel Paty, a father, had taken a class about freedom of expression earlier in the month, reports say.

He is said to have shown the cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad while talking about the Charlie Hebdo case, and had reportedly advised Muslim students to leave the room if they thought they might be offended.

Some Muslim parents complained to the school and at least one reportedly took to social media to call for Mr Paty’s sacking. French media report that Mr Paty had received a number of unspecified threats in the days after taking the class….

Muslim leaders in France also condemned the attack. “A civilisation does not kill an innocent person, barbarism does,” Tareq Oubrou, imam of a mosque in Bordeaux, told France Inter….

Define “innocent,” Mr. Oubrou.

    RIP Samuel Paty thank you for standing up for Free speech thoughts and prayers for the family.

    France does not have blasphemy laws if they want blasphemy laws go to Saudi or Pakistan I wish the usless media’s would print the Charlie Hebdo cartoons more to show we won’t be intimidated but sadly no who’s side are they on? There needs to be a new French Revolution

    “A civilisation does not kill an innocent person, barbarism does,” said Tareq Oubrou, imam of a mosque in Bordeaux.

    This seems to be an attempt to exonerate Islam. Some unpacking is needed.

    “A civilisation” presumably refers to Islam. This, though, is the ideology that authorises vigilante-style killing (penalty-free) for leaving it, slavery, stoning, amputations, FGM, forced marriage, child marriage, no freedom of speech, no equality before the law, and much more. That is not a civilisation.

    “An innocent person”: in Islam only a muslim can be innocent. The filthy kuffar fail to be innocent because of their wrong worship. That makes them eligible to be killed. “Muslims must kill non-muslims wherever they are unless they convert to Islam”, explained Ali Gomaa, Grand Mufti of Egypt.

    The imam is hoping that none of his kaffir listeners knows about the death penalty for insulting the Messenger of Allah: “If someone offends the Prophet no problem, we can kill him”, said the Charlie Hebdo killer. He was right: Islamic law specifies just that. The Manual of Islamic Law, “Reliance of the Traveller”, states that it is a serious offence “to revile Allah or his messenger” (o8.7(4)). The penalty is death. The penalty can be carried out, vigilante style, by anyone without blame or legal consequence “since it is killing someone who deserves to die” (o8.4).
    In the West, but not in Islam, vigilante killing is “barbarism”.

    Although the imam is trying to deflect attention away from Islam he does not succeed. This killing is entirely owing to Islam’s teachings.

    The French writer André Servier commented that Islam puts out the light of thought. This story of TRUE JIHAD is a perfect example of how Muslims kill critical thought with their barbaric ideology.

    Servier wrote:

    “L’Islam ne fût pas un flambeau, comme on l’a prétendu ; ce fut un éteignoir. Conçu par un cerveau barbare, à l’usage d’un peuple barbare, il était – et il demeure – incapable de s’adapter à la civilisation. Partout où il a dominé, il a brisé l’élan vers le progrès et enrayé l’évolution de la société.”

    “Islam was not a torch, as has been claimed, but an extinguisher. Conceived in a barbarous brain for the use of a barbarous people, it was – and it remains – incapable of adapting itself to civilization. Wherever it has dominated, it has broken the impulse towards progress and checked the evolution of society.”

    – Andre Servier, in L’islam et la psychologie du musulman (1923)

      Islam was born in the crib of tribalism, it carries its traits and its values. In France, it spread on the wings of communists and socialists. Unintentionally aided by the feminist movement, especially its support for abortion as a family planning tool. Fertility rate in France was the biggest weighing factor on the increase in immigration.

          Actually, there is a great deal we can do–educate others, write to our elected officials and others in positions of power, work to elect candidates who understand the Jihad threat, letters to the editor, and many other tactics.

          Mostly, we need to speak out.

    Decapitation is common in that culture:

    1.After the battle of NICOPOLIS in 1396 in BULGARIA against the Turks, and where the French,Hungarian,Romanian were defeated.

    The defeated were given the option of Converting to Islam or Decapitation: at least 3,000 were beheaded,others even say 10,000.

    2.In 1480 the Turks conquered the ITALIAN town of OTRANTO,at the tip of Italy’s HEEL and people were given the option of Convert to Islam or Decapitation: 800 chose to be BEHEADED.

    3.There is a Christian writer JOEL RICHARDSON who thinks the Antichrist and False Prophet of REVELATION will be the Muslim MAHDI ( the Guided One ) ( descendant of Mohammed, who appears in several hadiths/sayings of Mohammed)

    and the MUSLIM JESUS,one reason is REV says they will decapitate people:

    REV 20:4:

    “I saw the souls of them that were BEHEADED for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God”

    The murder this teacher in France shows just how emotional explosives murderously violent and irrational Muslims are able to become for Islam . They can be rational when it comes to other subjects and study of ,for example mathematics and physics ,they are rational and intelligent but when it come to their religion they can become unreasoning homicidal maniacs.

    Nevertheless did that Muslim not really believe that his god Allah had the power to handle that situation by himself ? So he believed that he need to help Allah out ? Wow that god of Islam must be very powerless and weak since he was unable to do anything himself . Of course that because as, explained before ,the god of Islam is a false and nothing god, a pagan god , combination of the pagan ancient Baal and a moon god.

    Furthermore, that awful incident of the murder of a French school teacher committed by an enraged Muslim because that teacher show his class of students of cartoon display of the prophet of Islam, Muhammad.

    Wow talk about overreacting ! This is an extreme case of it, murderously extreme. Nevertheless not “extreme “ to the devote Muslim view of things. As it has been wisely said “Evil is always looking for an excuse.” In this specific case an Islamic excuse

    In sharp contrast in the civilized Western way of handling a problem should be to so the school board make verbal and written complaint any “offence and inappropriate” drawing display that any teacher might show to his class of students.

    The the reality is that jihadist or jihadists attacks in Western nations be the Muslim terrorists in the city of Paris or Stockholm, London, Manchester Brussels , Nice, Berlin ,Madrid. 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.

    France and most of the west are having to learn the hard way what it means to live with islam. Despite all the lies and excuses to protect that violent ideology the horrors of islam always reappear like blood under the luminol of truth. The murder of this teacher is one more case among ten’s of thousands where the religious aspect of islam was the prime motivation for murder and terror. It wasn’t because of “islamophobia,” it’s not because of racism, it’s because islam teaches hateful violence as divine revelation to the masses. Even a C- student like me knows the power of religion to influence the mind for good or ill. Islam is the world’s best-worst example of how bad an influence religion can be. If islam as an ideology were wiped off the face of the earth tomorrow nothing worthwhile would be lost, but the amount of terror and suffering that would be eradicated would greatly transform the world for the better. Two to three hundred years ago humanity experienced an “enlightened” period, where so much of the old assumptions and bad data was wiped away for a new way of creative and rational thinking. Islam’s ignorance as a religion and a social construct should have died way back then but mainly through intimidation and terror it has continued to thrive. I truly believe what humanity needs right now is a new age of “enlightenment,” with a renewed sense of commitment for truth and humanitarian ideals over the retarded religious barbarities of islam. Let’s be frank about it: islam an aggressive religiopolitical construct that employs the hooks and levers of religion to inspire loyalty to supremacist ideals of the conquering kind. This quest is so important that they’ve given it a name: JIHAD. Muhammad said, “I have been made victorious with terror,” not loving acts of kindness, not wise words that heal, but “terror.” And that’s why this teacher was brutally murdered, because his killer was modelling his behavior according to the violent and supremacist teachings of his religion and the god that it worships. There’s no room for doubt about this (there rarely is), the context of the story and the killer’s own word’s make his motive clear.

    Anyone politician who protects islam as being a friend to the west is a traitor to humanity and their own nation. Vote these people out of power, get rid of them. They are an evil influence whether they know it or not.

    Well, it wasn’t a ‘civilisation’ that killed M. Paty anyway, because genuine ‘civilised’ Frenchmen have never had a habit of decapitating teachers in the street. In any case, what the hell does any ‘muslim leader’ know about ‘civilisation’?

    The answer to the question of whether the west should bow to Islamic sharia or defend freedom is very simple: The west should force all Muslim nations to abide by their commitments as members of the U.N. to the application of human rights in their own societies. Which means they must abolish the Laws of Dhimmitude , including the laws of apostasy, heresy and blasphemy.
    I hope Americans will not bow to this kind of savagery by re-electing Trump

      You’re right. The focus and criticism shouldn’t be on western nations who have helped and welcomed muslims into their own nations, the focus should be on those muslim nations that violate human rights and allow–encourage–the abuse and murder of people for their religion.

      I’ve grown weary of muslims’ usual passive aggressive accusations of racism to our legitimate concerns about islam’s violent and supremacist teachings. And the left who protects islam is no better, they lie and shill for that dangerous creed every chance the get cuz they’re attracted to the power and control they expect it will bring them. It’s all done in the name of “multiculturalism” of course, but for a culture and religion that is wholly monocultural and murderously intolerant toward the freedoms and religions of others. We’re expected to act tolerant for muslim barbarity and intolerance to the point of self destruction, and any reluctance on our part to do that means we’re racists who hate dark skinned people. Their extreme and obstinate indifference in this regard is a groundswell for future division and deepening hatred between us. In the end civil war is inevitable, I say, because good people will never acquiesce to the immorality of appeasing people who think religion is their best excuse for murdering, raping, and conquering others.

      …I have been made victorious with terror…~muhammad, false prophet of a phony religion.

      Muhammad was not a man of god teaching divine wisdom, he was a 7th century thug who used religion to inspire loyalty for his murderous endeavors. Believe it.

      That would be possible in the USA, where a Concealed Carry Permit can be issued, and in Israel, where teachers carry guns (openly). No such facility exists in France. The French, like the British, are perforce unarmed.

    This is something he should not have done, whether out of showing concern for muslim feelings (which have no legal protection any more than mine do) or because he felt intimidated, even terrorized.
