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

Macron demands Erdogan explain presence of jihadis in Azerbaijan, doesn’t explain presence of jihadis in France

Oct 5, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 24 Comments

Macron’s concern over Azerbaijan is reasonable, but he should pay closer attention to developments at home. To be sure, he has recently promised to do so, but words are cheap.

“France’s Macron demands Turkey explain ‘jihadists’ in Azerbaijan,” Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, October 2, 2020 (thanks to Henry):

French President Emmanuel Macron on Friday demanded that Turkey explain what he said was the arrival of jihadist fighters in Azerbaijan – and urged NATO to face up to its ally’s actions.

“A red line has been crossed, which is unacceptable,” Macron said. “I urge all NATO partners to face up to the behavior of a NATO member.

“France’s response is to ask Turkey for an explanation on this point,” he said.

Macron was speaking after a summit in Brussels at which EU leaders agreed to threaten Turkey with sanctions over its gas drilling in Cypriot waters.

But the French leader was also infuriated by events in disputed Nagorny Karabakh, where there has been heavy fighting between Armenian and Azerbaijani forces.

He alleged that intelligence reports had established that 300 Syrian fighters drawn from “jihadist groups” from the Syrian city of Aleppo had passed through the Turkish city of Gaziantep en route for Azerbaijan.

“These fighters are known, tracked and identified,” he alleged, adding that he would call Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan “in the coming days.”

Armenia has accused Turkey of sending mercenaries to back its ally Azerbaijan and on Monday the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said Ankara had dispatched at least 300 proxies from northern Syria….

    Erdogan has made Turkey the launching pad for his version of Islam, the original version. Commence plunder, rape, assassination, mass murder, intolerance, dumbing down, censorship, and the threat that he will dump his most dangerous prisoners on Europeans if they get in his way. He’s what a Muslim gets when democracy flirts with Islam, an oligarch who abolishes democracy.

          +1000 to Boycott Turkey and Infidel !!!! Kerdogan’s defeat would not only bring peace to Turkey and its neighbouring countries but also to the entire world since he supports Jehaadism nearly everywhere he can, including Pakistani Jehaad. He should’ve taken down in the July 2016 military intervention but sadly that intervention failed. Qatari Amir should also be taken down, the closest ally of Turdogan.

          I don’t think the ouster of Erdogan would bring peace to the whole Muslim world–but it wouldn’t hurt.

      @Adam,

      You must not trust appearances. Our kings and presidents never been very “gracious“ and nice. It’s matter we know something about, read a history book.

    Macron demands Erdogan explain presence of jihadis in Azerbaijan, doesn’t explain presence of jihadis in France
    ……………….

    Macron has actually made some Anti-Jihad moves re Turkey and Hezb’allah in Lebanon, and “Islamist separatism” at home.

    I really hope he is being serious.

    So Mr Macron has said something of questionable rationality.

    But what about the gent who said just today “Don’t be afraid of Covid”?
    Over two hundred thousand of his own people have died of Covid, so far. Sadly, with many more to come. Thousands more are suffering now, today. This disease is dangerous and can be deadly. It is vitally important that everybody recognises this, and takes appropriate precautions.
    But let’s not be distracted. Look at Macron!

    Is Donald Trump sane? He’s certainly criminally irresponsible.

      More of “Rod” demanding that we ignore the threat of Jihad and instead spend our time castigating the American president. Ignore the Jihad, ‘filthy Infidels’!

        You’re welcome to fear jihad if you want to. Perhaps you need it to give your life meaning. You have my sympathy.

        The question I asked was “is Trump sane?”

          Let’s cut to the chase, Antifaman. Just answer two easy questions that are even easier for someone as intelligent as you.
          Q1: What do you think of Jews?
          Being that want to be as racist as you say I am and I need your help to be even more so, answer the following question.
          Q2: How can I tell when someone is of the muslim race?
          I’m having difficulty picking between caucasian, mongoloid, negroid, muslim and Irish Setter.

          The idea that it is irrational to be concerned over almost 38,000 Jihad terror attacks just since 9/11 is grotesque.

          And note that his only meaning here is to try to distract from the horrors of Jihad terror, which he *still* refuses to condemn.

          Oct 6, 2020 at 10:49 pm

          Giacomo, you should know that to answer a question with a question is an obvious giveaway. I’m disappointed in you.

        • gravenimage says

          Oct 6, 2020 at 11:18 pm

          These are questions “Rod” wants to avoid at all costs.

          And *of course* he wants to pretend that if Infidels defend against Jihad in any way that they are insane.

          So, poor, little Antifaman doesn’t have the strength of his own convictions to state his feelings about Jews as much as he does about muslims. Your slip is showing, bud. It seems Antifaman is heavy on the ”fa” but light on the ”anti.” He is nothing but a Jew-hating fascist neo-Nazi himself, just like the rest of Antifa whose first lie is their name.
          Furthermore, the man (?) who uses the term ”racist” more than anyone else visiting this site cannot even define a race. That’s what I call a totally gutless fraud artist.

    France is the home of the ‘FRANKS’ … that’s another name the Arabs use for the ‘Crusaders’. The ‘FRANKS’ are hated throughout the Islamic world, especially by Arabs. Osama bin Laden singled out the French for most deserving to be attacked.

    The French appear to be waking up from their long nap concerning Islamic supremacism. The French have the intellectual resources needed to demythologize and debunk Islam. They should put all possible government resources into the academic discussion of the origins of Islam. That will destroy Islam and the ill-placed faith of Muslims in their concocted myths.
