“France needs to ‘invent a new relationship with Islam’ and Imams should be trained locally, ‘not elsewhere,’ Valls added in an interview with Le Monde.” Valls is in for a rude awakening: end the foreign funding of mosques and train the imams locally, and they will still be reading the same Qur’an and studying the […]
French PM: “France is going to have to live with terrorism”
Why not identify its cause, fight it, and eradicate it instead? There were no jihad terror attacks in France in the 1970s and 1980s. What has changed? Why not examine that? But this defeatism is not surprising. Valls has predecessors who long ago said: “France is going to have to live with Nazism.” “Nice Attack: […]
Algerian PM: “Algeria, while fighting terrorism, doesn’t associate it with Islam”
“The menace of terrorism poses a threat to civilization and Algeria, while fighting terrorism, doesn’t associate it with Islam,” said Sellal. Good. Now if only he could convince the terrorists themselves not to do so. But in that effort, he faces some obstacles: “We will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve for […]
“We are at war,” says French Prime Minister after jihad mass murder attacks in Brussels
We are at war? Do tell, Valls. With whom are we at war? “Violent extremists”? How do you propose to fight this war if you won’t acknowledge what the enemy ideology is, and keep importing into your country more people who adhere to that ideology? And when did this war start? This morning? Earlier? Last […]
France: Jihadis had planned to behead military officer, film the scene
French Prime Minister Manuel Valls said: “We note the power of the threat, a threat level (France) has never before known. The threat is outside, the threat is inside.” Yes, it is. But neither Valls nor any other Western leader is prepared to speak with full honesty about where exactly it is, and from what […]
French PM: “We must say all of this is not Islam. The hate speech, anti-Semitism…violence and terrorism.”
Valls said: “We must say all of this is not Islam. The hate speech, anti-Semitism that hides behind anti-Zionism and hate for Israel… the self-proclaimed imams in our neighbourhoods and our prisons who are promoting violence and terrorism.” He also said: “Yet Islam is here to stay in France.” The Islamic State, al-Qaeda, those “self-proclaimed […]
Seven Muslims from France in jihad suicide attacks for the Islamic State
Six of them were converts to Islam, illustrating, as French Prime Minister Manuel Valls says here, the Islamic State’s “formidable ability to indoctrinate.” In a sane society, intelligence officials would be studying that ability to indoctrinate and formulating ways to counter it. Instead, all — all — Western governments have committed themselves to the fiction […]
French PM: “In France, all the energy, all the necessary resources already exist for the development of Islam”
“Anything that delays an Islam of France, even if this is already a reality, that’s the great challenge we must face.” Valls is dreaming. He thinks Muslims in France will create an Islam shorn of Sharia hudud punishments, shorn of political supremacism, shorn of jihad terror. If imams in France did somehow devise such an […]
French PM: 10,000 Muslims from Europe to wage jihad by year’s end
This is “a three-fold increase on current numbers.” For some reason, the steady stream of articles assuring us that the Islamic State has nothing to do with Islam, and the assurances to that effect from Western leaders, have had no effect on the Muslims from the West who are deciding to go fight for the […]
French Prime Minister blames Muslim terror on France’s own “ethnic apartheid”
Valls has been more forthright than most Western leaders in identifying the foe as “radical Islam,” but here he shows that he is just as clueless as the rest of them when it comes to knowing the root causes of Islamic terror. Valls shares the paternalistic assumption that virtually all Western leaders hold: that Islamic […]
