Who will win out in France? The courageous, or the cowards? Those who are ready to defend the freedom of speech, or those who counsel surrender and submission to Sharia and violent intimidation? It’s anybody’s guess. “In the Alpes-Maritimes, a nursery school renamed Samuel Paty creates a stir,” translated from “Dans les Alpes-Maritimes, une école […]
France: Mosque that was closed after beheading of teacher over Muhammad cartoon reopens
It has a new imam. What other steps have been taken to ensure that it won’t preach jihad violence and Sharia blasphemy laws now? Nothing of that kind has been done, of course. “New start for Paris mosque closed after teacher’s murder,” The New Arab, April 9, 2021 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): A […]
France: Interior minister calls for reopening of mosque implicated in teacher’s beheading
The resignation of M’hammed Henniche as rector of the north Paris Pantin mosque and the nomination of new board members does not give any adequate assurance to justify the reopening of Paris Pantin mosque. Any mosque where “some associates” were involved in the beheading of a teacher for “blasphemy” needs a thorough investigation. There is […]
France: Muslim student tells teacher, ‘My father will behead you,’ teacher forced to apologize and is suspended
When those who are supposed to be inculcating understanding of and respect for French values into students instead abdicate their responsibility and surrender the freedom of speech when it is challenged, how will free society in France (or anywhere else) survive? “‘I, Luc, threatened with beheading and suspended by the National Education Inspectorate,’” translated from […]
France: Schoolgirl admits she made up story that led to jihad beheading of schoolteacher
This girl could be the Gavrilo Princip of our time, sparking a much larger conflict than anyone expects or wants. Or more likely, the West will surrender abjectly. “French schoolgirl, 13, admits MAKING UP story that sparked hate campaign resulting in teenage Jihadi beheading teacher Samuel Paty,” by Charlotte Mitchell, MailOnline, March 8, 2021: A […]
Tiny minority of extremists keeps growing: France detains seven more Muslims in probe of teacher’s beheading
Apparently the idea that “blasphemers” should be murdered is not only rooted in Islamic law, but rather widespread among Muslims in France. But it is still “Islamophobic” to notice such things. “French police detain 7 in probe of teacher’s beheading,” by John Leicester, Associated Press, January 12, 2021: LE PECQ, France — French anti-terrorism police […]
France: Over 40% of teachers say they self-censor to avoid offending their Muslim students
75% say they support Samuel Paty, but they don’t want to end up like him; hence the self-censorship. Given this widespread fear and self-abnegation, what will France be like in five years? Ten? Twenty? “Secularism: over 4 in 10 teachers say they have already self-censored, according to a survey,” translated from “Laïcité: plus de 4 […]
Grand Sheikh of al-Azhar: Nothing should be more important than waging jihad in Allah’s way
“Reactions in the Muslim world to the recent publication of the cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad in the French magazine Charlie Hebdo were very harsh.” This was clearly evident, but it should serve as an exhibit of what normative Islam teaches regarding the penalty for blasphemy. Those who proclaim that Islam is inherently a “religion […]
France: Before beheading man for Muhammad cartoon, Muslim migrant asked for prayers and ‘help from Allah’
One would almost get the idea that Abdoullakh Anzorov’s act had something to do with Islam, if it weren’t for French authorities assuring us that Islam is wonderful in every way, and it’s only “distortions” of it that should cause anyone any concern. The challenge that French authorities face in this is convincing people like […]
France: Emails before beheading of teacher for showing cartoon show that his colleagues didn’t support him
This cowardice and impulse to surrender in the face of jihadist intimidation and threats is pandemic in the West. “‘We are all teachers’? Revealing the school emails preceding Paty’s beheading,” by Giulio Meotti, Arutz Sheva, December 9, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): “Je suis enseignant”, we are all teachers, says the slogan brandished […]
