France: Beheaded teacher gets Legion d’Honneur for the same thing for which police interrogated him

Oct 26, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer 16 Comments

This epitomizes the dilemma France faces today. French authorities want to welcome Muslims in large numbers, and not require them to assimilate. But they also want to uphold secularism and the freedom of speech. These two impulses are on a collision course. More on this story. “Police interrogated French teacher over Mohammed cartoons four days […]

Pakistan’s Khan denounces Macron for ‘encouragement of Islamophobia’ and trying to ‘deliberately provoke’ Muslims

Oct 26, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 26 Comments

Khan says that “by attacking Islam, clearly without having any understanding of it, President Macron has attacked and hurt the sentiments of millions of Muslims in Europe and across the world, The last thing the world wants or needs is further polarisation. Public statements based on ignorance will create more hate, Islamophobia and space for […]

France: Muslim who beheaded teacher over Muhammad cartoon told jihad contact in Syria he had ‘avenged the Prophet’

Oct 25, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer 29 Comments

Abdullakh Anzorov moved to France when he was six. He is unlikely to have brought with him the idea that murder is an appropriate response to a cartoon of Muhammad. He was almost certainly taught that in France. Who taught him this? Have his parents been investigated? Has his mosque been investigated? Why not? “French […]

‘The beheading of a teacher in France is the barbaric logical conclusion to cancel culture’

Oct 25, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer 25 Comments

This is absolutely true. Those who are denying platforms and the opportunity to participate in the public discourse to people they dislike will not be satisfied with anything short of the deaths of those whom they have targeted. You think that’s an exaggeration? Consider the fact that the supposedly egregious statements that the targets have […]

Al-Azhar grand imam says man who beheaded teacher doesn’t speak for Islam, but warns against ‘insulting religions’

Oct 24, 2020 2:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 38 Comments

Ahmed al-Tayeb, the Sheikh of Al-Azhar, said: “I declare that Islam, its teachings and its Prophet are innocent of this wicked terrorist crime….At the same time, I emphasize that insulting religions and attacking their sacred symbols under the banner of freedom of expression is an intellectual double standard and an open invitation to hatred.” No […]

France: Mosque apologises for sharing video calling for action against teacher for showing Muhammad cartoons

Oct 24, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 39 Comments

The Pantin mosque was shut down for six months by the French Interior Ministry for links to the beheading of French teacher Samuel Paty. Furthermore, according to AP: Authorities say the Pantin mosque has long had an imam following the Salafist path, a rigorous interpretation of the Muslim holy book. Pantin was where an 18-year-old […]

France: Former education boss blames extreme Left for spread of jihad ideology in schools

Oct 24, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 16 Comments

Former French Inspector General of National Education Jean-Pierre Obin states that “we have in the National Education, in the administration and even in the classrooms some teachers and officials who are in ideological denial or complacency in relation to Islamism.” He adds that the “extreme left, very present in National Education, that thinks that attacking […]

In France, Macron Claims That ‘Fear is About to Change Sides’

Oct 23, 2020 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald 25 Comments

Will the murder of Samuel Paty at long last lead France to do what it must to meet the Islamic threat within? Or will there be rhetorical resolution, a laying of flowers, marches of solidarity in major cities, a series of well-publicized roundups and then, again, a relaxing of resolve and of raids, as happened […]

France: Cops interrogated teacher who showed Muhammad cartoon four days before he was beheaded

Oct 22, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer 10 Comments

Why didn’t the French police interrogate Brahim Chnina, the father of a girl at Paty’s school, who circulated a video inciting Muslims to murder Paty? Why didn’t police interrogate Abdelhakim Sefrioui, who aided Chnina? Why, in a country that is supposedly dedicated to the freedom of speech, did the police call in Paty, whose only […]

France: Muslim migrant who beheaded man over Muhammad cartoon ‘had become increasingly religious’

Oct 22, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer 11 Comments

Yet again we see the correlation between a turn to devout observance of Islam and involvement in jihad terror activity. Not all devout Muslims are jihad terrorists, but all jihad terrorists are devout Muslims. Yet back in 2011, the Obama administration removed a sudden immersion in Islam as a sign of a possible turn to […]

Islamic scholar on Muslim who beheaded teacher over cartoon: ‘We could never say that he committed a serious crime’

Oct 22, 2020 8:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 21 Comments

Sheikh Ali Al-Yousuf of the International Union of Muslim Scholars has praised the Muslim migrant teen who beheaded French teacher Samuel Paty, stating that the teen was not guilty of a serious crime. Why? “He took it upon himself to carry out the death penalty for insulting the Prophet Muhammad,” said the Sheikh.  Al-Yousuf’s only […]

Turkey: TV host calls on Macron to ‘reexamine’ the freedom of speech and criminalize blasphemy against Islam

Oct 21, 2020 10:30 am By Robert Spencer 32 Comments

There are many in the West who agree with Mohamed Abdelbaky — so many that the freedom of speech is under serious threat. If Western countries adopt blasphemy laws, however, they will be essentially committing suicide. For years now, Islamic groups in the West have characterized any analysis of how jihad terrorists use the texts […]

France: Muslim students cheer burning of French flags in response to Muhammad cartoons

What will France be like when these students grow up? The answer is not difficult or elusive in the slightest degree. But no one wants to face it. “Freedom of expression at school: ‘For my students, Charlie Hebdo is the extreme right,’” translated from “Liberté d’expression à l’école : ‘Pour mes élèves, Charlie Hebdo, c’est […]

Trotskyites: French ‘ruling elite’ is ‘whipping up an atmosphere of anti-Muslim hysteria’ in wake of jihad beheading

The Leftist/Islamic alliance becomes more obvious, and more open about its goals, by the day. “Macron promotes anti-Muslim ‘free speech’ hypocrisy after terrorist killing,” by Will Morrow, World Socialist Web Site, October 18, 2020: Within less than 48 hours of the terrorist attack and murder of a teacher near Paris on Friday afternoon, the entire […]

France: Mosque closed for six months for link to beheading of teacher for showing Muhammad cartoon

Oct 20, 2020 12:30 pm By Robert Spencer 15 Comments

What about after the six months are over? Do French authorities actually believe that this mosque will then teach the importance of the freedom of speech and the necessity to reject Islam’s death penalty for blasphemy? “French mosque shut over message linked to teacher beheading,” by Elaine Ganley, AP, October 20, 2020: PARIS — A […]

Breaking: Video that Motivated Muslim ‘Refugee’ in France to Behead Teacher Samuel Paty Revealed (Watch)

Oct 20, 2020 11:00 am By Amy Mek 15 Comments

The recent Islamic terrorist beheading of a teacher in France was inspired by a threatening video posted on social media and a conversation with the video’s creators. France and its open borders leaders failed to take seriously the threats made against the professor by Sharia-adherent Muslims. French law enforcement also ignored the reported warnings about […]

France: Muslim who beheaded teacher over Muhammad cartoons paid four students over $350 to point him out

Oct 20, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 9 Comments

Clearly this was a carefully planned operation. And these students might very well have been telling the truth that they had no idea Anzorov was going to murder Paty. If all they know about Islam comes from French schools, they would almost certainly have no idea whatsoever that Islamic law mandates death for blasphemy. It’s […]

Muslim Beheads Man on French Street, and Here We Go Again

Oct 19, 2020 7:00 pm By Robert Spencer 72 Comments

Once again we get the same mind-numbing denial and willful ignorance we always see after jihad attacks. My latest in FrontPage: It happened again on Friday: a Muslim migrant from Chechnya, screaming “Allahu akbar,” beheaded a schoolteacher, Samuel Paty, on a street in a Paris suburb for the crime of showing cartoons of Muhammad to […]

His uncle says, “If he were still alive, I would have asked him: ‘Why did you do that? What was going on your head?’ He must have been influenced by someone.’” Well, yes, he must have been. He has apparently been in France since he was six. Has his mosque been investigated? Do authorities know […]

France: Muslim filmed himself beheading teacher for showing Muhammad cartoons, posted video online

Jihadis often video their gruesome activities, as encouragement for their comrades who know that Allah reward those who “kill and are killed” with Paradise (Qur’an 9:111). “Thousands rally in Paris in protest at murder of teacher Samuel Paty by refugee Islamist terrorist, 18, who FILMED moment he beheaded him for showing pupils cartoons of Prophet […]
