French Police Arrest Suspect in Weekend Copycat Stabbing Attack
— Ace

Guess.

He's confessed to the stabbing. He's an Islamic convert, described as a traditionalist or a radical. He was seen praying just before the attack. This prayer -- which I believe was bowing towards Mecca -- was seen on videotape, as the attack occurred in a train station, well surveilled.

So of course the Interior Minister said:

“I cannot talk about radical Islam."

22 "So of course the Interior Minister said: 'I cannot talk about radical Islam.'"

As I noted before, when government functionaries say things like the above, or variants such as "It's too early to speculate," or "We can't rush to conclusions about motivation," that is dogwhistle talk.

The dogwhistle is this: "I know, and all of you know, that this is yet another jihadi terror attack. But I can't say so openly without having the diversity commissars land on me like a ton of bricks and ruining my career. So I am resorting to this widely understood circumlocution instead."

65 MWR, Theodore dalrymple has a great essay about when western Muslims engage in jihad. He suggests that the violence is a way to prove they are really Muslim and not corrupted by Western culture. They feel guilty for whatever extent they are tempted by or even participating in the evils of western civilization and this guilt drives them. Interesting essay.

70 "They all got the same briefing that said, basically, the Muzzies do the jobs the Europeans won't do"

That was the original intent of the mass importation of Muslims, anyway.

Everyone looked at what the Germans did with _gastarbeiter_ Turks to offset West Germany's postwar labor shortage, and figured it was a brilliant idea they should copy.

Except they made a mistake in assuming that all Muslims were of sensibilities regarding work similar to that of the Turkish guest workers, and man, was that ever wrong.

All over Europe now, the welfare rolls have exploded with Muslims who have gotten plugged into those very cozy Euro welfare state benefits and are cranking out huge families of little Mohammeds on the dole. Imams at the mosque quite openly justify such gaming of the system as "jizya", which is the tribute that Christians and Jews are required to pay to the Islamic faithful in Islamic countries.

This won't end well.

I'd say there are a few reasons: first, they are running out of born and bred people that will willingly blow themselves up/otherwise perpetrate attacks; second, despite the continuing relative ease of crossing borders, it is becoming increasingly difficult for them to smuggle the useful idiots needed across borders; third, we're seeing a tactical change validated by Boston in which huge attacks like 9/11 are not needed and are much more difficult to pull off from both a logistical standpoint as well as due to the mass of intelligence and LE resources being directed against such attacks...they've changed from "swinging for the fence" to playing "small ball"...the new strategy is death by a thousand cuts.

98 The Internal Revenue Service will face a new lawsuit Wednesday over its admitted pattern of targeting tea party groups and other conservative nonprofits for especially invasive questioning when they applied for tax exempt status between 2010 and 2012.

Jay Sekulow, chief counsel of the American Center for Law and Justice, told Fox News host Sean Hannity on Tuesday night that he would soon be ‘taking a lot of depositions in a very big lawsuit’ against the IRS on behalf of 25 right-wing groups.

He revealed on the Hannity show that despite assurances from the Treasury Department and the White House that the IRS had stopped subjecting tea party groups to special scrutiny in 2012, his office received a letter addressed to one of his clients ‘on May 6 of this year from the IRS, asking for responses to intrusive questions.’

102 but I wonder if Islamists get irritated when we describe their attacks as "lone wolf" attacks, I wonder if they get irritated because they don't get any publicity in our papers. Are they going, "It's like we don't even exist. What do we have to do?"

125 I would usually agree. But read the article at France24. It was much more damning in its indictment of this incidents origin.

Headline: >Attack on French soldier ‘religiously motivated’ <

"The nature of the incident, the fact it took place three days after London, and the prayer just before the act lead us to believe he acted on the basis of religious ideology and that his desire was to attack a representative of the state," Molins told a news conference, adding: “It seems clear the intent was to kill."

128 Pathetic islamo-worship at their altar of political correctness.

I saw one fully veiled "woman" in RER train station in Paris last weekend. I know it is against the law, and wanted to pull a Gomer Pyle "citizen's arrest" and yank it off. Husband saw what I was doing (staring and watching with umbrella weapon at ready) and took my hand and led me away. They really piss me off #crankyChristyBwithjetlag

It is almost irreparable in some areas of Europe, this Islamo creeping Sharia has crept in and laid an egg in the heart of their freedom. I read Mark Steyn's book years ago, and he has been spot on. There have been, for years, areas of Paris, other cities in France and Belgium, city blocks of the cities, controlled by Sharia law as they buy property, breed like rabbits in polygamy, and, by voting bloc, elect their own into the government. France, per Mark Steyn's book, will be the first country to fall to Sharia. The police won't even go into these areas controlled by this "peaceful religion" even if you wander in by mistake and need them, which is why I stick to normal tourist districts. Saying that, I did not want to go there this year, but at the persuasion of son and dtr-in-law as we were going to be in the UK and Bruges, Belgium, went and did a few things I wanted and generally had a good time. Considering I looked like a bag-lady with TB, people left me the heck alone and/or I did not care or worry as I was nearly dead from plague anyway. At any rate, no problems, but I think it is my last trip to Europe. C'est la vie. As I have said before, the Parisians were nicer a decade ago when I was there, and they have no patience for your patois French and immediately speak to you in English---this did not happen on my last visit.

In Monmartre, area of Sacre Coeur which I have never wanted to visit in the past,but did last weekend because family wanted to, has always been known for pickpockets and, in past, "gypsies." Now it is "N. Africans." They accost you in line, try to tie a "friendship bracelet on your hand" and then demand money at the bottom of the stairs. We four said "NON!" to them, they said some Lion King garbage of peace (seriously, I had to ask son what that was about), and then moved on to the rest. No police in sight in entire area where crime occurs...as that would make too much sense! I was prepared with my "LEAVE ME ALONE" in French but did not use it.

The police in Paris? You could find them in riot gear stewing about the 200,000 Catholics marching peacefully as families against gay marriage and adoption. They were in subways, looking menacing and stuff, but, I am sure, not looking for man who sliced and diced the cop who is mentioned here. I am glad they found the bastard.

133 drudge has a link to nbc talking about how the tax lawyers for tea party groups did go all over the place trying to get their client's tax exempt status. It's crazy, and just what I thought. There are letters to and from everyone between Cleveland and DC. "Cleta Mitchell, another attorney representing conservative groups that allege they were targeted, said an IRS agent in Cincinnati told her a “task force” IRS office in Washington, D.C., was making the decisions about the processing of applications, and that she subsequently dealt with IRS representatives there." Stupid fucking IRS bureaucrats, they had to sign their name on everything. Issa has a path to discovery right there.

They are committed to destroying their countries...well I mean committed to importing a permanent welfare class, regardless of what it does to those asshole natives who wouldn't vote for them in the first place. It is interesting. The end result is going to the Balkanization of Europe. Each country is going to have cutouts where the Muzzies now own. Not this decade but soon. There is no attempt at assimilation by either side and human nature being what it is, they will separate like oil and water.

The Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire and Persian Empire should have mobilized everything they had to throw at them as soon as the Muzzies came out of the desert.

Even the areas the muslims  captured didn't really take them seriously and expected the occupation to be pretty short, hence all the stuff you read about the Muslims being hailed as liberators - the areas the Byzantines had just recaptured were upset about high taxes and were happy to poke their finger in Constantinople's eye. Once they realized that the Muslims weren't going anywhere and what "dhimmi" really meant they changed their tune.

Those Scandi yutes would certainly like to expand their playground to suburban Paris, where the government would rather be talking about anything else than rad-slam (gay marriage anyone? how about taxing the 1%?). 

 

Personally, I'd almost like to see what Hollande would do if that were to happen, and the French yutes (of indeterminate religious persuasion) were to actually kick off some car torchings and other assorted mayhem.
