To hear his friends tell it, and of course his mother, Nahel Merzouk, the 17-year-old Algerian-French young man who was shot by the police, was a splendid fellow, never in any trouble, so why did the police have to go and do what they did? But it turns out that, having nearly run over a bicyclist and a pedestrian, Nahel was finally forced to stop by two police officers. As one of them leaned over to talk to him, his pistol aimed downward into the car, Nahel suddenly accelerated the car with that policeman still leaning into, but not in it. As the car’s sudden movement forward knocked the officer off-kilter, in a split-second attempt to halt the driver, the policeman shot at what he thought was Nahel’s leg, which was where his gun had been pointed. But it no longer was, and the bullet instead hit Nahel’s chest.
The maghrébins all over France went on the rampage. Frenzied mobs in Paris, Marseille, and Bordeaux and hundreds of other cities and towns, pillaged and destroyed stores, choosing judiciously to hit the luxury-goods emporia on the rue de Rivoli, as well as Apple stores, the famed department store La Samaritaine, and high-end sneakers stores, making off everywhere with armfuls of loot. In one southern city, the Swarovski store was emptied, with everything smashed or stolen. So, too, was the optician’s store on the same block, where thousands of pairs of glasses were taken or destroyed, and next to it, a computer-and-phone store emptied of everything. And so on, store after store, destroyed and its merchandise stolen or smashed, all to express “the rage” of young Muslims over the death of the “angelic” Nahel Merzouk. By Sunday, Muslim mobs have torched many thousands of cars, and hundreds of buses all over the country. They tried to burn down the largest library in Marseille, the Alcazar, and as they did in so many other places, those mobs shouted “Allahu akbar.”
Are the French police too aggressive with drivers during traffic stops? Hardly. In the three years since 2020, there have been 21 fatalities among drivers. That comes to seven drivers a year who are shot. In the U.S., in the five years between 2017 and the beginning of 2022, there were a total of 600 fatalities, or 120 a year. 120 a year in the U.S., 7 a year in France.
There are now 45,000 police on the streets of France.
“French Riots Begin to Abate Even as Economic Costs Mount,” by Tara Patel, Bloomberg, July 2, 2023:
The economic costs of the unrest are also mounting. On July 1, Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire said some 10 shopping malls, more than 200 supermarkets, 250 tobacco shops and 250 bank outlets had been attacked or looted in just the previous night. When this is all over, the total damage will be much much higher — thousands of shops have been destroyed.
“All types of businesses have been targeted, especially those with valuable merchandise,” Jean-Luc Chauvin, head of the Chamber of Commerce of Aix Marseille Provence, told France Info. A first estimate by insurers put damages at more than €100 million ($109 million), a number that will undoubtedly rise, he said.
“French riots: French-Algerian teenager killed by police was ‘no angel,’ while those who protested migrant rape and murder of 12-year-old Lola were branded ‘racist’ and ‘fascist,’ says Éric Zemmour,” by John Cody, Remix News, June 30, 2023:
Many media reports are excusing the mass riots that are destroying France over the last three days due to “rage” over the police shooting that killed a 17-year-old teen. However, that same media labeled those who protested the rape and murder of 12-year-old schoolgirl Lola by an Algerian migrant in 2022 as “fascists” and “racists,” according to Reconquête party leader Éric Zemmour.
Do you remember Lola? She was the 12-year-old French girl, raped, then killed and dismembered – so that her body would fit into a suitcase — by her Algerian assailant. There were quiet marches to protest her death, and to protest the fact that her killer had managed to remain in France long after he had received an order of deportation. Those who marched, in order to remember the victim, and to protest this intolerable state of affairs where those ordered to be deported nonetheless remain in the country, were attacked by some for being “Islamophobes” and “racists.” Apparently protesting against Muslim criminals – and there are tens of thousands of these in France – makes one a “racist.”
Zemmour said on France 1, a television talk show:
“The death of a young man is always sad, no matter what. But he was not ‘an angel,’ as Kylian Mbappé says. At the age of 17, he already had a very extensive criminal record. On the other hand, when you demonstrate calmly for a child who has been cut into pieces by an Algerian in an irregular situation, little Lola, you are called ‘rebellious,’ ‘fascists’ and ‘racists,’” said Zemmour during an appearance on Europe 1 television station.
As Remix News reported yesterday, the 17-year-old French-Algerian Nahel M., who was shot and killed during a traffic stop, had 15 offenses on his criminal record, including resisting arrest, narcotics offenses, and driving violations, including driving with a fake license plate. On the day he was stopped by police, he also reportedly almost hit a cyclist and pedestrian.
Many media reports have been silent about Nahel M.’s criminal history, with instead many alluding that his shooting was based on “racism.”
Media outlets outside France, their needle stuck at “racism,” with all sorts of idiotic invocations of Black Lives Matter, have said very little about Nahel Merzouk’s extensive criminal record. It would only get in the way of properly understanding Nahel’s death as the act of a “French racist” policeman killing an innocent young Arab. And of course, the only way to protest against “racism” is to burn down buildings, set thousands of cars on fire, steal iPhones, computers, and Swarovski crystal.
The officer in question is a greatly respected police officer, several times honored for his bravery. No matter. He is French, Nahel was Arab. Therefore he was the “racist” and Nahel a little angel. The President of the Republic, who ought to have said that the judiciary will examine the conduct of the policeman, instead condemned him in advance, calling the policeman’s action “inexplicable” and “unforgivable.” The Prime Minister, Elizabeth Borne, and the Minister of Security, Gerald Darmanin, also issued statements condemning the policeman – whatever happened to the presumption of innocence until proven guilty? — in their craven attempt to quell the Muslim mobs.
Of course, the UN human rights office took time off from bashing Israel to express its “concern,” but that concern was not about the mobs attacking and destroying stores, often after emptying them of their contents, not about the attacks on shopping malls and medical buildings, the pillage, the looting, the vandalism, not about libraries sacked or set on fire, not the attempts to murder people.
No, what the UN human rights office was concerned about was not this countrywide mayhem, the pillaging, the mass thefts, the antisemitic scrawls, the burning of automobiles and buses, the attempted murder of a mayor. The UN office was, as France 24 pointed out, “concerned” about police racism following the shooting.
“This is a moment for the country to seriously address the deep issues of racism and racial discrimination in law enforcement,” spokesperson Ravina Shamdasani said.
There is no racism or racial discrimination by the French in France. There is instead, a deep and abiding hatred directed at France and the French by the Muslim Arabs. It is anti-French racism. The French are now faced with this orgy of hate from those on whom the French state has spent tens of billions of euros, more per capita than it has on any other immigrant group, and far more than the state pays to support the “diagonale du vide” — the people of rural France.
Fortunately, the French government at once, and angrily, rejected this UN attempt to start to lecture Paris on its non-existent “racism” and to side with the rampaging Muslim mobs. Now France can perhaps begin to understand how Israel feels when the UN, that most antisemitic and anti-Western of international bodies, decides to denounce it.
Remix News continued:
In contrast, when 12-year-old Lola was raped and killed by an Algerian migrant already scheduled for deportation, the same media went into damage control mode, claiming migrants were “threatened” by growing anger over the issue. Those who marched in Lola’s honor were branded as racist and fascist, even though they conducted peaceful demonstrations and did not resort to widespread looting and violence.
Because Lola’s rapist and murderer was an Algerian, those who expressed sympathy for her had to be dismissed as “racists.”
As Remix News reported in 2022, even memorials to the murdered schoolgirl were torn down, while Nahel Merzouk., a known criminal, is being lionized by migrant communities across France.
Zemmour also points to similar riots that took place in 2005, but he says these are far worse than that year.
“These riots are much more serious than those of 2005. Why? Because at the time we used 10,000 to 12,000 police officers, today we are at 40,000 [now 45,000]. And clearly that is not enough Because today all of France is affected and not just the suburbs [where most Muslim migrants live]. Small towns are also affected because for 20 years immigrants have been distributed there,” wrote Zemmour on Twitter.
Damien Rieu, who is a politician for Zemmour’s party, has been regularly posting footage of the ongoing riots and covering them in detail. However, last night he wrote that the scale of the riots is overwhelming.
“This is the first time in 15 years of watching the news that I can no longer follow at all because there are so many riots. If the night does not end in tragedy, it will be a miracle,” he wrote on Twitter.
There is now talk of a state of emergency being called in France, with French President Emmanuel Macron reportedly deciding against it up until now.
However, politicians are questioning whether France even has the means to enforce a state of emergency, as 40,000 [now 45,000] police officers have so far failed to quell the disorder.
It has now been five days since the riots started in Paris and Marseille, and now they are all over France. Even the 40,000 extra police and gendarmes on the streets have been unable to quell the rioters.
“The collapse of the country comes to light. Do we even have the means to enforce a state of emergency? Committed to the front line, our police forces will not be able to compensate for the generalized political bankruptcy forever,” wrote Les Republicans MP Aurélien Pradié on Twitter.
Over 850 [that figure has now risen to close to 3000] arrests have been made and dozens [now more than 280] of police officers injured during the riots that have spread from Paris to Lille, Marseilles, Lyon and Toulouse.
So what do we know now, after six days of Muslim riots:
First, that France needs more police on the streets at all times, and ought to be willing to call out the army to deal with what is a mass uprising of people hellbent on theft, vandalism, arson, and worse.
Second, this was not about protesting “racism” – there were no solemn marches or protests. Instead, there was only mayhem, one vast orgy of theft and vandalism by frenzied mobs. What fun to set many thousands of cars on fire, and then to do the same to buses and apartment houses and doctors’ offices and supermarkets and shops, after taking everything of value. And at the same time, all those Muslim Arabs who were engaged in this stealing, with smash-and-grab attacks on stores, making off with armfuls of expensive goods, have presented themselves as virtuously protesting against “racism.” It’s complete nonsense. These are criminals. This supposed “outrage” is their excuse. They are well-provided for by a crazily generous state. But they want more. And they want the Infidels to have less.
There are lots of claims being made about how France must spend more to make Muslims feel welcome. But government figures show that more is spent per capita on the Muslims than on any other group. No other immigrants – not the Chinese, not the black Christians from Africa and the Caribbean, not Hindus from India, ,have received the kind of largesse of every kind that is lavished on the Muslims. But these others do not riot.
Some lecture or hector the French and call for greater “integration.” What are they talking about? Every third government office seems to be about programs encouraging “integration.” How do you integrate people who despise you, whose holy book tells them that the French are, like all Infidels, “the most vile of created beings”? Maghrébins do not come to France to become French. They come to live off the what the French state provides, supplemented what they can obtain through crime. Muslims are less than 10% of the population in France, but comprise 70% of the prison population.
Eventually, the Muslim mobs will have hauled away enough loot to feel temporarily sated, and the riots will stop, though only until the next excuse comes along, something to “spark” an “explosion of anger.” That could be a verdict in favor of the officer, or a prison sentence that Muslims deem insufficient. In an interview with French television, the police officer’s lawyer, Laurent-Franck Lienard, said his client had aimed at the driver’s leg but was bumped when the car took off, causing him to shoot towards his chest. “Obviously (the officer) didn’t want to kill the driver,” he said according to the report.
Can the officer get a fair trial? Not in much of the media, but possibly in a French court. Already a crowdfunding effort has raised nearly $700,000 for the officer’s defense. Let us hope.
See the results of Open Borders and Diversity in France lets learn what small minded liberal Pinheads get us
Exactly. See how well Soros’ Open Society works?
People get along when they have similiar values and beliefs. Europe used to be Judeo-Christian. Having lived in Pakistan in the 60s, I was shocked when they started bringing large numbers of Muslims into their countries knowing that THIS IS NEVER GOING TO WORK. The cultural and religious differences are too great.
So this whole thing in France has turned into a George Floyd situation, with the radical left fanning the flames like BLM did in Minneapolis. The only thing that is going to stop this insanity in the Western world is the complete destruction of the left. I’ll leave the rest to your imagination.
If France were only smart enough to not allow any Muslims into their country, these riots would not have happened. Muslims love death and destruction. They do not fit into France’s culture. They do not assimilate. They act like little children who should always get their way. Deport. Deport. Deport. If you do not eliminate them, they will over populate the country and take it away from you. France will become Franceanistan. Let this mess in Europe serve as a warning to other countries, especially the USA and the United Kingdom. Being stupid and compassionate tor these invaders is not wise in the least. They have literally robbed France blind. DON’T ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN IN ANY OTHER NATION ON THE PLANET.
“ Already a crowdfunding effort has raised nearly $700,000 for the officer’s defense. Let us hope.”
The lawyers will make a killing too!
People love to hate us until they need us.
Point taken, but you do charge extortionate fees.
This is the decadent and degenerate West committing slow suicide
The fact is that there is a sizable minority of the population who are pacifistic, hedonistic and mindless, who have lost their survival instincts and common sense
This was all predicted by the great H G Wells in his dystopian novel …
YOUTUBE The Time Machine / meet the Eloi/ books turn to dust (3mins)
Easy to quell such riots. Call in the military and patrol the streets with machine guns. As was done during the Watts Riots of 1965 in Los Angeles.
And USE those fire arms early & often.
(If a chickenshit crowd ever surrounds my home or truck, I guarantee I’ll make full use of my 12 gauge bullpup.)
France has one of the world’s badassed military unit – the Legion. Their raison d’etre is to kill. France should unleash them, and let the army follow them.
Under French law, it is forbidden for the Foreign Legion to be deployed within the borders of France, That is why it’s called the French FOREIGN Legion.
I am sure they have units under different names that can be deployed in France. And if not, how long would it take to train a good force to stop riiots and make it clear that they will not be tolerated. The left is constantly encouraging riots, presumably they identify them with the revolt of the workers. Workers of the world unite and throw off your chains. The rioters become the oppressed masses who are entitled to revolt and fight back against their oppressors. Of course the people who justify this are probably living elsewhere and are perhaps protected against danger from riots.
The army must make rivers of blood, then deport the survivors if any.
At long last a truthful Iman explains why this is happening.
Very good video!
France could use another Charles Martel. Escort these malcontents back to their original family homes.
Most don’t have the stomach to do what needs to be done, yet the thing must be done. Send in the army, take no prisoners, keep the media out, deport survivors.
”First, that France needs more police on the streets at all times, and ought to be willing to call out the army to deal with what is a mass uprising of people hellbent on theft, vandalism, arson, and worse.”
This is exactly what the left is hoping for. The people to beg for the iron fist.
It would maybe be a better idea for the french people to do the dirty work themselves. Go into their french streets and reclaim them by terrible unyielding merciless force.
“…reclaim them by terrible unyielding merciless force.” With what? French bread loaves? France not only has strict firearms control, but those who attack would likely be prosecuted as the criminals. I’m sorry, but France has made its bed and must deal with the consequences.
”France not only has strict firearms control, but those who attack would likely be prosecuted as the criminals.”
Strict firearms control huh? Bet they have strict laws on drunk driving, speeding, burning cars and buildings.
You ever break the law? Very soon, everything will be made against the law, and we will all be prosecuted. It is a part of their plan, and has been a part of all leftist/despot plans.
Can they arrest everyone? All of France? Was the King of England able to arrest all Colonist?
Unless the Muslim ferals are deported….all of them…..and the southern ports in the south of France, like Marseille, are closed to illegal immigration, nothing will change. And the border in eastern France should be closed as well to prevent the Muslims in Germany from streaming in. The riots will be quelled eventually but the Muslim problem will remain.
Forget Macron. This guy is useless. A total daisy. The people of France are going to have get serious. Deport. There is no in-between.
Well said. If there is a positive consequence to all of this, it would be to wake France up. My lord, how many babies in parks need to be stabbed to establish that there’s a problem here? How many French women need to be raped? And for how many years???
I just love all these satanic quran following muslims…
STEALING!!!
Now they all should have their hands and feet chopped off… according to the satanic quran!
Import Islamofascists and get terrorism – what a surprise
Absolutely appalling what is going on in France. Call in the military and boot all the Islamopigs out and never let them back in. Never.
Make note: The Holy Bible warns of an Antichrist that will stand on the Temple Mount and be exalted as god…
satanic islamic prophecy says… their Caliph/Mahdi will stand with Jesus (fake) on the Temple Mount and offer up prayers for the world…
Everything the Holy Bible warns… points directly to satanic islam…
There is no way a 17 year old is driving a Mercedes AMG like this Nahel was unless he stole it or was a valet parking it. Play stupid games; win stupid prizes. France is learning the hard way what people have been trying to tell it for decades. Quelle domage.
The primary reason why the West (France 1975 was the nucleus) imported a large Muslim population, with a guaranteed cultural autonomy, was to hide the radical Islamic groups among them. The radicals were brought in to spread fear through terror in the west so that the people would cede more and more of their freedoms to government to supposedly fight terrorism. Yet what has and is happening is that these powers ceded to the government are used to suppress and control the public. In short they have established totalitarian governments and changed the electoral processes to perpetuate their power. The reality is that the French government could clean it up overnight, like DeGaul did the Algerians in Paris in 1961. Macron will suppress the riots to the point where it will favor him in the polls, but will not eliminate the problem bc he needs the terror stick to keep the French in submission.
Thank you for this. It always seemed to me that something was being engineered here.
MASS IMMIGRATION France riots: Has the country imported its own problems?
WILL IT HAPPEN IN U.K.?
On Cam: Hundreds of Cars Gutted in France’s Marseille; Nearly 3,000 Vehicles Torched Amid Riots
I wonder how many of those burning cars had lithium batteries.
It’s the same play book the media did in the USA. This is by design. They want to turn western countries into third world countries. Why? Population control and depopulation.
That Muslim rioting in Paris , France isn’t limited to that nation. Such Islamic rioting occurs in the other countries of Europe as well .as in for example Germany, France, Sweden, Denmark Sweden Germany etc.
This unthankful Islamic spirit on the part of those lawless violent Muslims who immigrated to the countries of Europe may be explain, in part, by the fact that the Muslim fundamentalist group that even had the president of Egypt assassinated in the month of October of the year 1981 has a fifty –five booklet that is was written only for Muslims fundamentalists but was later discover by non-Muslims.
This booklet’s title is THE NEGLECTED DUTY. One scholar, Johannes Jansen who had thoroughly investigated Islam and Islamic terrorism has even discover that those Muslims, who had entered Europe of behaved in violent and heinous ways, are actually action out what they view and a sacred individual duty of the jihad as by engaging in awful violent criminal action in non-Muslim lands . As Jansen revealed that jihad booklet of Islam, THE NEGLECTED DUTY “contains all the ideological material needed to justify the attacks of 9/11 or any other acts of terror committed to frighten non-Muslims. And he thinks the document explains the criminal behavior of suburban and center –city immigrant youngsters in many European cities; its author clearly ‘sees Islam as license to kill rob and commit arson.’ “ [1]
Nevertheless, many of the apologists for Islam still have that blatant gall , in spite of all the facts of reality, to actually make the claim the Islam is a “peaceful religion.” What a totally false to make that Islam is “a peaceful religion “What Bull! A “peaceful religion” indeed.
[1] THE ISLAM IN ISLAMIC TERRORISM by Ibn Warraq pages 308, 309.
Those horrendously horrible riots in the city of Paris along with the arson extreme violence and murder that is also part of it does have the insidious hand of jihadist instigation in it a major way.
Another jihadist evil in a smaller way but still very tragic was an earlier Muslim terrorist vehicle murder of a young French woman is a evil and tragic reminder that ISIS had called for and is still is calling for “lone wolf” Islamic terrors attack in France.
Even before that heinous intentional vehicle jihad murder was that jihadist shooter and murderer in Strasbourg are revealing if the vicious nature of both ISIS and I slam of which the Islamic “state” is built upon. There were also those brutal murderous Islamic terror attacks of Charlie Hebdo and then later th ose jihad ISIS attack in Paris, France, on November 13, 2015 and then that Nice, France jihad murdering jihad attack. Then those vicious and murdering ISIS jihad terror attacks in Paris France on July 14, 2016. Even before those malicious ISIS jihad attacks an ISIS audio recording broadcasted on September 2014 declared “If you can kill a disbelieving American or European especially the spiteful and filthy French …kill him in any manner or way however it may be.” [1]
This alone exposes the vicious and malicious way of thinking of the jihadist who composes ISIS. The result of this wicked mindset where those heinously malice – filled jihad mindset was carried out by those by those Islamic jihadist deadly attacks in Paris and Nice. Furthermore the jihadists of ISIS sure have some gall calling the French “spiteful” since it’s the jihadist ISIS thugs who are so very spiteful that they murder people in many extremely cruel ways. Likewise, the ISIS savages have some gall calling the French “filthy” Since it’s the ISIS jihadist villains who the ones who are so lawless and vile that the kidnap and rape both girls and women.
Therefore, it’s only a matter of time before the people who the citizens of the nation of France
Experience the horrors of other Islamic terror attack or attacks. In another city of town of France. In other words, it’s not a matter of “if “but of “when.”
[1] THE ISIS CRISIS by Charles Dyer Page 44
The religious war of Islam continues, and don’t believe that they will ever live in peace with any other religion or peoples. The foolishness of governments has become their liability now.
The governments of this world WANT satanic islam as the world religion and world government… called Islamofascism…
Leftists CELEBRATE !
They need to hurt the ruling class, likely terrorize them.
Treat them as they treat you. Remember their treason is directed at your children. Let that idea circulate. The problem is these people are such pigs there is no real way to hurt them and they certainly will never have a conscience..
France is now reaping what it sowed. America is most likely going to face the same problem if we don’t get these traitorous jag-offs out of office and go back to being a Constitutional Republic.
The real French people better wake up real fast. Otherwise, you can kiss your country good-bye.
Well, the French ran from the Germans in May 1940, then ran from the Vietnamese communists in 1954, The Americans did not run from the Germans, but like the French, also ran from the Vietnamese communists 50 years ago in 1973. So they must have taken some sort of lesson from the French, even though toward the end they used the mighty B-52 to club their way to a peace agreement. Funny, it worked to an extent, the N. Viets eventually ran out of SAM-2/-3 AA missiles. They were also losing big chunks of Hanoi’s infrastructure, if I remember correctly. But the N. Viets then bided their time, they knew after the Americans departed they could rest, recuperate, and then regroup to execute the final effort to take southern Vietnam. Especially after the Americans also cut off aid to Saigon. Nowadays, the French run from the Muslim immigrants while Americans are coerced into running toward the LGBTQ/trans culture, for one thing. Throw in the fact that it is summer, and whoa, it is therefore hot, so what better time to ramp up the climate change scare and, say, ban coal-fired pizza ovens in New York City. Another sheer authoritarian leftist meme to berate Americans and others around the world with. The pinpricks against free peoples just keep coming, only certain to later morph into hammer blows.
