| Normandy: Jihadist Mosque Next Door to Beheaded Priest’s Church | ||
| 2016-07-27 | ||
| [BREITBART] The more details that emerge surrounding the gruesome lethal attack on a priest in northern La Belle France Tuesday, the more it appears that the attack could have been foreseen and perhaps prevented. On Tuesday morning, two jihadists associated with the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... entered the parish church of Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray in Normandy while 84-year-old Father Jacques Hamel was celebrating Mass in the company of several members of the parish. The assailants seized Father Hamel and slit his throat before taking the other members of the congregation as hostages. It turns out that the parish Church of Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray, the site of the assault, was on an Islamic State hit list recovered from suspected jihadist Sid Ahmed Ghlam, in April 2015. The 24-year-old Ghlam was tossed in the clink Drop the rod and step away witcher hands up! by French police, who believe he was a terrorist planning imminent attacks in La Belle France under the direction of Islamic State leaders. At the time, an arsenal of weapons was discovered in Ghlam’s car as well as at his student residence, which included Kalashnikov rifles, a police-issue pistol, and a number of bullet-proof vests. Ghlam is currently in a high-security prison awaiting trial for numerous crimes including murder, attempted murder, association with criminals with a view to commit crimes and other infractions connected to a terrorist organization. After the arrest, police discovered a list of Catholic sites to be targeted by Islamic State terrorists, which included the location of Tuesday’s attack. The beautiful sixteenth-century church of Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray is a French heritage monument, to which a tower was added in the 17th century. More importantly, the church also "happened" to be right next door to the Yahiya mosque of Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray, whose best-known worshiper was the notorious French jihadist executioner Maxime Hauchard. A connection that would be labeled 'entirely coincidental' in the States. Hauchard, who appeared in a video of the beheading of American aid worker Peter Kassig and 18 Syrian military captives in 2014, converted to Islam at the age of 17 and frequented the mosque of Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray, a stone’s throw from the parish church. Several years ago, Islamic State recruiters contacted and enlisted Hauchard, who became involved in the 2014 takeover of djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... . "My personal goal is martyrdom, obviously," Hauchard said in a television interview. Once in Syria, Hauchard changed his name to Abu Abdallah el Faransi and announced that he wanted to help gunnies found an Islamic caliphate. On leaving the church Tuesday morning, the two turbans shouted "Allahu Akhbar" before being shot by police, according to an eyewitness identified only as "Sylvie." The Islamic State has grabbed credit for the attack, saying it was their soldiers who carried out the barbaric assault.
French authorities admitted that both Kermiche and his partner were subject to security 'S' files, meaning they were known terror suspects who should have been under surveillance. Parisian prosecutor Francois Molins revealed that the pair were carrying a fake bomb with a timer, a backpack full of fake guns and 'a kitchen knife' during the attack, and said they used nuns as human shields. In a press conference, he said police are still seeking to identify the second attacker and raids were underway. A third man, a 16-year-old known as HB and believed to be the younger brother of someone wanted by police for trying to go to Syria or Iraq in 2015, was arrested at his home in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray following the attack. Will the search for the killer's motivation continue ? Mosque in French town where priest killed was inaugurated on land gifted by church
"It is a total shock, it brings back the pain,” said Ibn Ziaten’s mother Latifa, who launched an association to fight Islamic radicalization after her son’s death. Like other towns around the city of Rouen, Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray has a growing problem with radicalization, she added. “There are a lot of families that come and see me because their children are radicalizing,” she said. | ||
