Europe
France Threated by Islamists
2004-03-16
Quelle surprise
French officials are investigating threats against France by a radical Islamic group, the Justice Ministry said Tuesday. The group identified itself as the "Servants of Allah the Powerful and Wise," the ministry said. It was unclear whether the group is known to French authorities. There was no initial indication of ties of Usama bin Laden’s Al Qaeda organization.
Like that matters. I suppose the thinking is that if the Islamic bastards who kill you aren’t directly connected to Al Qaeda, somehow you’re less dead.
The Paris prosecutor has opened an investigation.
Oh, that will scare them off. Sure it will.
The nature of the threats was not immediately disclosed. French Europe-1 radio reported that Le Parisien newspaper received a fax from the group, threatening attacks.
Fallout from the Spanish vote? Doesn’t matter - result’s the same. Look out, Europe - it’s coming. And soon. Maybe you should ask yourselves why they hate you.

#1  Actually,the group is called Movsar Barayev Commando (if there is a group) after the Chechen sicko who hijacked the Moscow movie theater in 2002.
