France: Muslims enter church during Mass, scream “Allahu akbar”
The faithful were “taken aback.” How “Islamophobic” of them! Apparently the English-language establishment media’s full-court press a few years ago to convince Americans that “Allahu akbar” was a benign phrase didn’t get echoed in the French establishment media.
In the New York Daily News. Zainab Chaudry of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) argued that non-Muslims shouldn’t “believe the worst” about “Allahu akbar” because Muslims don’t just scream it while murdering non-Muslims, but use it in a variety of contexts. She even offered this chilling advice, certain to get people killed were it ever heeded: “So the next time you hear Allahu Akbar — whether it’s in a media report, on an airplane, or in a shopping mall, remember that the phrase used by millions of Muslims and Christians daily to praise God regardless of their circumstances, can never be justified for use when harming His creation.” So stay put, evidently; fleeing would be “Islamophobic.”
On CNN, Omar Suleiman — the imam who prevailed upon Google to alter their search results so as to bury any negative information about Islam — also argued that Muslims say “Allahu akbar” in a variety of contexts, many of them positive. And the New York Times actually tweeted that the phrase “Allahu akbar” had “somehow” become “intertwined with terrorism.”
Somehow! How could this have possibly happened? Could it have anything to do with the thousands of Muslims who have screamed “Allahu akbar” while in the process of murdering infidels?
“He shouts ‘Allah Akbar’ during Mass at Saint-Epvre Basilica,” translated from “Il crie ‘Allah Akbar’ pendant la messe à la basilique Saint-Epvre,” L’Est Républicain, October 22, 2019 (thanks to David):
Monday evening in the basilica of Saint-Epvre in Nancy, the Office was disturbed by two individuals. Drunk, the two men entered the basilica around 7 pm and one of them shouted: “Allah Akbar”.The faithful were at least taken aback, and alerted the police. Very quickly on the scene, a patrol of the municipal police determined that the two men were intoxicated. After a security search, one of them was found to be carrying a telescopic baton.The two suspects, aged 26 and 32, were then taken into custody by the national police and placed in police custody as part of an investigation that may involve the carrying of weapons and the justification of terrorism….“Two to three people actually heard an individual pronounce Allah Akbar, which remains to be confirmed in interrogation”, confirms the prosecutor of Nancy…
