France: 719 arrests, rioters ram burning car into mayor’s home,

injuring his wife and children

Police make 719 arrests as France burns for a fifth night: Rioters ram mayor’s home with a burning car ‘in assassination attempt’ that left his wife and children injured as protests sparked by police ‘execution’ of boy, 17, escalate.

by Natasha Anderson, Daily Mail, July 2, 2023:

Rioters rammed a burning car into the home of a mayor of a town outside Paris, injuring his wife and child in what he has branded as an ‘assassination attempt’.

The attack in the early house (hours) of Sunday on Vincent Jeanbrun’s home in the Paris suburb of L’Hay-les-Roses came as 719 people were arrested in France following widespread rioting.

Mayor Vincent Jeanbrun wrote on Twitter that protesters had ‘rammed a car’ into his home before ‘setting a fire’ while his family slept. Following the attack, he vowed to ‘not back down’ and said his ‘determination to protect and serve the Republic is greater than ever’.

It was the fifth consecutive night of disturbances since the death of Nahel Merzouk, 17, who was allegedly ‘executed’ by police during a traffic stop.

He's certainly been executed, character-wise, by the media and the government without due process.

Merzouk’s death on Tuesday has spawned anger across the country. He was laid to rest Saturday in a Muslim ceremony in his hometown of Nanterre, a Paris suburb where emotion over his loss remains raw.

The fast-spreading chaos is posing a new challenge to President Emmanuel Macron’s leadership and exposing deep-seated discontent in low-income (read - Muslim) neighbourhoods over discrimination and lack of opportunity.

Mr Jeanbrun said his wife and one of his children were injured in the ram-raid, which he believed was attempted murder.

He said: ‘Last night, a milestone was reached in horror and ignominy. My home was attacked and my family was the victim of an assassination attempt.

‘At 1:30 a.m., while I was at the town hall, as for the past three nights, individuals launched a car at my home before setting it on fire, so as to set fire to my house, in which my wife was sleeping and my two young children.

‘All of this was skillfully orchestrated, without consideration for the lives inside the house.’…

Or, worse, maybe with consideration for the lives inside the house.

France: ‘It’s one thing to read about it, another to see it

with your own eyes’

I arrived in Paris yesterday and traveled to a city in the south of France. It’s one thing to read about it, another to see it with your own eyes. I walked through the streets of that southern city today. Shops destroyed, emptied of all contents: Swarovski, Orange, Apple stores. Most stores now boarded up. Will they dare to open on Monday? I don’t know. So far, 100 million euros of damage has been estimated; the amount is bound to rise.

An attempt to burn down the house of a mayor in the north; he happened to be at his office, but his wife and two small children were inside and escaped — just barely — with their lives.

About 50,000 extra police now on the streets. The Macron government still refuses to declare a state of emergency as politicians to his right have demanded.  

Macron condemned the policeman — a much decorated officer, with several medals for bravery — as guilty of an “inexplicable” and “unforgivable” act.  As far as the policeman is concerned, there is no presumption of innocence.

The presumption of innocence is another victim of Islamic hysteria. Macron has a lot to lose by throwing his policemen under the bus.

With ‘Allahu-akbar’ shouts: Anti-Semitic attack at Holocaust memorial

Translated from “Unter “Allahu-akbar”-Rufen: Antisemitischer Angriff bei Holocaust-Gedenkstätte,”

by René Rabeder, Exxpress, June 29, 2023

Shocking, disgusting and cowardly: A group of “youths” attacked Jewish visitors to the Holocaust memorial in Frankfurt today, Thursday. Only verbally at first, then even bottles flew. The perpetrators kept shouting “Allahu akbar.”

Particularly precarious: 25 guests from all over the world were at the memorial when the attack took place. It was a visitor program for children and grandchildren of Jews who were born in Frankfurt and were persecuted. It commemorates the deportation of Frankfurt Jews during the National Socialist era – and gave an impression of what Germany will be like in 2023.

Mayor Mike Josef (SPD) was horrified in the FAZ: “This is completely unacceptable.” The incident proves that the “fight against anti-Semitism and racism is an ongoing one, unfortunately also in our city.”

Authorities are investigating fugitive offenders

A city employee is said to have rebuked the cowardly anti-Semitic attackers. The “FAZ” reports from Frankfurt that the perpetrators then apologized and then fled. The state security determined because of attempted serious bodily harm. (??)

Protesters break into Swedish embassy in Baghdad

after Stockholm Quran burning

by Mostafa Salem, CNN, June 29, 2023

Demonstrators breached the perimeter of the Swedish embassy in Baghdad Thursday, a day after a protester (an Iraqi migrant) burned a copy of the Quran (after filling it with bacon) in Sweden.

The protests in the Iraqi capital were ordered by the powerful Iraqi Shia cleric, Muqtada al-Sadr, who also called for the expulsion of the Swedish ambassador in Baghdad.

Videos circulating on social media showed some protesters climbing over a barricaded wall outside the embassy. It is unclear how far into the building they got, before withdrawing….

An Iraqi security source confirmed to CNN that the incident was over. The AFP news agency reported that the protestors were inside the compound for about 15 minutes.

The protests in Baghdad came after an incident in the Swedish capital, Stockholm, on Wednesday, when a man burned a copy of Islam’s holy book outside a mosque. Images of the event showed he was the only person apart from his translator at the demonstration, which coincided with the Muslim holiday of Eid-al-Adha, one of the most significant in the Islamic calendar.

Al Sadr demanded authorities withdraw the Iraqi nationality of Salwan Momika – the organizer of the one-man Quran protest in Stockholm – who immigrated to left Iraq for Sweden five years ago.

“If freedom of speech is guaranteed to Iraq and the world, then the believers have to express their views on the burning of the holy books… through massive angry protests against the Swedish embassy in Iraq,” Al Sadr said….
