… as police arrest 'radicalised' vehicle owner

The 'radicalised' owner of a car found packed with gas cylinders close to Notre Dame cathedral has been arrested, police have revealed.

The vehicle, a Peugeot 607 without a licence plate, was found with its hazard lights flashing close to the landmark building in the heart of the French capital. Documents with writing in Arabic were also found in the car.

Police say the car's owner, who is now in custody, is on an intelligence services watchlist of people suspected of religious radicalisation.

Not a bad idea. They wouldn’t know which direction Mecca is anymore.

They’ll try and try again until they succeed.

If they don’t like western ideals, move the heck back to Islamic countries.

Darn Missouri Synod Lutherans again

Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, "Don't do it!" He said, "Nobody loves me." I said, "God loves you. Do you believe in God?"

He said, "Yes." I said, "Are you a Christian or a Jew?" He said, "A Christian." I said, "Me, too! Protestant or Catholic?" He said, "Protestant." I said, "Me, too! What franchise?" He said, "Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Baptist or Southern Baptist?" He said, "Northern Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist or Northern Liberal Baptist?"

He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region, or Northern Conservative Baptist Eastern Region?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region." I said, "Me, too!"

Northern Conservative†Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1879, or Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912." I said, "Die, heretic!" And I pushed him over.

Well certainly if I were going to perpetrate a major act of terrorism I would draw as much attention to my bobby trap as possible by removing it’s license plate and leaving the flashers on.

Just another inbred moron showing us how intelligent he is.

“Why the hell is this not also a list of people who have already been deported/imprisoned/killed?”

I agree completely. If this muslim was on a watch list and got as far as loading explosives in his car and leaving them near the Cathedral, I’d say the watch list is useless. We have to stop pussy-footing around with these animals.

I just left to go get a cup of coffee and I’ll be right back. Don’t remove my car because I have a job to complete.

So, when you park your car bomb, you put your emergency flashers on?

Common! He was just a nice man preparing for an upcoming Eid BBQ and lost his license plate on the way!

FYI, some Muslims celebrate Eid on 9/11 this year. Be prepared...

My first remark to my husband was "Unbelievable."

But I take that back. It's believable, all right --- what else would you expect? Islam is not a civilization: it's an assassin of civilizations. The historic Islamic lands are graveyards of civilizations.

They said they'll level Notre Dame --- just like they leveled the Bamayan Buddhas.

They whitewashed the glorious frescoes and murals of Hagia Sophia and turned it into a mosque and then a museum --- and soon to be a mosque again, I read: A muezzin's call to prayer reverberated inside Istanbul's sixth-century Hagia Sophia for the first time in 85 years on July 1 -Hurriyet Daily News-03-Jul-2016 (LINK)

But if they blow up Notre Dame, "laïcité" be damned, I think the French will kill them all.

I visited Notre Dame as a teenager in the early 1980s. Even though I did not believe in God at the time, I remember thinking that He surely must exist, because only a Supreme Deity would be capable of inspiring mere mortals to design and construct such a magnificent edifice. That is how profound an effect it had, merely entering that building and looking around.

If Notre Dame is destroyed, it would be a huge loss for our Christian patrimony and our Western culture. The Muslims know this, all too well, which is why they will keep on trying. Is their will to destroy us stronger than our desire to preserve the best of what we are?

How can this be??? Prez bush said this is a “religion of peace”? Surely our “leaders” wouldn’t lie to us.

I agree. Thank God the authorities in Paris caught these guys. Another bullet dodged. Stay vigilant, Paris...
