Muslim Who Stabbed Tourists Near Eiffel Tower Was Already Convicted of Terrorism By Daniel Greenfield

Robert Spencer : Good thing they let him out.  Saturday was a busy day for Islam. Apart from the usual Hamas stuff, a Catholic mass was bombed in the Philippines, a Christmas market attack plot was broken up in Germany, and over in France, there was blood and shouts of “Allahu Akbar” near the Eiffel Tower.

A terrorist, who murdered a German man and injured two other tourists near the Eiffel Tower in Paris, yelled “Allahu Akbar, Arabic for “Allah is superior.” The killer murdered the German man with a knife, and attacked two others with a hammer.

The suspect told police “he was upset because ‘so many Muslims are dying in Afghanistan and in Palestine’ and was also upset about the Gaza situation,” per the French minister. The suspect was sentenced to four years in jail in 2016 for planning another attack, the BBC reported.

Good thing they let him out.

While the official word is that this Muslim terrorist, like every single previous Muslim terrorist in France, is suffering from “mental illness”, (a condition defined in France as being brought on by smoking pot and reading the Koran), he’s got a history.

According to French sources, the Islamic terrorist was born to Iranian immigrants, he had been sentenced to 5 years in prison for his previous terror plot in 2016, got out in 4 years and was sent to therapy, instead of being deported.

Since July 2022, French authorities were aware that he was back to his old habits, but they did nothing. The media narrative will be that this poor crazy man snapped on seeing the coverage of Israel’s campaign against Hamas. The problem with this narrative is that the Muslim settler had already turned to terrorism 7 years ago.

He became a devout Muslim yet French authorities insisted on viewing this as a mental problem rather than a terrorist threat. That mistake cost a man his life. And it’s not a new mistake, it’s a typical one in France.
