This time last month a mob of Muslim protesters attacked a French police station in Trappes and injured several officers. The ostensible issue was the detaining of a Muslim woman for violating the ban on face veils.
However, the real reason for their culturally enriched response was obvious: the incident provided a golden opportunity for the Muslim community in Trappes to display its belligerence, its propensity for violence in support of Shariah, and its dominance over the local organs of the secular French state.
Now, a month later, Muslim women are recasting what happened as yet another example of prejudice, discrimination, and “hate” directed at poor Muslim victims by French infidels.

On a related note, consider these Swedish feminists who showed their solidarity for their victimized Muslima sisters by wearing the hijab.

| 00:00 | Since the latest events in Trappes, we don’t feel safe anymore, its clear. | |
| 00:04 | And we have walked, because of this, today to say that we… | |
| 00:08 | are Muslims, but we are above all are French citizens… | |
| 00:12 | and I am well positioned to say so because usually I don’t wear this costume… | |
| 00:16 | today we are Friday so I have gone to the mosque and | |
| 00:20 | like all Fridays, and since I have worn this outfit… | |
| 00:24 | and normally I wear jogging pants or just normal pants and see… | |
| 00:28 | the attitude people have towards me when I am dressed in so called civilian… | |
| 00:32 | is not the same at all as when I am dressed in this getup. And that is what is saddening. | |
| 00:36 | A heavy stare … | |
| 00:40 | I feel the heavy stare of denigration | |
| 00:44 | and there are also words because people don’t content themselves with just staring. | |
| 00:48 | Now today, they have really become confident because Islamophobia is part of … | |
| 00:52 | the French landscape. | |
| 00:56 | Today people are not afraid anymore. They are overtly Islamophobic. |

Back home now… and I still think that rural France is a better place to be than anywhere in England…
Which is anyway irrelevant to my point, but maybe someone reading this will know what I am talking about.
Now, to get to what this comment is really about; the ‘why is everybody picking on me sob’: “the attitude people have towards me when I am dressed in so called civilian… is not the same at all as when I am dressed in this getup.”
This bleat reminds me of an incident from years ago. I was at work. We’d got the new (or was it the first?) Head of Equality visiting, explaining how reality really was and how most of us, even though we hadn’t yet realised, had it wrong. To illustrate the point she was making, something to do with racism – of course, she recalled how she’d been walking through a northern English working class area in her finest African garb (ostentatious colourful robes, not grass skirt) and was shocked at the way people stared at her. There you go. You set out to cause a stir, and then feign upset at the stir you’ve caused. It’s a classic third world tactic designed to take advantage of white folks’ objectivity and concern for the underdog.
And it’s one Muzlims in particular employ for all it’s worth.
On the positive side, it seems the French worm is beginning to turn. “I feel the heavy stare of denigration and there are also words because people don’t content themselves with just staring. Now today, they have really become confident because Islamophobia is part of … the French landscape. Today people are not afraid anymore. They are overtly Islamophobic.”
Vive la France!
Maybe it’s a sign that the European worm is beginning to turn – and why not? It’s about time.
If I walked out in public in an Islamic country dressed in a western sun dress or shorts and a halter top not only would people stare and probably make threatening remarks but I would probably be arrested.
Somehow it never works the other way. This is the west. Dress accordingly and assimilate or go to a country where your style of garb is the norm.
I am not saying that Islamic women should run around in sun dresses but the black pup tent indicates that you reject our culture.
This morning, I read the Swedish Hijab story in Dagens Nyheter – leading newspaper in Sweden. The initiative was taken by Gudrun Schymann, a very well known personality in the country. The years 1993-2003, Ms Schymann was the leader of Vänsterpartiet, the former Communist party (Vänster = Left). Since then she has been working “feministically” and started the party Feministiskt Initiativ.
A 20 year old pregnant muslim woman – already mother of four children – was allegedly – N.B.!! – attacked by a Swedish man because of her hijab (No injuries reported.).
A few MoP joined Ms Schymann wearing Hijab in this “solidarity action”.
The story is typical for the Sweden I have chosen to leave for good. You’ll find this distortion of reality (Lying) everywhere in the society. Where is the “solidarity” with the thousands of muslim women who are stoned to death because of their “inappropriate” clothings?
Personally, I think the media intelligent Ms Schymann is rather entertaining. One of her many quotes: “Män är djur” (Men are animals). But one mustn’t forget that her influence is not negligible.
Where are all the feminists in the Counter Jihad movement? Shouldn’t they go in the Front Line Swinging their Banners?
I have started to write a little comparison between Islam and Feminism. But I lack some material where feminists expressively support Islam. Maybe you can help me, Baron?
…and everywhere that Islam went, chaos was sure to follow…
“Today people are not afraid anymore. They are overtly Islamophobic”.
Vive la Génération Identitaire! Vive la France!
“Today people are not afraid anymore. They are overtly Islamophobic.”
Man, I hope so. But I take the truthfulness of this comment with some skepticism. Remember who the speaker is, a Muslima. So she’s singing a “Poor Me” or “Poor Muslims” tune to evoke sympathy.

I feel the heavy threat …
I feel the heavy threat of terrorism, sharia, and Islamization.
Winston Churchill on Islam
“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy.
“The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity.
“The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.
“Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities – but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world.

Oh dear, Goethe…the heavy stare of WHAT??
That a racist code word. To say de***ration out loud could cost your job. As it did a few years ago for a local politician in Washington D.C. He was later reinstated, but I’ll bet he’s toilet-trained now. NO words in which the three letters *** appear in a menacing row are permitted.
Then there was the area councilman in Texas taken to task for daring to say that the budget was “in the black”.
And “devil’s food cake”? Don’t even look up the recipe in your cookbook where anyone can see you.
Michelle Malkin had a list last year which was quite entertaining, but the BGI keeps expanding the Verboten lexicon so there’s no way to avoid it except through maintaining silence…which is the whole idea, me thinks.
It seems like a racist codeword doesn’t it?
Often, from historians I hear:
“The democracy of whites depended on the degradation of blacks.”
And the biggest tragedy is that they actually believe what they are saying.
Southern planters would have no trouble agreeing with them.
I have one question: does that mean that liberal historical thinking dictates that all democracy requires some kind of exclusionism?
Is it the tyranny of whites one day and the tyranny of non-whites the next?
If this is the case, and it looks like liberal intellectuals are headed in that direction, then they are the most committed acolytes of totalitarianism the world has ever seen.
Hitler, Mao and Stalin have nothing on them!
To say de***ration out loud could cost your job.
I don’t know what you are talking about. May I have another hint or, just simply print the word without commentary.
the three letters *** appear in a menacing row are permitted.
Again, I can’t follow you.
but the BGI keeps expanding the Verboten lexicon so there’s no way to avoid it except through
Who and what are the BGI? You speak in such code that a long time reader can’t follow you.
The letters ‘n-i-g’, as in “niggardly”.
You feel the “heavy stare of denigration” when you dress up in the black “outfit”. Diddums! Ohh, you poor dear.
Whenever I dress up in a pink cocktail dress and high heels and walk the streets of suburban Sydney, I too feel the heavy stare of denigration (but perhaps that’s only because I’m very hairy and don’t wax). Why should I expect otherwise? Why should “BMOs” [Black Mobile Objects] expect otherwise in western countries?
Seriously, if one were to walk the streets of any Muslim part of my city wearing a Star of David or a tee-shirt that stated “I love Israel” one would, very quickly, feel the heavy … blow of a tire iron cleaving one’s skull in two. Or a knife in one’s back.
This bleating nincompoop should count herself lucky that all she gets is heavy stares of denigration whilst wearing 7th century desert garb in 21st century France. Worn for overtly political reasons, ie I repudiate the values of the country whose welfare system enables me and my husband (and his other three wives) to have half a dozen kids and not work to feed, house and educate them.
