When Nuance Isn't Enough

Given how much France has sided with Islamists--siding with Hizbollah against Israel, refusing to fight in Afghanistan, running interference for Saddam--you'd think they'd earn some credit with jihadi nutballs.

You'd be wrong, of course:

In the last 18 months, French police have arrested 76 people for Islamic terrorist activity, and aborted at least three terror attacks. But the French police believe that there are still hundreds of former Algerian terrorists in France, and many of them are still active. Al Qaeda, which has absorbed GSPC, is desperate for another big attack in Europe, and the former GSPC terrorists appear to be the most likely to pull something off.


You'd be wrong because you believe that the jihadis try to kill us based on some particular grievance. The grievances cited are just an excuse. They are so unimportant to the jihadis that they just lift them from Michael Moore movies.

In the end, to the jihadis, French infidels are just as worthy of death as American infidels. If not, French police wouldn't be so busy arresting jihadis in France.

Come on France! Join us!
