“Sources said he had worked in a section of the police service dedicated to collecting information on jihadist radicalisation.” No one would have dared question his placement in that section. To have done so would have been “Islamophobic.” The fear of charges of “Islamophobia” paralyzes counterterror efforts all over the West; this is a quintessential […]
France: Muslim who killed 4 was subject of counterterror report in 2015, wife told him “Only Allah will judge you”
