The Islamic terror attack by an illegal immigrant from the former colony further entrenches bitter diplomatic relations.

When, once again, innocent French people were attacked by yet another knife-wielding North African, the country’s shock and sorrow soon gave way to anger at the suspect’s native country, Algeria. France was still reeling from the killing spree of Brahim Abdessemed in the Alsatian town of Mulhouse on Feb. 22, when its minister of the interior, Bruno Retailleau, had the unenviable task of informing the nation that he and his predecessor had vainly tried to extradite the man to Algeria no fewer than fourteen times.

Islamist terrorism is the greatest threat this country faces, says former anti-extremism tsar Lord Walney

Just a matter of weeks ago, Lord Walney was serving in the heart of Government.

But then he had the disconcerting experience of being sacked by some of his oldest friends.

The peer and former Labour MP, who served for over four years as the Government’s independent adviser on political violence and extremism, was told in February by former party comrades at the Home Office that his job no longer existed.

I’m sure it will receive Royal approval.

Islamic blasphemy laws have arrived in Europe. Two men in Britain have been arrested in the space of month for allegedly burning the Koran. Both were apparently acting in solidarity with Salwan Momika, an Iraqi refugee and outspoken atheist, who was murdered last month in Sweden while burning the Muslim holy book. Had the Islamist mob not got to him first, he would have stood trial for his supposed blasphemy. Either way, he would have been silenced.

“Islamonazi” and “Islamofascist” reveal ignorance of Islam, which encompasses much more than Nazism or fascism ever could. Contrary to common assumptions, such terms downplay the nightmare that is Islam. It is easy to fall into seeing Islam as “just another religion” and perceive those of its adherents who wouldn’t hurt a fly as practising a milder variant of the religion of their more bloodthirsty brethren.

Some non-Muslims even do their “moderate” Muslim friends the favour of expelling their “extremist” counterparts out of the category “Muslim” and relegating them to a new category, “Islamists”, who, once so expelled, no longer practise Islam, but “Islamism”. In this simplistic mind-game, the proponents of “Islamism” have yet to identify the Islamist scripture that is not a Muslim scripture, an Islamist ritual that is not a Muslim ritual, the Islamist doctrine that is not a Muslim doctrine, the Islamist prophet who is not the Muslim prophet and the Islamist Allah who is not the Muslim Allah. When they “clarify” that Muslims want to live in peace, while “Islamists” want to take over the state, they merely confirm their ignorance of Islam.

German prosecutors on Thursday charged the suspect behind a fatal knife attack at a local festival in the western German city of Solingen.

The suspect, identified as 26-year-old Issa Al H., was charged with three counts of murder, 10 counts of attempted murder and membership in the “Islamic State” (IS) terror group.

The Solingen knife attack and a series of similar incidents shook Germany and fueled the heated political debate about migration and deportation in the months leading up to last week’s federal election.

As millions of Germans get ready to celebrate the annual pre-Lent carnival season, police have increased security after a spate of deadly attacks and have warned the public not to dress up as police officers or carry replica guns as part of their costumes.

The city of Cologne, one of the main bastions of the Karneval traditions, has said it will deploy all available officers on the streets starting on Thursday, Weiberfastnacht or Old Wives’ Day, when the week-long season starts in earnest. There are street parties and women are allowed to cut off men’s ties and storm town halls with impunity.
