- French
Catholicism is now witnessing a tragic decline, caught between two
fires: state secularism and political Islam.
- Le Figaro wondered if
Islam can already be considered "France's prime religion".
- Muslim countries
are generously funding France's mosques, covering an average of 50%
of total costs.
- "Avignon
is no longer the city of the Popes, but of the Salafis. ... They
[Muslim extremists] urge us to rewrite the history of France in the
light of the 'contribution of the Islamic civilization'" —
Philippe De Villiers, author of Will the Church Bells Ring
Tomorrow?
- The trend
indicates that in France, there are currently three young practicing
Muslims for every young practicing Catholic.
- "It is
conceivable that Islam is overtaking Catholicism". — Osservatore
Romano, the Vatican official daily newspaper.
Will France soon forbid the ringing of Notre Dame's
bells? It happened already in Boissettes, and on the
outskirts of Metz, where the bells of the church of Sainte Ruffine have
been forced by the state authorities to keep silent. Meanwhile, the
muezzin's calls to Islamic prayer continue to broadcast. (Images source:

A new book is shaking France. Les cloches sonneront-elles encore
demain? ("Will the Church Bells Ring Tomorrow?"), by
Philippe de Villiers, is shattering the nation. France, the "eldest
daughter" of the Catholic Church, is instead turning into "the
eldest daughter of Islam". "With arrogance, they [Muslim
extremists] urge us to rewrite the history of France in the light of the
'contribution of the Islamic civilization'", de Villiers states.
De Villiers points out that:
"France has experienced many misfortunes in its history. But
for the first time, it must face the fear of disappearing. In France,
there are two groups: a new people who move with pride and an exhausted
people, who are not even aware of the conditions needed for their own
survival".

- An appeal would
have sent a signal to potential terrorists that Danish authorities
look sternly upon logistical assistance to terrorists, and will do
everything in their power to pursue justice.
- The only one at
risk of actual harm is Lars Hedegaard himself: his attempted
murderer remains at large. "I have resorted to making the
suspected assassin's name as well-known as possible in
self-defense."
- It is deeply
disturbing, not only for the victims, but for all citizens, when the
courts so clearly divorce themselves from pursuing what most citizens
would perceive as justice, and instead appear to favor those who
seek to harm society.
- Refusing to
implicate Omar El-Hussein's friends in his terrorism, despite their
obvious contributions to his terror deeds, and fining the victim of
a terrorist attack for publicly naming his would-be murderer, who
escaped justice by fleeing the country, inevitably appears like a
mockery of justice, not its fulfillment.
Denmark's high court upheld a fine levied against Lars
Hedegaard, because he wrote the name of the man who tried to murder him,
in violation of a court order suppressing the name of the terrorist, who
is still at large and wanted by police.
If the legal system in Denmark is anything to go by, being an
accessory to murder is just fine. Attackers are protected to the hilt;
their victims are left unprotected and fined.
In February 2015, the terrorist Omar El-Hussein murdered Danish film
director Finn Nørgaard in front of café Krudttønden in Copenhagen. Later
that night, he killed a Jewish guard in front of the Copenhagen
synagogue. Danish police shot and killed El-Hussein during the subsequent
manhunt.
