Whilst it is wise to refrain from labelling an attack ‘terrorist’ until we have the facts, the media are distorting and denying various aspects of the recent attacks in Europe, particularly Germany.
Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson came under attack from The Guardian and Liberal Democrat foreign affairs spokesman Tom Brake for saying that the recent Munich mall attack on Friday, July 22, was related to terrorism.
In fact, this is what he said from New York where he met with US Secretary of State John Kerry (emphases mine):
If, as seems very likely, this is another terrorist incident, then I think it proves once again that we have a global phenomenon and a global sickness that we have to tackle both at the source – in the areas where the cancer is being incubated in the Middle East – and also of course around the world.
That quote comes from the same Guardian article that accuses Johnson of jumping the gun in labelling the Munich incident as terror-related. Nine people died. The attacker, an 18-year-old German of Iranian extraction, then killed himself.
Since then, the name of the attacker — Ali Sonboly — has been distorted to David Ali Sonboly. That is a BBC link, but I have also seen it on other news outlets where it sometimes appears as Ali David Sonboly. Thankfully, a BBC viewer tweeted in response that the perpetrator’s name is, in fact, Ali Davood Sonboly.
Note the progression from Ali Sonboly to David Ali Sonboly or Ali David Sonboly, when his real name was Ali Davood Sonboly.
You know, we cannot call this what it is or call the attackers by their right names because people might be offended.
The result will be that low info viewers, of which the BBC have many, will be under the impression that this lad was someone he wasn’t. These viewers take the BBC at their word.
I know a lot of people who believe that BBC reports are completely trustworthy because they were 40 or 50 years ago. Folks, the BBC have moved on since then, ever leftward, ever economical with the truth. Their report on Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s resignation on Sunday, July 24, was but another example.
On July 18, three days before Sonboly’s attack in Munich, another adolescent — an ‘unaccompanied’ 17-year-old Afghan asylum seeker who had been living with a foster family in Germany — went on a rampage on a train in northern Bavaria. He took an axe and a knife to 20 passengers. Three were seriously hurt and one sustained ‘light injuries’. All four were from the same family — tourists from Hong Kong who had been enjoying a delightful holiday prior to the attack, including the wedding of an immediate family member in Britain.
The ’17-year old’ (he looked older), whom police shot dead soon afterwards, was reported to have shouted:
“Allahu Akbar” before the attack and investigators believed he had a become ‘self-radicalised’ Muslim.
The same report, from The Mirror, has a video of him wherein IS claimed responsibility:
The teenage ISIS terrorist who launched the terrifying axe attack has been named by Bild as Riaz Khan Ahmadzai, also known as Muhammad Riyad, and he left a suicide note revealing chilling details of his plot, it was reported …
Although police have yet to confirm his identity, a video released by ISIS claims to show him delivering a speech in Pashto to the camera while holding a knife.
The video calls him ‘a soldier of the Islamic State who carried out the Wurzburg attack’.
The video appears to show Riyad saying he would ‘slaughter infidels’ with the knife he holds up to the camera.
He says: “I am a soldier of the caliphate and I am going to carry out an suicide attack in Germany.
“O Kufar, the time has passed when you would come to our homeland and kill our men, our women and our children. And your apostate rulers were silent about these massacres …
The rest of the quote is at the link. A Shanghai paper has more information with links to other media reports.
On Sunday, July 24, a 21-year-old Syrian refugee killed a 45-year-old pregnant Polish lady with a machete in southern Germany. He argued with her around 4:30 p.m. then hacked her to death. He also injured two other people. German authorities imply it was a lone wolf attack, nothing more. They also said that others in the vicinity should not feel threatened. The man is in police custody. Deutsche Presse-Agentur reported on Monday that the two were colleagues and worked in a restaurant. Authorities are unclear when the man arrived in Germany. This was the third act of violence in Germany within 10 days.
The fourth took place that evening. A 27-year old Syrian who had been refused asylum in Germany — and admission to a music festival because he had no ticket — lashed out in the Bavarian town of Ansbach. He had a rucksack with metal items in it used in ‘wood manufacturing’, as authorities put it. He blew himself up outside a local wine bar, the impact of which injured 12 people, three of whom are in serious condition. Few in authority wish to comment further as I write on Monday, although Bavarian interior minister, Joachim Herrmann, said (emphasis in the original):
it was likely the attack was the work of an “Islamist” suicide bomber.
Yet (emphases mine):
Bavarian police said it was unclear if the attacker was Islamist.
The attacker was due to be deported to Bulgaria and had received two deportation orders, the most recent of which was on July 13. Bulgaria was his first safe country of entry.
Patrons of the wine bar were initially told the explosion was caused by a gas leak!
Pity Bavaria, which has had to take in so many refugees and migrants, particularly during the past year.
On Thursday, July 21, the day before the Munich attack, Konstantin Richter wrote a guest post for The Guardian. He gave more information about the train attacker and migration to Germany in general. Excerpts follow:
There are almost 70,000 unaccompanied children living in Germany, and he happened to be one of them. For two weeks prior to the attack he’d been staying with a foster family. He had also started an internship at a local bakery. In the best of all possible worlds, he would have gone from intern to trainee and then to certified German baker. He could have been a role model …
When Germany’s Willkommenskultur (welcome culture) was still in full swing, its advocates argued that Isis would not dare to target a nation that generously opened its borders to those in need. They also thought refugees coming to Germany would feel such enormous gratitude that they couldn’t possibly turn against their host country. Truth be told, I thought so too, but it doesn’t sound right any more.
The refugees who entered Germany had high hopes. Smugglers told them they’d prosper and find jobs instantly. Now they are languishing in asylum-seeker centres and struggling with bureaucracy, uncertain whether they can stay at all. Many of them are young men who are homesick, angry and frustrated, and extremists are deliberately visiting their homes because they know they are fertile ground for recruiting.
… advocates of Willkommenskultur have been on the losing side of the public debate since the events that unfolded in Cologne on New Year’s Eve. They’d be well advised to acknowledge that the open-door asylum policy was overly idealistic, and that they underestimated some of the challenges posed by mass migration.
Meanwhile in France, a policewoman in Nice is at loggerheads with the French government over a report a central government department asked her to prepare concerning the attack on Bastille Day, July 14.
In an interview to a Sunday newspaper, Sandra Bertin said she was in charge of the CCTV room that night. She did not see any national police on duty where the lorry entered the Promenade des Anglais, where the attack with the lorry took place. Local police were unarmed. Bertin says that had they been better armed — like the national police — they would have had a decent chance at stopping the lorry by shooting at the tyres.
National police were stationed further along and were able to stop the lorry by shooting at the windscreen. By then, for 84 people, it was too late.
The next day — Friday — Bertin filed a report, by request, to the CSU (Centre for Urban Supervision), a department of the Interior Ministry but not that of the Interior Minister himself, Bernard Cazeneuve.
She had a difficult telephone conversation with someone who ‘harrassed’ her for an hour asking for specific details of the scene, including the position of the national police. Eventually, Bertin was able to get permission to compile a written report:
“I told her I would only write what I had seen. Perhaps the national police were there, but I didn’t see them on the cameras,” Bertin said.
Bertin, who, incidentally, is secretary general of a Nice public servants union, sent her report electronically.
A few days later, the antiterrorist branch visited her office requesting that she destroy the CCTV tapes she had from that night. She said in her newspaper interview that was because they feared the public might see the tapes.
Officials in Nice have refused to destroy them.
Paris public prosecutor François Molins, whose office is overseeing the investigation, says that the officials visiting Bertin’s office only wanted to see the evidence for themselves.
Interior Minister Cazeneuve said he and his office had no direct involvement in these events. Bertin might be asked to submit to questioning by him or a representative. Even worse, he is suing her for defamation over ‘serious accusations’ she allegedly made against him.
There is a party-political aspect to this. The administration is Socialist. The Agglomeration of Nice is run by the right-of-centre Les Républicains, led locally by Nice’s long-time mayor Christian Estrosi.
From the off, Estrosi said the police protection was woefully inadequate on July 14.
On Tuesday, July 26, a Catholic Mass was brutally interrupted in a town near Rouen in Normandy. Two men, armed with knives, entered the church at Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray shouting ‘Daesh!’ A subsequent report said, ‘Allah akbar!’ One man had a beard, the other was wearing a prayer cap. They took five people hostage and slit the throat of the priest celebrating morning Mass. He died. A nun, Sister Danielle, was able to slip out of the church and call police. Security forces arrived quickly and fatally shot the two men. The article from l’Internaute (linked to above) said this was ‘very likely’ a ‘terrorist attack’. (It is the sort of attack that takes place on churches in Muslim-majority countries.)
Honest reporting. It will be interesting to see what the major French newspapers say. Let’s hope they do not name the attackers ‘Antoine’ and ‘Jean-Pierre’.
Except if it is Maxime, as in Maxime Hauchard, now Abu Abdullah al-Faransi, who — possibly still in Syria since 2013, according to The Mirror — indirectly collaborated in this gruesome act with Adel Kermiche, according to the Daily Mail.
L’Internaute had a live column of what happened in the immediate aftermath. The priest was 86-year-old Revd Jacques Hamel, ordained in 1958. Someone would have to be pathological to murder an elderly priest, especially in such a horrifying manner. A nun who was helping him at the altar was seriously injured. Some of the other hostages also required medical treatment. Police told those living in the immediate vicinity to stay indoors.
Word of the attack soon reached those at the Catholic World Youth Day events being held in Krakow. The Pope, who is in in the Polish city, expressed his ‘pain and horror’. Archbishop LeBrun of Rouen returned to France and his Vicar General took his place in Krakow. The Vicar General went to the scene of the attack immediately. François Hollande and Bernard Cazeneuve arrived shortly afterwards.
The live report states that this church was on the target list of Sid Ahmed Ghlam, 24, the extremist who intended to murder Catholics coming out of Sunday Mass in April 2015 in suburban Paris. Instead, he murdered fitness instructor Aurélie Châtelain who was in her car consulting her computer in Villejuif, just outside Paris. Then Ghlam ran into a spot of bother. He accidentally shot himself in the leg and was bleeding profusely. He drove his own car for some distance, before ringing the emergency services! Police arrived on the scene and arrested him.
Hamel was an active participant in the regional Christian-Muslim dialogue efforts. Mohammed Karabila, president of the regional Muslim organisation, said he was ‘alarmed’ to hear the news of his Christian friend, someone who gave his life serving others: ‘We are all dumbfounded at the mosque. Our prayers go to his family and to the Catholic community.’
I wrote this shortly after the attack. More news has emerged, notably that one of the attackers, who wore an electronic tag, was allowed to roam freely on weekday mornings. The tag was switched off as usual before he left his parents’ home the day of the attack. The Telegraph has a live column, and other news outlets around the world have rightly given this story the attention it deserves.

These issues with the media and state security forces affect more countries than Germany and France. Belgium’s security police and intelligence departments also have their problems.
The media, however, would do well by telling people the truth.

As far as I know, Hamel was not a Christian ?
He was conducting the Blasphemous catholic mass at the time.
I dont understand how he could have been involved in the regional Muslim Christian dialogue ?

Heresy is one thing, error another.

To surmise that this man who gave his life for the faith is not with his Lord because he was a Catholic is rather cruel, to put it mildly. This man is a martyr. He died for his beliefs and for Christ Jesus. He spent his whole life from the age of 28, if not before, in His service.

I remember we had a conversation here not so long ago when you said you would consider changing the theological slant of your site. Didn’t we say the goal was to make converts? If we want to make converts, we need to do it properly by not stigmatising others. This priest’s death has caused global outrage, even among Protestants.

The reason is quite simple.
If I join or affiliate with a denomination, then I am labelling myself, and the label would not be completely true.
And any catholic who knew what denomination I am part of, would bring out their ‘Big List ‘ of twisted drivel dumbing it down, and so I deny them that opportunity.
I belong to the body of Christ, bible believing,KJV only,Protestant in the Biblical sense,Scripture only,Jesus Christ only,
And they utterly hate that, and do not know how to deal with it.
I do not need to lie about affiliations, because I have none at all.
I hope that this explains it a little bit.

Church buildings. Sorry, I had an exchange with another reader a week or so ago on why plain boxes or nondescript structures are preferable. I haven’t read your references and will do so when time permits.
Christians are always going to have ‘big list’ objections, whether it be denominations, church buildings or whatever else — the list is endless. That surely doesn’t prevent me from joining a denomination or worshipping in a particular type of structure. Everyone will disagree on something, and Christians are no exception. In other words, so what?
Belonging to a denomination with an established set of Confessions or Articles of Religion helps many Protestants stay true to biblical truth. Public worship also helps a lot. How else can one receive the Sacrament?

Hmm. Had it been otherwise, I would have recommended using Reformed or Lutheran confessions of faith: thorough, biblical and theological.
I would do what we talked about before on this site in a different thread: write about Scripture, quote the Reformers and other great preachers (e.g. Spurgeon), write about theological or biblical influences on your life and why they made a difference to your faith.
A few years ago, there was an online trend among clergy and seminarians to use the word ‘winsome’. I haven’t read it so often lately, but ‘winsome’ definitely applies to discipleship and in being an ambassador for Christ.
Winsome — having a winning, pleasing manner.
Robert, it is unlikely you can convert many Catholics by telling them they are worshipping Satan, as your YouTube channel appears to imply:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCH7k83zkljtbtzhvGM39GaQ
By calling their church the Whore of Babylon, as your Twitter feed says, they are hardly going to say, ‘Hey, this chap has a point’:

Why belabour the darkness you’ve been focussing on forever? As I’ve said before, it’s all man-oriented and of the most nauseating nature. It may be true, however, it looks exclusively at sin.
There is nothing about Christ in it.

I would be left feeling that I was not doing the right thing, by exposing that particularly disgusting cult, especially, as they are always making feeble attempts, or applying propaganda, to tout themselves, as being Christian.

On topic — the complex situation in France:
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jul/30/france-suffers-deep-wounds-and-finds-no-answers
1/ The governor of Fresnes prison, among others, has no say in what criminals go there, nor can she provide follow-up once they are released:
‘ … youngsters entered as petty delinquents and emerged as dedicated terrorists. But nothing could be done about this because of “structural difficulties” in the French administration.’
Nor are security services communicating properly with each other yet to prevent another attack.
2/ Increasingly, the French think that extreme times call for extreme answers. The FN will be big recipients and, in Corsica, an underground nationalist group is armed and ready to fight.
3/ Since France has been under a state of emergency since Friday, November 13, 2015:
‘The use of the word “war” has now become commonplace in France, as has the sight of heavily armed troops on beaches, in city centres, in airports and at railway stations; everywhere now is the front line. The sight of these troops is never reassuring; usually quite the opposite.’
4/ With regard to interfaith relations:
‘The president of the French Council for the Muslim Faith, Anouar Kbibech, has called on all Muslims to attend mass on Sunday to “show the solidarity and compassion of the Muslims of France”. The Catholic church at first expressed official surprise but then welcomed the move as a noble and necessary act. There have been dark mutterings about “security” but the church has said that Muslims will be welcomed.’
Surely, he might have co-ordinated this with the Catholic hierarchy first?
On Sunday, July 31, the BBC reported that many Muslims all over France and Italy went to Mass in solidarity. Douglas Murray of The Spectator investigated this a bit more and found that those Muslims were the persecuted Ahmadiyya. Excerpts from his article:
‘This is the persecuted sect which many Muslims regard as non-Muslims and who are subjected to severe persecution around the world from other Muslims. Even here in the UK. Despite being a tiny minority sect within Islam they are also – as I have pointed out here before – the group which is almost always behind any positive outreach from the Muslim communities in Europe.
‘Accounts of the Muslims attending mass in Rouen show that they unfurled an Ahmadiyya banner (the banner had the group’s outreach motto, ‘Love for all. Hate for none’ on it). Some accounts of the several dozen Muslims who attended mass in Rouen recorded that ‘Many of the Muslims’ attending mass there were Ahmadiyya.
‘If the BBC headlines had been true then the banlieues would have emptied as young Muslims attended Mass in solidarity. Instead a few dozen Ahmadiyya attended Mass and gave the Western media the good news story they are always on the lookout for …’

This is a conversation that took place in the church at Mass that fateful morning (emphasis mine):
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jul/30/france-church-attackers-smiled-and-talked-of-peace-nun-says
‘“I got a smile from the second [man]. Not a smile of triumph, but a soft smile, that of someone who is happy,” nun Sister Huguette Peron told Catholic newspaper La Vie on Friday …
‘One nun fled the scene and alerted the police, leaving Sister Huguette and Sister Helene Decaux, both in their 80s, in the church with the jihadists …
‘“Are you afraid to die?” one of the attackers asked.
‘The nun said no, then he said: “Why?”
‘“I believe in God, and I know I will be happy” Sister Helene said, as she quietly prayed to herself.
‘Then they started talking about God.
‘“Jesus cannot be God and a man. It is you who are wrong,” one of the men said.
‘“Maybe, but too bad,” Sister Huguette replied.
‘At that moment, she prepared for her own death, not knowing what was coming next.
‘“Thinking I was going to die, I offered my life to God” she added.’
