French Politicians Subsidize Islamist Groups

Europe is still unclear about the existential threat it faces from Islamists, as this story reveals:

After Nord-Eclair, France-Echos and Caroline Fourest, the weekly newspaper Marianne reveals one of the biggest scandals of modern France: in Roubaix and in the French department of Nord [near the Belgian Border], environmentalist and socialist elected representatives subsidized conferences and radio programmes for Islamists such as Hassan Iquioussen and Tariq Ramadan.

The Marianne delivery of March 11, 2006 contains a four-page article on that affair, exposed by Messaoud Bouras for years but strangely overshadowed by the media.

You heard it right: today, in France, French elected representatives have, in their pitiful run for votes, made subsidies available for declared enemies of the French Republic through associations, radio stations or ?school support? groups.

The beneficiaries of those generous gifts are people as despicable as Hassan Iquioussen, the anti-Jew preacher from UIOF [Union des organisations islamiques de France - Union of Muslim Associations in France], Tariq Ramadan, the takia-expert who wants to impose Sharia to French Muslims, the notorious ?Indig?nes de la R?publique? association [?Natives of the Republic?, ?Natives? meaning here former colonized people, i.e. mainly of African or Arab descent] and their call for racist Jihad against people of French descent, or ?school support? groups that form real Koranic Madrassas.
