1 in 6 French People View ISIS Favourably

Islamic State jihadists

An ICM poll on behalf of the Russian state news agency Rossiya Segodnya tested the public attitude towards the group ISIS (formerly known as the Islamic State of Iraq and Levant or ISIL, and now calling itself Islamic State or IS) in 3 European countries: Great Britain, France and Germany.

The news agency commissioning the poll may be Putin-friendly, but the polling firm ICM is as reputable as any.

The survey asked people whether they had a favourable or unfavourable view of ISIS.

In France, 16% say they have a favourable view.

In the UK, 7% say they have a favourable view.

In Germany, 2% say they have a favourable view.

The astonishing result concerns France. Considering that the official figures for France's Muslims are from 5 to 10% of the population, these data are difficult to explain. Either - as it's possible - "French" Muslims are more numerous than we are told, or French non-Muslims are displaying an odd sympathy for the Islamic State.

Not only that. If we break down the results by age group, we find even more worrisome outcomes, as shown below.

ICM poll results on attitudes to ISIS by age group

Almost 1 in 3 people aged 18-24 in France view ISIS positively.

Also significant are the percentages of respondents who say they have an unfavourable view of ISIS: 62% in France, 64% in Britan, and 82% in Germany.

Except in Germany, they are very low percentages indeed. Considering that the Islamic State is ethnically cleansing Iraq and Syria of Christians - or rather continuing the ethnic cleansing started before it -, and the brutality with which they treat Christians, one has to ask what the barbaric jihadists of the IS should do to get a 90% of "unfavourable views" (impossible in Islamised France anyway) from these apathetic populations feeding on Kim Kardashian (whoever that is), bad TV and Emmy Awards (whatever they are).

Join the Tea Party, or become Jewish.

What would that percentage have been 10 years ago? What will it be 10 years from now? Rapid demographic shifts, by people who don’t share the same views as the rest of the country they are immigrating to, is essentially a slow invasion.

This poll could be: cooked, unscientific, Muslims are more than 10% of France, non-Muslims are sympathetic to ISIS, or “ISIS” has different contextual meaning in France.

In a just world these muzzy scum would be deported to their nearest ISIS hangout to be bombed at a later time.

This is exactly what will happen right here in America when/if we let the muzzies get away with spreading their hate and discontent. Time to evict them all.

In other words, the one in six in France who are muzzies.

World Islam is at war with us “infidels”. Let’s think globally & act locally (yeah, that’s an old leftie slogan).

One FReeper says whenever he encounters a Muslim he makes the Sign of the Cross, but pauses & holds fingertips to forehead like for salaam aleikum. When he completes the Sign, he gets murderous glares from the muzzie.

A perfect example of WHY you don’t let Moslems immigrate into any European country, and parts of the US including Minnesota/Minneapolis, Florida, Oregon, New Jersey, Chicago, and most of the US.

Here’s what I know from personal experience.

Muslims are not to be trusted. They will lie to your face and stab you in the back. I’ve had on two occasions an Arab/Muslim stiff me or my business for $10,000 plus dollars.

You can’t get a straight answer from them. If you try to press them about facts, facts that are on paper (Bank/Brokerage statements), they will attempt to explain why those facts are wrong. They believe they can talk their way around those facts and if you don’t believe them, they get offended. They use this indignation as a tool to get what they want.

They are perpetually offended.

One way to look at it is the French have a ‘proud history’ of guillotine executions. That was for their king et al. So just maybe sone of them identify with IS in that way? Am not totally serious but just maybe...
