The attack on August 9, 1982, which left six people dead and 22 injured, was blamed on the Abu Nidal Organisation, a splinter group of the militant Palestinian...

    ATTACK - The Pantin mosque will have to close its doors on Wednesday evening and for a period of six months. The cause, in particular, a video relayed on the Facebook page of the place of worship likely to have facilitated the savage murder of Samuel Paty on October 16 in Conflans-Sainte-Honorine as well as the controversial personality of the imam. The faithful met this Tuesday morning near the mosque consider the decision unfair and disproportionate.

    On Friday Samuel Paty, a French high school teacher, was beheaded by a Chechen "refugee" on the streets of Conflans-Sainte-Honorine, north-west of Paris. His crime was showing a Charlie Hebdo Mohammed cartoon to his pupils in a class on free speech. So he had to be "canceled" - Xtreme Sports edition. M Paty leaves a wife and a five-year-old son, and the usual useless passive expressions of public grief, including inevitably #JeSuisSamuel and candlelight vigils and all the other mawkish crap that signals to the world that you're not serious about doing anything to prevent the next grieving widow and...

    A suspect shot dead by police after the gruesome beheading of a history teacher in an attack near Paris was an 18-year-old Moscow-born Chechen refugee, officials said Saturday. France's anti-terrorism prosecutor's office said authorities investigating the killing of Samuel Paty in Conflans-Sainte-Honorine on Friday also arrested nine suspects, including the teen's grandfather, parents and 17-year-old brother. Paty had discussed caricatures of Islam's Prophet Muhammad with his class, leading to threats and a complaint from a parent, police officials said. Islam prohibits images of the prophet, asserting that they lead to idolatry. The officials could not be named because they were...

    Turkey has “activated” a Russian-made S-400 anti-aircraft defense system to track F-16 fighter jets flown by several other NATO members, U.S. lawmakers and analysts suspect. “The whole problem with having the S-400 integrated is in order to do that, you have to betray some of the codes and some of the, basically, NATO technology to the Russians,” the American Enterprise Institute’s Michael Rubin said. “And it appears that that's what they've done.” Western officials have eyed Turkey’s turn to Russian arms dealers with alarm in recent years, but Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan defied the threat of U.S. sanctions to...

    French police searched the homes of the health minister, the former prime minister and other top officials Thursday in an investigation into the government’s response to the global coronavirus pandemic. The dawn searches, confirmed by the Health Ministry, come as France is fighting against a resurgent epidemic that has now filled a third of the country’s intensive care units with COVID-19 patients and is again putting Europe to the test. The investigation threatens to rekindle public frustration with a government that’s been accused of lying to the public about mask stocks, underestimating testing needs and overestimating France’s ability to vanquish...
