A 13-year-old student has confessed to spreading a false story about French history teacher Samuel Paty — which set off a horrific chain of events that led to him being beheaded last year, reports said Tuesday.
The girl, whose name has not been released, admitted that she had “lied” about a classroom incident at the school west of Paris in order to please her father, the Independent reported.

In the bookstore was a very expensive, beautifully bound in green leather Holy Quran. If one was going to give a gift to someone, like a president, or any other high "ranking" person in society, it is what you would buy.
Every page was in Arabic on the left side, and English on the right. The English side was just like the other modern ones, all the "bad" stuff left out.
I have a non Muslim friend who is fluent in spoken and written Arabic.
I asked him to come to the bookstore with me, because I was too cheap to buy the book.
I pointed out the sura I mentioned, and a few others, plus there were some he was familiar with he wanted to check.
(he had spent quite a few years in Saudi-Arabia as a civilian). I have never seen the expression that came on his face before. Absolute shock. He had only seen true versions before too.
He said, "My God, they are two different books". I remember those exact words.
I don't remember the rest of his comments word for word, but he went on to say, that this explains why so many people in our government have the wrong idea about Islam.
He used to sit on the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and had a good idea of what was thought about Islam in our government.
If you have Muslim friends, here's an interesting thing to do.
Be alone with one, in a friendly, relaxed situation. Disarm him or her with friendly banter.
Then this or similar:... "[their name], I know you are a Muslim, and I would never think of trying to convert you to anything else.
But do you, as a Muslim, believe that other people should be free to believe in their religions too, whatever they may be, Catholic, Jew, Hindu, Presbyterian, Baptist, and so forth?
Watch their eyes. Listen to their response.
I attended the Mohammed cartoon contest. The next day, after I FINALLY got my car back, I was interviewed by CBS. The interviewer tried to get me to say I was scared and have regrets for causing a terrorist event, but I didn’t fall for it. I explained the 1st amendment free speech and also pointed out how ridiculous it is to put up with people that will kill over a cartoon.
Back in the pre Trump era when the GOP electorate were not fully enlightened about their own leaders, this dumbass managed to slip through carrying his daddy’s name. If the primaries were held today he would be standing even further out on stage than Kasich.
“Muslims are taught to lie.”
I went into college with no prejudices whatsoever. I dealt with many, many Muslims. I left with the impression that we should never let any of them in the country.
A wealthy Muslim from Lebanon sounded like the staunchest conservative you’d ever meet when we spoke alone. But when he was with the other Muslims, he was a “me-too” chorus girl. Annoyed, as he knew better than to accept the lies the other Muslims sported, I asked him about it. He said, approximately, you are an American. They know better than to make something happen to you. But these guys can have me killed when I get home just by making a phone call. They are spouting doctrine. To disagree, or even try to discuss it, is the same as saying you are not a Muslim. That means death.
I would ask an honest Muslim three questions:
1. What should happen to anyone who defiles the Koran?
2. What should happen to anyone who draws a picture of Mohammed?
3. What should happen to anyone who leaves the Muslim faith?
I’ll bet you a dollar all three answers would be the same. And that answer wouldn’t be pretty.
Side note: Many studies have shown that young Muslims are - in general - more radical than their parents. So it ain’t gonna get any better.
I just watched a special about 911 and one of the men who were in the building at the time said the terrorists slanted the plane like that to do the most damage to the building.
“Cultural enrichment” via Islam? Why would anyone be surprised?
burn the witch and her father
Sounds like today’s thought control leftists.
Celebrate diversity.
There is only one goal acceptable in Islam regarding other religions. Everyone will eventually have to “submit to Allah”, or they will have to die. The third option, to be tolerated as “dhimmis” as long as they pay the tax and follow the Muslims’ laws, is only a temporary option until there are no other infidels left but the dhimmis.
So no matter what they may say, their religion simply doesn’t allow for any “peaceful coexistence” with other relgions, not in the long term at least.
“Those George W. Bush quotes are important. Because they set the tone.”
Yep, worst thing he did as Pres.
It’s obvious that the female is a muzz. If this were in the USA it would get off scot free and with ample apologies.
This is EXACTLY equivalent to siccing one’s vicious dog on someone, and the dog kills him. No different. In both cases there is a vicious animal that has no moral sense, just blind instinct. But of course the court won’t see it that way .
In HER world, she scored a lot of points for that episode.
Getting any sleep these days kiddo? That will probably haunt you for the rest of your life.
I doubt that. They probably were struggling to hit the building and almost missed. It’s not exactly easy for an amateur to sit in a big jet for the first time and put it on “X marks the spot”. More likely he was “behind the jet” so to speak and pulled in a big correction.
You have to be wayyyy out in front of a machine moving that fast. That one, flight 175, was booking at almost 590 mph. That exceeds the emergency dive speed for that plane. It was in danger of breaking up even.
He was just barely in control. Without that severe bank, he would have missed the buildings and would have had to circle back.
Makes sense.
That’s my wild guess. But who knows. It sure did cause a lot of damage between the angle and the speed. That second building and first.
