Telegraph:
18.40 French terror expert Amel Boubekeur interviewed the radical creator of the Bettes-Charmont terror cell, Farid Benyettou, at a demonstration, reports Nicola Harley.
She said he was “charismatic” and the group, who she refused to name individually, saw themselves as “freedom fighters”.
Quote They were young people,” she said.
“They felt stigmatised in France for being Muslim and they didn’t know what to do. After that I found some of them went to Iraq.
“Farid was a well dressed, remarkable guy who spoke logically. I can see why they listen to him.
“They were young people who had been rejected by official channels, like schools. They said they felt humiliated by the West. They never spoke of wanting to commit acts of terror but of being freedom fighters and resistant fighters.
“The Kouachi brothers and Amedy Coulibaly are a new generation of radicals. It is easier to get radicalised now on the internet.
“There will be more incidents.”
Islam apologists... er MSNBC & CNN playing blame game.
It’s not your father’s jihad anymore.
This is a media savvy generation of terrorists.
