POWDER KEG 6 miles from Eiffel Tower: 300,000 illegal migrants are living in parallel Islamic state in France

“This is a parallel state — a state within a state, with its own rules and religious courts — where allegiance to Islam comes ahead of fealty to France.”

“It’s clear to me that the area is already lost to France — to the rule of French law, equality, religious freedom, and even access to the streets by the police themselves.”

Jews are spat upon.

Hundreds of known jihadists are living in Saint-Denis, while 1,700 are believed to have returned to France after fighting for IS in Syria, with 15,000 terrorism suspects in France.

For over a decade, my colleagues and I warned of this, for which we were smeared, mocked, and libeled — to this very day. Everything, as we predicted, has come to pass. Despite this, we are still marginalized and demonized. Slaughter in the cause of Islam is swept under the rug as “mental illness.” Jihad terror is now an opportunity for dawah, to spread Islam, the religion of peace. Two dead children in Toronto, Nice, Manchester, Berlin, etc. affect no reflection or change in narrative. It is some crippling societal sickness.

And it’s only going to get worse.

For Paris, it is just a matter of time.

Migrants protest over the destruction of Paris homeless camp

Powder Keg Paris: As a devastating report reveals 300,000 illegal migrants are living in one French suburb… ANDREW MALONE explores the tensions in a community at odds with mainstream society

• Andrew Malone ventured into the Paris suburb of Saint-Denis for a week
• The neighbourhood is home to as many as 300,000 illegal immigrants
• Many rely on crime or the ‘black economy’ to get by and live in poverty 
• He found rule of French law, equality, religious freedom, was lost in the suburb
• There are more mosques there than anywhere else and 350 known jihadis  

By ANDREW MALONE IN PARIS FOR THE DAILY MAIL, 28 July 2018

Andrew Malone ventured into the Paris suburb of Saint-Denis for a week, a neighbourhood is home to as many as 300,000 illegal immigrants

At the World Express cafe, groups of men argue in Arabic. On side streets, men smoke shisha pipes and talk — again, in Arabic — on every corner. Women shop in veils and scarves, always accompanied by a male relative.

As a white European, I attract odd looks. When I take out my mobile phone for a photograph, a young man jumps in front of me, waving his index finger in my face, shouting: ‘La! La! La!’ (No! No! No!)

Yet this is not an exotic, far-flung destination. This is France. Moreover, this is Paris and only six miles from the Eiffel Tower.

The reason for all this activity — in an area which even the most optimistic estate agent would struggle to sell as ‘cosmopolitan and bohemian’ — is quite simple: immigration on a mammoth scale.

The area in question is called Saint-Denis in the north-east of the city, where the Basilica holds the resting places of many French kings and queens.

Recently, it was reported that this sprawling district now holds as many as 300,000 illegal immigrants, many of whom rely on crime or the ‘black economy’ to make money. The official legal population in Saint-Denis is estimated at 1.5 million.

Not only that, according to French parliamentarians in a new report that’s causing much anguish across the nation, as many as 420,000 legal residents here are living ‘below the official poverty line’.

The scale of the problem grows each day. An estimated 80 migrants arrive in Paris every 24 hours — 550 a week.

Many head for Saint-Denis because of its closeness to transport links, including the railway lines heading towards the North coast, and Britain.

Migrant camps, set up in tents along the Seine in this area of Paris, were destroyed by the police in May, with the occupants who didn’t get away taken for processing in detention centres after a raid.

But there are still campers everywhere, as well as people sleeping on the streets.

There are an estimated 135 different nationalities in Saint-Denis, most extremely poor, including an estimated 600,000 Muslims from North African or sub-Saharan African backgrounds.

‘The challenge,’ says Paris senator Philippe Dallier, is ‘to prevent Saint-Denis becoming a huge ethnic ghetto of two million inhabitants within 20 years.’

Bon chance, monsieur — as they don’t say in this teeming quarter, where speaking Arabic is more useful than French.

Having spent several days in Saint-Denis, it’s clear to me that the area is already lost to France — to the rule of French law, equality, religious freedom, and even access to the streets by the police themselves.

Indeed, this is a parallel state — a state within a state, with its own rules and religious courts — where allegiance to Islam comes ahead of fealty to France.

Police have reportedly admitted the area is a ‘no-go’ zone, and will only drive through the areas armed and four to a vehicle

Here, I saw a woman walking in full face veil — illegal under a French law introduced to promote integration. No one batted an eye.

People bought and sold drugs openly. What law there is takes place inside Sharia courts, where Islamic leaders dispense the same forms of justice practised in the countries from which many here fled.

And where, as I discovered, other faiths and religions are being driven from the area.

When helicopters flew overhead in training for the Bastille Day celebrations earlier this month, one man pretended to shoot at them with a machine gun.

Another pushed him away and pretended to fire a shoulder-mounted missile, tracing the missile with his hand towards its targets and shouting: ‘Boom!’ Everyone laughed.

Further down the street, there was a flurry of activity. A woman was surrounded as she opened a huge bag full of phones, shoes, sunglasses and handbags — clearly stolen from tourists or Parisians. The goods were quickly sold and the crowd melted away.

Police have reportedly admitted the area is a ‘no-go’ zone, and will only drive through the areas armed and four to a vehicle.

Meanwhile, politicians on the Left try to deny the problems: Anne Hidalgo, Socialist Mayor of Paris, announced she was going to sue Fox News, the Trump-supporting Right-wing U.S. TV channel, for claiming that there were ‘no-go areas’ open only to Muslims.

The suit was never filed, but it is surely impossible to deny that the number of impoverished migrants in France is causing a dangerous social dislocation.

The appalling attacks in November 2015 by home-grown Islamic State killers shone a pitiless spotlight on the problems that can grow out of immigrant ghettos.

The carnage started close to the Stade de France, the national sports stadium, which is in Saint-Denis, where some of the killers sought refuge after the attacks.

One hundred and thirty people died in a single night of violence involving suicide bombings and Kalashnikov fire around bars, cafés and venues, including the Bataclan concert hall.

Five days after the attacks, the suspected mastermind was run to ground in an apartment by hundreds of security officers.

‘The police had no idea who anyone was, and were pretty much shooting on sight because everyone was a suspect,’ a local who witnessed the raid told me.

‘The terrorists had rented rooms with no questions asked, and were left to get on with their crimes.’

At the time, Manuel Valls, the prime minister, spoke of a ‘geographical, social and ethnic apartheid’ and that ‘these last few days have underlined a lot of evil that is gnawing at our country’.

The 2016 Bastille Day attack in Nice left 87 dead — including the terrorist — and 458 injured, when a truck ploughed into revellers on the Promenade des Anglais.

Since then, as I discovered, in many ways the situation has worsened, although thankfully there has not been another major terrorist attack.

There are around 350 known jihadists living in Saint-Denis, while 1,700 are believed to have returned to France after fighting for IS in Syria, with 15,000 terrorism suspects in France.

In Saint-Denis itself, there is a record number of mosques — 160 official ones, and many more unofficial — compared with 117 Catholic churches and 60 Protestant. Yet it is the unauthorised mosques — set up in basements and garages — that the authorities fear the most.

‘The radicalisers use these hidden places of worship to influence the young and impressionable,’ said a veteran police officer who has worked in Saint-Denis for more than two decades.

He added: ‘Salafists (followers of an extreme form of Islam) impose the rule of religion, so we can have very little influence. These radicalisers are the ones who motivate the young towards terrorism.’

Much of the money-raising activity comes from drug-dealing by gangs, many of them Muslim. At one high-rise block of flats not far from where I was staying, the scale of the operation was evident.

Like a department store, different drugs are sold on different floors. Moroccans and North Africans sell hashish for ten euros a bag on the third floor.

On the next floor up, two West African youths — one with his hair dyed pink, the other blonde — were dispensing skunk marijuana for 20 euros a bag.

Further up were older black Africans selling rocks of cocaine at 20 euros for a small plastic wrap. Above, heroin was being sold, and there was also, apparently, a room set aside for injecting.

At this point, I told one of the men I was a journalist and asked whether we could have a chat.

A chunky character in a red Ellesse sports shirt, he was relaxed, smiled at me and said politely to me in English: ‘No — go.’ I went.

Most blocks seemed to have the same operation, with youths guarding the front doors, ‘spotters’ on the streets opposite for signs of police or other gangs, and the drugs held and sold inside.

Rabbi Yisroel Belinow, 50, is either a fool or very brave. As I walked near a mosque, I saw him looking out of his window. His home was firebombed in 2009, and a kosher restaurant next door burned down.

He’s since watched other Jews flee the area, and his dying father begged him to leave before it was too late. He came down to speak to me, but declined my invitation to stroll around the streets.

‘My parents came here from Russia and Poland,’ he told me. ‘When I was a kid, there were the usual jokes between children; we made fun of each other, but there was always a limit. I could go anywhere I wanted whenever I wanted.’

‘The problem is people coming to France and wanting to change it. And it’s worse because they want to force people to change. I know I look different. The hatred is obvious — people spit when you walk past.

‘I respect this country because I was born here. I respect the laws of this country. I respect Christmas even though it has nothing to do with being a Jew.

‘Now they won’t let Christmas happen. France has existed for thousands of years. If I didn’t like those laws, I would move to another country.

‘It wasn’t always like this. In the beginning, [French people] wanted to help. The charity these people [recent migrants] were shown was tremendous. But you wake up and realise pretty soon that this works one way only. Many people have left.’

Mireille Knoll, an 85-year-old Jewish grandmother and Holocaust survivor, vowed never to leave Paris, but she was stabbed to death in her apartment in March.

Two men in their 20s have been charged with her murder, one of whom Mrs Knoll’s family say was a Muslim neighbour they had known since he was a boy.

The dead woman’s son said: ‘At first we weren’t sure [the killing] was due to anti-Semitism. We waited for police to say it, and now we know the truth.’

While only a few hundred attend weekly mass at the Basilica here, thousands of Muslims stream into the area’s mosques for Friday prayers — so much so that, in a rare intervention, the authorities banned them from praying in the streets as well.

Women suffer the most. Not far from the drug dealers outside the station, I visited a women’s refuge set up by Ghada Hatem, a senior gynaecologist, who says almost one in five of her patients have been victims of female genital mutilation (FGM) — the barbaric ritual of cutting the sexual organs of young women.

Now a specialist in the repair of such intimate mutilation, Hatem, who hails from Lebanon, says she is in daily contact with ‘women who tell me about the horrors they experience at home’.

Sarah Oussekine, who has an Algerian background and who runs a group called the Voix d’Elles Rebelles (Voice of the Female Rebels) in Saint-Denis, says: ‘When you ask girls why they are starting to wear the headscarf — and many more are — they tell you it is an act of faith, but actually when you dig deeper, they have to wear it to stay safe.’

All this, of course, has led to a toxic, incendiary atmosphere in this Parisian suburb — with Muslim groups countering that they suffer harassment, police violence and religious and racial discrimination.

Riots erupted in February last year after a young black man was allegedly sexually assaulted with a baton by police officers.

The numbers have been consistently under-estimated. Arabic speaking investigators have found 8-10 young Muslims and African illegals sleeping in ONE room. One can argue though whether it is a ‘powder keg’ or a ‘time bomb’. Meanwhile Pope Francis chastises the French and the rest of Europe to give away their country and their children’s country to savages

The French brought this horror and death wish upon themselves and the alliance, the so-called EU. The Allies yanked their you know out of the fire in the Second World War, not to overlook the First World War. France and her EU comrades are on their own this time. The EU has already capitulated to Islam; therefore no more Allies will die in vain for the Europeans. Francis is a disciple of Satan, Islam; he has spat in the face of Christ and all Christians.

Sad to say, you are right, Overit. It is too late at this moment, it will only worsen as the Muslim tentacles tighten their grip. Political correctness is a debilitating social-disorder; Liberalism parasite-like thrives on it; knowing, it is the roadway to the eradication of freedom of speech and liberty. We, non-Liberals, are perceived as the enemy of the state, not Islam; ironically, these minions of Islam will be the first to fall victim to this Apocalyptic Cult. The godless leftists will have to praise Allah, one wonders how this affects their godlessness tenets.

“The godless leftists will have to praise Allah, one wonders how this affects their godlessness tenets.”

OF COURSE they won’t believe in Allah. Just as Christians won’t, Buddhists won’t, etc etc.

Let’s not forget that out of ALL the major and minor religions in the world, even the most fervent religious practitioners disbelieve all but one of them. Atheists only disbelieve one more than they do.

This of course also applies to godless rightists just as much as godless leftists.

Indeed, in there tenets, they are deities; the arrogance, self-aggrandizing and narcissism of the leftists is limitless. Believing they are the apex of humankind/mankind. My point was, however, progressives will feign faith in Islam or anything else to keep their heads intact, literally.

People of any bent have the right to be atheist; the left is nearer the tenets of Islam, hatred of diversity or of thought, excepting Islam and rabid antisemites and much more.

NATO will possibly be destroyed or allies with Islam, meaning the EU nations of NATO. I cannot trust the so-called allies to take on this scourge. Agreed, Europe will be more awash with jihads then ever. Will the French and Germans have the guts to take them on? I doubt it; Liberalism is a death sentence for the West, in tandem with Islam.

An Uncle who, along with tens of thousands landed on D-Day, he survived, physically. Stating to me once, if you found yourself in a foxhole with a Frenchmen and were attacked by Germans, first shoot the Frenchmen. Cynicism, I wasn’t there, obviously, truthful, indeed. Not that there were not brave Frenchmen or women; however, identifying someone’s loyalty under fire is a damning and life-saving decision. It will be the same in the future as said war. Good post, thought-provoking, Glen.

This is an excellent report, and one which should make uncomfortable reading for those who praise multi culti mixed tribe futures but refuse to live among the carnage or run the risks of doing so.

As in every western city in every country I can think of, the seeds of this grand scheme were planted by socialists {in order to provide “problems” to be “solved”} and it’s they who “water” the growing sore with other peoples money – and sometimes their blood too through preventable terrorist atrocities.

The answer here as elsewhere lies with the voting public and they must understand that to solve these issues of lawlessness and parallel hostile societies, changes to whatever laws which prevent solutions comparable to the scale of the problems need to be brought forward by people resolved to prevail for the good of and in the NATIONAL interest.

What has prevented effective action before now is the western liberal / socialist agenda of “tolerance” “diversity” {is good} and “equality”. Well those are the turnkey points – not to happiness with increased wealth but the wholesale destruction of integrated homogeneous societies when linked to massive flows of dissimilar dirt poor migrants. To this unpleasent mess you then add Islam and muslims.

One thing will always be true in this brave new world of contemporary values, the longer the problems are allowed to exist, the tougher and longer the solutions will prove to be.

It would be nice to think those responsible for this situation like Anne Hidalgo would bare the cost, but that’s unlikely. She must.

The French are stupid like the rest of Europe. They sowed the seeds of their own destruction. No wonder Jews are leaving France and about time since the police and government are weak.
War is definitely coming and the US had better not help them out. Unfortunately as part of NATO we will be obliged. Still I woukd NEVER let my children NATO or not go fight. Europe created the mess, clean it up. The only way America may get involved is when and I do mean when the Muslims start really desecrating WW2 American grave sites in France. Them at that point let the butt kick8ng begin and I mean with no BS adherence to the Geneva convention.

There is confusion between Saint-Denis (the town) and its “département” (there are 100 “départements” in France), that is the Seine Saint-Denis. The numbers are for the whole”département”. Juste to be precise because it does not change the mixture.

A lady known as Paris, Romantic and Charming
Has left her old companions and faded from view

Lonely men with lonely eyes are seeking her in vain
Her streets are where they were, but there’s no sign of her

She has left the Seine

The last time I saw Paris, her heart was warm and gay,
I heard the laughter of her heart in every street cafe

The last time I saw Paris, her trees were dressed for spring,
And lovers walked beneath those trees and birds found songs to sing.

I dodged the same old taxicabs that I had dodged for years.
The chorus of their squeaky horns was music to my ears.

The last time I saw Paris, her heart was warm and gay,
No matter how they change her, I’ll remember her that way.

I’ll think of happy hours, and people who shared them
Old women, selling flowers, in markets at dawn

Children who applauded, Punch and Judy in the park
And those who danced at night and kept our Paris bright

‘Til the town went dark.

This was written about Paris under occupation by another totalitarian regime

Soon people will stop coming to Paris, tourists do not come to see squalor

St-Denis is home to what was arguably the most important monastery in Western Europe. Its abbotts picked the earliest dynasties in the history of the French kingdom, whose kings, with St-Denis’ blessing, went on to win the wars that established the core of what is now France – for many centuries the premier realm of Latin Christendom.

The article mentioned the many royal tombs in St-Denis. Now you know why they are there.

Incidently, those wars included the ones that pushed the hated Saracens south of the Pyrenees. France was also a major player in supporting the Christians of Spain and Portugal in their reconquista against the cruel Arab and African Muslim invaders who ruled Iberia for centuries.

The Apollo 13 space capsule is in Le Bourget, a neighboring suburb a few minutes east of St-Denis. This was a gift from the American people and NASA to the French and their national space museum, which is the second space museum in the world after the Smithsonian NASA museum in Washington.

All this history, tradition, glory, and the dream of the future, now surrendered to a bunch of savages from the armpit of the world.
