In France There has been a bomb threat in the last few days: all non-existent threats, but which forced the authorities to intervene and close sites of strategic importance such as the Louvre Museum, the Palace of Versailles (five times) and the Eiffel Tower. Due to the principle that it is always better to exercise caution than to ignore a possible alarm, the country is under attack by bomb alerts, which have also been issued for airports. “There were 18 arrested“, essentially minors, in the last 48 hours,” said the French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin at Bfmtv.
France has a major internal problem and it was the minister himself who explained where one of the most serious critical problems lies: “There is at least 1000 radicalized minors, was reported to the police for Islamism. These children exchange photos of beheadings and consult ISIS propaganda.” And the Internet is the best propaganda platform, as is so often the case. “Is the police to blame?” asked the minister, emphasizing that among the radicalized there were also children aged 11-12-13. “We can say that perhaps it is partly the fault of the families,” Darmanin noted. And after the attack Hamas against Israel in France, Darmanin explained, “there is an additional terrorist threat.” Since his term in office, i.e. in 2017, “over 922 p radicalized they were banished.”
It is Europe that is kept in check, but in France, the minister explained, “there are none.” terrorist threat “Defined”. A situation similar to that in Italy, as the representatives of the Meloni government have explained on several occasions in recent days, while stressing the need to remain vigilant to avoid surprise attacks. On the sidelines of the EU Council In Luxembourg, the French recalled Interior Minister remembers that when he headed the European Union he proposed a concept, that of separatism, as we might call it atmospheric jihadismthat is, people who use associations, who use places of worship, who use the Internet, who use a kind of ecosystem that enables the transition to action, that enables radicalization.” And it is against this system that we must fight “without naivety.”
A naivety that, Darmanin explained, unfortunately “exists both in the institutions of some countries and in the European Union, and also in the way we demonstrate our authority over these structures by dissolving associations and the subsidies for them “put an end to associations” and more generally in the fight for what France calls secularism.”
