In 2018, there were 1,063 anti-Christian acts of vandalism, defecation, and torchings of churches and Christian symbols in France (mostly by Muslims, though you’ll never hear that from the media). There were also 541 anti-Jewish acts in 2018, yet ONLY 100 anti-Muslim acts. Think about it.
Raymond Ibrahim Among some of the recent desecrations in France, the following took place in just February and March:
- Vandals plundered Notre-Dame des Enfants Church in Nîmes and used human excrement to draw a cross there; consecrated bread was found thrown outside among garbage.
- The Saint-Nicolas Church in Houilles was vandalized on three separate occasions in February; a 19th century statue of the Virgin Mary, regarded as “irreparable,” was “completely pulverized,” said a clergyman; and a hanging cross was thrown to the floor.
- Vandals desecrated and smashed crosses and statues at Saint-Alain Cathedral in Lavaur, and mangled the arms of a statue of a crucified Christ in a mocking manner. In addition, an altar cloth was burned.
- Arsonists torched the Church of St. Sulpice in Paris (St. Denis) soon after midday mass on Sunday, March 17.
Who is primarily behind these ongoing and increasing attacks on churches in Europe? The same German report offers a hint: “Crosses are broken, altars smashed, Bibles set on fire, baptismal fonts overturned, and the church doors smeared with Islamic expressions like ‘Allahu Akbar.’” The perpetrators are often youthful rioters with a migration background.” Elsewhere they are described as “young Islamists.”
In France it also seems that where the number of Muslim migrants increases, so do attacks on churches. A January 2017 study revealed that, “Islamist extremist attacks on Christians” in France rose by 38 percent, going from 273 attacks in 2015 to 376 in 2016; the majority occurred during Christmas season and “many of the attacks took place in churches and other places of worship.”
As a typical example, a Muslim man committed “major acts of vandalism” inside a historic Catholic church in Thonon-les-Bains. According to a report (with pictures), he “overturned and broke two altars, the candelabras and lecterns, destroyed statues, tore down a tabernacle, twisted a massive bronze cross, smashed in a sacristy door and even broke some stained-glass windows.” He also “trampled on” the Eucharist.
In virtually every instance of church attacks, authorities and media obfuscate the identity of the vandals. In those rare instances when the Muslim (or «migrant») identity of the destroyers is leaked, the perpetrators are then presented as suffering from mental health issues. As the recent PI-News report says:
«Hardly anyone writes and speaks about the increasing attacks on Christian symbols. There is an eloquent silence in both France and Germany about the scandal of the desecrations and the origin of the perpetrators…. Not a word, not even the slightest hint that could in anyway lead to the suspicion of migrants… It is not the perpetrators who are in danger of being ostracized, but those who dare to associate the desecration of Christian symbols with immigrant imports. They are accused of hatred, hate speech and racism.»
The most monumental churches around the globe and particularly in Europe are predominantly Catholic.
Protestant churches were and are kept much simpler and less impressive. Therefore less damage to be done and less sculptures to be beheaded.

Here’s some of the joy this has spread in the Muslim world:

On the memri site they are saying the fire is in answer to the mosque attack in NZ. I hope that comment has reached the ears of the gormless Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern. I take comfort that a plank of her election manifesto to introduce a capital gains tax was scuttled this week.
macron must be peeing his pants daily and really threatening the press with heavens knows what to keep this persecution under wraps, but you can’t hide fires.
The name of the video brand is significant. Samizdat was the means by which the Russian people under communism circulated banned information. Books and pamphlets would be painfully transcribed by hand for circulation, but none of the transcribers knew each other. If one transcriber was caught the others would be safe. Samizdat is so apt for the times we are living in.
Maybe French people should start attending mass even if they don’t believe in it as a sign that this significant part of their past matters. Such as show would put muslims noses out joint.
GP, but all we hear from French officials is that it was an accident/electricalfire/anything but arson.
The Muslims are on welfare. They have time to do all they do. Other people must work. Know how one of the “reasons” for the need of so many “refugees” is that whites don’t make enough babies? Well, in this video, a woman says that people aren’t having babies because the government makes it so they can’t afford to have babies.

I often wonder if the videos I put forth make it easier for the Muslims to know which to flag & have taken down. Islam is the cult of satan; & there’s no excuse for those who purposely LIe to promote their psychopathic cult.
Instead of lead them to a specific site, I’ll just recommend anyone who sees this searching “allah is satan.” It’s sla ves worship satan for the gift he gives them to rape infants & animals, torture women & infidels, & basically spread every Evil possible above hell.
Macron doesn’t care. He used to work at a Rothschild bank. If he’s voted out, there will always be work for such as he.
French, & all infidel Europeans, should attend mass to show their religion is not dead. It’s because they’ve allowed the Left to undermine Christianity that Islam has the room to do what they do. Once upon a time Christians would have waged war to stop this. In all fairness, this could be said about US, too. Jews are another story: In the West, they’re mostly Leftists who ally with the most Evil entities that exist. Places like J Street, Ifnotnow, JVP, Breaking the Silence, & all the other A rab/Soros funded progressive Jewish organizations.
Terrorism includes attacks against churches.
Why are the civilized people of France putting up with this? Oh, right, I forgot, they lost their balls.
Did you lose yours on the roof of the American Embassy of Saïgon on April 30th, 1975 ?
Anything in the UK? MSM remains silent.
What about Evangelical Protestant churches? Are they being attacked too?
RS, I imagine this includes churches of all denominations. Muslims don’t discriminate in their hatred.
There aren’t as many Protestant churches. They aren’t as old & majestic.
Protestantism was brought to France around 1550 only.
