ISLAMIC STATE JIHADIS CHEER DESTRUCTION OF NOTRE DAME CATHEDRAL AS "RETRIBUTION & PUNISHMENT"
NOTRE DAME DESTRUCTION AFTERMATH – FIRE ENGULFS 850-YEAR-OLD CATHEDRAL
ALLAH'S "DIVINE INTERVENTION"? ISLAMIC STATE JIHADIS CHEER DESTRUCTION OF NOTRE DAME CATHEDRAL AS "RETRIBUTION & PUNISHMENT"

Notably, they didn’t claim responsibility. Contrary to media myth, the Islamic State does not have a record of claiming responsibility for jihad attacks in which it was not involved. But they’re cheering nonetheless: “It’s time to say goodbye to your oratory polytheism.”
The bemused pursuers of “Muslim-Christian dialogue” may find this puzzling, thinking that Muslims recognize Christians as fellow monotheists, and will dismiss it as “extremism.” However, the Qur’an itself, which any Christian involved in “interfaith dialogue” should read and study, but which none will, is quite clear that Christians are polytheists:
Those who believe in the divinity of Christ are unbelievers: “They have certainly disbelieved who say that Allah is Christ, the son of Mary.” — Qur’an 5:17 (cf. 5:72)
Jesus is not the Son of God and belief in the Trinity is “excess”: “O People of the Book! Do not exaggerate in your religion nor utter anything concerning Allah save the truth. The Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, was only a messenger of Allah, and his word which he conveyed to Mary, and a spirit from him. So believe in Allah and His messengers, and do not say ‘Three.’ Cease! It is better for you! Allah is only One Allah. It is far removed from his transcendent majesty that he should have a son. His is all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And Allah is sufficient as Defender.” — Qur’an 4:171
And: “It is not befitting to Allah that he should beget a son. Glory be to him! When He determines a matter, he only says to it, ‘Be,’ and it is.” — Qur’an 19:35
“Notre Dame FIRE: ISIS fanatics praise blaze and call it ‘RETRIBUTION,'” by Rebecca Perring, Express, April 16, 2019:
ISIS fanatics have posted a chilling message bidding “au revoir” to Notre Dame after the historic cathedral was ravaged by a devastating fire.
A poster created by an ISIS affiliated propaganda wing shows the cathedral engulfed by flames with the words “have a good day” and describes the inferno as “retribution and punishment”. According to the Terrorism Research & Analysis Consortium, the Al-Muntasir group created the poster, which reads: “Its construction began in the year 1163 and ended in 1345. It’s time to say goodbye to your oratory polytheism.”
This is not the first time the Al-Munatsir media organisation has revelled in terror attacks that have rocked France over the years.
The Paris prosecutor’s office have ruled out terror-related motives for now and say they are treating the fire as an accident….
Surge in Muslim migration sees spike in attacks on Christians in France
Investigators are still sifting through the debris at Notre Dame Cathedral, while reports have indicated the fire appears to be an accident. However, as One America's Pearson Sharp explains, the fire comes after a surge in violence against Christians and Catholic churches over the last few years.
“Allah est grand”: Muslims laugh, celebrate as blaze destroys Notre Dame cathedral during Holy Week

Jihadists may not have set the fire, but they’re certainly celebrating it. Many Muslims believe that the ruins and destruction of non-Muslim structures testifies to the truth of Islam, as the Qur’an suggests that the destroyed remnants of ancient non-Muslim civilizations are a sign of Allah’s punishment of those who rejected his truth: “Many were the Ways of Life that have passed away before you: travel through the earth, and see what was the end of those who rejected Truth.” (3:137)
“‘ALLAH EST GRAND’: Muslims laugh as blaze destroys Notre Dame cathedral during Holy Week,” by Kyle Olson, American Mirror, April 15, 2019 (thanks to the Geller Report):
A whole lot of people with Arab names are finding the historic Notre Dame ablaze very funny.
Twitter user Damien Rieu posted a video showing the amount of people responding to a video of the Paris church with a “laughing” face emoji.

Feces smeared on walls, intentional fires and theft plague churches across France as police figures show 875 of the country’s 42,258 churches were vandalized in 2018.
As Infowars’ Paul Joseph Watson reported just hours before the Notre Dame Cathedral caught fire, “The number of anti-religious attacks against Jews and Christians in France continues to rise, while attacks against Muslims are at their lowest for 9 years.”
The church attacks have some politicians saying France’s Christian heritage being threatened by “militant secularists.”
“Every day, at least two churches are profaned,” Republican MP MP Valerie Boyer stated.
Meanwhile, according to Newsweek, some French officials say they “don’t know why” the churches have been targeted.
While the cause of the Notre Dame inferno is still unknown, one hypothesis is Islamic arson, but MSM is stopping anyone who dares mention this from speaking out.
For example, Fox News’ Shepard Smith and Neil Cavuto both cut off guests who alluded to the possibility of the fire being intentional.
A TIME Magazine columnist, Christopher J. Hale, claimed a worker at the cathedral told him the blaze was purposely started.
The media is also covering up the celebration of the cathedral’s destruction on social media, claiming Infowars lied about people reacting with smiley face emojis despite video evidence.

Will we ever get to the bottom of the tragic destruction of the 800-year-old historic site, or will political correctness stop a real investigation from taking place?
Although Islamic terrorism and threats against Christians are on the rise in Europe, the MSM appears ready to censor any opinions that the fire at Notre Dame may have been a terror attack.
Alex breaks down how even french officials are now questioning the true motives of this tragedy.
However, TIME columnist Christopher J. Hale tweeted, “A Jesuit friend in Paris who works in #NotreDame told me cathedral staff said the fire was intentionally set.”
Hale deleted the tweet within minutes after it attracted attention.
The Saint Sulpice church in Paris was deliberately set on fire earlier this year, although media reports downplayed the story.

SHEP SMITH CUTS OFF FRENCH OFFICIAL FOR ALLUDING TO ISLAMIC ARSON OF NOTRE DAME CATHEDRAL
‘No sir. We’re not doing that here. Not now, not on my watch,’ snaps Smith
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research purposes:
Fox News host Shepard Smith abruptly cut off a French government official describing the burning of the Notre Dame cathedral after he suggested that the blaze may not have been accidental.
“I would tell you something, even if nobody died, it’s like a 9/11, the French 9/11,” French official Philippe Karsenty said of the historic cathedral’s burning on Monday.
“And it’s a big shock. I mean, this church was there for more than 850 years, even the Nazis didn’t dare to destroy it.”
Karsenty then explained the routine Islamic attacks against churches throughout France, and alluded that the media is spreading the “politically correct” narrative that the cathedral’s burning is accidental before being suddenly cut off by Smith.
“And you need to know that for the past year we’ve had churches desecrated each and every week in France. All over France. Of course you will hear the stories about the political correctness which will tell you that it’s probably an accident — ”
“Sir? Sir. Sir. We’re not going to speculate here of the cause of something which we don’t know,” Smith said.
“I’m just telling you something, we need to be ready — ” Karsenty began.
“No sir. We’re not doing that here. Not now, not on my watch,” Smith snapped.
