Muslims Celebrate Bastille Day: 80 Dead, 68 Injured
“The worst tragedy in the history of Nice” – but many more are to come.
July 15, 2016 Robert Spencer
The truck was loaded with explosives and hand grenades as it plowed into a crowd celebrating Bastille Day in Nice, France, Thursday night. It was no accident: Nice authorities emphasized
that it was a terror attack, which was fairly clear already from the
fact that the driver exchanged gunfire with police after he rammed into
the crowd.
At least eighty people are dead and 68 wounded, and Nice Mayor Christian Estrosi calls it “the worst tragedy in the history of Nice.” But given the harsh realities of the contemporary world, it probably won’t be the worst for long.
Jihadis have had their eyes on France for quite some time. The Islamic State issued this call in September 2014:
... In reality, there is no need for an investigation, because the jihadi’s motive is obvious. There needs to be an admission that we are in a full-scale war -- not just lip-service as French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve offers, but a genuine acknowledgment, followed by a genuine war footing, and an end to the weepy memorials, empty condemnations, and po-faced get-nowhere investigations. This is not crime. This is war.

Jihadis have had their eyes on France for quite some time. The Islamic State issued this call in September 2014:
So O muwahhid, do not let this battle pass you by wherever you may be.
You must strike the soldiers, patrons, and troops of the tawaghit.
Strike their police, security, and intelligence members, as well as
their treacherous agents. Destroy their beds. Embitter their lives for
them and busy them with themselves. If you can kill a disbelieving
American or European — especially the spiteful and filthy French — or an
Australian, or a Canadian, or any other disbeliever from the
disbelievers waging war, including the citizens of the countries that
entered into a coalition against the Islamic State, then rely upon
Allah, and kill him in any manner or way however it may be….If you are
not able to find an IED or a bullet, then single out the disbelieving
American, Frenchman, or any of their allies. Smash his head with a rock,
or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car, or throw
him down from a high place, or choke him, or poison him….
Yes, “run him over with your car.” ...... In reality, there is no need for an investigation, because the jihadi’s motive is obvious. There needs to be an admission that we are in a full-scale war -- not just lip-service as French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve offers, but a genuine acknowledgment, followed by a genuine war footing, and an end to the weepy memorials, empty condemnations, and po-faced get-nowhere investigations.
