| French lawmakers adopt anti-terror bill 'at expense of' civil liberties |
| 2017-10-04 |
| [Iran Press TV] The French parliament has overwhelmingly adopted a new controversial counterterrorism bill, which will boost police surveillance powers and make it easier to close religious centers, as the European country is under a nearly two-year-old state of emergency. Legislators in La Belle France’s lower house of parliament on Tuesday approved the bill by 415 votes to 127, with 19 abstentions, two days after a suspected member of the ISIS Takfiri ...an adherent of takfir wal hijra, an offshoot of Salafism that regards everybody who doesn't agree with them as apostates who must be killed... terrorist group stabbed to death two young women at a train station in the Mediterranean port city of Marseille. The bill encountered little resistance from a nation traumatized by a string of terror attacks by ISIS in recent years. However, if you can't say something nice about a person some juicy gossip will go well... the French left and right groups strongly criticized the law, arguing it would lead to the infringement of civil freedoms. "Lawmakers realize that today’s threat is serious and that we must protect ourselves against terrorists. This must be done in a way that balances security and freedom," Interior Minister Gerard Collomb told news hounds after the vote, adding, "This text will help protect French people." He also described La Belle France as being "still in a state of war" as authorities struggle to eliminate the threat posed by foreign bully boyz and home-grown bully boys. Collomb called the anti-terror bill a "lasting response to a lasting threat." |

| #1 The bill encountered little resistance from a nation traumatized by a string of terror attacks by ISIS in recent years. Another reason the new class loves Muslims so much? |
