| Day after attacks, French Muslims fear backlash: 'Better to be mistaken for a Jew' |
| 2015-11-16 |
| [Jpost] "The way people look at us will change again, and not for the better ... Sometimes it's preferable to be mistaken for a Jew and not a Muslim because then there are fewer problems." For the second time this year La Belle France's Muslims have seen carnage brought to the streets of Gay Paree by a few radical Islamists and fear that they will now suffer as a consequence. The shocking wave of violence on Friday, when heavily armed |

| #17 I'm to the point where I think a good hard backlash might be the best thing. Have the rest of the population come down hard on Muslims while the authorities turn their backs for a while and then see what life is like. |

| #16 Culture? You misspelled "backward, worthless, loser ideas," Rambler. |

| #15 Then LEAVE. Move to the moslem shithole of your choice. We owe you nothing. You on the other hand owe US much. |

| #14 You know, if Muslims want to avoid backlash after one these attacks, they could help by speaking out BEFORE an attack occurs. How many Muslims have been killed or even seriously hurt because of the attack? In other words, STFU! |

| #13 But, Barbara, that would mean giving up their culture! |

| #12 "When you look like a Muslim, it's tough" Here's a weird idea that just might work: Try looking like - and ACTING like - an actual FRENCH CITIZEN. Or get out. |

| #11 Yeah, so far the worldwide backlash has been one Sikh in the US killed by a moron after 9/11. Anyone that falls for the 'don't hit us back' nonsense should have their head examined. |

| #10 Muslim community leaders promptly denounced the massacre... That's what Arafat used to do every time a bomb went off in Israel. But somehow the bombs kept going off...until the Israelis took action. |

| #9 I'll believe it when they stop funding it and actively oppose it. I'm not holding my breath. |

| #8 Considering there are huge no go areas in Paris where if you aren't a muslim, you will get beat up or killed, I have very little sympathy for these barbarians. The Spanish solution would be the best. |

| #7 I will believe that Islam is a religion of peace when the imams and other Muslim leaders condemn attacks like this unequivocally, not by ending it with "please don't hurt us". |

| #5 No condemnation for the act itself... No sorrow or regret for the victims... Just whining about how we shouldn't blame Islam or, by extension, the terrorists... F-k em... |

| #4 Outside the Great Mosque of Paris, It's "Pay no attention to meeee!" Royaume Pacifique? Rousseau's lyin' sheikh Purrs, "Non a l'islamophobie!" |

| #3 "Islamophobia exists and should be dealt with, institutionally and by the politicians." I.e. Sharia speech restrictions should be imposed on non-Muslims in Western nations. |
