France: Islamists threaten to behead journalist Ophelie Meunier

She faces life-threats after the screening of a documentary on the influence of radicalized Islam in French society

Newsroom January 31 07:51

 

A group of policemen is following like a the shadow the French journalist Ophelie Meunier in the last hours, as after the presentation of a documentary about radicalized Islam, she is receiving threats for her life. Ophelie, 34, recently presented a documentary, entitled “Zone Interdite” (trnslt. “Restricted zone”), about how radical Islam has influenced French society.

The documentary shows a restaurant where women are given cabins to eat separately from men and a toy store that sells faceless dolls to comply with strict Islamic interpretations that forbid the depiction of facial features.

In a clip posted on Zone Interdite’s official Twitter page, radical Islam expert Bernard Rougier holds the faceless dolls and teddy bears as he explains: “It’s a way to show that from childhood, you will be better Muslim than others and implies that others are not good or true Muslims. And so is the introduction of an ideological principle into the world of childhood … in that sense it is quite disturbing, yes”, he says.

The video with the hidden camera shows the secret reporter going to the shops that sell the dolls, which also offer books with the same pictures.

She also spoke with Amine Elbahi, 26, a Muslim lawyer from Roubaix who helped uncover the publicly funded educational institution that received 53,000 Euros to teach poor children, but was accused of spreading Islamic teachings. Elbahi spoke out against the influence of radical Islam in the film and has now been described as an “infidel” and is threatened with beheading. “I am being threatened with beheading, tearing apart, attacking, because I made a truthful speech with my face uncovered, and specifically for the inaction of the mayor of my community”, Elbahi said.

À Roubaix, certains magasins de jouets vendent des poupées sans visage afin de respecter une version ultra-radicale de l’Islam qui interdit la représentation des êtres humains.

Following the screening of the documentary in question, the French authorities closed down the restaurant “Le Familial” which had secluded areas for Muslim women to eat alone. The news that the journalist has been threatened has caused outrage in France, where many believe that the secularism on which modern democracy was founded is threatened by religious ideologies introduced by immigrants from abroad.

Eric Zemour, a right-wing commentator and opponent of Macron, rushed to support Meunier after it was revealed she had been threatened. “Ophelie is in mortal danger”, he wrote on Twitter on Saturday as the documentary began to garner widespread attention. “This happens when you show the French the Islamization of our country. Millions of patriots thank her for her courage”.
