(European Conservative) With the start of the new school year, Islamist threats are once again hovering over French schools, according to two successive memos issued by the Inter-ministerial Committee for the Prevention of Delinquency and Radicalisation and Territorial Intelligence, one dated August 27th and the other, September 16th.
The documents that were reviewed by BFMTV reveal that a certain number of Islamist messages are circulating on social media to incite pupils of the Muslim faith to defy the principle of secularism at school. The instructions are very diverse and come from anonymous accounts created on TikTok or Twitter, and Islamist influencers. Encouragement to wear clothes that show a religious affiliation at school; incitement to prayer within the school; blackmail using photos of young Muslim women being unveiled; deliberately seeking conflicts between educational staff and pupils have all become opportunities to bring a fundamentalist Muslim presence to life in school and to defy authority.
