n Paris, hostile Muslims regularly demonstrate their thuggish power by blocking public streets for their Friday prayers, even though such behavior is illegal. The French police know what’s going on, but ignore it to avoid trouble.

You know what would happen cop-wise if hundreds of Presbyterians stopped traffic in the middle of a major city, but Muslims get special treatment because they are known to be touchy to the max, easily roused to violence.

”Islamization’ of Paris a Warning to the West, CBN, September 1, 2010

PARIS — Friday in Paris. A hidden camera shows streets blocked by huge crowds of Muslim worshippers and enforced by a private security force.

This is all illegal in France: the public worship, the blocked streets, and the private security. But the police have been ordered not to intervene.

It shows that even though some in the French government want to get tough with Muslims and ban the burqa, other parts of the French government continue to give Islam a privileged status.

An ordinary French citizen who has been watching the Islamization of Paris decided that the world needed to see what was happening to his city. He used a hidden camera to start posting videos on YouTube. His life has been threatened and so he uses the alias of ”Maxime Lepante.”

Lepante’s View

His camera shows that Muslims ”are blocking the streets with barriers. They are praying on the ground. And the inhabitants of this district cannot leave their homes, nor go into their homes during those prayers.”

”The Muslims taking over those streets do not have any authorization. They do not go to the police headquarters, so it’s completely illegal,” he says.

Yes, French authorities are spineless weenies. France’s only hope is the further activation of concerned citizens. A grassroots movement is building, based on street protests where Facebook-informed citizens show up with annoying-to-Muslims wine and pork (events which police have tried to block thus far – see Sharia France a Step Closer, through Food).

Continuing with Islamization of Paris…

But even if many government elites are in France are in denial over Islam, the people in the streets increasingly are not. Some have become fed up with what they see as the growing Islamization of France.

They’ve started staging pork and wine ”aperitifs,” or cocktail parties in the street. They’re patriotic demonstrations meant to strike back against Islam. Another national demonstration is planned for Saturday, Sept. 4.

I turned to GalliaWatch for details of the anti-sharia eat-ins and wasn’t disappointed:

September 4, 2010: Grand Apertif Republicain, GalliaWatch Blog, August 31, 2010

The BIG news this week will be the latest Ap?©ro organized by Riposte La??que. If you were not around a few months ago and need some filling in, an ”ap?©ro”, short for ”ap?©ritif”, is like a before-dinner cocktail, but in this context it has taken on the aspect of a major demonstration against the Islamization of France and for the values of the Republic. The ”ap?©ro” last June 18 was banned by the authorities from its original meeting place in order not to anger the neighborhood’s ruling Muslims, and moved to the Champs-Elys?©es. Also banned was the drinking of wine, with grape juice serving as a sorry substitute. However, sausages were allowed. The point of wine and sausage was to protest the subversion by Islam of French civilization, including the food and drinks we all associate with France (click Ap?©ro label below for more information).

Last June’s Ap?©ro put the very republican website Riposte La??que on the map, and the outdoor demonstration made headlines all over Europe, with other countries also organizing their own version of a patriotic picnic.

One of the major contributors to Riposte La??que, Maxime L?©pante, will be in the United States during the whole month of September, meeting with the organizers of the opposition to the Ground Zero mosque (another major event that coincides with France’s Ap?©ro). L?©pante is the now-famous photographer who took numerous photos of Muslims praying on Friday afternoon in the streets of the 18th arrondissement of Paris (click Barb?¨s label below for a review).

No question, hostile Muslims are energized with visions of an Islamic Europe to be followed by a Sharia USA. We need to be more offensive to protect Western freedoms.

Ending Muslim immigration would be a fine place to start.
