An English teacher sparked outrage across France today after calling for her pupils to observe a minute’s silence for Toulouse serial killer Mohammed Merah.
In disturbing scenes at Gustave Flaubert High School in Rouen, Normandy, Lorraine Collin, 56, described the 23-year-old who murdered seven including three children as himself being the ‘victim of an unhappy childhood’.
This prompted up to 15 pupils aged between 17 and 18 to storm out of their classroom and report Ms Collin to their headmaster.
Luc Chatel, France’s Education Minister, called for Ms Collin to be ‘suspended immediately’, saying he ‘condemned this unspeakable behaviour without reservation’.
It came as Merah’s elder brother said he was ‘very proud’ of what his brother had done, hailing him as someone who fought for what he believed in.
Merah was gunned down by special forces police yesterday after three separate attacks which saw four die at a Jewish school, along with three soldiers from ethnic minorities who had fought in Afghanistan.Ms Collin drew attention to the fact that Merah was from a disadvantaged French-Algerian immigrant background and had been drawn to Islamic extremism while serving a prison sentence.
Merah said he had shot three youngsters at the Jewish school in Toulouse on Monday in revenge for Palestinian children killed by the Israeli Army.
What a load of crap!! There is NO excuse for what this sub-human pond scum did. To ask for a moment of silence for this terrorist is beyond inexcusable.
I had to wonder if there were also moments of silence for each of his murder victims.
Were there prayers for all the injured police who he shot at?
In the UK things are in flux.
One Muslim commenter at the link points out that Islam is not supposed to be like this.
That it would be proper (in Islam) for a nurse to quit his praying and immediately help an injured patient.
those story turn my blood each time, and I tell myself we would have to be stone blind and deft to think there is just a minor problem because of the, or this or that person has an excuse blah blah blah,
dam it’s all over the world where they have landed, and they infiltrated in all sector of society,
on all steps of the ladder, we have some with the courage to stand up and expose the eminent danger
they are also from all over the world writing books and making speech in a multitude of TONGUE,
and see how they are ridicules by CORRUPT MEDIAS AND VILE COMEDIANS SEEM TO BE COMING STRAIGHT FROM HELL, AND THE TOLERANT PEOPLE WHICH ARE AFRAID TO FEEL RACIST AND HURT THEIR FEELING STAY SILENT APART OF THOSE CRYING IN THE HUMAN DESERT;
where was it written THE GOOD ALWAYS PREVAIL? YES BUT BUT BUT IN THIS CASE,IT’S APPARENT
THE GOOD IS LOOSING GROUND, because the foundation
is weakening, from underneath
