Islamic Crime has been Cancelled
Less than 24 hours ago, Mickael Harpon, an employee of the French police force, brutally murdered four
people inside the police headquarters in Paris, using a ceramic knife he had smuggled into the building.
Once upon a time, when journalism existed and the public were not treated as witless morons, the mass-murder of four cops at police HQ in the capital of France would have been ultra-sensational must-read headline news. Every conceivable detail of the brutal slaughter would already have been examined at length and from every possible angle. Foremost among the examiners would have been the diligent, hard-working sleuths who reported for the British Broadcasting Company, the most respected source of news anywhere on earth.
That, however, was The Old World, where knife-wielding psycopathic murderers didn't have to compete for attention with riveting headlines like : "Why Australia is evacuating fish" and "selfie museum aims to make art more enticing."
Welcome to the BBC World News website, October 3rd 2019...
If you look carefully, you will find that the eighth story on the BBC's world news roundup has the rather uninformative headline : "Employee kills four with knife at Paris Police HQ."
Clicking in to the story, we learn that "A motive for the attack remains unclear. However, police union officials have suggested the attacker may have been involved in a workplace dispute."
I must say, the BBC has a gift for understatement. Call me mister picky, but 'a workplace dispute' doesn't often result in someone butchering four co-workers with a cunningly concealed knife. As for the motive remaining unclear, I feel a teeny weeny bit of speculation might be in order. Has the BBC erased the last four years of appalling Islamist murders in Paris from its collective memory? Maybe I'm just gifted with second sight, but within moments of hearing that four cops had been killed with a ceramic knife (obviously chosen to deceive metal-detectors) I thought -Islamist maniac, Muslim immigrant.
Perhaps I should apply for work as a BBC reporter. Because lo and behold, would you believe it, within a few short hours the "news" finally limped out that mister Harpon was (a) a native of the faraway French colony of Martinique in the West Indies and (b) converted to Islam 18 months ago.
But I'm flattering myself -of course I won't be employed by the BBC. Because at the BBC, the word Islam must never appear in a headline in any negative context. And me, being the dumb excuse for a reporter that I am, I would be unable to resist pointing out that the motive for this disgusting atrocity (the latest in a long series of similar atrocities) was undoubtedly Islamic extremism.

Like a snail dragging a wardrobe, the truth of this Parisian tale creeps and seeps out a millimetre at a time. It's now 10 a.m. and Mister Harpon, we hear, had indeed been in a 'workplace dispute' recently. It turns out he was less than willing to accept orders from female senior staff. What, I wonder, could possibly lie behind this curiously un-PC attitude? Could it perchance be the well-known unyielding misogyny that commands male Islamic extremists to treat all women like farm animals?
Spoiler alert - you bet it was.
In fairness to the gods of reliable truthiness, by 11 a.m. the BBC had promoted Harpon's killing spree to fourth from eighth in the 'world news' hit parade, but only after announcing he had (allegedly) endured a 'psychotic fit' prior to slaughtering four of his colleagues. Naturally, we can now expect Harpon's Islamist frenzy to be quickly re-framed as a 'mental health issue'. The actual underlying cause of these murders-a medieval religious cult that glorifies death- must not be mentioned.
It's a simple process, you see. The long-anticipated Muslim majority in Europe still needs another twenty years to be completed. Until then, all and any suggestion that Islam itself carries an extremist cult of violence and jihad within its body - well, that's just not up for discussion. Where murder, gang-rape, bombs, knives, misogyny and homophobia are concerned, Islamic crime has been cancelled. It must be true. It says so on the BBC.
