Hat tip Francois DeSouche
On Saturday, 5 male teenagers stormed into a church in Avignon telling the priest at the door they wanted to convert to Christianity. Once inside, they shouted, "Allahu Akhbar" repeatedly and threatened to set fire to the church before fleeing.
One of the myriad of problems that France is having with its Muslim population is the desecration of Christian churches, including fires and even the murder of priests. France is a traditionally Christian country, but many (not all) of its Muslim residents have no respect for the predominant religion of the nation. Can you imagine a non-Muslim in a Muslim country doing this in a mosque?
The below article from Valuers Actuelles is translated by Fousesquawk. In addition, Francois Desouche also posted an article in La Provence which reports that the youths also shouted, "Jesus, we f... you".
