You weren't allowed to hear about these, talk about these, or even think about these terrorist attacks, especially the one that happened in Europe, because if you did you might add to the anti-immigrant sentiment that is sweeping that region as of recent.
But for the sake of freedom of speech, here you go:
First off, Paris:
A guy who pledges allegiance to ISIS stabbed three people at the Eiffel Tower.
A man armed with a knife and a hammer killed a German tourist and left two people, including a British man, wounded near the Eiffel Tower in Paris late on Saturday in what President Emmanuel Macron called "a terrorist attack".
A 26-year-old suspect, a French national arrested after the attack, had pledged allegiance to Islamic State in a video recorded beforehand, anti-terrorism Prosecutor Jean-Francois Ricard said on Sunday.
The suspect had told police he was angry about the situation in Gaza and the fact that "so many Muslims are dying in Afghanistan and in Palestine," Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said …
The suspect had in 2016 been sentenced to four years in prison for planning another attack, and had been on the French security services' watch list, Darmanin said. He was also known for having psychiatric disorders, Darmanin added.
I hate that we're not allowed to talk about how the guys stabbing people tend to scream "Allahu Akbar" beforehand. They've gotta put the mental illness spin in there to couch it. We wouldn't want any anti-immigrant sentiment to appear due to real things that happen. That would be bad.
Second story is out of the Philippines where a bomb went off in a Catholic church, killing at least four people.
A powerful explosion believed caused by a bomb ripped through a Catholic Mass and killed at least four people and wounded dozens of others Sunday in a predominantly Muslim city in the southern Philippines, officials said.
The morning Mass was underway in a gymnasium at the state-run Mindanao State University in Marawi City when the explosion happened, causing panic among dozens of students and teachers and leaving the victims bloodied and sprawled on the ground, said Taha Mandangan, the security chief of the state-run campus.
At least two of the wounded were fighting for their lives, Mandangan said …
Regional military commander Maj. Gen. Gabriel Viray III said at least four people were killed by the explosion, including three women, and 50 others were brought to two hospitals for treatment of mostly minor injuries.
Marawi City, "a predominantly Muslim city in the southern Philippines." Dare I even go there with this one? I mean, it's a Catholic church. I guess I'll not go full anti-immigrant on this one, but what I will say is this Israel-Palestine conflict seems to be igniting a holy war of sorts on a global scale, which to me is quite scary.
A third potential attack was foiled in Germany last week, which aimed to attack a Christmas event.
Definitely don't notice any patterns. That would be wrong.
So yeah, you won't be hearing much on these attacks from the big corporate media companies. Yet I bet they'll be covering January 6th like they always do.
Alright, make sure, if you're European, you don't talk about these attacks, okay?
