Spencer: Did a Muslim Screaming “Allahu Akbar” Disrupt the Pentecost Mass in a French Cathedral?

Geller Report: According to a French-language report in Riposte catholique, it happened on May 20, Pentecost Sunday for Roman Catholics, in Saints Peter and Paul Cathedral in Nantes, France: a Muslim grabbed the microphone during the sermon by Bishop Jean-Paul James and screamed “Allahu akbar.”

However, in yet another example of dhimmitude and willful ignorance from a Catholic bishop, Catholic officials deny that the intruder said “Allahu akbar” at all. Presse Océan reported:

It took only one publication that was wrong, so that the rumor remains on the web: a man tore the microphone out of the hands of the bishop of Nantes on Sunday, in the middle of the solemn Mass of Pentecost, to shout “Allahu akbar” in the cathedral “packed to the rafters.” Relayed several hundred times over the Internet, what is then presented as an “info” from a “very reliable source” has begun to fuel fantasies. However, it cannot stand up to the “objectivity of the facts.” Father Benoît Bertrand, Vicar General of the Diocese of Nantes, was “on the right” of Bishop Jean-Paul James when a man was “on the podium.” It was “about 10:30 am,” and the bishop began his homily in front of “1,500 to 2,000 people […] The man grabbed the microphone and made remarks in a foreign language. He did not shout ‘Allahu akbar’ at all, says the vicar. Clinging to the microphone, he was determined to speak and seemed especially extremely fragile psychologically […] There are always malicious people who seek to fuel this kind of rumor and excite people’s minds when they should rather seek to calm them. It is not a matter of being naive, we remain vigilant in the national context, but everyone must stick to the reality and the objectivity of the facts.”

So it didn’t happen, right? Not so fast. Journalist Daniel Hamiche spoke to people who were in the cathedral for Pentecost Mass, and reported: MORE HERE
