Another story you won’t hear reported in the mainstream media

Reader Zendo Deb pointed me to minor mainstream coverage of this story here and here. I surprised Reuters wrote about it, and even more surprised the Washington Post ran their article. But hey, I’m sometimes surprised I get out of bed and go to work every day. Surprising things happen.
Jew tortured, murdered by Islamic gang in Paris

Another headline you didn’t read. Why? I don’t know. Because the mainstream media doesn’t consider it newsworthy, or purposefully ignores some stories and runs others. You decide which one is the correct answer.

I found the story on a blog. I could find it only one other place - a Jewish publication.

While three of the 13 people arrested have been indicted, French police were still hunting for Youssef Fofana, the 26-yar-old black Muslim African man, considered as the mastermind of the kidnapping ring suspected of using charming women to lure Ilan Halimi to his death.

Fofana, who nicknames himself “Brain of Barbarians, is described as “extremely dangerous.”

The gang is suspected of abducting the 23-year-old Parisian, and subjecting him to horrific tortures before dumping his naked and mutilated body in the street near a suburban train station last Monday.

Handcuffed, gagged and covered in burns and torture marks, he died on the way to hospital.

Twelve suspects, aged 17 to 32, were held in overnight raids in the south Paris suburbs, most on a housing estate in Bagneux, while a 13th was arrested in Belgium, Paris state prosecutor Jean-Claude Marin told a press conference on Friday.

Halimi went missing in late January after agreeing to a date with an
unknown woman who approached him at his workplace.

Using beautiful women as “bait”, the gang are thought to have attempted six or seven other botched kidnappings, Marin said.

This can be the future. Or you can actively work to ensure we learn to live together. The choice remains yours.
