Yet another convert to Islam somehow gets the crazy idea that his new religion, which everyone in the Western world knows is peaceful, teaches warfare against unbelievers. Authorities persist in showing no interest whatsoever in why this keeps happening.
“15 years in prison for a former gendarme advocating jihadism,” translated from “15 ans de réclusion pour un ancien gendarme prônant le djihadisme,” Le Figaro, July 1, 2022 (thanks to Medforth):
The special assize court of Paris sentenced on Friday July 1 to fifteen years of criminal imprisonment, accompanied by a two-thirds security period, a 27-year-old former gendarme prosecuted for having advocated armed jihad in Western countries.
The young man, judged for participation in a terrorist association of criminals with a view to the preparation of one or more crimes of attack on persons, will also have to comply with a socio-judicial follow-up (SSJ) of five years to the outcome of his sentence. Dylan Toussaint was spotted by the General Directorate of Internal Security (DGSI) at the end of 2017 because of his suspicious activities on social networks.
Converted to Islam
Under various pseudonyms, he advocated “the ideology of Islamist terrorist groups, in particular the Islamic State organization” and encouraged “the commission of violent acts in Western countries,” noted the prosecution. He was arrested in January 2018 “in view of the risk of the imminence of a possible violent act”. The young man had trained as a student policeman during which he had been trained in the handling of weapons. Assigned to the Lunel brigade (Hérault) in July 2017, he resigned two months later. During his interrogations, the young man indicated that he had converted to Islam in 2014 at the age of 20: “I had difficult times (…) I found something to be well.”He also told investigators that the war in Syria had prompted him to take an interest in jihadist groups, but also assured that he had never intended to go to the area and explained that he had watched videos of exactions out of unhealthy curiosity. “I don’t like killings,” he said. Dylan Toussaint finally admitted having made “violent remarks” and “talked about plans for attacks” on Telegram with “brothers” – including an undercover agent from the DGSI whom he allegedly asked how to obtain weapons – but that this was “not serious.” During further questioning, he admitted that the idea of acting out. “It may have crossed my mind for a thousandth of a second,” he defended himself.
The prosecution claimed that, during searches of his mother’s home, investigators discovered a “pipe-bomb” type improvised explosive device which, according to the police, was operational and could have caused injuries that were more or less important, or even be lethal within a radius of ten meters.

Ex-policeman Dylan Toussaint became convinced that JIHADISM Is the right ideology. He is motivated by JIHADISM.
Jihadism is the ideology that claims that all Muslims are 1) required to conduct jihad to the extent of their ability and 2) that conducting jihad is the most important work of a Muslim.
Jihadism is actually a core teaching of Islam that is codified in Sharia law, and thus, jihadism is authentic, mainstream, canonical Islam, rather than a deviation or aberration or fringe phenomenon.
In spite of mainstream Islam’s canonized endorsement of jihadism, most Western elites and politicians remain uninformed about this. They are under the false assumption that jihadism is a deviation from standard, canonical Islam, but nothing is further from the truth.
Jihadism is endorsed by all branches of Islam to a stronger or lesser degree. Jihadism is based on the words of Allah, the words of Mohammed, and the words of Islam’s classical scholars, so nothing could be more Islamic than JIHADISM.
